"NEVER SAY DIE." Newberry Has a Chance to Grc Chamber of Commerce Presents a Plan. "In unity there is strength." Wh the citizens of a town pull togeth and pull wisely, a mei'e incident si; as scarcity of labor or a depress cotton market will not absorb 1 whole thought and attention. Ne berry must not neglect her duty herself?the duty to grow in popu tion, in business facilities, and civic righteousness. Population < not increase until more houses hz been built, hence the first duty is^ 'begin building. The Chamber of Commerce ] worked out a plan of building wh if carried out by citizens 01 JNewo ry will solve the housing problem, is suggested that a corporation formed with a capital stock of $5 000 for the purpose of building once 25 low to medium priced, m< era bugalows for sale or rent. 1 demand for houses is such that m of them could be sold before com]: tion> henCe a paid in capital of $5 000 would be sufficient to buy 1 lots, put in sewerage and water, a pay construction costs until sa could be made. This plan enables a few men accomplish a great improvement Newberry. If ten men were to j in $5,000 apiece, they could prov the 25 bungalows, and make a pr< '-/> on. the transaction. Ten men wo iDg independently (in case ten coi be found), jeach building one hou probably would have to invest ab< i?' $5,000 each and the total number houses resulting would be only t whereas, the ten men by pool: ' their resources conld build 25 hous It is stated on good authority tl 25 bungalows can be built to sell $S,500 to $4,000. Undoubtedly would not be difficult to sell 25 bi paJowr at sueh nrices. The cost | labor and materials is declining, w indications that laborers soon will stearching for employment.

Secretly Chamber of Commerce Further "wobbling" upon LEAGUE ISS1 Governor Cox * Vigorously Attai Speeches of Harding, Taft and Johnson. Etevs . * '* ? r v ^ s. Baltimore, .Oct. 21.?Goveri Cox. of > Ohio, in addressing a lai audience at the Armory here tonig . pounced upon and lashed vigorou the league of nations speeches y terday of Senator Harding, Fora President Taft and Senator Johns of California, declaring that tl evidenced further "wobbling" -Senator Harding upon the league sfte. * * At .the. same time the Democra presidential can (J date further 'e "~?i '1_ A ? - 1 i - _ J I pnasizea.ms league policies, aeci ing J that "helpful" reservatu should .be a prerequisite to ratifi i>. , ^T'TSyery o,ne who is against ' league is against me," Governor C declared, insisting that Sena Harding, his Republican adversa stands for "scrapping" the leag The governor also asserted that cause of league differences betw< powerful Republican groups, election of Senator Harding co not bring ratification. "It is this league of nations or league qf nations" was another d trine .laid down by the Democrs nominee, speaking from the platfoi where President Wilson was no nated eight years ago. The gov nor asserted, quoting Judge Tf that a new peace association of tions was impossible. Flaying yesterday's league p nouncements by Senator Hardi Mr. Taft and Senator Johnson, G ernor Cox said that Judge Taft pressed confidence that Sena Harding would cause ratification i that Senator Johnson expres equal assurance that Mr. Hard would reject the league. Only Harding Can Tell. "Either Johnson or Taft is wron the governor declared, "and o Senator Harding can tell the Ami can people which one is wrong. Senator Harding has not given a ] vate assurance to both men, then declarations are so ambiguous t 'Taft interprets them one way ? J Johnson another. It is the duty of Senator Harding to adv;<?e the w. ! American people frankly who is right?Johnson or Taft. If he fails to do it he may be regarded as an imposter, deliberately seeking to delen ceive the American people." er. The league here and also at Wiltcli | mington, Del., where the governor >ed 1 made his only other address today, :he ! virtually was his sole topic. His Wil >w-! mington audicnce hissed the names to j of Senator Harding when he referred ila- j to the Republican nominee's signain j ture to the "round robin," and Senaran j tor Lodge of Massachusetts whom tve{the governor again denounced "as to | the greatest conspirator ... in i history." Large crowds at both Wiliasimin&ton and Baltimore cheered the jch | Democratic candidate. er_ j Referring to yesterday's speeches It j by Mr. Taft and Senator Johnson, be j Governor Cox told his audience to,q . | night that today's papers carried a at headline regarding the California 0(j_ j senator's address as follows: "In! tiefc T-T n y*A i >-) rr Poio/>tofl T.OQ cril Ck " ."he i iiuivi'"6 0S^.jThat over Judge Taft's the governor^ jjg.isaid read, "Harding Favors League (q _ Says Taft." the "Senator Johnson and Senator ] in(j Borah are men of independent mind jes and independent action," said the j governor. "They are against any association of nations and they are sup. porting Senator Harding because, they know with his election the lea-, :gue of nations or any league can jilt never be ratified. ^ ! , "It is amazing that men like Elihu ^ ~ Root and William Howard Taft and their assistants among the eminent 1S6 ,? I ' uro-leaeue Republicans longer justi-i ^ fy their support of Senator Harding j in the face of the facts unless theyi gn i . ' will frankly say they put party obli-i l^f gations ahead of their duty to con-j science." ^at That Senator Harding with his *} speech yesterday now had taken 1*1 different league positions was asseotin" ed by Governor Cox. The senator yesterday, hir opponent declared, ftk "now restates his position as that of the day on which he accepted the us nomination on the platform which im" 'said the league has signally failed.' " :w~. Forty-three Nations. md "The answer to that," the goverlT_ q [fl>-.nor continued, "is that there are already 43 nations members of that aia lea? . ^ and that it as an organization Iso js ii?funtioning." thfc Referring to Senator Harding's md offer of a "reward" to any one demonstrating that he had taken ion variaiit league positions Governor fry Cox said he was present "to show ter how he- has attempted to wiggle and be wobble his way into the presidency ard to claim that reward not for myrelf but for the people of America." i* Senator Harding, the governor declared ironically, was complaining because he was misunderstood.
