"To Every Employer:
1. This agreement is part of a
nation-wide plan to raise wages*
create employment, and thus increase
put chasing power and testoie busi
ness. That plan depends wholly on
united action by all employers. For
this reason I ask you, as an employer,
to do your part by signing.
2. If it turns out that ?he general
agreement bears unfairly on any
group of employers they can have
that straightened out "by presenting
promptly their proposed Code of Fair
Competition.

Coming Satur^y
BILLROY'S COMEDIANS
COMING- SAT? AUGUST 5
Keeping only the favoritea* and
principle players, Billroy*s Comedians
"The Greatest Show on Earth for the
Money," which plays here Saturday,
August 6, bring to Camden the great*
est array of musical comedy talent
that this wonderful show has ever
carried. Instead of playing a week's
engagement they will play for one
night only and have combined a full
week's entertainment into one night
of grand, glorious fun and beautiful
girls, girls, girls! The play itself Is
a brand new one, never ofered here
before and all the vaudeville acts are
new. Bob Fisher and his Palais Roy
ale Band, "The Hottest Music since
Nero Fiddled," has been enlarged ana
will play a thirty minute concert ber
fore the regular show. The Billroy
management states they are carrying
so many girls you "can't count 'em
all" and fifteen vaudeville acts, in
cluding "Rusty" Scott, one of Ameri
ca's greatest blackface comedians and
late A1 G. Field minstrel star. An
other big feature is Norman Hinkle,
"The Whispering . Troubadour/*
known to practically all radio fans.
Johnny Finch, buck and wing dancer,
a girl harmony singing act, musical
acts, novelty acts, dancing acts and
the famous Billroy Beauty Chorus
are with the show this year, also the
two leading favorites, Miss Marion
Roberts and handsome Wayne Bart
lett. A valuable new addition to the
show this season is Jimmy Stone,
Broadway musical comedy star. Miss
Patsy Ly9n8, "The Queen of Blues
Singers," is also with the show, as is
Kitty Watkins, last year's favorite
toe dancer. All in all, there are sixty
five people with the show and where
as space does not permit us to list all
the attractions with the show, we are
sincere in our belief that those who
attend Billroy's Comedians in their
big tent theatre here next Saturday,
August B will be delightfully sur
prised and royally entertained
Furthermore, all ladies accompanied
by one paid adult ticket will be ad
mited absolutely free. The big tent
will be pitched at Broad street, rear
of Post Office.

The United States Government has sounded the call,
by giving a direct grant to the States, of at least four
hundred million dollars for highway improvement.
This is part of a vast program of public works to
spread national employment and to stimulate business.
This work will be done through your own State
Highway Department. The Federal Government asks
no return except that the money be expended wisely ?
that the improvements be permanent, substan
tially built and of a type that gives men work.
concrete roads meet every specification. They
are permanent. Maintenance cost is much less than
that of any other type. They give you the greatest
driving safety, convenience and comfort. They cost
leps to drive over ? saving you gas, tires, repairs and
depreciation. They will give work to men now on
doles, in your community. Money will flow across the
counters of home stores.
Insist on CONCRETE fot your roads ? get the
moat and the best road for the money ? and
the maximum employment for labor!

REMOVAL OF COTTON IS NOW
UNDER WAY IN CAROLINA
FIELDS
Clemson College, July 24. ? Actual
destruction of cotton as a result of
the successful cotton acreage reduc
tion campaign is now being authoriz
ed in South Carolina under temporary
permits being issued through county
farm agents pending the arrival from
Washington of the regular official
permits, says D. W. Watkins, assis
tant director of the Extension Ser
vice. Those farmers who because of
their plans for other use of the land
cannot wait for the arrival of their
regular permits from Washington
may secure the special authority
from the county agents, Mr. Watkins
announces.
Before certification can he made
for payment of benefits, every ^row
er cooperating in the campaign will
have to show the local commiteemen
and agents that he has taken gut the
acreage offered when he signed, Mr.
Watkins cautions.
Figures tabulated through July 19,
the las tday cotton offrrs were mailed
to Washington, show for South Car
olina that 433,311 acres of cotton
have been offered the Secretary of
Agriculture for destruction in the
campaign now being waged for that
purpose, says D. W. Watkins, assis
tant director of extension in charge
of the tabulations.
The total number of separate offers
received amounted to 69, 709 and the
average estimated yield on all offers

Only about 28 per cent of the cot

Mr. Watkins' figures, is not repre
