Arresting Lawyer Boy*
"Two young lawyers, one from V7ir
ginia and the other from a North
Carolina city, were arretted in Ra
leigh within the past few days in
connection with the statutes .bearing
the names of Messrs. Volstead and
h Turlington. It is possibly to conceive
that a lawyer might fracture the
? statute*,. in a moment of weakness,
Same as other folks. The surprise is
that they art' arresting lawyers. That
' is contrary to the practice. Kither

CONVICT RETURNED'
Had Karaped From Held Farm Near
^umdi'ii and Gone to Kansas
Columbia, Jan. 23.?- Attempt to
prevent the Uxuanco of extradition
papers allowing J- P? Harth, South
Carolina constable, to return to this
state with Odeil Sims, Spurtanburg
county negro, who escaped in July.
1 U'J2, from Reid state farm, on the
grounds ihat South Carolina had a
kind of peonage system >*s did not
exist in Kansas marked the hearing
before the Kansas governor. Mv.
Harth said yesterday on his return
with the negro.
Sinus and his attorney argued that
the. negro would.be whipped, beaten
and kilh'd in South Carolina, but the
l-tant attorney general told Go*.
Hen S. I'aulien there was no reason
apparently for the denying of tho
Requisition, Mr. Harth. said.
Whereupon the state constable left
Kansas City with Sims Tuesday and
arrived yesterday afternoon in Co
lumbia to place Sims back in the
penitentiary to complete service of
his six years' sentence;.
Sims was convicted in Spart'anburg
county of assault and battery with
intent to kill in connection with the
shooting of K. I.. Green, a railroad
conductor. Two other negroes, Utley
Michels and "Cootey" Weaver were
convicted of the same offense and
are now serving sentences.
Sims escaped from the farm after
being there only 14 days. IIo ran
all the way through Kershaw county,
he .told Mr. Harth, went to work as
a roundhouse fireman at Charlotte,
going later to Richmond, New York,
Cincinnati and other places. At one
time he returned to Spartanburg, ac
cording to his statement, expecting
to be arrested. He afterwards went
to Kansas City, Kan.', where he has
been profitably employed for some
time,.according to his statement to
the South Carolina constable.
Investigation by railroad detec
tives led to the apprehension of
Sims. Notification of his discovery
\va> j eeeived last week by A. M. Scar
borough superintendent of the peni
tentiary, from the office of the
?in i il l' of Spartanburg county. Requi
sition papers were issued by Gov.
Thomas <!. MeLeod and Mr. Harth
w? ni lo Kansas^-. >
On the ivturn trip Sims was met
by a host of friends and relative.*
::i Spartanburg, Mr. Harth said, and.
there supplied with''money.'
Government operation of the rail
roads during the World war caused
the nation a net loss of $1,764,500,
according to the final summary sub-,
mitted to President Coofidge by Di
rector General of Railroads Davis.
The Soviet government of Russia,
reports the sale of 75,000 tons of
Russian oil to France, and rejoices
that this is the beginning of a trade
that will increase considerably and
beconje permanent.
