To Meet at Antioch Every Thursday During the p^at year we have located several young farmer* in the community who are out of school working on the farm, says D. W. inaxler, superintendent and teacher of vocational agriculture at the Antioch high school. Some of them attended the part-time meeting in Camden two weeks ago. A meeting wa? held last Thursday evening at the school house and several were present along with several farmers in the community. The farmers under the federal government's classification as evening class members in agriculture have decided to meet at the same time that the part-time group meets. At the last meeting the two groups decided to make an intensive study of poultry taking up suah jobs as feeding, culling, house construction, diseases, incubation and brooding, grading and marketing and caponizing. Tho meeting time was set as each Thursday evening at 8 o clock for tho next few weeks. A certificate will be given to each person who attends most of the meetings. Of course to get u certificate each member must arrange to carry out some poultry work on the farm that will bring in some cash to the farm. r might state thut we are planning to have u good enrollment in both these classes.

James, about 40, of Gaurinburg, N. C., waa found in his automobile on a highway seven mile* north of Bennettsville early today. He ie said to be a member of a prominent family. Officer a tonight had lodged two negro women and a negro girl in jail here aa material witnesses and were seeking two negro men, one of whom waa seen with James, last night. The body was discovered by County Supervisor Tom I. Parker. James' clothing was bloodstained and the body bore evidence, police said, of having been placed in the car. Sheriff W. F. Rogers and (Coroner J. F. David, who investigated the effair, reported that a trail in a cotton row showed that the body had been dragged about 150 yards to the highway from a tenant farm house. They said blood stains were found on the porch and steps of the house. It was there that bhe three negro women were arrested. One of the negroes wanted is Tom Newton, who was seen with James at a filling station near Cheraw late yesterday. v Young |Glrl Pleads Guilty Matyst Yarborough, daughter of ^-Charlotte, N. C., merchant, Saturday plead guilty to conspiracy to rob the Hank of Rockwell, near Salisbury, N. C., on which charge she is being tried with Mary Frick, of "Rockwell, and two Charlotte youths, Ted Honeyeutt and John Ellis. The bank was robbed of $1,200 last month after the two men had forced the cashier into a vault at the point of a pistol. Jake Vanderburg Is Held in Threat Gaatonia, Sept. 12. ^Jake Vanderburg, Gaston youth acquitted in Gatton superior court more than a year ago of the murder of his father, mother, and three brothers and sisters in one of the most sensational murder myaery trials in the history of North Carolina, was in the county jail here tonight charged with assault with a deadly weapon and other offenses as the result of a threat made by him this afternoon to kill Mrs. Jennie Green, aged woman occupying a house on the Vanderburg property where the Vanderburg home, housing the bodies of the murdered members of the family, burned to the ground in January, 11)29, destroying evidence of violence to their persons. Vanderburg was said to have gone to Mrs. Green's home this afternoon, pointing a pistol at her and saying that if he found her there at 7 o'clock this evening he woultr kill her. Mrs. Green notified .Sheriff Eli P. Lineburger, who sent deputies to the Green home at 7 p. m. I>eputies found Jake sitting in a chair there,, pistol in lap, awaiting Mrs. Green's return. The more than six-foot farm lad will bo held in the county jail pending some action, the course of which was not known tonight. It was thought he was suffering from mental disorders, as was also the belief during his trial for the murder of five members of his family. Walter S. Fleming, 32, of New Castle, Pa., was killed Saturday when his car upset in the 100-mile automobile race at the New Castle fair. Monroe Opposed Sale Public Utilities The city of Monroe went ou record Monday very emphatically a? being opposed to the sale of its public utilities to Sherritt & Company of Chicago as there were but 85 votes cast in favor of the proposed sale out of a total of 1817 registered voters. Only the votes of those who were duly registered were counted but a large numbers appeared at the polling places asking that they be aMowed to protest the sale which was put up to the voters by the city council of Monroe. Charges of graft flew thick and fast during the campaign and the methods of Sherritt & Company came in for u large amount of criticism. Mr, M. G. Bishop who contracted with the city council of Monroe to sell their properties on a commission basis of 5 per cent on anything the properties brought over $750,000 also was severely censured during the campaign. The people of the city of Monroe evidently favor the continuance of municipal ownership, although the Southern Public Utilities company have offered to raise the bid of Sherritt & Company provided that the city council of Monroe cancel their contract with M. G. Bishop.?Lancaster News. A series of spectacular raids, one on a fashionable residential hotel, were made Saturday in Chicago, 111., by Federal narcotic agents and police. Twenty-five prisoners, including a dozen young girls and women, were arrested. Large quantities of narcotics including opium and opium pipes were confiscated.

D. |j For Your Sake II I as well as ours || OVER A YEAR,AGO we pointed lout some of the grave economic dangers facing the cotton manufactur- II I . ing industry of South Carolina. The (problems threatening then are ^menacing now. The dangers inevitable | I I then are actual now. The lapse of time has proven thatthe apprehension ofay ear ago wasnotwithout I | ] foundation. II I j The world has produced more cotton goods than it has consumed and much has been produced at a 1 j I low labor cost against which South Carolina mills cannot compete, even with improved machinery and j j modern .methods. The result:?an inevitable drop in the price of cotton goods to a point far below the 1 cost of manufacture in South Carolina. I For Instance? 1 I ' ' Price Cents II I ! Per Pound |l I PRICE-WIDE PRINT CLOTHS AUGUST 19,1929 40V8 III I 1 J WIDE PRINT CLOTHS AUGUST 19, 1930 4 25 2-5 || I 1 Shrinkage in Price of Cloth 14% II I | SPOT MIDDLING COTTON AUGUST 19, 1929 183/. - II I j SPOT MIDDLING COTTON AUGUST 19, 1930 11V4 j j Shrinkage in Price of Cotton/ .07 Va j Thus it will be seen that the price of cloth has shrunk approximately twice as much as the price of cotton during the same period. J ! , Possibly the bottom of cloth prices has not yet been reached. Certainly there is little hope of relief I ! yet in sight. II H |j It has now become not a question of profit but actually a question of existence. No mill can continue j | I to operate at a heavy loss month after month and survive. : And a result of such dire circumstances and in order to take some constructive measure toward an improvement of the situation, many of the mills have been forced to a rather drastic and much to be re- j I gretted, though necessary, policy of part time operation. It is not a step which the mills themselves desire. I They were a built to run, not to shut down. Part time operation disrupts production and makes profitable II operation practically impossible. However, it is apparently, the only measure in sight that can now or I | later improve the situation by reducing the supply of goods and leading to a more steady employment. Thus the widespread effort at curtailment is undertaken that the mills may actually avoid disaster; j I not that their operatives may eventually have remunerative employment, but that they may have work at || I all,?for their very jobs are at stake. ' To give employment to the usual number of people would be a difficult problem, but with the enor- II I j mous over supply of families that have flocked to the mills it is a gigantic problem and the icotton mills of I i | South Carolina are staggering .under the task, for they do feel a sense of deep responsibility for their em- II I In their vigorous efforts to solve mill problems they deeply appreciate the co-operative effort and kind- | I ly spirit of helpfulness already manifested by the employees and by the public at large. Such unitv of I purposese cannot 'but succeed in time. Ill Litton Manufacturers' Association ii | south Carolina |
