BOOM DANGER
"Of far greater danger to the United
States than depression as a reault
of world war," say The New Orleans
Item, "Is a possible war boom, with
inflation and the danger of getting
into war because our money is Involved,
or our Jobs and profits are Involved.

COTTON AND THE WAR
There Is some cheer In recent stalls- j
tics showing that exports of American
cotton for the season bo far are
slightly In excess of tTioso to the samo
date last season.
Tho latest report of Secretary
Plauche of the New Orleans cotton
exchango places exjxms for tho season
to tho end of last week at 307,355, a
gain of 17,511 over last season.
This would suggest that our cotton
Is moving abroad In greater volume
than last year, hut It must be admitted
that the development of a general
European war raises much question as
to the near-term futuro for American
cotton. Those familiar with cotton
history will recall the severe break
In cotton prices which followed tho
outbreak of the World War In 1914.
Tho situation as to our cotton, however,
seem rather different today than
then. We are using u larger proportion
of our cotton crop at home now
than In those years; und the countries
whose buying of cotton would be most
seriously affected by the war have
not, aH a matter of fact, been buying
very much In recent years.
Cotton prices have been dropping
during the last few weeks, but that
may be due largely to tho increasing,
movement of the new crop to market.
A New York report is that cotton
loans would become mandatory at a
basis of S.05 cents a pound for mid-,
dllng 7 Much staple In the ten designated
markets. The operation of the,
loan program would tend to prevent
domestic prices going below that level,
while the export subsidy would permit
sales abroad at a somewhat lower
price. Hut with continued large scale
war operations foreign demand for j
cotton would seem likely to Increase
substantially - --Greenville News
"COTTON GOING TO TOWN"
CREATES MOTORING HAZARD8
Heavy movement of the cotton crop
from the fields to the gins and to
market, which Is now in full swing,
has added greatly to the hazards of
motor vehicle traffic In South I urollna.
J. S Williamson. State Highway
Engineer, commenting on the
situation yesterday, declared that
drivers of motor vehicles must exer-,
else greater care If serious accidents,
are to be avoided.
Mr. Williamson pointed out that]
cotton wagons and various kinds of!
farm trucks and trailers pulling onto
or driving along the highway are moving
so slowly, in many instances, that
to fast moving vehicles they are practically
the samo as standing still Cotton
Wagons are quite numerous along
many highways during the day aud
early evening, making overtaking and
passing much more hazardous.
Probabl) the period of greatest
hazard is in the early evening when
wagons and tru< ks detained at the
gin until after dark are on their vvnv
home. Under such circumstances
vet > few of the wagons carry lights
and many of the light trailers are not
adequately equipped with lights, especially
clearance and sideinarker
lamps and good reflectors on the rear
Farmers are requested by State offt.dais
b?> c<?operate ill every possible
vvav to make the hauling of cotton
and other farm produce on The highways
as safe as possible Vehicles
should tilwav - be kept to the i ighl o.
the center line and adequate lights
should be ptovided on both tho front
and the re.u after dark Drivers o!
motor vehicles should be constant!)
on the a p.-tt and adjust their spe-di
in rural areas to meet the hazardous
conditions created by the s?*.?sona
hauling.
WH V?
Why do some motorists blow ant
keep on blowing their horns wher
halted In a string of cars by tho ret
light at the corner of Broad and Do

U. S. GERMANS WANT
TO DEFEAT HITLER
Cleveland. Sept. 2.?A call to the
German people to rise up and defeat
Adolph Hitler" was sounded today by
the German-American League for Culture
in national convention here.
Attempts will be made to broadcast
the messuge to Germany through 3
short wave radio station, one In Engj
land, one in the Putted States, and a
secret station In Germany, league officials
said.
The delegates representing a membership
of 103.000 German-Americans
adopted a resolution blaming Hitler's
"barbarous destruction" for destroying
the good reputation of Germans
throughout the world."
The resolution calls upon the German
people:
"Wo are calling on you out of the
unshakable faith that tho German
nation does not agree with the policies
of Hitler.
"The Nazi regime of Hitler is systematically
destroying the good reputation
of Germans throughout the
world For over six years the world
has observed with profound disgust
the barbarous destruction of culture
in a land of philosophers and poets.
"Hitler has started a war which
will cause resentment against Ger-]
! mans all over the world. GermanI
Americans are already feeling this
resentment.
"Hitler must be defeated. His vie'
torv would mean the victory of barj
barism over civilization. Hitler's doi
jVat must tie your victor), a victory
of free and democratic Germany.

Isaac English Died i
Suddenly on Friday
Isaac English, age 66 year#, who I
was u barber by trade six days of j
work and a minister of the Gospel on j
the'soveYith d4V'," la dead and a com-j
munity mourufl his paaslug. Expressions
of sorrow came front the Up*1
of the whites ad well as from the colored
folks. .
For fifty years Isaac English piled
his trade. There have been many oc-j
caslons when his nimble fingers have
exercised the sharp ?cl**or? through
the greylag locks of a customer while,
the son and grandson of the customer
|u the chair sat In noarby chairs
awaiting their turn.
I inunc and his brother, Sclplo KngI
11eh established a barber shop on
south Broad street when keroseue
I stoves furnished heat and keresen^
lamps were all the light available.
He later named his shop the Eureka
barber shop and It has been operated
continuously for fifty year*-being
the second oldest establishment lu
Camden.
Isaac was a staunch member of the
Trinity Methodist church of this city
and many times he has occupied iho
pulpit to exltort his listeners of the
glory of God. Several years ago he
became a minister and every Sunday
since his appointment he has served
his God In preaching In tho churches
of the colored settlements on tho
other side of the Wateree river.
In addition to his strict adherence
to tlm precepts of a devout Christianity
ho was a groat worker In the Interests
of the colored children and
was back of every movement to promote
better educational advantages
for his race. The negro public
schools, the Browning Home school
and Mather Academy, all owe much
to his untiring zeal and affectlou. '
Friday morning Isaac was at his
shop and had shaved and cut the hair
of quite a number of his customers.
During a lull, as was his custom, he
stepped to the sidewalk bo chat with
passersby. Then he returned to take
care of a customer. It was at this
juncture that he became 111. He sat
down in a chair and then without
warning his head slumped and he
was gone. He was dead when a physician
arrived.
Isaac leaves his wife, a son, Isaac,
Junior, who Is an interne In the Homer
G. Phillips hospital In St. Louis,
and a daughter, Eloise, who teaches
in the schools of the county.
The funeral services were held on
Tuesday afternoon In Trinity Methodist
church attended by an overflow
congregation. Rev. R. F. Freemari.
the pastor of the church, had charge
of the funeral ceremonies. A large
number of ministers prominent In
the Methodist conference were present
and delivered short eulogies
Among them were Rev. J. G. Stokes,
of Sumter, whoi led in preayer, ^lev.
E. J. Cooper, of Camden, read the
Scripture. Remarks were made by
Rev G B. Tillman, district superintendent
of the Beaufort district; Rev.
C C Reynolds, of the Florence district;
Rev. E. C. Wright, of the Orangeburg
district; Rev. S. M. Miller,
of Sumter, and Rev. W. A. Houton. of
the Presbyterian church, Camden.
The principle eulogy was delivered
by Rev. A. R. Howard, district superintendent
of the Sumter district.
I There was a beautiful display" o
floral offerings sent by members of
both races.
EUROPE'S WAR HAS LOCAL
EFFECT ON LOCAL FOOD PRICES
Allho some 3.000 miles of blue Atlantic
waters separate Camden from
the battlefields of France, some local
citizens learned for the first time this
week how much war on the continent
can effect America here at home.
The affect came in the sudden jump
in the costs of food commodities Ac
affect that came in the night and
found several of the leading foods up
a cent or so the next morning.
A local chain grocer said yesterday
that prices began their sudden rise
here Tuesday when his company had
dispatched a telegram to him raisin*
the price of several commodities?and
announcing that others might aooi
rise.
Sugar prices leaped up one cent t<
the pound, and considering that lh<
average family buys 5 to 10 pound!
each week, that one cent soon mount!
up
Fat back, a leading food commodlt:
s in the South would seem to have lit
11 tie or nothing to do with death-Moot
'I in Europe, but jumped up two cents oi
the pound just tho same.
I Other commodities were raised 'i
little." but a big jump up and contin
- ued jumps are expected as the v.*a
5 rages. The store manager said h
- looked for cigarettes, canned good
I'and other foods to be raised in cost
tl soon ?If not In the Immediate future
Thus war in Europe affects th
bread-basket of America
1 The Japanese navy Wednesday re
r quested British and French naval ail
thoritles to withdraw their force* fror
China to "remove the danger^ of lnc1
3 dents" as the result of the Europeai
war. i
Big City Feels
Effect of War
New York, Sept. 7.?rTho war In profoundly
affecting life in tl?o nation's
largest city, but not to the eye of the
tourist on Fifth Avenue, it's all behind
the scenes
I New York'H 18,000 police stroll
.about unruffled, but they're on emer gency
duty ?one day off In 27,
Among the crowds are a secret
?<juardron of lOO-O-Men, on the alert
for new espionage, sabotage Had a dozen
other wartime dangers
| in a hundred places, there are sepjclal
guards.
| City police, in cooperation with
state police, guard the several vital
reservoirs of the city's huge water supply
ugalnst sabotage.
Other officers are stationed at all
the Important power plants. There
are new special 24-hour patrols on the
dozen big bridges and tunnels that are
such important arteries between Manj
hattan and Long Island and New JerI
se.y?where, in the last war, occurred
I the Black Tom and Kingsland ammunition
explosions, the idemnities (or
j which have not been settled yet.
At the Brooklyn Navy Yard, whore'
work is being rushed on several now
cruisers and destroyers, there aro
more special protective measures,
j Other centers of activity under
guard are the foreign consulates,
where dally lines of various nationals
j register, seek war information and
volunteer for military service.
At the World's Fair, seVerai foreign
buildings are shut down, others have
been stripped of their foreign staffs
by conscription. All are guarded.
Paradoxically In Yorkvllle, the center
of New York's 60,000 Germans,
quiet prevails. The only notable,
new phenomenon is the newsdealer,
who once would have been run out
of the district, capitalizing on the
Russian-German trade treaty by sell1
ing copies of the Communist Dally
Worker.
In the Polish section, hidden away
In the lower Fast Side, the streets are
full of war gossip. The Poles excitedly
scan the foreign newspaper bulletin
boards.
Far out on Long Island a forest of
wireless towers, one of the United
I States' most important channels of
communication with Europe, have
been suddenly highlighted as a vital
spot
A few days ago, nobody thought
j anything about them. Now the downtown
employees of RCA, Mackay Radio
and the telephone company hesitate
even to mention the stations' location.!
I Today there were new fences around I
' the towers, all gates were locked, and
' visitors carefully examined.
Over the last weekeAd, the Columbia
Broadcasting System distributed
pictures of its new shortwave receiving
station?labelled only "Some!
where on Long Island." f
The National Broadcasting Company's
short wave receiving station
is In the heart of Manhattan, only a
1 few feet from a spot visited by thousands
of tourists daily, but even the
building employees don't know where
the apparatus Is.

( New York has reached the point
v where a New York policeman the other
day?to his subsequent chagrinreported

FISH AND GAME

Making two fish grow where only
one grew before?or making one fish
i grow twice and three times its size
as under normal conditions?has been
the unusual accomplishment of
Swingle and Smith of Alabama agriculture
experiment station at Auburn,
Alabama.
j For several years this team, E. V.
1 Smith and H. S. Swingle, has been ex1
perlmenting with the culture of pond
; fish, especially the large mouth black
' bass and the blue gill bream.
: They determined, for instance, that
I an ac re of water will support two
'i hundred pounds of bluegll!?end - no
' more.
' | They add commercial fertilizer to
i the water and increase the carrying
: capacity of the water as high as 560
i pounds per acre.
, The fish do not eat the fertilizer,
f but It produces a heavy growth ol
j small microscopic plants, which In
3' turn serves as food for the fish and
' increases the plankton content of tht
J
I water several times.

Seaboard Refuses
To Stop "Meteor"
The Seaboard Alr>Llno Hallway will
not atop the Silver Meteor at Camdeu
and the Public Service CvmjMiwilon
of the state will not take any steps
to make the v?llrottJ arrange a local
a top.
The Chamber of Commerce haa been
notified that it# plea for the stopping
of the Meteor here during the tourist
seasou has beeu denied. The
Chamber that it had a
record of Quite a number of cases
where Camden people Wishing to take
the Meteor to York had been Informed
they would have to drive to Columbia
and board the train there. In a majority
of Instances these: proapectlve
passengers went north by another
means.
The Seaboard In Its argument to the
public service commission held that
the Silver Meteor Is a through train
between New York and Miamt-St.
Petersburg, catering to business between
New York, Washington and
Florida cities. In order to maintain
its schedule, the railroad claims it is
impossible to make an additional stop
The train, It Is pointed out, does not
stop at Raleigh, which > the capitol
of North Carolina.
The railroad further argued that if
the train did stop at Camden, the railroad
company could not assure a passenger
a seat from that point.
