HAMBLIN BILL FOR MILL HOURS The introduction again of the 48 lour law bill for cotton mills; the icceptnnce of an invitation to visit Spartanburg to hear Billy Sunday and he introduction of a measure calculi ted to abolish the state board of >uhlic welfare featured the short sesion of the house of representatives ast night. The session was devoted ihnost entirely to the consideration >t loe.d ninth rs, all bills of statevide interest being passed over for onsideration at some later session of he house, when a better attendance an be bad. The 18 hour bill, which was intro-' tliccd by Representatives K. famblin of Union and II. 15. lienIricks of Anderson, would make it unlawful for any textile industry, j rl.ether incorporated or otherwise, to equire move than 48 hours' work per, reek" and would also limit the work-j ng day to nine hours. Violators of he proposed law would be liable for entence at the discretion of thci ourt. The bill, upon the motion of 1 Ir. Hamblin, one of its authors, was j eferred to the committee on the-1 udiciary, of which he is the chair-, iian. The bill is to all practical eifects a uplicate of the similar measure introuced in the house last year and killed n the senate after one of the most pirited fights of the session. The inal vote on the measure favored th?*, neasure by only 10 or 1"> votes and /as made possible only after ruiinerus hearings and hard work by both' he proponents and opponents of the ill. Accordingly the measure is' igain expected to draw the (ire of uany members of both the senate and louse and will probably face hard ledging on it way toward possibly ncorporation in the state law. Repreentative Hamblin is the author of the till introduced and killed last year. Meeting Stockholders Carolina Remedies Co.

CRITICAL PERIOD IN ARMS CONFERENCE Washington, Jan. ltf (By the Associate I'ress).?The Far Eastern discussions of the arms conference are entering their final period of decision with most of the delegates professing confidence in the outcome but 1 conceding privately that the days just 1 ahead may he the most critical of ! tin' whole Washington negotiations. Having begun with a declared polity of disposing tirst of subjects upon which agrement appeared easiest, the ! plenipotentiaries now find themselves 1 confronted with decisions on the problems which have long been storm centers of Oriental polities? enforcement of the open door. Shantung, the 2t demands, "Manchuria ' and the Japanese occupation in Si- ! beria." For the moment all the delegations appear to have adopted simultaneous- I ly an attitude of waiting, so that 1 except for collateral discussions on < various points the work of the con- ! ference is at a stand still. ( The situation again has made Japan the center of conjecture because 1 of her standing position in the Far i East and because most of the problems now to be approached h ive j arisen over policies and acts cmannt ; ing from Tokyo. Representatives of tie- other pow- I crs arc speculating to what extent the United States will go iti re- < iterating the many protests she has ? made in the past against Japanese ' moves in Shantung and elsewhere on ' the continent of Asia in seeking ef ieciive means i>y wnun readjust- ' ments mya be* brought about. Because the Washington government has thus taken the lead in pro- < testing heretofore, however, some of 1 the delegates believe American of- ' llcials would not object if some other ' delegation now took upon its shoulders the task f stating positively the 1 desires of the powers regarding fu- 1 ture Japanese-Chinese relations. But there is no indication that any other power is preparing to do so. The Japanese, meantime, are waiting also but are throwing out suggestions that any attempt to force .Japan's withdrawn? from Shantung*. 1 Manchuria or Siberia except or 1 terms that will protect her interests is sure to meet with bitter and pro- 5 tracted opposition. i 1 Notice i Mr. W.

FARMER QUESTION COMES UP TODAY Washington, Jan. 1G.?The senate will probably vote .omorrow to put u farmer on the fedora! reserve board, leaders of both parties smd tonight. Such action wi.I c t:.k n on a bill amending the fe i reserve act so that, in making r.itmen'.s to the board, the pres.ii n oust have "'due regard for a ft. > s mtation of the financial, ag ndustrial and commercial interests una ne geographical subdivision <>f the country," the measure of compromise to which President Harding and most of the senators have agreed. Senators today denounced and defended the many phases of the reserve board's activities, there being several attacks on the general administrative policy of the board while Senator Glass (Democrat) c' Virginia, former secretary of the treasury. known as author of the reserve net, stoutly defended the board's personnel and program. He branded irituisms ot the board as for the most part the "demagoguery of eruptive politicians." Mr. Glass' denials of charges that the board was I he cause of the heavy decreases in i vices of agricultural products was Sliiritcd mill lli> ntTrroil linriivoc in cut. -tantiation of his statements which, ic said, were "cold and indisputable." The other principal speech of th* lay was by Senator Norris (Republ-i an) of Nebraska, who while saying lie was eager to do anything which kvould aid the farmers, warned that 'the farmers are about to be fooled tgain." "They think," Mr. Norris said, 'that this legislation will work wonlers; that it will give immediate relief; that a sort of millennium will be produced. But it. won't and the reason it won't is because no legislative act can congress take away the discretionary power vested in the executvie over appoints." Mr. Norris said he probably would vote for some of the amendments, which, he said, would be offered to the compromise measure, but that in most cases his vote would be in protest against what he described as nearly maiadmitiktration of affairs >y the reserve board. Mr. Glass in the course of his speech offered official statistics showng, he said, that while prices of agricultural products tumbled last year, the regional i*eserve banks actually had increased the volume of currency and enlarged the credits. He emphasized that the reserve board had no power by law to increase currency or order credits restricted and defied anybody to show that the board has "even so much as h'nted" su h a policy to the reserve banks.
