, FEW PEOPLE VENTURE
^ OPINION AS TO ACTION
Inclined to Be Skeptical as to
Seriousness of Allied Demand
for Extrcv'.ilion.
Ilerlin.?Twelve admirals, two hi}.','*
seas' fleet commanders, thirty Ul)oat
captains and numerous other
officers of the German navy are included
in the list of Germans who e
extradition is demanded by the Entente
powers. The names of very
nearly all the naval and high seas
- staffs are. found in the list. Admiral
Von Mueller, chief of the secret naval
cabinet, was permanently attached
to great headquarters where
he was counted among former Emperor
William's personal confidential
advisers. In addition the Allies de
mand Admiral Von Tirpitz, Admiral
Von Cappelle, and Admiral Von Trotha,
who were successively secretaries
of the navy.
Admiralty officers who will discuss
the list charge that the wholesale
demand for German naval offi^
cers indicated the Entente's desire U>
'permanently paralyze German na\al
aspirations," and the piesence of
names like those of Admiral Von
TTiipitz ami' Admiral Von Mueller is
ridiculed.
Admiral Von Schroder commanded
the Flanders naval base and it was
under hi - jurisdiction that Captaii
^ Fryatt, later executed, was captured.
30 S?ub Commanders.
Out of a total of 500 German sub
marine commanders, the Entente
powers have called for only thirty,
who, presumably, are suspected of
havi -.g exceeded their legitimate instructions.
These comprise all the
prominent U-bcat operators. The
admiralty admitted losing 2d0 U
boats and it is estimated 1G0 \vcreal
the close of the conflict.
Commander lloekcr is an aviator
who attempted a sensational Zeppelin
flight to the German colony in j
the heart of Africa. Officials are
unable to account for the absence of
the nJlK'cs of Zeppelin commanders
who bombed London.
Captain Nerger, whose name was
included in the list, was commander
of the German commerce raider
Wolff.
Few persons in Berlin today would
venture any opinion as to what action
would be taken but were incline
9 cd to be skeptical in regard to seriousness
of the Allied demand for
extradition. They were inclired to
believe it to be the prelude of a demand
for a staggering indemnity, or
an Allied move in some other direction.

I Expected Names Not Listed.
I The Morgenpost noted the absence
I f 1'G^ tlie list of many names that
I mipjftjiave been expected. It points
as an instance, that the name of
v?aptain Sauerweig, commonly -chargI
ed with having been actively identiI
fied with the executon of Miss Cavell,
does not appear.
Dr. Karl Helfferich, former vice
chancellor, asserted at the trial of
the libel suit brought against him
Mathias Erzberger that he would
^ provO that Evzbcrgor, during the
I critical days- at Weimar, when the
question of signing the Versailles
treaty was acute, claimed to be in
possession of definite information
that the Entente would recede from
i n on the extradition issue.

HORRY INDUSTRIAL
NEEDS AMOUNT ASKED
Rev. S. C. Morris is After the
Undeveloped Youth of
Horry County.
m^mmtmarnmrnrn
The Rev. J. Hubert Noland writes
of Horry County, and the Horry Industrial
School, in a recent issue of
the Southern Christian Advocate, as
follows:
Marion District covers a wide territory,
extending between the Pee
Dee river and the North Carolina
line, and including the lower portion
oi' Marlboro county, the counties of
Dillon, Marion and Horry; and Horry,
you know, looks out upon th ?
Atlantic Ocean, and is the Independent
Republic within the freest state
in the Union. It is there that the
Rev. S. C. Morris is giving himself
to a task that calls for the highest
order of consecration. Why do we
rave over educational missions to
the far-away Cathays, or expend
thousands upon the education of the
brother-in-black, or look with eyes
wide-open at the so-called Mill problem,
and shut our eyes, withhold our
?unnnrf nnd nvnn nr'i f'net nslnon nf".
~J t~> ' ??-r ?
the name of The Horry Industrial
School? Yet that is missions, education,
and problem, all combined;
and Sam Morris deserves a triple
crown. But he does not ask for
crowns. He wants shillings an 1
pence! He is in an agricultural
country the half of which has nevcv
been told. He is not a land agent
booming the lands of Horry. He is
after the undeveloped youth of that
section. His institution should not
be side-tracked for any other. By
unanimous vote the following resolution
was adopted:
"Whereas, the South Carolina
Conference at its recent session,
through recommendations of the
Boards of Missions and Education,
recommend that One Hundred^JThous
and Dollars be asked for the Horry
Industrial School from the Educational
Drive;
And, whereas, the Educational
Commission has cut this down to
Seventy-five Thousand Dollars;
Resolved, that the Marion District
Preachers' Meeting request the Commission
at its meeting on February
24th, most earnestly to restore the
original asking of One Hundred
Thousand Dollars in order that the
school may build the plant absolutely
necessary to carry on its work."

CONWAY, S. P., THURSDAY,
HORRY COUNTY
SCHOOL SURVEY
A school survey of the county is
being- made by the State Department
of Education, assisted by the
County Superintendent of Education.
This accounts for Supt. Bullock's bci'
g out of his office ^nearly every
day except Saturdays and salesdays.
This work has been going on for
some time and will continue for two
or three months. One of the State
Supervisors of rural schools is travelling
with the County Superintendent,
photographing the school houses
and writing up conditions just as
he finds them, both inside and out-?
side of the building. Every school
district will be visited and the conditions
as seen by an expert will be
published in book form by the' State
Department of Education. While
most of the schools visited so far
have been neat and well kept, and
showed other admirable features, u
few of them have been so lacking in
neatness, cleanliness, and good order
! as to be a matter of deep regret.
When this book is published we
shall be able to see ourselves as
.others see us. Mr. BullPck has been
trying to get the State Superintendent
of Education to make this survey
for several years and has at
last succeeded. We think Supt.
j Swearingen was fortunate in sccur
, nig such a man as Mr. J. V. McElveen
to help in this work. He is
a graduate of a State university and
has specialized, in a school of education.
He has been a teacher, a
county superintendent of education,
and is now one of the state supervisors
of rural schools. When this
work is completed the book will be
sent, not only over South Carolina,
but into every state in the union. It
is a matter of pride with us that
| Horry is selected as the third coun'
ty in the state in which this work
is done.
This survey will not only do us
good but open the eyes of the Legislature
as to the needs and possibilities
of jone of the whitest counties
in the State?the Independent
Republic of Horry.

AFTER WORDS ABOUT
MISTREATING MULES
Mishoe Handed Over Keys and
Commenced Cutting Without
Warning.
An employee of C. C. Maynard by
the name of Pet Misl oe, a son of
> May Mishoe of the Adi:an section,
slashed his employer, C. C. Maynard,
with a knife last Saturday
morning, so that it was uncertain
' that some of the ga ins w uld provo
to be of a serious nature: although,
Mr. Maynard was brought to the
Burroughs Hospital, wheva his num'
eroua wounds were dressed and left
the Hospital and came down Main
\ Street at about noon time. Some
1 men saw him fall near the store of
the Spivey Mercantile Company an 1
he was taken to the Horry Drug
Company where Dr. Burroughs was
' again called. Maynard had thought
that he was alright after being
' treated at the Hospital but appar1
ontly he was in a very weak condition
when he fell on the street. At
last accounts it was impossible to
tell how serious his wounds might
' prove to be. The difficulty came
about at an early hour last Saturday
morning when Mishoe was driving a
* pair of mules and was jerking the
' animals, when his employer objected,
and required him to quit it. It
is stated that Mishoe got off the
wagon, took out his knife and proceeded
to cut his employer almost to
pieces.
* C. C. Maynard originally lived at
Cheraw, S. C., and since then has
resided at Howell's Siding, and was
engaged in the saw mill business at
' the time of his injuries.
Mr. Maynard stated later that the
cutting took place an hour or two
after the words about jerking the
mules, that Mishoe went on off and
worked that time, and later came
oaeK anct gave mm tno Keys with ni
left hand, while he had his right
hand concealed in his pocket with
an open knife and begun the cutting
without any warning.
