f
The South is Not Bankrupt,
But Has Many Valuable
Assets and Resources.
(Manufacturers Record.)
In the fall of 1914, when the Euro-|
pean war placed an embargo on cotton
exports, a leading Southern Senator
spent an hour trying to convince the
editor of the Manufacturers Record
that the South would be absolutely
bankrupt if the government did not
buy a large portion of the cotton crop
which was then being picked. He
wgs.dQapeirately in earnest. He filled
the daily papers with reports that the
.South would be bankrupted by reason
of its inability to sell cotton.
Many others were misled by his views
and for a while a wave of pessimism
-swept over the South, and politicians
and unwise business leaders started
the cry of "Buy a Bale of Cotton,"
placarding the country with reports
that the South was on the verge of
bankruptcy.
The South was not bankrupt then
? _1 mi n ji i *

given a hard blow, but not more so
"than other sections.
The livestock raisers of the West
and of the Pacific Coast and the grain
growers of the country havfc been hit
just as hard as the cotton growers.
The merchants have been getting
their knocks, too.
Moreover, the South has a diversity
of development which is absent in
manv othor nnrt.s nf t.lir* pnnnfw
Southern soil is just as good for many
other products as it is for cotton. Indeed,
the South can completely abandon
the growing of cotton and be the
richer therefor. If cotton had never
been grown by the South, this section
would today be the livestock and diversified
farming center of America,
, with a wealth unsurpassing that of
the richest section of the West.
Cotton furnished less than onethird
of the farm-product values of
the South, and the value of the manufactured
products of the South far
exceed the value of its agricultural
output.
The South is mining a very large
per cent of the total coal output of
the country.
With the exception of California,
the South is the center of the great
oil-producing activities of the United
States, and this industry is rapidly
expanding and ever requiring an increasing
supply of engines and boilers
and piping and other things needed
in this industry.
The abundant supply of natural
gas is a great power for the development
of industries in the South. This
in connection with the enormous re
fining: operations which are being expanded
on the Gulf Coast, will make
the oil refining business one of the
greatest activities of the country, and
indeed, will make the South the center
of the gas and oil-refining industries
of the world.
The Standard Oil Co. is spending
millions of dollars for the extension
of its plant at Baltimore, and is building
a million and a half dollar office
Atructiure in this city merely to house
its own employes.
At Charleston and Brunswick and
on the Gulf Coast there are enormous
refining operations under way and
others projected.
The South is producing 99 per cent
of the nation's sulphur supply, and resources
of the South in sulphur are
far and away beyond anything which
had previously been supposed* A few
years ago it was thought that Louisiana
had the chief source of sulphur
in the country. But later on came
the great development at Freeport,
Tex., and it was thought that that
was the last word in sulphur development.
But then came the great development
of the Gulf Sulphur Co., and
the more the sulphur situation is
i studied the more limitless, seems to
bcv the supply, and sulphur is the
foundation for a vast economic development
which will influence every
line of manufacturing.
Paper manufacturing is to become
one of the leading interests of the
South. A number of big mills are under
way and others projected involving
the expenditure of some millions
of dollars for the manufacture of
pulp and paper from the hardwoods
of the Carolinas and the pines of the

MEETING OF PARENTTEACHERS
ASSOCIATION
The Conway Parent-Teachers Association
held its first 1921 meeting
Thursday afternoon, January 13, in
the High School Auditorium, with the
president, Mrs. M. G. Anderson presiding.
The meeting was opened with a
prayer by Rev. Mr. Hurst.
The first number on the program
was an instrumental solo by little
Miss Irone Elliott.
A paper on "The Importance of
English in the High School for a Well
Grounded Education" was read bv
M iss Helen Gray, after which a talk I
entitled "A Better English Course in
the High School," was given by Rev.
Mr. Atkinson, during the course of |
which he brought out some very interesting
state history.
This was followed by an instrumental
solo by Miss Sarah Gordon.
The last number on the program
was a paper read by Mr. Alexander
on "What Parents May Do to Make
Our School a Better One." This paper
hit home so well that there was some
discussion as to how best get it to
every parent of the school, after
which a motion was carried to have
the president appoint a committee of
three to have the paper published in
the local newspapers and a copy
mailed to every parent.
With the call for "any further business"
from the president, Mrs. W. A.
Freeman offered as a suggestion for
consideration from the association a
plan for leveling the school grounds
and building a brick wall around
them, stating that a rough estimate
by Mr. H. P. Little showed that this
could be done for approximately
$2,500.00.
Mrs. M. J. Bullock mentioned the
opening of a night school for adult
illiterates at the Methodist Hut, stating
this to 'be the first school of a
series for this county.

BY LACK OF CREDIT
Central Europe Wants Entire
Southern Crop. Is Claim.
Would Pay Forty Cents.
Washington, D. C.?Central Europe
would buy the entire Southern cotton |
crop at forty cents a pound today if
proper credit conditions could be arranged,
E. S. Butler, president of the
New Orleans Cotton Exchange, declared
before the House agricultural
committee. Opposing the bills before
the committee which would eliminate
all speculation in cotton futures
on exchanges, Mr. Butler said farmers
six months ago could have sold
their entire crop of cotton ahead of
thirty-five cents a pound.
Elimination of all speculation in future
trading would be "disastrous" to
cotton producers and to the trade
generally, since it would force exchanges
to close, Mr. Butler asserted.
Regulatory legislation enacted in the
United States could not affect the
future cotton markets in Liverpool,
England, he added, as it would leave
the foreign spinners in control of the
market and they would be able to dictate
the price of cotton.
Recognized Forty Years.
America and Europe for forty
years have reconized the future trad
ing as the best insurance yet devised
for the cotton trade, Mr. Butler said.
Ho also advocated retention of "hedging"
facilities on the ground that it
enables the farmers to find a market
for their commodity at any time during
the year. The legitimate speculator
is the only "buffer" between the
farmer and the consumer whose interests
are diametrically opposed, he
continued.
The United States cotton futures
act has been satisfactory to the trade,
Mr. Butler asserted, adding that it
benefitted the spinners, if anyone.
Ho did not think it helped the producers,
he said, in reply to questions
from Representative Caroway, Democrat.,
Arkansas.
Decline of cotton prices were due to 1
impoverished conditions abroad and
unsettled financial conditions and not
to the future market, Mr. Butler asserted.
He said the present futures
market tended to lift up the price of
cotton. 1

Finance Minister's Delay Menaces
Financial Stabilitv if
Nation Accepts Agreement
(New York World.)
Athens, Greece.?Finance Minister
Nicho'as Calogeropoulos, in explaining
recently to The World correspondent
the financial plight of Greece,
said his government hopes that the
United States and Great Britain will
renew the credits which they suspended
when notified that King Constantine
had resumed the throne.
"Constantino at no time ceased to
be our legitimate King," the Minister
said. "He was forced to quit the
country, but did not abdicate. Upon
his return he merely resumed his active
reign following an enforced absence.
We have received the impression
that the American and Entente
governments suspended credits while
awaiting official notice from us of the
return of the 1<ing. Now they have
such formal notice, and we trust that
Washington and London will put an
end to the financial impasse which
seems to have -been caused by misapprehension
as to the status of the
King."
Urgent Inquiry to U. S.
Minister Calogeropoulos said that
more than one week ago 'his government
had sent an urgent inquiry to
Washington, asking the intentiens of
the American givernment in respect
to the $33,000,000 held by the Guaranty
Trust Company, as the balance
of the $50,000,000 credit granted by
the United States to Greece in 1913.
No reply has come from Washington.
The Minister says the delay
menaces the financial stability of
Greece. When the credit was opened,
the dollar stood for about five draehams.
Nearly three times as many
% *
aracncms must now be paid for every
dollar. No one can foresee when the
declining rate for the dracham will
cease. A bread famine threatens the
civilian population and the armies
in Thrace and Smyrna. It can be
averted only if Greece can draw on
American credit to pay for the American
and Canadian wheat already ordered.
"With my colleagues," the Minister
continued, "I am willing to abide by
the agreement signed by the former
Greek Cabinet covering the New
York credit of $33,000,000 and the
credit of $20,000,000 remaining of the
$50,000,000 opened at the same time
with the British government.
Asked how deep the people of
Greece were willing to go in their
own pockets for the required cash,
the Minister said he is preparing a
programme of financial reforms, as
foreshadowed in the King's' speech
from the throne. Radical reduction
in ordinary expenditures will be the
first saving to be effected.
People Heavily Taxed.
"I fear outsiders overestimate the
taxable wealth of our people," he
said. "We shall levy on all possible
sources, taxing the masses as well
??e 1 - 1 -
no fitu jiiuiibcoia. vm pt'upit, nowover,
are already heavily taxed.
Every additional tax will be fought
and collections delayed.
"We Estimate that the proposed
war profits tax will not yield more
than 30,000,000 to 40,000,000 drachmas
(the drachma is nominally worth
19 cents), which seems like a drop in
the ocean as compared with the
monthly cost of 100,000,000 drachmas
for the prosecution of the war in Asia
Minor and Thrace."

U. LLUTU FORD
COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN
Bill Exempting Horry County
Introduced by Senator
Smith.
According to news from Columbia
last week the committees of the House
of Representatives were in process of
appointment but only the chairmen
of the committees were being read
out.
G. Lloyd Ford, of the Horry delegation
was appointed as chairman of
the Committee on Legislative Library.
In both the House and the Senate
many resolutions were introduced
calling for reduction of taxes. One oi
the resolutions introduced and which
will be considered as soon as possible
is for the extension of time limit for
payment of taxes without penalty tc
April 1st. This was referred to the
Financial Committee of the Senate.
It is also noted that in the State
Senate Jeremiah Smith introduced a
bill for the purpose of exempting
Horry County from the operation of
the stock law. So far as the Herald
has been able to find out, no action
i- *
nas oeen taken except, of course, to
refer it to the proper committee. The
fight will come up later, and if it
should be passed by the Senate, it
will be sent to the House of representatives,
where it will have to pass
to become a law.
