It hardly seems reasonable that the effects of a strike in an automobile plant in Toledo, Ohio, would be felt directly in Barnwell, but it happens that such is the case and shows how closely knit is the usiness life of America. Last week, The People-Sentinel re ceived a Chevrolet advertising schedule for May and a day or two later the mail brought a cancellation order, this action being necessary “because of the disturbed labor conditions at the Toledo plant.” It is presumed that all newspapers that have contracts for this advertising were similarly affect ed. It will be seen, therefore, that the labor troubles in Toledo are the direct cause of a huge' monetary loss to the newspapers of the nation, as well as to thousands of people in other lines of endeavor. Unsettled labor condi tions throughout the country are re tarding recovery and making Presi dent Roosevelt’s 'hard task even more difficult. It’s a pity that the labor leaders cannot recognize this fact. and misfits, America could —and would—do the job at one stride. Many^faults have been ascribed to us by foreign and friendly critics, but the lack of humane objectives has never been one of them. The transla tion of that ideal today is hopelessly complicated by combining two sepa rate problems, one economic, the other social. Any r standard adopted for the chronifl loKfer ist too low for the honest worker; any standard adbptedvfor the honest worker is too high for the chronic loafer.” the lower set of which the winkles is a part., ! -—from what could be gathered, the | hole party was M complete fluke, no- I boddy fetched aything to the shower I that cost over clO, and if estelia starts (out to house-keeping on what she re ceived at Some, she won’t have noth- , ing but table napkins to begin with, as them i 8 the principal items she re- j ceived. the refreshmnts couidi not At cost over c25, counting everything. More About Cotton. For a number of years, the power ful cotton firm of Anderson, Ciayton and Company has been a controlling factor in the price of American cot ton. It hag been credited with the manipulation of prices, quite often to the detriment of the Southern pro ducer. Of late, there has been a huge amount of propaganda broadcasted against the government’s cotton con trol plan and the processing tax. There are some people who believe that much of this criticispi was in spired by Anderson, Clayton and Company. We do not know whether that is true or not. Much of the propaganda contained warnings of the threat that Brazilian cotton holds for the staple grown in North America. Heretofore, that crop has been negligent and, for the most -part, of poor quality. This year production is estimate^ at 1,581,000 bales—an increase of 63 .per cent, over last year’s crop of 968,000 bales. We learn that Anderson, Clayton andl Company is now engaged in pro- \ there is some talk of the winkle familey going on the relief rolls, he has not yet got holt of that big job he moved to flat rock to> accept, and his only employment so far has benn sotting around the town hall cussing | the gowerment and bragging on hooey long, the feller she expects to marry , is a perfect stranger; she met him at the county-seat fair last fall and fell in love with him on a flying jenny. the hard-feelings caused by the Ibet 4 parties betwixt holsum moore’s folks and art square’s peeple and the winkle outfit won’t wear out till » new genneration grow s up and for gets the social fudes thus started, if a woman dbn’t get an invite to a party in flat rock, that means that whoever failed to invite her to same is newer spoke to again.
