A full MEMORIAL CAMPAIGN TO BE PUSHED Central Committee at Columbia Con tident that the Required Sum wil1 be Raised. Columbia, Jan. 5.--Following a con feronce with former Governor Richard T. Manning, of Sumter, vice chairman of the South Carolina Memorial Com mission who was in Columbia, Henry W. Fair of this city, accepted the chairmanship of the Richland County Memorial Committee. Mr. Fair said that he would build u; a thorough and ellicient corps of workers for the memorial drive in Co lumbia and Richland county, and was sure that the allotment of $60,000 would be quickly subscribed. 11e hopes to have the quota in hand by the end of the month. believing that the people vill liberaly subscribe to the erection of the building in com memoration of those South Carolin lans who foug;ht and fall in the World War if they are only approached and have the 'roject expla'ned to them. The headquarters of the memorial commission here say: that very en couraging reports are being received from the county chairmen during the past few weeks, and that the, indica tions are Ihat the camnaign for a fund of $400,000 will be a successi with a little more time alloted to a few of the counties. A number of-.counties are contentplating putting on cam paigns this niontlh and -pushing through their riuotas in an intensive drive. Mr. Manning. after reading the re ports from the various counties and having conference with Governor Cooper, Chairman of the Commission, is very mitch encoutraged with the t outlook. After a few weeks when he can take time frot pressing personal t( busines;, the ex-Governor intends to 0 give a great deal of his efforts and en ergy to the campaign. it is probable 14 that he will go into the various coun- o lies and ass't the chairmen there in 1 their efforts. NU'fAlt CONTROL STAYS FOl 1920 President Wilson Signs the McNary Measure. Government Not Likely to Purehatse Cuban Sugar. 'Washington, 'Tan. 1, .- President Wilson ha. signed the .icNary bill centiming the :United .tates sugar equalization hoard through 1920. It was announced today at the white house that his signature had been attached before midnight last night. Secretary Tumuulty, in making the announeement, isse(I this state ment.: "The president h'as signed the sugar control bill. The. bill confers discretion on the president in the matter of purchasing sugar from Cuba. It is doubtful whether it will be practical or wise for the presi dent to 'xercise th power con ferred. so far as the per chase and distribution of sugar are concerned." Some of the Cuban sugar has al eandy been imurehase-l and there is no central control over sugaru in Cubah~, its there was last year, anid it might t hercefore be impossible for the government now to step in atnd purchase thie stugar without increas lng the plrice to the consumer. The bill, however, continues the l icens ing -power also and this ipower may be usedi to assist in controlling the Profiteering among distribiutors. :.\itt(h Ctuban stugar is cominag in now and the in dicat ions are that tirices f have reachted t heir peak and t hat t there will he a tendency for prices ~ to fall in die next twvo weeks.
