Anderson, Jan. 15.-A 20 mile au tomobile trip from Greenville today completed the long trip from Bol shevik ridden Russia to their new home here of the seven Russian chil dren brought to this country by Rear Admiral Newton A. McCully, former United States high commnissioner at Sebastopol. Mrs. Carrie 7. MeCully, the ad miral's mother, and a delegation of friends met the little strangers in Greenville today and gave them a lunehoon. On arrival in Anderson, the admiral's home, friends and relatives turned out by the score t. welcome ig and his wards. In the welcoming party were some 20 Anderson children, many of them cousins of the admiral and the Russian visitors fraternized with them at once. The handicap -of language and the rather curious look with which the visitors had greeted the older -per sons were forgotten as the children mingled. At the McCully home a basket full of Christmas horns was distributed and 'soon the little for eigners were -blowing as lustily as army trumpeters and disporting them selves in .gay capers all over the house ,With the American ehildren. They seemed as thoroughly at home as if they had been -born here. When the Anderson children left the McCully home the little Russians bade them good-bye with a quaint courtesy. Admiral McCully, who is 53 years of age, had all the appearance of a proud father as he presented his wards to old friends and relatives here and happi ly remarked that none of them had been ill since he took them in his care. He wds reluctant to go into details of his future plans but indicated that Anderson will be the permanent home of the children although after a month or so here some of theni will be taken to Washington, where he maintains a residence also. "I shall have to take my mother's wishes into consideration in making plans," Admiral McCully said, "and she has not yet had an opportunity to say what she thinks about the mat ter." Many friends of the McCully fam ily here are said to have offered to adopt one of the youngsters but it is utnderstood the admiral has steadfast ly refused to -part with any of them, telling friends he is much in love with them. There 'will be a round of entertain ment for the children and also for the admiral. The first public welcome for the young Russians will be tomorrow morning at the First Baptist Sunday School, where a special program will be rendered. It is planned for the young Russians to sing religious songs C4 their own land >.s part of the ser vice. The admiral will le honor guest at a banquet next Thursday evening and is expected to return io Washington the latter part of next week. The children will b~e made at home hero with his mother until fInal plans are perfctedi for them. Greenville, Jan. 15.-A mail :pouch filled with letters from all parts of the nation askIng permission to adopt the seven RussIan children .which he has brought to America, caused Rear Admiral Newton A. McCully to state here this afternoon that under no con sideration will ho part from any of the children. Some of the naval officer' correspondents would adopt the chil dren singly, while others expressed the desire to take the seven as a whole. The admiral and children were guests at a luncheon during the few hours they stopped over here en route to Anderson. Hudldreds met them at the railway station when they stopped from th/ train, and scores escorted thenm on the automobile trip from Greenville to the admiral's home at Anderson.

Spartanburg, Jan. 15.- Vhe a ssdm bly room of the Chamber of. Commerce, was filled with representative farmers from Spartanburg county this morn ing to hear Aaron Sapiro, of San Fran cisco, the attorney for 14 separate farmers' marketing associations, make an address on the advisability of the cotton farmer organizing a co-opera tive commodity association. Mr. Sapiro pointed out In a forceful way the plan fllowed by the California farmer in organizing. There was a time, he said when the Western farmer was at the mercy of the speculator, and often sold his commodity at a loss. There was no definite plan of financ ing or marketing. For years there was experimental work but out of that has been evolved tho only successful plan. The speaker (1id not fail to picture the condition of the cotton farmer as lhe applears to the Westerner, lie pointed to the home without any conveniences, the wife and children working in the field, and the crop being sold for half what it takes to live on. Hie said the average farmer realized about $750 when cotton sells at 20 cents and sta tistics of the government show that it! takes $1,600 for the average family to live on. lie said that if the farmer cannot get a iprofit out of his cotton he should Quit, "but" he said, "the error is not with cotton, it is with you." H~e gave the plan of organization which is, briefly, to organize the commodity, not the county or state. The idea is to get a large percentage of the producers of a commodity in the organization to get them in for a number of years and then to find a market for what he pro duces. WELLS A.
