YOUNG RUSSIANS
GXYEN WILCONE
Anderson Greets Admiral McCally and
Wards. Vind Cheerful Rome.
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.
Harding Headquarters Burned.
Marion, Ohio, Jan. 23.-The home of
Charles B. Christian, Jr., next door to
the home of President-elect Harding
and used by him as his.headquarters,
was destroyed by fire this morning.
All campaign documente stored in the
building, although somewhat damaged
by water are thought to .have been
saved. The desk at which the .presi
dent-elect met'in conference with the
"best minds" of the country also was
removed from the burning building but
slightly marred by the flames.
The .fire started from an over-heat
edl furnace. The house was un-occu
pied.

PASTOR ACQUITTED
IN ATLANTA COUNT
Dr. Ridley Cleared of Charge of Em.
breing Woman. Strong Language
Used.
Atanuta, Jan. 2-2.-Charges of "dis
orderly conduct," made 'by Mrs. J. D.
Hamiltpn against the Rev. Caleb A.
Ridley, -D. D., pastor of a large church
here, were dismissed in police court
late today. Many members of the
elderly .pastor's congregation were
among the spectators that crowded the
court room and loudly cheered the re
corder's verdict. Scores crowded
around and shook his hand.
Dr. INdley denied Mrs. Hamilton's
charges that he tried 'to put his -arm
around her as he talked to her yes
terday on her front porch and Mrs.
. L. rDedingfield testified she was on
her porch, hardly eight feet away at
the time and declared there was noth
ing to the charges. Dr. Ridley said he
had gone to the Hamilton front porch
at the request of Mrs. Hamilton who
said a workman on a nearby building
had tried to flirt iw4th 'her.
Mrs. Hamilton repeated her charges
in -police court and 'Dr. Ridley admit
ted that last night when her husband
called on him for an apology lie had
told .Hamilton ":please go to hell."
Dr. Ridley said he had npthing to
apologize to the Hamiltons for and
never would but that for the remarks
he made to Hamilton he would
"apologize to my God and the people
of my church."
After he had declined to make an
apology last night the pastor was ar
rested and released on $100 bond.
Hamilton was said to have threatened
him with a pistol, but neighbors In
tervened.
In testillying t(is afternoon Mrs.
fHamilton declared she had not invit
ed 'Dr. Ridley to come up on the porch,
but that -as he :passed she nodded to
him and he.came in and sat with her
in a swing and began playing with
her baby. Then, she said, followed an
attempt to embrace her and remarks
to which she objected.
TELLS OF PLAN TO
ORGANIZE FARMERS
Attorney For Western Market Asoela.
tiois Explains Plan at Spartanburg.
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.
