Threaded Rubber insulates the plates instead of separating them the way wood separators do. No carbonizing, puncturing, checking or cracking, because Threaded Rubber Insulation re tains all the valuable insulating qualities of rubber and is not affected by acid. That's one reason why we're strong for Willard Threaded Rubber Batteries. Laurens Storage Battery Company W.

After having frustrated two attempts to burn his house and having his suspicions aroused that the fires were of incendiary origin, Crater Martin, a young married man 'of the Round Peak section of Surry county, :went to the home of a neighbor to borrow a gun to protect his home tho first of the week and was shot in the bhek from ambush on his return home. lie was carried to a hospital at Mt. Airy and the bullet removed and he will recover, physicians say, unless complications result. Martin awoke to find 'his house on fire, but it had made very little head way and he extinguished the flames. He tought the fire was of incendiary origin, and lay awake for some time and again he discovered his house was afire. Again he Iput it out. An investigationl showed that some one had stripped the cloth from his tobacco bed, stuffed it with leaves and put it under his house and applied a match. ie went to a neighbors's house and secured a gun and on his return was shot in the back, the ball ranging downward, breaking the thigh bone. The wounded man is said to have had some difficulty 'with a young man in that section but no arrests have been made. * * * * * * * * * * . . * * * * EK OM1 NEWS * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 'Ikiom, April 4.--The farmers are progressing nicely with their work.

Rellef for Cotton Growers, Other Farmers, and for Soldiers on List, Melleved that Message Will Not Deal with International Relations. Washington, April 2.--Prdeparation of his first message to congress and the closing up of a dozen or more big appointments will keel) President Harding's hands full next week, Ile must have his mind made up on a number of knotty domestic prob lemis by the time Congress meets, a 'week from Monday. le also hopes to send the Senate a batch of important nominations during the first week of the new session. 'President Harding :has made few decisions on the important legisla tive problems thus far. Con-gress, Hampered by an unwieldy majority, is looking to President Harding's first formal message for guidance in the work of the special session. Legislative leaders holpe his mes sage will settle the wrangl over wheth er tariff or revenue legislation shall -be taken up first, as to what form emergency shall take and whether the anti-dumping, the ad valorem valua tion and emergency tariff 'bills shall be lumped together into one measure or kept separate. * Among other subjects under con sideration for discussion in the mes sage to congress are: 1. Reorganization of the United States Shipping Board into a on'e man body and creation of a govern ment owned corporation for operation of the shipping board ships to facili tate the transaction of business. An other suggestion is that Secretary of Commerce Hloover be entrusted with the operation of the government's fleet. 2. fiscal iplicies. Harding favors repeal of the excess profits tax. He has not announced what he proposes to oVer in place of this revenue pro ducer. His reemzendations on tax re vision and tariffs are expected to be confliec to -general statements of pol cy and 'will include an emphatic de claration for the protective principle. 3, Relief for the railroads. The president is exqpectcd to do little more than point out the seriousness of the situation and await the findings of the senate investigation which Senator Cummins intends to start at once. Un til this is concluded, t-he president In disposed to rely on relief which can 'be effected through the Interstate Com ierce Commission's control over rates and the Rail-way Labor Board's juris diction over wages. 4. Agriculture relief.

Shipping rates, President Harding is advised, are 8o high that foreign :beef and corn can be brought into the Eastern iqonsuming centers more cheaply than the pio ducts of Middle Western farms. Wool growers and cotton men are -in need of credits than anything else. A delega tion of cotton gronw'ers today asked President Harding to 'procure aid for them through the wai finance corpora tion. 5. Stoldier relief. A committee head ed by Charles ,0. Dawes of Chicalgo, is working out recommendations which probably will -be accepted b the Ipres ident. 6. 'Reclamation. Coal, oil and lum ber interests have made recommenda tions for opening up more of the na tion's natural reaources. Western sen ators have urged elaborate irrigation projects as a means of opening up more lanl for agriculture and for re lieving unemployment in the cities, by drawing .more people to the soil. ,7. Development of Alaska. Ad visers 4have told the president that a deplorable condition exists there due to neglect. 'He exipected to send See retary of the Interior Fall there this year and may go along himself if he can find time to leave Washington. 8. Repeal of -Panama C0anal tolls on American ships, is favored by -Presi dent Harding. It is expected the president will re serve discussion of foreign policies for a separate message. le Is not like ly to have 'his foreign program definite.. ly developed until the new ambassa dors to Great Britain and -France have done over the ground at their respec tive posts. The naming of George Harvey to the London post and Myrn T. Herrick to Paris takes out of the way two of the biggest appointments, domestic or foreign, the ipresident wIll have to make. He -hopes to have other ap pointments ready for congress when it meets a week from Monday.
