? l&e Sumter County Chamber of
Commerce is again confronted with i
the important duty of taking- the lead;
in another matter of vital interest notj
?^niy to the business interests of Sum- j
ter. but'one in which thousands of j
^cotton producers in Sumter, Lee and j
Ciarendon conuties who sell their cot- ;
ton, and do their trading- in Sumter's j
stores, and wholesale establishments '
and deposit their hundreds of thou-;
sands of dollars either directly from
-their own pockets, or indirectly
-through Sumter's mercantile estab
? lishments where these cotton growers
.spend most of their money are also
vvery much interested. *
- Harby. & Company, of Sumter, one
of the most extensive exporters of cot
ton in the Southern States, and If -ge
? buyers of wagon cotton besides, have
called- upon the secretary of , Cham
ber of Commerce to "get busy" getting
the board of directors of the Cham
ber of Commerce to "get busy" mak
l tag somebody else "get busy" doing
something about the inadequate facili
ties for handling local cotton. Major
A. C. Phelps, general manager for]
Harby & Company in his letter to the {
^hamher says in part: "It is now j
: the first of June and steps should be
taken to immediately have the neces
sary facilities for handling the new
?rop. Present facilities are now.
congested, and we suggest that you
bring this matter to the attention'of
the'Bo?rd of Directors and agitate the
subject immediately."
^ Secretary Reardon said yesterday
that he would appear before the
?Bo4rd of County Commissioners to
roorrew"corning .with a committee.qf^
fcusinese ihei: and' cotton growers to '
~?^~3?aM? .^s?^o^ingf^c^uld J*e*.--diMMH
?ro^^^eCcounty authorities. If'iy
[is apparent that the county commis
sioners are powerless or unwilling to
; cooperate it is the intention of the of
! fleers of the Chamber of Commerce
t to make this proposition a part of the
j program of discussion for next Thurs
|day evening's mass meeting to dis
cuss cooperative financing of a
scheme to erect sufficient residence
and business establishment buildings
to meet the demands of the progres
sive city of Sumter.
Just exactly what the status regard
ing the responsibility for supplying
cotton handling facilities* that is pub
lic weighing facilities, is not clear to
the officers of the Chamber of Com
merce until they can secure further
light regarding existing laws covering
this matter. As public weighing is
however compulsory, by State statur
tory laws, and inasmuch as the public
cotton weighers are elected, controll
ed, ?nd supervised by the County
Board of Commissioners and the City
Council of Sumter, this seems to place
o considerable portion of the burden
of supplying weighing facilities on the
county and city government.
That something has to be done very
soon, if Sumter is to continue as the
largest interior cotton market in South
?Carolina can not be denied. What is
the best method of controlling cot
ton weighing facilties? Should the
Weighing platforms be owned partly
or entirely by the county, or should
the county lease platforms from the
railway companies and the Sumter
Cotton Warehouse Company, or some
other local cotton warehouse com
pany?
Is there. any provision by law for
the county and city or for either to
finance, without special legislation the
erection of cotton weighing platforms,,
owned jointly by the county, city, rail
way companies, or some local cotton
warehouse company.
Should the matter fail of solution at
the hands of the county commission
ers then it is plainly a matter.for next
Tuesday eyening^s mas smeeting when
there will be present merchants, cot
ti%nr^:ers,;.cotton, producers, bankers,
and other business men.

Surprise Party ?0
j Father Mahoney
In Honor of His Eighteenth An
niversary as Priest
I As a j manifestation of the high j
, esteem in which the priesthood is held j
! by a ' Cathloic . congregation and in
? recognition of his accomplishments in
1 Sumter during the past one and ?
j half years as pastor of St. Anne-si
church, a surprise party was tender- j
ed Father Mahoney last evening by
the members of this parish, the occa
sion marking the eighteenth anniver
sary of his ordination.
The ladies came prepared to serve
refreshments, and .after taking charge
of the dining room and china press,
they began to hand out little niceties
for the inner man.
With ? few appropriate remarks, in
which he assured the recipient of the
love and affection which he is held
by his people, aside from the many
things accomplished in a material
way. a substantial purse was present
ed to Father Mahoney by Mr. Neill
O'Donnell in behalf of the congrega
tion. V
Father Mahoney's surprise was evi
dent and he feelingly responded to the
remarks of Mr. O'Donnell, assuring
those present of his desjre at all times,
nigiit and- day, to share with them
rheir sorrows and adversities as well
as their joys and pleasures, both
spiritual and temporal.
Father- James Quinn of Orangeburg,
a close friend . of Father Mahoney,
surprised the latter with his presence
during the evening, leaving early this
morning for one of his missions.
The anniversary of Father Mahon
ey's ordination occurred last Sunday,
June ..1st, and he tried to w p the
*4ate from his congregation, but the
information leaked out during ^a ser
mon by Father Hyland of Charles
ton, and then the ladies of. the Altar
and Sanctuary society got busy.
To a Catholic priest, the. anniversary
of hisordination, is similar in many
respects to the anniversary of the hap
py marriage of man and wife.
In taking to himself the Church as
his bride, the* priest practically gives
up aUi human ties of relationship on
earth and makes the vow <?f chastity
and obedience to his Bishop, forsak
ing all things for God and the spir
itual welfare of those under, his
charge, sacrificing h;s. life if neces
sary in order .to discharge his duties
in administering the Sacraments to
the dying and needy and enforcing the
requirements of his high office as
Ambassador of Christ.
Policy for Railroads
Interstate Commerce Commis
sion Would Be Authorized
to Regulate Railroads and
Wire Systems..
_
. Washington. June .2.?A permanent
peace time policy for common car
riers engaged in interstate commerce,
including railroad. telegraph, tele
phone and cable and radio camps, was
presented to congres stoday in a bill
drafted, by the interstate commerce
commission and introduced by Senator
Pomerene, Democrat, of Ohio and
Rejiresentative Esch, chairman . oh
the house interstate commerce com
mittee^
Regulation of the carriers by the
commission under broad and extended
powers is provided in the bill, which
is a proposed revision of the interstate
commerce act and is said to represent
generally, the commission's views on
existing transportation problems.
.The bill would give the commission
sweeping authority over rate service,,
extension, security issues and virtual
ly physical operations, including
traffic priorities, pooling and joint use
of physical property. Under the
measure the commission would have
power to continue the present regional
plan of railroad operation and also
extend it. to oil pipe lines, express and
all interstate wire companies. Among
the powers which would be given the
commission under the bill are:
Regulation and institution of rea
sonable rates and charges with pro
vision .that labor and other operating
costs shall be considered.
General supervision of operations,
including use. exchange, supply and
distribution of trains, cars, locomo
tives and other equipment.
Authority to establish and enforce
rules .regulations and practices, in
cluding divisions of rates and joint
use pf terminals, dock3, wire ex
changes and other facilities.
Regulation of new security issues
with authority to prohibit interlock
ing directorates.
Authority to require or prohibit
building of new lines, making of
leases, consolidations and extensions
and abandoning of service.
Establish or annulment or priority
or preference in transportation un
der permits.
Regulation of embargoes.
The bill provides for cooperation by
the interstate commerce commission
with State commissions in the form
er's investigations and specifically
denies power to the federal commis
sion over interstate affairs.

Washington. June 3.?Independence
ior the Philippine Islands was urged
by Governor Gen. Harrison today at
a joint session of house and senate
committees holding hearings on the
memorial presented yesterday by the
Philippine mission to the United
States.
"I am glad to go on record and sup
port most heartedly the request of
the Fhi lippin os that this government
grant them their independence,'' Gov
ernor Harrison sadi. "They have es
tablished a stable government which
meets the American requirements in

"The Japanese do not take kindly
to life in the trophies," said he, "and
I do not believe .they ever would at
tempt' to colonize a tropical country."

Not to Fly Home
Transport Will Bring Read's
Craft Back
Washington, June 2.?The Ameri
can naval seaplane NC-4, which arriv
ed at Plymouth, Eng., Saturday,
Atlantic flight, will not attempt a non
stop or any other kind of a flight back
to'the United States. Secretary Daniels
said today. The seaplane will be dis
sembled and shipped to this country.
The secretary of the navy contem
plated no attempt at nonstop trans
Atlantic flight in the near future as
the navy did not desire to make a
spectacular showing, was not in any
"competition for trans-Atlantic hon
ors and did not favor "stunt" flying.
Secretary Daniels declared that the
navy is content to rest on its laurels
for the present and that the NC-4 will
be brought back to this country on
board the U.. S. S. Aroostook. The
crews will return later on board gov
ernment vessels.
The NC-4 flight was purely in the
interest of aerial science, he said.
"After we have compiled all of the
data gathered during this flight being
made confident by our mistakes and
reconstructed our planes to conform
with the lesson we have learned, it
will then be time to begin considering
further experiment in trans-Atlantic
flying. Until then, we are satisfied,"
Secretary Daniels added. /
Asked if the crew' q. fthe NC boat
would go to Paris,. Secretary Daniels
said that they would go ..if President
Wilson or Admiral Benson sent. for
them. Otherwise they will. return to
the United States shortly and aviation
officials will begin the work of com
piling the data obtained and begin a
series of experiments m an effp^t . to;
place it in effect.
Experiments are now being con
ducted with the C type of lighter than
air flying craft and it' is possible
when the next attempt at a trans
oceanic flight does eome that one of
the. big dirigibles will bemused. -
. Messages \ of congratulation to the
navy upon {he success of its exploit
were received today from King George
Of England, the Brazilian minister of
marine, General Gugliemotti, in behalf,
of the Italian army and the British
air ministry. That from King George
said:
"The king wishes to congratulate
his excellency, the American ambassa
dor, on the safe arrival of the Amerir
can seaplane and ask him if he will
convey his congratulations to ? Mr. I
Daniels and the. American navy."
"Allow me to present to you on be-'
half of the Italian army and in my
name my most he^arty congratulations
for the splendid "performance accom- f
plished by the NC-4 in crossing fromj
America to Europe/* General Guglie- j
motti said.
"The successful crossing of the At
lantic is first accomplished by the
1 United States, naval flying corps,"
cabled the Brazilian minister.
Europe's Food Supply I
Hoover Teils of Preliminary
Survey
Paris, June 3.?A preliminary sur
vey of the import necessities of Eu
rope except Russia shows that .he
area will need 700,000,000 bushels.of
wheat and rye at a minimum.or 850,
000,000 bushels as a possible maxi
mum, Herbert C. Hoover, head of the
allied relief organization, said in a
statement issued today. The export
surplus of wheat and rye from the
larger exporting countries indicate
that the needs of Europe can be met.
Mr. Hoover estimates the exporta of
the. United States at 470.000,000 bush
els. Consumption in the United States
has increased to a remarkable degree,!
he says.
"Through our organization and co-.
operation with the various govern- j
ments." the statement says, "we have,
completed a preliminary survey of the
food prospects of Europe and the
import necessities, outside Russia for
the harvest year beginning August .1, j
and the world's.supplies available to
meet these needs. We estimate the'
total prospective European yield of j
wheat and rye outside Russia, as of
May 1*. after deducting seed at 1,55.0,- i
000,000 bushels.. This indicates a crop !
of about 77 per cent. of. pre-war. nor- j
mal. The pre-war consumption out-1
side of seed was about 2.500,000 j
bushels, indicating a . net import of J
about 950.000 bushels if consumption
were normal next year. The some
what diminished populations and the
diminished buying power militate
against, full normal consumption, but
the least possible consumption with j
the maintenance of public health we
estimate at 2.250.000,000 busheis or
an import on a minimum basis of
about 700,000,000. bushels."

A Sane New Ehgiaad View of South
ern Cotton Conditions. /
(.Manufacturers Record, Baltimore,
Directly contrary to the unjust crit
icisms of some New England people
and papers against the .South and the
effort of this section to. deyelop its
diversified agriculture instead of con
centrating its farm activities so largely
upon cotton, is a recent,'address by
Mr. Rufus R. Wilson, Secretary of the
National Association of Cotton Manu
facturers, representing practically the
I entire cotton mill industry of the East,
j Mr. Wilson has a very sane . under
j standing of the Southern situation,
i ana tne spirit of his address delivered
I before the Texas Cotton Association is
j entirely different from the spirit j>t
the statement recently issued by Mr.
Durfee. chairman of the Cotton-Buy
ing Committee of the New* England
Cotton Association. ' We believe that
Mr. Wilson, and not Mr. Durfee, rep
] resents the intelligent views of the in
i teligent cotton mill men of New Eng
land, notwithstanding some of the
unjust criticisms which the1 South has
to endure from a few papers who
think like Mr. Durfee.
After discussing the labor situation
throughout this country, Mr. Wilson
said:
"This is why low-priced cotton is^fco
longer to be looked for or advocated,
for jts spells benefit for neither the
grower, the shipper nor the spinner.
Neither does it seem to us of the
North that the present is an oppor
tune time to seriously consider, re
stricting cotton acreage. We believe,
instead, that the grower will most ef
fectively serve his own interests, if
hereafter he, makes cotton, his . ser
vant, not his master. One of your
ablest and most, far-seeing publicists
declared, not long ago, with careful
weighing of his words, that it would be
infinitely better-tor the South if it had
never raised a hale of cotton. He no
doubt meant , that, by permitting it
self to become a one-crop section, the
South had, fallen into the habit of
thinking in terras of cotton, of basing
its activities on cotton, and pf raising
cotton" primarily for the purpose .of
buying foodstuffs from other sections.
It is full time that such . a- system
should, join the things rejected, be
cause they have been weighed ig the
balance and found, wanting. JkX'. .
"What should take its place.. Adop
tion of the balanced, well-considered
methods which one of your agricultur
al leaders has aptly described as
?safe farming.' By 'safe farming', is
meant the planting of _a ?uf$cient
acreage .of food and .feed, crqps to sus
tain the. family and th8 livestock,, and
the remainder to cotton, where, the
latter can be grown tp advantage and
with profit. Thus the. planter secures
a rotation of crbps on the same; land,
and by so doing conserves and main
tains soil fertility, which, as you
Know, is rapidly exhausted'.hy,.plant
ing land continuously," to one erop. In
other words, -have constant care for
the quality of your soil, thus growing
larger and better crops on/ fewer
acres. Produce on the farms of the
South the food, and feed of the- South.
Trie man who stakes his all on a
single crop is a gambler in futures.
The cotton, grower should guard
against the disasters, which .are -the
penalty of such gambling by'first se
curing from his land, the living.Qf him
self and family, and then devoting the
balance to that wisely equalized pro
duction which is the surest guarantee
of prosperity.
"Indeed, the policy which, \ji %he
long run, will assure the largest
measure of profit for both grower and
spinner is the one wni~h, with due re
gard for the increase in consumptive
demand that keeps pace with growth
in population? will from year to year
make reasonably certain a. crop of uni
form volume and quality. A bumper
crop one -year and a small crop an
other means abnormal prices. When
it is followed by a bumper crqp, the
duct at these abnormal prices faces
a demoralizing cancellation of orders
or is compelled to fight for business
with competitors quick to take advan
tage >of the .slump in values, which. ,in
I r vitably waits upon an extraordinary
i crop. And then the grower, poorly
I rewarded for his time and .labor,
blames the shipper and the spinner
[ because the bottom, so to speak, has
fallen out of things.
"Let the grower's first thought be
not the number of acres he shall or
shall not plant to cotton, but the
quality of. the. cotton he is to grow-on
his land. Let him exercise the utmost
care in the selection of seed. Cotton
of less than seven-eighths of an inch
staple, as you know, is of about the
same spinning value as the bulk of
the cotton of India and China.. When
you raise cotton of. this grade, you
place yourself in competition with the
inferior product and the. under-paid
labor of the Orient. Js it not, there
fore, economic folly of the first order
to grow cotton in . America ?hat, by
reason of its grade and staple, ranks
in the markets of the world with the
cotton of India and China?"
In this statement Mr. Wilson took
very , strong ground in regard to'the
necessity of diversifying Southern ag
riculture and increasing the" produc
tion of food supplies. When the South
follows the advice given by Mr, Wil
son, which is in harmony with the po
sition taken for many years by the
Manufacturers Record, to produce
first of all food and feedstuffs and
then make cotton its surplus crop, it
,;cannot raise too much cotton. If cot
ton were selling at 50 cents a pound
it would be wiser in the long run for
the South to raise its own foodstuffs
and make cotton its surplus crop than
to coucentrate all of its . energy on
cotton raising.
We are glad to have from one of
the officials of the association repre
senting the cotton mill industry of
New England a statement so directly
in harmony with the position of the
Manufacturers Record, a statement
which is in such sympathetic interest
with the Southern grower as that
which we have quoted from Mr. Wil
son.
