A LITTLE BIT OF BROADWAY ? J}Uk Anderson Chapter U. D. C. to Put on Play A wire from Miss Bessie V. Burkheimer of Wilmington this morning announces that she will arrive in the city Wednesday to put on "A Little Bit of Broadway," at the Academy of Music, the 4th and 5th of October. Miss Burk- ? ?heimer .will be pleasantly remem- | bered by those who took part in i or saw 'The Girl Who Dared," j about three summers ago. At a meeting: of Dick Anderson I Chapter ?. D. C. Friday afternoon j it was definitely decided to make this engagement with Miss Burk heimer. who had been in the city last month to see about it. The Chapter need3 money particularly for its educational work and the proceeds, from this play are to be used for this purpose. The Chapter has been in the habit of giving "an hundred dollar scholarship annually to a Sumter hoy or girl, but this year it is giv ing two. These have been award ed Misses Katherine McKagen and jMamie McCollum, who are attend ing Winthrop College, and are half'gift and half on an informal loan basis, without interest. Besides its own- scholarships the} Chapter in Sumter contributes! generously^ to every educatic nal i . fund in the state U. D. C. This year it has given to the. scholar ships supported by the South Carolina division at Winthrop j College, at. Confederate College, at j I'niversity of South Carolina (this latter being won by a* Sumter boy, Reese Joye by competitive ex- 1 amination): district scholarship at Winthrop., and district scholarship endowment at Coker College: to the Cunningham Memorial Schol arship at Peabody College,' sup ported by the General Organiza tion. In the past it did its share in raising the S50.0&0 scholarship fund for the General U*. D. C, a memorial fand to the Men of the South in the .late war, from which already some- 30 ex-service men have been helped to attend col leges and universities all over the country. The placing of books in libraries is also educational work and this Chapter desires to do some more work along that line. It has a small collection in the Sumter li brary now- and in other years has paid for a number of books on the children's shelves, these deal ing with the South and especially South Carolina. Dick Anderson Chapter U. D. C. asks the cooperation of the pub lice when it presents this play the first week in October, not only, be cause it feels its cause could not be more worthy; but also because it has with its plays, in the past, tried to give real entertainment and has worked hard towards this end. A few former productions here by this organization have been ,4The County Fair", "Fifi", "The Merry Minstrel Maids"," and the above mentioned "Girl Who j J)ared". RAID ON MOONSHINERS Sheriff Hurst Visits Big Bay Section Sheriff Hurst and two of the ru ral policemen made a raid in the Big Bay moonshine district Wed nesday and destroyed a dozen or more barrels of mash. They visit ed three locations where stills Were known to have been operat ed, but found no stills, the moon shiners having removed the appa ratus before officers arrived. The mash was poured out and contain ers destroyed. Evidence was ob tained that will lead to the arrest of several of the moonshiners. Hodge?McDanicI Mrs. Dorothy Hodge of the Tindal section, and Mr. J. E.

May the favors of good dame for tune follow this young pair iu their matrimonial venture, and carry them along the waya of peace and pleasantness. A leading light in the Big Bay Moonshining industry has a remedy for this form of lawlessness, which he explained to Sheriff Hurst when ' he was in that section on ofiVinl business. This'party told the sher iff that it was all wrong to worry the. moon*hin?*r.< by breaking up their stills and arresting the op erators, as that would not stop the making of liquor, but to arrest those who buy the liquor. The moonshiner said that just so long as the liquor drinkers in Sumter and eisewhere are ready to pay big prices for all the liquor thgt the Big Bay stills can produce the stills will be kept busy all The tim^. Hy 3?id the Bier Bay gang would not make any liquor if there was not a certain and profitable market for the output of the stills.

From White House [ Washington, Sept. 16.?Informa tion that President Harding had ] made up his mind definitely to veto the soldiers* bonus bill reached Senate leaders today from some of his close advisers. They said his message of disapproval would be sent to the House next Tuesday. - After receiving this word, the majority leaders made an informal preliminary canvass of the Senate, which was said to have shown 3-4 votes against overriding a veto, or 2 more than the number necessary to prevent final enactment of the bonus legislation. This margin was understood, however, to be regarded by some friends of the President as too nar row and they expected Mr. Hard ing v to call several Senators to the White House before Tuesday for a discussion of the situation. With many Senators absent from Wash ington, it was asserted by some tbat.it was difficult to assess Sen ate sentiment at this time. ?? ^ ? ' '?? ?

In making the recount the tell j ers found hundreds of ballots [which were not properly lilled out. j There were ten men in the running j and five were to be scratched on j the ballot.

Aaron Sapiro told! 3.000 farmers gathered here today j ! for a final big' rally before the j ; cooperative warehouses' opening j j in this belt, introduced by John i j R. Hufcheson as the "greatest au-! thority on cooperative marketing j l in the United States,*' Mr. Sapiro i j reviewed the work of the associa-1 jtion. its organization and how it! i had accomplished what the oppon-; ! ems of the association had dcclar- j led was impossible, in the matter ; of finance, warehousing, grading land selling tobacco all within the last year, and said. . "Our assooia' j tion has already made good and j now has the best experts in the I tobacco trade working for the j growers, not against them." One by one he took up some of the ! charges of the opposition and chal j lenged them to refute his state ment. Throughout the meeting. whei?\ growers sat sweltering for more than an hour and a half a n ] hung ! on every word of Mr. Saplro's talk, j he was interrupted with cheers, j laughs and at the end was given ! an ovation with the whole house on its feet, cheering. He promised ithe growers that the association was going after some . of the big (men tvho are among the few who ;have broken their, contracts with the association. He challenged any ! auction system man who did not I believe the association would en Iforce its contracts to come or? and j sign up his tobacco. He even of i fered to pay such a man's entrance j fee, and promised that he'??would j personally come down to Danville iand show him up in court. He [said 80 suits against contract vio j lators and persons who are spread ing- malicious propaganda against j the association are now in prepara j tion and promised that the fi 'sl cf j these legal actions would begin Tiext jweek in the states of North Caro ' iind and -South Carolina. Referring to question's raided by' | merchants; and others concerning ? advance payments, he declared that j these had nothing to do whatever ! with the sales price of the associa tion tobacco, but are fixing a eon I servative loan value to protect the S growers "against price manipulation > which might make it necsesary for Ithe association to put up additional [collateral with the-'banks. Tellin.-j i how the association had already : made many large sales of tobacco, j he said that in South Carolina some j grades had sold for four times ? the advance payments. He asked the members of the association why the auction crowd j was fighting them if they thought ! the association would not work, j He said the reason they.were fight ? ing the grower* was because the j speculators and pinhookers knew i it was working and that "their rday is done." Mr. Sapiro predicted j that after this year there will be ?^practically no auction system in j Virginia. S He will speak Saturday at South ; HiU.
