LET CONGRESS LOOK INTO IT
That was a very wise and timely
resolution introduced into th * House
by Mr. Park, of Georgia. It authorizes
the Federal Trade Commission to inquire
into the causes which made tin
great difference between the cost of
raw cotton and the manufactured
product. It was referred to the committee
on appropriations. It is to be
hoped that the resolution will not go
to sleep ill the committee room. It
is a very important matter and one
that should have careful and prompt
attention.

When the old Confederates met in
Atlanta recently at their annual reunion
the pick pockets picked tiu
pocket of .Mr. Pickett.
WHAT OF THE FUTURE?
There is a wide dilfcrencc of opinion
as to the result of the war upon
conditions in Europe. One report
was that Germany was impoverished
and her material resources were so
badly damaired that it will rciniirc
years fur her to recuperate. I'pon
the other hand it is stated upon pretty
good authority that Germany
came out of the war in better condition
materialy and with Unreal
injury than any other European
nation that was enquired
in the conflict. The latter
suggestion has much in its favor.
Germany was not overrun b\ th
armies of the Allies. II r factor
and various industries were not harrassed.
In an interview Henry Morganthau,
who had ample opportunity
to investigate conditions mane th<
hroad statement th?.t Germany ean e
out of the war "a perfect lynamo of
strength." Her OdO.ot'O people
have been s?h'jclcd and ha d< in d by
the conflict and they have lean <1
economy and self denial. As a worker
the German is recognized the world
over as plodding and industrious, with
great energy and wonderful romper
ating power.
Instead of wasting sympathy on
Germany it is better to keep vigilant
watch on her movements. With her
big factories comparatively unharmed,
with all of her numerous imlu
Lru-3 ui'irinnnuiK t'u" worn "I manufacturing
to supply her need ;u,<l the
needs of the world Germany may soon
become a rival of the nations that
were so cruelly damaged hy tin- war.
It is suggested that Germany may
make an alliance with Russia and ultimately
use millions of Russian pen
pie to aid in extending her manufacturing
and other resources. Worse
than this is the fact that by a coalite
with Russia Germany may rehabilitate
her military resources and become
aj;ain the menacing power she was
when she started the world war.
Of course, it is recognized that the
peace terms imposed upon her by the
Allies have impaired to a ureat extent
the tip;htin^ ability of Germany, but,
unless the League of Nations is aodpted
by the United States, Germany w ill
he in condition not only to ifive this
country trouble, but will lake ad
vantage of the strife and discord pre
vailing anions her weaker neighbors.
It will be a poor legacy that we will
leave to posterity if after the years
??f bloodshed and the wreck and ruin

)f war, the German war lord will ^
Again threaten the peace of th,b world.
With the League of Natons in
force Germany will not dare autagonze
the combined nations of th world,
jut will be compelled to accept the '
aluation and thus become one of the '
ijreat body of peaceful, industrial, |
patriotic people that will make the j
world a better place to live in. If (
this is not done we may bequeath
conditions fearful to contemplate. *
In this connection, here is an ex- '
tract from one of President Wilson's? i
speeches in the West that is pertinent ,
to this suggestion: I
"My friends, on last Decoration ,
Day 1 went to a beautiful hillside j
near l'aris, where was located the t
cemetery of Surcsncs, a cemetery giv- (
en over to the burial of the American ,
dead. Hehind me on the slopes was 1
rank upon rank of living American ,
soldiers, and lying bfore me upon the ,
levels of the plain was rank upon
pank of departed American soldiers. (
Right by the side of the stand where |
I spoke there was a little group of j
French women who had adopted ,
those graves, had made themselves <
mothers *?t those dear ghosts by put
tiritf flowers every day upon those .
uraves, taking tli- in as their own ,
sons, their own beloved, beause they
itatl die?l in the same eause ?France
was free ami the world was free beeause
America had conic! I wish (
sonn men nt publie life who are now ,
oppe-injr tlie settlement for which
these men died could visit such a spot
as that. I wish the thought that
comes out of those jrraves could penetral<
their consciousness. I wish that
they could feel the moral obligation
that rt st - upon us not to p-o back on
those hoys, but to see the thin^
through, to see it through to the end
and make p;ood their redemption of
the world. 1'or nothing less depends
upon this decision, nothing less
iuia the liberation and salvation of
the world."

VILL BORE FOR OIL
IN MARLBORO COUNTY
Secretary of State W. Banks Dove
las commissioned the Marlboro Oil
Developing Company, with a proKised
capital of $125,000, for the
>urpose of location: and developing
he oil deposits of that county, if any.
Dil experts from the Pennsylvania
ilolds have declared that there are
lnmistakable evidences of oil in vari>us
parts of South Carolina. Marl>oro
County seems to be one of the
nost promising fields and it is for the
>urpose of boring wells on the propcry
of Clitf 11. Jackson, at Five Forks,
hat this corporation has been organzed.
C. 11. Jackson, of Clio, and N.
. Ftidins, of Bennetlsville, are the
irganizers of the company. Seepage
>ii has come to the surface on the
lackson place, so there is no doubt
>f the existancee of oil under these
lands. The only question is whether
t will be in sufVicient .quantity to warrant
devi lopment. That it. is worth
trying the company is convinced.
Should a big strike be made the
Si 25,000 will turn into $125,000,000
