The operaLion Saturday involved the grafting into an old - convict of the inLersitial gland taken from a young prisoner sentenced to leath immediately after his execution. Such operations have, the report Htates, resuted in a marked restoration of mental as well as phylical strength. It is gratifying to note, from this report, that the developnent of the American medical science s keeping fully abreast with that of France in this important line of reearch and experimentation. ' * Mitu? ? SECOND HONORS CO ' ' * TO SOUTH CAROLINIAN Mineola, N. Y. Oct.'20?South Carolina captured second honors in the transcontinental air flight and return when Capt. J. O. Donaldson, landed at Roosevelt field at 10:30 today. Capt. Donaldson, who made the 5,400 mile pourney in a single-seated S. E.-5 airplane is a native of Greenville, S. C. He was in Europe fourteen months as a member of the American general headquarters squu^ron and also saw service with the British army near Dunkifrk. Capt. Donaldson took part in seven of the major operations of the American army, and while flying over Douia shortly after the Chateau Thierry drive, was attacked by three German planes. He brought down two of them but was captured by the third later, however, escaping to Belgium. GOVERNMENT MAY ACT IN LONGSHOREMEN STRIKE The failure of the plans for the settlement of longshoremen strike at New York, which has caused the tying up of a large portion of the Atlantic shipping, seems likely to cause vigorous action by the United States Government. The first intimation of such action was furnished by a statement issued u.. cl:?: n j ?1-2 t uy me omiipiiiK ouuru in wnicn a warning was given strikers regarding Government ships. The statement is interpreted as intimating that, if the regular longshoremen refuse to return to work at wages fixed by the National Adjustment Commission, soldiers will be called on to look after these vessels. Already a number of steamships in Government service are being cared for by the military and apparently the Government will tolerate no further delay in the unloading or loading vesels of this character. The statement issued by the Shipping Board reads os follows: "The delay on the part of the longshoremen on the Atlantic Coast in abandoning their work in the unauthorized strike in violation of their agreement to abide by the awards of the National Adjustment Commission, makes it necessary for the United States Shipping Board to give immediate consideration to the working of the ships under its control. This delay is resulting in great inconvience to the public and is a serious interruption in the operation of the merchant marine and is an appalling and economic waste. This is a condition that cannot be permitted to continue .nd a remedy must be found at once to sustain these awards and carry on the business in the country."

A LONG FELT WANT If anything came to fill a longfelt want it is the cotton picker recently a|inouncpd. Ifi f\ cotton picker can appear that will do the work and one will come some day, it will have the world at its feet as completely as the gin has. There is the weakest spot about the cotton production, and the growing necessities of humanity make the cotton picker the most desired new invenvention ahead of the mechanical intelligence of the country. Handpicking is too slow for this age.? Raleigh News and Observer. .
