THEY WOULD NAIL
PRICES To MAST
Meeting of the Hard
Yarn Spinners.
THE SESSIONS SECRET
1t is Known However, That Spinners
of Hard Yarns Have Met to Resist
the Downward Tendency of
Prices For Their
Product.
(By the Associated Press. }

Charlotte, n. c.. Jan. 5.--In response
to a call issued by the advisory board
Of the hard yarn spinners association.
formed here last September. about
sixty mill men from various sections
of the South assembled here to-day.
These men. it is said. represent some
thing like fifty per cent. of the spindles
in the Southern States engaged in The
manufacture of hard yarns.
The meeting was called to order
shortly before 3 O'Clock by j. a.
Abernethy, of Lincolnton, chairman of
the advisory board, and j. w. Fries,
of Winston-Salem. was chosen 20 pre-
side. The session was held behind
closed doors and continued until D..
m. when adjournment was taken un-
til O'Clock. The afternoon session
was given over to an exhaustive dis,
cussion of the best course to pursue
in order to keep UP the price of yarns.
1t is stated that there is already 4
tendency to put down yarn quotation,
with cotton and the spinners are de-
termined to uphold them.
Among the nrst business this after
noon was the reading of a resolution
and agreement for strict adherence 70
the scale of prices as fixed weekly by
the advisory board. Along with this
resolution was offered a form OF iron-
clad contract by which each mill
pledged itself under no circumstances
to accept less than the figures agreed
upon by the advisory board.
This plan of fixing the price oe
yarns weekly as the conditions of the
market seemed 10 warrant, which was
inaugurated by the association upon it's
formation last September worked SO
well that it was deemed by some AZ
best to clinch adherence TO it by Il.
signed agreement. There is also some
disposition to attach a cash forfeit 70
make the provision more effective.
No agreement regarding this o.
other matters relating to the trad
had been reached when adjournment
was taken at O'Clock.
The session is secret and the partici-
pants in the conference decline to give
out information before final adjourn
ment.

PLEA FOR FORESTS
President Roosev t
Makes An Address.
Wood is an Indispensable Part OF the
Material Structure Upon Which
Civilization Resis," He
Saws.
Says.
(Bv the Associated Press. }

Washington, Jan. 5.5-President
Roosevelt was the principal speaker
at a meeting of the American Forest
Congress held this afternoon at the
National Theatre. AS the President
appeared before the immense audience
which filled every part of the House
the people received him standing
while the theatre rang with applause
an the orchestra played patriotic
air.
The President said in part:
THE place of the forest in the life
of any nation is tar too large TO be
described in the time at my command
This is peculiarly true of it's place in
the United States. Wood s an indis-
pensable part of the material struc-
ture upon which civilization rests and
civilized life makes continually great
Ell demands upon the forest
1T is a fair question then whether
the vast demands of the future upon
our forests are likely to be met. I'm
less the forests of the United States
can be made ready to meet the vast
demands which this growth will in
eVitabiy bring, commercial disaster is
inevitable. Both the production of the
great staples upon which our prosper
ity depends and their movement in
commerce throughout the United
States are inseparably dependent upon
the existence of permanent and suit
able supplies from the forest at
reasonable cost
IF the present rate of forest de-
struction is allowed TO continue a tim
Der famine is obviously inevitable.
Fire, wasteful and destructive forms
of numbering and legitimate use, are
together destroying our forest re-
sources far more rapidly than they are
being replaced. What such a famine
would mean to each of the industries
OF the United states it is scarcely
possible to imagine. Fortunately the
remedy is a simple one
NJ. JusEerand, the French Ambassa-
dor, delivered an address on the for
est policy of France, describing the
methods ~ which the pople of France
conserve their forests.
Other speakers at the session Were
Is. l.. Virgins, vice chancellor of the
University of the South. who pressed
the necessity OF the study of forestry
in the great educational institutions
of tn country as the oVerShadowing
question OF the twentieth century; and
Representative Ohm Lamb, of Virginia,
who depicted the disastrous results
on the 100000 farmers of the coun-
try of the denudation and unnecessary
destruction of the forests. Mr.. Lamb
said the farmers of the country fol
whom he spoke. hailed with appro-
baton the work Of the Forest Con-
greSs and expressed the hope that.
through their interest in practical for
estry, renewed growth of forests might
be rendered an accomplished fact in
the Atlantic States particularly, and
throughout the country.

We're absolutely necessary both to

Replying to a statement by Mr.
Bartitt (Ga.) that in spite of the gov
ernment's recent reports the cotton
that had come into seaports each day
had been about half as much as it
was last year, Mr.. Lowering declared
that it was because of the boast of the
men of the South that they were hold

Sims Defends the Reports.
Maintaining that the government es-
Inmates ARE marvels of accuracy.
when the vastness of the undertaking
was considered, Mr. Sims (Tenn.) saI
that even if they were a million bales
wrong there would be no justification
for the adjustment Of the reports. IN
ever yinstance he said the estimated
Weld of cotton by the Agricultural
had been less than It
turned out to be when gathered and
marketed.

The position Of private secretary being
strictly of a personal nature it was cX-

criticism will of course be made, as

OF a brother to more public posi-

Superior courts must eXDend every
year from 800 to 1000 in expenses
while away from home the travelling
expenses which are necessary to the
supreme Court justices are practically
nothing, being in fact no more than
those involved in railroad fares for
occasional trips to and from their
homes.
Among those who are urging the
bill particularly is Mr.. Clement Man
Iy, of Winston. who stated last night
that he considered the bills both for
the increase of the Governors and
the judges" salaries measures of an
importance which was great at the
present time and would constantly in
crease as the cost OF living became
more dear and the earning capacity
of the professional and business men
of the State, was augmented by the
widening avenues of profitable en-
deavor which are being opened up in
the South and in tho State.
In support of their views, the
friends of the bills carrying the In
creased salaries were yesterday eX-
hibiting the following interesting
table and data regarding the salaries
of Federal Judges and the judicial
officers number of States:
In 1918, when the Supreme Court
of North Carolina was first ectab-
