lions to the North Carolina cities hav-
Ing water connections.
The protest includes resolutions
adopted last night ut a meeting of the
local organization, a copy of which
was mailed to President Fred N Tate.
OF the State organization: J. A. Tay-
Tor, of Wilmington. of President Tates
advisory committee, and to every daily
paper in the State. In the resolutions
the local branch calls on the State
association as a whole to stand to-
gether and insist on the rejection of
any reduction that does not include
the entire State. and contends that tho
discrimination which would result
from the adoption of this proposition
would prevent the water points from
developing the density of traffic. which
alone would enable the State TO So
cure the benefit OF their location, and
would thus defeat the aim OF the North
Carolina shippers.
