/
cuss Matter-Committecs Busy.
The Sumter Chamber of Commerce
and Retail Merchants Association are
not sleeping on their jobs when il
comes to working for equitable and
fair freight and express rates for
South Carolina.
AT last nights meeting the question
OF intra-State and Interstate freight
and express rates for and from points
In South Carolina were up for a
lengthy discussion.
IT was unanimously decided that
the committees on freight and ex-
press rates of the Sumter Chamber
or Commerce, with the managing Sec
retary should continue their unabated
cooperation with the other CONNER
cial organizations Of South Carolina
and with the South Carolina Freight
Rate Association to secure for this
State equitable freight and express
rates
Mr.. j. K. Crosswell, chairman Of
the committee on Freight Rates, and
Mr. Abe Ryttenberg. chairman OF the
Wholesale Committee Interests Of the
Chamber. with Managing Secretary E..
L. Reardon were appointed a commit
tee TO represent these two CONNER
clal organizations at the hearing on
Interstate and Intra-State express
rates before the South Carolina Rail
way Commission, April Sth, at 10
o'clock a. m, at Columbia
This meeting will have a very i'm
pcrtant bearing on the future busi-
ness interests Of South Carolina. The
railway commissioners have invited
every business organization to send
representatives to this meeting as rep
resentatives OF the express companies
will be there to present their side Of
the questions.
Recent changes In rates, and re-
rating of commercial commodities
by the Interstate Railroad Commits
sion have caused considerable kicks
from receivers and shippers.
1t behooves every Chamber Of
Commerce. board Of trade, and busi-
ness mems league. and city or town
councils where there are no com
mcrcial bodies to send represe entati2es
to Columbia on April sth. There is
an organized and systematic fight &C.
inS on against the unequitable
freight and express rates to and from
South Carolina points.

TOBACCO is SHORT.
Half of Plants Have Suffered From
Cold Weather.

Florence. April 1.-RepOrts Of the
damage to tobacco plant beds by the
recent freeze are very discOuraging.
There is every indication of a short
age In tobacco for setting out. 1t is
estimated that about half of the
plants have been killed in the beds
and many farmers have planted new
beds. The hope was for a largely in
tion this year, but it will certainly
be very much curtailed, and may not
be so great as last year.
