WILSON C0NFERS
WITH UNDERWOOD
Legislative Situation and Ad-
journment of Congress Con-
sidered at White House.

President Wilson and Representative
Underwood, leader of the House, were In
conference half an hour today in refer
ence to the legislative situation and the
desire of the administration for an early
adjournment of Congress
Mr.. Underwood did not care to discuss
the results. if any, of the conference. but
he stated that the mater of adjournment
would be carefully considered just as
soon as the appropriation bills are gotten
out of the way. Mr.. Underwood feared
that some of the appropriation bills
would not become law by July l and that
all of them would not be disposed of
inside of three weeks. When these bills
are out of the way the question of ad-
journment could then be settled much
easier than at present.
Mr. Underwood believed that the Dis
trict of Columbia appropriation bill would
be agreed to before July ], and he does
not include that as one of the bills that
will fail of passage by the beginning of
the new fiscal wear

Will Raise No Objection,

While no further word could be obtained
from Mr. Underwood as to his position
that it will be better to defer the trust
bills to another session Of Congress than
to permit these bills to keep Congress in
session several months longer. it was the
understanding today that Mr.. Underwood
has in no way changed his opinion, but he
is to make no objection to the passage OF
the trust bills II at the end of the next
few weeks il looks as IL the Senate will
act promptly and dispose of trust legisla-
ton. thereby permitting an adjournment
by the end of July or early August
The President. it is said. is optimistic
about the Senate being prepared to dis
pose of trust legislation without serious
delay and the consequent adjournment of
Congress in the next six weeks.
Business Conditions Considered.
Business conditions and their effect on
the administration trust legislation pro-
net meeting.
Secretary Redfield Of the Department
of Commerce told the President reports
received from many sources indicated
that business was unusually good for
this time of year and that prospects
were that it would grow better
The President was much ENCOURAGED
by the reports and it was said his de-
termination to push the trust bills had
been strengthened.
President Wilson has accepted an invi-
tation to speak at an Independence day
celebration at Philadelphia July L. He
may return TO Washington by way OF
the Virginia capes on the Mayflower.

A WORD TO CRITICS

We have a word to say to the
fellow who is always ready to criti-
cize his home newspaper. We
grew up in printshop, so to speak,
and have learned few things-not
nearly everything of course-about
running a country newspaper. We
put this down among our observa-
lions: That the average critic of a
good country newspaper is in nine
cases out of ten a rank failure and
cannot even run his own business
with any degree of success. The
world is full of fellows who always
are anxious to tell the owner of
newspaper how it should be run, but
when it comes down to brass tacks
and they are asked to make good at
even most simple tasks they fade
away like slice of bacon before a
hungry man. Still, they have the
fun of kicking and that, is a whole
lot: Experience has taught The
Review that when a fellow stops his
paper Generally leaving a small
balance unpaid) he does so because
the editor has had the courage to
tell the truth about something that
makes the conscience of the critic
uneasy.

It's the Same Old Story.

The Corporation Commission has
allowed the Southern Bell Telephone
Co. to increase its rates in the little
town of Graham, the new rates be-
ing, for business phones 81 per
month, residence phones $3.50. Just
think of it, four dollars a month for
business and two dollars and a half
for residence phones in a village.
At this same rate High Point, if the
Bell Company was it, here, would
charge an exhorbitant rate. The indie
pendent company here with the fin
est service in the south and with 80
times the connections or phones is
only charging for business phones
81 and residence phones ST so,
while the Bell rates with one-thir-
tieth the phones in High Point that
the North State Telephone Co. has,
is charging or is supposed to get
much more for their limited service,
according to the law which equal
ICES, r is supp osed to equalize, tele-
phone rates of the ei ,antic monopo-
lies in towns of the same proportion
OF population and phones.
Its the same old story of how
sad is it all when it's too late" to
remedy the evil, but why prolone

want justice they get it; when
tney want to get something at any,

In Regard to the Mayor.

Mayor Tate says that he will posi-
lively not be a candidate for re-
election in May and therefore some
one else must shoulder the response.
bility after that time.
1t is easy for one to say that there
are number of people we'll quail
fed for the position; talks cheap,
but seriously, who are they? The
man that succeeds the present in
cumbent and looks after High Points
best interests and keeps her on the
progressive march as she deserves
will have his hands full and over
flowing. Doubtless his best thought
and resources will be taxed to the
limit to make things come out right
He will likely spend many restless
nights and many waking hours plan
ming and doing for Miss High Point,
provided he measures up to his call
ing, and if he does not the popular
young Miss will lose her standing in
business society, so to speak. He
will then realize it is a MANS job
and will want to sympathize with
his predecessors and tell the people
at large how much cooperation is
desired and how little 'cussing and
discussing" is needed.
At this stage of the game seek
ing the Office for the honor" is all
out of the question as it will take
work, work and more work, backed
up by brains and character, and it
is therefore not job for 22-calibres
or the gimlet variety.
While Mayor Tate has made mis-
takes (who has not) and while the
editor has not always agreed with
him, still it would be a mean man
void of honor whoever he be who
would feign deny that Mr.. Tate has
not performed much real, good SER
vice to the city of which he is just
ly proud and that he has given
more of his time and attentioe to
the city's affairs for very little COM
pensation than any of his prede-
cessors, because High Point demand
ed it. 1t matters not how the Bit
terest politician (for any man who
DOES THINGS is censured by some)
may condemn or falsify, we believe
deep down in their hearts Gf they
haven't passed the receptive period)
they acknowledge within themselves
(ifnot publicity that the Mayor HAS
done pretty well and perhaps better
than they could have done.
Speaking in general the editor
has always believed in saying things
deserved, to friend or foe. while liv-
ing and we are glad to speak our sen
timents in these directions whether
public sentiment is universal, divid-
ed or what not. Right is right at
all times, the tongue often ulters
many things not deserved, far more
than those. things deserved. Life is
too short for strife and turmoil when
God has given US this beautiful city
to use for The best of all mankind
and for his glory. Let's be MEN, not

II was recently announced that ex'

covered at Udi, southern Nigera, west
Africa. The test carried out by the
government and the analyses at the
Imperial institute in London are said
to have given results equal to two
thirds Of the best Welsh coal. 1t is
added thai a survey for railroad to
connect this coal field with the river
port of Onitsha is being carried out.
The Importance of this line, as AFFORD
ing cheap fuel for the two Nigerias,
would be very great, while 1t would
make for the development of the
trade of this rich district and the set

that those at Okpanam vary from tif,
