What Will Be Done About 1t?

This is from the New York
World.
That there are only % chill
dren of from 10 to Ia to each
| 1000 throughout TIE entire ex-
tent of the United States who
cannot read and write is an hon
orable record. But it is not
creditable to certains States that
the proportion of illiteracy
among children within their
borders runs 50 high, for instan-
ce, as lis in every 1000 in
Louisiana, SO in every 1000 in
South Carolina and so on gener-
ally throughout the south. !"
There are l0l illiterate children
per 1000 between the ages of 10
and "A, in North Carolina. We
are worse off than South Caro-
lima, the State that Aycock bless
ed because it stood between us
and the bottom.
The Legislature of North Car
DINA is in session. What is it
going to do for the children of
the common school? 1t is fairly
certain to treat the institutions
Of higher learning reasonably
well. Will it do as much for the
children. Greensboro Daily

Trade at Home

A trade at home" movement
was suggested at the last Mon
day night meeting of the Board
Of Trade as worthy of the efforts
Of that organization. We think
a movement Of this kind is badly
needed, The dollar you spend
with your local merchant may
eventually find its way back to
you at any rate it clrculates in
the community and you always
have a chance at it. The dollar
you send to the big mail order
house never comes back under
any circumstances. 1t is simply
50 much of the wealth of the
community taken from the com
munity and placed in the large
cities.
Soitis the duty of every citi-
zen to trade at home. And this
duty Of the citizen entails a duty
on the merchant with whom he
trades. 1t makes it the mer-
chants duty to do all he can to-
ward the building up of the COM
munity, to be progressive, alert,
vigorous. The mer-
chant must do modern business
in the modern way = in that way
he helps himself. He must CO.
operate with the other citizens of
the town in their efforts to build
up the town and make it a better
place to live in. In that way
he helps others and himself.
We hear more of thescitizen's
duty in the premises than we
10 of the merchants but the OBJ
legations in the trade at home
movement rest equally on both
sides.

Curtailing King Cotton

# the southern farmer does
not materially curtail the cotton
crop this season, it is a pretty
safe bet that he never will.
With wheat 81. 50 and cotton nc,
4 stronger object lesson would
be hard to find. We believe the
southern farmer is too intelli-
gent not 10 learn the lesson 50
fortibIy impressed, and if the
acreage usually planted to cotton
is c0rtaiIed fifty percent and
more foodstutIs and cattle raised,
the catastrophe ofIast fall may
turn out to be a blessing in dis
g1lise,

Oracle has outlined to the Legis-
Iature what it must and what it
must not do and puts a time
limit, as it were, of forty days
on its ultimatRm.
/ Following the advice of the
Party Organ (9) the Legislature
has only to bolt through a pri-
mary law, take convict labor
from the railroads for the time
of giving away convict labor is
past take children out of the
cotton mills, take a shot at the
insurance people and quite in
stanterl
Some of the recommendations
are good and some are bad, but
none Of them are of 50 little i'm
portance as to be railroaded
through. We don't believe the
time has yet passed for the grant
ing Of State aid for the purpose
of opening up hitherto undevelop-
ed sections of the State. We
don't believe the time has yet ar
rived for taking all of the chill
dren out of the cotton mills =
certainly this question should
not even be considered until ad-
equate school facilities have been
provided. Out of the spinning
room into the street by act of
Legislature will be the result of
further Child Labor legislation.
One glance at the census figures
will show that the present school
facilities of North Carolina are
hopelessly incapable of accomoda-
ting more children than are at
present enrolled. Something
should be done about this before
any Child Labor legislation is
passed. Adequate school facili-
ties and a compulsory education
al law would solve the chiIh la
Dor problem.
And what about prohibition
legislation? And last but not
least, why is the News ( Obser-
Yer, the self-constituted organ Oh
Democracy in this State, ARD
of a Legislature preponderantly
Democratic? We had rather see
the Legislature in continuous SEES
sion than see the News & Obser-
ver's program crammed through
in thirty day session without
thought or discussion.
