HAAS ISSUES STATEMENT
ON Centennial FUNDS

The following has been submitted By
e. M Haas, secretary of the Commerce
ial club:
There is very silly rumor in circu
lation concerning the use Of funds
from the Industrial Development com
pany to pay the expenses of the Cen
tennial Exposition. 1t seems absurd
to be required to make statement
about this matter as it is a reflection
on the character of the men who con
stitute the board of directors Of the
club, than whom there are no more
honorable and public spirited in the
city Of Richmond.
will say. that every dollar Of the
money necessary to pay for it's ex.
pense was in hand before the Centen
NAL opened, and was derived as fol
lows:
$1,000 was contributed by Mr.. Henry
B. Marks.
$1,000 by various up town business
firms.
$4,000 was received from the sale OF
booths.
All Expenses Paid.
So far as the expenses of the cele.
bration are concerned every bill could
have been paid whether or not the
exposition continued for single day
The rumor, therefore, that money from
the Industrial Fund has been used for
this purpose is unfounded.
It has also been reported that these
funds were being used for Morton
Park and other purposes, which is
equally absurd.
The Richmond Industrial Develop.
ment company is an incorporated body
and its funds can only be used as set
out in it's articles of association. All
of the money collected is now in the
hands of the treasurer, Mr.. ]. F. Nc
Carthy and not one cent has yet been
spent for any purpose and cannot be
until the board of directors and trus-
tees of the association will make the
appropriation, and we do not believe
that when any contributor realizes that
this money must first be appropriated
by the following body of men will be-
lieve that any Of his money will be
wrongfully spent and for the sake of
those who may not have in mind the
personnel of the the board of direct
ors and trustees, l herewith give their
names again.

RECEIVER is ASKED
=. FOR SMITH ESTATE

Macon, April 17-Charging the tenn
porary administration of the estate OF
the late James M. Smith with malad-
ministration and citing several instan-
ces of this alleged mishandling Of the
estate, Attorneys for the Louisiana
claimants to shart in the estate,
filed bill supplemental to the original
one, which asks that a receiver be
appointed for the estate, in United
States court yesterday during the hear
ing of the case.
The bill was based on testimony Civ
en- by Alexander c. Irwin, ]. O.
Mitchell, Judge David K Meadow and
Nat D. Arnold, temporary administra-
tors, all of whom were closely ques-
toned by attorneys for the plaintiff,
who went into detail on each item of
expenditure of the administrators.
The original bill had alleged that
collision existed between the tempo
rary administrators, appointed by
Judge L. H. Bacon, of the court of
ordinary of Oglethcrpe county, and the
heirs of Zadock Smith, in that the two
parties we're working towards the end
that the latter should receive the en-
tire estate. The bill alleged, in sup
port of this claim, that the temporary
administrators had been active in Sc
curing witnesses for the Zadock Smith
heirs and have even gone so far as to
render financial assistance in paying
the expenses and per diem of these
witnesses.

GEORGIA BULL MOOSE
TO MEET ON MAY 10

Atlanta, April 15.-The state conven-
ton of the progressive party has been
called to meet in Atlanta May 10. This
call was issued at meeting today at
noon by the state progressive COM
mittee, at which meeting every dis
trict in the state was represented.
At this meeting the color line, in he
activities Of the progressive party, was
strictly drawn and explicit instruc-
tons were issued to each county and
district chairman that all but white
registered voters shall be excluded
from the county and district conven-
ton.
1t has not yet been decided whether
or not the progressives will put out
a state ticket, although it is stated that
a state ticket will probably not be put
forward. This question depends, how
ever, it is said, very much on whether
the state democratic executive COM
mittee reads out of the white primary
for the state all who will not vote for
national democratic nominees. 1t was
the unanimous opinion of the commit
tee that the national political views
have nothing whatever to do with
mans ability to vote in white pri'
mary for state officers.

GERMANY BEGINS TO PUT
"BLUE LAWS" INTO FORCE

Berlin, April 14.--What is character
lied as a recrudesGence of the spirit
of the blue laws is observed in some
German cities. In municipalities the
police have been authorized to act as
censors of womens dress and have
been ordered to arrest all women who
are dressed too conspiciously. The
lirst victim of these instructions was a
young woman who was on her way to
meet al. officer. She was taken to a
police station and compelled, accord
ing TO the newspaper reports, to wipe
the powder and rouge from her face
before being permitted to leave the
station.
In Leipzig, prescriptions regarding
boys and girls under IS years OF age
are being enforced. They are forbid
den to enter restaurants and saloons
except when accompanied by adults
and may attend moving picture exhi-
billions only when special programs for
Juveniles are given and they must
keep off the streets after 10 o'clock
at night.

HIGH PRICE STEEL
WORRIES RAILWAYS

New York, April 15.-Wall street has
begun tosrevise it's early estimates oil
the untitled tonnage report published
this week by the United States Steel
corporation. Since the beginning OF
1916 the Steel corporation has been
steadily establishing new high monthly
records in the amount of finished pro-
ducts turned out Despite those stead
lily increasing shipments, however,
this weeks statements of untitled or
ders on hand as of April 1, showed
9,331,00 an increase of 10000 tons
for the month, a gain of l, 531 900 tons
compared with December 81, last, and
an increase of no less than lis per
cent over the figures for April 1, 1916.
This weeks new high record OF I'M
filled orders for the United States
STEELE corporation in the face of actual
deliveries by far the largest in the
whole history of the steel industry,
was first received by Wall street with
much enthusiasm. Towards the close
of the week, however, it developed
that, owing to the high prices being
demanded and received by the steel
manufacturing companies, number
of railroads had cancelled contracts
for new supplies and had issued or
ders to suspend contemplation of i'm
provements. That news was dam
per to Wall streets enthusiasm.

MlLADY's WARDROBE
MUST BE ALL WHITE

Atlanta, Ca, April i5.-Dry good
merchants in Atlanta and throughout
the southern states may soon start a
campaign in the interest of white
wearing apparel. Milady will have to
forego dyed fabrics. The color famine,
according to reports received here, has
reached alarming proportions.
1t now appears that despite the best
efforts of the American dyestuffs IN
dustry, persons generally will have to
get along with less color in wearing
apparel effects, while an additional
deprivation to be encountered prob
ably within a few weeks will be the
circumstance that retail stores will no
longer be in a position to warrant
many fabrics as dyed with lasting col
ers.
In short, as pointed out yesterday
by wholesale and retail dry goods men,
the embargo on German dyestuffs as
result of the European war has at last
reached the point where the ultimate
consumer will be called upon to ex-
ercises patience, and an unusual de-
gree with his tradesmen when it comes
to purchasing all sorts of wearing ap-
parel, house furnishings and all ar
ticles of every day use into which
color enters.
Hats now being shown in Atlanta
for the coming season are rejecting
the color scarcity and are made in
light shades, particularly grays and
natural mixtures of furs requiring no
dyes. Soft hats which can be made
in the lighter and natural ,colorings
will, say Atlanta dealers, supplant
very largely the derby hat, for which
black dyes are necessary.
The ramifications of the dyestuffs
shortage will probably be felt in the
laundries, as Atlanta laundrymen have
received advices and urging them to
exert pressure on customers to make
as wide use as possible of white goods
the next few months.

HIGH PRICE OF PAPER
HEAVY BURDEN ON PRINTERS

Atlanta, Ca, April 11.-How would
you like to pay fifteen cents week
for your newspaper, instead of ten or
twelve cents that you are paying now?
Such thing as distinct possibility
if the price Of paper, metal, ink and
the other commodities the newspa-
pers use continue to advance as they
have in the last few days.
The Atlanta newspapers as we'll as
all other newspapers in Georgia and
over the southern states, will have to
pay from on to three thousand dollars
more for the white paper they use to
print their editions this year than last,
if they are able to get all the paper
they need. Every publication has
been hit by the skyrocket Of prices.
Ink was the latest to feel the stiffen-
ing of prices, while metal, used in the
typesetting machines and for making
cuts has just doubled in the last few
weeks.
So far as can be learned the daily
papers do not contemplate an increase
in subscription rates-yet they may
have to come to it though before the
summer is gone. Georgia weeklies, in
number of instances, have raised
their subscription rate from one dol
lar a year to dollar and a half, but,
take it from a newspaper man, most
of them are worth that anyway.
Several newspaper men from over
the state in their trips to Atlanta, have
discussed the matter of increasing
advertising rates, in frantic effort to
make ends meet and the question in
the fraternity is: Where is it all go
ing to end?

WORLDS LEADING
TOBACCO TOWN
WIN STON-SALEM, N. c., NOW MAN.
UFAcTURES MORE TOBACCO
PRODUCTS THAN ANY OTHER
CTTYsIN THE WORLD.

e. Following are extracts from an adj
dress delivered by Col. A. d Watts,
Collector of Internal Revenue for the
Fifth District of North Carolina, at a
smoker given by the Twin City Club,
Winston Salem, February 4th, 1916:
Some Comparisons.
sWinston-Salem is supplying one
fourth of all the chewing and smoking
tobacco consumed in the United States
besides exporting vast quantities to
foreign lands. This statement is taken
from the report of the Commissioner
of Internal Revenue for the first quar-
ter of the present fiscal year and from
private advices from Washington, as
| to the second quarter, which ended
December 81, last.
"Your city is making one-seventh
of all tobacco products-chewing and
smoking tobacco, cigars, cigarettes
and snuff manufactured in the United
States. Your manufacturers are pay
ing on an average about $4,000. day
revenue taxes to the government and
the amount is increasing from month
to month. When your government
building, much the handsomest in the
state, was completed last July at a
cost of 100000 your newspapers made
the statement that the taxes paid in
your city to Uncle Sam for the first
leight days of it's occupancy would pay
for it. Since SEPTEMBER, it has taken
only fraction over seven average
days collections here to equal it's cost.
So far this week, Mr. Crawford has tax
en- in $206 ,42850 / predict that before
l19l6 shall lave ended your average
weekly payments to the government
on tobacco Will more than pay for this
magnificent Iuilding, leaving the col
lections for the other fifty-one weeks
as clear profit to the government.
Tobacco Shipments.
"Winston-Salem is shipping on an
average each week day to all parts
of this country and to foreign lands
at least $15O,00O of tobacco products
'In conclusion, Winston-Salem man
ufactures more tobacco, all tobacco
products are taken into this statement
than any other city on earth, little OF
big. Industrially, she is easily first
in North Carolina, population cosid
cred, first in America and l believe
in the world; socially, never failing
delight to her friends"

Buy Your Ford Now

Those who have been waiting
for the Ford cars to get cheaper
can now come in and get them
so cheap that they can't afford
to be without them.
r. O. Graves received notice
Tuesday of an $50 cut on the
five passenger car and $500 re
duction on the runabout.
The utility Of this car is so
universally known that their de-
mand has cheapened the price,
because a small margin Of profit
on each car makes a big income
upon the volume Of cars sold.

tlsement.
