YOUNG WOMAN CAUGHT
WHEN CAR OVERTURNS
ON MILL POND BRIDGE

Columbia Record, oath.
Caught underneath an overturned
automobile, FIVE miles from Lex
.ngton on the Augusta road, Miss
Margie Phillips. of Hartwell. Ca, was
yesterday afternoon rescued by her
sister, Miss Grace Phillips, who es-
capped uninjured when the car skid
ded and turned turtle into a mill pond.
The former Miss Phillips was brought
to local hospital, where it was stat
ed last night that she is resting very
we'll, her chief injury being a dislo-
Gated collar bone
teacher at Newberry. With her Sis
Miss Grace Phillips is school
ter she was en- route to her home at
Hartwell when the accident occurred.
The mishap took place shortly after
5 o'clock. It is likely that the two
young women will resume their jour-
ney after two or three days.

up at present over the air scare"
now prevalent here as "a result OF
strange sights" different persons
have reported viewing in the skies
during the past few nights. Last
night there was a small panic among
citizens, some Of whom, preparing to
retire for the night, issued from
their homes clad only in their night
clothes, while others witnessed one
of the strangest sights ever seen in
the skies in the history of Goldsboro,
so it is alleged by old inhabitants
here
About 10 o'clock the heavens in
the northeast appeared suddenly to
become huge ball of fire and people
sitting on their porches at the time
claim they could have easily read
newspaper from the reflection cast
upon the earth, this effect lasting for
about 10 seconds, when as suddenly
as it was seen to appear the appar-
ent ball of fire began to descend to-
ward the earth and just before the
light disappeared there was a loud
sharp report as though there had
been an explosion in the clouds few
miles away and at this juncture the
light disappeared altogether.
Inc explosion referred to was
heard all over the city and many peo-
pie here have formed the opinion thas
aeroplane have been flying over the
city at night, some believing them to
be enemy craft, and that the strange
light seen here last night was re-
suit of searchlights flashed down
upon the city by some one of the
machines. Some people who wit
messed the scene believe that the ap-
pearance of the strange ball of fire
followed by the apparent explosion
was the result of an accident which
must have befallen the machine which
was flashing it's searchlight and that
it landed somewhere near Goldsboro,
either badly damaged or a total
wreck.
Many citizens claim today that re-

nesota tMr Andersonj, whose services
in the preparation OF this bill have
been absolutely invaluable. Cap
plause)
The measure We propose is a war
measure pure and simp,e, and IS
predicated upon the idea of providing
for the national security and defense
by encouraging the production, con-
serving the supply and controlling
the distribution of food products and
fuel, both for the uses of ourselves
and our allies. These are the ends
sought.
In attaining these, Mr.. Chairman,
the bill establishes a governmental
control of necessaries, which shall be
exercised and administrede by the
President through voluntary arrange
ment or agreement and in cooperation
with any agency or person. This is
the most far-reaching and important
provision of the bill, and upon it We
confidently rely for that sane and ade-
uuale control necessary to the stabill-
zation of prices and for the satisfac-
tory and orderly distribution of ne
cessaries. The administrative direct
i've authority is here conferred, with
out which any real solution OF the
problem of food and fuel control is
impossible, and without which control
the same chaos and confusion and
waste and lost motion and manipu-
lation and sky-rocketing prices OF
the past few months will only be ex-
aggerated and increased, both for our
selves and for those for whom we
fight.
The power is conferred upon the
president to require the fullest pub
licity of the methods and practices of
persons engaged in the importation,
expectation, manufacture, storage or
distribution of necessaries as defined
in this bill, by requiring such persons
to hold an unrevoked, unsuspended
license from the President to do bus1-
ness, and such business must be done
under such methods as will provide
for the highest efficiency in manufac-
ture and the most equitable meth
,ods of distribution. The authority is
also conferred upon the President to
fix in lieu of any rate, charge or prac-
tice of any license that is unjust or
unreasonable or discriminatory, and
unfair or wasteful, rate which is
Just, reasonable, non-discriminatory,
and fair OF economical.
Under this power We propose that
those who furnish the machinery
which links up the producer and the
consumer shall stand always during
this war emergency in the full light
of publicity, upon the theory that
darkness is the haven uf the criminal
and light his death, I am happy to
believe that the great Overwhelming
majority of the business men of this
country engaged in distribution of ne
cessaries are not unwilling to allow
the light to be thrown upon their
dealings, because / know that they
are as patriotic as any class Of citi-
zens that we have. More than this,
am confident that the larger per
cent of these men actually desire some
such regulation as here proposed as
a protection to themselves against the
crooks found in every particular line
Of business-that small fraction to be
found in every occupation.

40 AT TEXARkANA QUIT
It is Understood That About 800 Elm
 pIoyes Are Involved in Strike.

Texarkana, Tex, Oct. 17.-About 40 Cotton Belt employees, those engaged in working about the locomotives shops and cars, went out on strike this morning as a protest, according to J. K. Nelson, chairman of the local griev- ance committee, against the acton Of the company in reducing the force of men at work in the Tyler and Pine Bluff shops. It is understood that all along the line, about 5000 men are in yolved in the strike. The unions claim this reduction in the shop forces is violation of the contract entered into this year between the officials of the Cotton Belt and the unions. As re- suit of the strike, the coaling of en- zines on the Cotton Belt is interfered with seriously except at Mount PleaS- ant, Texas, where it is said the coal- ing is done by contract.
 As yet the strike does not affect the carmen's union, which is awaiting fur thcr orders which depend on the re- suit of a conference at Tyler. The Lone Star train and others departed from TexarkaIaa this morning as us ual. The Lone Star was given the usual attention here in the way of re- icing, cleaning of cars and recoaling of the engine.

Kansas City Oct 16.=Cattle own CTS this morning were having difficult fly in identifying their animals from among the great hcId which wa. b. erated when fire, early today, destroy ed more than onc-half of tne Kansas City stockyards, the second largest in the world. By ' o'clock the fire had been controlled, after the fire de- partments of both Kansas City, Kas,, and Kansas City, Mo, had been fight ing it With approximately 100 pieces of fire apparatus and dynamite.
 No estimate of the loss can be made until insurance adj@sters have taken al census of the number O.. cattle burned, since the fire Wal confined to the cattle pens which e5lnpromise the larger part cf tie yafdz.
 The number of oatte II tie pens was 47,ooo, according tg tie receipts of the stockyards up to late last n ght. employees, those engaged in worain3 Of this, number various estimates of the number of animals burned range from 5000 to 15.000 head

 Throughout the morning riilemen and sledge hammer bearers went about the stock yards killing burned annals, under direction of humane so- ciety officers.
 Here and there in the vast burned area the lives of few animals were saved when falling pens and broken off water pipes and allowed nina ture fountain to spray over a limited space.
 Disposal of the carcasses was prov ing a problem early today. It was thought by commission men at the stock yards that local soap and fertil- izer plants would be able to care for most of them.
 Work for Cowboys.
 Cowboys that had accompanied their stock to the yards, together with stock yard employees, were rounding up the Strayed cattle It was said that all these would be sold at auction by the insurance companies, which would settle with the owners as if the cattle had been killed in the fire. This was done, it was. explained, after the fire of three years ago.
