VICIOUS RUMORS.

German agents and sympathizers
in this country have started many
vicious rumors designed in one way
or another to foment sentiment
against the Washington govern
nent. The reports are fatty brand
ed as soon as they come to the at
tention of the authorities. One of
the latest is that the government
will confiscate all bank deposits and
this has brought from Secretary Nc
Adoo the following statement:
among the many absurd and vi
cious rumors put into circulation
these days, probably through pro-
German influences is one that the
United States proposes to confiscate
money on deposit in banks. The alb
surdity of the statement is obvious
on it's face. These rumors are
wholly without foundation and prob
ably circulated for an evil purpose.
The government has no power to
confscate the money of depositors
in banks"
Another rumor came out of Wes-
tern North Carolina the other day to
the effect that the German prisoners
at Hot Springs were to be armed in
order to be in position to meet at
tacks against the camp. or course
the department of labor at Wash
ington promptly denied that any
such absurd action was in contem-
plation, one official declaring that
the report is so ridiculous that it
hardly needs to be denied"
But the German propagandists are
busy and new and equally foolish
stories will gain currency from time
to time.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
Serious Times Ahead.

To the Editor Of The News:
There are many negro readers Of
your journal-the leaders of the
race in South Carolina. refer to
the preachers and teachers; then
there are many white readers OF
your journal who would gladly give
information and instruction to the
negro people. AS see it there are
some serious problems ahead for the
next IL months. First, the food
problem. The chances that the
prices of food will go upward in
stead of downward. Then there is
the labor problem. We can't pro-
duce food without labor. Every
thing possible should be done to
get our people to SOW wheat and
other grain, not only the people who
live in the country but those who
live in the cities should get an acre
or two of ground and SOW wheat.
rye, oats and plant everything in the
line of vegetables that will grow
from January to January. 1 never
tell people to do what 1 am not do
ing myself; somewhere" in South
Carolina l planted wheat last week
The labor problem will continue to
be serious unless the negro and the
white people can get together. Even
in the cities can't get wood to burn
because there is no one to cut it;
there is plenty Of wood but the cut
ters and haulers are few. Our peo-
pie who farmed have plenty Of
money" and are not dependent on
wood for cash, at least for the pres
ent. 1 found in the last ten days
people crying for wood from Con-
way to Rock Hill; the next cry will
be for meat. White and negroes
must get together, cooperate and
solve these serious problems; for
what hurts one race hurts the other
and that which helps one race helps
the other. am not writing this ar
ticle for prominence nor to appear
as leader. but / am in earnest.

NO CHANGE JUST NOW.
Charlotte Observer.)

Taking its cue from The Green's
boro News, The Union Republican,
published at Winston-Salem. sug-
ges,s a clean sweep in the Presi-
dents Cabinet. France has chang
ed it's governing body to meet the
Why not President Wilson recon
struct his Cabinet? We should say
for the very good reason that no re-
construction is needed-except in
the mind of the Republicans. No
Democratic Cabinet could be ex-
pected to please them and sugges-
tions for change are at all times in
order. That President Wilson finds
no necessity for Cabinet changes Is
because he has about as good Cab
met as could be selected from Amer
lean talent. Affairs in the United
States government are quite differ
ent from affairs in administration
circles in both France and England
and because changes are found nee
essary there is no reason why this
country should follow suit. The re-
cord being made by the navy is the
stumbling block the cabinet-change
advocates cannot get around. Sec
retary Daniels has the distinction of
having conquered over a greater de-
gree OF vicious and widespread pre-
judice than any other member of an
American Cabinet. The Republi.
cans who would bring about a
change in the Presidents family will
have some voting to do-more than
they have been able to do in recent
