Schools to Be Embodied

session or Lne legislature n1easures M Al
be introduced to strengthen the teach
ing of English in the parochial as we'll

Eastern division of the bureau of for
eign and domestic commerce.
Cotton goods. cotton seed products
naval stores and lumber were cited
by Mr.. Eldrige as some of the prin
cipal exports. Europe, he said
would have to depend on the South
for lumber to rebuild its cities, and
all the world would buy the other
products. The exporting ships can.
not stay in Southern trade unless
they return laden, he said, and
among remedies for this he suggest
ed that Southern business men pre-
pare to import copra from the Phil,
ippines and the East Indies and thus
Southern mills could crush oil the
year round Manila jute could also
be imported for making bags for cot
tonseed meal and fertilizer. Prepa
rations must be made in the South fol
factories to handle the raw jute i'm
ports, he pointed out.

on by various speakers and the aid
