President Gouchenour, of the Bur-
ley Association, is in receipt Of let
ter from Mr.. Ford today, acknowl-
edging receipt of action taken at a
recent meeting, and has agreed to
consider Greeneville when the time
comes for locating his big plant down
this way. The letter also contained
other information that it is thought
best not to give out for publication
Just at this time, but we want to state
to Daily Sun readers that what you
read about the prospects of getting
this big plant located here some
weeks ago, is all true, and the Burnley
Association is in possession of in
formation in this connection which
will bear out all we have said and
even more. We hope to be able to
publish more in this connection at an
early date.

TAKE CARE OF THEM

Our boys are arriving home now
almost on every train from service
overseas. They are naturally anx-
ious to get to their homes in various
actions of the county. AS has been
mentioned in these columns several
times before, these young men have
been charger numerically for trans
portation to their homes in different
sections Of the county by local par
ties operating automobiles. We have
suggested it before, and we desire to
impress upon our citizens again that
there should be some arrangement
made by which these returning sol
der boys could get free transporta-
ton to their homes. 1t would be as
little as we could do to show them
this courtesy. There is not man
il Greeneville that would hesitate to
contribute to fund to pay the ex-
pSHoC ouGH ali
would incur. 1t is, indeed, disgust
ing just now when you look back a
few months and think of the great
demonstrations that were made when
these young men departed, to see so
little interest manifested in them now
that they have been over there-have
faced the hardships of battle--have
gone through the thickest of many
of the severest battles, and many of
them coming back to Us manned and
crippled for life. We repeat, that it
does not speak well for this town.
county and community. See that
these returning boys are shown some
kind Of welcome. See that they get
to their homes without having to pay
two or three times what It is actually
worth. ae ..r .s. ss'

An automobile smash-up took place
near Mosheim Wednesday afternoon
when the car driven by Festes Vann,
Jr., got mixed up with the big Chero-
Cola truck, which also runs out of
this city, supplying the various coun-
try stores in this section. Just how
the accident occurred and who was to
blame cannot be learned. There
were four occupants In the car, but
all escaped uninjured, with the ex-
ception of Mr.. Walter Brown. Mr..
Brown was pretty badly shaken up
and received a severe cut on the fore
head. The car driven by the Vann
boy was also badly damaged, while
the Chero-Cola truck did not appear
to be any worse off from the COLI
sion.
