CAMPAIGNON
TO MAKE CITY
LEADINGMART
Of INDUSTRY

A campaign to make Washington
a manufacturing city as well as the
most beautiful in the United States
was today launched by the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Associa-
ton when a committee of six was
appointed by President Joseph A.
Berberich to promote present indus
tries and bring others to the city.
President Berberich has resigned
from all other activities with local
trade bodies and will devote his en-
tire time to the work he has started.
Owners of present manufacturing
interests in the District of Columbia
are asked to furnish information re-
garding their locations, size Of
plants, products, markets, sources
of raw materials, exports and i'm
ports, labor supply and availability,
amount of business, and all other
facts that will aid the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association in
advising prospective industries of
the advantage of Washington as a
location.
To Catalogue Sites.
Factory sites are also to be cata-
logued Owners of vacant land are
requested to list it with the associa-
tion, with statements of what they
will do to induce new enterprises to
come to Washington.

manufacturing city without disturb

may stimulate the movement for con-
solidating rural schools, and for the
adoption of deliberate policy on the
part of State government for the
maintenance of rural life. Country
children should be as well instructed
as those of the larger towns and cit
les. One of the results of the short
age of teachers, furthermore, may
be the revival of conscious and de-
liberate educational effort in the
home. Where the school teachers are
young girls without professional
training, who engage in the work as
Z temporary make shift. it is not
wise to rely 100 entirely UPON schools

Poorly Paid Teachers

The teachers are probably the most
poorly paid this season Of any class
of American workers. Thousands OF
able young instructors and profes-
sors have abandoned the schools and
colleges, and gone into business pur-
suits; and many women teachers
have found other occupations. Col
leges have been making the most
strenuous efforts to find menas with
which to increase the, salaries OF
their corps of instructors. Harvard
University, for example, has organ
lied campaign for an Immediate
sum of $15,O00,00O al fresh endow-
ment, the income of which is to be
applied chiefly to an increase IN the
pay of teachers.
Temporarily the shortage of bet
ter teachers for public schools will
be to the advantage Of the unframed
and immature, especially in small
towns and country districts. The
larger school systems will, even more
than heretofore, offer inducements to
the good teachers from the country.
At least, school-keeping will be shak-
en- out of some old ruts. 1t is to be
hoped that the resulting situation

Cotton Varities For Weevil Conditions

Clemson College, Oct. 28.-To help
lessen the damage from the boil wee
vii, now advancing so rapidly in
South Carolina, the Extension Ser
vice of Clemson College has tested
during the last three years about
twenty of the best varieties of cot
ton with reference to early fruiting
and early maturing. The experiments
were conducted in Edgefeld, Aiken,
BarnweN, Hampton, Beaufort, and
Charleston counties to determine the
varieties best suited to beat the boil
weevil
From the results so far obtained
and from observation as to fruiting
and growth, says E. E. Hall, expert
in cotton breeding, the Short staple
varieties to be recommended for
South Carolina conditions are Cleve-
land, Cook, Dixie, and Triumph.
On land free from wilt Cleveland
Big Boil has given the best average
results, and this is considered one OF
the best varieties for South Carolina,
if land is entirely free of wilt.
Cook ranks among the highest
Welding varieties in the State, but is
not as generally grown, because an
thracnose or boil rot is worse in this
variety than in any other.
Dixie Triumph is the earliest and
highest yielding wilt-resistant varie-
ty tested, and can be recommended
for wilt-infested land. Dixie has also
made good yields on wilt-infested
land, but it is not as early as Dixie
Triumph.
Among long staple varieties Web
Der 40 and Webber 81 are the earl
lest tested. Webber 40 fruits and ma
lures a little earlier than Weber 81.
Both are we'll adapted to the state
where wilt does not occur. as they
fruit practically as early as the short
staples and frequently yield as much
seed cotton per acre.
Seed of any Of the above varieties
can be obtained from breeders in the
state who, for several years, have

sStrikes" Among Public Employees

There ought to be kept clearly in
mind the various points if distinction
between public employees and work
ers in private industries carried on
for profit. In ordinary industry the
law of supply and demand is always
in operation. Unions are formed
among the workers, and agreements
are entered into from time to time
with employers in order that this So
called law of supply and demand may
not work too harshly and unequally;
but the principles of competition are
not thus set aside. They are merely
regulated in their working by such
devices as collective bargaining, pc
riodic agreements and arbitration. In
public employment the conditions
hitherto have been quite different,
and it is essential that the distinc-
tions be kept clear for the future.
The public schools of city or a
State ought not to be subject to a
strike of teachers for higher pay.
The health of a communities re-
CARDS infectious diseases, for exam
ple--ought not to be endangered in by
a Strike of sanitary inspectors, health
board employees, ambulance-drivers
and hospital workers in general. The
public duty of vigilance on the part
of firemen, to whom has been en-
trusted the protection of life and
property, cannot be set aside in fav-
or of the private duty of firemen to
provide for their families. The pro-
lection of a great community againss
crime and disorder is sacred truet
imposed upon police departments that
have been trained and developed
through several generations.
A policemen in a large community
is certainly the most indispensable of
all public servants. When the young
candidate passes the examinations
and secures appointment to the po-
lice force, he renounces the p,int Of
view of the worker in private indus
try, and accepts the wholly 'iiffc,ent
status of a permanent public Official
Who represents governmental author
ity. Elective officers like governors
and mayors come and go; but police
men and firemen and the bFs"r class
of persons engaged in teaching, in
sanitary work and in certain other
forms of public service, are carefully
protected against arbitrary disn,is-
sal and are trained to recognize the
responsible nature of thei: callings.
They may indeed resign as individ-
uals from time 10 time; but their
moral obligation no; to endanger the

Thus ran the excited indictment
Of Zach Aloud, Syrian, farmer Of
about two miles east of this city,
as he preferred charges of assault
and battery against Harry Ander-
son, his hired hand, before Justice
of the Peace James r. Spence last
evening.
Look what he done-no teeth

battered face and bleeding tooth

beauty. The compliments face
was a dark-hued, purple mass. One
eye was completely closed and
three or four front teeth were miss
ing. His alleged assailant, An
derson, displayed only few
scratches.
According to the account OF the
fight secured from the principals
and witnesses, Anderson, who had
been in the employ Of Aloud for
some time, was engaged in building
a door to a corn crib. The work
was not to Aboud's taste, however,
and the two exchanged words. The
argument waxed warm and it was

saulted him. Il thought I had suf-

asked why he beat up the Syrian.
Anderson was placed under 800
bond and upon inability to furnish

Ger county Jail for the night. Aloud
sought a doctor for medical atten-

promised to appear against Ander-
son this morning at 10 o'clock.

A big picnic, open to the public,

who is in this city for a few days
formulating plans and guperyis-
ing arrangements.
Officers OF the national union OF
farmers met at the Mercer county
bank, discussing ways and means
for boosting the association. Those
to assemble were Dan Twelfthtree,
president; Charles A. Anderson,
vice president; Ward L Candor.
secretary and treasurer.
In speaking Of he success and
growth of tho American Society OF
Equity Mr.. Fuller stated that In
this vicinity there are 20 local
unions. Our main purpose is to
protect the farmers interests. Our
goal is organization. Only through
this means can the farmer elm
mate the bloodsucking middieman.
In the central states our society
has saved farmers many thou
sands OF dollars. A conservative
estimate would place this figure
at $4,000 in Mercer county alone,
FOR example. Only a few
weeks ago we shipped into AledO a
carload Of fiour. We sold that to-
the farmers from the car at q saw
