true, and her faith so great that VIC

AUTOMOIIVE
. DEALERS WILL ORGANIZE
STATE BODY

Especial to The Dispatch-News.)
Columbia. Sept. 23.-The Automo-
tive trade generally is greatly interest
cd in the decision reached by the
Columbia Automobile Dealers Associa-
ton, at a recent meeting, whereby 1t
is proposed to<~ rganize South Carolina
INDEPENDENTLY. and to have the State
Association affiliate with the National
Association. The Charlotte Automo-
tive Trades Association sponsored the
movement for a bi-state organization,
and while the South Carolina distri-
butors and dealers look upon the
Charlotte movement as an excellent
one, they feel that the interests Of
the Automotive trade in South Caro-
lima can best be served by separate
South Carolina Association which will
gladly cooperate with the North Caro-
lima Association in all matters Of mu-
tual interest but will be free and in
dependent to act separately when oc-
casion requires.
The Columbia Automobile Dealers
association, which is the oldest deal
erS Association in the State. is very
much gratified by the steps taken by
the Charlotte Association and in TAX
ing the initiative looking towards the
organization of South Carolina deal
ers, does not in any way tend to dis
credit the Charlotte association, but
feels that the volume Of business en-
braced in this trade, running as it does
into millions of dollars and including
not only passenger cars and trucks but
also tractors, farm lighting equipment
and accessories of every kind, together
with electrical appa paratus,~sand all
affiliated lines should be represented
by its own organization with head
quarters at Columbia and it proposes
"a hold a preliminary meeting in Col
umbia during Fair week, to which all
South Carolina dealers in these lines
are invited and urged to be present.
Further announcements will be made
later.
Expressions Of approval and interest
in this movement have already been
rece:ved from dealers all over the
State, including the Greenvillc Auto
motive Dealers Association. which
had originally intended to affiliate
with the Organization proposed to D.,
formed at Charlotte.

PENSIONERS MUST
REENROLL OR LOSE
T.IfE, Is SHORT-MUST COME IN
PERSON AND HAVE TWO WIT
NESSES-NEW LAW.

Confederate veterans and widows
of Confederate soldiers and sailors
who have heretofore received pensions
from the State government are re-
uuired by the act passed at the last
session of the general assembly to be
reenrolled. 1t will be necessary for
all former pensioners to make new ap-
plications, the county pension board
has set aside October 18th and 23 as
the two last dates on which these ap-
plications may be filed with Judge
Drafts. clerk of the board. Two days
in September were also devoted to this
purpose, the 18th and 25th, but so
far very few of the old pensioners
have taken the trouble to qualify.
Unless new applications are filed and
approved these former pensioners
will not participate in the distribution
next year. It is important, therefore,
that they comply at once with the
requirements.
The applications which were filed
in the spring we're for those who had
not previously received a pension, the
legislature making provision for all
who had seen service or their widows
regardless Of property holdings. The
applications which are to be made now
have no reference to those who were
placed on the roll early in the year,
but to those WHO have formerly been
drawing a pension.
1t will be necessary for applicants
to come in person and have two wit
nesses to prove service in the Conted-
crate army or navy.
