unless specific demands were granted
by November l.
The action ofthe executive council
of the American Federation of Labor,
upholding the strike, pledging sup
port to the strikers and denouncing
the governments injunction suit, was
variously interpreted. While officers
of the federation refused to add one
word by way of explanation or inter-
pref its meaning in view of the feel
ing in some quarters that it was de-
signed to back up the strikers, it was
attacked on the floor of the Senate
and emphazized there thatunder the
food control law injunctions could be
legally issued against strikers inter-
rupting the nations food or fuel.
Only few reports came in from
the coal fields and these showed the
situation generally unchanged, with
miners waiting to see what orders
they would get from Indianapolis
Government plans went forward as
heretofore, with the fuel administra-
ton and the railroad administration
working hand in hand to move coal
and distribute it where most needed.
Reports that blizzard was sweep
ing out of the northwest was a dis
ouieting bit ofnews received during
the day, officials realizing that a
week of cold weather would cut deep
w into reserve coal stocks and make
conditions critical unless the men re-
turn Immediately to work.

SUGAR PRICES TURNED LOOSE
Government Will Not Attempt to
Keep Prices at Level

New York, Nov. 12.-Importation
of foreign sugars will be allowed and
no prosecutions for profteering in
them will be undertaken under the Lev
er act except for unreasonable mar
gins of profit" the sugar equaliza-
tion board was informed today in a
telegram received from Howard Figg,
Assistant Attorney General at Wash
ington.
The telegram was in response to a
request for ruling made by the
board, which set forth that it was
receiving numerous applications for
the importation of white sugars from
countries like Brazil, the lowest price
of which is fourteen and fifteen cents
pound, duty paid. The maximum
price that American refners are al
lowed to charge for sugar purchased
from the board is nine cents pound.
Imported sugar, the board explain
ed, is readily salable to manufactur-
ers in order to keep their plants go
ing and to protect their invested
capital. Il is not so much a matter
of price it was said, as the disband-
ing of their working forces, which
would necessitate their closing their
plants.
Are the sellers who agree to con-
fine themselves to fair or reasonable
profit, or the buyer who urgently
needs sugar." the board asked, "violat-
ing the provision of the Lever act in re
spect to profteering? It seems to us
that the urgency Of the sugar here
transcends the necessity of keeping
price at level at which the foreign
sellers will refuse to ship their su-
gars to the United States.
The board informed the Attorney
Generals office that it was exerting
it's efforts to attract sugars here from
outside sources, but did not desire to
be party to circumvent any instruc-
tions which may have been given to
United States attorneys to prevent
profteering.
Mr.. Figg's reply said:
"The urgency of sugar here tran
scends the necessity of keeping the
price at a level below what the for
eign sellers will expect. Believe I'M
portation of foreign sugars should be
allowed. Will not only consider un-
reasonable margins of profit viola
ton of the Lever act on the resale OF
these sugars in the United States

HOLDS GRACE.
NOMINATION VOID
SUPREME COURT RULES EXECU'
TIVE COMMITTEES NOT IN
ACCORDANCE WITH LAW

Columbia, Nov. 1.-THE determi-
nation of the Supreme Court of the
state of South Carolina in the Char
lesion election case is that the de-
clared nomination of John P. Grace
was illegal, null and void.
The court holds that the action of
the executive committee in referring
the challenged votes to subcommit-
tee was an error of law which was
prejudical to the rights of the petit
toner.
1t holds that the executive commit
tee erred in refusing to consider the
alleged mutilated ballots. The deci-
sion reads:
From what has been said it is
clear thatwe cannot determine from
the records before US which of the
candidates for. mayor received ma
iority of the votes that were and
ought to have been counted. We can
not, therefore, sustain the contention
of the petitioner that the court will
consider the votes and declare the
election. Under the statutes and rules
the managers were not authorized to
declare the result; that was for the
executive committee, and it has not
done according to law.
at follows that all we can do is to
hold that the result of the election
has not been legally ascertained and
declared, and that the actions of the
executive committee in attempting
to do so were affected by errors OF
law, prejudicial to the petitioner
Hyde, land must be set aside, and it is
so adjudged."

cered by the leading colored citizens

Tuesday was educational day and
the. program consisted of school

and number of appropriate floats
were interesting features.
The livestock and poultry exhibit
are very creditable. There are a
number offine hogs on exhibit. The
agricultural school and fancy work
displays in the administration build
ing are very good.
Yesterday was agricultural or
farmers day and today is designated

day.
The fair is provided with the usual
carnival features and they all seem,
to be doing a good business.
Horse racing has been one of the
main features of the daily program.

SOUTH CAROLINA CROP REPORT
Cotton 60 Per Cent of Normal Other
Products Lower Than Last Year

Saluda, November 10.-The con-
dition of cotton in South Carolina on
October 25, according to report of
bureau of crop estimates issued
throug its South Carolina Field Agent
B. B. Hare, was 80 per cent of nor
NAL as compared with 81 per cent on
September 25th. The October condi-
ton report has been interpreted in
terms of bales. However, the report
of field agent, B. B. Hare, of Septem-
Der 25,. indicated total production
in the State of 1,127,0O0 bales, the
final outturn, as he stated at the
time, would be greater or less accord
ing to whether weather conditions
thereafter should be better or worse
than average conditions.
The average yield of corn in the
State is reported at 16 bushels per
acre, as compared with II bushels
last year and the ten-year average OF
ia bushels. The yield of Irish pota-
toes is placed at s5 bushels per acre,
as against 100 bushels last year, the
ten-year average being 81 bushels
The average yield of sweet potatoes
is 80 bushels, or 8 bushels less than
the ten-year average. The yield OF
tobacco Is 600 pounds per arce as
compared with 696 pounds in 1918.
The quality is rs per cent of normal
or S per cent below that of last year.
The estimated yield of peanuts IS 43
bushels, as against an elght-year
average of As bushels per acre.
Total production of various crops
for the entire United States is shown

ed in the conference Friday from the
State of Washington, to Maryland.
The miners who will attend the meet
ing will include the international Of
fcers, district presidents or whomever
the districts choose to send, members
of the executive board and of the
scale committee, practically the same
makeup as the general committees,
which has been meeting here.
Although the strike has been called
off court action in the strike case has
not been completed by any means
The miners attorneys are preparing
their writ of error with a view to ap-
pealing the case to the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals and expect
to file their petition for this step
within the next two or three days.
The attorneys stated that they ex-
pected to carry the case to the high
est tribunal of the country if the gov
ernment is upheld in all lower courts
in it's contention.
From the standpoint of the govern
ment the miners themselves are not

absolved from further obedience to
the courts injunction through with
drawal of the strike order and unless
the case is dismissed, injunction writs
served on more than sixty Of the
United Mine Workers officials are
returnable before December 2.
Thirty-one officials of the organi-
zatlon were served with copies of the
temporary restraining order issued
October 81, returnable November 20.
About thirty-fve others were served
during a session of the conference
with copies of the temporary re-
straining order issued last Saturday.
There was much speculation as to
how the notice of withdrawal of the
strike would be received by the min
ers in the fields. In some quarters it
was believed that the men would re-
turn almost as a whole on orders
from their union heads. However,
there was indications that. in some
districts feeling against obeying
the order to resume work existed.
Delegates to the conference who were
questioned on this subject would make
no predictions.
Patriotic devotion to the govern
ment and American ideals and insti-
tutions caused the United Mine Work
ers of America to comply with the
order of the United States court to
withdraw the strike order, according
| to a statement made by Ellis Earles,
editor of the United Mine Workers
Journal.

ROUND UP MANY
PEACE DISTURBERS
HOUSE COMMITTEE PROPOSES
FURTHER DRASTIC MEAS
URES AGAINST ALIENS

Inaugurating a general warfare or
radical aliens advocating forcible
overthrow of the government, agents
of the Department of Justice, assist
ed by the immigration bureau, round
ed up nearly 500 men and women in
raids last Friday and Saturday and
in more than a score of cities, includ-
ing the national capitol itself.
More than 200 of those arrested
will be held for deportation and it
was announced at the Department of
Justice that it was the intention to
request the Department of Labor to
deport all aliens found to be engaged
in radical activities.
Primarily the raids, which occurred
in practically every industrial center
in the east and middle west, were
aimed at the Union of Russian Work
ers, an organization which Attorney
General Palmer disclosed was formed
in New York twelve years ago by
group of men at the head of which
was William Szatow, now chief of
the Bolsheviki police at Petrograd.
In their raids in Newark, and Tren-
ton, N. j., the federal agents seized
materials for making bombs and a
complete counterfeiting outfit to-
gether with considerable counterfeit
money. In practically every raid the
officers found great quantities of rad
ical literature.
The Union of Russian Workers
first came into public notice during
the Senate investigation of the steel
strike, Jacob Margolis, counsel for
the strike committee, testifying that
he sought the aid of the Russians in
the strike.
Attorney General Palmer described
the Russian union as "even more
radical that the Bolsheviki" and de-
clared it's purpose was to amalaga-
mate all of the Russian groups in the
United States into one organization.
Mass action including armed action
in time of "great national strife" is
the principle of the union, he said.
While discussing the activities OF
the union at length from its first con-
vention at Detroit in 1914, at which
members from Canada were present,
down to the present time, Depart
ment of Justice officials would not
20 into details of the raid. They re-
fused to answer any question as to-
that in Washington further than to
admit that nine men had been arrest
ed and that of the five released upon
proving their American citizenship,
one would be rearrested.
The men arrested were held by
federal agents and were subjected to
lengthy cross examination. 1t was
understood that those held would be
sent to Ellis Island, n Y, where de-
portation proceedings for all those
arrested will be conducted.
With the announcement of the ma
tionwide raids, Chairman Johnson, OF
the House immigration committee
said his committee would begin an
investigation during the next few
weeks of the alleged delays in the de-
portation of aliens now in custody.
The committee also will seek to de-
termine whether any additional leg
islation to deal with radical aliens is
necessary.
