Cotton Should Bring
5OICents---Welborn

ATLANTA, Jan. 30-Just back from
Jacksonville, where he went to con-
fer with officials of the Jacksonville
branch of the federal reserve bank,
M. B, Wellborn, chairman of the board
OF directors of the bank, made it cleat
today that the federal reserve bank
is continuing to extend the usual re-
discount accommodations to farmers
on paper secured by cotton warehouse
receipts.
According to the law of supply and
demand" said Mr.. Wellborn, cotton
ought to bring better price than it
is bringing now. With four short
crops in succession, and with the Eu-
ropean countries destitute of clothing,
my judgment is that cotton ought to
be worth at least so cents a pound"

I'LL NEVER DO IT
AGAIN. y. {. HODGES
EmplOye of Forsyth Chair Company
Tells Why He VIII Never Again BE
without DrecO-Interestng Story.

J. E. Hodges, who resides at 1f9
Center street, WinstOn-Salem, is per-
haps one of the most popular en-
ployees of the Forsyth Chair COMPANY
He is a member of the Junior Order
and number of other fraternal and
social organizations.
Recently Mr.. Hodges was troubled
with a severe form of kidney trouble
combined with Indigestion, loss of
sleep and rheumatism, pains in the
back and limbs. A friend told him
about the wonderful new herbal medi-
cine called Dreco which is now being
introduced in this section and prevail
ed upon him to give it a trial. This is
what he says after only one bottle of
Dreco. Ilts II
my pans and stomach trouble are
all gone. So is the kidney disorder. I
made mistake in not getting another
bottle as soon as the first gave out
but I'll never do that again, for
Dreco put new life into me, all right!
I want all my friends to try it,
No two cases of stomach trouble
kidney disorder or similar ills seem
to be exactly alike. Some will re-
quire more Dreco than others before
the sufferer can say 81 am cured at
last!" It is, therefore, we'll always
to keep a good supply Of this medi-
sine on hand at all times, If only as
a matter of precaution.
Dreco is sold and recommended In
Arncricus by Americas Drug Co.

ITALIANS RAISE
U.S.FLAC AGAIN
And APOLOGIZE

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-Rear Ad-
miral Niblack, commanding American
naval forces in the Adriatic, has in
formed the navy department that the
action of the Italian authorities in
hauling down the American flag on
the steamer Dinara was due to a mis-
un ierstanding, and that the Italian
commander had apologized and or
dered the flag restored.
The incident occurred at the Port
of Jelsa on Jan 16. Admiral Niblack's
despatch said;
The Italian government has been
authorized by the Adriatic naval COM
mittee to requisition all Hun
garian merchant vessels to be control
led by the Allied maritime council
The refusal of some of the crew on
particular ships to go to sea under
the Italian flag is attributed to i'll
feeling toward the Italian people.
1.-THE Italian authorities had not
been advised as to the decision of the
naval committee in connection with
the Dinara. The United States and
Allied flags were hauled down by the
Italian senior officer and the Italian
colors hoisted, the ship not being seiz-
ed After the matter was referred to
the Italian senoir officer he stated
that the act was done through igno-
rance and after expressing regret, the
United States and Allied flags were
again hoisted."

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-The post
office department has sent out cir
cular letter to more than $4,000 bust
ness men, firms, boards of trade and
chambers of commerce throughout the

constructive criticisms which may

letter land make it meet the neces-

Notwithstanding the extraordinary
conditions prevailing during the war,
the department has attempted to do
that which no other country at war
has undertaken, namely, to conduct
the postal service without curtailment
or restriction of facilities or conVen-
fences to the public and at the same
time perform the numerous additional
duties and war activities imposed upon
it. I am not aware of any way in
which we can get in as close touch
with postal needs as through the
business organizations and representa-
tive business men of the country.
With this end in view 1 am re-
ouestfng that you advise me promptly
whether your postal service is salts
factory and meets the necessities Of
the business interests; if not, what are
the existing defects wherein the ser
vice should be remedied and inn
