ATM. Pleasant
Was Only Myth

Five hundred Portuguese labOrers
imported to Mt. Pleasant to supply
the labor demand in Maury county
phosphate mines.
No, that is not bit of startling
news. 1t is only an illustration of
how rumors fly and grow as they fly.
The rumor was heard by The Herald
this morning. A reporter got on its
trail. The result:
A Mt. Pleasant business man knew
absolutely nothing about it, but re-
ferred the reporter to an official of a
phosphate company. The phosphate
official had heard nothing about the
Portuguese laborers, but understood
that another mine had employed
about so Porto Ricans. A represen-
tative of the company that was said
to have employed the Porto Ricans
was sought. He admitted that he
had employed some Porto Ricans, bun
not so, only IL of them. Then, to
burst the bubble completely. he said
that they had been employed several
months ago. were found unsatisfacto
ry and all of them are gone.
Thus ended the rumor and the labor
shortage has not been supplied.
