H. c. l..

That the whole world is strug-
Cling with the increased cost of
living is indicated in reports to the
state department at Washington.
The increases in Europe are par
ticularly high, although in Latin
America the governments are anx-
ious over the situation and are try
ing to find means of combating the
difficulties presented by the high
prices of commodities deemed essen
tial
In Portugal, the government, in
an attempt TO lower the cost of
living, has placed, through the min
lister of finance, a part Of IT'S gold
reserves in the banks of Lisbon.
= In England, the cost Of living
above pre-war level is figured at lis
percent for September and 100 per-
cent for October, as to actual ne
cessities of life, and based upon
average living conditions of wage
earners. A more distinct rise has
occurred in the cost of commodities
so far as the other elements OF
population in England are concern
ed, being unoffcialiy estimated by
some at approximately is5 percent,
with a steady upward trend.
In Sweden, figures furnished by
the Swedish government indicate
that the cost of living has increased
1877 percent over the cost in June.
1914. In the cities the increase
has been very much greater than
the average for the country.
The Argentine government has
suggested TO other South American
countries and discussed with them
an international arrangement with a
view to doing away with import
duties on manufactured food
products as enc means of cutting
down the high cost of living. In
formation which has reached the
state department regarding this plan
is 10 the effect that a suggestion
has been made that a conference
be called by the Argentine minister
for foreign affairs to discuss this
question of exchange OF real neces-
sites of life free Of customs
charges.
In Brazil the tariff is being re-
vised with view to reducing the
cost Of living in that country. In
Uruguay the percentage of increase
of the present cost of living over
the cost in June, 1914. is estimated
by the Uruguayan government at
food 50 percent, fuel 48 percent.

ARTEsIA TO SUPPORT TEMPLE

AS result of a personal conference
participated in by representatives
from the Dokey organization in Co
lumbus with the members Of the fra
ternity who reside at Artesia, the en-
tire membership at the latter place
will support most cordially the move
ment looking to the establishment Of
q temple Of the Dramatic Order
Knights of Khorassan IN Columbus.
There are quite number of inhu-
entail members of the order at Ar
tesla and their aid and support will
add materially to the chances of Co
lumbus securing the temple.
Fine Roadway is being made in the
movement and within the next few
days it is believed sufficient eneour-
agement viii have been received to
make formal application for the tenn
pie.

PrOminnet Government
Official Here on Visit

Hon. W. H. Scherfius and wife, OF
Pretoria, South Africa. are in the
city and county on a visit. Mrs
Scherffius was formerly Miss Lucy
Sparks, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs
Sims Sparks, of the Dunbar neigh
bOrhood. Mr.. Scherffius is back in
the States after a ten years alb
sence, and Mrs. Scherffins is here af-
ter a three years absence, and they
are both being cordially welcomed by
all of their friends.
Mr.. Scherfius holds a very respon-
sible position, being chief Of the Cot
ton and Tobacco Division of the Agri-
cultural Department of the British
government in South Africa, a posi-
tion he has held for the past ten
years. He has been sent to the States
to study the by-produets of cotton
seed and the Havana tobacco business
in Cuba, and leaves this week to en-
gage in this work.
He talks most interestingly and in
structively about the future of cot
ton and tobacco in South Africa.
When he undertook the development
Of cotton culture in the British South
African colonies there were only 200
acres devoted to cotton raising, while
now 200 acres were devoted to cot
ton raising the past season. The
The Columbus dispatch. (Columbus, Miss.) 19??-1922, 1919-06-08

quality of cotton produced is what
is known as American upland grade
the experiments in Egyptian and
Sea Island cotton in South Africa
having proved Improbable. To give
one an idea of the productive nature
of the soil of that section and the
adaptability of the climate to cotton
growing, Mr.. Scherffius cited one in
stance of farmer clearing $4,000
on 81 acres last year. This is an
exception rather than an average
case. Nearly all the cotton raised in
South Africa is exported to England,
while the 100000 pounds of tobac-
co produced is nearly all consumed in
the colonies.
Mr.. Scherfius says there is a great
field for cotton development in the
British colonies and there are 100 600
acres which will ultimately be de-
voted to its culture.
Mr.. Scherffius is a man Of broad
culture, with fine grasp of world
conditions and talks most interesting
ly of his experience in his field of
work. He is a native Kentuckian and
will visit his old home before re-
turning to South Africa.

CARROLLT0N, Miss, June 5-Re-

that Mr.. Williams follow the Alabama
method.

SUFFRAGE BILL
PASSES SENATE

WASHINGTON, June with
their fight in Congress won after
nearly 40 years of effort, advocates
of woman's suffrage today turned
their attention to the various state
Legislatures. three-fourths Of which
must ratify the constitutional amend
ment before victory can be won.
Realization of the hopes and efforts Of
the leaders in the equal suffrage cam
paign came late yesterday with the
adoption by the senate of the historic
Susan B. Anthony constitutional
amendment resolution which was
adopted in the House May 81. The
vote was 65 to Is or two more in
favor than was necessary.
Although supporters Of the measure
were jubilant at the action of Con-
gress and confident of final success.
there is a division Of opinion among
leaders as to whether the ratification
by the states of the proposed amend
ment can be secured in time for the
women all over the country to vote in
the next presidential election.
Chief opposition to ratification is
expected to come from Southern
states because Of the entailed en-
franehisement Of negro women. Sena.
tor Gay of Louisiana, in opposing the
resoll iOn, yesterday predicted that
the thirteen states would refuse to
ratify the amendment, thus causing
The Columbus dispatch. (Columbus, Miss.) 19??-1922, 1919-06-08

its defeat.
Susan B. Anthony, author Of the
resolution, had the draft Of the
amendment introduced in Congress by
Senator Sargent. of California, in
1873. Since that time there has been
almost a continuous fight with advo-
Gates of the measure slowly gaining
strength until after numerous defeats
victory crowned their efforts yester-
day.
