EXPRESS COMPANY
SECURES INCREASE
ment Should Be Modified by Car
rierS.

Washington, Aug. 13.-Authority to
increase express rates 121a per cent
was granted the American Railway
Express Company today by the Inter
state Commerce Commission.
The increase by unofficial estimates
will add $35, 10000 to the annual in
come of the company. The commits
sion's decision, however, does not take
into consideration the recent award
Of the railroad labor board Of IN
creased wages approximating $43, ,000,-
cDO to express company employees, and
It is expected application soon will
be made by the company for an ad-
ditional advance in rates to meet the
wage scales.
Rates on milk and cream under The
commissions decision are further in
creased to correspond with the ad-
vance of &c per cent for the trans.
portation of such commodities author
lied the raolroads except where there
are no competing railroads between
ease an advance Of 1919 per cent is ;,u-
thoriZed.
In touching on the fact that the
express company had been allowed
only about half Of the increase asked
which was 25.lG per cent, the com-
mission expressed the opinion that the
full amount awarded SHOULD be re-
tanned by the express company itself
and that none of it should be allowed
&c the railroad carriers. The comr,is-
sion suggested that the present px-
press company contracts with the
ar'lroads under which 5O25 per cent
of it's gross earnings go to the roads
for the carrier service should be mod
flied to accomplish this purpose.
Permission was granted the COM
pany~ 80 make the new rates effective
upon one days notice by fling blan-
ket schedules with the commission,
but the company is required TO re-
issue it's tariffs within ninety days
of the effective date in the regular
manner.
Nothing in its decisions, the COM
mission adds, is to be taken as fore
casting the determination Of the ap-
plication of the Adams, American.

SUFFRAGE ISSUE SLAPPED IN FACE;
TENNESSEE HOUSE BLOCKS ACTION
NORTH CAROLINA TABLES MEASURE

the amendment until the General AS
selnbly meets in regular session in
1921. Suffragists had been encouraged
by advices from Raleigh that pros
poets of ratification there were hope
full and the sudden termination of the
fight was as unexpected as it was
disappointing.
1t was conceded by many suffragists
that whether women of the nation
would vote in the general elections in
November depended upon Tennessee.
Favorable action by Florida was said
to be out of the question and all eff
forts to persuade the Governors Of
Vermont and Connecticut to call the
legislatures Of those States in special
session have met with failure. Thir-
ty-five States have ratified the amend
ment, eight have rejected it and North
Carolina has postponed action until
next year. This, it was said, leaves
Tennessee virtually the last hope.

'SANTEf CROSSING WILL Be
DISCUSSED AT SUMMERTON
FRIDAY, AUGUST 10Th
Summerton, Aug. Id, 1920.

AS Mayor of Summerton, invite
you to attend an important meeting
of our citizens in the Summerton
School House at Summerton, S. c., on
Friday, the goth inst, to discuss plans
for building a bradge across the San
tee River -at Pinckncy's Landing.
AS you know, the State of South
Carolina, after $50 years of occupa-
ton, is still divided into two parts by
the Santee River, which is not crossed
by single public road throughout it's
entire course. This condition can no
longer be tolerated in this era Of
prosperity and progress.
Pinckney's Landing, in the western
part of Clarendon County, is recon-
mended by the State Highway Com
mission as probably the best place to
cross the Santee, the swamp there be-
ing only two miles wide and higher
and drier than at any other point. A
preliminary survey of this site has al
ready been made by the Commission
and estimates made of the probable
cost, which will be relatively small
The people of this community feel
that this bridge is a matter of vital
Importance, and are determined to see
that it is built. They prefer that it
should be public bridge built by the
adjoining counties with federal aid ;
if not they propose to form stock
company and establish a toll bridge.
For this purpose you are earnestly
invited to be present at this meeting
to discuss plans to be held in the
Summerton School House at IL noon,
Friday, August Goth.
Yours very truly,
d. Dukes Carson,
Mayor.

HEALTH NOTES

The tuberculosis survey i'm this coun-
ty being carried steadily forward by
the Public Health Nurse, and will be
continued during August and Septcm-
ber as these are months set aside by
the State Board Of Health for concen-
trated effort i'm the Gght against tu-
berculosis.
Miss Moore wishes to stres sthe cdu-
cational feature of the anti tubcrculo-
sis campaign, since She feels that wide
enough publicity has not been given to
the fact that tuberculosis can be cured
Some years ago diagnosis of tubcr-
culosis was felt to be much the same
as a death warrant. Nowadays the
patient knows-or should know--that
it is merely warning that he must
so live that nature will be given an
opportunity to repair the damage that
has been done He also knows-or
snoUtd k"cw-.that there are certain
pl &c cautions he mus: take in or,.er nos
to communicate his sickness to those
with whom he comes in c"ntact.
These facts and many others about
tuberculosis should be known every
were. UnfNrtnnatcly they a~c not.

talk in any comm"nity which would be

TO the Citizens of the Town of
Manninp.


The members of the Darlington
baseball club desire to express public
ly their high appreciation of the hos
pitality extended to them by the pco-
pie of the town of Manning on the oc-
casion Of their recent visit. 1t is to be
regretted that not always is a visiting
team treated with such courtesy and
good fellowship. BY taking the play
ers into their homes and treating
them as honored GUESTS the people of
the town have found warm place i'm
the hearts of the players; and the
Manning Ball Club, by its sportsman
like conduct on and off the field, has
earned their respect and esteem. The
citizens of Darlington join with the
players in their appreciation, and
trust that they may nave an oppor-
tunity to return this good treatment.
