Ex-Governor Manning,
Chairman, Busy In
Organization

COLUMBIA, S. c., Oct. 27-Ex-
Governor Richard I. Manning, chair
man of the organization committee
of the American Products Export and
Import corporation, stated that he
has just received the following tele-
gram from Judge w. F. Ramsey, gov
ernor of the Federal Reserve board
at Dallas. Texas:
eve are making rapid progress in
the formation of export corporation
and request a conference with you
looking to combining two corpora
TONS"
Governor Manning stated that it
was the opinion of those in charge
of organizing the American Prod
ucts Export and Import corporation
that there is room for and should be
two corporations one representing
the producers west of the Mississippi
and one east of the Mississippi, as the
two sections are not governed by the
same conditions and their crops are
of different character
Governor Manning further stated
that the farmers, as well as the bust
ness interests who will be benefited
by the operation of the proposed cor
poration should act now and not de-
Law further. Subscriptions to the cap
ital stock of the export corporation
totals approximately eight hundred

A Pair Of Appeals

Southern PEOPLE that he should I'M
mediate remove the regro filing
the position of national committee
man from 1 { State of Georgia. Mr..
Harding IN Lis ChattaaN0gl sped.
assured the South it would have a
square deal, yet, his representative
in one of the leading states of the
South is negro and there is but
one deduction. the black man in the
South will be appointed to federal
positions to appease the black man
in the North.
Will the Democrats of the South
stand idly by and watch their rep
resentation in Congress cut down?
The above indictment ofintent and
purpose may be brought against the
Republican party. The hope of the
South is united white democracy.
Will the Southern people refuse to
support the Democrats of the North
who are making such valiant fight
against the forces of greed and cor
ruption?
We want this money toeducate
our people, on the hand the Repub-
lican party has raised millions of dol
lars to debauch our people.
Can you Democrats of the South
refuse another day to do your bit
in this important fight? The path
of duty is clear. Never were there
greater issues. The very happiness
of your homes are threatened. The
general election will be held in a
few weeks. Let every man who loves
the South who believes in the high
ideals of Democracy who longs tC
see a torn and troubled world sci
right, Immediately make contri
button to this noble battle which is
now being waged in all parts of the
United States.
I leave the cause with the emo
Gratis of the South. I do not believe
they will fail the Democratic party
in this hour which is the most inn
portant in two score years. Thi
is the final appeal. If the Demo
Gratis of the South do not RESPOND
and the heavy hand of Republican
rule is used to wreck our every prin
ciple then, the democrats of III
South have onlv themselves to blame

Assistant Treasurer, Democratic Ma

be heard. from. Unless the unfore-
seen happens the corporation will be
launched within short time.
There is to be a meeting of the
entire organization committee on
Thursday. November 4, and Cover
nor Manning stated that he was urg-
ing his co-workers in the soliciting of
subscriptions to the stock to do in
tensive work between now and No

that time the committee should have
full reports from all counties in
South Carolina in order that it NAV
perfect its arrangements for Offering

South that will join US in this corpor-
alton.

Governor Manning, "that the pro-
posed bankers export corporation as
outlined at their Washington confer
ence, to be formed under the Edge
Act will not be in conflict with the
American Products Export and I'M
port CORPORATION, but that when or
gained it will cooperate and work in
our interests"
Governor Manning has lust left for
Little Rock, Ark, in the interest of
his export company and will return
to South Carolina the latter part of
the week.

FOR SKIN TORTURES
Zemo, the Clean, Antiseptic
Liquid, Just What You
Need. Is Not Greasy

Don't worry about eczema or other
skin troubles. You can have a clear,
healthy skin by using Zemo OBJ
tanned at any drug store for 35c, or
extra large bottle for $100.
Zemo generally removes plrnples,
blackheads, blotches, eczema and ring
worm and makes the skin clear and
healthy, Zemo is a clean, penetrating
antiseptic liquid, neither sticky nor
greasy and stains nothing. 1t is easily
applied and costs mere trifie for each
application. 1t is always dependable,

sdnder the auspices of the American
Legion, is working its way to West
Palm Beach, Fla, for a 10 weeks
winter engagement, and comes to
this city from a series of notable
engagements which are in themselves
a high recommendation of the sterling
character fthe entertainment which
these young musicians furnish. From
August Is to 20, inclusive, the band
was engaged at Lake Harriet roof
garden in Minneapolis, where. ac-
cording to the official statement of
the Captain of the Park Police at
that place it played to tie largest
throngs ever assembled at that pop
ular resort. The band went directly
from Minneapolis to the Wisconsin
state fair at Milwaukee where it was
the feature musical attraction, Civ
ing two concerts daily in front Of the

carries a number of talented soloists
and Mr.. Bachman promises an enter

To the Democrats of the South:
The tide of victory has turned.
There will be a triumphant Democ-
racy in November, no matter how
loud the calamity gang may nowl.
The South has never been so pros
porous as during the seven years CT
Democratic administration. Study
the tax record of your state and you
will see that the citizens of your
state are worth millions today more
than they were in 1912. If the
South was broke it would be a diff
ferent story. | cannot understand
why a prosperous South will not sup
port to the limit the magnificent
fight which Governor James NJ. Cox
is making.
The Democrats of the Southern
states have. contributed one fourth
of theamount expected by the ma
tional Democratic committee.
Let me put these questions to the
Democrats of the Southern states
Will you stand idly by and watch
the destruction of the Federal Re
serve Bank system, which has meant
the financial salvation of the South
ern states?
Will you stand idly in your tracks
and watch important Federal offices
filled by negroes In this connection
