clemenceau Coming Is Screen Author

clemenceau Coming Is Screen Author
Georges Clemenceau, "The Tiger
of France" the strongest man OF the
world conflict who, although ne has
passed the allotted threescore and
ten years, still retains all the vigor
of a man in his prime, has put into has
story, ssThe Strongest" which Will
liam Fox will present in It's MIN
form at the opera house on Tuesday,
all the force, all the strength, all the
personality that made him dictator OF
the peace terms which the Allies I'M
posed on the Germans. Georges
Clemenceau knows the world, he
knows life. His own life has been a
struggle, continuous and successful,
against opponents of unusual skill and
resourcefulness.
He has put into his one and only
novel, "The Strongest" which IS a
powerful story with a thrilling theme
"a story Of France today-charac-
ters which he knows thoroughly,
with which he has come IN contact.
They live, breathe, and have human
faults. Clemenceau does not make
his hero a demigod who can DO no
wrong, nor does he make his villain a
blacLguard who can do no right.
There is good in the bad of the world,
and in making his only photoplay
from his only novel, Georges Clemen-
'ceau has kept this ever before him:
internationally famous artists will
interpret the story which r. A. Walsh
has directed-the same Walsh who
directed ''The Honor System" EVAN
geline" and other great Fox successes.

ATTACK ON SOUTH
BY REPUBLICAN
Democrats Shout Lie" at illinois
Member But He Escapes
Physical Injury.
II NcGowan in The State.

p. H. MCGOWAN in The State.
Washington, May 1S.-The house
almost broke into a riot here today,
and for some time there was every ap-
pearance of serious trouble, when
Representative Madden, Republican,
of Chicago, got the floor and denounc-
ed Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson,
and others who wore the Confederate
uniform as traitors who tried to des-
troy the union.
The trouble came about when Rep
resentative Steadman of North Caro-
lima. replying to Madden's Interrupt
tioss of a speech endeavored last
Saturday by Upshaw of Georgia at
which time Madden made his first
statement relative to Confederate
soldiers.
Mr.. Steadman denied that any such
Infamous name should be given the
Confederate soldier, especially men OF
the type of Lee and Jackson. He
made a splendid speech in reply to
Madden's attack.
When Steadman had concluded
Madden took the floor and in some Of
the most bitter words ever heard in
the house denounced Lee, Jackson
and the Confederate soldiers in gen.
eral. Immediately there was a rush
of Democratic members from their
seats and Representative Rumjue OF
Missouri, ran for Madden. The
speaker declared that members must
remain in their seats. Instantly
when Madden had again repeated his
word, sstraitor" and said that he
apologized to no one for it's use,
there was mad rush from the
Democratic side and at least dozen
members shouted ''lie, lie, d-n lie"
Pandemonium broke loose and it was
not until Republican leaders got
Madden back to his seat and demand
ed that there be an end to his talk
that good sized riot was averted.
There is severe condemnation of
the Chicago member here, not only
by Democrats, but by practically all
also, first, because Of his
preventing Upshaw from making his
speech in the house Saturday to pen
sion Confederate veterans and for
his attack on Lee, jackson and other
Confederate leaders and soldiers.
Madden's remarks were the worst
ever uttered in congress against the
Southern cause.

"IS YOUR GIRL SAFE?"

DR.. John A. Rice, pastor of Trinity
Methodist church, Sumter, preached
a sermon recently that is attracting
attention. We have picked out a few
paragraphs from the published SER
mon:
''If the community encourages
combing the hair in certain way,
your girl will comb hers that way. II
the community makes dresses in a
certain way, your girl will make her
dress that way or there will be
trouble. No matter what it cost,
your girl must do as others do and
you must pay the bills. That girl
must have things considered right by
those she goes with, which being in
terpreted means by the community as
whole.
"You are aware of the rumors
current on our streets the last few
weeks. They disclose certain alarm
ing symptoms Of putrid social condl-
tions that demand instant and heroic
treatment. .
''One of our perils is the automo-
bile. It is alarming to see a group OF
half dozen girls and boys staving
through the streets at breakneck
speed without chaperone. It is ap-
palling to see a girl in. her teens
start to the country alone with
boy, who, like herself, is immature.
It is unspeakable to see girl sitting
on the front seat of an automobile be-
tween two bows while the back seat
is vacant, her arms in the attitude OF
embracing both. It is unthinkable
that girls out of our so-called best
families are allowed to 60 into groves
where automobiles assemble or else
where under cover of night, to come
back in the wee small hours of the
morning with the blackness of eternal
night in their souls; come back, l say,
to go the rest of the long way in the
grip of the consciousness Of an hours
moral shame.
81 could speak of dress as another
indecency. 1t looks as if women OF
the land are losing, if they have not
lost, the sense of modesty. Dresses
fashioned in the underworld of Paris
to reveal rather than conceal, are no
proper patterns for decency.
eve have been hearing rumors
lately as to certain dances. Look at
. that girl yonder; her head is falling
on the shoulders Of the man she is
hugging to her bosom. The music
stops suddenly, she slowly raises her
head and lets her hands down to her
side. She has desecrated the holiest
thing a woman has in this world or
any other world. She has tempted
that young man, carried him to the
very gates of hell, and she herself
has gone there with him. Look at
that boy and girl reeling out of the
dance hall to the sidewalk, their arms
around each other. Look at them
again, as they are hugging and kissing
on the street. Nobody may have seen
these pictures, but somebody saw
something that suggested that such
things were going on.
"Men now may talk as they please,
may suggest what their foul minds
concoct and nobody objects, nobody
c,-iticises-there is no field of honor.

THE MEANING OF THE
FOOD SHORTAGE

We shall need now to conserve 1000
and to preach increased food produc-
ton to a much greater extent than
during the war. Patriotism stirred
the farmers then to do their utmost
and count not the cost, and patriotism
brought about food conservation IN
nearly everyshome. But now the call
of patriotism is not so appealing,
though it is just as much needed. If
American people can not get food, or
if they have to pay an ever-adyanc-
ing price for it, there will be turmoil,
food riots and anarchy to threaten
our government. The need OF more
food production is clearly stated by
the Columbus (Ga.) Enquirer-Sun,
which clearly senses the whole situa-
ton. In discussing this question the
Enquirer-Sun says:
'tAnd yet the situation that con-
fronts the people, not only of the
South, but of the entire nation, is
serious. It would be useless to url-
dertake to disguise the fact. No one
can afford to close his eyes and re-
fuse to see that the situation is serl-
Gus.
eyes, we are aware of the fact
that there is much money in the
country. We know that the per
capita circulation is greater, perhaps,
than it has ever been in the history
of the nation, but that fact does not
get us anywhere when we are con-
fronted bv under-production. The
demand for the necessities of life is
greater than the supply. Too many
people are undertaking to reap where
they do not SOW. There are too many
consumers and too few producers.
cit doesn't matter how much
money a man may have with which
to paw for something if that some
thing is not to be had. We have seen
this fact demonstrated during the
past two or three years.
cat one time wheat flour was so
scarce purchasers were limited to so
much, and it was the same way with
sugar. At one time, for instance, 1T
didn't matter if a man had barrel
of money he could buy only three
pounds of sugar. So it is not always
the case that the man with the money
can do all that he wants to do.
cit is a great problem that is con-
fronting the country. 1t is the prob
lem of production.
"Unless there shall be greater pro-
duction this year than indications
now point that there will be, the peo-
pie of the entire country are going
to experience real hard times before
another crop can be grown after the

Mr.. A. B. Jordan of Dillon, Presi-
dent of South Carolina Press associa-
ton, united with Governor Robert A..
Cooper in inviting a representative
of each of the newspapers OF South
Carolina to attend luncheon in
Columbia on Tuesday, May II. Mr..
Jordan is member of the State
Executive committee which has active
management of the expansion cam
paign which has been announced by
the South Carolina development
board, Below is portion Of Mr..
Jordan's remarks at the luncheon:
Gentlemen, I have listened with a
great deal of interest to what has
been said here today. The impress
sion that has been made upon me is
that this is great work which has
been undertaken by a few patriotic
men in South Carolina.
have been reading the literature
which has been sent me from day to
day, and, if the South Carolina De.
velopment board can accomplish half
as much as they have undertaken to
accomplish, the people, not only the
farmers, but the business men OF all
professions and industries, will have
been greatly benefited.
L am not sufficiently familiar with
the subject to make any extended re-
marks, but, in glancing over the pro-
gram that the development board has
mapped out, next to the matter OF
education, the subject which appeals
to me most is drainage and dra mage
projects. This is due probably to the
fact that I live in section that is
badly in need of drainage and l was
raised in the lower part of this State
realized years ago that the only
way that section could be successful
ly developed was through drainage:
NV mind goes back to my boyhood
days. Twenty-Five or thirty years
ago, used to find in the negro CABINS
two or three frogs tied to a bed post.
1t was superstition that the frog
kept off malaria and all manner of
diseases.
Science came along and told us
that the mosquito transmitted maia-
ria. AS boys you and | sat on the
bank of a pool and watched the frogs
devouring mosquitoes. We kno"
now that the ignorant negro was
struggling upward to make living con
ditions better.
Now there is no way Of estimating
what it has cost South Carolina te
permit stagnant creeks and swamps
to exist. If through the work of this
board those swamps can be drained
if the low lands can be made more
productive. that work alone will have
accomplished something that will IN
crease efficiency 100 per cent. anc
will add millions to the wealth Of
South Carolina.
It is going to require big efor
to put things through, and l don't say
that success is impossible withou'
the assistance Of the press, but the
work that these gentlemen have un
Nertaken can be made a great dea
easier if they can get the cooperation

Stock in Hands of Iowa Farmers
Larger Than Year Ago.
Des Moines, March 10.-Iowa farm
ers are starting the new farm year
with 100000 more bushels of corn
in the crib than they had on March
l of last year, a total of 166,500,oOO
bushels of corn being on hand, &C
cording TO figures issued yesterday
by the Iowa cooperative crop re-
porting service. While 40 per cent of
the total crop for 1919 is still on the
farms, only IS of the remaining SO
per cent has been shipped from the
state.
About 80 per cent of the oats
crop last year or nearly 26,S00,000
bushels less than last year, are
now in the bins. OF the remaining
81 per cent about two-thirds will be
shipped out of the state.
Wheat and barley are not kept
over the winter in large amounts for
only II per cent OF the wheat and 81
per cent OF the barley is still in the
possession of the farmer. About 81
per cent of the wheat and IS per
cent OF the barley will be sold out
side of the state.
The report also estimates the in
crease in farm values during the
last year, giving a raise in value for
poor pillow lands from an average OF
1929 to 1857 an acre. Good pillow
lands jumped from s1se to 1857 an
acre, and the average from 1859 to
1919. Improved lands showed an in
crease from 1872 to s255 and unim-
proved lands from s156 to S205.
