South Carolina citizens who nigh
be induced or cajoled into investing
good money in bad securities.
"The wildcat oil business" said Mr.
McSwain, "is the extreme of haz.
ardous speculation.
Established companies engaged ir
handling crude oil have stable anc
prosperous business.
"The public should know that OF
wells usually start at their maximum
production, and l was Informed that
production now is small in the Beau
mont section of Texas where the oil
business first reached large proper
tions.
ga gentleman who had been sue
cessful in the oil business said that
unless a company had large amount
of resources there was but little pros
pect of success in the oil business. He
said he was boring at the present
time wells that were costing $1,000
daily and that under best conditions
it would cost from $4,000 to $50
900 to bore one we'll. If accidents of
any sort hindered or delayed the
work, the cost would be around $100-
900 he said. He gave me these figures
to show the necessity for abundant
resources on the part of the company
operating.
"People thinking of investing in
oil stocks should remember that Tex
as is a large state, and the fact that
oil is discovered in one section is not
to be taken as conclusive evidence
that it will be found in section hum
dreds of miles distant from the first.
"My opinion of the oil business
was not improved by first hand OBJ
servation and as a result of the visit
to Texas will investigate more close
ly than ever before the prospectus Of

Hundreds Honor Confederate
Dead.

Washington, Jun 6.-Hundreds
joined with Confederate veterans to-
day in the annual memorial exercises
in honor of the heroes of the Confed-
eracy who are buried in Arlington
national cemetery. The exercises
which were under the auspices of
Camp No. I'll, United Confederate
Veterans, centered about the Con-
federate monument, a majestic shaft
reared by the Daughters of the Con-
federacy and marking that section
of Arlington cemetery set aside for
the burial of the Confederate dead.
At the base of the monument was
the Southern Cross" reproduction
of the stars and bars done in flowers.
This floral. tribute presented by
Camp No. 3O5, Sons Of Confederate
Veterans, was unveiled by Miss
Grace Roper assisted by Miss Marian
Upshur. Flowers were strewn on
each grave, which were marked, by
tiny American flags.
eve Southerners," said Represen-
tative R. Walton Moore Of Virginia,
who made the principal address of
the day, "yield to no one in our 10y
atty to the flag and our solicitude
for the integrity and welfare of the
Republic. We offer no apology for
the men and women who were iden-
titled with the Confederate cause,
and we shall never forget the remark
able courage and the fortitude, the
unfinching resolution and self sacri-
flee that distinguished the civil and
military operations of the Confeder-
acy and marked the conduct of the
people who followed the leadership
of Davis and Lee."
Mr.. Moore referred to the birth
day of jefferson Davis, which wa1
celebrated a few days ago, and re-
viewed the career of Mr.. Davis as
soldier, cabinet officer, representa-
tive and senator. He declared that
Mr.. Davis was devoted to the Union,
while his father, soldier of the
Revolution had helped to establish,
but that he always held to the con-
viction that the states had the right
to withdraw from the union without
being coerced to remain.
"While we all now adhere to the
constitution and government as mod
fed by the Confederate war;" de-
clared the speaker, "no intelligent
and truthful man could think or
speak of jefferson Davis and his fol-
lawers as traitors"

Cotton Outlook Not Promising,
McSwain Tells of Visit
Through Southern States

The finest cotton seen on a trip
through parts of Texas, Georgia
Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and
Couth Carolina was growing between
Columbia and Augusta according to
W. A. McSwain, state insurance CON-
missioner, who recently returned to
Columbia after having been in Texas
several days investigating certain oil
properties.
"In Louisiana" said Mr.. McSwain
yesterday, "the corn, sugar cane and
rice were in fine condition and were
growing luxuriantly. The rice was
especially fine, and was being flooded
when we passed through. The water
used in irrigating the rice fields
comes from deep wells. I did not pass
through the cotton growing section
of Louisiana.
SIN Mississippi, the cotton crop, as
I saw it, was as poor as it we'll could
be. 1t was not only late, but was
grassy, frequent rains having inter-
fered with the working of the crop.
Farmers l talked with said the cotton
was bad in their communities. The
corn crop in this state was fair so far
as I could judge from the car win
dow.
Finds Crops Grassy.
Conditions in Alabama were sim
liar to those in Mississippi. We pass
ed through the boil weevil section.
The wet weather which has been prev
alent in that section is said to be con-
ducive to the growth of the pest.
"In Texas we passed through the
cotton belt between Dallas and Tex
arkana. The plant was small in this
section and the fields were grassy.
In Arkansas the cotton crop was bet
ter as we approached Memphis"
"About the finest cotton I saw on
the whole trip was that between Co
lumbia and Augusta, and the corn
crop in that section was as good as
any I saw except in Louisiana where
the corn was further advanced than
in this state"
Talks of Oil Wells.
Mr.. McSwain's primary purpose in
visiting Texas was to investigate per-
sonally some of the oil wells and oil
properties. Numerous companies in
Texas have applied to him for per-
mits to sell stock in these concerns
to South Carolinians, and before
granting the permits Mr.. McSwain
wanted some first hand information.

Ruined Germany Weak Spot in
 Europe, Belief

LONDON, March 2. A note- worthy phase of the present meeting of the peace conference is the chang ed attitude toward Germany. Tn high diplomatic circles it is asserted that the conference has come to recog- nize that Germany ruined would mean weak spot, and dangerous spot, in Europe.
 How to set Germany on her feet is one of the largest questions the con- ference is now considering. It is con- sidered probable that it will sanction an international loan to Germany, butt he question of security is a basic one.
 It is expected that a plan will be arranged which will offer induce ments to the rich smaller neutral countries to subscribe to loan. The question of finally fixing Germany's war indemnities at a specific sum also is being discussed.

DISMISS 23 OF
 DEFENDANTS IN NEWBERRY CASE

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, March D. By dismissing the charges against 23 minor defendants, the government today narrowed the field in the New berry election conspiracy case to an even hundred defendants. The action came through Frank c. Daley, as sistant attorney general, just after he had announced the end of the pros ecution's direct testimony.
 Tomorrow has been set aside for motions and arguments. The first of the defense testimony is likely, there fore, not to be offered before Thurs day.
 It was predicted tonight that not to exceed three weeks will be devoted to defense testimony.
 It was said to be practically cer- tain that Senator Newberry would not be called to testify, his counsel taking the position that his continued absence from the senate during the campaign would make his testimony almost completely hearsay.
