To Make More Profit,
States S. c. Senator

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-Cotton
mills Of the south and New England

position to make greater profits now
with cotton selling at a low price
and with their products cut 33 la
per cent, than during the recent
days of 40 cent cotton, when, he said
the profits of many mills amounted
to 800 per cent.
The South Carolina senator charg-
ed that the mills had not reduced
the prices of their products to cor
respond with the drop In the price
Of cotton and also in many cases. in
the wages Of workers. The price of
raw cotton, he said. had declined 200
per cent, while the prices received by
the mills for the finished products
had fallen only 33 ID per cent.
The senator upbraided those who,
he SAID had declared "let the farm
ers take their medicine" in the form
of falling prices
Many rnillionaires were made dur
ing the war;" he continued, but not
one of them came from the farmers.
You stand here haggling about anti
trust laws, breaking the hearts of
the farmers when thousands are suf-
fering.'
Senator Smith declared there was
as much or more profteering today
"in dollars" as there had been a
year ago in commodities" although
no word of criticism was heard. He
quoted Secretary Meredith to the ef-
feet that the farmers already had
lost more than $4,000 100000 this

Poverty and Penagra
Go Hand in Hand, Says
u. S. Health Service

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-Poverty
and pellegra go hand in hand, the
United States public health service
concludes after three-year study
of the disease in the cotton mills of
South Carolina.
"As the income fell the disease
was found to increase and to affect
more and more other members OF
the same family" says an announce
ment by the service. "As the income
rose, the disease decreased and was
rarely found in families that enjoy
ed the highest incomes, even though
this highest was still quite low.
differences among families with
tn esame incomes are attributed by
the report to differences in the ex-
penditures for food, Intelligence of
the housewife, and ownership of
cows, gardens, etc. Differences
among villages which were econo-
nically similar are attributed to diff
ferences in the availability and con-
dition of food in local markets
"a recent statement by one of he
largest life insurance companies in
the United States indicates that the
food standards of southern wage
earners must have improved re-
markably of late for the death rate
from pellagra has fallen from 6.7

Economy Must Be
farmers Watchword,
Declares DR.. Soule

ATHENS. Ga, Dec. 16.-"Georg1a
needs a normal agricultural produc-
ton in 1921" said Dr. Andrew M
SouIe in speaking to 100 county agr1-
cultural agents and home demonstra-
tion agents assembled in annual con-
ference at the Georgia State College
of Agriculture in Athens. THE most
essential thing for next year is eco
nomical production. The cost of crop,
especially cotton, must be held to a
very low point. No one can tell yet
will sell, but the farmer must be
prepared for low market.
"The greatest factor is economic
ally growing a cotton crop and maxi
ing at home our feeds and food sup
plies Georgia farmers bought $685.
100000 worth of feed and food crops
which could have been produced eco
nonlically in this state this year.
We have not put enough emphasis
on the home garden. home poultry
and dairy supplies in the past. Our
corn crop this year was approX1-
mately 100000 bushels less than
the amount necessary to supply Geor-
gia.
Normal production seems to be
the best method of getting back to
normal conditions. We should in
crease our supply crops to feed our
tic animals in order to produce our
cash crops in a most economical
manner"
Others addressing the agents in
session were Director J. Phil Camp
bell and Miss Mary q. ,Creswell.

Twenty Americans Are
Still Held Prisoners
OfBolsheviki Forces

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-Twenty
American citizens are still held as
prisoners of the Russian Bolshevists,
it was said today at the state depart
ment. Included in this number is
Mrs. Marguerite Harrison, sister-in-
law Of Governor Richie, of Mary
land, who went to Russia as a cor
respondent.
Most of the prisoners are detained
at Moscow. At least one of the
Americans, according to latest ad-
vices. has been held in solitary con-
finement for nearly two years, caus-
ing his health to- be greatly under
mined.
The state department has made
repeated efforts to secure the Ameri-
cans liberation through Scandinavian
and other channels, but without sue
cess. Efforts are being continued,
but officials said that to disclose
their nature would defeat the work
of liberation. Some Of the Americans
have been charged with espionage,

$1,000 Stolen From
Representative Salmon

ROME, Ca, Dec. 16.---The home Of
John w. Salmon, one Of Floyd coun-
tvs representative in the legislature,
was entered by burglar, and $1,000
in currency was taken from a cigar
box in a closet of Mr.. Sa1mon's bed
room, his home being at Armuchee, a
village nine miles north of Rome. The
thief entered the house through a
window in the living room and made
his way into the closet where the
money was secreted. The owner be-
lieves that the thief was someone in
the neighborhood who had learned
that he kept money in the house.
There is no clue to the robber.
Mr.. Salmon is one of the largest
land owners in the county, having
purchased thousands of acres during
the past summer. He is heavily in
volved in litigation concerning some
purchases and therefore kept money
in cash at home instead of depositing
it in the bank where it might be SUBJ
ject to punishment or attachment.

NEGOTIATIONS NOT STOPPED.
>. =. BY BURNING OF CORK


Especial Cable to the Chicago Daily News
Foreign Service, by Leased Wire to
The Atlanta Journal.)
Copyright, 1920)
LONDON, Dec. 16.-The events in
Cork have not had any effect on the
course of the negotiations for peace
between the British government and
certain private Irish citizens. A tele-
gram was sent last night to Father
O'Flanigan permitting him to talk
with Arthur Griffith in Mount Joy
prison as requested, and to COM
municate by cable as much as he
pleased with Eamonn De Valera, in
New York.
It is hoped in this way to prove
that Father O'Flanigan really does
represent the moderate elements of
the Sim Fein. The prison CONVERSE
ton will. it is believed. turn about
the proposed meeting of the Dan
Eireann OF Irish parliament and the
Irish attitude with respect to 1t.
The British cabinet now seems TO
be convinced that this Is the only
way out of the Irish crisis. 1t in
tends to offer no basis for delibera-
tions. but to let Irishmen-both Sim
Feiners and Ulsterites-detine con-
structively what is best for Ireland.
Strange to say. however. the view
persists in the foreign office here
that ireland really does not want in
dependence after all. The officials
solemnly assure this correspondent
that four-fifths of the Sim Feiners
would be content with autonomy less
comprehensive than that Of Canada.
Whence this optimism comes 1t is
hard TO say,

Sow Runs Amuck
With Deadly Pistol

PARIS, Tex-Shortly after Jess
Bramblett. farmer living near here,
and his neighbor, John Hampton, had
finished shooting five hogs at the
annual killing, they left the still
loaded automatic pistol in the hog
lot while they helped the negroes do
the scalding. They intended to re-
turn and kill some more hogs.
Evidently when Jess and his friend
returned to the lot, an old sow wal
lowing in the mud thought her time
had come. She grabbed the auto
matte in her mouth and began chas-
ing the men.
Fearing the teeth would release
their lives. Just as Hampton reached
the fence the first bullet went off
and grazed his shin. The next found
lodging place in Bramblett's leg.

Chicago Physicians
Start Fight to Issue
Liquor Prescriptions

.CHICAGO.-A suit in equity to re-
strain the district federal prohibition
director, Ralph w. Stone, from re-
fusing to issue prescription blanks
for alcoholic liquor to physicians as
required by doctors, instead of a linn
tied number each month, has been
filed in the United States district
court by DIR. E. P. Murdoch, presi-
dent of the American Protective Med
ical fraternity
1t is alleged that the eighteenth
amendment merely forbids the use
of alcoholic liquors for beverage
purposes and places no restrictions
on medical uses.
1t is also averred that the Volstead
enforcement act does not limit ply
sicians as to the number of blanks
on which prescriptions for whisky
and other alcoholic mixtures may be
written.
The first reuling in connection
with alcoholic prescriptions limited
doctors to 100 a month"; but later Ma
tionai Prohibition Director Kramer,
at Washington. ordered that more
might be issued if need for an extra
supply could be shown by any doctor.
1t is said that Mr.. Stone has placed
the burden of proof on doctors and
that the suit is brought to determine

BRITISHLABOR
MOVES FOR IRISH
FARLEY ON PEACE

LONDON, Dec. 16.--British labor
! today began an offensive for peace in
ireland.
After a long forenoon session an
executive commission, representing
the labor party, arranged to send Il
deputation to Premier Lloyd George
in the interest. of peace. The com
mission heard the report of Arthur
Henderson and other laborites who
recently investigated conditions in
Ireland
Meanwhile there was reviving in
terest in peace negotiations. Some
Of this was due to the letter of Faith
err OFlanagan to Premier Lloyd
George. Lloyd George, while reject
ing O'Flanagan's offer, left the way
open for O'Flanagan to continue ne
gotiations.
Business is reviving in Ireland as
Il result of reports that railway
workers will no longer refuse to OPP
crate the roads. Only in the south
western district is there paralysis
In many cities shopkeepers have
boarded up their windows and sought
the comparative safety of the open
country.
In Cork the exodus of business men
has left serious problem in the
feeding of the population forced to
remain. It was believed the military
might have to undertake some meth
cd of provisioning.
Troops continued in full control
there today with additional forces re-
porting almost hourly. There were
no official statements as to the plans
for extending the martial law dis

C0MeRF0RD ON SOCIALISM

Frank Comerford of Chicago gave 2
talk Tuesday evening at the opera
house under the auspices of the Con-
stitutional Defense league
There was not very large audience,
which was a misfortune as every voter
in Manitowoc should have heard the
speech. His main theme was an argu-
ment against Socialism and a plea for
the sharing of profits between capital
and labor. From his own observation
he pictured conditions under the soviet
government in Russia, explaining that
it is a government by minority kept
in power through Tammany political
machine of Lenine and Trotsky. He
also explained how actual economic
socialism in Russia is a ghastly failure;
that production in industry, through
lack of incentive and lack of intelligent
management, which refuses to partici-
pate unless adequately compensated,
has decreased and to minimum re-
sulting in hideous poverty and starva-
ton.
Mr., Comerford is good public
speaker. He held the audience willing
captives several times by bursts of
beautiful imagery, declaimed with SUI
perb effect. He castigated the three
groups, Communist party, the |. w. W.
and the Socialist "who followed Debs"
as made up of people who believe in
altering our form of government by
unlawful means.
All in all it was an entertaining and
Illuminating discussion of live subjects
that the hearing of which would have
benefited a lot of our well meaning
citizens who were not present
