Break Is Possible

Washington, Feb 24.-Threats of a
break in the affiliated railroad en-
ployes organizations initiated tooay
against immediate solution Of the
questions before the representatives of
2, 900, 900 rail workers comforting here
on President Wilson's proposal for a
settlement of their wage demands.
Because of the wide divergence of
views held by the committeeman called
to Washington to consider the VIII te
House policy, executives of the organ
izations admitted that they did not
know whether they could hold tnv
strength they had gained when it was
agreed ten days ago that the organ
ization should affiliate to consider the
proposal.
In every conference, 1t was said, de-
mands for an appeal to the president
to veto the railroad bill continued to
grow more insistent. The leaders
therefore, were confronted with the
task of explaining to the local chair
men the basic reasons for their tenta-
tive acceptance Oh lne plesluehl PiNii'
Septlment Divided
The leaders also were forced to COM
bat moves of radical elements in sew
eral directions. They said these might
take definite form at any time.
That the general committee men are
not all IN favor of the presidents pro-
position was indicated by private dis
cussions among the executives as to
courses of action in event the plan Is
rejected e. J. Manion. president OF
the Brotherhood of Railroad Teleg-
raphers, was said to have suggested
that the whole controversy be referred
to the general membership. This pro
posal has not gained headway amons
the other executives. 1t was said. but Il
serves to indicate the trend of thought
of the leaders.

ANDERSON GIVEN
1855 POPULATION

Census Bureau, Showing Increase Of
Only SS1, Causes Great DisappOint-
ment. Figures for Two Towns to
be Announced Today.
Washington, March 26.-iPopulation
statistics for 1920, announced here to-
day by the census bureau, give the
population Of Anderson, S. c., as 1O,535
an increase Of SS1, or 81 per cent ov-
er 1910.
When the population Of Anderson
was announced considerable disap-
pointmcnt was shown by friends of
that place. 1t was believed the show
ing would be much better. Every part
Of the country is complaining about
the returns.
The population Of two South Caro-
Ina cities, Orangcburg and Sumter,
vii! be announced tomorrow.
Anderson, March 26.-The town bell
did not ring ont peals Of JOY and no
holiday was proclaimed for II ccle-
bration when the figure of 1854 was
announced today as the population of
Anderson as enumerated in the gov
ernment census for 1920
Disgruntled people in this city are
many as the result Of the announce
ment. More than one feels that the 81
per cent. increase during the past
ten years, which figures SS1 more per-
sons than in 1910, is a grave error and
one that cannot be rcctficd for ten
years to como.
The general opinion, before the Of
fetal announcement of the population
came, was that the number would run
to $1,000 or $4,000. Therefore, today's
announcement occasioncd a genuine
feeling Of surprise and diasppont-
mcnt.
Mayor FAINT states that the depart
urc OF negroes to the north and east,
attracted by :he high wages OF the
indnst' 4 plant, in those sections, pos
sibly is the chief reason for the rcla-
lively small increase. The fact is al

HOke Smith May be Forced to Let

Name Go OH Ticket In Preferential
Primary.
Atlanta, Ga, March 25.--Wnl U. S.
Senator Hol1e Smith, Gcorgia's senior
senator, run for president Of the
United States in the preferential
primary in Georgia on April 20?
He may be forced to do soto al
low his name to go ON the ticket and
receive the suffrage of favorite son,
in order to protect the interests of
the Democratic parity in his home
state.
Here is the situation in Georgia:
A vote for Attorney General Pal
mer is vote for the failure Of the
League Of Nations through Preside :
Wilson'S unwillingness to accept re-
servations, while a vote for Senator
Reed is vote for the complete re-
lection Of the whole covenant, re-
gardless Of any and all reservations
proposed.
Hoke Smith, although he expects to
be candidate for reelection to the
United States Senate, wants his state
to go on record as endorsing the
principles which promotes the sue
cess of the Democratic party as a
whole. His friends have been very
insistcnt that he allow his name to
go on the preferential primary tick
ct and Georgians in expressing their
preference for him at the same time
biggest question in national politics,
the League Of Nations.
Close friends Of the senator have
known for a long time that he want
ed to keep out Of the primary, in fact
he has repeatedly said as much him
self, but recent developments have
placed a new aspect on the situation.
Hence, Senator Smith is giving the
dccncst consideration 10 the hundreds
Of kilograms he has received and TO
personal calls made on him to enter
the primary. He thinks, and many
Democrats here and over the state
agree with him, that it would he
suicidal for the Democratic party to
go on such platform as is repro
sentcd either by Palmer or Reed.
"All that owe in public life is
to the Democrats OF Georgia." said
Senator Smith. They have honorcd
me in the past as they have few men
in the history Of the state, and |
could not willingly fail to do their
bidding or render them service
without showing the greatest ingrati-
tude.
ut is especially necessary for us
of the south to have the party win

my decision is made it will be made
