MARYLAND TO HOLD ITS REPUTATION
AS LARGE TOBACCO GROWING STATE

world war it was largely raised
with little profit. the growers be-
ing content to make only living
out of the business. Since then.
and since the growers have been
organized. receiving more infor-
nation on the subject. there has
been some dissatisfaction ex-
pressed, with a more general and
growing demand for improvement
in market prices.
Because large part of the
1919 crop was Of inferior grade.
much of 1t remains unsold in the
hands of commission men and the
growers association. The 1890
crop being of more desirable
quality, the market is active.
bringing more satisfactory prices
on the better grades. The COM
mon seconds and green tips are
hard to move at anything like
satisfactory price, and unfortu-
nately the latter grades predomt-
nate more largely in the 1871
crop than was expected.
Prices Advance.

tobacco have advanced from IS to
Ss a hundred pounds since the
opening Of the market last April,

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, July 23.-The
rich tobacco-growing lands Of
southern Maryland are not to be
abandoned or devoted to other
crop raising purposes. nor is
Maryland to lose its fame as a
tobacco growing state and its
business in tobacco exports, the
larger portion Of which goes to
France.
This is the opinion Of George L.
Gardiner, manager Of the Mary
land Tobacco Growers Associa-
tion, expressed in rebuttal of
alarm occasioned by reports that
many tobacco growers in southern
Maryland are planning to go out
of business at the close of the
present year unless some hope Is
held out to them through an ad-
vance in the price of the crop be-
ing offered on the Baltimore
market.

THE KNOWING ONE
BY WALT MASON


If had John II. Millions harp, my
brow in wreaths arrayed, I'd sing an
ode about the sharp who truly knows
his trade, be it the boning of a carp.
or filing of a spade. Nine workmen
tried to fix my bus, which had been
hitting wrong; for days | saw with it
fuss, the while their bill grew long,
and / could only weep and cuss, when
scheduled for a song. They held an
inquest on my cart. that was of little
use; they took the motor all apart, and
pried the crankshaft loose, to find out
why things wouldn't start when they
applied the juice. And when their
greasy toll was done. the boat was
just the same: the whatyoucallit
wouldn't run, the thingumbob was
lame; and it had taken all my mon to
pay them for their game. They might
have made good auctioneeEs, or cor
oners, or clerks; they might have won
out herding steers, or preaching in
the kinks; but they were lemons, it
appears among motors works. And
then came workman Number Ten,
when those nine jays were gone; yea,
one Of natures noblemen came skip
ping up the lawn; he came to earn an
honest yen, and did. so help me John.
He was man Of pep and sense,
workman skilled was he, and in an
hour he banished thence the grief that
spoiled my glee, and my ole car would
jump a fence or climb a banyan
tree. a.s

NEW YORK, Jan. characterization
OF alleged graft and corruption in the

nounced, in connection with the in
dictment of police captain William A.

cepting bride from fur manufactur-
ers to prevent possible sabotage by
striking employees, that he would in
quire into reports of misconduct in
several other lines besides the noI'oa
department. Mr.. Whitman plainly init
mated that he expected other indict-
ments to be returned soon.
He said important leads had come
to him in documents presented by
Meier Steinbrink counsel f~- thn
board of estimate in the recent inves-
tigation into city building contracts
The fur manufacturers association re-
ported il had so far been unable to &C
count for more than SO 900 of a $50. 600
strike fund. Mr.. Whitman asserted
he had evidence that many furriers
had paid fees to the police for extra
ordinary efforts in recovering stolen
property.
He said that among the illegal prac-
! tees he would attempt to reveal in
the investigation were: Exacting pay
ment for ordinary police duty, selling
| extraordinary protection against burg
lars and other criminals, negligence in
efforts to recover stolen property I'M
less promises of lucrative gratiuties

| fusion with private detective agencies.

James Gibbons Hrneker, that ever

ator on things artistic, who comes
nearer being the American Shaw or
Chesterton than any other writer l
know of, has many lines of brilliant
wit and satire in his volume, Bed

me than the reference in a couple of
places to passionate press agents.
Why not make witticism on this for
your column? There are a lot of re-
sponsive souls who would get a
chuckle out of it. Felix Orman.

Hear the Grammar School Concert

The first concert of the Richmond grammar
school orchestra will be held at the high school
auditorium this evening. The public should not
overlook the opportunity to hear the children
play. This orchestra is not as well known as the
high school orchestra, for it is comparatively
new organization.
We want to keep in mind, however, that the
members of the grammar school orchestra are
the future members of the high school organiza-
ton, and these in turn will graduate into the
symphony orchestra.
1t may seem strange to many of us to be in
vited to attend musical performance in which
the players members of the grammar school,
but we forget that musical education in Rich
mond has undergone wonderful development in
the last 10 or Is years.
The general interest of children and adults
has been cultivated assiduously not only in the
schools, but also in the homes and the clubs.
Whereas formerly only small percentage of the
children "took lessons" hundreds of young chill
dren are today under the capable instruction of
competent music teachers and are receiving en-
enlargement in the schools to pursue the study
Of music
The grammar school orchestra is a manifes-
tation of this general development of our musical
life which has escaped our notice and attention.

Supporting the Orchestra

The good progress that is noted in the sale of
tickets for the concerts which the Richmond
Symphony orchestra will give this season indi-
Gates that the public intends to support the re-
juvenated organization.
The members of the orchestra giving
their time and attention to the preparation of an
excellent concert season, and their hard work
should be rewarded by capacity audiences. Of
this there will be no question, the seat sale so
far is moving along in manner that is satisfac-
tory to the men who are backing the movement
The public, however, should remember that
the future development of the orchestra depends
upon the support which is given in the first sea-
son. The tickets are selling at popular price to-
assure a large audience. If the people absorb
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1921-01-15

the tickets freely and without urging, it will DEM
onstrate to the public spirited men who assumed
the burden of recognizing the orchestra that
the citizens of Richmond really want the organ
ization placed on a solid footing
Richmond's reputation as a city loving music
is well established. 1t gained it's high standing in
this respect, however, by years of slow growth.
If the orchestra is able to enjoy the support of
the public generously the first season, the leaders
of the orchestra and it's members will be encour-
aged to increase their efforts in the development
of their art.
