THE LONG TRAIL

There are still to be written many
chapters of how the motor car has
affected our daily life; for it has by
no means reached the limits OF Its
usefulness. OF late it is being put
more and more to a new use. 1t has
given us the individual known as
the automobile camper. This fol-
lower of the open road differs from
the automobile tourist whom we have
had with us for some time, in that
the latter merely uses his automo-
bile to take him from hotel in one
city to another. The automobile
camper is q different bird of passage.
He carries with him beside his
family an ingenious camping outfit
OF his own devising. In tents at
the roadside or on the banks of a
little stream they spend the night;
and here the smell OF fried bacon
and coffee fiNs the morning air.
Theirs is no particular destination;
nor do they travel on schedule. The
road slipping by, mile on mile; a
glimpse Of wild plains and hills be-
yond; the strange noises of the night
in quiet places-these are the sim
pie but enduring joys OF the follow
er Of the open road. For nothing in
the world would they exchange a
months outing of this kind.
Surely the automobile has i'm
measurably increased our opportuni-
ties for Wholesale enjoyment.

mas hope OF proving himself guiltless
that he has an opportunity to do SO.
The trial will offer every player op-
portunity to clear himself and il he
comes through the ordeal he will do
so with flying colors and will have a
much better opportunity to reestab-
lish himself in public esteem than he
would have had, providing the case
had been thrown out of court on the
purely technical grounds that were
made to serve as a basis of the con-
teptions of the attorneys for the in
dfcted players. The verdict would
have been accepted as mot guilty,
but don't do it again" and such a
verdict in the case of men who de-
pend upon a public. sometimes fickle.
but always wrathful when it consid-
ers itself wronged, would have been
just as fatal for their future as one
of guilty" following an open trial.

II was set up by counsel for the
Fisheries Products Company that this
action had tied up its cash and Sc
curities and thus hindered the opera
tions of the company.
After the lawyers had finished with
the presentation of their sides. Judge
Bond asked them a number of quest
ions, among them one being, whether
a certificate of deposit is negotiable
paper, and it was unanimously agreed
that it is.
The banks bought these certificates
of deposit from the seller of the
notes which had been given in ex-
change for stock in the company.
The case has occupied the entire

when we went to press had not been

CUTTING WAGES.

Cutting wages is the order Of the
day in every industry, and the best
part of it is that employees are TAX
ing the matter good naturedly, hav-
ing come to an understanding that II
is a necessity in the face of recon
struction following the great war
which put the cost of living up and
wages followed as a matter of course.
The cost of living is coming down
through the competition which usu-
ally straightens out everything,
whether it be wages or commodities.
The only thing in the way of great
er reduction in wages is the rent
proposition. On account of the con-
gestion and the great demand for
houses owners of houses taking ad-
vantage of the demand have not only
maintained rents, but in some in
stances have advanced them. This
should not be. It is a great pity that
some way cannot be found to provide
enough houses for people at a reason
able rental, in conformity with the
decline in the cost of wages and liv-
ing.
But one thing impresses us and
that is the general submission on
the part of labor to meet the cuts
good naturedly. This speaks well of
the country and its people. It is much
better to settle these questions in
this way than to resort to strikes.
During the war proprietors as
rule realized there was an increased
cost of living and advanced wages
many of them voluntarily, and now
since profits are being cut to the
bone and the depression has reduced
the volume Of business it is exceed
ingly gratifying to note the same
spirit on the part OF labor.

WOULD ESTABLISH SCHOOL
FOR HOTEL employees

| Chicago, July 9.-The character OF
the American hotel business may be
affected in marked degree by action
taken at the annual meeting of the
American Hotel Association opening
here Monday, according to Secretary
J. x. Blatchford. He reported these
proposals coming up:
Recommendation of the Federal
Board for Vocational Education that
the hotels set aside $150,000 to- es-
tablish training schools for employees.
Reorganization of the national ho-
tel association to put in on a dele
gate basis.
Suggestion that travel bureau be
established in the department of the
interior to- encourage travel in this
country.
Endorsement of fright name' leg
isIation making false registration
punishable by law.
Secretary Blatchford said that one
of the leading universities of the
country was considering a course in
hotel management.
''Since the passing Of the hotel
bar with prohibition" he added, "the
public regards the hotel business in
a better light, and fathers and moth
ers are more inclined to view 1t as a
field for their sons and daughters.
The iced for the development OF ho-
tel executives and employees is urg-
ent. think If the recommendations
Of the vocational board are acted up
on the hotels will attract some of the
best talent to be had
Other allied conventions to be held
here next week include those of the
Hotel Mems Mutual Benefit Associa-
ton, the Great Lakes Hotel Associa-
ton, the American Caterers Asso-
citation, the International Stewards
Association, the American Associa-
ton of Dining Car Superintendents
and the Greeters Of America.

that these purposes mentioned above

Gates:
(a) The petitioners contract with
another subsidiary, the Western Elec-

tb) The petitioners contract with
the American Telephone and Tele-
graph company under which four and
one-half percent of gross receipts are
paid to the parent company.
(c) The contract by which the
Southern Bell furnishes the use of
it's exchange facilities and all operat-
ing expense for handling all long
distance business for which it gets
twelve and one-half cents for doing
the work and the parent company
gets 81 1-2 cents for owning the long

(4) That the Southern Bells state
ment showing an earning OF only
$50 percent is based on financial
statements showing that more than
a fair average was spent in 1920 for
maintenance and depreciation.

PROCEEDINGS.

Judge William Bond of Elizabeth
City is here today on his way tc
Raleigh where he holds court on
Monday, at the request of counsel tc
consider the dissolution, or the con-
tinuance of an injunction to prevent
the collection of notes given by pur-
chasers of stock in the Fisheries Pro-
ducts Company of Wilmington, the
purchasers being residents of Wash
ington county. The allegation is made
that the stock was sold fradulently.
not only on fraudulent representation
but that more stock was sold than
authorized by the insurance and
state departments. A letter was read
from Mr.. Stacey Wade of the fnsur-
ance department which stated that
the company was not allowed to is
sue under it's charter more than a
million dollars of preferred z per
cent stock, and the allegation was
made that it issued more than that.
On the other hand the company
and the bankers who bought the
notes which were given by the pur-
chasers of the stock contend that the
stock was regularly issued, that the
transactions were in open meeting.
and that the sale of stock was bona
nde, and that such an argument cam
not be set up to deprive an inno-
cent purchaser from recovering his
money from the maker of the note.
Judge Bond has not vet rendered
his decision.
The attorneys in the case are Mr..

COMMISSION SAYS TELEPHONE
USERS BET BAD SERVICE
(By Max Abernethy)

Raleigh, June 9.-The North Car
olina Corporation Commission has
filed in Federal Court its answer to
the complaint of the Southern Bell
Telephone Company which is seeking
to restrain the Commission from
putting into effect it's order fixing
telephone rates throughout the State.
Considerable emphasis is placed by
the Commission on the lack of service
the telephone users have been sub
mitting to and points out that the
Southern Bell company has from
time to time, failed in the perform
ance of it's reasonable obligations to
the public in this State by delaying
to make necessary capital expendi-
lures to provide the service which 1t
was, and is now, able to furnish, and
under obligations to furnish until
such time as it hoped to get the ap-
proval of the corporation commission
of the unreasonable and exorbitant
schedule OF rates set out in it's ex-
hibit "a. The Commissoin's az
swer makes plain that the telephone
company has delayed the perform
ance of its obligations 'as a, public
service company and the obligations
it assumed in the franchise which it
sought and now holds to serve the
public in the industry for which 1t
holds so complete a monopoly until
he number of unsatisfied demands for
telephone installations may be as
large as stated in its complaint"
The Commission holds that it will
require a large amount of money to |
provide the increased facilities that |
'it should have been putting its SER
vice from time to time but not so |
arge net sum for the immediate /
'uture as stated in the complaint"
rhe Commission observes that the Il
telephone company has the ability
o secure whatever sums may be nee
,ssary to provide for the growth Of
is business, and whatever sum are
low or may be hereafter necessary to
invest in carrying out its franchise
will proportionately in,
rease the income of the petitioner,
nd under the rate already authoriz-
d by this respondent will yield lib
raj return upon it's present invest
nent and upon any additional invest :,
1ent necessary to the growth OF its
usiness."
s'If this should result in the COM
laint being subjected to penalties
or it's failure to perform its fran
hise obligations to the public it will
e due solely to the negligence of the
and its failure. to per-
orm its closer franchise obligations
, the public the Commission's or
er reads.
Answering the complaint that the
outhern Bell has never been able to
arm fair return on its North Car
lima invp;tments, the Corporation J
ommission points out:
I'd This, suit is really not a suit
the Southern Bell but suit of the
merican Telegraph and Telephone
ompany.
CD That the Southern Bell is a {
ere instrumentality of the parent
'mpany which was set up to per- c
'rm all its biddings, being 'sfed or
ed as the exigencies of conditions 1
'quire, but always with the intent
Id purpose that its financial show-I
