The suggestion of President Hard
ing looking to disarmament con-
ference at Washington was expected
by officials to meet ready response
from the capitals of the powers con-
cerned. The probable attitude Of the
powers towards such a proposal, it
was said, was sounded in advance
through the American embassies and
legations abroad and the impression
was gained that replies to formal in
vitations to such a conference would
prove favorable. Tending to confirm
this belief, in the opinion of officials
was the statement of Premier Lloyd
George in \the House of Commons,
welcoming the initiative of President
Harding in the matter.
Encountering a bear with three
cubs, Walter Poster of Old Fort, near
Asheville, N. c., relied upon his pock-
ct knife to save him and during the
melee suffered a badly mangled arm,
while later the big bear was found
dead about 200 yards from the scene
of the encounter. P. H. Mashbern,
who was near Mr.. Poster when the
bear attacked him, killed two of the
cubs with shotgun but was unable
to reach the dense underbrush where
Mr.. Poster wrestled with the big one
until after the "scrap." Mashbern and
Poster were cossing the Blue Ridge
mountains near Old Fort in an effort
to round up their cattle when the
bears were encountered.
Adopting as its new slogan, "a

declaration adopted by the more 16,-
600 delegates from all parts of the

tions as shall induce or compel all
peopls to learn war no more but
brotherhood and be concerned for the

DEATH OF MRS. MARY E. cAsoN

Mrs. Mary E. Cason died at her
home in Chesterfield early last Fri
day morning after an illness of sew
eral weeks. The many friends of Mrs.
Cason were. shocked to hear Friday
morning that the end had come. Ev-
eryone knew that she had been in
failing health for some time but she
was thought to be somewhat improv-
ed just prior to the passing.
At the time of her death she was
in the 18th year of her age. All her
days had been lived in Chesterfield
and her life was blessing to the en-
tire community. She united with the
Methodist church in early years and
her life has been like unto a beauti-
full song, filled with the real spirit of
the Master. She was a quiet unassum-
ing Christian. Her children can call
her blessed"
She is survived by four sons and
two daughters, Mr.. e. D. Cason, of
Lakeland, Fla; Mr.. Minis Cason, of
Poplar Bluff, Mo-; Mr.. Ned Cason,
OF Topeka, Kan; and Mr.. G. r. Cason,
of Texas.
There are two daughters, Mrs. T.
w. Eddins, and Miss Edith, both of
Chesterfield.
The funeral services were conduct
ed at the Chesterfield Cemetery Sat-
urday morning by Rev. L. E. Peeler,
her pastor, assisted by Revs. B. S.
Fnderburg and ]. H. Hildreth of the
Baptist Church.
The floral offerings were beautiful
and the large number attending her
funeral attested the warm place she
held in the heart of her people.
Indeed, it may be said of her in
the language of st. Paul-"She hath
fought a good fight-.She hath lept
the faith" *++

COTTON OUTLOOK IS
GROWING BRIGHTER

Columbia, July 1.-THE reduction
Of 28.4 per cent in the cotton acre.
age this year as shown by the govern.
ment report issued on Friday. shows
the temper of the cotton farmer in
the opinion of R. C. Hamer, president
OF the South Carolina Division of the
American Cotton Association who
said yesterday that if the farmers did
not receive fair profit for their crop
this year there would be a much more
dractic cut in the crop next year.
"Our farmers have served notice
on the world that they are tired of
growing cotton at profit to every
body but themselves" said Mr.. Ham
er. "They have cut their crop this
year over 100000 bales and if this
does not bring them fair price they
are going to make a much more
drastic cut next year. 1t is my be-
lief that unless this years crop brings
fair profit this fall that next year
not one-half of a crop will be raised.
I'm the past the threat of the Sou
thern farmer to reduce his acreage
was not taken seriously and when the
American Cotton Association launch
ed its campaign this year for a reduc-
ton along the same line, practically
all of which had resulted in failure.
This year, however, systematic
campaign was conducted and the
government report says that there
has been an acreage reduction of
28.4 per cent. Some private reports
place the reduction at over 80 per
cent.
1T would really seem that the cot
ton farmers are profiting by their
bitter experiences of last year. Not
only are they decreasing their pro-
duction of cotton but they are plan
ming to market that which they do
grow along the most scientific lines.
A cooperative marketing associa-
ton is being formed in each state of
the belt. There will be q working
agreement between them all so that
in the future there will be no rush
OF cotton to the market in the fall
but instead the supply will be regulat-
ed to meet the demand. Instead of
the farmer asking the buyer each fall
what he will give him for his cotton,
the buyer will be asking the farmer,
represented by the cooperative mar
keting exchange, what he will let him
have cotton for"

TO EXPORT COTTON

New York, July 1.-THE war fl.

policy for financing of export ship,

definite contracts of sale. Following
conferences with cotton men and
bankers in Washington, New Or
leans, Atlanta and New York, he
said the corporation will now con-
slider expectations of cotton on any
one of the following three plans:
l. For prompt shipment against
deferred payment.
2. For future shipments within a
reasonable time against either
prompt or deferred payments after
arrival in foreign countries.

Cooperative association of Memphis,
which pledged 100000 bales of long
staple cotton as security, he said,
and agreed to export within one
year sufficient to repay the full loan
out of the proceeds of exports. The
cotton will be held in American
warehouses until the time is fav-
orable for export. The corporation,
he said, stands ready to assist other
organizations as we'll as cotton ex-
porters and banking institutions, in
the same way, provided the ad-
vances can be made upon a sound
business basis and the corporation
may be safely assured the advances
will be repaid from exports within
one year.
