AMERICAN LEGION NOTES.

&. (. {. =, s, (. (. &. (. (: (: {. q q 8,
We aye glad to announce that the
membership drive with our local post
was a success Twenty-three new
members were ;AdeG 10 our roll, and
dues from nineteen delinquent mem
bers were collected. The se>retary's s
books show that we Still aave 4 few
old members WHO have uol paid their
dues for 1921 We wish 10 remind
these delinquent members again that
their names have been dropped from
the roll at department headquarters
and at national headquarters, and that
they may be re-instated upon pay
ment Of dues to the local post.
The statement has been made that
the local post of the American Legion
is spokesman for all of the veterans
in this community. This fact is ver
fled by communications received at
this office with regard to the eN-ser-
vice men almost daily. The follow
ing is an extract from letter JUS
received from G. H. Mahon, Jr.. de-
partment commander:
"The American Legion will place
flowers on all American graves over
seas on Memorial day. South Caro-
lima IS expected &c do her part. We
must not and shall not fail. If each
post in this department will give a
sum equal to ten cents for each mem
ber, South Carolina's quota can be
paid promptly and we will have kept
faith with those fellows who went
West over there"
You viii note that the appeal is
made to members of the American
Legion. Of course Post No. "a will
do it's part. This post had the priv
ilege of contributing to a similar
fund last year. Can the veterans
who have not lined up with the AM
erican Legion say as much?
At meeting Of the post last Mon
day evening committee was ap-
pointed to confer with a representa-
tive from the Wayne P. Sewell COM
pany of Atlanta. Ga, with regard to
putting on local talent show in
Newoerry. The committee met with
the representative and has signed
contract with the company calling for
the staging of an amateur production,
:.The Microbe of Love-" on June "a.
Those who saw ''The Flower Shop
last fall will look forward, no doubt,
to the presentation OF ''The Microbe
of Love" with pleasant anticipation.
The last number on our lyceum
course, The Hawaiian Players and
Singers, will appear at the opera
house Tuesday evening, May 3rd.
These are native Hawaiians, and have
been drawing full houses everywhere
they have appeared. A pleasant ev-
ening is in store for all who attend.
John B. Settler, Commander.

PLANNING
 INTERVENTION
President Wilson Has Conf dence in Work of Envoy to Aid in Cuban Difficulty Does Not Protest CrOwder.

Washington, Jan. 4.-The Cuban minister to the United States, Dr. Carlos Manuel de Cespedes, was in- formed today by Acting Secretary of State Davis that this government was not contemplating military in- tervention in Cuba. The minister, who called upon MT. Davis, was said to have entered no protest from his government against the sending of Major General Enoch Crowder to Cuba to confer with President Meno- cal relative to the geenral situation in the island republic. After his call, however, he expressed some slight objection to the action of the American government, declaring that neither his attitude nor that of his governmen as set forth in a recent statement by him had been altered In his statement, he had asserted there were no grounds for the super vision of elections.
 Secretary. Davis discussed with President Cuban situation and the mission of General Crowder just before the minister called at the department The secretary told Dr.. Cespedes that there was little he could add to the presidents state ment relative to the work General Crowder is expected to accomplish in Cuba, adding that he had conf dence in the ability of the Cuban au- tbprities and General Crowder to work out a satisfactory solution of the country's present political and financial difficulties.
 Minister Cespedes made it plain that his main purpose in calling on Secretary Davis was to obtain more information regarding the sending of an American to Cuba on the mission such as the nature of General Crow der's, but it is understood that in his discussion of the matter with Secre- tary Davis, he did not conceal ap- prehension that the action would be an act preliminary to intervention. He was assured that neither inter vention nor the supervision of cleo tions was contemplated, but it was made plain to him that the United States considered the economic, po- litical and financial situations had reached the point where the United States regarded the whole situation as one warranting the friendly offer of assistance.

BLOCKADE ON
 FORDNEY TARIFF
Chief Trouble Arises When Finance Body Decides on Holding Hearings-Its Out
 come Now Doubtful.

Washington, Jan. Stumbling blocks which the Fordney emergency tariff bill has encountered since reach sing the senate continued today to rise up in it's pathway. The chief I of these appeared in the decision of sthe senate finance committee in a stormy executive session to hold hear sings on the measure. 1 Advocates of the tariff measure sbelieved, and opponents hoped the scommittee's action would mean the death of the bill. Senator Shoot, Republican, Utah, was understood to have told the committee the move would cause the bill either to be Killed in conference or "flibustered Ito death on the senate floor" The Sprojected hearings will begin Thurs EGay and continue until next Tuesday and will be followed also by decision .of the committee today, by hearings on the soldier compensation bill,
 The finance committee meeting to- day was the first over which Senator Penrose, it's chairman, had presided in more than fifteen months. An at tempt by Senator Simons, Democrat North Carolina, to postpone action indefinitely on the tariff bill devel- oped the first clash. The motion lost, however, by two Democrats Senator Nugent, of Idaho, and Jones of New Mexico, joining the Republi- .cans.
 The question of holding open hearings, committee members re- ported, brought on second vote and exchanges in which "sharp words were used. The motion to open the hearings was made by Senator Gerry Democrat, Rhode Island, and it was giventhe support of all the Demo cratic members in addition to Chair man Penrose, who was joined by an other Republican, Calder, of New York.
 Senator Penrose, after the meeting issued statement in which he said that both the soldier bonus and tariff measures "undoubtdely would be re ported to the senate" He declined however, to offer a prediction as to what action would be taken in the senate, but opponents of the tariff bill were confident it would never be- come a law.
