Attorney For Western Market AssocIa.
lions Explains Plan at Spartanburg.
Spartanburg, Jan. 15.- The assembly
room OF the Chamber Of. Commerce.
was filled with representative farmers
from Spartanburg county this morn
Ing to hear Aaron Sapiro, Of San Fran
cisco. the attorney for IA separate
farmers marketing associations, make
an address on the adyisability Of the
cotton farmer organizing a co-opera-
tive commodity association.
Mr.. Sapiro pointed out in a forceful
way the plan Flowed by the California
farmer in organizing. There was a
time, he said when the Western farmer
was ut the mercy Of the speculator,
and often sold his commodity at loss.
There was no definite plan OF financ-
Ing or marketing. For years there was
experimental work but out OF that has
been evolved the only successful plan.
The speaker did not fail to picture the
condition Of the cotton farmer as he
appears to The Westerner. He pointed
to the home without any convenienccs,
the wife and children working in the
Held, and the crop being sold for half
what 1t takes 10 live on. He said the
average farmer realized about $3.50
when cotton sells at 20 cents and sta
tistics Of the government show that 1t
takes $1,000 for tho average family to
live on. He said that IL the farmer
cannot get profit out Of his cotton he
should quit. but" he said, the error
is not with cotton, 1t Is with you" He
gave the plan OF organization which is,
briefly. to organize the commodity, not
the county or state. The idea Is to get
large percentage Of the producers OF
commodity In the organization to
get them in for number OF years and
then to fnd market for what he pro-
duces.

Wards. Find Cheerful Home

Wards. Find Cheerful Home.
Anderson. Jan. 15.--,A 20 mile au-
tomobils trip from Greeny!lle today
completed the long trip from Boil
shevik ridden Russia to their new
nome here Of the seven Russian chill
dren brought to this country by Rear
Admiral Newton A. AcCully, former
United States high commissioner at
Sebastopol.
Mrs. Carrie y. MeCally. the ad-
mirars mother. and a delegation of
friends met the little strangers in
Greenville today and 8avo them a
Luncheon. On arrival In Anderson, tho
aamirais home. friends and relatives
turned out by tho score 10 welcome
him and his wards. In tho welcoming
party wore some 20 Anderson children.
many Of them cousins OF tho admiral
and tho Russian visitors fraternized
with them at once.
The handicap Of language and the
rather curious look with which the
visitors had greeted the older per
sons were forgotten as the children
mingled. At the McCully home a
basket full Of Christmas horns was
distributed and soon the little for
efgners were blowing as Justify as
army trumpeters ard disporting them
selves In gay capers all over the house
with the American children. They
seemed as thoroughly at home as IL
! they had been born here. When the
Anderson children left the McCully
home the little Russians bade them
goodbye with quaint courtesy.
Admiral McCully. who Is SO years OF
age, had all the appearance of a proud
father as he presented his wards to old
friends and relatives here and happi-
ly remarked that none Of them had
been III since he took them In his care
he was reluctant to go into details Of
his future plans but indicated that
Anderson will be the permanent home
or the children although after a month
or so here some Of them will be taken
10 Washington, whore he maintains a
residence also.
Il shall have to take my mothers
wishes into consideration in making
plans Admiral McCully said, "and
she has not yet had an opportunity
10 say what she thinks about the mat
ter"
Many friends OF the McCully fam
lily here are said to have offered to
adopt one Of the youngsters but 1t is
understood the admiral has steadfast-
~ refused to part with any OF them,
telling friends he Is much in love with
them.
There will be round OF entertain
ment for the children and also for the
admiral. The first public welcome for
the young Russians will be tomorrow
morning at the First Baptist Sunday
School, where a special program will
be rendered. 1t Is planned for the
young Russians to sing religious songs
Of their own land >s part OF the SER
vice.
The admiral will hc honor guest at
4 banquet next Thursday evening and
is expected to return 10 WASHINGTON
tho latter part Of next week. The
children will be made at home here
with his mother until final plans are
perfected for them.

Washington. June 22.-Two Of the
leading fliers of the army air service,
Capt. Howard T. Douglas and Lieut.
Marrl J. Plumb. were drowned in
Chesapeake bay Wednesday after col
lision of their planes in the course of
a bombing raid directed at the hulk
of the old battleship San Marcos, off
Tangier island.
Reports received by the war depart
ment from Langley field, Va. said the
accident was one of the most peculiar
on record. Lieut.. Plumb, flying a fast
single seat plane, was dropping bombs,
and Capt. Douglas. in a similar ma
chine, was observing the raid from
above. Plumb's plane had just drop
ped bomb and was climbing upward.
as is the custom after releasing the
charge, when it struck Capt Douglas
machine. cutting off its tail.
Both ships fell into the bay and dis
appeared together with their pilots.
whose bodies had not been recovered
Wednesday night, although search had
been made by number of army and
navy craft ordered to the scene after
the accident.
Langley field officials reported that
soon after the planes fell, another of
the bombing planes dropped l., /, bomb
containing 300 pounds of INT and
that it fell near where the machines
went down. It was evident. it was
said, that the pilot of this machine, one
of many participating in the attack
on the San Marcos, had not seen the
planes fall. The terrific explosion of
this bomb. aviation officers said, prob
ably would make more difficult the
recovery of the bodies of the officers
or the planes.
Capt Douglas. whose home was in
Covina, Calf. was one Of the best
known Of army fliers.
Lieut. Plumb. whose home was in
Fond du Lac. Wis. was recognized, of
ficers here said as one Of the army's
most expert fliers.
