SHRINE DAY TO
BE BIG EVENT
AT TAMPA FAIR

Tampa. Jan. 7.-Headed by mag
nificant street parade and ceremonial
OF MOBILES and prospective mobiles OF
the Mystic Shrine, which will be
staged in Tampa, Thursday, Febru"
ary 10, under he auspices of Egypt
Temple, the South Florida Fair and
Gasparilla Carnival period, February
8 to II, will be replete with brilliant
pageants, ceremonials and social
events in the many American and Lat
in clubs of Tampa. Not less than five
thousand Shriners and Shrine candi~
dates are expected to visit Tampa on
Shrine Day." and these, accompan-
led by their wives and children, are
to be royalty entertained in the Cigar
Metropolis
The pirates of the Ye Mystic Krewe
of Gasparilla are also to make anoth-
er appearance, presenting a brilliant
ceremonial in the fair ground instead
OF parading through the streets of the
city, and to this will be added corn
and sun dances of Tampa's famous
organization of Seminole Indians"
and a water carnival to be staged on
Hillsborough river under the auspices
OF Rollins College, Winter Park. The
Tampa Rotary club, entertaining
newspaper editors of Florida and dis
tinguished winter visitors, also prom
ises to "outdo ITSELF in the entertain
ment line.
The republic of Mexico will be rep
resented by the largest exhibit ever
sent out by that rich country, and
the world-famous band accompanying
the exhibit will be added to the many
musical organizations employed dur
ing the fair and carnival.
Secretary of the Navy Josephus
Daniels has wired that the navy will
be represented by a larger number
OF war vessels than have visited the
port before, and three branches of
the army-aviation engineers and ar
tillery-will be represented also.
County and individual exhibits al
ready entered indicate that the most
successful state or sectional fair Of
southern history is in prospect.

(By Associated Press.l

Lexington, Ky, Jan. Tobacco
growers, bankers and warehousemen
are meeting here today in an effort to
find a solution of the situation in
central Kentucky created by the fail
ure of tobacco buyers to offer prices
satisfactory to the growers.
The growers had their meeting in
the morning and the bankers and
warehousemen in the afternoon.
The credit situation is deeply af-
fected by the dead lock of growers
and buyers. A run on the Bank of
Commerce, one of the strongest finan-
eial institutions of Lexington, was
started yesterday by reports that this
institution had loaned heavily on to-
bacco. 1t was stopped only by the
prompt action of the cashier. who,
getting wind of the proposed run,
asked the clearing house committee
to examine the books. The report that
the bank was perfectly solvent quiet
ed depositors who had grown uneasy
about their money.
Governor Edwin P. Morris has un-
der consideration the calling of a
number of conferences to discuss the
situation. He does not think the sit
uation will develop lawlessness, such
as that experienced when the night
riders terrorized the tobacco districts,
but he is eager to avoid the risk of
trouble. He thinks the situation will
gradually become normal.
Markets throughout the hurley to-
bacco district were closed yesterday
with the exception of a few of the
smaller ones.

CITRUS EXCHANGE ASKS FOR
EMERGENCY FREIGHT RATES TO AID in ,
TAKING CARE OF THE PRESENT CROP

TaTmpa, Jan. IA nationwide
movement to secure emergency freight
rates for the purpose of relieving the
congestion of farm products, was
started yesterday by the Florida Cit
rus Exchange.
Manager C. w. Stewart, Jr., tele-
graphed the secretary of the Nation
al Bureau of Farm Organizations in
Washington requesting that the move
ment be started at once among the
large number of organizations which
are members of the body to which the
Citrus Exchange also belongs. He
urged that congressman, senators and
members of the interstate commerce
commission be interviewed at once,
and the necessity of the proposed step
explained to them.
The traffic manager of the ex-
change, E. w. Dow, sent to railroad
officials throughout the country a tel
egraphic request for the immediate
restoration of pre-war rates in the
present crisis to permit the movement
of crops.
1t is stated that high freight rates
are responsible for most of the trou-

complaining. In this state alone, it
was announced, the cost of the rate
raise amounts to about five and a
half million dollars to citrus grow
ers.
Under pre-war rates the average
cost of shipments Of fruit to the north
was 63 cents a box. Under present
rates it is $40 a box. The increase
of refrigeration rates and war taxes
are additional elements of the ex-

FINED FOR BEING STEWED

The "Rev-Doc' l.. E. Green, a
typical Georgia strolling negro herb
doctor and Baptist preacher, was fined
$50 or ninety days in Jail, in the mu-
nicipal court this morning on a charge
of drunkenness. He was taken in
charge by Officer Virgins when he
alighted from a train.
The negro admitted that he had
taken a drink or two. He said his
home was in Georgia and that he
made medicine out Of roots and herbs,
and, according to his testimonial,
the remedy must have been good for
all what ails you.
When Judge Carver asked him what
his medicine was good for, he emu
merated a string of ailments about
two feet long. 1t was further revealed
by his testimony that he also preached
between times, and that his faith was
that Of the Missionary Baptist. In
his pockets the officer had found two
small bottles of clear liquid. They
were introduced to the court and the

pense which growers are compelled
to bear, and which has caused the
suspension of shipping in many parts
of the state.
Mr.. Dow said that the maintenance
of the present rates would result, not
only in immense losses to fruit grow
ers, but would break up many truck
ers. In some localities, he said, veg
etable crops are being plowed up be-
cause it does not pay to ship them.
The roads will lose also, as the large
freight exports from Florida will be
greatly curtailed if relief is not Sc
cured.
1t is hoped by the Citrus Exchange
that the railroads generally will see
the necessity of making the change,
that a temporary pre-war rate can be
secured.
