The Semi-weekly leader. (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1905-1941, 1921-07-20

Hattiesburg, Miss Union carpen-
ters employed on work being done in
public buildings in this city by C. O.
Eure, contractor, walked out this
morning following an ultimatum is
sued to Mr.. Eure last night. The
difficulty is claimed by the union
men to arise from the refusal of Mr..
Eure to discharge nonunion men em-
ployed by him on one of the school
buildings under construction. Mr..
Eure denies the charge, declaring
that the nonunion men are not car
penters. but are common laborers
working under nonunion foremen.

FIRST SHIPMENT OF
MANUFACTURED MILK
Dixie Creamery Sets Record
Saving Thousands to Dali
rymen Now.

The Dixie Creamery Co., Of this
city, justly enjoys the distinction Of
being the first Mississippi concern to
make solid carload shipment Of
condensed milk and pure pasteurized
cream. The car went by express to
the Anheuser-B Busch Co., of New Or
leans, La, Monday morning and was
the first output of large lot of ex-
pensive machinery installed month
ago by the Dixie people, of which
concern ]. B. and e. A. Nalty are
the head. Contracts are now in hand
which will insure carload shipment
each week hereafter.
1t is now that the farmers and
dairymen of this section are be-
ing benefited thousand of
dollars weekly by the foresight and
enterprise of this concern. While
milk. shipments of every point into
New Orleans are being curtailed,
the Dixie Creamery is still taking
every pint of milk it can get and
manufacturing it into condensed
milk and cream, while dairy centers
not SO fortunate as to have a plant
of the large capacity of the Dixie
are turning back the supply on the
dairymen with large consequent
loss to them at time when the
milk supply is the most plentiful, and
cheapest to produce.
The express car containing the
shipment attracted good deal Of
attention here and all along the line
as it went into New Orleans, bear
ing as it did on both sides the words
Shipped by the Dixie Creamery Co.,
Brookhaven, Miss, to Anheuser-
Busch Co., New Orleans, La. First

pasteurized cream from Mississippi" "

FARMERS, RATIO IMPORTANT

The report of the committee on
agriculture of the Conference on In
EMPLOYMENT concludes with these
words: "Yhe chief of all factors to
hasten readjustment will be an earn
est purpose throughout the whole
Nation to take only what is fair and
to assist others to win what they are
Justly entitled to have"
These are words that deserve to go
as far as mere words may go and in
this connection emphasize the recon-
mendations of the committee that:
all prices and wages should be adj
justed so that a normal, reasonable
ratio may be established between
farmers and other folks, that some
way should be found for reducing
freight rates. that the costs added
between the producer and the con-
sumner are excessive, that better cred-
it facilities should be established for
the farmer. that exports of agri-
cultural products should be stimulat-
ed, that tariff legislation should
maintain just economic balance be-
tween agriculture and other indus
ries. that history is repeating itself
in this period of depression following
the war, in that prosperity must
come, as before, from the revival Of
agriculture.
When the farmers throughout the
country feel that they are unable
to make their usual purchases of
supplies and are not disposed to
take long risks on future crops
business must inevitably feel it seri-
ously. Business is feeling it.

Should Be Divided
Bangor Commercially


Once again the teachers of Maine
have met in convention. this time in
the city of Portland. The sessions
were doubtless profitable and they
were largely attended, in the vicinity
of 5000 teachers being present. We
have not changed our view that there
should be two conventions instead OF
one, one in the eastern and one in
the western parts of the state. 1t &
practically obligatory for the teaclI-
crs to attend, OF least it is expected
that they attend and for the eastern
teachers of Aroostook, Washington,
Hancock and other eastern counties
to travel across the state to Portland,
incur several days board bills is IN
expensive proposition and one th9u
cats deeply into the not large salaries
paid to teachers in this state.
The conventions are now so large
that they can be handled only IN
Portland and Bangor. whereas If they
were half so large other cities might
serve as hosts. But the main ques-
ton is of the expense and we can see
no good reason why the conventions
should not be divided and large pro-
portion of the transportation costs
saved. We believe that this is O step
that will ultimately be taken and the
sooner it is taken the better it will be
for the purses of the teachers.

"Peace must become the creed of
the world; disarmament must become
the code of the nations."-Messa9e of
Peace
ORDEAL OF FAITH

Ambassa Harvey, after con-
siderable interval of silence, speaking
to the British delegates to the arms
conference at a dinner given to them
by the Pilgrims Society, said that the
approaching conference was to be
IAN ordeal not of battle but of faith
He described it as "a great test, not
of sincerity of peoples, but of the
capacity of existing governments to
satisfy the universal longing for
peace, prosperity and happiness"
In other words will the respective
governments be able to give express
sion to the wishes of the governed.
to find ways suitable for putting
those wishes into effect? There
cannot possibly be any question re-
speeding the general wish for peace,
for relief from the burdens, the ever
increasing and appalling load of eX-
pensCs for ornaments. But have the
various peoples sufficient faith in the
peoples of other nationalities, suf-
fcient self control and power to up
hold their governments in making
concessions, sacrifices perhaps, and
disrcgarding the national vaity? In
doubtcdly they are sincere. but can
they impress on the minds Of their
representatives that the instinct Of q
government to drive a sharp trade
with its neighbor must be held in
allegiance and then sustain that gov
eminent if it succeeds in doing it?
Back of all their statesmen and
publicists stand in wistful hope the
entire peoples of our common race"
Mr.. Harvey told the Enelishmen and
he but told the truth, although the
usefulness may yield somewhat to
grimness if it shall appear the con-
ference is not acting in n right tenn
per. He said America does not fear
war" This is true in the sense he
used it. Our land may fairly be con-
sidered unconquerable and yet there
is not a home in all Of it that
would not fear war Unconqucrcd
we might be, but tortured and
ravagcd we would be by war of any
magnitude in which we should be
engaged. No one at all convcrsant
with the horrors devised by science
for use in war could possibly think
otherwise. So, while the United
States is in a specially advantageous
position to Urge limitation of arna-
mcnts to an effective degree she can
not ignore the need of defense, and
as our ambassador pointed out we
have shown an earnest of our wishes
in reducing, prior to the conference,
our naval construction to forty per
cent of the normal.

AUGUSTA, TOO, PLEASE

The well displayed announcement
in the Lewiston journal of Oct. &c
that symphony orchestra was to be
formed in Auburn and Lewiston and
that hitherto Bangor was the only
Maine city having such an organiza-
ton doubtless proved entertaining to
the Auburn Lewiston people and
tickled their local pride, but didn't
accord with the fucts. Augusta, if
YOU please, has for some time had a
symphony orchestra comprising about
sixty members. 1t is an organization
highly creditablc to- the musical cir
cles in this part of the state. 1t was
gathered together by Mr.. Ernest II.
Hill and all last season some rehears-
ais were given without charge to the
public and were highly appreciated.
The dictatorship of Mr. Hill has been
very successful.
All success to Auburn and Lewis
tons effort to get in line with Bangor
and Augusta in this matter of a
symphony orchestra: there is room
for all and those whose efforts are
making all this possible deserve
tribute.

GRATIFYING RESULTS

When there came to State Assessor
Stctson five years ago, the idea of
holding annual conventions of the as
SCISSORS of all the various Maine
towns at the State capital it is pos
sible that he did not forcsee all the
advantages to be gained thereby, all
the valuable information which it
would be possible to impart as might
be done in no other way.
Those, who in their official capacity
are brought into intimate contact
with the pocket nerve all over Maine,
are not only performing an import
ant but a rather delicate duty. No
officials included in our scheme of
government have greater need of in
formation respecting the ways in
which taxes are expended than have
they. They are finding most graft
flying spirit of cooperation on the
part of the several State departments
and officials. The State exhibit which
has been mado for this occasion is a
splendid demonstration OF this.

marshal, their sisters, their cousins
and their aunts, gave him a tumultu-
Gus welcome at Kansas City. No
need to ask F'och what most warmed
the cookies of his heart in America.

him. lie has since his return given
the lie to that repeatedly in the stand
he has taken for respect to law and
authority at home. The splendid
scene at the Legion convention is a
final touch that should not be over
looked. 1t was characteristic not
only of the Legion but of the country,
with a few wild huZzas of the South
western variety thrown in for good
measure.
