Discuss Tobacco Bill

The other debate of the night was
on the bill to provide for license
of $4,000 for all tobacco warehouses
in the state handling ungraded or
united tobacco. The tweed" came in
for considerable discussion from
numerous angles. A number of sena-
tors objected to the bill and number
supported the measure. After a
lengthy debate which had begun in
the morning the debate was continued
until this morning at the request of
Senator Black.
Proponents of the bill showed that
the tobacco growers themselves want
ed the measure passed, but several
senators did not agree with its pro-
visions and a close vote is likely II
the measure comes to vote IN its
original text. A number of amend
ments were offered last night and If
these are accepted exempting several
counties the fight will not likely be
hard. Senator Clifton amended the
bill so as to allow the board OF coun-
ty commissioners of Sumter to fix
the amount of license to be paid and
Senator Miller added the same pro-
viso as to Darlington as did Senator
Smith for Georgetown.
Speaking in behalf Of the bill were
Senators Bethea, Baker, Harrelson
and Ragsdale, and against the meas
ure Senators Clifton, Jeremiah Smith
I'd H. L. Smith, Jr. A vote Will
probably be reached today.
A large number of committee re-
port were made at the night session.
The judiciary committee returned
the workmen's compensation bill
without recommendations and the
bill of Senator Wells to prohibit the
manufacture and sale of frecrackers
known as 'tsons Of gun" and others
that have poisonous ingredients with
unfavorable report. This was done
due to a favorable report made on a
house bill of similar import, Sena-
tor Laney, chairman of the commit
tee explained.

even than of the handsome mission
buildings that constitute the Worries

woman and the elderly man-'who
looks like a retired merchant with
a vision that carries beyond the
rims Of his ledgers-they are proud
of their son, w Merrell Worries.
For father and mother believe
that it has been through Merrell's
energy, courage and steadfastness
that the spiritual charges" have
been brought to Christianity, and
that the mission buildings have be-
come things that men may touch
and see.
The Practical Dreamer.
"The Japanese call him the man
who dreams things and makes them
come true" the father explained
with a pride that wouldn't stay re-
pressed.
Merrell's wife Is Japanese wo-
man of excellent family. She is a
Christian, of course. and earnestly
collaborates with her husband in
his mission work.

happy marriages between Ameri-
cans and Japanese, provided tastes

Worries said. II do not believe
however, that an American girl
should marry Japanese unless he

and has lost the Oriental attitude
toward wife as being an inferior
being" ~
