pottery, clothing manufacturing and coal
mining industries, and in typographical
and electrical workers unions were pre-
scented by Mr.. Lauck. He traced the de-
velopment of labor organizations from a
local to a national scale and quoted labor
historians as stating that no change in
industrial technique had ever had So
simultaneous an effect upon all indus
tries as had the sudden extensions Of
markets due to the railroad consolida-
lions of the fifties.
National agreements in other indus
tries, he said, tended to show that in
dustrial peace was attended by national
agreement; that establishment of uni
formity was socially Important; that
unions do observe their contracts; that
national agreements must cover working
conditions; that trade agreements are
not inconsistent with the open shop and
that such trade agreements tended to
humanize the industrial situation

PRESIDENT And
CABINET HOLD
A CONFERENCE
Continued from Page ono)

Such a possibility, the railroad men ia
sisted. could only be viewed as pub
lie calamity.
II Is understood that although few
definite remedial programs have been
suggested in these conferences, most
OF those who have presented the car
riers' side of the problem have adj
vlsed against any general increase in
freight rates. A further material rate
increase in the present condition of
the nations industry Mr.. Harding has
been told might result in such a cur
tailment OF traffic as to reduce earn
ings rather than increase them.
Employees Protoas Wage Reduction.
on their side, the railroad employees
have vigorously protested against
wage reductions as an economy ex-
pedient, declaring that living costs re-
quire that wage schedules remain I'M
changed. All along the possibility of
n general railroad strike has made
both railroad executives and govern
ment agencies think twice whenever
a wage cut has been suggested.
Added to this. and contributing ma
terially to the present unsettled condi-
ton OF the industry, has been the
confusion and inconvenience of re-
storing the roads from a war time to a
peace time basis and of unscrambling
the various properties after long
period of operation as one system un-
der government control.
II remains a question whether the
roads will ask congress for direct fl
nancfaI relief In addition TO that pro-
vlded under the transportation act to
compensate them for detoriation of
their property while 1t was in govern
ment hands. Such proposal, 1t is be-
lieved, would becertain to develop bit
ser opposition in some quarters, add
ing another complication to a situation
that Ii Is expected to develop some
very knotty problems before the adj
ministration and congress have found
a solution.

Utopia.

From Hartford l drove out to
Utopia. This is one teacher school
taught this year by Miss Bess Her
bert and she is doing excellent work.
The attendance is good and while
there are more children enrolled this
year than for some years in the recent
past there are not near so many CHI
dren in the district as there were
some years ago. There is good talk
now among the people out this side
of building new AMI modern house
and locating it different 50 that at
least part of Deadfall may come in
and then the district will be able at
least to have two teachers and posi-
bly, three. The two schools are going
to have Joint picnic at the close and
at that time we will talk over matters
Of consolidation and other things that
are for the good OF the school.

able extent. Of course nothing IS
planted yet, but the preparation Of
the land looks very much like 1t was
being prepared for cotton. 1t is all
right not to reduce the acreage if we
first make an arrangement by which
we are growing all we need to feed
man and beast on the farm. When
a farmer grows what he needs for
his farm on the farm, his meat ard
his corn and his hay and his other
feed stuffs, then about all he can DO
and what he should do, is to
raise all the cotton he can. We can
not compete with the grain growing
sections in raising corn for market
nor can we compete with the other
sections where the soil and climate
are adapted to particular crops, and
we should not undertake to do SO.
This is a cotton growing section ard
we should produce it, but we can and
we should in this particular section
grow our own food.

The highway commission is doing
some good work on the roads in all
sections of the county and with the
permanent roads we are having bull:
it will not be near so long as it has
been before we will have a lot OF
good roads in Newberry county. The
roads to Whitmire and to Chappells
will be opened for travel during the
present year. And that sounds good
especially to US. We have been writ
ing and talking about these roads for
many gears and we are grateful to
feel that we will have the opportunl-
ty of seeing the roads built.
But the highway commission is not
only building these roads and the or2
from the Lexington line to the Lauf-
ems line but the cross roads IN the
county are receiving attention. II
the money would hold out to build
the Pomaria road or make top soil
road out of it then we would have the
county pretty we'll covered with top
soil roads. That is, we would have
a road in each direction and not so Tar
from any ones home.
Good roads will help the rural
school conditions and make life IN the
country more desirable and the PROB
lem before this generation is the
building of the rural communities.

''This brought from Governor Har-
ding the assertion that there was no
actual overproduction but decrease
in the buying power of the European
states into which American commodi-
ties formerly went. The job of the
cotton exporter and his financial
backer, Mr.. Harding added, was to
recreate the buying power by supply
ing some credit on some economic
lines. The situation in Europe as
viewed by the reserve board, he said,

one way to aid in this stabilization
was by assisting those countries IN

This quotation is from the report
of the meeting Of the bankers and

other matters pertaining to business,
