II Months Period
Rapid Strides Are Made
by Shipbi1ilders and leu.
tonic Fleet; Many Craft
Bought Back From British

Within the last year Germany has
almost doubled her merchant feet and
is forging ahead rapidly on the sea, ac
cordlng to information brought back
from Europe by Noble Foster Hoggson.
president of Hoggson Brothers, the
New York and Chicago builders. 1t is
estimated that the German feet now
aggregates close to 100000 tons. as
compared with 412 900 tons wear ago.
Mr.. Hoggson, who recently has spent
some time in Germany, says that coun
try is striving to build up her mer-
chant marine to compete with Great
Britain and the United States for
world trade. She is still far behind
both countries, as the British fleet an
proximates 1S,O0O0 COO gross tens and
that of the United States only little
less.
During June, July and August rapid
strides were made in the RECONSTRUCT
ton of the German merchant fleet. In
.ne months of June and July alone the
foiiowlng vessels were launched:
Arabai, Halle, Frauenfels. Gutenfels.
Prlnklpo, Bianco, totaling 29,8OO tons.
Several more were launched in
August. the largest of which was .be
Wuertemberg, 12,OOo-ton steamer,
built for the Hamburg american Com
pany at Vegesach, the biggest ship
yards near Bremen. The Vegesach
works have also completed the Frauen-
fels, 10,000ton steamer for the
Hansa Line; while the German wharf
at kiel has launched the tank steam
ers, oberschlesien, 5000 tons, and the
Ostpreussen, both for Hugo SHINES.
In addition to the construction of
ships Germany has added greatly to
her merchant fleet by purchases From
Great Britain she obtained a total Of
$4,000 tons in July.
The fact that the government has de-
clded not to levy the increased tax or
English bunker coal at Hamburg has
been received with general satisfaction
in shipping circles, as it was feared that
the measure might be detrimental to
the development of foreign trade. Mr..
uoggson declares.

A LITTLE DISAGREEMENT
ABOUT PLATFORM

A ripple of excitement was caused
on the streets Thursday afternoon
about o'clock by a personal en-
counter between Sheriff Cannon G.
Blease and H. H. Evans, in which MIR.
Evans struck Mr.. Blease in the face
and Mr.. Blease attempted to draw
his pistol when bystanders interfer-
red and stopped the trouble.
The difficulty arose over some
thing Mr.. Evans said in announcing
his candidacy for the house of rep
resentatives in the newspapers. In
his platform" published in the town
papers Thursday afternoon, he sald'
among other things, "if the voters
want the fearful expense OF the
sheriff's office, don't vote for me. y
The two men met on the street short
lv after the papers came out, and IN
the course of discussing the language
above quoted, the sheriff used the
short and ugly word "lie," with a
handle to it, and it was answered by
Mr.. Evans with blow. Their friends
hope the affair will not go any FUR
ther.

CITY SCHOOLS TO OPEN.
The Newberry City Schools Begin
Monday Morning, September
22, 1921.

The session 1921-1922 of the New
berry city schools will begin on Mon
day morning, September IL, at 9
Io'clock. 1t is important that every
student be on hard the first day.
Parents are reminded of the state
law which requires that child must
have been successfully vaccinated be-
fore attending school. Please attend
to this matter at once so that there
will be no loss of time from school.
If it has been over five years since a
child was vaccinated, the state board
of health says that he should be vac
cinated again. We are asked to take
every precaution this year so as to
ward off the predicted small poX cpl
demic,
Conditioned students, and students
from without the district who are en-
tering the school for the first time,
are requested to confer with the su-
perintendent at his office in the high
school on Wednesday morning, Sep
tember s, from g. to 12 o'clock.
Owing to the large enrolment 1t
will be necessary to transfer some
children from one school to another
These transfers are made where the
least inconvenience is caused. In
previous sessions where transfers had
to be made, the parents of the chill
dren transferred have shown tine
spirit of cooperation with the super
intendent and this has made it easier
for the children concerned. Occa-
sionally we hear of a parent who
wants to suggest to the superlnten'
dent what child should be transfer
red instead of his child, but that type
of parent is scarcely found in the
Newberry city schools.

Superintendent.

WEEKLY COTTON LETTER.

(Bv Savannah Cotton Factorage Co..
The cotton crop continues to de-
teriorate, not only in Georgia and
the Carolinas but also in Oklahoma,
Texas and other states: If this de-
terioration continues, the final yield
will fall far short of the governments
estimate of 8,2O3,O00 bales. 1t is
reported that a private bureaus es-
innate of the crop condition at this
time is 81 per cent. of normal, indi-
eating a yield of 100000 bales, or
nearly 100000 bales less than the
governments first estimate.
But the course of the market will
probably be governed by three fac
tors: Whether or not the federal
reserve banks will assist farmers to
market their cotton over a period OF
seveal months instead of being COM
PEELED to sell as fast as picked; wheth-
er or not the demand will be sutti-
cient to force prices up, or whether
or not the weather and boil weevll
conditions continue so unfavorable
that the yield will be even smaller
than present conditions indicate.
It is unlikely that cotton grading
from strict low bidding to ordinary
will decline much, if any, from the
present level. On the other hand
there is a good chance for these
grades to advance, because differ,
ences in price between the lower
grades are still too wide. If the 1921
crop is picked as fast as it opens
there will be few low grades, and
this will result in narrowing OF
differences, which means that the
owners of such cotton will profit ma
terially.
japan was one of the first coun'
tries to experience financial crisis
following the world war. 1t is inter
esting to know that this country has
recently bought heavily of cotton IN
the South, and every one hopes that
other Far East and European coun'
tries will soon be able to enter oul
markets. If they are, no doubt
American mills will follow suit, ano
we will be another step nearer normal
conditions.
