REDUCING THE H. G. l..
IN ITALY WITH CLUBS

ROME, July 26-Tihe FaSclstl
or extreme Nationalist. have now
taken a hand in reducing the high
cost of living, bringing into their
solution of it the militant methods
which characterized the recent
election campaign.
Their appeals to the storekeep-
ers throughout Italy have not met
with flat refusal for the store
keepers have advertised reductions
ranging from ten to 25 percent.
The reductions are especially no.
ticeable in the dry goods stores.
The effect has been to fill these
stores with shoppers. Shoe stores,
clothing stores, cafes, restaurants,
hardware stores have increased
their sales immensely in eonse-
quence.
The vendors of the prime nee
essities however are having their
difficulties. They ask the peasants
to reduce the prices to them but
the peasants refuse. AS result
the peasants have gone on a strike
and refuse. to bring the produce
into the cities and suffer the re
auctions imposed by the Fascisti'i
demands.
A fruitivendor was found selling
his wares without any reduction
the other day. He was aceosted By
several Fascist who demanded
that the price be reduced. He re-
monstrated that he was doing the
selling not they. The remark led
to a quarrel. The Fascist dubbed
the vendor severely. He was taken
to the hospital where he died
shortly after his arrival.
In other cities, Fascist are con-
trolling the markets. They are
armed with policemen's clubs and
inquire the prices. If the prices
have not been reduced they force
the vendor to sell for less.

German Competition
to Be ReckOned With

The London representative IL
the Guaranty Trust Company's In
ternational Trade Service made a
tour of observation in Germany in
June. He reports German crops as
far advanced and the agricultural
outlook as very promising, but the
number of cattle and horses has
been greatly reduced. At the Krupp
| Works at Essen 100000 men are
now employed, as compared with
$4,000 in July 1914, and the OUT
put of this great plant is extrem =
ly varied. At the Rheims Metal Fa-
brick at Dusseldorf the monthly
prouction of locomotives is 80 and
of freight cars 500, and the COM
pany has more men on its payroll
than before the war. The register
ed unemployed in Germany unmDer
$4,000 and to this should be add
ed several hundred thousand of the
middle class who do not accept
the governmental unemployment
allowance of 10 to 20 mark S a
day.
The cost of living in Germany
has increased about Ia times since
1914, while workmen's wages have
increased about ten times, but
German labor also has state pro-
lection in house rent and bread.
The burden of the war is falling
most heavily on the middle classes
and those with fixed incomes.
There has been much discussion
in the industrial centers of Ger
many in regard to the necessity of
reducing wages. Now that wal 2
reductions have taken place in
other countries the German work
ers have agreed that such rcduc-
tons are inevitable in Germany.
There is, however, a general de-
mand that along with these reluc-
tons there must come a reduction
in the cost of living, the workers
pointing out that the prices OF PRO
ducts made by companies which
have recently declared heavy divi-
dends have not so far been re-
duced.
That German competition in for
eign markets is a factor seriously
to be reckoned with in the future
is disclosed very clearly in recent
reports from all purchasing mar

LET ME BE KING

Time was when each Of US could
drift Iszily along on dreams Of what
we would do were we king. In those
days .se also dwelf longingly ON the
time when we would gain the lofts
station OF locomotive engineer or street
car conductor Those times were
when the indoors seemed yeritable
prison and the outdoors the ideal Of
living. And as we rode our stics-
horse-what a fiery charger be was
gaily through these days, we dreamed
OF the things we would do when we
were the king OF our chosen land.
Now, those days have passed by and
we face the sad reality that being king
is not such prize as we think. Kings
seem unpopular. Once their word
was law, but now It is almost OF no
weight. The few monarchs the world
still tolerates are 50 hcdged about by
law making bodies of regular folks
that we feel that our childhood EN-
bitions were misplaced. Being king
is nothing less than adopting load II
worry and nedless tsouble. Truly
we must Danish the thought.
But, wait, let us delay a while and
try to absorb some Of the beauties OF
n certain island paradise as related
for our benefit hsthe daily press 1t
seems that ON this island there are
"lafty hills covered with dense vegeta.
tion silvery waterfalls, fields Of wis
terra, heliotrope, violets, gcraniums,
roses, pines, palms, Expresses, firs,
dragon trees, wonderful harbors, glogl.
Ously colOred fruits, quaint churches,
beautiful hotels and villas" Also
"the flowers smile, the heaven is blue,
the air mild"
And this is to he the dwelling place
of former Emp0r Karl, favorite son,
more favored now than ever in being
banished from his own land-exllel
from n country that will be bettered
by his absence He, too, will probab.
ly profit by his enforced departure.
Such things make US return to our
childhood visions. II might not be so
bad to be n king after ALL

isn't so easy now TO finance that little

necessary funds, and the prompt de-
mands for payment from shopkeepers

The process Of defiation is well along
and IL is time now TO consider whether
or not IL would be good thing to
20 bac to the old free and easy basis
Of practically unlimited credit TO hon

chant i'm Deming has cursed the old
system Of long time credits that Ens
caused them loss and worry since
Deming came into existence. II has
been possible up TO now for an entire
stranger TO blow into town and live
in regal style for months without pay
ing bill-and goodness knows how
many dead-beats performed the little
stunt AS far as possible the losses
were loaded on 10 the customers who
paid their bills; practically the shop
keeper and his customers divided .ae
losses between them--Deming lost the
money.
Then there were the long-term cred

cut interest. The customers who paid
cash paid this interest in increased
prices, or at any rate, the customer
who made a habit Of deferred payment
got the best of IT, The credit system
operated TO increase prices more than
the retailers and their customers prob
ably realized. Credits demand a
much larger and more expensive ne
counting department than cash busi-
ness, Of course, much more capital
to do the same amount Of business.
Credits were the cause of endless dis,
putes and pickering; 1t makes bust.

Whether or not the merchants like

away. II cans as much saving 10
those who expect to have TO pay their
bills as it does to the merchant who
must make a legitimate profit or go
out OF business. 1t isn't easy TO go
from credit TO cash, but II is notice

practice IL even under the disadvant-
age Of unrestricted credits, when they
know that they are being taxed to

is to be continued buyers and merch-
ants alike ought to stop "hollering''
about high prices for conslstencys

Several of the leading firms cf the
city have already gone on a cash basis.
Those seeking credit will therefore be
forced to obtain II from those sin do

exciting experience Tuesday night
Fraternity brothers bet him $500 that
he was afraid to go from the fraternity
house to the students restaurant, a
distance of about five blocks, at MD
night, clad only in slippers and a night
shirt. The temperature stood at ABOUT
Is degrees above zero, and north
west wind was blowing.
Hale was game, and made the trip
without molestation. The return tn:
furnished the excitement. His fra
ternity brothers had tipped all IN"
other chapters on fraternity row to be
on the lookout for him upon his re-
turn. And they were. He was deluGec
with ice water as he passed one house
Another crowd threw buckets OF roc
kalsomine on him, and still another
turned the hose on him.
Hale reached home all right, rubb"C
down, and says he never felt better L
his life, nor made $500 any easier.

Official reports from the census de-

ed at the courthouse in this city Tues
day, which showed the population of
Dark county to be 42,911, loss of %
in the past 10 years. The report
shows that many inhabitants have
left the rural districts of the county,
while Greenville has made an increase
of 700 in the past 10 years. The de-
crease in the total population is not
sufficient to affect the salaries of the
county officers.

County Clerk G. B. Rayburn from w.

eral of the state G. A. R., which states
that at meeting held last Friday by

estimates place the number of people
