WORKERS LEAVE POSTS
IN TEXTILE PLANTS
Unon Officials Say That Az Least
Nine Thousand Have Walked
Out in Cotton Nils

Charlotte, N. c., June 2.-State-
ments of union officials and repre-
sentatives of the mill owners to-
night agreed that at least 5000 tex
tile workers in more than 20 plants
at Charlotte, Concord and kannapo-
lis, N. c., and Rock Hill, S. c.,
walked out today as the beginning
of the general strike of Southern op-
eratives authorized in an order is
sued by officials of the United Tex
tile Workers of the World several
weeks ago.
No information was obtained
tonight from Thomas McMahon, vice
president Of the national organiza-
tion nor other union officials as to
any other plants to be included, fur
ther than reiteration Of former
statements that it is up to- the local
unions. Mr.. McMahon said several
days ago that once the strike started
it might "apread like wild, fire."
No disorder had been reported TO-
night from amy Of the affected mill
communities. Union officials report
ed later today to Commissioner Of
Public Safety Hunnicutt and Chief
of Police Orr that peaceful picket
ing" would begin at the Savona mill
here tomorrow morning and that
trouble might develop as consider
able feeling had been reported. On
ly's part Of the operatives walked
out Of that mill today, the others
remaining at work. Il. - ~.
The mills affected today include
three large chains of plants, the
'chadwiek+Hosbins;;' Charlotte, the
Highland Park Mills here and at
Rock Hill, and the Cannon mills at
Concord and Kannspolis. Several
other independent mils also were
closed down by the walkout. At Con-
cord ten mills closed down, at Kan
napolis, two, at Rock Hill, one and
and at Charlotte eight besides the
Savona plant. All the mills are spin
ming and weaving plants, no knitting
plants being affected.
Mr.. McMahon said tonight in re-
ply to an inquiry that all the local
unions involved, through their repre-
sentatives several weeks ago waived
their rights to weekly benefits from
funds Of the national organizations.
The attitude of the mill executives
and owners as expressed tonight by
David Clark, editor of the Southern
Textile Bulletin, recognized spokes-
man for the employers, is that Of
indifference. !,
Mr.. Clark declared that, while the
mill owners did not welcome a
strike, they were perfectly willing
to have their plants stand idle, be-
cause practically none Of them were
operating at a profit and numbers
Of them were actually running at a
loss and on short orders.

GALL STRIPPED FOR DINNER
Buffers Remark That Might Have
Set Father Of Family to Small
Job of Thinking.

Edward Box, the talented ex-editor
and reformer, said at business
mems luncheon in Philadelphia
Il claim that business men are
partly to blame for the ridiculous
fashion from Paris which their daugh-
tiers wear. The business man should
not permit his innocent child to APP
pear in shocking creations designed
in the Rue de la Paix for the demi-
mondaine trade.
Mr. Box paused and smiled.
"A Merton business man." he went
on, entertained a house party the
other week. AS he came from his
dressing room one evening during the
party he overheard his butler saying
in fierce whisper down the dumb
waiter:
"'For de lands sake. cook, hurry
up de soup. De ladies is all
stripped for dinner"

DANGER IN HUNTING "P0RKY"
Animal Said to Be a Past Master In
the Art Of Using Quilts to
Advantage.

"On the farm which / was manag-
ing in British East Africa, there were
great numbers of porcupines." says a
recently returned traveller. "They used
to have their homes in the rocks UNI
der the escarpment, and at night would
come down to the cultivated plots and
do a great deal of damage. They
were particularly fond of potatoes and
would root out whole rows of them,
moving from plant to plant and I'M
dermining each separate one. AS soon
as we noticed they had begun their
depredations on any particular plot
my brother and I would organize a
porcupine hunt.
Zone had to be pretty quick in ones
movements, for porcupints have a
hasty way of charging backward and
transfxing with their quilts any flesh,
human or canine, that happens to be
In the way. / have known very bad
wounds inflicted like this, the quilts
going through mans leg as easily as
a sharp bodkin."

DETECTIVES OF THE LEGION
National Commander GaIbraith Out
lines What Is Planned to Be Ac-
compIished During the Year.

The detectives Of the American Lee
gion for the year 1921 were told by
#. w. Galbraith, Jr., national COM
mander, In recent speech in Gin
cinnati, at dinner attended by Lee
gionnaires and business men.
Mr.. Galbraith cited the disabled
mans problems as the Legion's para
mount concern and termed the finding
of satisfactory solution as lone Job
that is going to be done"
"Woe unto the man." he added, "or
the bureau or bureau chief who will
fully stands in the way OF paying the
honorable obligation the government
owes these men. Whoever he is he
will have to get out"
He warned against the activities Of
the I. w. w. and Kindred organiza-
lions and outlined the position Of the
Legion as follows:
1.-THE time has come when line
must be drawn between loyal and dis
loyal Americans. We do not claim to
have a. monopoly on patriotism but
a little cfsarer to our hearts and Is a
little more intense. We intend to
crush this thing, If 1t ever raises its
head, that we already have fought and
iissxad."
Mr.. Galbraith also spoke Of the de-
sire of the Legion to unite with the
veterans associations of the allies, in
order to promote international amity.
People accuse US Of being over
enthusiastic, he said. "They declare
that we believe ourselves to be the
only patriots. God knows we are not
If we were 1t would be sorry day for
the nation. We know we have hun
dred million associates and we ask
them to help us because without their
good will and assistance we can ac-
complish nothing"

HONOR FOR CANADA
Wins Championships at Interna-
tional Live Stock Show.
Splendid Exhibits, Both OF Animals
and Grain, Won Admiration OF
Judges and Spectators.

One of the most interesting sights
Ut the International Live Stock show
at Chicago was the evening parades
Of horses and cattle. As the Cana
dian section of these parades came in
to view, and as It passed around the
ring, there was continued applause.
There were two or three reasons for
this, the principal one being that In
this section there were the wonderful
Clydesdales, the Belgians and the Per-
cherons that had carried off champion
ships and first prizes. The province
Of Saskatchewan had splendid dis
play Of Clydesdales and showed In
number Of classes, and in every class
they got In the money. A remarkable
and noted winning was that Of the
University of Saskatchewan, showing
LADY Bruce female Clydesdale, In
class Of "a and taking second. In
competition there were entries from
such famous studs as Conyngham Bros.
of Wilkesbarre, p. l.. James of Easton,
Mass, and George Chiett of the same
state. She was beaten by an imported
mare, but was later made champion
American-bred mare and reserve
grand champion, an honor never before
conferred upon anything but an i'm
ported animal.
The following are some of the good
things that Canada won at the Inter-
national, In a fair fight and no favors.
Grand championship for Clydesdale
stations; championship for American
bred Clydesdale mares; reserve senior
and reserve grand championships for
Clydesdale mares; grand champion
ship for Southdown sheep; sweepstakes
grand championship for wheat for the
continent of America; championship
for Durum wheat for America.
Another of the reasons for the APP
plause given the Canadian sections of
the parade was the heartiness with
which the American spirit was imbued
that impelled 1t to greet with the full
est appreciation the efforts of the win
ner, and the hundreds Of Canadians In
the immense audience of the amphi-
theater appreciated it.
The purpose that Canada had in
making exhibits from their farms,
whether 1t was of live stock-and they
had it there In all grains,
grasses or roots, was to demonstrate
that the war had not created devasta-
ton, that the country was alive with
interest in the matter of production
and that 1t had ability to produce in C
manner that would bring 1t champion
ships, and what better place than the
International, where 1t would be placed
before thousands, many Of whom, with
the enlightenment thus gained and
with desire to better their condition,
would be made to realize that In the
neighboring country to the north there
was an opportunity that II might be
of advantage to them to embrace. -
