system for the automobiles and
their occupants.
This resembles any theatre or
hotel checking system-so far. But,
in this case, the chauffeur cannot

he is directed q certain way to a
traffic officer who takes his check

AT the end OF the performance,
as the check numbers flash over

officers release the automobiles

MARK ETING ASSOCIATION
PROGRAM FEATURE

Columbia, April lS.-Thc forma-
ton of a cooperative marketing as
sociation for cotton in South Carolina
will be the principal matter to come |
before the South Carolina Division Of |
the American Cotton association at |
its scmi-annual meeting, which will |
be held i'm Columbia at Craven Hall |
on Wednesday, May 4, at noon. In
making this announcement, r. G. |
Hamer, president said that the asso
citation recognizes the absolute neccs
sity of this state taking action along
this line at once as the formation of
cooperative marketing associations
is proceeding in every other cotton
growing state.
An effort will be made to have
every township in the State rcprcsent-
cd at the meeting on May 4, Prcsi-
dent Hamer said. The president of
each county divis i has been asked
to name SO delc2 ntes and to see that
! each township in his county is rep
/ resented in the personnel Of the dele
cation.
Preliminary steps looking to the
formation Of the marketing associa-
tion in this State are already being
taken. Five regional meetings have
already been held and the sixth and
last will be held tomorrow at Rock
Hill Last week meetings were held
at Florence, Sumter, Blackville and
Greenwood. Yesterday meeting
row one will be held at Rock Hill.
These meetings were called by Dr..
w. w. Long, director Of the extension
forces of Clemson College, co-opcrat-
ing with the South Carolina Division
Of the American Cotton Association.
At each of the regional meetings
from members of a central committee
to draw up the plans for the state
wide cooperative marketing asS0cia-
tiOn have been selected. This com
mittec of twcnty-four will hold a
meeting in Columbia some time soon
and will have the plans for the asso-
citation drawn up and ready for sub
mission to the meeting Of the South
Carolina Division of the American
Cotton Association on May 4.
These regional meetings have beer
attended by select groups of farmers
from the counties participating there.
N and at each Of them strong rcso-
cooperative marketing association
has been passed, following explana
tione Of the benefits Of such an or,
! yAniZation.
81 am convinced" said President
I Hamcr, "that the time has come 70,
/ The formation of such an association
, in South Carolina. 1t is a step tha
- we are obliged to take as practically
, every other state in the belt has or
. ganized or is organizing. The senti
, mcnt at the regional meetings con
vinccs me that our people are read,
for this movement"

of cotton states which produce only
low grade cotton. 1t was their con
tention that the Conner amendment
would have eliminated market for
their product.
Senator Dial declares that his
amendment would not only elm
mate a market, but would probably
create market. Under his scheme,
any purchaser from cotton ex-
change could demand one-half of his
purchase in any two Of the ten legal
grades, and the cotton exchange
could deliver the remaining half i'm
any two of the ten legal grades.
Both sides to the transaction"
said Senator Dial, "havc an even
break. Under the law as it is to-
day, cotton exchange has the power
to deliver a quantity of purchased
cotton in either one of the ten
grades it desires. The man who buys
face Of things, that is not fair. 1t
is not right. Such a scheme would
not hold good if applied to any az
ticlcs or goods purchased. If The
producer of potatoes was legally au-
| thorizcd to dispose of his potatoes
without consulting the purchaser
very naturally the purchaser would
receive only low grade potatoes. And
if the purchaser had the entire op-
ton, the producer of course could
sell only his very excellent potatoes
"The same natural laws apply to
cotton transactions. Therefore
neither the seller nor the buyer
should have the sole right of option
1t is that evil which I am attempting
to eradicate. l am not trying to put
the cotton exchanges out Of bust
ness. ! am not trying to reduce the
ten grades now tcndcrablc under Law
, on cotton exchanges. | am simply
trying to secure Il fair deal for tn,
man who buys cotton from eX
changes.

BOARb Of EXAMINERS
WORK is FINISHED

The State Board of Examiners for
Teachers is glad to announce that the
task Ct converting all outstanding
teachers certificates into South Caro-
lima STATE licenses is about finished.
This vVFk was made necessary by the
1920 SE4 of the Legislature creating
the Board of Examiners for Teachers.
The members of this Board are:
Prof. HEB. Dominick, former superin-
tendeppSof the Greer Schools; Miss
Elizabeth Mclean, of Sumter City
Schools; and Joseph II. Shealy, Reg
istrar u the Teachers Bureau.
The Board began the active duties
of the office June 21st an dafter plans
were formulated, certificates forms
designed and procured, the work of
issuing, Certificates began September
9th.
The task of certifcating over nine
thousand teachers has occupied the
entire time Of all the members of the
Board since the first of September,
and for five months Approximately
eleven hours of work per day were
necessary for converting certificates
and correcting examination papers.
The Board endeavorcd to dispatch
the duties of the office with as little
delay 'as possible and wishes to cX-
press it's appreciation to the teachers,
county superintendents, and school
folk in general for the patience eX-
ercised and support given in this
work. Through the medium of the
the State Board of Examiners, pro-
fitable and needed service can be rem
dercd the State. The teaching pro
fession is one Of the greatest which
should claim the attention of our
people, and the teachers should be
classified so that the deserving may
be encouraged to better service and
those who are poorly prepared assist
ed to better preparation. The State
has provided assistance for the needy
schools and the people have responded
nobly 10 the demand for better salar-
les for teachers, and now the public
has right to expect better service
The first grade certificate has beer
heretofore an indefinite quantity as
to teachers fitness to teach schoo
and it is the purpose Of this Board tC
issue certificates such as will carry
with them some idea of the teach
er's preparation for serving the pub
lie and'to encourage professional ad
vancement.
The compilation of the records il
the office reveals some very couraginG
facts. The $500 certificates whicl
have been issued since September Gil
consist of the following classes
