the trash wagon. Every lady is re-
quested to do her part in this small
matter. Please don't depend on some
one else but do your part.

vised, much equipment will have to be

they defeated the railroad clerks of
Spartanburg in a one-sided game
here Saturday by the score of Is to
four.
A hit coupled with sacrifice, a
hit batter, and two errors gave the
visitors three runs in the first, but
the locals came in and made nine runs
in their half on six hits, four errors,
and two sacrifices, four men getting
to bat twice in the inning. Mehan
gave up only two hits, in the first and
second, both these being singles by
Vandivor, the clerks shortstop.
Discarding the first inning, it was

READY TO HANDLE
COTTON CROP

All of the cotton cooperative asso-
Citations organized this year will be
ready to handle the 1922 crop, accord
ing to d. G. Hill, Jr., of Dallas, Texas
office expert of the American Cotton
Growers exchange, who is in Co.
lumbia for a few days advising with
officials of the South Carolina Cotton
Growers Cooperative association.
Five states have organized this
year-South Carolina, Georgia, North
Carolina, Arkansas and Alabama
Arkansas and North Carolina are
ready to receive cotton now. South
Carolina, Georgia and Alabama will
be ready by August |.
Texas, Oklahoma, Arizona and Mis-
sissippi associations functioned last
year and are ready, of course, to re-
ceive the 1922 crop, Mr.. Hill said.
The results attained in those states
last year were very satisfactory to
the members, he said, notwithstand-
ing the fact that these associations
had to pave the way and naturally
made some mistakes at first that the
associations beginning business this
year will not make.
A total of approximately 2,500,000
bales has been signed up in the nine
states according to Mr. Hill, the sign
up by states being as follows: South
Carolina, 100000 bales; Oklahoma,
425,G00 bales; Texas, $4,000 bales;
Arkansas, 215,OOO bales; North Car
olina, 100000 bales; Georgia, 26s,OO0
bales; Alabama, 125,OO0 bales, and
Arizona, $4,000 bales. Considerable
more cotton will be signed up in all
of the states before September 1, ac-
cording to Mr.. Hill.
Arrangements for financing the
1922 crop have been made by all of
the states, it was said. All of the
states have selected their sales man
ayers and other officers.
The executive committee of the
South Carolina association will meet
Tuesday and the board of directors
will meet Thursday of this week, it
was stated yesterday. Carl Williams
president of the American Cotton
Growers exchange, will meet with
the board on Thursday.
Work on the alterations which are
being made on the old Masonic tenn
pie building, which is to be the per-
maneffs headquarters OF the associa.
tion, is going rapidly forward.

HARDING WILL
:. STAY ON BOARD
BY Hugh w. Roberts.

Washington, July 16.-Newspapcr
correspondents received the tip today
from sources regarded as close to the
president that w. P. G. Harding of
Birmingham will be reappointed gov
ernor of the federal reserve board.
According to this tip, the name OF
Governor Harding will be sent to ths
senate contemporaneously with the
nominee for the vacancy recently
created by an act of congress and re-
served for "dirt" farmer. The
term Of Governor Harding will ex.
pire August 9. Already Andrew W.
Mellon, secretary of the treasury, has
indorsed him for reappointment.
If this tip is correct, it presages
battle royal in the senate. The
president has been importuned by
bankers and business men through
cut the United States to give Cover
nor Harding another term. BY GER
tain senators and heads of farmers
organizations, the president has been
urged to name another. From the
farmers themselves, no word ha;
reach the president.
The senate fight will be Tong and OF
doubtful issue, it is indicated In the
first place, it is possible that an in.
vestigation will be ordered into the
administration of the governor, this
despite the fact that Investigations
have already been made. This would
cause great delay, and the vote of the
investigating body will depend on the
nature of that body. An investigation
by the agriculture committee might
have one result; by the finance com.
mittee, another.
The vote in the senate likewise will
be doubtful. Senators from agricul.
tural states, however, will not stand
unanimously against Harding. 1t i:
anticipated that the following sena
tors from cotton growing states viii
support him: Glass and Swanson ot
Virginia, Simmons of North Carolina
Dial of South Carolina, Shields oi
Tennessee, Williams and Harrison OF
Mississippi, Ransdell of Louisiana
Owen of Oklahoma. and Underwood
of Alabama

without condition that a majority of
the employers would join in its sup

NO DEVELOPMENT IN RAILWAY STRIKE;
LEADERS OF BOTH SIDES AWAIT EVENTS

Detroit, July II (By the Associated
Press).-The members of brotherhood
OF maintenance way employees wac
engaged in the unauthorized strike
will not be expelled from the union
"for the moment, but union organlz-
ers will be sent to interview strikers
to attempt to persuade them to re-
main at work pending the final de-
cision as to the national strike, Pres
ident Cradle of union said today.
Washington, July 16. - Develop
ments in the railroad strike in the
capital today were confined to the re-
ceipt Of reports by the three govern
ment departments which, by virtue of
their functions, are keeping most
closely in touch with the situation.
At the White House and elsewhere
in government circles, the outcome Of
the forthcoming meeting of officials
Of the maintenance of way employees
union at Detroit was being awaited as
holding potentialities of first import
ance. E. F. Cradle, president of that
organization, declined to indicate last
night when he left Washington for
Detroit after conference with Presi-
dent Harding what action he would
recommend to his associates but re-
iterated the hope that q conference
would be forced between the rail
road executives and the shopmen now
on strike which would bring a set
tlement.
A report on the recent disorders a.
Denison, Texas, was received at the
war department. today and was taken
at once to the White House. 1t was
understood to have been from the
army inspector ordered to the scene
by Secretary Weeks, following re-
quests for troops from the federal
receiver for the Missouri, Kansas g.
Texas railroad. The effect of the re-
port was not made public, and no
statement on it or any other phase of
the strike was forthcoming from the
White House during the day.
Next to the meeting of the main
tenance Of way union interest here
centered chiefly upon the effect of
the strike upon the transportation of
the mails. Postmaster General Work
was at his Office practically all day to
receive reports from postal inspec-
tors. .:ss:,4 44tr-.
Few reports of interference with
the mails were received, however, pos
tai inspectors indicating that the only
serious trouble reported had occur
red on the Wabash system, in Mis-
souri,. Troops have been requested
by the officials of that road, it was
said, because Of disturbances at vari-
Gus pbints, especially at Hannibal,
Mo.
Mobilization of motor truck units
has moved forward with much sue
cess, the department announced
Postmaster General Work expressed
the opinion, however, that the use Of
motor vehicles would not be resorttd
to except in extreme emergency and
that from reports at hand he was con-
fident the railroads would be able to
transport the mails with but little de-
lay.
"There is no occasion for the public
to feel disturbed over the prompt de-
livery of the mails" he said.
