Great World Affairs

Observations on my reading history,
Library, May Nineteenth, Seventeen
Hundred T~hirty-one.
That the great affairs of the world,
the wars, revolutions, ETC., are carried
on and affected by parties.
That the view of these parties is
their present general interest, or what
they take to be such.
That the different views of these
different parties occasions all confu-
sion
That while a party is carrying on a
general design, each man has his
particular private interest in view.
That as soon as a party has gained
its general point, each member be-
m intent upon his particular in
terests; which thwarting others,
breaks that party into divisions, and
occasions more confusion.
That few in public affairs act from
q mere view of the good of their
country, whatever they may pretend;
and, though their actings bring real
good, yet men primarily considered
that their own and their country's in
terest was united, and did not act
from a principle of benevolence.
That fewer still, in public affairs,
act with a view to the good of man.
kind.
There seems to me at present to be
great occasion for raising a United
Party for Virtue, by forming the Writ
uous and good men of all nations into
a regular body, which good and wise
men may probably be more unani-
nous in their obedience to- than COM
mon people are to common laws.
I at present think that whoever at
tempts this Alright, and is well quail
fed. can not fail of pleasing God, and
of meeting with success.
The most acceptable service of God
Is doing good to man.
Mankind are very old creatures:
One half censure what they practise;
the other half practise what they cen
sure; the rest always say and do a
they ought.

SALEM COUNTY POTATOES
Win Prizes At State Exhibits

Last week was State Agricultural
Week, in the Armory in Trenton,
when exhibits were made especially
of white potatoes. The potatoes from
Salem were the talk of those from all
parts of the State.
This South Jersey County had the
honor of walking away with all the
potato trophies worth while. She took
the Senator Walter E. Edge silver
loving cup, won in 1920 and 1921 by
Mercer County. This cup would have
been the permanent property of Mer-
Ger County had they won it this year.
Salem County also won the beautiful
silver cup offered by the banks of Sa-
lem and Cumberland Counties for the
best exhibit of second choppers.
In addition to these trophies various
individuals won ribbons and medals.
The State Association gave two gold
medals and seven silver medals. In
dividual exhibits also won eleven
ribbons.
The Salem County exhibit was the
talk of the week. 1t far outshown
any other county exhibit. Dozens of
inquiries we're answered regarding
the price of land in this county, the
roads, schools, shipping and marketing
facilities, etc. There were also many
inquiries for second crop seed,
Fred Gardiner, at the Potato Ban
quet, stated that this exhibit meant
at least $1,000 per day to Salem
County in advertising. Secretary
Agee and Walter Minch stated that
this under-estimated its value. Mr..
Minch claimed that $4,000 would not
cover the weeks advertising value.
Mr.. Temple, of Maryland, who judged
the fruit crop, said that in fifteen
years experience over the big potato
States of this Union he had never be-
fore seer such a wonderful exhibit of
cobblers.
A great deal of credit is due the
men v-ho grew the potatoes for this
was a poor year. Special credit is
also due Earl Moore, of Elmer, who
personally secured a number of both
first and second crop exhibits, and as
sisted in putting up the exhibit at
Trenton.
The following are the prizes won by
this county:
Walter E. Edge, potato cup, Salem

Riches and Business

Hints to those that would be rich
The use of money is all the advantage
there is in having money.
For six pounds a year you may nave
the use of one hundred pounds, II you
are a man of known prudence n
honesty.
He that spend S a great a day idly,
spends idly above six pounds a year,
which is the price of using one hun
bred pounds.
He that wastes idly a greats worth
of his time per day, one day with an
other, wastes the privilege of using
one hundred pounds each day. .
He that idly loses five shillings'
worth of time loses five shillings,
and might as p~rudently throw five
shillings into the river.
He that loses five shillings not only
loses that sum, but all the other adj
vantage that might be made by turn
ing it in dealing, which, by the time a
young man becomes old, amounts to
a comfortable bag of money.
Again, he that sells upon credit
asks a price for what he sells equiva-
lent to the principal and interest of his
money for the time he is likely to be
kept out of it; therefore, he that buys
upon credit pays interest for what he
buys, and he that pays ready money
might let that money out to use; so
that,
He that possesses anything he has
bought, pays interest for the use of 1t.
Consider, then, when you are tempt
ed to buy any unnecessary household
stuff or any superfuous thing, whether
you will be willing to pay interest,
and interest upon interest for it as
long as you live and more if it grows
worse by using.
Yet, in buying goods, tbs best to
pay ready money, because
He that sells upon credit expects
to lose five percent by bad debts;
therefore he charges upon all he sells
upon credit an advance that shall
make up that deficiency.
Those who pay for what they buy
upon credit pay their share of this
advance.
He that pays ready money escapes,
or may escape, that charge. Save
and have.-Benjamin Franklin.

used in the manufacture of optical
glass from traces OF iron.
Bcnzyl Benzoate was required for
weather-prooGug and ~hreproohng aero
plane wings in the war. 1t now finds
an interesting use in making synthetic
perfumes and synthetic drugs.
Dinitrophenol was supplied TO the
French High Commission as an ex-
plosive. In peace time we find it used
in making dyes, including the Ameri-
can new sulphur black. This dye is
interesting because it finds a wide ap-
plication in dyeing such articles as
hosiery and was one of the dyes that
Germany was confident America
could not make. 1t is gratifying to
learn from textile manufacturers that
American sulphur black is at least
twenty per cent better than any Ger
man sulphur black they have ever
used.
Chlorine was the first toxic gas
used by the Germans. In peace time
it is used in the publication of water,
the bleaching of paper and cloths and
in the manufacture of a great many
dyes, perfumes and antiseptics.
Napthalene was used in making our
wartime daylight signal rockets. Now
it is used in making such beautiful
dyes as indigo and orange,
From these few examples it will be
readily seer why it is so simple a
matter to convert a dye plant into a
wartime production plant and why so
many other industries are directly de-
pendent upon dyes.

NEEDSOF
|. SOUTHERN MILLS
President Of Cotton Manufacture
ers Says More Goods Must
Be Finished Here

WASHINGTON, May 26.-Presi-
dent L. d. Tyson, of Knoxville,
Tenn, told the American Cotton
Manufacturers association. conven-
ton here today that the textile in
dustry of the South could never at
tain prosperity of independence until
the majority of the mills decided to
diversity and finish their products
so that they could go direct to the
consumer with them.
1T is an economic crime" Presi-
dent Tyson said, "for the South to
continue to produce goods and send
them hundreds and even thousands
of miles elsewhere to be advanced
In manufacture, to be completed and
distributed and then returned to us
with all the increased cost, due to
double transportation charges, dou-
bic distributing cost and more"
What We need in the South" he
continued, sis more finished fabrics
ready for the trade; more bleacher-
les, more dying establishments and
more converters: more printing
plants and mercerizing puants; more
knit goods establishments, hosiery
mills and. the like"
The Southern textile industry, Mr..
Tyson declared, had developed from
100000 spindles in 1898 to 16,00O,-
600 in 1922, an advance of 800 per
cenC, as compared with so per cent
advance over the same period in New
England
Our selling methods must be re-
elsed," he said, either by selling di-
rect or by closer cooperation with
our selling agents, who should main
tain Southern and Western brances
and Southern and Western points of
distribution"
Under present conditions, he add
ed, Southern mills not only feel di-
rectly their own periods of depres-
alon but those of other sections. No
amount of individual or special eff
fort would avail to rise above such
periods, he continued, SO long as the
outlet for Southern goods was block
ed by the closing of the channels
OF trade through Northern and East
ern manufacturers, finishers and dis
tributors.
PRESIDENT Tyson urged as neces-
safy to a return to normal business
conditions the restoration of the buy
ing power of the farmers and the
railroads; the need for labor to "ac-
cept recession in wages in keeping
with reductions in other lines;" en-
aetment of suitable tariff; mainte-
nance of our merchant marine ana
the institution of economies in gov
ernmental affairs.

PAY UP WEEK
OFF TO GOOD
START MONDAY.
Noticeable Increase In Re-
mittances Reported BY
Merchants-See Spirit
Of Cooperation

According to the reports Of the
committee in charge. the Pay Up
week movement in Phoenix started
off very successfully yesterday, with
a noticeable increase Of remittances
above those ordinarily received at
this period OF the month.
In an interview with A. l.. Uhler
secretary of the Merchants and Man
ufacturers association, which is
sponsoring this movement, 1t devel-
oped that number Of local firms re-
ported very favorably on the days re-
ceipts. In many instances delinquent
debtors who could not meet their
bills called upon those TO whom they
were indebted and made satisfactory
arrangements for the subsequent set
tlement of their accounts.
One of the functions of the Pay Up
week idea is TO establish better
understanding between those who
grant credit and those who receive il,
and the educational propaganda dis
seminated in this campaign has
evoked favorable comment from the
various local credit men.
From the first days returns there is
every reason to believe Nhat the Pay
Up week movement this week will be
one of the most successful campaigns
of its kind ever conducted In PnoenlN'
The attitude of those who met their
bills today indicated that the true
spirit behind this movement is one
OF helpful cooperation and the OBJ
legations We're met in this spirit.
There are a number of interesting
tests being made in this campaign.
the results of which will be published
during the latter part Of the week,
which viii show the potential power
of small remittances that are kept in
active circulation for the purpose OF
paying bills during given period.
1t is anticipated from the results that
have been observed so far that the
