CANADA HAS IT'S
UNEMPLOYMENT PROBLEM,

Ottawa, Jan. 25.-The Dominion
Government approved tonight sweep
ing measures for the relief of unem-
ployment throughout Canada. The
plan, to be financed through issuance
of Federal warrants, makes special
provision for Canadian and British
war veterans and will be in force un-
til March 81, the end of the fiscal
year.
The new legislation binds the Fed
eral Government to reimburse muni-
cipal authorities to the extent of one
half of their outlay for unemploy-
ment relief in the case of ex-soldiers,
provincial and municipal authorities
to assume the other half.
In the case of public work under
taken to provide employment, it is
stipulated that the municipality
must pay the normal cost plus one
sixth of the extra cost, the Federal
Government paying three-sixths of
the extra cost and the Provincial Gov
ernment, tw0-sixths. This grant is
conditional upon the province agree
ing to bear its share of the burden
and also upon approval of cost esti-
mates for work receiving the appro-

holders. So the $s50,OOO,0OO for the

The Treasury thinks business has
been taxed too much for it's own

as an addition to existing taxes
would only be passed on to the con-

HOW LONG SHOULD
! GIRLS SKIRTS BE

Greensboro News)
How long should the skirt of a
Greensboro high school girl be, or
how short?
How thin should her shirtwaist
be?
Should she go often to movies
unchaperoned? Should she ride in
automobiles unchaperoned? Should
she go often to semi-public dances?
The executive board of the Lind
say street Parent-Teacher associa-
tion struggled over these problems
yesterday morning, argued them
back and forth, talked about what
should be done, and at the end of
frank discussion adopted a series
ton, recommending to the associa-
tion that all parents make a deter
mined effort for a stricter standard
for the conduct of high school girls.
Skirts, waists, automobiles and
movies received the greater part
of the attention at the meeting and
a great deal was said on both sides
of the questions. One mother said
frankly that it was not possible to
establish stricter standard for
young girls until older girls main
tanned higher standards, the higher
applying to morals, not skirts.
Talk about saving the young
girls said another mother; "it's
the young boys who ought to be saw
ed from the girls. The boys are in
danger
The board finally adopted resolu-
tions recommending that the parents
agree. to the following: ST will aid
by influence and example,; in estab-
fishing for girls of junior school age
a simple, modest mode of dress, both
for school and social functions.
Il agree, even at the cost of per-
sona1 Inconvenience, to combat the
motion picture show, the ice cream
parlor and the semi-public dance, as
gathering places for young people, by
opening my home frequently, both
afternoons and evenings, for whole
some entertainment.
Eve recommend that attendance
upon the motion picture shows and
social functions be discontinued dur
ing. the school week; that parents
advocate early hours for beginning
and ending of nartias for vorn~ poC.1
pie and that the definite hours be
stated in all invitations
THAT, while recognizing the value
of occasional dances, 1 will endeavor
to discourage too frequent dancing
by substituting for it wholesome in
door and outdoor amusements.
II disapprove of the question of
permitting young people of high
school age to go to or return from
places of amusement without older
person in attendance, whether they
walk or go in automobiles.
Additional clauses cover not rid
ing in automobiles unchaperoned and
not Joining secret societies. It-is also
recommended that other parents
agree to the resolutions.

COTTON CAMPAIGN
VICTORY ASSURED
Growers Exchange Man Says
Prospects Are Good in
Mississippi.

Jackson, Miss, Nov. A sweep
ing victory by December 2S for the
Mississippi Farm Bureau Cotton As
sociation was predicted here today
by F. r. Shanks, field representative
of the American Cotton Growers
Exchange who has been. in the state
during the past week assisting in
the Cotton Association campaign. Mr..
Shanks has conducted campaigns in
FIVE of the cotton states and is of
the opinion that better progress has
been made during the first week than
was made in similar time in any
other state.
"No state in the cotton belt that
has set up cooperative marketing
association for cotton has had a
brighter beginning, he said. Dur
ing the first week of the campaign,
ten to fifteen thousand bales were
pledged for cooperative marketing
by more than one thousand farmers. "
Lauderdale county with quota OF
-17OO bales went over the top within
five days time. This is the record
for the South. according to Mr..
Shanks, and indicates keen interest
which the farmer and business men
Of the state are taking in this
great movement. He said eighty per
cent Of the farmers who were being
solicited were readily signing the
contracts. This progress is ascribed
to the fact that nine states now have
cooperative marketing associations
that are functioning in a profitable
way to the cotton growers and that
the delta association is one of the
best in the belt.
Mr.. Shanks said at the close of
this campaign, Mississippi would
likely have the highest percentages
of cotton under contract of any
state in the South. North Carolina
at this time holds the place with As
per cent of the cotton produced un-
der contract for cooperative mar
keting. Mississippi percentage should
be so to so per cent of the total
baleage produced.
If all the states in the South in
the cotton belt had the same per-
centage of cotton under cooperative
marketing contracts, the matter Of
orderly marketing Of the South's
most important commodity would be
solved and the South would be in a
position to get a just recompense for
its great money crop, it was said.
THE extension service in this
state," he further stated sis devoting
great deal of. time to the move
ment and will be one Of the biggest
factors in the success Of the cam
paign."

SLAYER OF CARMACK
DIES IN NASHVILLE
Leading Figure in Tennessee
Tragedy Was Buried
Monday.

Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 5. - Fu-
neral services for Colonel Duncan B.
Cooper, 79 years old, convicted slay-
er of former United States Senator
Edward Ward Carmack on the streets
of Nashville in 1908, were held Mon
day at his old home in Ashwood. near
Nashville. Colonel Cooper died Sun
day night following brief illness.
The tragic death of Carmack at
the hands of Colonel Cooper and his
son Robin, now dead, was the cul-
mination of one of the bitterest poll
tical fights in the history of the
state.
At the time .Carmack was editor
of the Nashville Tennessean, fol-
lowing his defeat in a Democratic
primary by Malcolm r. Patterson Of
Memphis for the gubernatorial nomi-
nation, The Tennessean was wag-
ing bitter editorial war on Cover
nor Patterson after his Inauguration
and the name of Colonel Cooper. as
one of the staunch friends and advis-
,ers of the governor, had often ap-
Apeared in the editorial column.
& Word was sent by mutual friend
that Cooper would not countenance
further public use of his name. On
the following day an editorial para
graph was written in which sarcas-
tic reference was made to Cooper.
On the following day as Carmack
was approaching his apartments he
was met by Duncan Cooper and his
son Robin. Shots were exchanged
Carmack falling with fatal wound
and Robin Cooper receiving bullet
in his chest, from which he recover
ed.
The trial. which followed was one
of the bitterest In the annals Of the
state, resulting in conviction OF
both Coopers, the elder getting a ver-
dict Of twenty years and his son
a lesser term. An appeal was taken
to the supreme court. The court af-
firmed the verdict in the case Of
Colonel Cooper and gave his son q
new trial. AS soon as the decision
of the court was announced Govern
or Patterson issued pardon for
Duncan Cooper. Robin Cooper's case
on retrial was dismissed for want Of
a prosecutor.
Robin Cooper met death under
mysterious circumstances several
years later. His body. the skull
crushed. was found in creek. beside
which was found his automobile. the
