EY FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

That is to say that portion that has
not been completed from Chappells
to the river has been approved by the
federal government for federal aid
and while there may be details to
lock after it is expected to let the con-
tract in about three weeks. Mr.. G..
P. Boulware who has just returned
from Columbia says that is the infor-
nation that he got from the state
highway department. He also said
that man from this department
would be in Newberry this week and
would 90 up to Chappells ard look
over the situation and get the little
difference Strengthened cut and that
the advertisement for the letting Of
the contract would be published in the
next two weeks and they only adver-
tise for ten days.
So 1t seems that we are to see work
begin on the completion Of this road
within the month and that is fine be-
cause it will not take very long to
finish the JOB.

I ne State.

TAe State
Acceptance Of the portrait Of the
late John II. Fielder of OEangeburg
vas the only action in the senate last
night. TIE portrait was presented
by Ms. William V. lzlar Of Atlanta,
formerly Of Orange5u1g.
Senator Eu.Son Of Grangeburg
n:ade the presentation speech, giving
history Ct Mr.. Felder's life and SER
vice to the state Of South Carolina.
Nj. Fielder was born July 7, 1872,
in Orange parish, Senator Hutson
said, and vas graduated from Yale
university in 1904 with John c. Cal
houn. He was admitted to the bar in
1903 and practiced law in Orangeourg
for a number of years. His service
to the state and nation was more
than 40 years, Mr.. Hutson said.
In 1912 Mr.. Fielder was elected to
the house of representatives from
Orange parish and in 1914 he was re-
elected. In 1916 he was chosen SEN
ator. but in 1920 he was defeated for
the senate. He was, however, re-
elected to the house of representa-
tives after being defeated for the
senate and in 1880 he was CHOSEN to
represent his district in congress,
serving from 1S31-18S5 when he de-
cided to retire from public life. After
a few years of retirement he was
again elected to the state senate in
1910 and served until his death, Sep
tember l, 1851.
Senator Huitson spoke in the high
est of terms of the service Of Mr..
Fielder and paid touching tribute to

the senator from Newbcrry and the
portrait was then delivered to the

tempore, called Senator Black OF
Bamberg to the chair to preside over
the exercises as Mr.. Johnstone wished
to make few remarks.

FORD RETAIL SALES
GO OVER MILLION
Show Increase of 10000 Cars and
Trucks Over Previous Year

Retail sales of Ford cars, trucks and
Fordson tractors have again c:iceeded
the million mark for the year 1921,
according to a statement given out
today by the Ford Motor company.
The Ford factory and assembly
plant production figures reached a TO-
tai of 1850, ,74o cars, trucks and trac-
tors for che year, with retail sales by
dealers approximating 1,O93,ooo'
which in the United States alone sur
passed the 1920 retail sales record by
104,213 Ford cars and trucks.
The Ford company says the outlook
for 1922 is decidedly optimistic. IN
fact, concrete evidences already exist
in that car and truck retail sales Tor
December 1921 exceeded December
1920 sales by almost 25 per cent, ana
Fordson tractor retail sales Tor the
same periods show an increase OF ov-
er 100 per cent for December 1921,
as we'll as an increase over the total
tractor sales for the month of NoVem-
ber.
These facts seem to indicate that
NOT onlv are the farmers buying more
freely, but that the general puohc
is becoming more responsive and re-
ceptive.
Another point brought out by a
comparison of production figures Tor
the pas. two years shows that Ford
enclosed cars are gaining in popular
itv as % per cert Of the 1921 pro-
duction were sedans and coupes as
against a total of IS per cent for the
year previous.
Recent reductions in Ford car and
truck prices brought them to low
level. The touring car now sells Tor
s349. the runabout for 1919, the cou-
pe for $3.50. the sedan for S64o, the
chassis for S285, and the truck for
s43O. all f. O. b. Detroit.
This is the fourth price cut IN the
past sixteen months. During that
time the price of the touring car alone
has been cut from S575 to s340, a
reduction of 40 per cent. Reduc-
tions on some of the other types have
been even greater.
The Ford company believes tha1
this reduction, while not a large one'
is especially important at this tlme'
as it should go long way toward sta
bilizing market conditions.
Ford is giving employment at pres
ent to approximately 10000 men IN
his main plant at Detroit, the impof-
tance of which is emphasized when
consideration is given to the fact that
rear 20 per cent of the citys popu-
lation is directly dependent upon the
Ford Motor company.
