Harsh criticism and perpetual
condemnation will not do it.

THE great American throat is
not so parched as it was. 1t is

tistics from Washington state that
IN 1921 every man, woman and
child in the Uuited States consumes
an average Of forty nine gallons Of
miik' or nearly gallon a week per
capita. That is encouraging. 1t is
also disheartening-to those who
would abolish prohibition. A
nation that consumes a gallon of
milk a week per person will surely
not suffer to any great extent as a
result Of that terrible thirst" In

POcketbOOk And Humanity.

Pocketbook is in the saddle, will

This is especially true with regart
to the stiife between labor anc
capital. The men in control of on,
great industrial and commercial en-
terprises are fattening at the ex
pense of the stockholders who have
invested their wealth. They draw
big salaries and pull out fat fees
while the stockholders have to be
content with modest dividends.
The same is true in the ranks OF
labor. The head men are rolling
in comfort, draw large salaries, live
high, and revel in their despotic
power, while the rank and file Of
the unions toll and sweat and cough
up-or take forced vacation.
The average stockholder in an
industrial concern is essential
honest and does not look for any
more than is fair and just. He is

the actual toll is in the same class.

wage and steady employment if the
czars and the agltators would leave
him alone. But they won't.
There is one great trouble with
the leaders on both sides. The
greed of pocketbook prevails over
the cause of humanity. They see
nothing except that which is
pleasing to their own sight. Hence
the breach, and the bitterness, and
the strikes, and the stagnation in
business, and the idleness, and the
prlvations and want. Hence the
endless turmoil where peace should

DAYLIGHT SAVING LAW
IS STILL EFFECTIVE
Becomes Operative on Last
Sunday in April, No Danger
of Being Rescinded.

Unless the ordinance providing for
daylight aaving In this city is re-
scinded, and there is not thought to
be any possibility OF this happening,
the clocks throughout Wilmington
will be set back one hour on the last
Sunday in April. which is the time
specified by law that the longer day
shall become effective. The law was
passed by the City Council several
years ago and 1t apparently has al
ways been popular in this city, both
with the business and manufacturing
interests and the citizens in general.
As far as could be learned today
all of the present members Of City
Council are strongly in favor OF the
daylight saving ordinance and there
is no danger Of 1t being nullihed so
far as this present Council is con-
cerned. There has been nothing but
approval OF the measure since IL was
enacted into law and Il IS there
fore the belief that Il will be allowed
TO remain on the statute books.

ment. according to the committee on

Commission. Three hundred and

In connection with motor car thefts
between January ] and August Is,
1921.
Other observations of the committee
follow:
a thief has been known to walk
into largo public garage Mt night
and cover tho Waterman and other
employees with gun while he drove
away with the car OF his choice. The
thief usually prefers to hold ND n
man about to put his automobile In n
garage, rather than to break into n
garage after the car IL locked up.
BY far tho greater number OF stolen
automobiles were taken not because OF
tho intrinsic value. but TO be used In
various forms OF law-breaking.
Tho large percentage OF thefts seem
TO be committed by men or boys under
the age of twenty-five years.
The careless and indifferent motor
list is responsible for the loss OF many
cars says the committee. MANY
hundreds OF passenger cars are lef,

This increase Is expected to be main tained throughout the month, and was started with the movement of cotton, which was at it's peak little over week ago.
 w. E. Thompson, president of the cotton exchange. predicted yesterday that 6o,000 bales of cotton would be handled through the exchange this year, an increase of about 10000 bales over last year. Today's readings at the local cotton exchange were 30.773 bales, received since Au- gust 1; 21,S20 bales shipped and Ill., 9S5 on hand The total number of bales handled all last season was 41,13S.

Fire Prevention Day

Bessemer will observe Monday as fire prevention day in accordance with a proclamation issued by Mayor R. P. McTyeire to this effect.
 Mayor McTyeire, in the proclama- ton, states: Tt has become a na- tion-wide custom to observe October g, anniversary of the great Chicago fire in 1871. as a national fire pre- vention day, and in recognition of this great precedent and in accord ance with the proclamation of the President of the United States of America, am herewith directing the attention of all citizens and sur rounding communities to the de- sirability of observing this day of October as fire prevention day.
 Mindful of the fire waste which is expressed in figures so huge as to be appalling, 1t may be empha- sized that 1t Is a time when all communities need conserve resources in every way and there ought to be especial effort to minimize such losses.
 Therefore, I appeal to the public authorities throughout our district to take steps for the proper ob- servance of the day. suggest a SpeCldl ueSlTdDlilty ol lhAPi Sosihs7 upon the teachers and pupils in the schools. and all persons, the Inn portance of precautionary measures for avoidance of fires.

cents on the close of this week last year.
 The governments report of 500 as the percentage of condition on Sep tember 25, indicating a crop of l0.135, 900 bales, was a supporting in fluence, and seemed to have much to do towards stimulating a better spot demand. Most traders also consid- cred that the ginning figures tC~ Sep tember 25, s,sS3,O06 bales. were small in view of the highly favorable weather conditions that have pre- vailed for opening, gathering and ginning the crop. and they increased the effect of the condition report. During the greater part of the week the weather over the belt was fa vorable. but toward the end, moderate to heavy rains fell in most states, and it was the general conclusion that they had done much damage to the grade of open cotton.
 spinners Uneasy
 The improved spot demand was traced by some traders tC uneasiness of spinners over their seasons sup plies of raw material, but by others was supposed to be due to the eff forts of shippers to cover their Oc- tober commitments. In the early part cf the week, spot sales did not attract much attention but on Wednesday. when southern markets c z 2bined traded in 39.39S bales, the q N and commenced to be an argu- mHi of importance. On Thursday. sales increased to b2,259 bales; on Friday they jumped to 64.300, while on the short week end session they amounted tc the surprising total of 57.722 bales. It was generally com sidered that total sales in the belt. in small towns as we'll as the points officially recognized as markets. wore about 100. 1000 bales q day on the average, which local spot con cerns figure meant that farmers of the belt were getting about s11. 1.000,- 900 a day for cotton. placing them In an independent position regarding the marketing of what they still have on hand.
 This week the condition in tho spot markets of the cotton region will probably have more interest for the trade than foreign political news, al though the foreign situation natural ly will have to be watched. Any further improvement in the spot de- mand would probably create a very strong and active market for con- tracts.
