Vocational at EIlerbe.

Richmond county is to have
two vocational agricultural in
structors-s something that few
counties in the State can boast.
J. F. Lawrence began the work
at the school at Rockingham last
year, and will continue the work
for the ensuing school term.
And now the Ellerbe school is
to have a similar course. Mr.. ].
A. Glazener arrived at Ellerbe a
few days ago, and will get his
course lined up preparatory to
the school opening early in Sep
TENDER. Mr.. Glazener is accom-
panied by his wife and six
months-old infant. He graduated
at State College last Spting, but
would have finished two years
ago had it not been for the war.
He was in the 9Th Marines. and
was in the fight at Chateau
Thierry and was gassed at Sois-
sons. His home originally was
near Brevard, in the mountains.
This addition to the school
work is more or less new. The
State and Federal governments
defray three-fourths of the ex-
pense, and the school but one
fourth. And so for a compare
lively small sum Il the cost the
Rockingham and Ellerbe schools
have the advantages of agricul-
tural vocational courses and no
doubt they will prove popular
lcourses with the students.

New England Mnst Develop Power
 ForHs Industries; Hubbard Says

ply has brought home to us most forcibly the fact that the future of New England as manufacturing center is dependent upon the avaia- bility of power independent of coah'
 President Hubbard also discussed labor conditions, his report showing that during the past year we had to contend with only 12 industrial disputes. The number of workers in vo,ved was 1,221, estimated loss in production S124,00o, estimated loss in wages S166.250, and the total work ing days lost only 43,1s7." He point ed to the fact that the figures show ed reduction from previous years.
 The report of the president was as follows:
 From the appalling multitude or pertinent things on which you ex- pect me to report, l find it rather difficult to- select those which will give the most concise idea of the ac- tivities of the association during the past year. I beg you to bear in mind. however, that in reviewing accom- plishments, I am not speaking for myself, but like the distinguished New Englander of the 1620'-, l am speaking for those who have sent me the membership.
 When I speak of organization l would like to have you vis:.alize some

number of power projects, chief of which Is the Great Lakes-St. Law renee proposal. The work of the special committee on this problem IS most interesting and will form an i'm portant part of the final annual re- port.
 Although I have spoken briefly of the contact with various organiza- tions, want to mention specifically the relationship of the association with the agricultural interests of the state.
 You will recall that in 1920 many of you sent exhibits of your products to the agricultural sand industrial ex- position held by the association in CO.,
 operation with the agricultural or ganizations of the state.
 Tt was, however, the feeling of the board of directors that in view of the
 rather uncertain business conditions and the great amount of time re auired to make the industrial section worthily represent the manufacturers of the state. our participation this year should involve only money contribution. This has been given and in addition we shall do every thing possible through moral support to make the exposition a success.
 .I find that it will be impossible to attempt in any way to recount even a part of the most important accom- plishments of the work of the asso- citation during the past year. I shall, therefore, call to your attention but one more important activity. Through the traffic committee the association has been able to be of in- estimabe service to members In IT specific instances they have been
 able to secure direct through cnr
 service to northern, southern and western points where no service be- i fore existed. They have secured re- duced rates and have on ,innumerabie occasions represented the member.
 ship at public hearings and before various traffic organizations of the
 carriers. They have interested them selves in towing rates and steamship rates. and in many instances havi teen able to be of direct vital sery. l ice to members. As a specific Illus
 tration I should like to have you nott that during the recent embargo period the association has secured permits from and to embargoed ter i ritory amounting to date to 276,o0t pounds The files of the association
 contain scores of letters Of apprecia
 ton from those members who have
 benefited by this service"

 New Haven, Dec. 1S.-In his re- port to the members of the Manufac- turers' Association of Connecticut, Inc, at the annual meeting here to- day, President E.

He referred particu- larly to the recent coal and rail strikes which practically isolated New England and placed it at the mercy of outside interests.

TRUTH WILL PREVAIL.

Washington, Oct 2o-As 1t is no longer necessary to fan the populace into frenzy, the public press is gradually telling the truth about the shopmen's strike. A local newspaper says:' President Harding believes o5 per cent of present transportation difficulties is due to defective equip ment.
 "The President is informed, accord ing to the White House, that during the period when the strikes were widespread the condition of rolling stock was far worse than ever report ed by the railroad executives. This condition, 1t was said, applies not only to locomotives, but freight cars as we'll

ORGANIZED LABOR
 OPENS TWO BANKS:
 MAKES NEW RECORD
Workers of Cleveland and Birming- ham Launch Big Business
 Institutions.

The record for cooperative labor | banks was broken on Monday, Octo- | Der ?, when two big cooperative
 banking institutions opened their doors at the same hour, one in Cfeve- land, O., and the other in Birming- ham, Ala, both owned and controlled by organized labor. The Federated Bank & Trust Co.,, of Birmingham, Ala, founded by the
 railroad brotherhoods, the Central
 Labor Council of Birmingham, and a
 few trusted friends of labor, has the
 distinction of being the first CO., operative bank in the Southland. It IS organized under the laws of the state
 of South Alabama, with a capital of $5oo,oo and a surplus of $5oooo, much of which has already been paid in The Federated Bank & Trust Go. is the result of months of careful planning and sound organization work
 It is established on sound coop eratiye principles that are sure to bring success, following closely the plan of the big B. of L. E. Co-opera tive National Bank of Cleveland, and similarly sharing it's earnings with all depositors.
 On the same day that the Birrning- ham cooperative bank commenced business the B. of L. E. Cooperative National Bank opened its new offices in the heart of the business district of Cleveland, housed in the big I7- story bank building recently pur- chased by the B. of L. E. Building Association for this purpose. The opening was marked by deluge of strikingly beautiful floral pieces, ex- tending greetings from the many friends of the Brotherhood Co-opera- tive Bank.
 The judgment of the executives of the parent bank in establishing this uptown office was amply justified by the rush of new business which has ensued already exceeding in number the accounts opened daily at the main office of the bank.
 l. Commenting upon the record of the new banking office, Warren $. Stone, grand chief of the B. of L. E., and president of the Brotherhood Co., operative National Bank, stated:
 "The Euclid avenue office of the B. & L. E. Cooperative National Bank is everything that we had hoped for. It commenced doing business from the first tap of the gong, and has been busy ever since opening up new ac-

BIG BIZ IS CLEVER
 IN LULLING PUBLIC

New York, Oct. 2o-The clever ness of big business is shown by the way the New York state chamber of commerce would "put over" the passport system under which no one can leave or ,enter a community with out the consent of local authorities.
 Ostensibly the, hnger-printing of every person in the United States is favored on the ground that this would check crime and prevent colonization of voters at election time.
 The real purpose of the scheme IS indicated by the statement that with the general hnger-printing system in effect 1t would be possible for the local authorities during such periods as may be deemed expedient" to re- quire all persons to carry cards of identifcation
 The cleverness is shown in the manner in which the scheme is to be fastened on the country The cham Der of commerce, of course, is only interested in a greater control over workers, but to avoid this charge the committee recommends that at first the fnger-printing be not made man datory. Instead, it Is suggested that all concerns that compel their em ployes to be fnger5printed be given lower burglarly insurance rates than employers who do not demand that their workers be hnger-printed.
 This would be powerful lever on employers to establish the scheme without any law. With the workers all fnger-printed the chamber of com merce would forget about finger printing the rest of the population.

CHURCH'S SPHERE IN
 INDUSTRY IS UPHELD BY LARGE EMPLOYER
P. H. Callahan Declares That Labor
 Problems Are Really Moral Issues.

The church hasjn only the right but, is in duty bound to interest itse1t in industrial problems, is the answer of P. H. Callahan, large employer , to criticism of the industrial programs of the Federal Churches of Christ ir America and the National Catholic Welfare Council. >h5
 Industrial problems are at their root moral problems, and the church, holds MT. Callahan, is in it's pre- eminent do main when it concerns itself with whatever affects human beings.
 MT. Callahan is president of the Louisville Varnish Co.,, Louisville Ky, and is widelyaknown in conner cial circles throughout the country He Is regarded as a progressive and enlightened employer. His statement appears in the September issue of The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science.
 Industry Won't Be Let Alone.
 Reciting that modern industry holds to the individualistic theory of the last century, MT. Callahan declares that the world has lost sympathy with that conception. The world war showed that, he adds, the ramihcations of pro- <ductoin and distribution have come to affect the public too widely and too deeply for industry ever again to be s'let alone" by the guardians of the public welfare.
 The right of the state to interfere, he says, is no longer questioned, and he insists that the right of the church Is but another aspect of the same mat ter, for industry bears on morals even more than 1t bears on the public interest Unless the church is pre- pared to forfeit all right in the moral sphere 1t must concern itself with ev- erything that has to do with human relations.
 Where the amount of wages, the length of hours, the safety of em- ployes, is to be determined" declares MT. Callahan. "a question of morals is involved.
 Man is not a machine to be gear ed and run for the benefit of indus try, whether on the basis of an in dividua1istic or socialistic philos- ophy.
 1 Men are no more to be exploited
