ACTION OF: GREECE
CAUSES CONCERN
LLOYD GEORGE TAKES HOLD
OF THE PROBLEM-TELLS
PARLIAMENT GREECE WILL
NOT INVADE NEUTRAL ZONE
AT PRESENT.

London, Aug. 1.-The action of
Greece in threatening to march on
Constantinople and proclai1nang
autonomy for Smyrna and its Hin
terland again has forced the diff
cult Near Eastern problem to the
forefront in diplomacy.
Premier Lloyd George in an i'm
portant statement to Parliament
today was able to give reassuring
information concerning the crisis
to the effect that Greece had re-
affirmed its previous undertaking
not to invade the neutral zone, in
cluding Constantinople, without the
consent of the Allies. The pre-
mier expressed the opinion that
the motive for the Greek action
was to expedite a settlement OF
the Near Eastern question. He add
ed that a meeting Of the powers
chiefly concerned would be con-
vened to discuss the situation.
Great Britain, France and Italy
all are agreed not to permit Greece
to force matters by march upon
Constantinople but they are by no
means agreed on general policy
concerning the Near East. 1t is
considered that it was knowledge OF
this disagreement which induced
Greece to attempt to force the stu
alton by proclaiming the autonomy
of Smyrna, hoping by so doing to
prevent the proposed solution by re-
turning this territory to Turkey.
Meantime it is not generally be.
lieved that Greece will proceed to
the extreme. Although She is as
sembling large forces of troops at
Rodesto the powers are taking the
necessary steps to resist any at
tempt upon Constantinople. A strong
British fleet is gathering in Turkish
waters and allied reinforcements
are being sent to Turkey.
One view of the situation taker
in political circles here is that the
move of Greece is a bluff on the
part of King Constantinople to save
his face in his own country and in
duce the powers to recognize him.

EXPLOSION OF GAS
CAUSES INJURIES
More Than One Hundred Persons
Hurt in Chicago and Neigh
borhood Terrorized.

Chicago, Aug. 1.-More than loo
persons were injured and an entire
neighborhood terrorized today by
the explosion of more than 4,O00,-
900 feet of gas and the collapse OF
it's container.
The blast, accompanied by tow
ering column Of flame, came without
warning and spread burns, desola'
tion and fear through district COW
ering about six blocks and peopleo
mostly by foreign laborers.
A group of boys playing baseball
more than 100 yards from the gas
plant had their eye brows burned of
and their hair singed and suffered
burns on their faces. The millions OF
feet of gas, ignited from some mys'
terious cause which engineers have
been unable to explain, lifted the toy
off the huge circular tank.
After the explosion the tank col.
lapsed-a mass of glowing, twisted
iron. The loss was placed at approx
imately $4,000.

The acreage of cotton abandoned
to Julv first was summarized at IL
ner cent, the Department announced
in a supplemental statement issued
in response to Senate resolutions
County agents reported SO.2 per
cent and reporters of the crop re-
norting board estimated 71r3 per
cent of the total acreage was lntest-
ed by the boil weevil.
In it's supplemental report the De-
partment announced 2s5 replies as
to abandonment of acreage had been
received from commissioners Of ag-
riculture and the agricultural agents
Of the various counties in the cotton
growing states. There are s4o cotton
growing counties so that the 2s5 re-
plies received account for only about
"a per cent of the counties.
The estimate of acreage OF the
crop reporting board, issued July .
which was s4,s52,OOo acres, related
to cotton in cultivation on June 20
after practically all of the indicated
abandonment had taken place, the

EFFECTS OF STRIKES
NOW GET ATTENTION
Disturbances Making
Themselves Felt Upon Business,
Says Review.

Washington, Aug. 1.-Industrial
disturbances have begun to make
themselves felt upon business, but
the outstanding feature of the great
er part of July has been the contin-
uance of business and industrial ac-
tivity at the relatively high rate re-
Gently attained, according to the
monthly summary issued tonight by
the federal reserve board.
Production has shown further in.
creases in some lines, the board de,
clared, while in those normally af'
fected noticeably by seasonal infiu'
ences the decreases have been rela'
lively slight.
GAS the current month progress
ed" the board said, "the effects OF
coal and railroad strikes began tc
make themselves felt. This influence
has served recently to restrain pro
ductive activities in various lines
noticeably iron and steel. The plans
recently announced by the admins
tration are expected to relieve the
situation"
Bituminous coal mining has fallen
off greatly since July l, the board
declared, and consequently stocks
have been further drawn upon. An
thracite production the board assert
ed, has been neglible and stocks
with the exception of pea sizes, prac
tically exhausted. The petroleum
output, however, the board found,
continued large with stocks accu'
mulating.
Agricultural prospects, the board
said, are still very satisfactory for
the country as a whole, although
there has been considerable deterio.
ration in the condition of wheat and
oats. Fruit crops were reported to be
above the average and the tobacco
outlook in general was excellent.

MORE MEN NEEDED
TO PRODUCE COAL
ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND WILL
TURN TRICK-UNITED STAT
Es CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
ANNOUNCES RESULT OF IN
yEsTIGATION OF SITUATION

Washington, Aug. 1.-Addition of
100000 men "of equal producing ef-
ficiency" to those now mining coal
would insure a supply of coal. ade-
ouate for the country's needs, &C.
cording to a report made public to-
day by the coal bureau of the cham
ber of commerce of the United Stat
es.
The bureau based its calculation
on the production by $4,000 men
the number said by the department
of labor to be at work in the mines
of something over 100000 tons in
the week preceding the railway shop
mems strike.
There are positive indications, the
bureau said, "that certain industries
in various parts Of the country have
reached an end of the bituminous re-
sources" A development of the
strike which has caused much con-
cern, the report declared, was the
interruption of coal delivery at Lake
Erie ports for shipment to the North
west.
According to the bureau the chief
point of issue between the miners
and operators was found to be "the
basis upon which the operators shall
deal with the miners"-whether on
a national or district basis-with the
"check off, holding the next position
of Importance. The report estimates
that 100000 was collected an
nually by the United Mine Workers
national organization from the
"check off" and that about s7,000,-
900 of this was paid out to weigh
men employed by the union to veri-
fy weights of coal which was paid
for by the ton.

1000 CANDIDATES
TO Be VOTED FOR
ON AUGUST 29TH.-ENROLL-
MENT SAID TO BE NEARLY
DOUBLE THAT OF 1s20.-ES.
TIMATED THERE ARE 1000
CANDIDATES

Columbia, Aug. 1.-Democratic
enrolment throughout the state
which nearly doubles that of the last
election year, 1920, is forecasted by
the reports that are reaching Harry
N. Edmunds of Columbia, secretary
of the state Democratic Executive
Committee. The reports are slow in
coming in, but those received so fa1
indicate an enormous enrolment OF
Democratic voters, as compared with
the figures of two years ago.
Newberry, with two small pre-
cincts missing reports an enrolment
of 1914 as compared with 1898 two
years ago.
Sumter county has an enrolment
this year of 1925. In 1920 the club
rolls showed 1878 names.
In Union county the enrolment
runs close to that for Newberry. The
rolls show 1854 this year, as COM
pared with 3,406 two years ago.
Richland county has enrolled this
year 1869 as compared with to.
tai last election year of 7,172.
The county Democratic executive
committees will meet in all the
counties next Monday to complete
arrangements for the first primaries
on August 29, and the second prim.
ary two weeks after that date.
It is roughly estimated that there
will be two thousand candidates
whose names will appear on ballots
throughout the state in the first pri-
mary. The enrolment is heavier
than ever before in the states his
tory, due largely to the women's en-
rollment. These facts will make the
election machinery the largest and
most bungersome the state has ever
handled. It will necessitate the use
of more boxes and election managers
and persons to count the results. The
county committees will make ar.
rangements to meet the demands Of
this increased enrolment.
