Dial's Advice Is Secure Coal
Now.

Washington, July 2s.-"Get coal
now. The situation is serious and no
one knows when the railroad and
coal strikes will end"
This was the gist of statement
issued here today by Senator Dial
after a conference with Secretary
Herbert Hoover, of the department
Of commerce regarding labor strikes
and other matters.
At the conclusion Of the confer
ence Senator Dial was asked for a.
statement and said he had calledsto
see Mr.. Hoover relative to the Char
lesion navy yard matter and the coal
and railroad situation. Mr.. Hoover
Senator Dial stated, is very friendly
to the Charleston yard but as is usu-
al in such cases he found the head
of one government reluctant to in.
terfere or give advice to another one.
GAS to the coal situation,"s Sena-
tor Dial said, "I strongly urge all
our people who can possibly do SO
to procure their coal supplies with
out further delay. Many people re-
member the cold winter Of 1917,
when war was going on and how diff
ficult it was to get coal for various
reasons. Now, with the total output
Of coal at about three and a half mill
lion tons month and the railroad 4
using two and "a half million tons Of
this each month, it will be seen how
necessary it is for our people to get
their supplies now unless they wish
to find themselves very seriously en-
barrassed later on.
81 sincerely hope that some way
may be found to satisfactorily adj
just the present difficulties, both as
regards the rail and coal situation,
but in the meantime I desire to re-i.
peat how absolutely necessary it is. I
to secure coal supplies for both sdo-:
mestic and commercial purposes
without delay. 3 .,S, n. n.

Mr.. Williams said that he wanted to-
make an explanation to the Confed-s
crate veterans. He is member Of
the ways and means committee Of
the house, in which body all appro-
priations originate, and it was a.
greed in this committee that no re-
duction would be made in the appro-
priations for pensions, but that the
senate reduced the amount to $780,
600 from 100000. He said he re-
fused to increase the salary of the
farm demonstration agent for Edge
field county last year as requested
by Mr.. Johnson, the district manager
of Aiken, who said he would remove
the agent unless the increase was
made.
Mr.. Williams said politician said
to him some time ago that the appro-
priations for the asylum, peniten-
tiary and every school should be cut,
and he showed that increased de-
mands upon these institutions made
it impossible for them to do on less
appropriations. He spoke in the high
est terms of the school which has
been taken over by the state in Nc
Cormick county for the support and
education of orphan children. The.
Cedar Springs Institute in Spartan
burg, the scool for the blind, had
asked for increased appropriations
and the needs of this institution
should appeal to every man who has
a heart in him. DR.. Johnson, the pres
ident of Winthrop college, appeared
before the ways and means commit,
tee and stated that 1860 girls had
applied for admission into the college
but that only 1887 could be re-
ceived. Mr.. Williams said he has al
ways been opposed to Sunday work
but that as long as he is member of
the house he will remain at his post
Of duty until the body adjourns to
keep some fellow from having OBJ
jectionable legislation passed during
the closing hours of the session, cit
ing an instance in which he helped to
defeat bad measure. He stated that
he has always voted to save money
for the people, having voted last ses-
sion to reduce his own salary by rs
per cent. This alone would have
saved the tax payers $4,000. In con-
clusion Mr.. Williams called attention
to the fact that we are only paying
this year seven mills for state pur-
poses and that the remainder of our
taxes is spent in the county, and the
delegation is not responsible for the
county expenses.

Difficult times again have fallen upon
the textile trades in general. The sue
cess that few firms have had in sell
| ing their products for future delivery
stands out in sharp contrast with the
dullncss reported by most other firms
Even such comm oditics as tweeds and
ginghams. which hitherto have been
high spots in the tcy tile trades. appear
TO have entered n period Of reversal,
which may or may not be OF temporary
DURATION
The main difficulty in the textile pro-
ducing industry, and this applies alike
to cottons, silks and woolcns, is the
apparent inability of the cloth manu-
facturcrs in general to sell their prod
ucts at a price sufficient to cover raw
material costs, the cost Of production
and to leave fair margin of profit
This is the attitude taken by many mill
men. OF course. buyers are apt to dis
pute the statement that profits are
lacking. Annual reports such as those
of the American Wooden Company and
few of the other large textile organi-
cations apparently disprove this con-
tention. On the other hand, smaller
factors i'll the trade who deal with
much smaller volumes arc no doubt
finding the present situation difficult
The general tendency to curtail mill
production, it is stated. is directly at
tributable to the inability to sell goods
protltably on the present basis of value
as established in the general markets.
CO;tOns
With few exceptions cotton goods
last week showed a downward tendency
both in demand and price Ginghams
are growing less firm in their position,
and several sellers of wide shcetings.
which hitherto have been we'll sold
ahead, have put their goods on memo
randum. Dry goods jobbers are press
ing for lower gingham and mapped
goods prices for fall, which are cx-
pected to be made by the mills some
time next month
Retail activity in general cotton lines
is centered on the novelty dress goods
principally, but spring business in
these has not opened sufficiently to
give a true indication of what may be
expected later.

Silks

Slight change from the dullness that
has prevailed in silks since early in
February was manifested last week.
Raw silk prices worked slightly lower
for the week. In some quarters silk
manufacturers reported stronger de-
mand for finished goods. but the de-
mand has not yet reached point
where prices can be stabilized to the
satisfaction of producers. Undersell-
ing by the small manufacturers and
jobbers, many of whom are controlled
by banks Or factors, is one of the evils
of the present situation in silks.
Manufacturers are still proceeding
cautiously in producing activities, and
as looms run out, hesitancy in re-
mounting them is shown.

General quiet prevailed in the
wooden and worsted markets last week.
