OPPOSITION TO
REDUCTION OF
PARCEL POST
Jonesboro's Traffic Manager
Files Protest With SEN
ator Caraway Re-
garding Issue.

The JoneSboro Tribune says: "A.
L. Tadlock, Traffic Manager, Jones
boro Freight Bureau, upon request
of members of that organization, has
filed with Senator Caraway and
with the postoffice department a
vigorous protest against a reduction
in the weight limits regulations
governing parcel post shipments
1t is proposed, according to informa-
tion reaching the JonesbOro Freight
Bureau, to reduce the weight limit
to fifteen pounds per package.
The Wholesale grocers, the furni-
ture dealers and the hardware stores
receive a great many shipments by
parcel post. They also make many
shipments to their customers in the
surrounding territory. 1t is stated
by these people that the proposed
amendment in the parcel post weight
regulations would seriously affect
their business. In some instances
their transportation costs would be
materially increased. in other cases
sales actually be lost. If this amend
ment were made operative it would
no longer be possible to ship automo-
bile casing by parcel post. Instead
they would have to move via ex-
Dress and the higher rates paid.
There are many articles handled by
furniture dealers and hardware
stores which would be similarly af-
fected. Retail grocery dealers in
the surrounding territory, who now
buy each day for shipment by parcel
post, their daily requirements in
fresh fruits and vegetables, would
according to the statement of one
of our wholesalers, eliminate these
items from thir list Thus it is evil
dent that the proposed new regula-
tion, if permitted to go into effect,
would be detrimental to the inter
ests of JonesbOro generally.
Every effort will be directed to-
ward defeat of the proposed new
weight regulation"

MOTION FOR
DISSOLU
Attorney for Strikers Thinks
That Injunction Now
Should Be Abol-
ished.
CBy The United Press)

Chicago, ILL.,, Oct. ia mo-
ton for the dissolution of the
Daugherty injunction, restrain
ing leaders of the railroad shop
crafts union from proceeding
with their strike, was made
before Judge James S. Wilker-
son in Federal Court here TO-
day.
Donald Richberg, the shop
mems attorney, petitioned the
court to abolish the injunction
because a large portion of the
railroads named in the proceed
ings have settled the strike and
the conditions set forth in the
injunction no longer exist-if
they ever really did exist, and
there is not further reason for
continuing the restraining or
der.
Hearing on the motion has
been set for tomorrow when at
torney Ger. Daugherty will be
expected to appear personally to
make his argument against the
motion.

Member of His Flock Acts
Ugly and Tries to
Palm Off Fictitious
Name Scheme.

Rev. Judge c. Il. Wilson of Jones'
boro, who is police judge Of that
town. had an experience this week
that got him somewhat riled up
in the performance of his judicial
duties. A wayward member of his
flock departed from the straight and
narrow path, chased out in the
broad avenue of worldliness and
thus came to grief. 1t is said he
hconceived the idea that he would
escape the disfavor of his pastor
who is the judge. by offering a
proxyplea of guilty, using "a fic-
The Judge got hard boiled and
bawled out. The Jonesboro Evening
Sun relates the incident in the fol-
lowing report:
Being pastor and police judge

ing ordeal for Judge c. r. Wilson
Parties who attended police court
Tuesday morning noticed that the
executive was considerably ruffled
and unusually stern and exacting.
He refused to allow pleas of guilty
under fictitious names to be entered
for seven men, who police had
caught gambling when they raided a
game on lower Main street, and re-
quosted Sun reporter to tell the
world that from henceforth parties
must appear in court in person and
plead guilty by their own name, that
he would accept no more proxy
pleas. "1t don't pay to act any 9TH
er way than hard" said Judge Will
son.
THE Sun representative had
reached court late and did not
scent the whole trouble, but the
situation clarified yesterday morn
| ing when the docket showed A. A.
Mottsinger, local baker, was fined
The woman in the case was named
/ Minnie Good. She also was fined
$500. What upset the equilibrium
of the judge and what was enough
! to upset anyone similarly situated
;was the fact that Mottsinger is
one of the leading members of Judge
Wilson's church, which is the North
Jonesboro Baptist.
1T is reported that oyertures were
made to the judge tending to get
| him to allow Mottsinger to be tried
under fictitious name. The judge
didn't propose to have any such
procedure despite the fact that he
was the accused mans pastor. Fol-
lowing on the heels of this came
the representative of the seven
gamblers, who were railroad men
and most of whom do not reside
in Jonesboro and had gone out on
their runs Tuesday, and offered to
plead guilty for them.

So with General Offices at Chicago, :,
the sale and distribution is compre-
hensive.
President D. W. Myers when inter
viewed concerning the outlook for
business for this next year cretainly
reflected the attitude of all big men
of affairs regarding the outlook for
business. He said:
with the present attitude of
financiers toward the milk producers,
cooperating with them in every way
to help those who produce the. food
for the nation, could not but make
happier the conditions in the indus
try. While we are not entirely over
the hill, everything is going well,
and with intelligent work and per-
81 stance, conditions in the agricultur-
Iai field will be better in the future
tkan ever before.
The Milking Mcahine Industry is
still to a great extent in its infancy,
there is no doubt that Mixers will
be sold in the future by the millions
just the same as cream separators
have been sold.
The milk producers must be paid
a fair price for their milk. They in
turn must produce, as every manu-
facturer must produce, at the lowest
possible cost.
The business of this corporation
has grown by leaps and bounds and
it is due to this fact that they are
moving their office to a more CEN
tral location.
Neither Mr. Myers or Mr.. Sanders
will move from Wauseon at this time.
The business will be pushed more
than ever before in this field.
All branches are combined at Chi
cago into one distributing house.

OHIO CORPORATION
BECOMES Ma
TIONAL CORPORATION

The Myers Sanders Mixer Com
pany, an Ohio corporation with
offices at Wauseon, Ohio, has just
opened their General Offices at 213-
215 North Des PLANES St., Chicago,
Illinois.
The principle business of the COM
pany will be transacted from the Chi
cago office. The major portion of
the distribution and shipping will be
done from that place. At present
they have a Wauseon office, also an
office at Des Moines, Iowa, at Eau
Claire, Wisconsin and a branch at
Aurora, Illinois.
Such expansion at this time indi-
cate the speed with which conditions
are returning to normal. That
Mighty Oaks from little Acorns
Grow" is we'll borne out by the
growth of this company.
Some years ago, Mr.. D. W. Myers
a user of the Hinman Mixer, took the
agency to sell Hinman Mixers. From
year to year the steady increase of
his business caused the Hinman
Milking Machine Company of Oneida,
N. Y. to add more and more territory
to him. This bore out of the phrase
'To him that hath shall be given.
For number of years, the firm
operating under the name of D. W.
Myers, has had exclusive distribution
of Hinman Mixers in the states of
Ohio and Michigan. The business has
been exceedingly profitable The
steady demand for this product has
increased so rapidly that it has be-
come necessary to increase the fac
ilities for doing business very rapid
ly.
In August 1921, Mr.. Myers asso-
ciated with him in copartnership,
E. R. Sanders, formerly Director If
the Hinman Sales Organization. In
as much as this organization has the
sale and distribution of Mixers in
the Middle West. In October, The
Myers Sanders Mixer Company in
corporated for $250,000 under the
laws of the state of Ohio, taking in
the larger Hinman Distributor Of the
Middle West including Mr.. E. G.
Myers of Des Moines, Mr.. R. L. Sher-
man of Illinois and Mr.. S. P. Sher-
man of Wisconsin. All of these mer
have been pre-eminently successful
in the Mixer business. There is now

a veteran in the field, Mr.. E. R. San
ders, Field representative for the
largest Milking Machine Company il
the United States, Mr.. E. G. Myers
