WARNING GIVEN OF POLITI-
CAL CRISIS

In Il speech to newspaper cor
respondents Lloyd George warn
ed If new political crisis which
is tacin" Europe.
There is no other statesman in
the world today who is more
closely in touch with world af-
fairs than Lloyd George, nor one
who is better able to Judge sen
F.! tlmeclt and to sense the trend OF
affairs. There seems to be no
doubt but what the close asso-
iciation Of German and Russian
interests through the recent
treaty has created situation
when is fraught with momentous
possi Utilities. Recent dispatches
say that officials of this govern
ment are in close touch with af-
fairs an that it IS realized by them
that. there is grave likelihood Of
secret understanding between
Germany, Russia and Japan. The
Union Of these three countri s
Will indeed create a political
crisis and no one can foretell it's:
consequences. There may yet be
upheaval before the
world finally settles down again
to sane pursuit of peace and
happiness.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
IT'S MEANING AND
ACTIVITIES

It IS generally known thai:
Scotland Neck has a Chamber Of
Commerce and that that body is
functloniny more or less actively,
but 10 doubt there are yet many
who Wnuld ask SsWhat is the
Chamber Of Commerce or
What does it do anyway?''
The current bulletin Of the
Pitt County Chamber Of COM
nlerc4 answers this question as
follows:
A community organization
through which the membership
may work for community better
ment.
The Chamber of Commerce.
stands as non-partisan organ
lzation for the good Of all the
classes.
1t is democratic in that it's
Directors are elected by the men,
bershlp and its program Of work
drafted by the membership.
1t IS an organization through
which It's members may work
and 10 which they may come
with heir suggestions.
1t Is dependent on the dues Of
It's members for support. Like
all o5her organizations ii must
nave adequate finances to oper
ate effectively.
lis accomplishments depend
entirely upon the moral and fl
nanclal support of it's member
ship The officers may work
faithfully, but unless the solid
backing OF the membership en-
velops the organization. it's in
fluence will be curtailed. The
scope Of activities must be
brought within the sphere Of the
annual income.
1t IS community Insurance
policy. lnsuriny the member
against nnprogressiveness and
backward conditions. It in !
sures against bad business condi- |
tons by working unitedly for the
common good.
Summarizing, the Chamber Of |
Commerce stands for homes.
