HARDING'S MESSAGE

President Harding in his annual
message delivered to congress in per
son deals with nearly a score OF sub
jects, chief among them prohibition
farm credits, thetransportation prob
lem, child labor and immigration. The
executive announces his purpose to
invite the governors of the states and
territories to an early conference
with the federal executive authorities
with a view to adopting definite poll
cies of national and state cooperation
in administering the prohibition laws.
He says the day is unlikely to come
when the prohibition amendment will
be repealed and that the nation
should adapt its course accordingly.

HULL BEGINS 1924 CAMPAIGN

Cordell Hull, chairman of the DEM
ocratic national committee, has taken
the initial steps for the holding of
jackson day dinners on or about Jam
uary 5 throughout the United States
in order to promptly and properly
utilize the fruitst of the recent Dem
ocratic victory and to initiate the
Democratic presidential campaign of
1924.
He also suggests that other Demo
cratic anniversaries and appropriate
occasions be utilized in the same way.
Chairman Hull had addressed let
ter to Democratic national commit
teemen and state and county chair
men suggesting that Jackson day be
made the OCCASION for gatherings of
Democrats in every section as means
of inspiring members of the party to
keep alive the eternal principles and
sound policies of the Democratic par
ty and to renew their activity for
the restoration of that party to com
plete power in 1924
He intends, so far as it lies in his
power, that the Democratic party in
the nation shall be a militant party,
and there can be no more appropriate
time to infuse the spirit of militancy
into party organizations everywhere
than on the birthday of the greatest
of the militant Democratic party
leaders.
Recognizing the great part played
by the press of the country in the re-
cent campaign under his national
leadership, Chairman Hull is desirous
of the fullest cooperation between
party leaders and the Democratic
press in making the greatest success
OF the kind in the history of the par
ty, He believes that the keynote of
victory in the 1924 campaign is
united democracy. From the begin
ming OF his chairmanship he has de-
voted much of his time and abinty to
bringing together every discordant
element and fusing them into a har-
monious whole. The results of the
late election bear evidence of sound
ness and success of this organization
policy.
If the plans of Chairman Hull for
the Jackson day dinners throughout
the nation shall be carried out in the
manner in which they are conceived,
the leading Democrats of the nation
as well as Democrats of local promi-
nence will be speakers on this great
occasion, and with the aid of the
press, both in promoting hte dinners
and in reporting the results. the cam.

CAROLINA WAYS

What the governor of North Caro-
lima said to the governor of South
Carolina, touching on an obsolete
hospitality, has long been history, but
probably will long remain as a color
ful story of the old south.
The governor of North Carolina,
however, has risen to the occasion
again and in opening the Democratic
state campaign in the Tarheel state
said:
I'VE authorized $5O,0OO,OOO for
roads. The people were paying auto
mobile tax anyway. We increased it
some. not much put 1 cent per gal
Ion on gasoline, and converted it all
into an interest paying fund, and in
stead of rittering as it came, trying
to build roads with it. we are selling
the bonds and building the finest sys-
TEN of highways in America. We
did not increase tax on anybody to do
il except the automobile owners, and
on him little. We simply applied
sound business principles to the situ-
alton and behold the magic-like con-
struction of the system"
TO which the Elizabethtown News
has made the following pertinent
comment:
This is just the proposition which
was defeated in the Kentucky legisla.
ture last winter because it was drag
ged into politics.
II North Carolina can carry and ar
range to pay a s5O,OOO,OOO bond issue
for roads by automobile taxes and a
tax on gasoline, so can Kentucky.
There are more automobiles in this
state than in the Old North State and
we consume more gasoline. The. as
sessable wealth is greater in Ken,

made one in Kentucky. The News is

The demand for dressed poultry has
not been brisk. and selling markets
have reflected the condition quickly,
somewhat lower prices prevailing.
Quite a large surplus has been placed
in storage for sale later
The United States Department Of
Agriculture made an exhibit at the
International Livestock Show at Chi
cago to show the benefit of culling
the flock. To enable the poultryman
to Gull his hens properly, the exhibit
gave the points to be looked for
when determining poor layer or a
good layer. These points are quick
ly learned and are means of increas-
ing profits from poultry.
Arrivals of live poultry at eastern
markets have been lighter following
Thanksgiving, but as quite few cars
we're carried over from last week,
there has been full supply available.
Deliveries of cream are about nor
NAL for this season of the year, but
the market tendency has been high
er and this has been reflected in the
higher prices for butterfat through
out the producing sections. Consump-
tion of butter is not as heavy as
few weeks ago and any further de-
crease in consumption or increase in
production would have a tendency to
make for lower prices.
The supply of fresh eggs continues
light. Considering the demand, prices
have reacted a little from the high
point, and buyers are taking a more
conservative position, due to pros
poets OF some increase in production
throughout the west and southwest.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24-Twenty
million dollars is the estimate of the
American Red Cross for this fiscal year

tween the national organization and the
active chapters on approximately an
equal basis.
Budget allotments of the national or
ganization for domestic operations ag-
gregate Sc, 335.795, or S4SS obs less than
similar expenditures for last year, while
the allotments for foreign operations will
be S3.404, OF. about $2,247. $50 less than
the year before. 1t was stated that the
reduction in the cost of domestic opera
tions represented saving in overhead
expenses and decreased personnel
through the combining of divisional
units. The foreign operations, with the
exception of the junior American Red
Cross, practically were terminated last
July.
Relief work for disabled former serv-
ice men and their dependents remains
