WiNiston Man Says
Europe Near Wa,
DIR. Clarence j. Owens, On His Re-
turn From Europe, Paints Con-.
ditiOn Serious.

Hoboken, N. j., Oct. 13.-Europe
is closer to military conflict than at
any period Immediately preceding
the World war, members of the in.
ternational trade commission Of the
Southern Commercial congress de-
clared today upon their return on the
President Harding.
The commissioners stated thai
their study of conditions in all the
European countries convinced them
that immediate solution of the var,
ious financial, economic and repara.
ton problems was necessary to avoid
disaster.
Fourteen members of the commits
sion, headed by Clarence J. Owens OF
Washington, D. c., returned on the
President Harding. A report Of the
commissions Investigations will be
presented to the 18th \ commercial
congress in Chicago November 20 to
%.
Notwithstanding the treaty of
Versailles and the low economic
status of European nations" said a
preliminary report of the commits
sion, Europe is more nearly on the
verge of military conflict than at any
period Immediately preceding the
World war. The Belgian compromise
is purely temporary and unless some
solution of the problem is reached
prior to the expiration of the six
months period the conditions in
Europe will be infinitely worse.

BarnweN and Ban1berg
Counties Furnished Some
of Vanderbih;S Leaders

| friends and visitors. The South Caro-
lima Woman's club has some mem
bers present. Preachers, teachers,
business men and others, some OF
whom are natives of South Carolina
and others who are descendants OF
former Carolinians, are among
those present.
So to a South Carolinian residing
in this cultural center of the South,
it is good to know that South Caro-
lima has contributed so greatly to the
leadership of Vanderbilt from its
very beginning so years ago. And it
is also interesting to know that as
James H. Carlisle served at Wofford
for so many years, so James H. Kirk
land, a student under DR.. Carlisle,
has given so many years to Wander
bilt. And it is fitting that one of
the students under Chancellor Kirk
land should have succeeded DR.. Car
Isle as president of Wofford. So the
names of Shipp, president of Wof-
ford until 1875, then professor at
Vanderbilt; Carlisle, president OF
Wofford until 1908; Snyder, presi-
dent of Wofford since that time; Nc
Tyeire, chairman of the board Of
trustees at Vanderbilt; Summers,
vice chancellor at Vanderbilt; Kirk
land, chancellor at Vanderbilt; Wan
namaker, writer of Vanderbilt uni
versity ode and a graduate of Wof-
ford, should be so linked that as the
years pass, South Carolina and
Vanderbilt shall be inseparable.
Truly vanderbilt Week. is in a
sense "South Carolina Week" as
we'll. ....

LABORS OF GERMAN CHEMISTS MAY ; PRODUCE SYNTHETIC GOLD FORMULA

national conference would doubtless be immediately called and the stabilized commodity dolar-as SC strongly recommended by Professor Irving Fisher Of Yale University would, as soon as possible, be substi- tuted in It's stead, All new contracts 1 would be based on this commodity dollar. But what would happen to the old contracts? Is there anything to prevent people from paying off their present debts with gold dollars? Meanwhile as governments work so slowly, great change would take place in the security markets of the world. Almost everyone would be af- fected in some way or other.
 The holders of bonds and other forms of indebtedness would have their securities paAd off in appreciated gold, Gold for industrial purposes is not as good Il metal as iron, copper or lead since. the value of gold today consist almost wholly in it's rarity. With this rarity destroyed it would sink to q low figure This means that those who are loaners cs money and
 
 wholly, in bonds and notes, would suf- fer serious losses. This does not apply to banks. Banks would receive this synthetic gold in payment for their securities and loans, bui they would use the same synthetic gold to pay off their depositors. Therefore the bank, like the commission merchant, would neither gain nor lose by the discovery.
 The great benefit would come to those who own land. forests, mines, water power and industries in general. stocks would have tremendous boom, the greatest boom in history. In short, the creditor, the man who loans, would suffer tremendously but the operator, the man who owns na- tural resources or shares in active business would greatly prosper. There is only one chance in a thou sand, perhaps one in ten thousand, of 1 any such discovery being made. It is. | however, of such importance that i, every one should insure a little against |; it and not put all of his money into i bonds, Purchase a certain amount of [ land have 9 portion of your funds in ! mines, forests, water powers and other national resources. Be in a position | so that If such a discovery is made you would profit thereby, at least to , the extent that you would not suffer great loss.
 General business has settled down Tor it's mid-winter dullness The Bab- sonchart index shows it running Is per cent below normal. No change rom last week.
 Early in the spring I look for pro- 'ounced activity in building lines, the influence of which will be felt throughout the whole business struc- ure.

''ls there any hope for Germany? ?' When this question Is asked, reference
 Is made of course to the present Ger
 man Government. We all know that the German people are industrious, and that they will get on irrespective
 of what happens to their government, There Is, however, great doubt as to
 the financial future of the German
 government. Germany's indebtedness
 Is great, her money is almost valueless
 and credit Is nil, Owing to the fact
 that the other countries of Europe
 are likewise poor they could extend
 very little help to Germany even If
 they cared to do so. Consequently, the outlook Is dark. 'Germany's only consolation Is that If she goes by the board she will probably have com pany.
 There Is one hope however, for financial Germany hope so very slight that there is perhaps only one chance out of n thousand yet it's con sequences are so far reaching that l want this week to tell my readers of 1t, l refer to the possibility of dis covering way to manufacture syn thetic gold Private advices have been coming to me for some time that German chemists are diligently work ing to discover some method for mak- ing synthetic gold. l do not know that the German government is directly be- hind such experiments but indications point in that direction. The German government would of course be justi- fled in spending tremendous sum of money to discover a process of mak- ing sythetic gold.
 Reports indicate that a process has already been discovered for the mak- ing of gold from quick silver the only difficulty being that the present pro- 'ess costs more than the product is worth. In other words synthetic gold today is worth more than it's weight
 gold. Consequently it cannot be l lsed as a substitute for gold. If, how ever it is demonstrated that lead is made from the same base as gold and hat the difference lies only in the ar 'angement of the atoms, which arr
 dH6eAlcHL IL IS pOSslDle to CnanRe,
 hen gold can be made from lead as we'll as analine dyes can be made from ,oal tar.
 If any such process is discovered he havoc it would create is apparent. The discovery would of course first be reated very secretly, and tre- nendous amount of gold would be made and coined before anyone learn- d about it. This gold would be. used y Germany partly for paying off it's eparation debts. partly for purchas- ng raw materials, and partly for the of the difficulties of its own eople. Even however after the dis { every became known little or nothing { ould be done about it. Gold is gold, nd that's all there is to it. An inter-

REPORT ON CROPS
 SHOWS VARIATIONS
Northern Hemisphere Seems
 Better Than Southern

Washington, Jan. 21.--Crop condi-
 tions in the northern hemisphere were | reported today by the agricultural de- partment to be still quite variable" | while the harvestings in the southern 1 hemisphere were said to be in gener-
 al slightly below estimates.
 While the harvesting of wheat in
 Argentina was said to be making good progress, recent reports, the depart
 ment stated, were less optimistic than
 earlier ones as to the probable yield The crop was said to be of generally good quality, however, with the area planted estimated at approximately 1,00O,00O acres less than for the pre- ceding year.
 Harvesting the Australian wheat crop, now practically completed, also was expected to show some reduction, it was said, from the first official es- timate of 146,614,000 which is ap- proximately equal to the 1920-21 crop.
 The condition of winter wheat was reported to be generally good through out the eastern and northern section of the United States and also Canada but was described as poor in most of the southwestern states. Winter rye were reported to be very good in this country.
 Winter crops were said to be show ing some deterioration in Germany and irregular growth in France, due | 10 drought, while they were report d as favorable in Hungary and sever Il neighboring states.

SLEUTH AND BANDIT
 KILLED IN BATTLE
Shoot Each Other to Death, Adding to Long List of Chicago
 Tragedies ~-.

Chicago, Jan. 21-A detective Ser. geant and bandit yesterday shot each other to death in pistol fight, which police believe, was an outgrowth of the more than half a dozen murders which took place last summer in the Nineteenth ward, as result of a political feud.
 Detective Sergeant Charles Paldina was shot by one of five men in a saloon which he was entering He re- turned the fire and his assailant's body was found outside the building with three bullet holes in the back. Paldina died before he could be taken from the saloon.
 The bandit was identified as a man named Newman, who had been trailed by detective seeking evidence in the Nineteenth ward murders. Paldina had made several arrests in these cases, and had received several death threats as result of his work.

ADAM AND EVE GO SHOPPING
Writer Has Drawn Literally on His
Imagination in Describing Re-

Let us imagine our scapegOat an
cestors attempting an e1even-o'clock
stroll through Drang's ten-story de-
partment store. Can we not hear the
tense calculations of our first mother
before the mountains of unknown
things, woods, satins, silks, challies,
Organdies and muslins, piled ceiling
high before her? Even Adam, who
has reputation as manner Of things,
might well drop all his A1iltonic airs
Of superiority, and say for once in
some dainty form of Edenic language,

but all this" with gesture of meek
hopelessness) "is out Of my zone. Yet
l am sure it is all intended for your
sex; for I'm thinking no man would
gear himself up in any Of this
duffle"-if one may help him to a
word.

FORM would retort:
"But Adam, dear you can't deny
that it is all most tempting, and ! am

What Cabbaqes Dislike.

Some time ago, d number Of scien-
fists, by means of device invented
by an Indian savant, were able to
watch a plant growing. and study the
beating Of what in vegetable life cor
responds TO the heart of an animal.
An average plant grows at the slow
rate Of One-millionth part of an inch
per second, yet this device so megni-
fies this that, thrown upon the screen,
the increase is easily seen. Plant life
does not differ greatly from animal
life. Place the roots in boiling water,
it struggles and dies the same as the
animal. cabbage dislikes being
boiled as greatly as would your pet
dog. The only difference is that the
cabbage can not protest, but squirms,
wriggles and writhes.

GOES BACK TO OLD EGYPT
Legend of Cinderella, Almost Uni
versal, Believed TO Have Come
From Ancient Memphis.

ClndeDella and the legend surround
have originally come from ancient
Memphis. In the ruins Of this buried
city lies the pyramid Of RhodOpis, who
lived at Naucratis, and was incom-
parably beautiful and chaste. One day
when RhodODiS was bathing an eagle
few through the open ceiling of her
bathroom and plucked from her maids
hands the sandal which she was just
about to lace about her mistress
foot.
The eagle then flew to Memphis,
where the king was administering JUS
tice in one of the courts of the palace,
and lowering above the king, dropped
the sandal, which fell into the folds of
the kings garment. He examined the
sandal and found it so small and love
~ that he babe his servants search all
Egypt till they should find the woman
whom it would fit.
Rhodopis was found in Naucratis
and carried to the king, who married
her. She died after few months
happiness, and the diSc0nseiate king
had one Of the cOstlieSt pyramids OF
antiquity built In her memory. In the
first century B. c. the priests Of Mem
phis were wort to exhibit q sandal in
a crystal shrine which, they declared,
once belonged to Rhodopis, miraculous
ly preserved through many centuries
The sarcophagus and the mummy of
Rhodopis have entirely vanished and
her pyramid is little more than ruin,
but her legend lives in every land.
