Banquet for stockholders.

One of the most enjoyable ban
qnets ever given in Fort Mill was
that of the stockholders OF the
the First National bank at the au-
ditorium of the graded school last
Thursday evening. A delightful
menu had been prepared by Kan.
awha chapter, ID. A. R., and the
service was ideal in every re-
spect. Covers had been land for
8U-odd, most of whom were stock
holders and their wives, but there
also. were present number of
specially invited guests from
Fort Mill. koek Hill and York.

and Hon. T.SF. Mellow OF York.
All made interesting addresses
Which were much enjoyed, as was
that of Col. 4. B. Spratt, press
dent of the bank.
I'm his address, Col. Cobb called
special attention to the condensed
financial statement of thu bank
printed on the back side OF the
menu card, which showed, az I've
pointed out, that the bank, be-
ginning with "a capital stock of
1926 600, had in ten years accuuru.
lated a surplus and prof, ac-
count of $43,410 and had paid IN
dividends to its stockholders

most successful year in 1921, with
bright prospects for the r:'s=nt

TUESDAY, 5ANUARY II. is22.

There is one way by which d
business mans credit is improved
and that is by q policy OF con-
sisteat newspaper advertising.
Live bank men believe in adver-
itising, for they know it pays.
Their feeling therefore is that
when merchant who is u good
advertiser applies for loan that
reasonable amount of goods,
bought by him on credit, is likely
to be turned over quickly and
promptly paid for on account OF
his method Of keeping his goods
constantly before the public The
banker would have confidence
that the goods would be disposed
of and turned into cash before
they got out Of date, or shopworn.
Discriminating buyers of every
class know that they can get
fresh goods from the store that
advertises. The merchant who
advertises seldom has shopworp
goods. And in that way, advertis.
ing helps the merchants credit
not only with the banks but with
his customers. And one is just
as important as the other.

This Is the first legislation bear.

II enacted into law it would prac-
tlcally annihilate the Railroad Labor
Board. The duties now performed
by the board would be vested in
the commission, which would be
given full power and authority to
prescribe civil penalties and make
such rules and regulations neces-
sary to compel observance of the
act, a power not vested in the
labor board under the transporta-
tion act.
The Ward bill even provides for
the determination of seniority, by

CABLE REQUEST
Connections With Monopolistic

The United States Government will
not grant to the Western Union or
any other telegraph company per-
mission to land international cables
connecting with monopolistic lines of
other countries. .-E
High officials let It be known that
this is the fixed policy of the Hard
ing Administration with respect to
international communication, al
though the State Department re-
fused to comment officially or unof-
ficially on the c. arges of "unbusi-
nesslike" delay ade against 1t by
President Newco y Carlton of the

1t was made cl that the delays
complained of by = resident Carlton
had nothing to do with business, but
resulted from policy. Inquiries at
the State Department were met with
a reminder that cable permissions
come from the White House and not
from Secretary Hughes.
Cartons attack was9based upon a
speech at williamstown, Mass, by
Walter s. Rogers. of the State De-
partment, delegate to the interna-
tional communications conference, In
which he said that the WORLDS cabie
routes were dominated by Great
Britain and that there was a COM

ing to the United States. 49,.
Carlton said that the Western
Union had been applying for more
than a year for permission to extend
it's system to South America, China, !,
Japan and northern and southern
Europe.
The reason for the delay. given in
circles close to the White House,
was that companies with which the
Western Union desired to connect
enjoyed monopolies, particularly in
South America and China, which the
United States could not countenance,
as there is more than one important
