u. S. EndeayOrs To
Prevent EurOpe's Crash

Copyright, 1922, United Press
Washington, Oct. 25-The Amer
can Government has entered into dip
lomatic deliberations 20 determine
what can be done by the United States
to prevent a final crash in Europe.
Almost constantly, exchanges arc
passing back and forth between the
state department in Washington and
American Ambassadors abroad, while
conversations are ensuing here be-
tween Secretary of State Hughes and
foreign Ambassadors on the serious
situation in Europe, in which the old,
world apparently is looking to this
country as last hope.
It is known that the question Of the
possibility and ACCESSIBILITY of world
conference on the interlocking ques-
tons to be sponsored by the United
States and to be held in Washington
for the purpose of settling this vast
problem, is figuring in these discus
sions. But, at present, it is impos-
sible to state with any certainty what
the final decision Of this government
will be.
That Europe so far as its struc-
ture involves the situation of Ger
many is rolling head on for what may
be final crash. seems to be beyond
question. The official exchanges re-
ferred to above make this plain in
the most startling terms.
This Government may decide 20
keep hands off, for some time Yet in
the situation in Europe, and if 1t
does decide to take action theicharae-
ter Of such steps are not yet evident.
There are indications, however, that

THEY ALL ADVERTISED

Occasionally a man is found who thinks that he
can build up a big commercial success WITHOUT AID
VER'lISING. But usually he wakes up sooner or
later to the fact that it just can't be done There is
nothing more certain in the business world than that
iudicious publicity is essential to success.
This has been so clearly demonstrated time and
time again that it is hardly necessary to refer to the
subject The world war is striking illustration OF
the value of publicity. Does any man believe the
great Liberty Loan drives would have been successful
had it not been for the advertising carried IN the
DAILY NEWSPAPERS. No man will contradict the
assertion that advertising was the big factor In sell
inc liberty bonds and in fact contributed to the
success Of the war than any other one thing.
Under the caption THERE AMT NO SUCH
ANIMAL" the Chicago DAILY NEWS had the fol-
lowing in a recent issue of Printers Ink:
Name ten merchant princes who never advertis-
ed TO Name nine then. Six? Two? OneT WIZ what
is the meaning Of this? Your knowledge of history
and current affairs is comprehensive; your memory
is excellent why, then can't you name the great
leaders Of commerce who built up their enterprises
without advertising!
Simply because There amt no such animal
Great commercial Success since the dawn of history,
have been erected largely by advertising of some sort
or another. And as the means OF advertising I'M
proved. the number and extent of business enter
prises increased correspondngly. Cause and effect
THE big successes are the big advertisers-and
they are not big advertisers because they are big sue
cesses but big successes because they are big adver
tisers. .>.-E
"Tney know not only what to ADVERTISE out how
and when. They are adept II the choice of mediums.
They take no chances Where they lead the later
Conner may safely f3llow.'
Consider for moment:
THE BIG SUCCESSES ARE NOT BIG AD-
VERTISERS BECAUSE THEY ARE BIG sue
CESSES BUT BIG SUCCESSES BECAUSE THEY
ARE BIG ADVERTISERS"
Occasionally YOU fine man who inagines that
his business is TOO SMALL for him to advertise per
sistently and freely.
That's all right" he says, for the man who mas
been in business long time and who has big volume
CT trade but can't afford it,"
Who are the Big successful business men in your
own town? Do they advertise? Yes persistently and
judiciously Advertising pays. Nothing is truer han
that.
Advertise aggressively persistently and judic-
ouSly Put the same energy and force behind your adj
yertsng that you put behind your purchasing agent

Six Thousand More Signers.

Six thousand new members-thirty
million pounds more of tobacco, add
ed to the Tri-State Pool of the To-
barco Growers Cooperative Associa-
ton during the past three months
prove the irresistible progress of the
movement which now includes over
$4,000 tobacco farmers of the Caro-
linas and Virginia.
The directors of this largest CO.
operative marketing association in
America, who are tobacco farmers
elected by their fellow growers of
tobacco, predict that this recent in
crease of members and pounds will
be doubled before the warehouses
open.
When IT'S warehouses of the organ
lied growers open their doors, those
who have failed to sign the contract
must trust their crop to the auction
warehouses for another year, accord
ing to the directors.
The minority of growers in three
states who are waiting to see what
the auction system will do with their
tobacco this year becomes smaller
by hundreds every day.
Since thousands of Eastern Caro-
lima growers heard the message Of
Aaron Sapiro and the doors of four
big warehouse towns swung open in
Eastern North Carolina the campaign
has taken on new life.
Several Eastern North Carolina
counties have now passed an 80 per
cent sign-up and intense campaign
ing continues by warehousemen Of the
association to bring the average sign
up of the Eastern Carolina counties
to more than rs per cent. Of their
production.
Celebrating the successful sign-up
of IS per cent. of Surry county to-
bacco, thousands of farmers from six
counties staged a mammoth meeting
at Elkin, N. c., last Saturday where
Oliver ]. Sands, executive manager
of the association assured the grow
ers of the successful progress of each
department of the marketing asso-
citation. Hundreds of contracts from
Virginia and South Carolina reached
Raleigh headquarters last week.

Feeblemindness in South Carolina.

At the request Of the governor, the
National Committee on Mental Hy-
giene made a survey in South Caro-
lima. The State Board of Public We'll
fare, the State Board of Health, the
State Superintendent of Education
and other cooperating agencies gave
both their time and their labor to
the furthering of this great task.
This survey covered many jails,
schools, orphanages and other groups
of people and it was most carefully
made by persons of high training and
great skill. The findings of the Ma
tional Committee on Mental Hygiene
can be received with confidence as to
their accuracy.
The extent of feeblemindness in
South Carolina is alarming. The
necessity of treatment and of pre-
vention is work for US today; thereby
wiping out much crime and depend
ency TN our SIate.
The Newsletter, beginning with the
July issue, will present to you the
true history of feeblemindness as it
is today in South Carolina. Other
states are in the same plight, but the
subject has not been brought so smit-
ingly to our attention before. The
subject for our next months issue
will be "Feeblemindness in our Pub
lie Schools" This subject will be
discussed fully, stating facts as they
exist today, the causes of feeblemind-
ness, and what is being done and what
should be done to relieve our state
of these deplorable conditions.

Motor Stocks Were
 W. Y. Curb Leaders
By Associated Press

New York, August 15.-Mo,or stocks demanded most attention on the curb exchange today because of buying orders from sources con- nected with cancelling interests. Durant Motors of Indiana was a strong feature, dealings on large scale forcing its price up from 1878 to 15ss.
 The parent company, Durant cor poration of Delaware, was also in in creased demand and during the fore noon ranged from 29A to 29A Rec Motor Trucks, selling ex-dividend, was also in demand and rose to 13%. Cleveland and Packard both were in demand at advances. Stutz Motor ranged during the forenoon from 2S to 23%. Goodyear Tire was firm. with sales at 1O1a and Hayes Wheel was traded in at 29A. High priced stocks were firm; New York Tele- phone preferred again selling at 107A and Public Service of New Jersey, preferred, sold at 103 to 104; Gillette Safety Razor was traded in at 223.
 Standard Oil of Indiana was the most active feature in the Standard oil group, advancing from 10Sss to 109%.
 Southern States oil was steady with sales at 13A to 1874

WHEAT WAS DOWN BELOW D OLLAR MARK YESTERDAY

Chicago, August 15.--wheat dIs- pensed with the dollar sign today for a while. buyers were so scarce. The market touched s9c a bushei for the September delivery. with all months at new low price record for the season. Closing prices un- changed at Ac net lower to 1lsc de- cline, September at s1.0O11 @1.ooM, and December al s1.15B to s1.15ss. Corn. however, gained A. to A@17sc, and oats ssc to ssc. In provisions the outcome varied from 2Ac decline to 10c advance.
 Shrinkage of buying power and widening out of pressure to sell were most apparent in the wheat market after word was out that President Harding would hold no further par- leys regarding the rail strike. De- mands for wheat seemed to be res stricted almost altogether to previous sellers who were in position to collect profits.
 A moderate rally with which the wheat market closed the day was ascribed in the main to profit taking.
 Complaints that corn was firing because of continued hot dry weather. gave strength to prices for corn and oats. In particular. the Nebraska corn crop was reported to be going back rapidly.
 Provisions were dull and irregular, but scored some gains owing to 1o,- O00,000 pounds reduction of lard stocks here.

REACTIONS SET
 IN AFTER EARLY
 STAPLE ADVANCE
Rx AsaocIated Press

New York, August 15.--Early ad- vances were followed by reactions in the cotton market today but after selling off from 2o.5sc to 2o.12c, the price of December contracts rallied to 2O.62c, or 40 points net higher on covering inspired by the more, favor able view of domestic labor condi- lions. December closed at 20.60c with the general market closing steady at net advances of 3S to 3s points. !.
 The market opened firm at an ad- vance of to IS points and the acti ye positions showed net advances of 30 to 36 points before the end of the first hour, owing to the hope of an early settlement of the coal strike, relatively firm Liverpool cables, and reports of slightly better business In Manchester. The firmness in the English market evidently offset the further decline in central European exchange and while further showers were reported in Texas, crop de- terioratlon reports continued to come in from practically all parts of che belt.
 Demand failed to broaden material ly on the early advance which met some realizing and scattered southern hedging, however, and the market turned easier during the middle of the day under renewed selling on the fear of a decline under the weight of early new crop receipts. For a time the market showed con siderable weakness with the early afternoon break extending to goose for October and 200 for January, or 1e to 14 points net lower and back to within few points of the lowest prices this month.
 Covering then became more active and the market made new high ground for the day on the reported settlement of the soft coal strike, reports of a better tone in the stock market and expectations of a bulli5h weekly report on crop progress frcm the weather bureau tomorrow. .Oc- tober sold at 20.61c and. January to 2o.50c just before the close.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON

New Orleans. August 1b.-Heavy buying of cotton was in evidence in the local market today in the early trading and again in the late trading. In between prices sagged under private reports of further rains in Texas and claims that considerable moisture falling in drouthy sections of the state. The early strength was stimulated by much higher Liverpool than due, and the first advance carried prices to the highest levels of the day to 20.1Sc for October. and gains of 3S to 42 points the list. Sags carried the market as low 3 to 20 points under yesterdays final prices at one time, but the close was at net advances of 3l to Al points. October closing at 20:11c. At it's lowest, October traded at 19.60c.
 It was at first claimed that light rains in the western belt of the last few days had done the crop little good. but when Texas points commenced to tell of more rain failing during the day wave of sell ing developed and during a good part of the session prices were either at small net declines small net advances.' The interior was a heavy seller at times. and the market had to take great deal of hedge selling.
 After the middle of the day, private crop estimate of $500. .000 bales was sus- taining influence. but the heaviest buying followed the receipts of rumors. over pri. vate wires, to the effect that the coal strike had been settled.
