bosch SALES MANAGER
OPTIMISTIC AFTER TRIP

Alfred H. Bartsch, general sales
manager of the American Bosch Mag
neto corporation, has just returned
from six weeks circuit of the east
ern and southern states. having visit.
Ied S3 leading cities in that time. The
lpip was made for the purpose Of in
>estigating s, Leral conditions and
sth1ying tlItir probable effect en-
auto motive sales during the neXr six
months.
The conclusions which Mr.. Bartsch
were Interestingly outlined in let
ter just received by Mr.. II. II, Gra-
ham, of Pendleton Storage Battery.
Bosch dealer in this city.
/ MIR. Bartsch found the south to be
VERY "spotty" insofar as general bus
mess is concerned. Cars were sell
ing well in some places and not well
at all in others; for instance in Vir-
ginia at least 80 per cent of the cars
in the state up to the time of his
/ visit, had not been re-registered.
They were standing idle because of
! lack of funds. The same situation
held in South Carolina and in Geor-
! gia.
Conditions in North Carolina and
| Florida are, at the present time, bet
ter than in other states in the south.
North Carolina looks good from
| future point of view as does Florida,
but both states can be included in
that circle of hesitation which cir
tcumsoribes the entire South. How
ever, while previously not listening
to sales talks or merchandising eff
! tive state of mind.
Cotton possibilities look fair with a
possibility of improvement from a
price point of view, as it seems as
though there would be definite
shortage through the entire south.
This, of course, win cause rise in
price of this commodity sooner or
later, To bring the supply of Amer
lea back to. that of last year we will
have to raise 12,600,000 bales-better
than so per cent increase over 1920
21-but this can't happen this year.
From this it would seem that next
year will be banner year in the
south and it is desirable to plan sales
accordingly.
The central south has naturally
been materially effected by the flood
situation in the Mississippi valley.
Unlike Florida, there has been an ex-
cessive amount of rain and it had
been impossible to plant crops of any
nature. 1t seems however, that the
flood situation subsided just in the
nick of time for the planting of cot
ton, thereby greatly Frightening the
outlook throughout the Mississippi
Valley.

French Communists.

AS a result of the fortunately inef-
fectual attempt upon President Mil
lerand in Paris yesterday demand
has been expressed that the govern
ment put through the chamber OF
deputies before adjournment a pend
ing bill providing the ministry of JUS
tice with a weapon against slanderous
attacks upon public men. This is due
to the fact that for some time past the
communist press of France has been
conducting a bitter campaign against
Premier Poincare and the ministry.
and yesterdays outrage is believed TO
be the elimination. The anarchist
who shot at the prefect Of Paris in
mistake for the president declared
afterwards: lone hears new rumors of
war: my voice is too feeble to be heard,
so I used the gun
The communist assaults upon the
premier and the government have
been in terms Of accusation that the
French ministry has been seeking de-
liberately to provoke another conflict.
Back of this lies unquestionably
wish to precipitate radical reaction.
Between the communists of France
and the Russian bolshevists is known
TO be bond Of sympathy. The
Partisan radicals have been in direct
communion with the third interna-
tionale at Moscow.
There is no general anti-republican
sentiment in France. A small group
favors restoration of the monarchy in
the person of the Duke Of Orleans. A
larger. but still decidedly a minority,
group favors a communist govern
ment. The great majority of the peo-
pie however, are republicans. ana
only by some fluke or chance could the
present organization be destroyed. The
campaign of SANDER conducted by the
communist press is part of the effort
to break down the support OF the re-
public. Naturally the thought OF an
other war is abhorrent to the French
people. They have suffered frightfully
from conflict and want no more fight
ing. whether on their own soil or else
where But they are without doubt
too level-headed to be misled by the
shoutings Of the radicals into any vio-
lent reaction. Yesterdays attempted
assassination will doubtless have the
effect of steadying the nation.
If the present sense Of danger
causes the enactment Of a measure
which will enable the government to
proceed against political slanderers
the crime of yesterday will have been
fortunately timed. An astounding
freedom of expression is permitted in
France and in other countries to the
radicals. There is somewhat of the
same condition here in the United
States. Libels against public officers
are published with dangerous freedom.
Probably if the pending measure is
enacted there will be a loud outcry
against it as a tyrannical step against
the freedom of utterance. But the
remedy is surely justifiable in view of
the peril.

1924.

All talk about new party relates
to 1924. The old parties are good for
one more whirl at least. Nominations
for the next Congress are being made
on the old lines, and the November re-
suit will be labeled as either a repub-
lican or democratic victory.
The proponents of new party are
heartened by the belief that the next
House will be democratic. That. as
they argue, will show the failure Of
the republicans in Office, and put the
initiative on the democrats.
But with what effect so far as lesis-
lation is concerned' How, with the re-
publicans still in control of the Senate
and a republican occupying the White
House, will il be possible for the demo-
Gratis to do more before the campaign
OF 1924 opens than make a gesture?
A gesture will not suffice. Simply to
propose measures and then be obliged
TO compromise with the republicans
for action will throw the country out
OF conceit with the new arrangement.
In that situation. the new party
advocates assert, public sentiment for

Wells for Parliament.

If H. G. Wells gets a chance to try
his hand in parliament the venture
will arouse much interest. He has had
great success with his pen. His novels
and essays and historical books have
been widely read. The range Of his
information is remarkable, and he
puts it to exceedingly clever uses.
But brilliant pen does not guaran-
tee a brilliant tongue, and unless Mr..
Wells commands the latter as cleverly
as he does the former he will hardly
find legislative work to his liking. He
might shine in routine committee pro-
ceedings and participate occasionally
in running debates without drawing
that attention to himself he might
think his due. To "hit the black and
ring the bell" in the house of COM
mons it Is necessary to possess power
and charm as a speaker.
Thackeray tried for parliament, but,
to the relief of many Of his friends and
admirers, missed. His talents did not
lie in that field. Dickens, who when
a newspaper reporter had filled an as
signment in the press gallery Of the

body too close up TO care for member

studies as he may desire.
