MAY CLOSE MANY
TEXTILE MILLS
Most of Plants in Piedmont Sec
ton Operate by Hydro-Elec-
trio and Not Affected.

CHARLOTTE, n. c., Aug. 30
While the possibility of an enforced
shutdown of many textile mills in the
Carolinas within the next TIVE or three
weeks looms larger daily, most of the
mills in the Piedmont sections of the
two states operate exclusively on
hydro electric power and therefore are
not menaced by the growing scarcity
Of fuel, according to men familiar with
the situation.
Many of the mills operated by
hydro electric power use some coal,
but comparatively little, it is pointed
out. OF this class is the Chadwick
Hosl1ins company's large chain Of
mills E. c. Dwelle, secretary of this
company, said tonight that their
plants have enough coal on hand to
last only two or three weeks. Accord
ing to Winston D. Adams, secretary of
the American Cotton Manufacturers
association, this condition is typical of
that of the electrically driven mills of
this section generally.
No Coal Received
1t was said by these officials that
virtually no coal is being received by
any mills in this section, and unless
the situation is relieved somewhat in
the next week OF two curtailment of
operation on the part of many mills
will be necessary. Only one mill, the
Lancaster Cotton Mills. of Lancaster,
s. c., thus far has been reported clos
ed on account of the coal shortage.
This company employees around 1900
workers. It closed last Saturday.
1t was pointed out that of the L.
900 or more textile plants of all kinds
in the two Carolinas, 34S mostly in
the Piedmont section, use hydro-elec-
trio power exclusively, while 295 use
steam power only, and 262 use both
electric and steam power, according
to the latest available statistics.
No general shutdown of electrically
driven plants is expected, according 10
local textile workers.

Frank Dupre Will
Go To The Gallows

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. S0.-Frank B.
Dupre, 10 year old slayer of Irby c. Wal
ker. a private detective. will be managed
in Fulton county jail Friday sometime
between a. m, and p. M, it became
almost certain tonight, after Governor
Thomas w. Hardwick refused to grant a
thirty day reprieve.
The governors action followed by few
hours that OF the Georgia supreme court
which refused to issue a writ of man
danus nisi upon Judge John d. Humph-
ries of the Fulton superior court, to show
cause why he did not entertain a plea
OF habeas corpus filed by counsel for
Dupre Thursday.
II. A. Allen, attorney for Dupre. stated
tonight that he had not given up hope
for the youth but said he did not know
what his next move would be.
Governor Hardwicl1 yesterday refused
to commute the death sentence of Dupre
to life imprisonment. turning down pc
tition signed by more than 1900 persons,
q great many of whom were women.

AMENDMENTS TO
SOLDIER BONUS
ARECLEARED Up
Number and Length of Speeches
Will Decide Whether Final
Vote Will Be Reached.
BILL MAY RECEIVE COOL
RECEPTION FROM HARDING
Proponents Urge That No More
Amendments Be Added That
Would Cause a Veto.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-An pending
amendments to the soldiers bonus bill
were disposed of today by the senate
but whether final vote would be reach
ed tomorrow depended upon the number
and length of speeches.
With favorable action assured, the par
amount question in the minds of friends
and foes alike was the reception the
measure would receive at the white
house. There still was no official word
from the president, but callers who dis
cussed the subject with him today said
they gained the impression that the ad-
! dition of the land reclamation project and
the provision for the payment Of the
bonus out of the interest on the foreign
debt had made the bill even more OBJ
jectiona BILE than it was in its original
form.
Harding May Veto.
Again today the possibilities of veto
ran through senate debate. Senator Nc
Cumber, Republican, North Dakota, in
charge of the measure, contended that as
reported the proposed legislation met the
objections heretofore expressed publicly
by the president. He added, however,
that he did not know what new objec-
tions might present themselves ss
Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho, an
opponent of the bonus, disagreed with
Mr. McCumber contending the bill "ran
directly counter to some of the eXecu-
tives' objections and failed to meet 9TH
ers. He referred particularly to Mr.. Har-
ding's request for postponement until In
dustrial and financial conditions had
reached a more normal state and his dis
approval of "piece mear' payments to
the veterans.
Urge Against Amendments.
Leading proponents of the bill urged
throughout the debate that the senate
refrain from "loading down. the meas
ure with additional amendments which
might furnish further ground for veto.
All proposed changes were rejected by
decisive majorities. First the Bursum
amendment to pay the veterans half cash
Immediately and the remainder in five
years was voted down, a. to 27. Then,
without a roll call, the Snoot proposal to
paw the bonus with a manufacturers
sales tax was diagreed to.
Senator Smoot presented and argued
at length in favor of his plan to give each
vertean a 20 year pay life insurance pol
icy. but this was rejected, 46 to is.
AS they will on the final vote, party
lines disappeared on the roll calls today
The Bursum amendment was supported
by sixteen Republicans and eleven Demo-
Gratis and was opposed by 81 Republicans
and 13 Democrats. The Smoot insurance
amendment received Is Republican and
three Democratic votes with 80 Republi-
cans and 16 Democratic votes in opposi-
ton.

French Are Still
Determined To Get
German Payments

PARIS, Aug. 30.-Grim determination
to obtain reparations from Germany,
seize guarantees and enforce such pay
ments in the event that the reparations
commissions decision tomorrow should
grant moratorium to Germany without
exacting the securities demanded by
France is everywhere evident in French
official circles tonight.
While official announcement is with
held, in order not to interfere with the
work of the commission and owing to
the desire of the French government to
allow the German delegates every possible
opportunity to make a final proposal
which might be acceptable to France
French officials talk and act as if the
plan were adopted and Frances decision
to take coercive measures against Ger
many had already been decided upon.
The war office also is very busy and
is in constant communication with Cen
eral Degoutte's headquarters at Mayence;
large movements of troops were reported
from Nancy, Metz and the Rhineland and
there seemed to be no doubt in the minds
of officials generally that the occupation
of the Ruhr was a foregone conclusion
should the commissions decision go
against France.
Herr Schroeders propositions to the
commission are described as, absolutely
unacceptable" Premier Poincare had a
long conference tonight with NJ Viviani
and the minister of finance, M De Las
teyrie. Later he received Andre Le-
fevere, former minister of war, most
persistent advocate of the adoption of
strong measures toward Germany.
NJ. Lefevere appeared in great spirits
as he emerged from the Poineare cabinet.
Our only chance to get anything from
Germany, he said "is for us to go and
take it. This is what have been preach
ing since the signing of the peace treaty.
viii prevail"
Whether the French parliament will be
convened in extraordinary session will
be decided at meeting of the counsel
Of ministers Friday. but it appears that
the French people throughout the coun-
try are solidly behind the government,
with, the exception Of the communists and
socialists, and approve the punitive
measures which the government adopt.
Since the return of NJ. Poincare from
London, members of the cabinet have
been busy every Sunday unveiling monu-
ments to the war dead in many of the
large cities especially those occupied by
the Germans during the war. The min
listers have promised the people that Ger
many would atone for the harm done and
the resnIt has been that resolutions Of
approval have been adopted practically
by all the departments of France and
sent 10 the premier urging him - take
action
