TENNESSEE AND N, c.
PLAN COOPERATIVE
BUILDING Of ROADS

ASHEVILLE, N. c., July THE
state of Tennessee wants to agree
on a general cooperative road build
ing program with North Carolina
with the view of connecting the
highway systems OF the two states,
according to Governor Austin Peay
of the former commonwealth, who
is in Asheville today with highway
experts. to confer with Governor
Morrison and highway officials of
this state.
Governor Peay authorized the
statement that this in a general way
is the purpose of his visit to North
Carolina. 1t developed today that
South Carolina may be brought into
similar arrangement making the
affair a three-state cooperative
proposition.
Advices received from Columbia
S. c., state that Charles o. Hearon
and A. B. Langley of the South
Carolina state highway commission
will come here to confer with the
highway officials on the subject.
Charles H. Moorefield, state highway
engineer OF South CarODna, prODaDly
will accompany them, as will also
Thomas H. Macdonald, of Washing.
ton, chief of the United States
bureau of roads. 1t was predicted
that as a result of conferences some.
thing definite will be worked out to-
wards a general cooperative plan of
linking up the highways of all three
states.
Governor Peay also said that Ten
nessee has a prospective road build
ing program in view, and it is with
the further purpose of arriving at
some idea of just how large to
make it and what the cost should
be, that he and his officials came
to study the North Carolina high.
way system.
A proposition was before the Ten
nessee Legislature this year provid-
ing for a $4,000, 900 bond issue for
additions to the highway system of
that state, but it did not have the
sanction OF the governor and failed
of passage.
A similar proposition may come
before the 1925 session, according to

NEGROES IN NORTH
FIND JOBS SCARCE,
INQUIRY REVEALS

Unskilled negro labor is a drug on
the market in Detroit, Mich, and
negroes who are migrating there
from the south are meeting with
grievous disappointment, not only as
regards employment, but in the
way of finding means of subsistence,
according to kilograms received in
Atlanta from the department of pub
lie welfare Of Detroit. Housing con-
ditions are very bad, says a tele-
gram from T. F. Dolan, general
superintendent of the department,
and if the period of unemployment
continues, unskilled negro laborers
will be in dire straits.
Similar situations exist in Phila-
delphia, Pa, and in ST. Louis, Mo-,
according to kilograms received from
non-sectarian, non-partisan chart
table organizations like the asso-
ciated charities of this city.
The kilograms were received in
answer to wire inquiry from the

in the north, east and middle west
Three of the kilograms received in
answer to this query are as follows:
'Unskilled colored labor is drug

ent time. New arrivals are finding 1t
difficult to obtain employment. Hous-
ing conditions are very bad. New ar

at excessive prices. If period of I'M
employment continues unskilled
colored labor will be in dire straits.
City is not financed to take care of
an influx of southern negroes or
non-residents of any class.

|. LINCOLN SHERIFF
AND DEPUTY SENT
TO FULTON TOWER

WASHINGTON, Ga, July S.-The
latest development in the shooting
of the Guitars brothers in Lincoln
ton, on the Fourth of July, by Sher-
if Wylie Harrison and Deputy r. L.
Burgess, is an order issued by Judge
E. T. Shurley, of the Toombs circuit,
removing the officers from the Gus
tody of Sheriff George Walton to
the Tower in Atlanta. Since Wednes-
day night the Lincoln county Off
GERS have been in the custody of
Wilkes county sheriff, George
Walton.
Sheriff Walton prevailed upon
Sheriff Harrison to come to Wash
ington the night of the shooting as
a precautionary measure, the Wilkes
county officers and several deputies
having gone to Lincolnton shortly
after the trouble at the request of
the authorities there. Friday a war
rant was placed in the hands of Mr..
Walton charging Harrison and Burg
ess with murder, and since that
time the Lincolnton county officers
have been prisoners of Sheriff
Walton.
There have been a good many
rumors of friends of the Guitars
| coming to Washington to take the
Lincoln county officers away from
Mr.. Walton, and, while neither
Sheriff Walton nor anyone else in
Washington believe such thing
would happen, Judge Shurley
thought it advisable to take the
| responsibility of the safekeeping of
the men off the hands of Wilkes
county's officials and issued the
| order transferring the men to At
lanta. Messrs. Harrison and Bur-
CESS left Washington about four
o'clock Saturday for Atlanta in
charge of Sheriff Jeff SturdiYant,

MI. Harding went 70 Alaska for

chief executive. Had he gone to
Panama, Hayti or the Philippines
the outcome would have been the
zane. Local problems, industrial,

ground, il the time to get things
settled Every smouldering dis
pute il famed to flames.
Most insistcnt is the demand for
moving the territorial capital. Ju-
nsau, set halfway down the south
eastern peninsula, is accessi-
BILE from the United States than
from the interior of Alaska. An
choragc and Seward are clamoring
for the honor-and the business
Anchorage with n fair harbor and
railroad facilities, Seward with a
deep water harbor and the railway
terminal but limited in space for
city growth. If Mr.. Harding does
not give his opinion it will not be
for lack of opportunity.
Nor is the questiGn as simple as
it might appear to outsiders. Link
ed with it are charges of misman-
agement of the government rail
way. charges of Guggenheim manip-
ulation, of a Guggenheim plot to
build up Anchorage into a capital,
displacing Juneau. charges that the
department Of the interior has been
duped by the Guggenheims into con-
sidsring a consolidation scheme Of
administration which would further

these complications comes the case

the Alaskan railroad and has been
relieved of duty just as the project

said being due to army politics.

BOBBY JONES ExPLODS
FALLACY

Old men looked up when jess
willard came back to the prize ring
an the shady side of forty. Not
since Norman Brooks tossed a vic
torious racquet had there been such
conscious pride in age. When Mr..
Willard endorsed Floyd johnson
graybeards in these United States
probably began to hop around and
take violent exercise Some limited
darkly that eighteen strokes to =
man Of seventy was a golfing insult.
Senior Firpo almost checked these
flights of fancy. Still we wer I'M
convinced. After all, the Argentine
brought crude, drippinsly raw
youth to . young mans game. Mr..
Wizards was the superior science
by analysis.
Now comes all the natural inso-
lence of youth in the person of
Bobby Jones and snatches from a
host Of scanned and corded hands
the crown of American golf. This
too in a sport known as IAN old
mans game" Youth had cracked
at Inwood in the tie play. and the
boards were again poised for flight.
Yet there were things in Mr.. Jones'
young heaven and earth undreamed
of in older mems psychology. He
came back stronger in the playoff
and fired a shot from the rough to
the green which old men heard
round the world.
Analyses fail at this point. In
five years, which he had the eff
frontery to commence at the age OF
seventeen, Mr.. Jones ran fourteen
strokes ahead Of his nearest com.
petitor as the master stylist OF
American championship play. He
has temperament, strength, nerve,
imagination-all the crude guess
work of youth and all the grabbed
science of age. At twenty-one he
rules the old men at their OWE
game.
Golf Is no different from the
rest, 1t seems. 1t also is a game al
which youth excels and old mer
play.
