the name of Salvestrini. Shortly
Rfterward the police entered and took

Claim Plot Hatched in France
Excitement was still at a high
pitch today as additional details Of the
widespread ramifications of the as
sassination plot came to light. Order,
however, reigned throughout the en-
tire country.
Messaggero, semi-off1cial newspaper,
prints a detailed report designed to
prove that the plot was hatched in
France by antiFascisti. assisted by
friends of other than italian nation
ality.
Indeed, says the Messaggero. sub
scripttons were raised and supported
by the Left French newspapers for
what was called a liberty loan" the
object being to rid Italy of Mussolini
and Fascismo.
The paper declares the Italian gov
ernment protested to France against
permitting such journalistic support
OF what Italy looked upon as a sub
rersive project.
Big Organization Alleged.
According to the Messaggero's ac-
count, there existed, first, an organ
Ization Of information bureaus in
Paris for the dissemination Of anti
Italian reports throughout France
and elsewhere; second, an organiza-
ton Of military bands ready to at
tempt a coup at an opportune mo-
ment, and third, an organization for
gathering funds with which to carry
out the plan against the Fascist re-
gime.
Gen. Capello, the paper alleges, was
the connecting link between these or
canizations in Paris and the circles
opposing the government in Italy.
The rifle with which Zaniboni was
armed when arrested was any Austrian
military weapon similar ITO those
which picked rif1emen used for sharp
shooting during the World War. 1t

WASHINGTON, Oct. II. -
(Special) millions of dollars
of the peoples money has been
squandered by the army and
navy in so-called aircraft devel-
opment, according to charges
made today by Chairman Mad
den of the House Appropriations
committee, congressman from
Illinois.
In purposedly meaningless.
and endless experimental orgy,
IN technical aircraft develop
ment, the army and navy are
charged by Chairman Madden
with squandering many millions.
The aircraft investigation, both
now and last spring, have aroused
the country and, according to some
government officials, the lid was to
be placed on any further exposures,
1t being feared that public opinion
already had been aroused in favor
of separate department of avia-
ton.
Chairman Madden's statement to-
day undoubtedly will add fuel to a
fire already too hot for those in GER
tain quarters.
Coming as it does, from the head
OF the all-powerful appropriations
committee, the statement has Gre
ated a sensation in Washington.

SHOWS GREAT
CROP INCREASE
w. T. Persons Report On Sum.
ter County Ginning Shows
Large Increase Over "a

Sumter county is more than seven
thousand bales of ginned cotton
ahead of her 1924 record for the
same period.
Up to Oct I. this year the gins
for this county had turned out 49,
965 bales of cotton, At the same
9ime last year the third richest
agricultural county in the union
had ginned but 1929 bales.
According to these figures the
county is now 1912 bales ahead of
1924. However, the extraordinarily
early heavy crop must be taken in
to consideration.
The above figures were given the
Times Recorder this morning by w.
7. Persons, county representative
of the Federal Department Of Ag-
riculture, Bureau of Crop Stats
ties. -.--.-.-..y ~
Before seeing these figures one
of the best posted cotton men in
the county stated to the Times-Re-
corder that Sumter's crop this year
will undoubtedly exceed last years
crop, totalling not less than $4,000
bales.
He also stated that, while the
market had broken in the last few
days, it should be remembered that
most cotton already in the ware
houses had been sold previous to
the crack following the governm.e nt
report last week.
Cotton now coming into the ware
house to an extent, will be classed
as low grade staple because of the
damage suffered from recent rains.
Authorities generally agree that
the crop has been cut short at least
thousand bales because Of the
above mentioned rain.

TOBACCOSALES

DUKE MEMORY
For Twenty Minutes Industry
VIII Cease Operations In
Every Warehouse in South

DANVILLE, Va, Oct. IA. B,
arlington, president of the Tobac-
co Association Of the United States
oday requested that every tobacco
market now running in the South
Iern States to cease all sales for ten
minutes Tuesday morning at 1890
o'clock, in respect to James b. Duke,
the tobacco magnate, who died at
his New York home Saturday night,
after an illness of several weeks
which was preceded by a nervous
and physical breakdown.
In one of his statements before
his death Mr.. Duke said his passing
would have no effect on the future
of his varied interests, as all were
in good hands.
ror several years Mir. Duke had
not taken an active part in the con-
duct of the many enterprises in
which he was interested. Actual
management was entrusted TO men
he had trained, although he fire.
quently went to his New York of
flee and kept in close touch with
j business matters.
Mr.. Duke always maintained
! close relations with the farmers
whose products he purchased. In
! his early years as a tobacco manu-
facturer he instructed his buyers to
pay the farmers enough for their
crops to assure them a living not
withstanding market conditions.
He became extensively interested
in the development of hydro-electric
power and established large plants
in sections of his native state Of
North Carolina.
Recently he spent large sums in
an effort to discover a method of
producing of cheap fertilizer for the
benefit Of the farmers.
Last year he established the Duke
foundation, setting aside 100000
900. By its terms Trinity College
at Durham, N. c., changed its name
to Duke University. and an active
program of expansion was begun.
James Buchan Duke was born
in 1856 near Durham, N. c., and
received his education in the coun-
try schools.
