TEXTILE MEN CUT
PRODUCTION TOTAL
CurtaiIment Is Orderly Effort
to Prevent SurpIuSes,
Leader SAYS.

RT the Associated Press.
GASTONIA, N C., January "a
The present curtaiIment programs
being carried out in various branches
Of the textile industry are orderly steps
on the part Of mill men in conforming
TO the law Of supply and demand,
Walker D. Hines Of New York, presi-
dent OF the Cotton Textile institute
explained in an address here today to
100 or more combed-yarn manufac-
iurers of CASTOR and surrounding
counties.
The curtailments. Mr. Hines said
were initiated to ward off a more
serious situation. and indicated moth
ing more. he said, than an organized
effort on the part Of the manufacturers
to cope with conditions in the most
effective manner.
Pointing TO slight oVerproduction
in the industry. Mr.. Hines declared
that mill owners had their choice o:
bringing their production in line with
demand by acting promptly In an
orderly manner or of adopting dis
orderly and much more injurious
methods II action were postponed.
The textile head asserted that failure
TO keep production in line with demand
would result in an overhanging
surplus which would break prices TO
point below the production cost.

NOW SEEMS FINAL
Members of Congress Have
Faint Hope for Game After
Seeing Coolidge.

BY the Associated Press.
Efforts Of interested members OF Con-
gress to obtain renewal Of foot ball
relations between the Naval Academy
and West Point appeared last night TO
have been fruitless.
Following a visit by Representative
Britten, Republican. Illinois, and Rep
resentative Fish, Republican New York
to the White House. during which the
break was discussed, Britten announced
that he hoped President Coolidge might
act, or at least express his views, on the
disruption which threatens the annual
Navy Army clash.
The attitude of Mai Gen. E. w.
Winans, West Point superintendent. was
characterized as "high-handed" by Fish.
who condemned Winans' refusal TO
meet Rear Admiral Mutton. Naval
Academy superintendent. in New York
TO discuss a compromise.
THE talk of equality OF opportunity
in all activities by the friends OF West
Point" said Fish. lis sheer buncombe
The freshman or plebe rule is already
in effect at West Point. which in itself
violates every principle which the su-
perintendent says cannot be compro-
missed. I did not serve two years in the
Army as an officer in the war without
learning that there Is no such funda :
mental thing as equality in the Army. '

of ireland this white clover grows even
more luXuriantly than II does In this
country because of the mild, moist
Gulf Stream climate
But second clover disputes the
honor. This is the so-called black
clover or nonesuch. also very abundant
in Ireland. Its leaves are smaller and
narrower than those OF the white clover
and its flowers mark 1t as a relative
OF the sweet clovers and alfalfa
The third claimant for recognition
as the true shamrock Is not a clever
at all, though It has trifoliate leaf
This is the wood sorrel or oxalis. Like
its two rivals. the oXalis grows in many
other parts of the world besides Ire
land. but finds the climate OF that
favored island very much to It's liking
Perhaps because OF its sharp. sour taste
the oxaiis used TO have wide use In
folk medicine, and some of the ancient
herbals attributed almost miraculous
curative powers To 1t.
The whole difficulty seems to have
arisen out of the nomenclatural meth
DDS of ancient and medieval herbaliSts
who named plants not according to
their flower structure, as modern hot
anists do. but rather according to their
leaves. They classified such unlike
things as holly and live oaks together
because both trees have hard, thick
leaves Thus any plant with a clover
like trifoliate leaf would be called a
