SMYRNA AMERICAN LEGION

Preparing for Annual Armistice Day
Supper-F'ine Program in Store
The advance preparations for the
Annual Armistice Supper to be given
by the David C. Harrison Post, No. IA,
American Legion, Smyrna, on Thurs-
day evening, November 8th, are il the
final stages of completion. Owing to
the unceasing efforts of the Post Sup
per Committee, and the most gener-
Gus support the Post Ladies' Aux
iliary has rendered, the prospects Of
success are very bright. Not only
have these two units functioned in a
most satisfactory manner, but tine APP
parent fact, which is indeed most
gratifying to those of the David G.
Harrison Post, is that the community
at large seems to have extended the
helping hand most generously when
called upon for their assistance. There
are many times throughout the Post
Year when the local Legionnaires be-
come bit despondent over complica
tions arising from the ambulance ser
vice they are rendering the public.
Also there are times when it would
seem that their whole-hearted, unself-
ISL efforts are received only as "a
matter of course" therefore it is
most comfortable and agreeable feel
ing to know that there yet remains
goodly number Of people in our com
munity who are ready and willing to
serve when called upon to do so by the
members of the local post. It is hop
ed that this kind of support will con
tinue through the evening Of Novem-
Der 9th, and that the public viii en-
10y with those Of the David G. Harri-
son Post the knowledge that "Their
Bit" helped materially in making this
Armistice Supper the most successful
one on record. In coming, all are as
sured good supper and the sincere
gratitude Of the Local post members
for their support. True service may
be dimmed by passing years, but il IL

Meeting Refuse To
Support, Thinking
He Is Smith Man

BEAUMONT, Tex. May 21.-F-
aHarnony" democrats supporting
Governor Dan Moodys program "a
n dry delegation 70 the national con
vention uninstructed as 70 candi
dates. agreed today on w. r. Dear
of Huntsville, n former state sen.
ator and author Of the stringent Tex
~ prohibition law. as their candidate
fer chairman of the stata
democratic convention
This DEVELOPMENT came as m sur
mise shortly before the meeting OF
the state democratic executive CON-
mittee, which was delayed until III
A.. M. to approve a temporary con-
vention roll and rule on the disputed
basis Of representation.
State Senator Thomas B. Love Of
Dallas, chief Of the ultra-dry anti
Smith group, one Of the three fac.
tons bidding for control Of tha
convention, said that he would not
vote for Dean for temporary chair
man. He expressed the belief that
Dean Is secretly supported for the
most BY the Smith-for-president fac
ton. Loves group has intended TO
support Cone Johnson for the tenn
norary presiding chair, but Johnson
was understood to be on the fence
between the Moody and Love fac
tions today. Johnson could not be
reached for a statement.
The executive COMMITTEES meeting
was called 70 prepare q temporary
roll and recommend one OF the two
rival delegations from Wichita, Smith
and Falls counties for seats I'm tire
convention. The committee also ex-
pected to settle whether the basis or
county representation would be on
the last general election guber-
material vote or on the primary vote.
National Committeeman Jed @.
Adams of Dallas and former Cover
nor William p Hobby of Houston
were leading efforts TO have the Tex
ms delegation instructed for Jesse
n. Jones of Houston for vice presi-
dent.
G. G. Rentfro of Dallas, secretary
Of the uninstructed delegation. said
he planned to wire the u S. SEN
ate campaign fund investigating COM
mittee asking investigation Of alleg-
ed Ku Klux Khan expenditures in
Texas against the candidacy Of Gov
error Smith Of New York.
Chairman u. w. Wilcox OF the
executive committee discounted any
effort TO name more than eight
delegates az large from Texas.
Prospects for a compromise be-
tween the Love and Moody factions
seemed slim today.

COTTON Up ON
FIRST TRADES
Net Gain of 20 to 22
Points Registered
On Cable, Map

NEW ORLEANS. May 21-CR-The
cotton market was steady in ear
trading today, advancing approxi-
xaately $1.25 a bale wei Saturdays
closing quotations on buying induced
by general gains in the belt over
Sunday.
First trades showed gains Of 7 TO
~ points in response to favorable
Liverpool cables. The demand in
creased soon after the start when
the weather map indicated that pre-
cipitation had been general over the
cotton region during the weekend
and July contracts traded to 2090,
October 2075 and December 206s, or
p to 25 points net up.
Towards the end of the first hour
the market was steady and near the
highs with trading moderate.
Tn higher prices brought out real
1zing and some selling for a reaction.
October traded off to 20.50 and De-
cember to 20.55, or Is to Is points be-
low the highs but still 10 points over
Saturdays close. When the offerings
were absorbed some fresh buying de-
veloped and prices recovered 5 to 5
points. At mid-session the market
was quiet Blu tsteady.

Of further drought damage west

followed by material setbacks all
around.
Corn and bats were also easy, with

NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, May 21-(P-The cot
Ton market opened steady at an ad-
vance Of 7 TO 10 points and soon
showed net advances Of Is TO 26
points on covering or rebuying by
recent sellers and some commission
house demand promoted by relatively
steady cables and reports Of unset
tied weather in the South.
July sold up to 21.14 and October
to Pills but these prices attracted
considerable realizing, with reactions
of 8 or 9 points from the best by
the end of the first hour.
Trading became quiet later IN the
morning. There was some telling
on the improved western belt ore
cast, but nervousness over the YEA
ther and crop position generally
gave evidence that offerings were
chiefly realizing. The market At
midday showed reaction of some ID
10 IL points from the best prices of
the morning, but the one was re-
ported steady at net advance of Ii
TO II points.
