dJPSWING REFLECTS
!. DEBTS CUT HOPES
-
Reaction Linked With Past
Declines When Chances
for Accord Faded.
BY DIR. MAX WINKLER.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 14-Strange
though it may seem, the prospects OF an
adjustment at an early date CT the
irtergovernmental obligations have been
followed by an impressive rise in secur-
tiles and commodities prices, just as de-
clines almost invariably Sc in whenever
s1she chances Of settlement OF war debts
assume less promising aspect.
Without questioning the SoundneSs OF
the view OF those who maintain that
political debts are in no way different
from other types of indebtedness and
should consequently be discharged in
full, the fact remains that the request
by Great Britain and other European
debtors for the extension Of the Hoover
moratorium and the likelihood that the
request will be granted was followed by
g material advance in the price Of COM
-znoditieS, notably wheat and cotton. and
san equally material rise in securities,
both bonds and stocks
Incidentally the gain scored by the
above two commodities alone has added
to the value Of the supply in the United
States a sum almost equal to the
amount due the country on account OF
war debts.
1t would appear desirable as we'll as
good policy to grant the applied for ex-
tension and take up the question OF war
debts at the forthcoming international
conference with a view to settling dell
nitely one Of the most important prob
lens arising from the cataclysm OF
decade and half ago.

Kreuger Bonds Come to Life.

Little is heard these days about
Kreuger g. Tou and the sensational
losses sustained by investors every
where, but toward the end OF last
week the so-called secured per cent
bonds came to life, registering an over
night advance Of almost 1872 per cent
on an increased turnover. A rumor
that the Swedish principal subsidiary
will not request an extension Of the
moratorium is said to be responsible for
the rise.
Careful analysis leads to the rejec-
ton of this explanation. While the po-
sition of the bonds has changed, such
change has been for the worse, because
an issue of Yugoslav bonds, amounting
TO $4,000, 900, which comprises part CT
the security for the Kreuger g. Toll 5s,
will in all probability default Decem+
Der /.
Although these bonds are not traded
IN on any market, on the basis of ex-
isting quotation for other Yugoslav
issues, they may be appraised at hardly
more than is cents on the dollar, re-
ducing to that extent the value OF the
collateral securing the Kreuger bonds

$4,000, 900 Loss Shown.

Although New York Central sue
ceeded, in September, in covering taxes
and charges by slight margin (about
S2.5oO), the net loss for the tirst
nine months amounted to almost
s15,5OO 900. In the corresponding
period last year, Central reported 30
.cents a share on about 5,000,O0O Shares
-cf stock outstanding. While It Is
hoped and expected that there Will be
no interruption or delay in the service
on the roads obligations, it would seem
that resumption Of disbursements on
the common is long way OF.
Attention has been directed on
numerous occasions to the caution
which should be exercised by investors
In regard to new commitments when
the stock market Is replete with In
consistencies.
Standard Gas and Electric is one OF
these. The common stock, paying 81
annually, is quoted to yield in excess
of II per cent, while the various pre-
ferred issues, including the 81, Sc and
81 stocks, yield at current quotations
more than IA per cent.
The 6 per cent bonds Of the system,
due in 1885, give the abnormally high
return of % per cent to maturity ana
a current yield Of about 10 per cent
Inasmuch as the dividend on the
funior securities is reported earned by
an adequate margin, it seems that
either the preferred stocks and the
bonds, especially the latter, are selling
too low or the common Is quoted too
high.
II is anomalies of this kind which
suggest that rallies are still to large
extent technical in character.

LlOyd's Agent Stays
Burch's COrn-Fed Hog
Commission May Have to
Be Called in ito Make Settlement

Moody Lloyd, Robert Burch,
and three other citizens had five
hogs in a pen on the north edge
of town near the NJ. c. S. Noble
suburban estate. The pen was
divided into five sections, and
each man fed his own hog
AS the holiday season drew
near, Mr.. Lloyd's thoughts dwelt
more and more upon spare
ribs and sausage. In fact. he
thought about them so much
that he found himself fairly
watering at the mouth. So he
called in a Negro acquaintance
Tuesday morning and instructed
him to go to the pen and kill his
hog. He described the animal
in such complimentary terms
that the Negro, arriving at the
pen, chose for slaughter the
best-looking one of the tenants,
This one was promptly despatch
ed and carted to the Lloyd home.
A little while later Mr. Burch,
visiting the pen with a bucket
of corn, discovered that his own
hog was gone Blood and scraps
of hair on the ground told
plainly enough what had hap
pened.
This newspapers source Of in
formation-i. e. the assembled
personnel of the Carolina Barber
Shop-says that Mr. Lloyd pro-
posed to deliver the slain hog to
Mr.. Burch and call it square.
The objection to this was that
Mr.. Lloyd's was an ordinary
slops-fed hog, while Mr.. Burch's
had been carefully and abund-
antly fed on selected corn. Mr..
Burch held that his hog was of
better quality and was also
heavier.

may have to be called in TO-, fix
the terms of settlement.

Consolidation

To the Editor:
This presents a point Of view
opposite to the one advanced in
your editorial of December 18th

You heard nobody but Cover

enthusiasm" about Consolida-
ton; you seem to regard the
whole effort as futile; and you
recommend that it stop with
the consolidation of the boards
of trustees, though how that
alone would get anywhere, you
don't tell us. We notice that
this attitude is quite different
from the one held by the Ad-
miniStration from the first, to
judge by the statement Of Presi-
dent Graham before the House

KhattuSil Wounded
By a Rival Suitor
Harlands' Cat. Named for Hittite
King, Has to Go to Hospital

When Khattusil, the J. p. Har-
lands Persian cat, came into
the dining room to receive his
morning caresSeS one day last
week, he bore the signs of a
violent night. His fur was dis
arranged, his right ear was bit
ten, one of his forelegs was
bruised, and he walked with a
limp.
The cat is named for a Hittite
king of about 400 B. c. Mr..
Harland, who teaches archaeol-
ogy in the University, does not
ordinarily countenance recogni-
ton of any person who lived later
than 1000 B. G. But Khattu-
sil's, the Hittite's, magnificent
military exploits and his tri-
umphs as administrator, diplo-
mat, palace builder, and organ
izer of one of the greatest ha-
rems of all B. c., so fascinated
him that when it came to nam
ing his kitten he went modern
with a bang.
The Harlands thought their pet
must have had an encounter with
a dog, and they prayed it would
mt happen again. But the next
morning khattusil was in worse
shape than ever His other ear
and another leg We're wounded,
and his face was scratched. DR..
Nathan, summoned by tele-
phone, came in an automobile to
take him to the cat dog hos
|pltal.
Il have just called on another
tom-cat, all battered up, in this
neighborhood," said DR.. Nathan.
1T looks as if your cat and Mr.
Ericson's must have been in a
fight"
The neighborhood's assump-
tion Is that the Harland and the
Ericsson cats were rival suitors.
The identity of the third party
in the triangle is unknown.

End Pay Cut in Effect
IS Per Cent Topped OFF Salaries
OF University Employees

A cut of Is per cent in the pay
of faculty members and other
persons on the University pay
roll, in addition to the 10 per
cent cut with which the fiscal
year began July !, is announced
by President Graham.
The first cut was made in COM
pliance with law enacted by
the last legislature. The second
is the result of the 80 per cent
reduction, in the expenditures of
all state departments and insti-
tutions, decreed by the state
budget bureau.
The Budget Bureaus reduc-
ton was applied by the Univer-
sity, as far as possible, to ex-
penditures other than salaries,
but, when the possibilities of
saving on the library, equip
ment, supplies, and miscellan-
eOus services were exhausted,
then salaries had to come again
under the axe.

Is the Town Liable?
Question of Responsibility for Ne
gro's Death Still Unsettled

The question of whether or
not the town of Chapel Hill is
liable for compensation for the
death of the Negro, Guy Snipes,
who was killed recently while
digging gravel for the streets,
is still unsettled.
His heirs have retained Vic
tor Bryant of Durham to press
their claim, and Mr.. Bryant has
asked the authorities here for
information about the accident.
Snipes was one of the men
paid out of the emergency re-
lief fund allotted by the federal
government to this county and
was not on the municipal pay
roll. The town is protected by
employers liability insurance
and so would not suffer any i'm
mediate loss even if it were held
liable; but it would lose in the
future because it's insurance
premiums would be raised by a
large percentage
Bonner Sawyer, the town at
torney, has expressed the opin-
ion that the town is not liable.
Town Manager Caldwell said
yesterday: ut seems to me that
the relief organization that
turns men over to us, to be put
to work, ought to find some way
to relieve us definitely of respon-
sibility for any accidents that
may happen to them"
There has been no determina-
ton, by the federal government
or the state industrial commits
sion, as to where lies RESPONSE
bility for injury or death suffer
ed by a man receiving employ
ment from a relief agency.

VILLAGE SMITTEN
BY SNOW STORM
AND BITTER COLD
Hard, Dry Surface Ideal for
COasting, and Children
Have Splendid Sport
MOTORISTS IN DISTRESS

For seven days now the
ground in Chapel Hill has been
covered with snow.
The fall began last Friday af-
ternoon. and continued through
the night. The flakes had none
of that hesitant, tender quality
that they often have in our
Southern climate; they were
hard and gritty; driven by a
stiff wind, they stung the face
and penetrated cruelty into ears,
eyes, and neck; and they froze
into sheet of ice upon the
automobile windshield.
1t was an ideal snow for sled
ding, because the freezing tenn
perature kept it dry and hard.
1t was great fun for the child
ren, and it was a perfect an
sWer to prayer because it was
ready for them on the Saturday
holiday. They got their sleds
out of attics and closets, and all
through the day they were
coasting on the hills in and
around the village and were pull
ing each other, or were being
pulled by their parents, along the
streets and roads. The sport
was just as fine Sunday and
Monday, for the weather stayed
cold. One Of the most favored
coasting places was the hill ris-
ing up from the stage of the
Forest Theatre in Battle Park,
where the audience sits when a
play is given there.
The main street presented a
lively spectacle-University stu
dents on sleds hitched to cars
and gliding over the hard-pack-
ed snow at a speed never dream
ed by the sleighers of olden
days. Many Of the sleds were
make-shift creations, crude run
ners with planks nailed across
them. Nearly every one had a
mattress on it, and anywhere
from two to six passengers ar
ranged in layers.

]. c. Lane, the dairyman,
known to his friends as Red
Lane; Jo-Buck Dawson, the
grocer; and Tom Ray went out
hunting wild turkeys. one day
last week, in the woods to the
south of Chapel Hill along the
Chatham-Orange county line.
What you want to do to make
sure to get a shot at wild turkeys
is to take tame ones with you as
decOys,' Mr.. Dawson had said to
his companions when they were
planning. the hunt And SO two
tame turkeys were loaded into
the car along with the shotguns,
and were carried in the arms of
the hunters after the car had
been parked on a side road lead
ing from the Pittsboro highway.
One of the decoys was teth-
cred to a tree, in the woods on
the Poythress farm, and the
other to another tree a few
hundred feet away. The hunt
ers concealed themselves and
waited for their prey.
At about this time Coy Poyth-
ress started out from his home
for a nearby crossroads store.
He took his gun with him, on
the chance that he might come
upon some wild game-turkey,
or quail, or rabbits, or squirrels.
He was striding along a woods
