COUNTY MILK LAW
CHANGES UNLIKELY
Proposed Hearing Would Have

DIR. v. L. Ellicott. Montgomery County
health officer, declared here today that
it is unlikely any changes in the
county milk laws win result from the
public hearing being sought by indie

1.-THE provisions Of the county milk
laws are unlikely to be changed, since
each regulation Is necessary to the
health of the county" he declared.
The regulations were drawn up by
Farmers Committee, using the stand
ard milk ordinance of the United States
Public Health Department as a basis,
and three-fourths Of the county's $50
milk dealers have already complied with
all the regulations.
The amount needed for equipment
ranges from nothing to $3.50, depending
upon the amount of equipment already
installed. A change in the regula-
tons, in addition to being dangerous to
public health, would be manifestly un-

moves TO ABANDON
SUGAR-BUY|NGPLAN
Farm Administration Admits
Failure of Efforts to
Divide Market.
BY the Associated Press.

Abandonment of efforts to reach an
agreement on dividing the American
sugar market among producing nations
was advocated yesterday by farm ad-
ministration advisers unless the con-
tending factions arrive at solution
among themselves.
Interests affected by the recommends
tion included Cuban producers, who
would have been permitted under a
quota arrangement to export 100000
tons annually to the United States.
Others were the beet sugar growers
in Colorado and other Western States
insular possessions, the Virgin Islands,
Puerto Rico and the Philippine Islands.
The domestic beet sugar producers
have held cut strongly for weeks against
the clause in the proposed agreement
that their output be limited to ,525 900
tons yearly. They also took a positive
stand against any limitation whatever
on their product.
President Watches Situation.
President Roosevelt has kept closely
in touch with the sugar conference, in
view of the turmoil in Cuba and the
effort he is directing to bring political
and economic peace to the island
Weeks of work and worry were repre-
sented in the tentative agreement
which was virtually abandoned yester-
day unless an unforeseen compromise is
reached
The farm administration could 60
ahead and try to get an arrangement
which would stabilize the sugar market
despite the conclusions of the experts,
including its own members. but that
was regarded as extremely unlikely.
DR.. John Lee Coulter of the Tariff
Commission, who was borrowed by the
Farm Administration to advise on the
sugar problem, joined A. A. Berle, jr,
one of the professional group close to
President Roosevelt; Thomas M. Wood
ward of the Farm Administration, pre-
siding officer at the hearings, and
Thomas Blaisdell of the administration,
in telling George N. Peek, farm act ad-
ministrator, that further negotiations
were useless unless the situation
changed.
Run Into Difficulties.
They said the negotiators all avowed
they wanted an agreement, but "the
sworn evidence in the record discloses
such disagreement and the record in
cludes such extravagant claims from
many interests" that the administration
should not attempt to revise the pro-
posed agreement.
They also said a public hearing set
for next Wednesday on supplementary
phases of the basic agreement should
be called off
The quota arrangement was the heart
of the agreement. It would have given
Hawaii market in the United States
for 5000 tons of sugar: Puerto Rico
875,000: the Philippine Islands, 955 800;
Louisiana. 250,000 tons, and Florida,
10000 tons.
In 1919 Cuba exported 3,612,6s3 tons
of sugar to the United States. The
tariff on Cuban sugar was raised to 2
cents pound in 1880 and Cuban ex-
ports in 1882 were 1,762 ,000
The domestic beet growers asserted
that any lowering of the tariff or sub
stantial expansion in the amount of
Cuban sugar shipped to the United
States would mean the ruin of the do
meStic industry

Famous Composer and Organist viii
Perform in Hill Music Hall

Ralph Deane Shure, noted
American composer and organ
ist, will play recital IN the
Hill Music hall at $3.50 next
Wednesday evening, November
IS. The concert is sponsored by
Pm Mu Alpha, music fraternity,
for the benefit of the Universe
ty Glee Club. A small admis-
sion fee will be charged.
Shure's program represents
new and interesting music. 1t is
entitled "Through Palestine" and
is based on scenes in the Holy
Land with Riblical quotations as
a guide to the listeners ear The
music is modern in structure
and impressionistic in its emo
tiOnal essence.
This program was broadcast
over an international hook k~up
from Palestine last Easter on
the occasion Of a famous cere-
mony there. AS a result Of this,
Shure will got to Palestine next
August to play it himself, fill
ing a number of European en-
gagements on the same tour
In bringing Shure here Phi
Mu Alpha is beginning new
venture that the fraternity
hopes to make permanent. For
the last two years they have
brought an international artist
here and expect to do so again
this winter. But in addition to
this single presentation, the
group now proposes to bring in
one or two Well-knOWn and
thoroughly proven American
musicians every season. The
music department hopes that
the reception accorded to Shure
will justify continuation of
this plan. Tickets are on sale
at the department office.

Guinea Glides Away
Fowl, Dropped from Plane, Volplanes
to Safety, Disappointing Boys

One of the prizes at the air
plane show recently, free ride
over Chapel Hill and the sur
rounding country, was to go to
the boy who caught the guinea
that |. NJ. Tull was to drop out
Of an airplane. A great crowd
of boys went out to the airport,
every one of them hopeful that
he would Capture the guinea.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Tull were
up about 500 feet, above the
middle of the field, Mrs. Tull
cast out the guinea, a cock of
mature age. The sight of it, a
dot against the sky, set the boys
to cheering. They ran in the
direction it seemed to be taking,
expecting it to come to earth
quickly.
But the guinea-cock-perhaps
instinct told him where liberty
lay-had no idea of coming to
earth perpendicularly. He glid-
ed, or volplaned, eastward far,
far away from the airport.
From their plane the Tulls saw
him disappear into the woods be-
yond the old Hillsboro road.
But one Of the boys, Loren
Mckinney, got a free ride, any
way, by drawing lucky num-
ber out Of a hat.

The Pay of Servants
A Suggestion Is Made by the Cen
trail Welfare Committee

The Central Welfare Commit
tee requests through George H.
Lawrence, secretary, the puoli-
cation Of the following state
ment:
/ 1T has been brought to the
, attention of the Committee that
in certain instances in Chapel
Hill Negro servants are being
paid pitifully low wages for
long hours of service. Although
it is not the intention of the
Committee to set standard
scale of pay for house servants
at this time, the Committee
recommends to the Chapel Hill
public that due consideration be
given to this situation. 1t is
suggested that if families en-
ploying servants can pay only a
portion of the wages paid two
or three years ago they should
expect only the same proportion
in hours of work. For instance
if $500 per week was paid two
years ago and the employing
family can now pay only $500,
that family should require only
haIf-time work rather than full
time.
Also, it has been reported
that occasionally a servant quits
work or refuses to work be
cause she can get a living
through the relief organization
and doesn't have to work. 1t is
recommended in this connection
that all such instances be re-
ferred to the relief office, phone
6811.
The fact that member of a
family is at work does not neces-
sarily mean that the family
should not be on the relief list.
In the event the income is in
sufficient to meet the minimum
needs of the family, supplement
tary relief may be provided"

North Carolina S
Vote

We repealists are disappoint-
ed in the outcome of the cleo
tion in this state, but we can
take comfort in rejecting that
our main objective has been
won. For, North Cardinals vote
was merely an incident in the
contest. The repeal of the 18th
Amendment was national is
sue. The necessary three fourths
of the states have declared for
repeal, and national Prohibition
will be legally dead next month.
The amendment represents an
impudent effort on the part of
a minority of the people to i'm
pose their views upon the ma
jority. 1t is an encouragement
to corruption and violence, a
charter of hypocrisy. Thank
heaven it is done for.
The size of the anti-repealist
majority in Tuesdays balloting
means that North Carolina is
committed to state Prohibition
for many years to come. De-
spite all the statements that
have been made in the last few
weeks. to the effect that this
election related only to the 18th
Amendment, it turned out to be
a referendum on the states own
policy The people who voted
against repeal did 50 not mainly
because they favored the 18th

THIS STATE GOES
AGAINST REPEAL
BY A Big MARGIN
Majority May Reach 175,000 by
the Time Ali Precincts
Have Made Reports
DECREASE IN TOTAL VOTE

North Carolina went against
the repeal of the 18th Amend
ment, in the election Tuesday,
by a. majority that the final
count will probably show to be
around 175,O00. At the pres
ent writing only eight tenths of
the 1881 precincts have report
ed, and the majority stands at
10000.
The total vote cast in North
Carolina in the Roosevelt Hoov-
er election last year was 706,-
900. The vote last Tuesday in
the precincts so far reported
was 100000. Perhaps this will
be brought up to around 450,-
900 in the final report 1t APP
pears, then, that the vote on re-
peal was about 65 per cent, or
little less than two thirds, of
the vote cast year ago.
Some Of the repeal leaders are
citing the relatively small vote
as an explanation Of the great
anti-repeal majority. They say
that the drys put out their full
strength while the vets, over
confident, and apathetic because
they knew that the question of
repeal was already settled in the
nation, stayed away from the
polls in great numbers.
One hundred and four anti
repeal delegates and 16 repeal
delegates were elected to the
convention that was turned
down by the voters and will new
er be held.
Of the more populous coun-
ties, only New Hanover and
Durham went for repeal. In
view of the dry landslide, the
result in Durham was a great
surprise, for it had been thought
that anti-repeal sentiment was
much stronger there than in
