RALEIGH, N. c., November 25.-
North Carolina, which with the excep-
ton Of highways, has applied for and
received a relative small amount of
public works projects, has displayed
considerably more enthusiasm over the
Civil Works Administration. But even
here the municipalities and State in
stitutionS seeking projects have pro-
tested with one voice that they are able
to buy none of the material.
When the Emergency Relief Admin
istration began paying wages of 80 cents
an hour there was a terrific howl from
employers who were paying far less. So
far. there has been little said about the
new wages of As cents an hour, but
such complaints are expected, although
there has been a great change of Senti-
ment as to wages within the last few
months
But taking the State as a whole, the
tobacco farmers are just now faring
better than any other group Of the
population. Results following the three
weeks tobacco holiday in September
have been even better than were antici-
pated. 1t now seems certain that an
average price of better than II cents
will be paid for the crop as compared
with an average in 1892 of 1l.3 cents,
despite the fact that the crop this year
is 80 per cent in excess Of the 1882 crop.
The result has been that the farmers
have in many instances twice as much
money as they expected to have. and
they are for the most part holding on
to it.

has been rivalry between the two men
that was more than political:
Riding the wave of Republican sue
cess in 1920 when Warren G. Harding
was the Republican candidate for the
presidency. Davis defeated Donahey for
the governorship by 10000. 1t was
the first time Donahey had ever been
defeated for public office. To be de-
feated by such crushing majority
irked him sorely. and he began at once
to prepare for a second contest with
Davis. But Davis sidestepped 1t and
did not take the nomination. Col.
Carmi A. Thompson was the Repub-
lican candidate in 1922 and was de-
feated by Donahey by 10000, but that
was cold comfort to the victor. He
wanted to measure swords with Davis
again and two years later was accom-
modated by the Republicans, who again
nominated Davis, and Gov. Donahey,
riding this time on the crest of the
Democratic tidal wave. due to Teapot

The chiefost of these are the develop

Cooper Rivers project. Long before the
Civil War, when South Carolina was
wealthy, this project was developed as
a transportation plan. 1t proposed the
letting of the waters of one large river
down about 40 feet into the waters of
another river about 20 miles distant to
give easy inland transportation. This
project, which fell into disuse and decay
following the Civil War, has been re-

project capable Of producing about 200,-
900 horsepower, almost at the doors of
Charleston, and furnishing power to
well nigh deserted lowlands, used prin-
cipally for hunting preserves and lumber
camps.
Thousands of acres of marshes will be
overflowed and some hunting preserves
now in use will be destroyed, but greater
areas for hunting and fishing will be
provided besides producing enormous
electric power which may transform
