Ia PITTSBURGH, Pa, Aug. 21.- Labor Day may bring some indica- ton of the interest the 446,000 steel workers are paying to the John L. Lewis drive to enroll them into one industrial union.
 On that day the workers will have to choose whether to attend their company sponsored picnics, as several hundred thousand did last year, or to rally at union mass meetings.
 Under the generalship of the soft spoken Phillip Murray, United Mine Worker Vice President, organizers from the steel workers organizing committee, known as the SWOC, are pressing at full speed in prep aration for the open test
 "Bdses" Oper Nation
 From his luxuriously furnished headquarters in Pittsburgh seven floors above the $50, 100000 Nation al Steel Corporation, Murray com pleted the establishment of a ser ies of nationwide "bases" of op- eration during the first month of the campaign which began shortly before July l.
 The arrangement resembles that of many civic organization drives. At the top, as commander-in- chief, is Lewis, bulky President of the miners, and chairman of the com mittee. for industrial organization. This group is comprised of 12 un- ions which have defied the craft union members of the American Federation of Labor and have pledg- ed $500,000 to finance the steel drive
 I Murray is the generalin-charge through his chairmanship of the steel workers organizing commit tee of seven, picked to represent the contributors to the fund. tss Many Organizers in Field District chiefs are in charge of strategic centers out of which be- tween 150 and 200 organizers are working under field managers
 Forty-seyen per cent of the steel workers are employed in the organ izations eastern district, 37 per cent in the midwestern and 15.0Oo in the southern area.
 The organizers, who are paid from $6 to $10 day, generally open their campaigns by passing out lit- erature to workers as they leave the mills.
 ta Preliminary to mass meetings. smaller night sessions are held at the houses of trusted union men or in the union headquarters to dis cuss specific local problems.
 Work on Local Sftuation < Considerable thought is being giv- en now to whether it would be bet ter strategy to continue the mass meetings or concentrate on the smaller gatherings.
 Organizers vary their attack ac7. cording to the local situation. In one company's mills where work CTS put in a full five-day week during the depression urge high CT rate per hour, shorter work week, and point to alleged favoritism shown by bosses to certain indiv- .ials or races.
 In some other mills where there had not been full-time employment workers are reported to owe up to $500, for which they drew on the company during hard times for food. clothing and rent.
 In such cases, organizers argue that the men should receive a min imum" pay and that past debts should be cancelled since if the men had gone on welfare rolls, like some

EROSION TRACTORS
PURCHASE ORDERED
Commissioners Underwrite
Project for Farmers of
Vance County

In a meeting at the court house.
the Vance Board of County Commits
sioners Saturday afternoon ordered
the purchase of the huge motor trac-
tor desired by farmers of the county
for erosion projects, and agreed to
underwrite the venture until fees paid
by the growers for its use amounted
to enough to defray the purchase
price.
The tractor and its equipment cost
around $4,000, but discounts for cash
reduce the price to less than 1000.
The machine will be used in ter
racing work in the county, and far
mers who have it on their lands will
pay so much for it's use. How long
it will take to pay the purchase price
was not learned. The equipment will
be in charge of the county agent S
department, which has lately added
an assistant trained in erosion con-
troll work, and who will give much of
his time to soil conservation efforts
in the county.
Purchase of the new machine has
been under advisement by the county
commissioners for some months. Ac-
tual cash for the investment will not
come out of the countys funds, it is
explained, the county merely under
writing the cost.
Aside from the tractor matter, the
commissioners transacted Saturday
only minor matters of routine relat-
ing to tax values and the like in a
few instances.

to Henderson to be wary of strangers
and to keep their automobiles locked

Anticipating hundreds of visitors in
connection with the opening of the
Henderson tobacco market Tuesday.
police officers brought to mind the
fact that a number of farmers every
year fall victims to the wiles of the
flimflammers, pick-pockets and other
types of thieves.
AS in past years, patrolmen will be
assigned to the tobacco warehouse
district to keep order, to facilitate
traffic congestion and to protect farm
ers against the activities of the So
called "leeches" who seek to rob them
Officers warned the farmers to take
particular precaution of strangers
who offer whisky as a means of MAX
ing friendship. In past years, many
farmers have been victimized through
this method of deception and robbed
of hundreds of dollars.

But at That Are Under
August, 1885, Figures
for State
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel

Raleigh, Sept. 21.-Forty fatalities
under the Sayings of 1885 to date, the
August deaths topped the July IL II,
but fell five under the hot month of
1885.
The bunch of the State Highway
Patrol that August would show a de-
cline was only half right. The killings
in August, 1885, did exceed those for
1886, but the slight decline for July,
1886, was not sustained. The report
ing service undoubtedly has revealed
scores of accidents that otherwise had
not come to light.
The August deaths on the highways
reached 81, with 687 injured and 500
accidents. For July of this year there
were IS deaths, 681 injured and 500
accidents. For August 1885, there
were 90 fatalities, 578 injured and
1913 accidents. Undoubtedly many of
last years accidents were not record
ed.
But there were 30 pedestrians slain
on the highways, and II injured. Ac-
cidents to persons walking on the
roads have much higher death rate
than other mishaps show. Automo-
bile collisions wrought 16 deaths and
800 injuries. Trains killed two and
injured Z. Horse drawn vehicles suf
fered two fatalities and Is injuries.
Fixed objects were struck for nine
deaths and so injuries, bicycles for
four fatalities and "a non-fatal acct
dents. There were "a killed and 174
injuries from accidents in which there
was no collision.
Drunk Deaths Under Speeding.
Drunks kill fewer than speeding.
There were six deaths allotted to in
toxicants and 30 accidents that did
not kill. The hit and run record was
six killed and 80 injured. Speeding
got 18 in August. Reckless drivers
killed II and injured 103. On curves
II were slain and "a injured.
For the murderous first seven
months the deaths run to COL against
GAL for the same period last year. The
record would be even better it it were
not in order to say that two months
of this year were snow and icebound
which kept cars off the roads. But
there are $4,000 more cars on the
roads now than there were last year.
And considering gasoline gallonage,
the method of determining death re-
cords. North Carolina appears to be
improving in its driving.

VANCE WOMEN TO
USE ELECTRICITY
Mrs. McKimmon Tells Of
Service to Rural Resi-
dents Here
By DIR. JANE S. M'KIMMON.

The Vance county Grange and
home demonstration clubs are going
after electric current for the farm
home this year. At the beginning of
1886 there was only one rural electric
line in the county and already two
more have been constructed and five
other lines approved.
Sometimes a landlord feels that he
cannot wire the farm house even if
his tenant is willing to pay for the
current but this does not apply to
most of them.
The head of one farm family said,
I'VE are getting too old to make a
change in our way of living now" but
when he saw what electric convent
ences did for his neighbor he changed
his mind. After Mrs. j. E. Gill of
Vance county had had electric cur
rent for two weeks she told the home
agent to tell every woman in the
county to sign up for an electric line
and to buy an electric churn the next
morning after they get it.
why" she said, 81 turn mine on
when 1 sit down to breakfast, and
when I have finished eating the but
IL.
| also have lights, refrigerator, and
an iron and / feel that the drudgery
of my home is much lessened.
"The money that I used to spend
for ice in the summer more than pays
all my electricity bills for the entire
season."
A small boy in one farm home who
was watching the meter closely rush
ed in one day exclaiming Mother
l-'~" off everything we have already
used our so kilowats.'
Johnston county feels that it is a.
good thing for it's farm housewives
to get away from home once in a
while and for the past few years
groups of women have been seeing
the mountains of North Carolina and
Tennessee, going to Charleston and
Wilmington for the beautiful gardens
and to Washington to see the ma
tons capitol.
Miss Rachel Everett, the home
agent, says that in August AZ club
women went to Baltimore and came
back by the famous caverns of Vir-
ginia. They left on a big bus supple
mented by three cars.
The lovely shops in Baltimore were
fascinating places but the big Lex
ington market, the largest farm pro-
duce market in the United States, in
terested them most. In the evening
there was a good show to see and the
next day there was trip through the
Shenandoah valley. The beautiful
caverns with their colored electric
lights and further on the Natural
bridge furnished the women with
things to think about for the rest of
their lives.
Outside of their meals the fourday
trip cost each woman $3.50. They
stopped at tourist camps and mex
pensive hotels but that is a small sum
to pay for so much awakened interest
and so much joy.
Most of these women had just been
through tobacco season when every
one works from daylight until after
dark and the trip gave them new
way of looking at things and a fresh
interest in taking up the old house
keeping duties when they returned.
