EXPORT-IMPORT BANK
GRANTS CHINA LOAN
FOR COTTON BUYING

WASHINGTON, Jan. II. -GP)-
The Export Import Bank today for
mally announced approval of a
$33. 000,0 900 credit to China for the
purchase of raw cotton here.
AS in the case of cotton credits
for European countries, the interest
rate will be 2 IL per cent, but be-
cause of the time required for both
ocean and internal Chinese trans
port, the new Chinese credit will
require repayment within "a
months after the arrival of the cot
ton abroad. Instead of Is months
as in the European credits.
The bank said in statement
that reestablishment of the manu-
facture of cotton cloth by the
Chinese will tend to reduce the
present call on the United States
through the United Nations Relief
and Rehabilitation Administration
for shipments of woven cloth to
China. Unemployment of Chinese
workers will still further reduce
other relief needs, the bank added.

for his family from one of the
barracks buildings he'd got from
Ft. Fisher.
Yesterday, shortly after noon,
he had to go to his new job on
the dredge. There was no way for
him to go but for Mrs. Brewer to
drive him there.
Lennon, baby of the family, was
sick in bed, threatened with pneu-
monia. But Brewer had to 60 to
work and Mrs. Brewer had to
drive him. So they decided to
leave Joyce in charge of the house
and Lennon.
About three o'clock the new
heater got red hot. From it the
house caught fire.
Joyce dragged Lennon out Of his
bed. She dragged him to safety
out of the burning house. The
house burned to the ground.
Lennon was in his night-gown
and barefooted. But Joyce had to
get him somewhere. So she walked
with him, barefooted, to Stacy
Tavern, a mile and half away.
There, Mrs. Mary Glenn, sister
of Mrs. E. w. Stacy whose husband
operates Stacy's Tavern, put Len
non to bed and gave him some
medicine, hoping to stave off the
effects on his threatened pneumonia
of his mile-and-a-half barefoot
trudge.
When the house burned the
Brewers lost all their furniture and
all their clothes-and, Of course,
the house. There was no insurance.
Good neighbors last night, be-
fore even the smoke stopped curl
ing up from the ashes, began tax
ing groceries to Broughton's Ser
vice station near where the
Brewers lived. They also carried
shoes and clothing. These were
turned over to the Brewers.
And those same good neighbors
began a movement to build some
sort of shelter for the Brewers
until Mr.. Brewer gets the chance
to start all over again and build
a new home for his family.

was applied. If he finds no reac-
ton to the test he advises repeat
ing the test later on.
If he decides there is a reaction
in the skin, the result is declared
positive, and the test is usually
followed up with the chest X-Ray
to determine the extent of illness
of the lungs.
The executive secretary pointed
out that fortunately not all of the
positive tests mean disease, al
though the positive reaction to the
test means that somewhere, some
time germs got inside and are still
living.
It was explained that the only
effect the person will note from the
test is a slightly raised red area
where the test was applied. Even
this vanishes in a short time ac-
cording to experts making the
tests.
In recent years the skin tests
have been given to members of the
nigh schools manly, however IN
some instances, Negro students OF
primary schools have received the
tests.
Public health nurses under the
supervision of Miss Columbia
Munds will administer the tests,
according to DR.. A. H. Elliot, pub
lie health official who said last
night the department plans to make
tests among students of the gram
mar grades and compare he re-
suits with those of the same num-
Der of high school students for
whom tests will be made.
He said the nurses will give the
tests to students at Tileston school
during the latter part of this week
and the first of February. The
work will then be carried on among
students of the high school.

possibly to order that all existing
margin accounts be placed on a
cash basis and make some OF the
administrative provisions applying
to banks more rigid.
He said that to whatever length
the board goes to dampen spe-
culative activity, it would be de-
sirable. n
GAS I have frequently sotght
to emphasize in the past" he
said, "the primary source of the
initiation danger which overhangs
the domestic economy on all fronts
is the vast accumulation of cur
rency and bank deposits at the
disposal of the public as result
of the fact that far too much of
the cost of the war was financed
through the creation of CONNER
cial bank credit and not enough
was financed out Of taxes and
the savings Of the public
Eccles said that while credit for
the market and other purposes had
been curbed right along through
the war it was minor and not a
major factor in the initiation pic
ture.
He added that while credit curbs
are justified for any restraint they
impose on speculative activities,
they cannot reach the real source
of danger-huge amounts oil
money already created through
bank credit.
In calling for further curbs he
repeated previous assertions that
the rate of capital gains tax, OF
the holding period or combination
of both should be increased sub
stantially.
He pointed out that such in
creases would not affect the pur.
chase of capital assets which have
been or are being bought for per.
sonal use or long term investment
rather than for speculative rise.

In the steel dispute, where 300, 900
CLIO workers have called strike

conferred earlier with his steel
fact-finding board.
Congress-, meanwhile, took two

industrial strife. The House Labor

action by Tuesday on fact-finding
or some other type of labor legis-

HIGHWAYS OF STATE ALL IN

HIGHWAYS OF STATE ALL IN
OPERATION
RALEIGH, Jan. 17-P)-North
Cardinals system of main and
secondary highways continued IN
operation today despite the heav-
lest snowfall the state has expert
enced in several winters, highway
officials reported tonight.
Only one main highway was
known to be definitely closed to
traffic, while several of the main
arteries were cleared of snow and
ice to permit regular through traf-
fic.
State highway patrol headquar-
tiers said that U. S. Ga east of here
to Wilson and Rocky Mount was
closed early today when several
heavy trasnfer trucks "piled up
at the foot of steep grade six
miles from Raleigh. At least
three trucks overturned in the
snow after skidding on the slippery
pavement going downhill. No one
was hurt.
Maj. H. J. Hatcher, commanding
the patrol, said all highways were
passable with the use of chains,
but the country roads within 70
mile radious of Raleigh were lab
solutely impossible.
Highway commission headquar-
tiers said detours had been placed
on N. c. 70-A west of Raleigh to
Durham, thus breaking traffic
loose to all points in cent
trail and western North Car
Gina. An alternate. new
route-N. C. Toto Durham was
in operation but highway officials
advised use of the old route be-
cause Of the sand base.
Hatcher said that, generally
speaking, U. S. No. l from north
to south was passable all the way
through the state with the use OF
chains, and that U. S. 15-A, an
other southern route, was passa-
BILE to Fayetteville, although in
bad condition. U. S. No. 301 from
Weldon to Rocky Mount, Wilson,
Smlthfleld and Fayetteville, was
cleared OF snow early today to per
nit heavy military traffic.

IDEAL SITUATION
Mrs. Johnson points out that al
though thousands of white and
colored Americans here at home
are undernourished, our situation
almost ideal compared with starva-
tion diets in Europe, and in parts
Of Asia and Africa.
The letters to the local AKA
chapters suggest that Victory Gar
dening be encouraged, and that
potatoes. poultry, fresh fruits and
vegetables be used when possible
in place of wheat products, fats
and oils. The membership IS urged
especially to cut down on bread,
macaroni, spaghetti, pies, cookies
and breakfast cereals.
Mrs. Johnson estimates that the
AKA membership alone could save
10000 loaves of bread month
by serving their fasmilies potatoes
instead of bread twice a week.
