May 1924. Here are some OF Mrs
Weizmann's graphic notes, written
in New York:

claims invasion in the Security
Council. No protests there except
Ukraine. Futile discussion goes on
Reported invasion proceeds on

quantities.
Lloyd George in his memoirs
suggested that the Balfour Declar-
alton issued Nov. 2. 1918 was a
reward to Weizmann for his serv-
ices to England. WeiZmann fer
vently wrote in his autobiography
IT almost wish that it had been
as simple as that :"
WHILE 1T Is true that his work
for the War Office brought Weiz-
mann into contact with leading gov
ernment figures in England, and
perhaps gave him added stature,
it was only Weizmann's aSSiduous
conversations on Palestine with
leading figures in the major Allied
countries that finally resulted in
the issuance of the Balfour Dec
laration.
Scholars will also be interested
in the original manuscript Of DIR.
Weizmann's address delivered at
the founding of Hebrew University
in July, 1918. Completion of the
university was part of Weizmann's
faith in a free Jewish Palestine.
It is remarkable that Weizmam
insisted on going forward with the
university in the midst of a war
between the British and the Turks
in Palestine. General Allenby, head
of the British troops, warned WeiZ-
mann, I'VE may be rolled back at
any minute. What is the good OF
beginning something you may new
er be able to finiSh?" WeiZmam'S
faith was unshaken.

Justices of the Peace, the Mayor
gets nothing FOR conducting the

E''deings Gees Out O., Bigger Limb
Predicting Tobacco Season Price

Ii sounded like typical Chamber of Commerce
noise when Tally EddingS, executive secretary of
the Tabor City Merchants Association. told folks
last year that the tobacco market would average
over $50 per hundred.
Some folks even smOthered outright burS.
of laughter.
But it Tally who smiled when the last sale
was recorded and the official Tabor City tobacco
market average stood at S60.27.
1t went into the books the highest average
ever paid for a season by a North Carolina to-
baccO market. For world records it was probably
second.
Well, Tally is at it again this season. With
only five days remaining before the opening of
the 1853 season he went out the limb with an
even more dazzling prediction than last year
I'VE will average S62.50 per hundred or
better this year, said Tally without even going
through the gesture of being coy
Again. it will take about eight weeks to find
out whether Tally was stabbing in the dark last
year or whether he has secret system for pre-
dieting the seasons average
If Tally hits it the nose for the second
conecutive year there will be more smiling faces
in this part of the state than there were sad ones
during the so-called recession of just few short
months ago.

Mr.. II. Hugh Nance. Columbus
County Veterans Service Officer
said this morning that the Co
unity Veteran Service Officers
within District No. 4 df the
North Carolina Veterans Com
mission and the District Office,
would ..N- 10 cooperate with int
crested organizations and indivi-
'dualS in securing head stones or
grave markers for the unma,
ed graves of deceased veterans
in their respective counties.
/ Mr.. Nance said the govern

marker or maidstone free of
cost, for the unmarked graves of
members of the Armed Forces Of
the United States or the Confed-
crate States of America who
either died in service or whose
/ last discharge was honorable.
The person applying for ~
marker need not be related to
the deceased veteran, Mr.. Nance
said. However. if there are mem
] bcrS of the family living the fact
that they desire n government
marker should be determined.
He said a choice may be made
between upright headstones of
American White Marble and Flat

Nerve Shuttering TC Mayors Court
Takes In Nearly $1,000 Per Month

Tabor City's youngest mayor
ever is making his mark on May
or's Court which has always
been the thorn in every Mayors
side.
Howard Harrison, who at the
age of % moved into the top
role of town government, has
racked up the greatest amount
of revenue ever reached in May
or's Court. The total for the u
months period ending June 80
was Sll,l53.48 Prior to this re-
cord breaking figure the top tot
al was about $4,000 taken in dur
ing the administration of w.
Horace Carter.
Although virtually IMMERSED in
laws and court regulations when
he became Mayor and inherited
the Mayors Court Chore, he has
learned quickly. His consistency
has paid dividends. He no long
er is bothered by people want
ing special favOrS regarding
cases on the docket.
One of the first things done
by HarrelSon was to eliminate
any credit provisions. Now, per-
sons convicted in court know
they have one of three choices
pay the fine, appeal the case or
serve the Jail sentence.
Several months ago a Negro
man convicted for the third time
OF public drunkenness was
charged the standard $50 fine
plus cost of court. HARRISON told
him he would have TO pay the
fine or serve the jail sentence.
Then he relcntcd and told the
defendant that ordinarily the
policemen took the defendants to
Whiteville, where they began
serving their sentence, early on
Tuesday morning but that they
wouldn't leave the next day I'M
til about noon. This, explained
the Mayor, would give the de-
PENDANTS friends time to raise
the money to pay his fine.
The Mayor was taken by sur
prise when the defendant asked,
How come l can't be taken to
WhiteviIle tonight? I'd like to
get this here 80 days over with
as soon as possible"
Another special provision in
itiated by HarrelSon has been
the system of fines. First Offend
ers are taxed cost OF court.
Second offenders pay SO fine
plus cost. Third offenders pay
$50 and cost. The maximum is
$50 fine plus cost. After that
many OticnScs, the defendant is
sentenced TO 80 days in jail.
The new fire" system ha,
