OF ADVERTISING THAN AT

CONVINCE HOME CONSUMERS
Products Made in the Carolinas Are j
Sh.pped to Outside Oealers, Then
Resold Here Under Another Name.
Charlotte.—No better means of ad-i
vertising the Carolinas appears avail- j
" than that offered by the Made-in j
Caioliuas Exposition, which will be:
held in Charlotte September 12 to 29.)
in the opinion of Dr. Joseph Hyde j
Pratt, director of the- North Carolina j
Geological and Economic Survey,
with headquarters at Raleigh.
In a statement given out here at
headquarters of the exposition, Dr.
Pratt declared, "I believe that an ex-1
position such as is being developed!
- In the Made-tn-Carolinas Exposition j
will —advertise to- a greater —extent!
the products th?t are made in the |
Carolinas, and in a better and more
conclusive way than has ever before!
been attempted.
"It should be aide to emphasize i
to the home consumer that It is not
necessary to go outside of the Caro- j
Unas to obtain the greater part of the
various products that are used.
"Many instances could be cited In j
North Carolina and South Carolina j
of people purchasing materials abroad |
which they considered better than |
that which could be produced in the j
home states, only to find later thatj
the product was made here and sold ;
under another name.
."There Is no question In my mind!
but that the Carol able to J
produce and are producing Just as]
good grade products as are produced j
anywhere, and it Is slinply a question |
of the people knowing what these j
manufacturers have, will be brought
to the realization that it is more ad
visable, from many viewpoints, to buy
the home product in preference of the
out-of-the-Carollnas products."

CHILD LABOH LAW
UNCONSTITUTIONAL
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CANNOT
COLLECT TEN PER CENT FOR
VIOLATIONS OF LAW.
IS MUTTER FOR STATES ONLY
State Laws Provide Penalty and Not
a Tax, as ia Provided by the Act
Ruled Upon, Says Judge Boyd.
»
Greensboro, N. C. —Judge James E.
Boyd, in federal court, held the na
tional child labor law, wlilch seeks
to collect a federal tax of ten per
cent on the profits derived from the
products of child labor, unconstitution
al. The decision was in the case
of the Vivian Spinning Mills, of Cher
ry ville, N., C., seeking to restrain J.
W. Bailey, collector of internal rev
enue, from enforcing the act.
The Owen-Keating child labor law
was also held unconstitutional by
Judge Boyd in decision rendered two
years ago and that ruling was up
held by the Supreme Court of the
United States.
Hegulatiou of labor, Judge Boyd
ruled In his decision, is oue of the
powers retained by the states, and not
delegated to the federal government.
State child labor laws are adequate
to take care of the situation and pro
vide a penalty, not a tax, as is pro
posed by the act of congress.
The attempt of the federal govern
ment to regulate labor within the
state is ah usurpation of authority
and a violation of the sovereign
rights of the state, concludes the rul
ing.

THE 68VERK0R AT CONCORD
Impartial Address Was Delivered by
Chief Executive on Obligations of
Both Labor and Capital.
/
Concord. Governor Morrison ad
dressed a mammoth crowd at the Con
cord graded school grtAinds here, ex
plaining his attitude toward the strike
situation and the purpose of the state
in dispatching troops to the scene of
the strike.
The text of the governor's speech,
in part, is as follows:
"My own judgment was against my
coming here and speaking on this oc
casion; but Mr. Barrett, head of the
Federation of Labor, and other promi
nent officials of organized labor, after
our conference at Asheville on Wed
nesday the 17th, gave me most positive
assurance that in their opinion my
views of the situation and of the dif
ficulties which beset all concerned
here would be of great benefit.
"I do not deem It wise or proper for
the Governor of North Carolina to
interpose and interfere with the mak
ing of a contract between citizens
of this state.
"The freedom of contract involves
the very foundation of free govern
ment. i For the Governor of Nortji
VCarolina to -endeavor to force men to
make a contract in this state against
their will is,, in my judgment, a very
improper thing to do.
"Labor in North Carolina has a
legal right to organize and to collec
tively bargain when organized, provid
ed, however, they can find some
body willing to bargain with them.
Their rights to collectively bargain
cannot be taken away from them
under the .constitutional securities ot
liberty, which are the very life of the
republic.
"On the other hand, employers with
whom they want ta contract have the
right to contract with them or not
contract with them, as they see fit,
and deem it, to their interest. This
would no longer be a free country if
citizens were forced to contract with
any individual or group of individuals
with whom they did hot want to con
tract. There is no law under which
tfie governor or any other official can
make them contract. None could be
enacted under our constitution.
"I believe in recognizing every le
gal right of organized labor; but I also
believe in recognizing every legal
right of the employers of labor; and
every legal right of unorganized la
bor.
"Furthermore, if I should inject my
self into this controversy, and en
deavor to adjust it, I fear I would' no
lopger have the confidence of the
side I had come to a judgment against
in my efforts to uphold the law which
a continued conflict might necessi
tate.
"In respect to the disorder &hich
had assumed threatening proportions
in Cabarrus county, I think it arose
largely from the fact that the local
police officers did not clearly com
prehend their duty more than from
any unwillingness to discharge it.
There has been much confusion in
thg public mind as >to what would
constitute illegal practices in a tense
situation produced between striking
laborers and those about to take their
places. I announced in my letter to
Sheriff Cochrane of Mecklenburg
some time ago (by the way, the wide
ly published statement that Sheriff
Cochrane called for troops was un
true; he merely asked me for in
structions), tfiat it was the duty of
the local police authorities to use all
the necessary power to keep order
and suppress intimidation and inter
ference of anybody's rights, but that
I would unhesitatingly send troops
anywhere they were needed, what
ever cause produced the trouble.
"But I want to move them away
from here, and I appeal to all men of
this county, whether you are standing
under the standard of union labor and
doing what you can to aid the striking
laborers, or on the other side. Who
ever you are, and wherever your sym
pathies may be, I appeal to you as a
citizen of North Carolina to give your
Influence quickly und without delay
to the sheriff and the police officers,
and establish by common concord of
all good men in this county a respect
for order, liberty and peaceful ar
gument which will Justify me in mov
ing the troops here from your county.
They neither want to stay nor do I
want them to stay. They are here at
Immense sacrifice to themselves, and
only for the purpose of enabling sach
side to this controversy to enjoy all.
the liberty guaranteed its followers by
the law of the land. It is along these
lines, and upon these principles that
we can continue to enjoy liberty In
this State and country.
"Finally, I want to appeal to all con
flicting classes to submerge and forget
their class consciousness and class in
terest in an unselfish devotion to the
precious principles of our government.
Morrison on Employers.
"There Is a wide opinion that pub
lic sentiment must Jerk up every large
employer of labor* and by abuse and
vindication bring him into contempt
when he exercises his undoubted priv
ilege to refuse to enter into a contract
which rfe does not want to enter into
with his employes. It is his own busi
ness, and no man has any right, even
those who want to make the contract
which the employer in the exercise of
hU undoubted liberty, will not make,
to become angry with him, and abuse
him and hate him."
