A man •'Can stand* nrmce:., nr..v d.iaucial pressure A he has :u • abundant food supply on hand. T t ■- j anus of farmers are coing this, be*, ■ the ‘ r ruble is due to tiie big-pLx.nr; ! men who own hundreds and tuou • a** j of acres of cotton land and n , their tenants to plant all cr.tton. . i have or t tnoir own turoacs aml c..e j throats of the small growers. It is quite clear that the nr>o of cotton does not depend on is president. That much is settled, but it is not yet proved that agricultural troubles are not due to the tariff wall that raises the price of every thing that the farmer buys and cur tails the buying power cf foreign countries. On fcne contrary, tne pre surnptiorfthat such a statement, is true is stronger than ever. Twe:ve-eent cotton would not be so bad if otner things were not so high. tion with world production would' quickly lower the prices of manufac tured goods. J. Vv. Bailey offers as a solution of the cotton problem the preposition { that no cotton be picked after Novcrn- ' her 1. The News and Observer up- j proves, lno idea is to cut production | two or three millions bales and thus ; raise the price. Mr. Bailey estimates that li millions-bales will bring more than 16 millions, and the cost of picking is saved. The conclusion is probably true, but there arc the usual difficulties, and others. In the first 4>lace, all wouldn't do it. The strong er the sentiment for this policy, tne closer some folk would pick, in order to benefit from the higher price to be secured because of others’ leaving cotton unpicked. And, then, if sv-.cn a policy could be carried out, it would not be fair to the growers cf the northern areas. Picking has really just begun in this section. It has been in progress for months in Tex as. Texas should quit now if North Carolina should quit picking Novem ber 1. But such a policy is economic foolishness from almost any stand point. Why destroy now what must be again produced next year? The world’s economic sense is distressingly limited if such a policy is the wisest that can be adopted. It would be better to pick the cotton and lay it aside till next year, cutting produc tion to that extent in 1927. Clarence Poe’s idea is that the co-operative marketing association is the agency to save the situation. Let all grow ers join. Let several million bales be withheld from the market and the trick is turned. Os course, the crop should be cut to the extent of the cotton withheld from the market. But how can the farmers be got to co operate? NOTICE OF SALE Under and by virtue of the powo, of sale contained in that certain Deeo. of Trust executed by E. G.

C. • | MODERN CLOTHES ADD TO COP’S WOES | Make Curfew Law Enforce- * merit Difficult. Chicago. —Time turned back a gen eration or two as Chicago, a sophisti- . cated city of 3,000,000, revived the curfew law of its innocent village days, but policemen, bemused by the | styles of the reigning generation, found enforcement a matter of consid erable difficulty. * ' i All boys arffi girl sixteen years old or under must bo- o.'f the streets at j ten o'clock, the city fathers had ruled in an effort to end a long record of attacks and kid n a pings, and 3,000 Huecoats were sent forth to. enforce the. edict. •Then their troubles began, for they claimed that with the prevailing i modes of short skirts, rolle d hose and bobbed hair they were unable to dis i tiaguish children from grownups. Several 'married women, well past twenty, wore taken into custody as I “children,” while be\vil(ffi’*e<J police | men who stop'ped “kids’’ ere indig nantly informed that their-agms were ; above the curfew limit. One suggestion that the age limit be raised to eighteen was made by juvenile authorities, but the you;h searebi 4 coppers maintained that that did not make niuvh diiiortnce. Akhough the order of the city po lice did not go into effect until re cently, the county curfew, which ap plies to girls under sixteen after 10:30 p. m., was sounded the More than a score of girl" were caught and warned that the next time they will go to the juvenile detention home. Their parents were notified. The orders to the city police were to question any children found un ‘ escorted after the forbidden hour and' send them home. On a second of fense, under the city ordinance, the ! parents will face a line of $5 to 3160 1 and the child the juvenile court. Parks were ordered cleared at 10 p. m., and county highway officers pa trolled country roads and lovers’ lanes. “Youngsters must do tlieir courting hereafter in the parlor at home,” said Chief of Police Collins. “Not that we want to be old-fashioned and violate personal liberty-, but simply as a com mon-sense measure to check dangers to themselves. “The worst of the moron crimes are committed against young girls. It is too late to save them after they have been picked up or' kidnaped.” Will Seek for Dragons Aviator Says He Saw New York. —Dragons that blow smoke from their noses and eat a small pony for Sunday dinner, re ported to exist on the island of Ko modo, off the coast of Australia, will be sought by a party of unnamed Americans, according to word received here from London. The dragons were reported by Alan Cobham. the British aviator, on his airpltfne flight from London to Aus tralia. They were described as terrible creatures, built like giant lizards, some 12 feet long, with long claws and long red tongues, which they flour ished in the air just like the ones which St. George killed. They emit ted a vapor, according to description, like legendary dragons are supposed to have done. Saves Life of Man in Coils of Giant Python Los Angeles, Calif.—Wrapped in the coils of a giant python that was slowly crushing the life out of his body, Wilbur Westlake, forty, veteran anl man trainer, was saved from death by the presence of mind of u small boy recently. * As the enraged reptile wound its body tighter around Westlake, the youth sprang from a group of fear pa nil.vzed onlookers and thrust a stick of wood down the snake’s throat. The struggle took place at the win ter quarters of the A1 G. Barnes cir cus near Culver City. Garaev Bynum, accomnanied bv his Affine! Charles Bisset.t, came in from. Wilson to spend the week-end.
