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?

| 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.
