ALLEGED BEATING OF NEGRO BRINGS WARRANTS One Charlotte Officer Formally Ar rested and Warrant Issued For An other. Charlotte, April 10. —One police- j man was formally arrested, and a pri-1 vate policeman and another man nnm- 1 ' ed in warrants here today as a result I of alleged beating of a negro arrested here last Saturday night. L. W. Bowlin, motorcycle officer, was arrested on a charge of assault with intent to kiH on a warrant sign ed by Robert Harris, negro, who al leged he was beaten in the city jail.

Carl Johnson, railroad .nolieeman. was named in another warrant, and Iluev Bridges, a sand hauling contrac tor. was the third man named. They have not yet been arrested. Police, officers today asserted that i Bowling had nothing to do with the ; case. They said he was not in the city last Saturday night. The case had its inception in the ! arrest of William Roger, a negro, in j connection with disappearance of some i articles belonging to Arthur Bridges father of Juey Bridges. Roger is said to have implicated Harris, and police allege they secured a confession from the two. Today’s action followed claims of Harris that he was beaten and the action of C. C. Broughton of Tjroy, an attorney, who demanded an in vestigation. James S. Little Died Sunday at Oak boro. Stanly News-Herald. James S.

Easter i togs and finery may be promenaded along the boulevards and main streets of the country east of the Mississippi river Sunday, says the weather bureau, save in the lower lake region, Ohio, Tennessee and Mississippi without fear of the lin o rtainties of April weather. Those sections, however, also seem safe if the promenaders get an early start, but in the afternoon they prob ably are due for rain. A small boy who had been sent to bring eggs, exclaimed: ‘‘Mother, I — 1 1 — dropped them once.” WEIGHTS AND MEASURES LAW NOT OPERATING ! Operation Being Held Up Until Rides ami Regulations Are Drawn Up. Raleigh, April li>.—Operation of the new state-wide weights and meas ures law is being held up pending the arrival of an expert from the 11. S. Bureau of Standards in Washington, j who will assist the State Department of Agriculture in the drawing up of the rules and regulations governing the operation of the new law, it was I announced today by W. A. Graham, commissioner of agriculture. It is expected that this representative will arrive some time next week. The new law provides that such other rules and regulations shall be ! drawn up by the department as may be deemed necessary, and that these rules and regulations must also con form to the Federal rules and regula tions governing weights and measures. Hence, in order that there might be full conformity, Commissioner Graham : has delayed the preparation of these further regulations until such a time ;as the Bureau of Standards could i send one of their experts to Raleigh |to assist in the work. The law fur-1 ther provides that the law shall not I , become operative until 30 days after j the full rules and regulations shall j have been published. • Thus, until these new regulations , have been prepared and published, the old regulations will prevail, as will the j existing ordinances in those cities j that have special ordinances govern i ing we’ghts and measures, Mr. Gra ! ham said. It has not yet been deti- I nitely determined just what division ; | of the department will have charge of J the enforcement of the law, although i it is probable that it will be placed un der the supervision of the division of , i markets. Although the law itself is not so | lengthy, it is all-inclusive, in that it I gives extensive powers to the depart ment in the making up of-the regula- | t : on so that almost everything from ice scales on ice wagons, to electric and gas metres, will come within the terms of the law, which also gives au- ! thority to fix the fees to be charged for inspection service. It is expected i that these fees will provide the neces-ij sary funds for the enforcement of the law. PLANS FOR BIG FRANCE * LEGION PARADE MADE Five Miles Long. Through Heart of Paris, Passing Most Historic Spots of French Capital. Charlotte. N. C„ April 15. —A five mile line of parade of the American legion through the heart of Paris on the opeuing day of the national con vention next September has been tentatively agreed upon, ir >.-n~ an nounced today by James of I/exington.

The parade will lead through the heart of the downtown Paris along streets followed by victorious armies for centuries. A holiday has been de clared September 19, the day of the parade and the greater part of the three million population of the gay capita! will be along the line of ! March. Ferdinand Foch, Marshal of France and supreme commander of .the Allied Armies; General John J. Pershing, wartime commander of the A. E. F., and Howard P. Savage. National Commander of the Ameri can Legion, will be among the dis tinguished officials in the reviewing stand- General Gouraud, military governor of Paris, a wartime eom- I mander known to thousands of ; American soldiers, cooperated in ar rangements for the coming parade. The host or Legionnaires will gather for the parade in the Place des Invalides. Towering above the veterans will be the dome of this famous structure which houses the tomb of Napoleon and the relics won on b’.ood soaked fields of Europe by the Poi'.us. From this central point the veterans will proceed down the avenue du Gallieni, named in honor of the moving spirit of the ‘“taxicab" army hurled in tue face of the Ger mans as they advanced almost to the French capital.

The great number or musicians and bandsmen that have made reser vations and the international aspect of the parade promise to make it the most colorful in the history of na tional Legion conventions. j THE CONCORD TIMES NEW ORLEANS GETS HEAVIEST M IN 56 YEARS IN NIGHT Business Came to Stand still and Many Streets, | Ordinarily Above Water, ' Were Inundated. 14.01 INCHES OF RAIN IS RECORDED i . Families Were Marooned in Homes in Many In stances and Practically | All of City Suffered. j New Orleans, April IG.— (A 3 )— 14.01 inches of rain fHI. in New Orleans last night, the weather bureau report 'ed today. The rainfall broke all records for the past 56 yearn, the highest previ ous record being 9.22 inches. Hun dreds of blocks of the residential sec tions were flooded, and thousands of persons were unable to get down town to business. . , ! Business, largely, suspended for the Easter holidays, came to a virtual standstill and many.of the thorough fares which arc high and dry under normal rains were under from four inches to three feet of water, with only boats or high wheeled wagons able to penetrate them. Families were marooned in their homes, with the exception of those lucky enough to have a skiff in their back yards, or such as desired an ' early morning swim in their front yards. | Virtually every section of the city I except certain high section.' in French Quarter, and certain peaks in the bus iness and uptown sections of the city were under water at some time dur ing the night. As the pumping system gradually gained control of the situation the bus iness section was freed of water, but hundreds of blocks in the uptown resi dential section remained under water at 10 o’clock today. In portions of the city the water had ebbed into houses to a depth of six inches. Announcement by Fenner & Beane. Fenner & Beane, members of the New York stock and cotton exchanges and of the Chicago— send out the following announcement: We have the pleasure to announce that Ben Talbot, former financing editor of the New York Evening Mail and New York Telegram and recently with the firm of Jackson .Boesel & Co., has become associated with this firm in a stock market advisory ca pacity. Prior to his connection with New York Evening Mail, Mr. Talbot was. before the war, financial writer for the International News and the New York American. Later he was Lon don correspondent of the New York Sun and the New York Herald and upon his return from abroad, was an editorial writer on economic and finan cial subjects for the New York Herald before it was merged with the New York Tribune.' Mr. Talbot will make his headquarters at our »w York office in the Cotton Exchange build ing. 00 Beaver Street, and will write our daily stock market advices. He will be glad to answer all inquiries. Mr. Talbot today sent out the fol lowing letter to the customers joss Fenner & Beane: When the steel stockholders meet Monday and ratify the 40 per cent, dividerid in common shares, it will remove one subject of bullish discus sion but will open up another, be cause the meeting on the cash divi dend is not scheduled until April 26th. In the interim between these two meetings I look for a campaign in Steel common that will carry it upto the prices so often predicted in the last few months, which means from 175 to ISO where the yield will be about 5 1-2 per cent, with a dividend of $7 on the new stock and I have no doubt that this rate will be in augurated at the month-end meeting. It is not reasonable to suppose that the expected advance in Steel can take place- without having at least a mildly stimulating influence on the rest of the list. I would not take too much for grafted and when profits present themselves I would not ignore them. There are supposed to be con structive moves on the way in In dustrial Alcohol, International Nickel, Central Alloy Steel, Gold Dust and Bethlehem Steel. These among oth ers, I think, can be played for quick turns only. BEN TALBOT. 400 VETERANS APPLY TO LOAN COMMISSION Applicants From Cities Outnumber Those From Rural Sections Five To One. Raleight, April 14. —With about 400 applications already for loans to veterans of the world war out of the $2,000,000 bond issue voted in last November election, plans are rapidly going forward for making loans which were held up by the test case in the Supreme court last xveek. Col. John Hall Manning, commis sioner of the fund, said today that the most surprising thing about the applications so far received has been the small number of applicants from owners and prospective purchasers of farm property, who have 'been out numbered 5 to 1 by applicants from cities. A small girl asked her mother: *‘lf I grow up, will I have a hus band like papa?" "Yes, my dear,” mother replied. “And if I do not get married will I be an old maid lTke Aunt Susan?” , “Yes,” was the reply. IThe little girl thought, for a minute. “Well, I am in a fix.” i ♦ ■***********♦ * * * agricultural column * * * 1 U. D. Goodman, County Agent % * * ; <»“*&*********♦ Grow Some Sc,rgn;.m. Following a diversified system ot farming which the agricultural leaders have been advising for .some- S time, do not forget to save a place ■ to grow fiorghum. This crop may be grown for hay, silage. seed, and syrup, in faet. practically the whole 1 plant may be used as a feed or other 1 purposes after the juice has been ex- | tracted for syrup making. In 1926, the syrup secured per j . acre from the sorghum grown in North Carolina and Virginia was about 95 gallons per acre. This yield is much below the average for the United Statevs, which is about 150 gallons per acre, also, it is very low’ when compared with me y, c iu,s secured by ma_y of the bo><t farmers of these tw’o states, on many farms the yield of from 350 to 450 gallons per acre being secured. In securing arge yields such as those given above, the* sorghum crop is very pro fitable and there is no reason why all the farmers that grow’ sorghum should not secure larger yields than they have been. In grow’ing sorghum, the prepara tion of the land, the variety of seed used and cultivation is all as neces 'iiry as for other crops. It is prob able that the low yields secured by most farmers is caused by the fact that little or no plant food is furnish ed the crop; the yields that are se cured being made from the land it self- The experiment stations of North Carolina and Virginia advise the growing of Sorghum. They also ad vise that to make sorghum profit ably, the emit should be fertilized. !n general their recommendations are about the same as for eorn: Sandy soils 400 to KOO pounds ot 12-2-6. Loam soils 400 to 800 pounds of j 12-4-2. (May soils 400 to 800 pounds of : 12-4-0. In order to secure juice that is j rich in sugars, plenty of available potash should be applied. Most soils in North Carolina and Virginia do not have enough available potash to make large yields of syrup rich in s ugam. If fertilized properly, there is pro fit in sorghum growing. Mrs. VV. S. Myers Honored VVitll a Surprise Bit Inlay Dinner. Mrs. W. S. Myers, of White Hall neighborhood, was very mueh surprised Sunday when about 11 o'clock cars filled with friends and relatives com menced coining, and by 12:30 quite a large crowd with loaded baskets were ready to spread on an improvised table which was fixed in the yard, a fine Easter dinner for the honoree.

NORMAL AT ALBEMARLE IS TO PUT ON CAMPAIGN Presbytery Gives School Authority, to Raise Fund for .New Dormitory. Albemarle, April 14.—The outstand ing feature of the proceedings of the Mecklenburg Presbytery today was the granting a request from the Albemarle Normal and Industrial Institute in an effort to raise a fund with which to erect a new dormitory for the school and provide for other facilities so badly needed. The trustees or the school /held a meeting this morning and made their proposition immediately thereafter, stating that the school had reached the point where it would either be necessary to close it down, or put into it from $40,000 to $50,000, the amount estimated the dormitory would cost. Rev. It. J. Mcllwaine, W. H. lielk and A. C. Huneycuti' were the three trustees to make appeals to the Presbytery for this donation. The proposition met with the hearty ap proval of practically every delegate and after a resolution had been pre pared and read by Dr. Bridges, of Charlotte, Moderator Walker called William Anderson to the chair and himse'.f took the floor to appeal to every delegate and minister present to vote for the Bridges resolution and go back home and heartily back it up. The Sugar Croek trouble was not taken at this session of the Presbytery.
