(The American Legion is to under take'the .raising,, of .SIOO,OOO to provide for the deccfration of graves of our dead overseas on each Memorial Day. Many men prominent in the business and diplomatic life have given assur ances to the Legion of their support of the undertaking. Myron T. Her rick. American Ambassador to France, Secretary of War Weeks and General Pershing being among those who have assured the Legion officers that they will work for the fund. This delicate and kindly thought of the American Legion in assuming the responsibility for the appropriate dec oration of the graves of the Ameri can soldiers in France has received the universal and grateful approval of the families, relatives and friends of its dead comrades." Ambassador Her rick stated in a recent message to legion headquarters in Indianapolis. “It is an assurance of permanency and efficiency in the outward remem brance of our honored dead. Also, it is a comforting thought that the grtgres of our boys who sleep in the fields of France, where they fought and died, have become the sacred trust of. their living comrades, (lie Legions ires.” WHAT will be done with THEM? Automobile production in March in creased and was tin' highest oil rec ord. exceeding liy 0-1,006 cars and trucks the highest productions of last June, according to reports received by the Department of Commerce .through the Bureau of the Census, in co-oper ation with the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce. Passenger cat's produced amounted to .'US.I;-'4 and trucks to 34.505 during the month. What fs to become of all these au tos? The streets in all cities are so congested that traffic is a serious ami dangerous problem. There are plenty of waste places to Ik; sure, but that doesn't help much for a majority of the airs are purchased by city people for use in cities. Parkiug laws are becoming Ihe most serious with which city officials arc faced, ami if the March increase is kept up or even closely approached for several months the situation is certain to become more complicated. The number of auto deaths is in creasing every day. In- the larger cities persons find it almost impossi ble to cross the streets in the more congested districts, and this situation is with us in spite of the fact that most modern i nuking laws are in ef fect everywhere. AMERIC AN*. The people of the United States are pouring out fortunes each year for soft drinks, Consumers of mineral and sixty waiter; bbortted the value”of products In ttilit ; ’field from $58,400,- OUtam 1914 to $115,577,000 In 1921, according to figures compiled l>y 'the Census Bureau, fin Increase of flB per cent- during the period. Tike year ftS9. however, was the banker period for nett drink manufacturers, for trade during that year was valued at more than $135,340,000. This classification covers all kinds of carbonated and fruit beverages, root beer, ginger ale. and other so-called soft drinks, but does not include nat ural spring waters. In addition to the value of products shown for the clas sified industry, establishments under other classifications added to the fig ures by reiKirting the manufacture of carbonated and fruit beverages worth $8,1>00.000 in 1914. And yet there are people who say we are spending too much for our Churches and schools. We are not ov erburdened with necessities when we can spend such vast sums each year for drinks. CODES OF STANDARDS Governing Business Relation Arc Es senial to Progress. Hot Springs. Ark.. April -5. —Expe- rience has shown written cades of standards governing business relations to be essential to the progress and de velopment of every trade and profes sion, Henry M. London, North Caro lina legislative reference librarian, de clared today in an address before the Rotary section of the American Li brary Association in session here. Each vocation requires rules pecu liar to itself, but whatever tin' busi ness or profession covered, the service alile code is characterized by the fact that it is a set of definite, concise rules of conduct —not beliefs, aims or aspirations," he continued. “Statistics recently compiled by Joseph A. Turner, show that within the year and a half. 130 trade and pro fessional associations are writing or revising their codes or standards of practice as a result of activities of their Rotary members. Conspicuous among the important professional as sociations which have not yet adopted a code of ethics, or code of standards of practice is the American Library Association. ‘‘Codes will help more than any oili er thing in the establishment of stand ards. and business and professions should develop traditions which give prestige and self respect. “Only recently the daily papers an- I bounced that the golden rule in base ball would prevail in a large western conference, the games to lie conducted under a code of ‘sporrsihangliip and courtesy’ instead of rowdyism. “A code of ethics will draw men of standards to a profession and men of standards will help to maintain the code. Service is the guiding stir of a Rotariau and may likewise be np- i plied to a librarian who serves the | public. “The experience of those organiza- | fious having a code of ethics lias j shown a great improvement in the bus- j iness methods of such organizations. “Along with the development of a quickened business men in various trades and professions have begun to feel the necessity for codes of stand ards of correct practice. “No better outline of a code of ethics should lie given than that known as Rotary's standard skeleton code, which is as follows: , “The relation of employer and em i plee. "The relation of craftsman with those from whom he makes purchases. “The relation of the craftsmen with liis fellow craftsmen. ‘'The relation of the craftsmen with professional men whose professions are interlocked with the craft. , “The relation of the craftsmen with the public generally, including the gov ernment. “The relations of the craftsman with tlie purchasing pul die. “The making and executing of con tracts. with special reference to speci fications. “Wrong practices—commercial graft, and “A concluding section requiring ob servance of the code for eontinced luembershin in the association. “In conclusion, as an act of service to business and to mankind, is it not worth while to adopt a code of ethics and to work and to live np to if. thus insuring a larger measure of friendli ness and good will among ourselves and the public and putting, into prne tire in our dailv routine the princi ples of tlie golden rule.

April “4.—Decision as to whether an investigation will bo made of charges by E. E. Dividing, president of the Prisoners Relief So ciety. Washington, that improper con ditions exist at the State Prison. Ral eigh. will be reached by the State Board of Charities and Public Welfare in its session here Friday, according to officials. The meeting had tiecn call 'd by hoard officials to meet in Greensboro ! on Friday, hut Governor Morrison an j uounced last night that he wished to have the members meet with him in the executive offices at the capital. In addition to tlie Dudding matter the Governor said he had “many other things" he wished to discuss with the board. While no authoritative statement has been given out on the subject, it has been reported in official Circles that the hoard also will take up the question of making an investigation of conditions in county convict camps, of ficials of the State Public Welfare De partment. in Raleigh, when questioned as to this report, said they had no j statement to give out until after the! board meeting. In refusing to investigate conditions I at the State Prison, following the puli-! ilication of Dudding's charges the pris- 1 lon boa id of directors issued a state- ■ meat in which it was asserted an ex-! animation conducted by the depart ment of public welfare, or any other ■ agency or agents of the law would lie j welcomed. ! “Dudding is not a citizen of this! [state," tlie board’s statement read, "and ought not to lie heard in inter ference with our governmental affairs: further his record is notoriously bad. We are of the opinion that no investi gation should be made for the further reason that each and all of us know his statement to be untrue and scur rilous." The statement contained an asser tion that seven prisoners, one of whom was a lifteen-year-ukl negro girl, had (been whipped at the central prison. Raleigh, during the two years of iqi- erinrendent George Pen's administra tion. No account was given of the number of whippings, if any. were ad ministered hi state camps. Mrs. Kate Burr Johnson, commis sioner of public welfare, who had sug gested to the chairman of the hoard of directors of the prison that an investi gation lie made of Pudding's allega tions, was called into a special '•(infer ence wt|icl) the body hold with Gov ernor fMutieron Morrison, at the lat ter's call. No details of her remarks to the directors were given out. | Chairman W. A. Biair. of the board lof charities and public welfare, also | was in the conference. Mrs. Johnson 1 stated the day after that if tiny lic it ion were taken by her department, de cision would lie reached at the quar terly meeting of the board in 1 free os born.

[ “it seems to us that those responsi ble for prison conditions in North Car !. olina, " Mrs. Johnson wrote the prison hoard chairman, "cannot afford to dis regard Pudding's charges any longer. 1 especially when as a result of tin; con-! ditions found to exist in Florida, the 1 whole south is in the limelight in a j more or less disgraceful way. We are I writing, therefore, to suggest that the) prison hoard of North Unrolina make! such investigation of Pudding's (harg-j 1 es that they wifi either lie proved or disproved to the satisfaction of the I public." , Mrs. Johnson led an unsuccessful light at the recent session of the gen-i , ernl assembly to have Hogging abolish- j ed in the state's prison system.

Musette, i ac \f v l ~~ J _ i ■ i Mothers of Famous Men , The Mother of Millard Filliniore. There seems to he somehting about the atmosphere of the old frontier that bred greatness in men, for so many America’s finest products came from what was known in the seventh cen tury ns "The Far West." Also, it Fi emed to produce Hue women. A great proportion of the mothers of these very same great men faced life on the frontier with a tremendous courage, and a notable example of this was Phoebe Millard Filliniore, mother of the thirteenth president of the United States, Millard Filliuiore. Although she was far from being a strong woman physically, Mrs. Filli more faced the hardships of life on tlie frontier without fear or complaint. She worked hard and tirelessly, and brought her children up in fear of God and love for their country. She was a woman of great good sense and a strong spirit of piety and patriotism. She was kind and brave and loyal, and she never gave in to weaknesses. She was a companion and friend to her children, who worshipped her. not be cause it was expected of thorn. Imt because of her tremendous poiver to create an atmosphere of love around her. By nature site was sunny and cheer ful. no matter what befell her. She made every effort to stave off the physical colapse which came upon her as a result of her too strenuous efforts when her children were young. Finally, however, site could hold out no longer, and became an invalid. She died before iter son reached the crowning glory of his political career. Imt she lived long enough to lie glad dened by liis eminent success in pub lic life. Next; The mother of Edmund Kean. Wkaiher Conditions Better in Cotton Growing States. Washington, April 25.—The weekly weather and crop review of the United States department of agricul ture issued today contained ' tlie fol lowing report on cotton and other southern crops: "The first half of tlie week wits' too' cool for lies! results in the eastern portion of the cotton belt, but much warmer weather prevailed during the latter part and there was less rainfall in most central and western cotton growing districts. In general, these conditions gave a rather marked im provement iu the cotton growing states. “Tlie week brought more favorable weather for field work in Texas and Louisiana, although the soil continued too wot in many localities, particularly in central and southeastern Texas, Chopping was in progress in southern j Texas northward to Corpus Cliristi ' and the progress of the crop was re ported ns generally fair, except in the J wet areas.
