The principal speakers of the meet-; ing were L. W, Morril, district organizer, and Mr. Lee, a co-operative association tobacco grader and organizer. Mr. Lee's talk was of cs* pecial interest to the growers.

The co-operative news letters were read afid various points discussed in detail by the growers. The growers J. States. Senator ^rcoichoart, a Republican, who was elected vflth the support of the Farmer-Labor btoc to the seat previously held by Senator William S. Kenyan, in his first public state-' meat since his return to the United States touched on the presidential , situation. Asserting that he had. read only three of the speeches which President Harding has delivered on his tour, Mr, Brookhart said: i "I should think that about throe more speeches like.these would elect' Henry Ford by about 10,000,000 ma-' Jority, if the President is a candi-; date. It is time the Republican party j was looking for a candidate who will | fight for the domnrfon people and against Wall street. Some one like Judge Kenyon should be drafted fori this purpose." Eleswhere in his statement the senator declared that the Russian! soviet, government Was second in sta- j | ointy oniy to tnat 01 me unitea States and that Russia soon would , he making inroads upon the grain': markets of the country. j, i4The thing that demands imme-j diate attention ia an extra, session' of congress ia the agricultural sit-1;' .nation;' declared Senator Brokhart.

Durham Herald. MRS. VANDERBILT TOURING EASTERN CAROLINA. Raleigh, July 16?Edith Vandefrbilt, President of the North Carolina1 Agricultural Society, has.just com-1 P'eted a tour of Eastern North Caro-' Una in the interest of the State Fair.j She went on the warpath for the > purpose of urging closer cooperation 1 between? the county and community! fairs and the State- Fair. She met} with a gratifying response from the large crowds that heard her the past'1 week. She spoke at Monroe, Wilmington, New Bern, ICinston, Goldsboro and WUson,. and visited several other i points ih the State.

Her poke bonnet hat caught the i fancy of her audiences, and many all Tar Heel farmer is ready to wager : that she is going to make the Fair I this year the big success that she' has in mind. Certainly she will if! I those who heard her speak can aid her in realizing her ambition, it !s i; declared, for these farmers found! that she is a real womanly woman! without frills or furbelows, Mrs. Vanderbilt in her addresses i explained that the proper function' Dt a State Fair-or any fair for that! matter is not the amusement of; pleasure seekers but the develop-! mont along proper lines of education , in agriculture, Industry and general I knowledge. She ventured to say that there is' no other State on the Atlantic sea- j, board that can present so much in ' the way of natural resources as North ' Carolina and she ventured further to ' prediot that a State Fair on a Statewide basis and financially organized would do more for North Carolina in < five years than million dollars spent < n way.

Boston, Mass., July 17.-?A suggestion that negroes show a sprit of, magnanimity and 'yie^d to the white people of Alabama in the controversy over the negro veteran hospital at Tuskegee Institute was put forth here today in a statement by Wallace Battle president and founder of Oklana Industrial School of Oklana, Miss., who is himself a negro. Battle would have the hospital put in charge of a white superintendent, a southerner, recommended by negro physicians, and appointed by the federal government, the other physicians and nurses to be all negroes. * In case of the death or removal of the superintendent, the negro medical staff would always first recommend to the government the southern white superintendent they wished to work with. ?kBattle's. statement points out that the contrcvefSy is of national - - cern and that the three elements involved the federal government, the y white people of the country and negroes of the United States, have apparently all set out.Jja. yield^nothing. Its wise solution, he believes, means incalculable good to all concerned. Oncle -<5dtm t&sfa ,?,? ? ?. ' Sloe SrEPPlMG TAk?9 i VDO AWAJV . - AMC i HOT aheap/ - ;m - ' A ' ' ' ," " " _ - *
