Sincerely Hopes They AH May be Adopted CONSIDERS THEM WISE Tar Heel Congressmen Leave lor Home Districts Senator Overman Fought to Last Ditch for Cotton Relief. (Special Star Telegram.) 'Washington, D. C, Oct. 24. Senator Simmons gave out the following: state ment tonight: "For some time my time has been so completely taken up in connection with important national legislation with respect to which heavy personal responsibility was thrust upon me, I have, not bad .time to give that mature study and consideration to the proposed amendments to our Constitution which 3the importance of the subject demand- ed. On Thursday last the Congress ifinally passed the war revenue bill, of 'which I had charge in the Senate as j chairman .of the Committee on Fi inance. Since then I have closely stud ied the amendments. After careful ex 'amination and mature reflection, It is I my opinion that these amendments, one and all, are wise and personally I shall j support them, and I sincerely hope that they may be .adopted at the com- 'ing election and become a part of the (organic law of the State." . Tar Heels Homeward Bound. ' Practically all of the North Carolina jroembers of Congress left town to- - Jnight for their homes. Most of them fwill make speeches in their districts next week. Representatives Webb. IGodwin, Stedman, Claude Kit chin and Pou left on late trains tonight, while Representative Page will leave here iBunday night tor "Wilkesboro where he fwill speak Monday. . Mr. Page will also speak Tuesday in (Davidson county, the exact place to be determined by the -county chairman; Thursday in Davie county; Friday night Jin Randleman; Saturday in Montgom ery county, and will close the cam s taaig-n at Carthage Monday, the day. be Jfore election. . ' Representative Webb, one of the jinoEt popular and most . Influential Democrats in Congress, will place him self in the hands of the Democratic .party upon his arrival at Shelby ..to morrow nlght. He expects to make a -speech every day from; Monday until election. J . ,' Senator Overman left tonight for Chapel Hill to be at the bedside of his ; sister, Mrs. A. W. Mangum, who is .- seriously ill. The Junior ( senator ex pects to be in Salisbury by Monday and will be ready to make speeches wherever lje is needed. He expects jto, ' be assigned to Reprsentative Dough-1 ton's district. Overman on Cotton Relief.' Senator Overman expressed regret that no cotton legislation was enacted. He said he had fought to the last ditch .but was confronted with opposition from both Democratic and Republican .sources. Mr. Overman said his inten sion was not paternalism or socialism, but a war measure designed to meet an emergency. "The bill only asked the government jf or the loan to the people of the South - of its credit for one year in order that ' rnot only the South, btft the whole country might be saved from hard times," said Senator Overman. . "It in no way proposed to burden the Wsountry but the people of the South proposed with this credit to burden .themselves. This cotton question was not a-local one. peculiar to theJ3outh, - but was a national and International question as well. The United States now owes England $200,000,000 and If we could have a stable price for cotton, we would be saved from sending gold out of this country to pay our debts," Senator Overman said. President Wilson is In . deep sympa- Whv with th condition-of the dpotiIa of the South and the President still hopes to work out a plan that will bring re lief without legislation. The Presi- tdent now has plans under consideration which will help the situation. Senator Overman said he was proud of the fact that he is to be the first senator to be jlina, which is provided for under the Constitutional amendment. P. R. A. yHAS NEW PLAN FOR ; -.

Pell & Company, took the witness stand in bankruptcy pro ceedings today and told, the court .that . his firm's debts totaled ? 9,883,361 and assets 8,428,906. t Of this Indebtedness, he said, 60 per - (pent was owing on cotton, exchange Transactions, $3,500,000 to Col.

Graham Ramsey's Speed and George Tandy's Toe Tell Tale Only Vir ginia Left to be Con4 quered. Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 24. Graham Ramsey's speed and -George Tandy's toe tell the tale of Carolina's victory over Vanderbilt in the most terrific struggle ever witnessed on Dudley field. The score, was 10 to 9. Vander bilt drew first blood with a touchdown. Tandy then put a beautiful dropkick between the bars for three points. Van derbilt returned the compliment with another dropkick.. Then Grahma Ramsey, the 18ry ear old left tackle for Carolina, won the game by blocking a Vandy kick on the five-yard line and falling on the ball just across the goal line. The score was now tied. Tandy, Carolina's peer less center, calmly planted the ball be tween the posts for the coveted point. Then for a heart-breaking quarter and a half the two teams fought like tigers. Again and again the ball ap proached one goal only to be lost on downs. "Time out" for injuries and sheer exhaustion was called repeat-: edly. The sun set. The electric lights strung over the field were turned on, but still the two elevens struggled and fought. Gradually the Commodores were forced back.' In desperation they offered up with forward pass after forward pass. Fuller and Bridges broke up every one. Finally Vandy punted. Fuller re turned 60 yards. Carolina ran a series of plays, gradually advancing the ball. The time keeper rushed between the lines and called "Time over." Several of the exhausted players fell in their tracks and were carried from the field. For the second time In his tory the Commodores were defeated by a Southern team on their own field. j Sewanee turned the trick in 1909.
