Pa. 8-21-lt Gas War Waged Here-20 Cents The "gasoline war has spread to Wil mington and the city yesterday was in the grasp of that very distant relative of Mars. Motorists who called at garages yes terday morning found the petrol sell ing at 24 'cents a gallon, a standard price in these 'parts here of late. A little later in the morning a ga rage man slashed the quotation to 23 cents, whereupon things started. The arrow denoting the price dropped from 23 to 22 and then to 21. Before the print shops closed early yesterday . af ternoon one flllins station had out cir culars telling the world, or at least that part of it in Wilmington that is interested in gasoline, that the price of the Rockefeller Juice at its place ot business was 20 cents, two thin dimes, four jits. The price may have even dropped under the 20 cent mark, but not at any of the gas peddling stations in or near the center of the city, so far as could be ascertained. Motorists who have been paying above 20 cents for gaso line for lo, these many days, are hope ful there will be no armistice in the .gasoline war. But, even though the price ascends again today, the war en abled some motorists to fill the tanks of their cars with 20-cent gasoline. FALL STYLE EXPOSITION AT EFIRD'S THIS WEEK Buyer Returns With Many Handsome Wearables Miss Alma Padgett, buyer and man ager In. charge of the ready-to-wear department at Efird's, has Just returned from New York wliere she has been for the past 10 days selecting garments for fall selling in the popular depart ment of the local Eflrd store over which she presides.

On that day the leaders of the denomination in this section of the state, and others who have the work at heart, will gather at Burgaw for a great meeting. Every pastor, deacon, church officer, Sunday school officer, Woman's Mis sionary society officer, Y. W. A. officer, B. Y. P. U. worker, and all other prom- inent members of the Baptist churches have been invited to attend. Rev. J. H. Powers, of Burgaw, has been appointed superintendent of evan gelism for the association, and this meeting has been called by him for the purpose of organizing for a great evan gelistic campaign.- Mr. Powers says that the event is primarily a joint Sun day school picnic in which the mem ers of the schools of Burgaw, Wallace,' Rose Hill, Riverside, Riley's Creek, Teachey and Moore's Creek will par ticipate. These schools will go to Bur gaw to celebrate and do honor to the visitors in the attendance contest which has been waging for some time and which will end today. Mr. Powers estimates that there will be anywhere from 1,000 to 1,200 people in the town that day, and he is anticipating one of the greatest get-together meetings the Baptists of eastern North Carolina have ever known. Great preparations are being made to handle the large crowds of visitors and a program full of interest and in spiration is being arranged. It is hoped that the meeting will reach such a pitch that the workers will go out determined to win many souls to the kingdom during the period of the cam paign. One of the principal features of the day, and one in which every one pres ent will have a part, will be' the picnic dinner at the noon hour. This will be spread on the church lawn. People from miles around will come In with baskets packed to the brim with good things to eat and no one need have any fear of being slighted. The purpose for which the meeting at Burgaw has been called is in order to lay plans and work out ways and means for carrying on an intensive evangelistic campaign throughout the association during the fall months. During this period the Baptists all over the state of North Carolina will be engaged in the same sort of work. It was thought best to hold the meeting in connection with the Sunday school picnic as it would bring together a larger number of workers. Rev. Mr. Powers has outlined a tentative pro gram for the gathering, which is as follows: Executive committee meeting and several inspirational addresses in the forenooni dinner at noon; a great con ference of all workers in the after noon. Immediately following the campaign meeting, the Baptist young people of the association are planning to hold a big rally. This meeting will be held for the purpose of stimulating greater interest in the work of the B. Y. P. U. in the association, and more especially in the churches along the Wilmington and Weldon road. This section is known as the northern district of the Wilmington associational B. Y. P. U4 and is in charge of Miss Berta Hocutt. of Ashton, the vice-president. Several prominent leaders of the young people's work will be present and make inspir ational talks. L. F. Gore, of Wilming ton, the president of the State B. Y. P. U. convention, has signified his inten tion to be on hand and help make the campaign meeting and the rally a sue- All Baptists of the Wilmington as sociation, whether they are connected with any of the organized work or not, are invited to attend. Quite a number of the pastors and workers of the various churches of Wilmington and vicinity are making plans to go. The Wilmington party will leave here on the morning train and return that night. TROTZKT TRIES TO EXPLAIN INCONSISTENCIES OF SOVIET RIGA, Latvia, Aug. 20. Leon Trotz ky, the bolshevik war minister in Rus sia, attempted to explain to the dele gates composing -the recent congress of the third Internationale at Moscow the seeming contradiction In the acts of the soviet leaders who are restoring a' limited measure, of capitalism in Russia while advocating, in speeches to the Internationale, the abolition of capital elsewhere. The Pravda quotes Trotzky as say ing that compromises with capitalism were justifiable in Russia as the dic tatorship of the proletariat has been firmly established there, but that no compromises were allowable to Reds attempting to bring about revolution elsewhere. The official bolshevik viewpoint as expressed in speeches by Lenine 'and In their various newspapers, is that all changes being made in Russia, all con cessions being granted to capital and all seeming digressions from a strict communist policy are either made nec essary by the poor, economic condition of the country or are essential to per mit communism to exist In the future. The disastrous economic condition in Russia was frankly admitted in speeches at the congress by various Russian delegates. Trotzky is quoted as having told the delegates that "it is easy to be a communist if one looks only at the cheering picture of red flags at the Internationale, but the true communist is he who can still be one and look upon Moscow's starving chil dren." . , ' j HORSE-DRAWN PATROL GONE BOSTON, Aug. 20. The day of the horse-drawn patrol wagon has passed, as far as the Boston police department is concerned. The last specimen of the old "Black Maria," long In service in the Hyde Park district, has been re placed by a motor driven machine. The old time vehicle will not be cast en tirely aside, however, police officials said, but will be held for possible serv ice when winter snows make the "motor patrol useless.

BOLL .WEEVIL MENACE WORRIES ROBESONIANS Is Playing Havoc With Cotton Crop, Especially in South ern Part of County (Special to The Star) . LTJMBERTON, Aug. 20 How to com bat the" boll weevil, . is . the general topic of Robeson farmers, especially in the southern part of the . county, where the weevils are playing havoo with the cotton crop. A meeting at tended by many farmers were there from far and near to see the weevil and the destructive work he is doing in Mr, Gaddys cotton. He will not make over one-third of a usual crop. The meeting was addressed by O. O. Dukes, county farm demonstrator. He told of the beest known methods of de stroying the weevil and urged diver sification of crops and the raising of cattle, poultry, etc. The appearance of the weevils will result in the grow ing of many more acres of foodstuffs in Robeson next year. The week closing last night was a record one, both in number of pounds sold and high prices, on the Lumber ton tolacco market for the season. Prices Tuesday and Wednesday were much more satisfactory, but there was a decline in the price yesterday. Next week promises to be another busy one on the market here, and it is predict ed that prices will be higher than on Friday. Edwin Tiddy is perhaps the young est Sunday school superintendent in the world. Tiddy, who is under 15 years old, was elected superintendent of the Philadelphus Presbyterian Sun day school, near RedVSprings, when he was 14 years old. He has served in that capacity since last April. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. William Tid dy, who live near Philadelphus. The Robeson county board of educa tion has requested the county commis sioners to levy an additional 3 cents on the $100 valuation for school pur poses, making a total of 43 cents. The (.nmmisslnnprs were aslced for a lew of 43 cents before the levy was made afl the last meeting of the county commis sioners. The commissioners only levied 40 cents. T. L. Johnson, attorney for the school board and a member of the board, was instructed to bring suit against the commissioners in case they refuse to make the additional 3 cent levy. Mrs. , Elizabeth Pitman, well known East Lumberton woman, died at her home after an illness of 15 months' duration. Deceased is survived by her husband, Thomas Pitman, and seven children. The funeral was con ducted from the home by Rev. A. E. Paul, pastor of East Lumberton Bap tist church, f which deceased was a member, and interment was made in Meadowbrook cemetery. Mrs. Pitman was 50 years old. LESS FRENCH UNEMPLOYMENT PARIS, Aug. 20.
