In support of the assertion that the present credit expansion is due mainly to the- larger financial requirements, ;- the board said it had found little evi f dence of accumulated stooks and there fore no proof of speculative holdings. It has been found certain, the board i went on, that while there has been some ,speculation as is alway# true in a pe riod of advancing prices, there is every 3? evidence that the great volume of pro duction. in recent months has been moving through regular channels and is being absorbed in consumers’ buying. ■; The larger marketing of manufactur ' ed products is shown, the board declar ed, through th'e records of rail trans portation taken in conjunction with the fact the first of the year inventories of retail stores showed only moderate Stocks on hand. , The hoard viewed the general condi tion with extreme optimism and declar ed that it represented afvast increase an buying power in every section. In creased buying, it,.was explained, re sulted from fuller employment and .larger pay rolls,” and from some in crease in the net proceeds to the farm er in the sale of his products.” Furth er, the board said, it is known that in years, when production is large, both consumption and saving are also great est. | To Redouble Effort to | Check Smuggling! WASHINGTON, March 4—Indications were given at the treasury today that a new effort had been started to check smuggling.^ Although official, comment was withheld, it appeared that re doubled energy was beiing put forward to curtail the illegal bringing into this . country of liquor and narcotics as well as to strengthen the vigilance against smuggling of merchandise.

Stewart, chairman of the board of di-r ! rectors of the Standard Oil company of .Indiana, said in a Statement issued ' here tonight that in his opinion the re ' port of the- LaFollette, oil investigating > committee was unfair to his company) '. and to the oil industry generally. The i!‘ Standard of Indiana, Mr. Stewart de ’ dared, not only-exercises no monopoly but has no understanding or arrang“ , ment of any character with any of the 'T other Standard interest. He also as serted that the investigation had been so conducted as to deprive the Stan ds dard of Indiana of all opportunity to |i; day its case before the public.

B.C.Romedty Co. ^Durham,N.C.^P YOUR DRUGGISTS/W Farming Must Become a Scientific Industry " RALEIGH, March 4.—(By Associ ated Press.)—Farming must .become a true industry, using moderri business methods and must offer such attrac tions as to resist the lure of the city if it is to succeed in profits and as a life vocation, Frank Parker, statistician of the North Carolina and United States dejiartmenfs of agriculture, declared tonight. , . Every other interest is organized and wprks co-ooeratively, he continued, us ing facts, costs, distribution and other statistical information . that insures reasonable safety in their operations as individual concerns. “As a part of their essential or basic information is price trends,” he said, “supply, stocks and distributing agen cies, all of these have an effect on prices, but most so on the products of least organized producers. Thus farm products vary most. and reflect the above influences. “Just as in studying character, weather, crop growth arid other sub jects, so it is in analyzing price re ports for trends and. the causes of fluctuations. Since production, „ grow ing conditions, stocks' and other re ported factors lend their Influences, it is possible for th-. farmer, as with the trade, to anticipate reasonable-trends and likewise to deduct these condi tions.by knowing prices prevailing in different localities. "There is a stabilizing effect by the trade having an exchange of price and market reports. .Tjies-e reports in the producers’ hands," arid especially 'so if followed closety as co-operative organ izations do, permit of withholding and preventing cuts or.selling to best ad vantage, The farmer who produces at' greatest risks, many of which are iso lation, weather, perishables, no stor age or organized distributing agency, needs the dnarket trends (prioes) even more so than does the trader who has easier access to the active marketing conditions,’* he said in urging planters to follow accurate,. oficial information of market conditions. Republicans Run Away From Record •WASHINGTON, March i—'The bill to provide $10,000,000 for the purchase of nitrate and arsenic to fight the boll weevil passed *the senate, but failed to reach a vote in the house. The failure was caused by the deliberate refusal of Mondell to present the rule. This caused a filibuster that literally punctured the tire of the Republican machine. Senator Overman has shown Just what the Republicans tried to do with their claims for economy. This has been printed.’ No congress, in the last 15 years, has been criticized more than the one that passed today. Instead of backing the administration, Republi cans are running away from it. SEEKING “GUNWOMAN” NEW YORK, March 4.—Investigation into the murder of . Frederick Schneid er, Bronx contractor, took a new trend today when police began a search for a mysterious "gunwoman” who they say had been hired by jealous business riv als to kill. him. ' While * not abandoning the theory that Schneider hacf been slain through jealousy, the new angle tp the murder mystery gained ground with detectives when it' was learned that the contrac tor had,planited*'i8«|l,0OOiOOO loan with, which to build a nilmber-of apartments on property owned in Br&nx. His great success in putting through large real estate projects angered certain rivals who conspired "to get him,” police be lieve, -and a woman was selected for the job. - ' Meanwhile,’'the- alibi of Mrs. Anna Buzzi, with whom Schneider lived for seven years, gained further force. Her attorneys plan to demand a reduction in her bail tomorrow, and if refused will again apply for a habeas corpus writ to obtain -her freedom, it was said. WILL VISBT RUSSIAN, a WASHINGTON, March 4.—A party of senators and representatives is being organized, it was learned tonight, to visit Russia next summer as guests of the .soviet government.

J)ar« Washed, f 1.00 Free Crank Caae Service LIVE OAK SERVICE STATION Telephone No. 2451 Seventh and Ann Street* In Wall Street Circles Continued Strength Features Market and Firmness In Commodity , Market Was Main Reflection of Strong Industrial Situ ation—Metals Make Strong Advances NEW YORK, March 4.—(By the As sociated Press.)—^Continued strength in commodity and' security prices and additional Indications of great indus trial activity featured the past week in finance- and commerce. Firmness in commodity prices was in the main a reflection of the strong'industrial situ ation, steel prices again "moving toward higher levels and the non-ferrerous materials, particularly copper, making a material advance. In steel, buyers are sflll anxious to obtain places on the manufacturers books, and the makers haiA now raised their rate operationsr close to 90 per cent, of capacity while prices‘ of finished steel products > have risen so that the Iron Age index stands at “27.49 as compared with $18.10 a year ago. Cotton is another commodity which displayed recovery strength during the past week. New high records were achieved, the May future reaching $30.84 cents. Again the movement is partly a reflection of large scale in dustrial activity, The census bureau’s report on mill takings during January having established the‘fact that high prices 'have not prevented an extraor dinary rate of consumption. Mean while, reports of stocks of the cfomodi ty, both at southern points and at the ports, .confirm other indications of a strong statistical position and re-en force the conclusion that supplies will be scanty before the new crop comes into bearing. It is estimated' that a crop of something like 13,000,006 bales, which is 8,1100,000 more than that of the past year, will be needed to restore supply situation to a normal basis. Railroad car loadings continue to add* their' testimony a*- to the - better state; of business. - gufrpnt figures ex ceed all previous records for the Rea son of the year, sl change which has persisted for the past four months. The first 52 roads report for January show an estimate of over 44 million which is nearly double the amount earned by these roftds In Januhry a year1 ago. A consideration-■-which is causing concern; Is some quarters is the pos sibility of-g Shortage of labor when out of dooTs- work increases In the spring. Labor Supplies already are short In the stepl industry and there Is talk of further Increase In wages. Nor is this condition limited to the steel indus try. Thete is a disposition, however, not to magnify the difficulty and to hope for a reasonable attitude on the ■jgirt of both lanor and capital, the feeling being that the manner In which this problem is met will go far to wards determining the character of business during the rest of the year. Following the moderate rise In In terest rates, which preceded and fol lowed the limiting of the federal re serve bank rate at New York, the money market has settled down on the new basis. The bank returns Indicate that the action of the Nevr Tort and Boston banks in bringing their rates In line with those at the other reserve institutions resulted . In a shrinkage of rediscounts at the former Institu tions. It also is considered significant that these banks gained largely in their proportionate holdings of the federal reserve Systems gold settlement fund. Taken,as a whole, however, the bank ing situation appears to have under-x, gone no marked change. George R. Hodges Is Dead at Dunn DUNN, March 4.—George Klley Hodges, aged 81 years, one of the pio neer citizens of Harnett county. Is dead. Deceased lived here practically all his life, though he was here many years before the present town of Dunn was heard of. He owned much land In and around Dunn and before he retired from active business life several years ago, he was a very successful farmer, and took an active interest in politics. He is survived by seven children—five daughters, Mesdames Allen Butler, Sam Pittman, Moab Carr, T. L. Anderspn, Lee Paul; and two sons, M. F. and J, N. Hodges, all of .whom live in and near' Dunn. - Mr. Hodges was a Mason and took an active interest In church work. He was also a Confederate veteran, having served with the forces of Lee and Jack son throughout the Civil. War.. For n-any years he was a magistrate and many cases were “aired” before his court. In his passing, Harnett county and Dunn lost one of their oldest, best known and most-loved, citizens. Fire or unknown origin destroyed the* country store of -Godwin and Max-1 well, near Dunn, together with a stock of goods valued at $7,000. The-1o,sb Is I partially covered by insurance. A] dwelling owned by Mr. Godwin caught fire the same day, but the flames were extinguished before much damage re sulted to this building. W, F. Dawson, who had served as head of the police department of Dunn for more than a year, has resigned, his resignation going into effect March 1. Mr. Dawson succeeded U. S. Page as chief of police here. His successor has not been named, though it is expected that the mayor and town commission ers will elect a man at an early date. Fifteen men and boys, many of them prominent Dunn citizens, have been be fore Recorder R. X* Godwin this week on the charge of gambling. The young er of the transgressors were taxed with the costs, while the older ones were fined $5 each and cost. These cases resulted from the activities of Policemen W. C. Dixon and- W. F. Nip> pers, who flushed two .“coveys" of gamblers Saturday night. One covey, composed of boys, ages ranging from 12 to 20 years, was found shooting craps in an old stable; while the other “covey” was caught playing poker in an up-town of ice. Approximately $60,000 has. been paid out for cotton on the Dunn market sinoe Tuesday, when for the first time since the “glorious” days of 1920; the price advanced to the 30-cent level, where it has remained since. Wednes day 200 bales were sold here, while the sales Thursday totaled more than 100 bales. A total of of $30,000 was paid out Wednesday alone for the staple. More than 21,000 bales of last year’s crop have been sold on the. Dunn market or “pooled” in-a local co-opera tive warehouse. Some who were hold-, ing for 30 cents have decided to hold fbr a still higher price, which they may realize. .

No cases of more than the ordinary Importance are on the calendar for this term, Major W. N. Harriss, clerk of the court stated last night, the prin cipal thing of interest being the fact that a list of the inactive cases has been made by the clerk at the-order of Judge Sinclair in order that the congestion of the docket could me ma terially lessened.

BODY LaFollette Committee Sees Stan dard Companies in Com plete Control .■ t——r y ;1 WASHINGTON, JMarph .4.—Complete control'and domination of the oiilndus try by-the Standard companies.- In vio lation •'"of the 19X1 dissolution decree of the supreme court was ohiitged by the La -Foiletteoil investigating com mittee in its report presented to the senate today after three months in quiry into, conditions and prices in the, oil-business.' ‘ 1 The Standard companies were declar ed In the report to exercise this control in such a manner as to fix "the price which^ the producer of crude oil re-1 ceives at'the well, the price which the refiner recMvas for’ his gasoline and> kerosene as well' as the retail price I paid by the consumer.” I The report-^declared the committee through its inquiry had found that the control was exercised through methods, "more subtle" than those used by the Standard OS company of New Jersey •and its subsidiaries prior to the disso lution decree and with the result that “in some respects the industry as. a whole, as well as the public, are more completely at the mercy of the Stand ard Oil interests-" than before the su preme court forced,the splitting up of the New Jersey company. The methods of control as' set forth in the report include division of mar keting territory between the various Standard companies and almost the same basis as before the dissolution, ! ownership of the principal pipe lines, inter locking stock ownership, fixing of prices in the producing fields, ‘ex cessive and discriminatory freight rates, and ownership of the basic pat enifc for cracking, for gasoline manu facturing processes. "If a few great oil companies are permitted to manipulate prices for the next few years as they have been doing feinoe 1920” the report . asserted after setting forth the evils in the industry as seen by the committee, “the people of this country must be prepared, be fore long, to pay at least one dollar a gallon for gasoline.” The investigation conducted by the ] committee, the report said, established these facts respecting the retail prices of gasoline and kerosene. “First the Standard companies fix those prices throughout the country and such prices in contiguous territory between the different standard compa* nies vary all the way from one to three cents a gallon for gasoline. "Seoond, the companies of the Stand ard7^ group co-operate with", each other where such co-operation seems desira ble or necessary In order to meet the competition of independents.” With respeot to pipe lines the report said that while they “were declared by law to be common carriers many years ago no step's have been taken to make them common carriers in fact.” Criti cism is voiced by the report in closing in the leasing by the department of In terior of oil reserve, the assertion be ing made that the reserves, "should have been held1 In sacred trust foy the benefit of the whole people.” American “Civil Union” Holds Miners’' Meeting ——f— LOGAN, W. Va.. "March 4.—The Amer ican Civil Liberties union held Its “free speech” meeting on the steps of -the Logan county court house tonight undisturbed. Sheriff Don Chafln from Ablaony, W. Va., smilingly heard the speakers describe the purpose for which they appeared. Several hundred Logan citizens crowded the square in front of the building and cheered lust ily, although at tipies with a derisive tongue. Arthur G. Haynes, attorney, was the chief speaker and drew the major por tion of applause as well as some heck ling with his recital, in a semi-hum orous vein of his experiences in behalf of the civil liberties union in Pittsburgh during the coal strike last year. The meeting was followed by one of the local post of the American legion from which was given out a resolu tion protesting to Sheriff Chafln, "on behalf of the 1,698 boys of Logan who served under the American flag in the World War against' the presence in Logan of representatives of-tne Ameri can Civil Liberties union; which has a nationally known record for disloyalty and! anti-Americanism: and which has launched a cmapaign to stir up strife in the county of Logan.” Sheriff Chafln followed with a formal statement commenting on the resolu-. tion in which he said “it Is not telling me anything new, because I have in vestigated and know of the record for disloyalty of the American Civil Liber ties union, but I had no fear of thejn fluence its speakers would have in-an open meeting.” POLICEMAN KILLS NEGRO JACKSONVILLE, Fla.. March 4.— Ashley Cox, 28, negro, was killed by a policeman here tonight after he had run amuck with a pistol, shooting and probably fatally wounding two white men.

T. Johns, who was of duty, heard the shot and went to in vesti^ate. He was joined by Abraham Griffin, 34. Several blocks from the scene of the shooting, they met Cox.
