Skottowe Wanna maker of the American Cotton associa tion, on the one hand, and Dr. Miller Reece Hutchinson on the other, the latter has been notified by Mr. Wanna maker that the doctor’s appointment as managing director of the associa tion’s anti-boU weevil campaign has been revoked. Meanwhile, Dr. Hutch inson proposes to carry on the scien tific work he had mapped out, and for that purpose a new organization was effected at New York |arly in the week. Dr. Hutchinson was made man aging director of the new organization. It is said that New York interests promise ample finances to back the Hutchinson plans. Mr. tVannamaker heads the regular cotton growers’ organization and it is unfortunate that differences have aris en at a time when the fight against the weevil should be pushed as never before. Bankers at the north, cotton mill men, cotton- brokers and fertilizer manufacturers seem to be willing to put up the money for all sorts of a fight against the weevil, and the assur ance is given that the scientific work proposed by Dr. Hutchinson will be vigorously undertaken. President Wan namaker’s organization is also strong ly supported, and a statement which he sent out from headquarters at St. Matthews, S. C., contained this: The American Cotton association is putting in operation 1,500 to 2,000 demonstration farms on which cotton will be produced by latest and most scientific cultural and poison methods. In the operation of these farms we have the closest co-operation and assistance of na tional and state agricultural col leges and existing agricultural or - ganizations and enjoy most friend ly relations with the farmers and ■ allied business interests. Through a special committee cer tain members of the New York cot ton exchange, realizing the serious ness of the situation and the vital necessity for a solution of the boll weevil problem, raised approxi mately $100,0.00 for conducting these demonstration farms. We also have assurance of the fullest co-operation and liberal financial support from various other lines of industry throughout the nation for our demonstration and educational work. Our plans also provide for the creation of an independent scien tific research commission, compos — ed of the ablest scientists of the United States, which in co-opera . tlon with existing federal and state agencies, will endeavor to discover the most successful method for controlling or exterminating the 1 ravages of the boll weevil. North Carolina would be a good place for the location of a few of those experimental farms. Nothing more ef fectual against the weevil could possi bly be more dependable than building up the^BOil for producing a greater yield of cotton per acre. At a recent j j meeting of some of the anti-weevil forces at Memphis it was seriously sug gested that acreage be reduced and : fertilizers eliminated. That surely would be a cinch for the weevil. If the acreage is to be reduced, the use of fertilizers should be doubled. Growing more cotton on an acre would enable cotton growers to take chances on the weevil. The weevil is a glutton v for small production, since it takes all f wd leaves the grower the stalks. Having been unable to secure coal ;* from the Ruhr, ^Germany is now im porting coal from' Norfolk. j A dishwasher in a Kansas City hotel did a little financing for himself and ’ got away with $50,000. What could > a real guy do among the growing crop of suckers in this country? > ) Sees Early War in Europe --o—'• After having spent almost a year in Europe where he went to present claims against the German govern ment, former United States Senator i. H. Lewis of Illlinois,i reached New York last Wednesday orpfhe steamship Majestic., Mrs. Lewis accompanied the senator and they saw a great deal of Europe. Mr. Lewis tells the newspa per men that unless the United States intervenes in European affairs another war is bound to break out at an early day. He believes there will be war in southwestern Europe in a month. ®It is the opinion of the former Illinois senator that a terrible disaster is pend ing in Europe and he expresses- the view that if the American government will not intervene for peace, the Amer ican people should take the matter in their own hands. He had occasion to observe that European conditions are growing worse, and he can foresee what strikes him as an upheaval in Turkey and the whole of the Balkan states. ‘ The Turks have rejected the Lau sanne peace pact, but they hope some way will be found to have the confer ence reconvened. They have determ ined to refuse to consider the peace pact in its present shape, and while they hope the allies will make further concessions, they are preparing for war. The Turks have an army of 275,000 nen, but the Greeks have re cruited their ariqy and are confident that if v 'ar is resumed the Greeks can defeat l emal’s army. Meanwhile, the Balkan states are in a ferment, and when tl e war starts ove& there is no telling where it will end. The allies are not so much worried' over southwestern Europe as they are about grave possibilities in the French operations in 4he Ruhr. For the past few days the British papers have be come more pessimistic. American Negroes for the Ruhr —-o—— A New York announcement confirms the request that the . French govern ment has contracted for 2,500 to 6,000 American negro miners and .laborers for work in the Ruhr territory of Ger many. These negro laborers are being picked up in the West Virginia coal mining region, and the first contingent is to leave New York Thursday on the steamship Orduna. However, the state department at Washington makes the statement the department had never heard of the proposal to send Ameri can miners to Germany. t The Germans are very much, stirred up over the prospect of having negro laborers dumped in German territory and the population is frantic over the prospect. The German government has not protested yet to the United States government but it is likely to do so. The Harry V. Dougherty detective agency, New York, made this labor contract with the French government. Hei-e is a statement given out Wednes day after he had returned from France on the steamship Majestic: “I conducted negotiations with Jevfeau, French ' commissioner in charge of labor in the Ruhr,” Mr. Dougherty said. "Under the terms the Americans are to receive $7 a day net with food and lodging and compensation in" the event of in juries. At least 500 will leave on the .15th to be followed by other details until enough men have been supplied. I plan to send 2,500 but it may be that 5,000 will be neces , sary.” Mr. D’Sugherty also stated that his brother George S. Dougherty had tak en up this labor export question with Ambassador Jusserand at Washington, and that the French ambassador has been in touch with Secretary Hughes in order that no international compli cations migjit^,. Roafiibly ensue. The state department says it knows of no such arrangement. The Dougherty people say the French tried Arabian labor In the Ruhr coal mines but they were found to be unfitted, for the work. Eastern* Carolina’s busy time will soon be here. The refrigerator trains ] are-being gotten in order for the move ment of the biggest strawberry crop shipped out of the Wilmington district during the last 20 years. CONTEMPORARY^ VIEWS. -0 WHY FRENCH ARE PESSIMISTIC An increasing number of reports em anating from French -sources are pes simistic in tone as-regards the Ruhr occupation. This Is partly because Frenchmen on the wholfe. are "in the dark” as to the political slgniflcanse of the venture, partly because they are worried over its economic after effects. So long as thy thought the move was directed solely to the collection of rep arations, they were wholeheartedly be hind, it, but recently a number of doubts have risen in their minds. In the first place, no reparations are be ing collected, but instead heavy finan cial burdens are being added to those of the already depleted national ex chequer. Secondly, and more import ant, they fear that cash or goods rep arations are not what the French gov ernment is out to collect but that an nexation or permanent industrial con trol are what it aims at. Besides being in the dark as to the political outcome of this venture, the average Frenchman is honestly worried about how it Is going to affect his per- , sonal day to day economic; affairs. Prices are rising rapidly, industries are I shuting down for lack; of eOal, people , are talking about a French ‘.‘flight from I the franc” similar to <tbe> German flight | from the mark. .'Taxes'Will rish if mil- j ltary outlays continue on the present scale. j He therefore wants to. know what it ! is all about.

V In 1920 he ah-' nonneed , his . candidacy, a little later -withdrew it, and then renewed it. Such ’vacillation has usually been regarded as fatal, but it seemed to make no dif ference in the outcome s,t Chicago. There can be no doubt that in 1924, as in 1920, Mr, Hardihg will finally make up his mind to run. If he fbund it im possible to resist the plea Of his friends when he had no particular claim to the nomination, and When his chances of getting it were generally considered poor, he can not be expected to resist them pow. The fact* is that work on his behalf'has already eom-menped. There have been signs of activities in favor of other candidates, and these have i stirred his supporters to counter moves. For this preliminary campaigning his ; consent is not necessary: All that is required is that he refrain from in- | terfering. By the time that this.almost imperceptible movement has reached a stage at which it ean not be ignored it will be too late to be repudiated. , On the Democratic side Senator Un ! derwood is at the moment the out standing figure. ‘ He is represented as taking solemn counsel with himself as to whether he shall or shall not tell his. friends to go ’atiead ^nd capture -all the ' delegates they can. A real southerner running for president wouldj be enough to make the campaign of"| I$24 historic, but at present it looks as if Mr. Underwood will have as hard a fight for the nomination as»hehadi in 1912. Some of the leading candi dates of 1920 will be in the field, and j they will be joined by a new* candidate i of undoubted “availability.” The sen-j ate seat that is about to be vacated by | Senator New will be occupied by ex Governor Ralston.

A Democrat who can recap- ; ture Indiana two years after the great est Republican landslide in the. annals of American politics is under no ne cessity of putting up a presidential lightning rod.—New' York Evening Post. ESCAPING A BAD APPOINTMENT After the failure of the senate to con firm the nomination of Mr. James G. McNary bf Texas and New Mexico as controller of the currency, President Harding' offered him a recess appoint ment to that office. But Mr. McNary had the good sense to decline It. ,^He doubtless was fully aware, even If the president was not, that he could not be confirmed by the next senate. Conse quently his tenure of the office, if he accepted, It would have been "a fleeting and precarious luxury.” It has been reported that the facts were laid be fore President Harding by members of the senate commute on banking and j currency, with request that the nom ination be withdrawn. This Mr. Hard ing refused to do, though he must have failed to take in the significance of the charges brought to his attention. In giving them to the public Senator Couzens of Michigan has done what was doubtless to him a disagreeable duty, but what is unmistakably a pub lic service. He must have been pre pared for Mr. McNary’s denials yester day afternoon and for meeting the is sue of personal veracity raised by the banker. It is urged in excuse for Mr. Mc Nary that he was “a frontier banker," and as such had to indulge in prac tices. which would be thought highly irregular in settled communities. But it appears that as president of a bank lie was not simply 0n the frontier, but well over the border of banking cus toms and laws. To have been, as he often was, the chief borrower from his own bank; to have speculated with its funds; to have allowed companies in which he was personally interested to overdraw their accounts with his bank in large amounts—these things certain ly do not make up the sort of creden tials which should be demanded in the ease of the controller of the currency, who has official oversight of the sound ness of the banking methods of more than 8,000 banks. It is charitable to believe that Presi dent Harding was imposed' upon in this case, the guilty man being Indicated again as Secretary Fall. However this may be, .the nomination of Mr. Mc Nary was indefensible, and the coun try Is lucky to have escaped his ap pointment to an office where, it is now plain, he would have been ludicrously out of place.—New York Times. Municipal Association President Quits Post ASHEVILLE, March 9—Mayor Robert! has tendered his resignation as presi dent of the North Carolina Municipal association, of which he has been the head since Its re-organization In 1919. His resignation becomes effective March 20. This action was taken by Mayor Rob erts today because of the fact that he is not a candidate to succeed himseli as mayor of Asheville and that he wishes to leave the place open to the man who will have, a mayor’s position. The executive committee has power to name a president to serve until the next yearly gathering'. A BIT OP CARVED IVORY By Margaret E. Bangs ter, In Christian Herald A bit of ivory, fashioned by hands; that carve no more, A bit of ivory, painted by years that have passed by;«» A perfect piece of beauty, with neither fault nor flaw, A bit of tinted ivory whose charm will never die! I found it in an old shop, I brought it home with me, And hung it where the lamp light shines softly on its grace; It holds a thousand secrets that eyes may almost see. Sometimes it seems to sparkle and smile into mpr fade! The colors of it—shading from brown to creamy white— Are softer than the tolors that humans ever make; i glimpse in it the silence of every misty night, I find in it the promise that only time may make.

Creomulsion is a new medical discovery with twofold action; it soothes and heals the inflamed mem branes and kills the germ. Of all known drugs, creosote is rec-' ognized by the medical fraternity as the greatest healing agency for tjbe treatment of chronic coughs and colds and other forms of throat and lung troubles. Creomulsion contains, in ad dition to creosote, other healing ele ments which soothe and heal the in flamed membranes and stop the irrita tion while the creosote goes on to the stomach, is absorbed' into the blood, attacks the seat of the trouble and de stroys the germs that lead to consump tion. Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac tory in the treatment, of chronic coughs and colds, bronchial asthma, catarrhal bronchitis and other forms of throat and lung diseases, and is-ex cellent for building up the system after colds or the flu.
