THREE DEVELOPMENTS
HIGHLY FAVORABLE
;w> Sew Co-op Member)- S. C. Belt He
ported From Baleigh.
(8. D. Frissell)
Three outstanding developments In
the affairs ot the Tobacco Growers'
Association during the past week in
dicate that the light on the organized
growers is weakening most where the
attack has been heaviest.
The first is the popular reaction to
the resignation of Dr. James Y. Joyn
er, former superintendent of public
Instruction in North' Carolina, as
at. employee ot the association. Dr.
Joyner, in severing his official connec
tion with the association, tendered
bis services in the interest of the as
sociation without pay.
''Let me congiatulate you with all
my heart upon theJ inestimable ser
vice you have rendered the emancipa
tion of the farmer," a well known
Eastern North Carolina minister wrote
Dr. Joyner. Many other letters have
been received lauding the position of
Dr. Joyner, who is as zealous in be
half of the movement which means
prosperity on the farms as he was for
almost 20 years in behalf ot extend
ing the public school system to every
child in North Carolina.
Opponents ot cooperative market
ing suffered another set-back when,
in a speech at Zebuion, one of the
opposition propagandists was asked
point-blank by a member grower if
he had not been, employed to make
"anti-co-op" speeches by the organiz
ed auction warehousemen. The speak
er denied any collusion but. admitted
that he did not take the stump against
the association until after a long
interview with an official of the
organized warehousemen's association
So much happened by way of turn
ing back the under-cover fight which
opponents of cooperative marketing
have been making.
On the other side of the fence was
the announcement from headquarters
this week that the new sign up cam
paign has brought into the fold of
organized growers over seven hund
red new members.
Most of these new memberships are
la South Carolina territory, although
quite a few have come from Columbus,
Bladen and Robeson counties. The
result as viewed by associaton of
ficials, is a most effective answer to
the hostile attacks which are being
made by agents of the auction system.
Figures which have been made
public in a series ct newspaper ad
vertisements from Raleigh head
quarters, according to directors in
the field have served to present the
cooperative marketing question to
business men in a new light and the
apathy which has marked the progress
of the movement in some sections of
North Carolina, these directors say,
v-ill be converted into active champion
ship of the association.
The 200,000,003 slogan for 1925. ac-'
cording to the good news which is
now reaching headquarters daily, is
not an over-estimate.
JOURNEGAN NOT GlILTY
Several Nol Proses And CoutlnnaIIces
Taken In Recorder's Court Monday.
H. J. Journegan, held on a charge
ot distilling, was found not guilty by
a Jury tn Recorder's Court Monday af

OPEN AIR SEBYICES LARGELY
ATTENDED
Practically four hundred p^Sons
were in attendance upon the open air
Service oa the College campus on last
Sunday night. This is a un on service
of all the denominations in town and
the sen ices are becoming more and
more popular as the time passes on.
The sermon last Sunday night, which
was delivered by Rev. John Archie
Mclver, pastor of the Baptist church,
was a strong one, delivered In such a
clear and forceful manner that all
present could easily see the ship as it
sailed into their life.
The Band Concert was grand, the
boys seeming to outdo themselves.
The Sacred selections were more than j
well rendered and still more enjoyed.j
The orchestra also made some fli^e
music which added much to- the con
pleteness of the occasion and the
j pleasure of all present,
j The sermon Sunday night will be
| delivered by Rev. J. D. Miller, rector
; of St. Paul's Episcopal church, and a
most interesting and forceful sermon
is anticipated.
The Baptist congregation, which is
now in the midst of a most interesting
revival, will dispense with this ser
vice in the|r revival in order to join
in the Union service at the College.
"SO THIS IS MARRIAGE*
The Manager of the Winner Theatre
requests that every married person
and every person that is ever going
to be married to see this picture, "So
This Is Marriage," Hobart Henley's
latest masterpiece for Metro-Goldwyn.
This picture will be shown here
Tuesday and Wednesday, July 28th
and 29th. It is a stirring portrayal
of an ultra-modern wife who has been
bitten by the Jazz Bug, a husband who
hepes for the best, and a bachelor
friend. The ordinary action alone
would be sufficient to make this an
outstanding effort?a film that no one
should miss.
Mr. Henley, however, has inserted
in natural colors the Biblical story of
David and Bath-Sheba. Hundreds of
extra are used in this historical ro
mance?the vivid colors being preser
ved on the screen by the Technicolor
process. No one can afford not to see
this sequence. ?
Eleanor Boardman, Lew Cody and
Conrad Nagel head a notable cast. The

3ALL FOR MONEY
FOR STORM AREA
Red Cross To Issue Call Today
On Arrival of Disaster Ex
pert From Washington.
Following a detailed survey ot the
tail storm area in Franklin and Wake
*
.or n ties yesterday, Miss Allie McNeil,
field direclor of the National Red
"ross, accompanied by Cole Savage,
farm demonstration agent of Frank
lin county and John Anderson, agent
tor Wake county estimated the aver
ige loss to. the tobacco crop at 65 per
cent, to the cotton crop from 40 to 50
per cent, and to the corn crop from
30 to 40 per cent.
Estimates of the amount necessary
to tide these families over ranged from
$5,000 to $10,000. No official estimate
will be made until R. T. ffouse, disas
ter expert from the National Red
Cross at Washington, arrives this
morning and makes a survey of the
held. in the meantime needy fami
lies are being cared for by the Red
Cross.
An official call will be made upon
Franklin and Wake counties, Miss Mc
Neil stated yesterday. Edward C. Per
ry, Superintendent of Public Welfare
in Franklin county, will assist the
two local Red Cross units in Frank
llnton and Louisburg in handling the
subscriptions from that county. The
News and Observer started a j.inscrip
tion fund immediately after the storm,
Lut this la not conAned to counties.
Subscriptions will also be received at
the Wake County Chapter.
Some families are In much worse
conditions than others. Miss McNeill
said. Damage to the tobacco crops In
some cases was as high as 95 per cent,
and In some cases 65 per cent of the
corn crop was lost, and the cotton in
jured much worse in some sections.
Between 175 and 200 families are In,
volved, about 50 per cent of which are
tenant farmers. --
Mr. Perry thought the damage in
Cedar Rock section Worse than in
Pearce and Pilot sections. The storm
area was about 24 miles and was very
thickly populated with a large per
cent of the land under cultivation.
Tobacco Is considered the money
crop of farmers in this section, and it
was almost re^jjy to gather when the
storm occurred. Many of the farmers
have not paid for the fertilixer which |
they used In the spring.
