? Cotton was worth 10 cents a
pounds In Louisburg yesterday,
ttt
? Quite a bit of work has been
done on the New Armory building,
tit
? The new stores next to Louis
burg Theatre are nearing comple
tion.
? l? tit
? Louisburg was a pretty dead
place Tuesday ? everybody and
then some were taking holiday.
' i S t
? Who says the Court Square
doesn't look better without tibe
heavy trees to hide the beauty
and ruin tbe lawn. ,
t t t '
?His many frlen4e were de
? lighted to see Mr. H. J. Hayes,
who has been quite ill, on our
streets again the past week.
t ttt
? H. T. Bartholomew is having
1 material placed on the old stable
lot near tbe jail preparatory to
'erecting a modern garage and ser
vice station.
ttt
? The town basdone well to
wards paving its streets this year.
Ili could add a block or two each
year and soon reduce the csot of
maintenance a great deal.
t tl
? The new store room next to
Louisburg^ Theatre is almost ready
to accommoodatie the Theatre
while a new and modern Theatre
building is constructed on the
present site.
ttt
? It would be much better for
the State Highway to go up Cedar
Street than to be located near Fox
Swamp, passing way rqund east of
the town. It would at least- pro
vide another bridge, even though
it would be out of town.

SOUTHWARD BOUND j
Washington, June 30. ? Repre
sentative Ditter, (R.-Pa. ), insert
ed in a statement today that New
Deal economic policies were draw
ing industries out of Pennsylvania
' into the Sout'h.
; Commenting on a commerce de
partment publication showing na
tional income by states since 1930,
: Ditter said "these official flgurea
show that Pennsylvania's propor
tion of the national income haa
been shrinking during recent) yeara
while the low wage states of the
Solid South have enjoyed a steadi
ly increasing share of the total
income of the nation."
Ditter said the official flgurea
showed that Pennsylvania's com
bined annual pay rolls Bhrunlc
from $4,420,000,000 in 1930 to
*3,885,000,000 in 1937.
Total wages lor South Caro
lina in 1930 were $271,000,000
and in 1937, $292,000,000.
Florida's wage totals Increased
from $398,000,000 to $420,000,
000 and North Carolina's from
$535,000,000 to $554,000,000 Dit
ter said.
Ditter's figures showed a reduc
tion on Georgia's total wages from
$528,000,100 to $522,000,000,
while Tennessee's $510,000,000
total showed no change.
