‘ 3. No other nation has her conation
als as dispersed as Germany, among 16
neighboring and adjoining states.
And the Treaty of Versailles has di
vided Europe into more so-called na
tional states than ever exesited, 37 in
stead of 25.
“Not one of these states was built on
economic efficiency, but on political urg
ency. Not one of these new states is a
homogeneous state of one nation; each
one is composed of various nationalities
and minorities. '
“Germany is the most internationally
located nation of the world. This sit
uation has created the political philoso
phy of the new Germany and of “Eu
ropeanism”, of intereuropean interde
pendence and mutual cooperation. These
are the underlying tendencies of the
American Dawes scheme (the life in
surance of Germany), the Locarno sys
tem (the mutual life insurance of the
European powers), the League of Na
tions at Geneva, (the new international
machinery), and the meeting of Tliorry
(the French German reapproachment).
So the hard way of Germany became a
European headway and may become an
international highway.”

ARREST BUD DAVIS

less and frightened, but was insistent
in his questioning about the reward. He
could get the man in five minutes, but
wanted proof that his questioners were
officers and not members of a mob seek
ing Davis to lynch him. The officers
assured him that they would assuredly
get Davis, dead or alive, and that the
more quietly he w r as surrendered the
better.
Merritt set out to bring him, but the
grapevine telegraph had been at work,
and Loyd, at whose house a half-mile
away Davis had been in hiding, was met
by Merritt, having Davis in tow, pre
tendingly tied with a piece of rope,
while his “capturer” strode along with
a 22-rifle and the end of the rope in his
hand.
The Desperado Tame *
The wild man was now gentle enough.
It was apparent that he had preferred
surrender to a possibility of being shot
down like a dog; while it was equally
evident that Merritt and Loyd had
planned to get and divide the reward,

THE CHATHAM RECORD
getting it is to secure a defense fund for
Davis.
Davis Lodged in Wake Jail
The prisoner was taken to Raleigh
-and lodged in jail. Sheriff Turner did
not know till next morning that his bad
man had been nabbed by the Chatham
officers. The arrest was good news to
him, though the Chatham bunch had
already hied away during the early
morning hours to Franklin county, seek
ing Robbins, the last man at large of
the eight implicated. Reaching Louis
burg, they awoke the Franklin sheriff
and were told that Robbins had an ap
pointment to be at his office Monday
morning, and that he would turn him
over to them, and sure enough when
they awoke after a few hours’ sleep,
the Franklin sheriff was in the room of
one of them with his man.
It seems that the Franklin sheriff had
had a former visit from Robbins but the
Record has received no explanation of
his failure to arrest the man who he
must have known was wanted. It is
stated that Robbins was preparing to go
to Lee county for Davis’s family, and
that Davis was going to attempt to
make his way to Canada.
Robbins in Durham Jail
Robbins was taken to the Durham jail,
it being thought better to have the
prisoners scattered..
Sheriff Blair and his men arrived at
Pittsboro Monday evening. This time
the daily papers had given them their
due credit.
The Chatham officers have been inde
fatigable in their chase of the men who
so ruthlessly shot down three brother
officers, and were on the ground when
every one of the eight men in prison
for participation in the crime was taken
in custody. It is a notable record and
Sheriff Blair and his doughty band have
received many plaudits for their fearless
and untiring efforts to bring to the bar
of justice what apparently was one of
the most desperate groups of criminals
operating in this section in many days.
LIMING TOBACCO LAND
BRINGS BIG RETURNS
Raleigh, N. C., Feb. 9. —Liming land
to be set in tobacco has brought an aver
age increased yield for five years of
190.41 pounds of leaf and an increased
value of $68.88 per acre.
“These results are for the five years of
1920, 1921, 1922, 1923 and 1924,” says
E. G. Moss, tobacco specialist and super
intendent of the Tobacco Branch Sta
tion near Oxford in Granville county.
“The tobacco harvested in 1925 was lost
by fire and the crop of 1926 has not
yet been graded. In order that those
interested may have the results of our
work for the coming season, we are
releasing our figures for the five years
given. These results were obtained by
comparing the yields and value from the
limed end of 36 plats with the unlimed
; end. Magnesium limestone was applied
: at the rate of one ton per acre broad
; cast about 60 days before the tobacco
: was transplanted.
“This series runs in a three-year ro
; tation with tobacco, oats and rye. The
: oats are harvested for hay, after which
: soybeans are broadcasted on the land
and the resulting crop plowed under.
The rye is cut for seed and the land left
to grow to weeds which are plowed un

The tests by Mr. Moss show that a
total of 3,471.46 pounds of tobacco with
a value of $545.41 was harvested from
each acre of the unlimed half during the
five years. From the limed part of the
field a total yield per acre of 4,423.52
pounds of leaf was harvested during the
five years with a value of $889.83. This
makes a yearly average of 694.29 pounds -
with a value of $109.08 from the un
limed portion of the field and a yearly
average of 884.70 pounds with a value
of $177.96 per acre from the limed por

ing was 190.41 pounds with a value of
$68.88 per acre.

Wake Forest Student Fatally Injured in
Triple Car Crash Near Method
Sunday; Six Injured.
A three-car motor wreck Sunday night
at 11 o’clock on the Central Highway
near Method, six miles from Raleigh,
took a toll of one life and sent six in
jured people to a Raleigh hospital.
Sidney Grassgreen, 22, a law student
at Wake Forest, was fatally injured, dy
ing on his way to the hospital. Joseph
Grassgreen, of 120 Harding street, Ral
eigh, and Dewart Grassgreen, 20, sus
tained fractured skulls. Their conditions
are critical. Mrs. Grassgreen and daugh
ter, Ruth, were less seriously injured.
Others injured are Kelso Wood and Joe
Bennett, of Apex.
The Grassgreen family was riding in
a Ford which was headed toward Ral
eigh and the car was wrecked, according
to Coroner Waring, w r hen it was side
swiped by a large Raleigh-Durham bus
and thrown violently against a Dodge
occupied by the Apex boys.
Coroner Waring began an investigation
shortly after midnight Sunday and his
first act w 7 as to order the arrest of Mar
vin Pulley, driver of the bus. Pulley
was stopped at Durham and brought
back to this city.
The elder Grassgreen is proprietor of
the Carolina Poultry and Egg Company,
of Raleigh. The family had visited
friends in Durham and were enroute
home at the time of the crash.
Miss Rice: “James, I’d hate to have to
ask you to come me for fifty minutes
after school.”

do it.”
