Republicans Are , Getting Cold Feet On Tariff Measure Bill Is Such A Monstrosity And Opposition So Strong They Hope It Won’t Pass. It Robs The Farmer For Every Dollar Protection It Gives Him, Bill Takes $2 Of His Hard-Earned Cash. P (David P. St. Clair) Washington, D. C., Sept. 22.—The Bepublicans in the senate have begun to manifest “nerves” as the so called “gigantic battle” over the tariff ap proaches. Already they are charging the Democrats with the intention of leading a filibuster against the pas sage of the bill so as to prolong its consideration far into the regular ses sion of congress. The Democrats em phatically deny that they have any de sire to obstruct the passage of the bill beyond adequate and reasonable discussion of it. Their only demand is that if the “monstrbus iniquity” must be passed the American people must be given ample opportunity from the debate on the floor to understand it fully. The truth according to keen impar tial observers here is that neither the President nor his party in congress want to pass any tariff legislation be fore the congressional election next year. It was the Republicans of the agrarian states of the West led by such senators as Borah of Idaho and Brookhart of Iowa that caused Mr. Hoover to add tariff revision as one of the two objectives of the special session of congress. The farnr plank' in the platform of the Kansas City convention pledged “parity” between agriculture and industry in tariff ben efits and the agricultural Republican West has steadfastly demanded this parity. ■ Mr. Hoover in mentioning the tar iff in calling the extra session plainly showed his fear of it. When the man ufacturing East realized that the farming West was coming to Wash ington to get its feet in the tariff trough, the mill men of Massachus etts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and New York made an onslaught on the house ways and means committee and dictated to it the Hawley bill. When that masterpiece of high and special privilege in taxation got to the coun try the reaction sent the shivers down the spine of every Republican leader in Washington. For three hot months the hardboiled high protectionist majority on the senate finance committee have labored to revise that bill so as .to hold on to the East and fool the West. The Senator Borah rinds that the senate bill does not offer a scintilla more parity to the farmers than the house bill did. Everywhere it gives the farmer a dollar it takes two dollars out his pocket and gives them to the rpanuiacturer. ’ The trill Men of the East do not W&fit fifty tariff legislation unless they Can get something like the Hawley bill. And in the language of one Western senator, the West is going to raise heir in the Republican party at the next election unless the farmers of that section are given part of ben efits in tariff legislation. Such a thing as parity between the farmers and manufacturers in tariff benefits is as unthinkable to a man like President Grundy of the Pennsylvania Manufac turing Association as the flight of an aeroplane from the earth to the sun. If Senator Borah succeeds in his sec ond attempt to win the senate over to parity for the farmer Mr. Grundy and his cohorts will strangle this hayseed tariff babe in the house and if not there, certainly in the White House. As a matter of fact the hawttofied Republicans in both houses and Mr. Hoover would be gtod deepdownin their hearts if the Democrats worid filibuster the tariff biH to death.

I HLORENZ ZIKGFKLD, monarch “ of musical comedy, h«t decreed that this season’s model chorus girl must possess a full quota of normal feminine curves. When the cur tain rises this winter on the danc ing, singing line of beauties that make up the Follies and other fa mous ZlegfeM productions, there will be no slat-like figures In their ranks. For, according to Mr. Zleg fold, skeleton figures resulting from harmful reducing diets are not wanted by the American theater goer. Other producers have discovered that It Is the thin, half-starved girl who falls to stand up under the rigors of a hard winter of matinees and evening performances and for that reason the official thumb has been turned down on her. Mr. Zlegfeld further has a word of advice for the thousands of young women who would trip the boards on Broadway. Pep, charm, and beauty, he says, are not brought about by the elimination of sugar, sweets and other foods that fill nature’s storehouse of energy.

This probably was due to the season a bad smut year, but we are likely to have a bad smut year any year, unless we: treat our seed. I do not think that J any farmer can afford to take the j chance, especially as the treatment! costs very little. The following treat-. ment from the Department of Plant Pathology at State College covers the subject. The loose and covered smuts of oats constitute the most destructive dis eases affecting oats in North Caro lina. Both smuts occur with a great deal of prevailance in most fields where untreated seed are sown. The diseases can be prevented entirely by treating the seed with a solution of formaldehyde prepared in accordance with"the directions given below. Oats to be treated should be spread on * clean floor or a canvas where they may be shoveled backward and forth. The seed ape treated pre ferably a few hours before the grain is Sown. In case it is necessary to treat the grain several days before planting, the grain should be spread out for a day and aired following the treatment described in the following, paragraphs. Floranz Zlagfald who haa turned thumba down on the undamourw lahed typo of chorua girl. Above—a lino of typloal Zlogfold Boautloa. . grace and dignity are my ideals,” Mr. Zlegfeld said. “From the days when Dolores reigned to the pres ent, exemplified by Gladys Glad, the beauties ot our shows have been carefully selected with an eye to beauty of form as well as face. The extreme, slender form possesses no beauty, nor does it find favor In my eyes or the eyes of a discriminating public. Reducing Fads Taboo "I have never approved of the wild fads for reducing that often* seize the American miss and ma tron. The girl or woman who elim inates the needed elements of food from her diet, who starves herself by eating only those foods war ranted to be non-fattening and who turns aside from good old-fashioned solution prepared should be decreased in proportion. As the grain is being shoveled from one pile to another, the grain is spray- j ed by making one stroke with the sprayer to each shovel full of grain. In case a scoop shovel is used, about four strokes is required to each shovel full. Care should be taken to produce a fine mist with the sprayer in order that the fumes will thoroughly pene trate the grain. After the cats are sprayed, shovel them into a pile and cover with blank ets, canvas or sacks that have been thoroughly sprayed with the treating solution. The pile should be left cov ered from four to six hours before the grain is spread out to dry. Following the treatment either sow the oats at once or if they are to be kept for more than 24 hours spread them out for a day where they will be aired, after which the oats may be stored until planting time. In case the oats are not thoroughly dried at the time of planting, allowance should he made for the swelling which has occurred by increasing the rate of seeding per acre. The treatment given above is for oats only, and Is given at this time as many farmers will be seeding oats this month and I feel that each one should follow this tfr some other meth od. Before wheat seeding time I will give one or two recognised treat ments for wheat and I hope that all will be planning to treat their wheat as well as the oats.

The undernourished, under weight girl cannot hope to possess these attributes which make for success. "Sunshine, fresh air exercise and an abundance of body building and energizing foods are the open se crets of beauty and no one can hope to remain beautiful who does not take deep draughts of all of these.’* Mr. Ziegfeld has. selected Gladys Glad as the ideal type of chorus girl whose curves would make any tired business man forget the but ter and egg business for a few hours. Bodies Of Soldiers From Randolph Are « . Interred In France Captain Sen F. Dixon And Oth ers Of His Gallant Company Lie Under French Soil. The War Department, through Sen ator F. M.

Many of the Tar Heel sold iers who were killed in France were brought home, of course, but there are several hundred yet buried in French soil. The War Department is making arrangements for Gold Star pilgrimages to the American cemeter ies overseas. The first of these will be in 1930, and widows and mothers of those who made the supreme sacri fice for their country are eligible to make this pilgrimage to the graves of their loved ones.

(Winston-Salem Journal) "Young: men of the present day, with a telephone upstairs and down, and an automobile in the garage out side their door, haven’t any sort of an idea of the inconvenience under which we elderly men did our courting,” de clared a Winston-Salem citizen yes terday. This man had been the leader of his “set” in his day. He was popular with aU the girls and, judging from his stories of ancient wooing, nearly all the girls were popular with him. The grey hair about his temple had once been the Jove-like locks that hurled thunderbolts of feeling at love ly maidens.* He. talked freely of the art of love making as it was done some forty or fifty years ago. Those were the times when, if a Romeo wanted to “romeo” he had to “hoof it” around to the home of his beloved or ride around to where she lived and call on ’her in person to see whether he could have a “date.” “We didn’t make pop dates then,” declared this erstwhile lover. “We us ually had our regular girl and we re marked as we left in the evening, ‘I ’spect I’ll be back next Sunday.’ If a young man didn’t go back at all well, that was a different matter.” “Yes, it was a little embarrassing in them days,” he continued. "You see, nowadays, a young buck can pick up a telephone and call up and if the Princess Charming answers, he just works the conversation up to suit him self; he doesn’t have to worry about the way his collar fits or whether his hair is combed right, or any of those things, as the telephone doesn’t reveal these non-essentials. Besides, in this late day there aren’t any bashful or timid young sprouts anyway. Back when I was a youngster, when courtin’ was an art, when a fellow had to go in at the front door of his sweetheart-to be’s house and ask for a ‘date,’ or ap proach her at a public gathering and offer to ‘see her home,’ it took sand. Besides, in those days, just one arch look from Princess Charming was enough to effectually squelch the most enamored young buck.” in the pnstine days described Dy this informant a young man got “kicked” if he was refused a date at the first asking. If a girl turned a boy down after she had “gone” with him for a while, she “slighted” him. The persistent reporter, eager for more of the quaint lovers lores of days gone by, at this juncture, turned his notepaper inside out and started to make an additional1 query and the reminiscing one spied his pencil. “What are you writing down,” he queried, in the tones of a prosecuting attorney cross-examining the chief de fense witness. Then, divining the in tention^ of the columnist, he closed up like a clam with contracting rheuma tism. "If you publish anything I said and use my name I’ll skin you and my wife’ll be waitin’ to salt your hide,” he stated. And that closed the interview. Large Enrollment Is Predicted For State Elementary Schools Nearly 900,000 Children Are Expected To Enter Element ary Schools This Fall* Raleigh, Sept. 2.—Approximately 875,000 children will enroll in the public elementary and high schools of the State during 1929-30, according to an estimate made in the office of the State Superintendent of Public In struction based on the increase of to tal school enrollments for preceding years. Figures lor preceding scnooi years indicate that there will be approxi mately 605,000 white children and 270.000 Negro children, who will eith er begin or continue their education at the State’s public schools. It is esti mated that more than 100,000 of these children will make their appearance at the schoolhouse door to get their first insight into the meaning of pub lic education. It is further estimated that of the total public school enrollment of 876, 000 during 1929-30 approximately 120.000 will be in the high school grades, 105,000 white children and ap proximately 15,000 Negro children. Last year, 1923-29, there were 96,739 white boys and girls and 13,236 Negro children, a total of 109,975, enrolled in the public high schools. The esti mate for 1929-30, therefore, is based on the supposition that there will be an increase of about 11,000 in high school. Since 12,145 of the 109,975 high school students graduated this past year, then there will be nearly 25.000 boys and girls who will enter high school for the first time. According to the educational sta tistics, the enrollment in the element ary grades will be approximately 500, 000, or identical with the past few years, since the enrollment in high school will practically absorb the in crease in total school enrollment.
