Bailey speaks some plain thoughts in regard to the life the agricultral people of North Carolina are living and incidentally suggests some thoughtful measures by which such life may be improved. Mr. Bailey declares that the 1,600,000 people of North Carolina who live on the farm are not only noV im proving their condition, but are actually Retting in worse shape all the time. He recites the fact that just at the moment wlvn ngrcultural products were at their peak and farmers thought themselves in excellent shape, the mort gage indebtedness which was secured "by land had increased 221 per cent for the 10 years endihg January 1920, the number of cropper-tenants had increased by 20,000 and the extent of farming lands had greatly decreased. Mr. Bailey draws the sensible con clusion that there is but one real con tributing cause to this condition, the laying of too much stress upon money crops and paying so little attention to the food srops. "So bus are we," le says, "producing money crops that we the budget, to eliminate institutions that demand public money, do away with so many schools, so many propositions affecting the health of the pepl. soj many agencies administering to their wellbeing, so many officials paid to give their time and their expert efforts to the cause of making the life of the peo ple constructive and satisfactory. Whenever a community makes up its mind that it wants to do these things, and turn the clock of progress back ward, stop civilization in its track3 and hold the standards of life just where they are now without mcvln stliem one whit further on. then it will be possi ble to have a lower rate of taxation and to pay smaller tributes to the stats. But where is the community that would dare do these things? WHOSE BUSINESS IS IT? A farmer got into a controversy w'.r.h the vender of ice cream beo.iusu the price nharsed was so high ar.d t;.e con troversy finally waxed so warm thai the proprietor of the store emphatically told th prospective purchaser that he neern't buy the cream unless he wanted to, th?.t "it is none of your l:;sine3s neglect to raise food, and as a conse- jjiOW Jnuci, we charge for our ice cream." TIMES-DEMOCRAT. (Semi-Weekly) One year 1.50 Six months 75 Entered as second-class matter at the postofflre at Charlotte, N. C, un der the Act of March 3, 1897." SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1921. THE SNEERING HERALD ON COT TON PRICES If cotton gos to CO conts it will be better news A'Mllir Hn'shnnt. ivrnto ... d:y this week to his syndicate of news papers and with its usual invective and contemptibleness The New York Herald srif.M.ngly adds tlj.it "in the consum ers of the coin". ', if1 ndiyj cos: of 0 Cints a mill would be $r.0'J 9H-,-000. Arguing further tint the world :o- imes abo.it Vo, 000, 009 bales or 30, 000,000,000 pounds, that paper ligures that the added 'li cents a iiound would he two billions of dollars. And then with another grsti're of hale, it dis misses the sub ject with the phrase. "But what is a coup! of billions of dollars to consumers already bled white"! The Herald is supposed to have in herited the eriiditune. of The Sun when it absorbed that i.ewspaper and tT have had handed down to it all the resourcefulness of biurrness for which The Sun was formeiiy noted,, but its knowledge 'of cotton prices and cotton economics seems to be markedly restr'ct ed. Somebody ought to tell The Herald for its future information that, every time rcw cotton gos up a cent pound, a yard of finished cotton cloth does not also go up a cent a yard. It might be of concern to the New York paper to find out also that the South makes its living out of cotton and that if it can not sell its staple at a jorfit, it cm not buy any of the world's goods. One of the main reasons for universal depression in the United States right now arises from the fact that disastrously low-priced cotton has ruined the purchasing power of the Southern people, and this decreased power to go into the markets and absorb the goods and commodities of the mar kets is being felt in New York City to day direct from the cotton-selling South. We wonder if it is the idea of The Herald that the Southern cotton plant er ought to be so magnanimous as to go down into his pockets and at his own expense make cotton for the world to consume just for the pleasure of the thing and Just to get some healthy Oxercisc? it is the opinion of The Herald that the grain-raisers of the West are in the habit of making the bread of the nation without a cent of profit, lust because they are altruis tic citizens and want to be so unself ish and generous that they will produce wheat at their own expense in order to see to it that the balance of manity does not lack for bread? I hat would be the line of its reason ing if it should insist that the South- : em farmer ought to be maligned be- , cause, forsooth, he is about to get a lit tle more than 10 cents for his cotton. ; That Js Just about half what it has t cost to produce It and in spite of its ; vicious hatred for the South and for ; all things southernly, The Herald ought : to 'have sense enough to know that it ;. ls nt only unjust, unfair and inoquita- ble to have one class of the American ; people producing such a useful com 5 modity as cotton gratuitously, but that ! it is both uneconomic and immoral to expect it to. Sometimes a newspaper as brilliantly manned as The Herald is admitted to be -. allows its blind rage and malignant ' spitefulness actually to upset its throne " of reason. Nothing less appears to have happened when it undertook to f argue against the wisdom and right- eousness of high-priced cotton. quence, we nave a snoriage every year of meat, of hay. of milk, of peas, of bread arid an unexchangeable surplus of cotton, tobacco and peanuts. For our food, excepting milk, we send off every year enough to make our farmers well off and as for milk and butter, the want of these is probably the mo.se serious handicap of our civilization". Mr.Bailey states no new fact in the" recitation of these, conditions neither is he laying down an economic proposi tion that is strange cr radical- Almost every farmer one mischt mett would agree that this diagnosis of the s'.1 nation is correct and that this reason assign ed by Mr. Bailey for the prevalence of ti-nantcv in this S'at is irrefutable. There is really no way to tell how much money the farmers even of Mecklenburg county -?end on every year for the slufl which they ought to produce themselves. for feed for their livestock and cattle and for food tor themselves. A lew years "ago, the fact was ascertained that Mecklenburg was buying four million dollars worth of foreign food and feedc and every cent of this money might have been kept right hero at home. o;?hto have been kept here, of course. Now the connection between the un fortunate tenantcy nation on North Carolina farms and this .sort of farrmrs which U being done in the Stat3 is net the direct connection of cans-! and effect. ""Ve are not tenant farmers in Noith Carolina' because we raise these money crops so much as we raise these money crops because we are so largely cropper-tenants. It is the system of farming which Mr. Bailey is so right eously attacking, the system of having ?o many renters who are oibliged to But the farmer insisted it was some of his business. "I produce milk on my farm for the city trade and I have been unable to mH it at any profit because there war said to be a surplus of milk on the mirket. The reason I couldn't sell it for a profit was bcaus you sell your ic e cream so high that per pie have quit Luying it in such quantities as form.?iv. If you were selling it at a price that ihe people could afford to pay for it, your volume would be so greatly increased that I could sell my milk at a profit and every other farmer could dispose cf his on the same margin- There is no overproduction of milk in the county: there is an under-c r:sumption which is being helped along by the charging of such prices as to restrict the sales of this by-product Botn of us could handle our commodities at a profit if we would recognize the fact that it is my business wht.t you charge fcr your ice cream and that it is yur brsiness what I get for rny milk." And there is lots more to that conver siiiion than the recital of a mere c n-troversy. President Harding's letter vn the achievements of nis Administration was both oratTical and lengthy. We have c?ien heard it said that when a fellow rea'jy has nothii x say, he generally e'oes a lot of ranting and takes a lot of time at it. USELESS QUARREL There was, perhaps, no especial rea son that General Pershing should have entered into a controversy with Mr. Gompers in regard to the somewhat. nono-cil itntcmont -ViJrl-i TTr CininnprR raise hardly anything hvt money crops . , , ,. . " , has so often, either directly or indi- recetiy made to the general effect that because they are tenants ard are work ing the lands belonging tosomebody ilse. Landowners generally insist that their tenants raise these things: they are not concerned about the vital econ omic fact which is right before their feces, namely, that the more tenant farmers there are n the State, the longer will the reign of money-crop production be paramount and the long er, consequently, will North Carolina agriculture grovel a.loit; in despair. This is a serious study. It is a situa tion that calls for statesmanly leader ship, for profound thouaht and for the exercise of versatil-s knowledge- North Carolina can become one of richest agri cultural States in the world, but only when it shall devise a system by which more of its own people may i,wn the lands they work and produce more of the food and feci ctops which are now draining the State of its wealth. hu- COMMUNISM AMONG AUTO OWNERS It develops that only 120.000 automo bile license plates have h?en taken out by the people of North Carolina and plates for 10.000 trucks. The records of last year indicate to the officials in thr Secretary of Stnte's offer, that there must be at least 150,000 automobiles in use in the State and 20,000 trucks which would further bear evidence that there are at least 40.000 people in North Carolina who have not yet fork ed up their license plate money and turned it over to the authorities to hep-hard-surface North Carolina's highways. the office managers In Mr. Grimes' department declare they hsve knowledge o: the practise of the Ru--s!n art of communism in some communities m the State in the matter of utilizing li- ceiiHe piates. t or instance in a. sm.ill community where they may oe as few as a dozen neighbors owing ears, it Is indicated that only three plates are serving the entire neighborhood. An ether instance is cited of one wealthy citizen of the State who owns two large automobiles and a Ford having bought a plate only for his small car and when he rides in the other two, he Ifck-s the plate off of his Ford and attaches it to his limousines. In this way, it :s claim ed, hosts of people have beaten the State out of some of the money it has been looking for. "organized labor won the war". It is a discussion to wnicn xne ngm-niinK- lng American will not delight in listen ing. The nub'ic needs no counsel as to this point. The people quite well under stand t;.'at labor did nobly during the war, worked heroically, was intensely patriotic and that the victo y which was so gloriously won has laid the world under tribute to It, hut no unpre judiced man would undertake to lay down the bold declaration that it was labor that won the wa- to the exclusion of other factors and forces and agencies. Mr- Gompers' mistake lies entirely in the statement of only a half-truth. He uses exaggerated terms and the public has ln.l lust such a regard for hia word:? along this line. It , therefore, of use .to eneaee him in contro versy on a, subject upon which the minds of the people are irrevocably mr;de up. Nothing that Mr. Gompers could assert as a feet and nothing that General Pershing might state in refutation would move the opinion that has already be come definitely and permanently mould ed as to this point GREEKS GIVEN WARMWELCOME Town of EskiShehir Gladly Welcomes the Invading Greek Army. Eski-Shehir, Asia Minor, 'sept. 10 (By The Associated Tress). Picturesque incidents characterized the fall of Eski Shehir, Kemal's great defensive bulwark to the Greek army. The Associated Press correspondent enterea the city shortly after .the first units of General George Polymenakos victorious Th:rd Army Co.-ps had march ed in. He found 5,000 liberated Armen ians and Greeks, hystericnl vith tion and enthusiam; standing on the outskirts 6t the city, shrieking a ringing welcome to the invading troop. Pale faced men and youths who had been in hiding from the Turks for months, emerged furtively from their c-.-Hs like spectres and ran to extend a hand of The last remnant of the fast -moving Kemahsts had fled the city jjst an hour before. Then a great animated spectacle began to enfold itself- Led by General Polymepakos and his staff, a great human caravan, stretch ing for miles and-fhiles, began to wind into the city. A regimental band struck up the Greek National Anthem.. On every throat were shouts of "Long Live Greece!" "Long Live the Army:"' The soldiers had been continuously on the march for nearly a month, hav ing . started from Brussa late in June. They had eclipsed Sherman's great march from Atlanta to the sea and were prepared if necessary to go on Angora. The unending columns of men, horses, Xaules, camels, automobiles, motor trucks ox-carts, water-buffalo, that n'.ude up the army, formed a kaleidoscopic pic ture. It seemed as if a mammoth Noah's ark had suddenly emptied it self. Every animal and bird known at the time of the Flood appeared to be represented in the heterogenous caval cade that filed through the portals of the ancient Turkish city. "It looks Jike a page from the Bible," remarked tne American juiutary Attacne to tne correspondent. There were herds of sheep, flocks of geese, whole regiments of cows, clus ters of chickens and every variety of mascot that the soldiers had picked up on the way. Barking, cavorting dogs and even a few stray cats joined the precession and added U. general ani mation of the scene. Eski-Snehir had not had such a day in all its long his tory. The all-day march of the weary sol diers was rewarded with a reception that cheered their hearts and stirred their emotions. In the ardor of their welcome, the old women of the town embraced the troops and little children showered flowers upon then- On every tongue were exclamations of joy and exurberance. It was a memorable day in Greek history. Ten thousand Chris tians were liberated from their bondage at the hands of the Turk, and they wanted the Greek soldiers to know their joy and gratitude. The face of the veteran General Poly menakos, as he stood upon a porch looKuig down upon his beloved troops, was eloquent with contentment and admiration. Ills ej-es filled with tears as he turned to the correspondent and said: J'They are a magnificent set of men. They have oeen on the march un interruptedly for weeks and their spirit has never l lagged. That is truly the spirit of Greece. It can never die." By midnight th last Greek legion aries ha I entered the city. The Ar menioan and Greek residents who Kime to greet them returned quietly to their home and gave thanks for this their day of liberation. The Turkish denizens of the tewn had long since retired to their dwellings, depressed, rlispappointod and sullen. Mski Siif.hir, th-i Verdun of their defenses, had fallen. The sounds of "Reveille" crime from a distant Greek ea up. ind Eski-Shehir fell asleep, conscious that it had enter ed upon a now era. .The following day at dawn the Greek flan flew from the citadel of the city. The old town had long been covete.1 by the Greeks. Their conquest was now fully realized- SveawiPAiWf")i i Prospects seem to be quite dark fcr sportsmen out in Myers Park, for der Craver and Bill Black, in effoiio to acquire. golf knack, are tearing : up , the new club grounds with count e&s c.n.ina-a onri neoipKK nounds.

REDUCING TAXES There is no use to kick about the higher tax levies which the county offi cials have already fixed for property outside of the city and which the city commissioners will soon determine upon for property Inside the city . A certain, definite amount of money is needed ev ery year for maintaining the- govern ment and so long as such a sum is demanded the people will have to pay taxes to produce it. ' The only way that taxes can be re duced is to reduce the running ex penses of government. 'I hoy can't be reduced by merely striking off 25 per cent from the original assessment fig ures. Any valuation reduction entails a tax rate increase, so that it is as broadP as It is long when we figure it in that direction. The way to get tixea down, and the only way, is to get the I expenses of citizenship reduced, to cut SHIPPING EMPLOYE UNDER BRIBE CHARGE Washington, Sept- 10. Charged with soliciting a bribe William Jacobus, an auditor of the United States Ship ping Board Emergency Fleet Corpora tion was arrested yesterday by federal authorities. Orders for the arrest Were Kiven by Colonel Guy D. Goff, the as sistant to the attorney general, who is in charge of the department of Justice's war graft investigation. Jacobu3, according to colonel Lort, had demanded a bribe of $1,000 from George W. Gibbs, of the Gibbs Engine Company of Jacksonville, Fla., for which he would agree to submit a re port favoring the company In the liqui dation of the St. Johns' river shipyard, which was operated for the govern ment by the company. Colonel Goff said the case was fully investigated both here and at Jackson ville before the arrest was ordered. HORSESHOE POET AT QUOIT CONVENTION Hamline, Minn., Sept. 10. Chicago's horseshoe-poet, M. E. Buckley, is one of the most interested attendants at the tournament of the National Horse Shoe rTi'ii- rs At sof ;ation, neia here durn.g he Minnesota State Fair- For many years before the automo bile truck came in. Buckley shod the horses of the Chicago newspapers. which had to be well cared for to rush the papers to train and lake steamers. The big horseshoer has a strong sense of rhythm which in those days, before he laid aside the hammer for the pen, manifested itself at the anvil. While making the shoes, he used to play popu lar .tunes with hammer and sledge. Of ten while passing Buckley's shop Chi cagoans heard the Star Spangled Ban ner resounding from his anvil. With this sense of harmony a deep sentiment united in the horseshoer, which has le him in recent years to devote himself largely to poetry. His verse pays freguent tribute to the horde and to the. honorable trade of horseshoeing. It was his interest in the good old game of horseshoes that brought him here. NEW CANADIAN PARTY Winnipeg, Man., Sept. 10. Organiza tion of the newly formed Canadian La bor Party is under way. Its platform recently adopted here includes: v State hviiv ince agiiiot. unemploy ment chargeable to industry, public own ership of public utilities, proportional representation, old age pensions, nation alization of the banking system, capi tal levy for reduction of the war debt, removal of taxation on the necessities of life and taxation of land values.

Tru'j to the old English c.us torn, at 5 o'clock sharp, a sumptuous ly uniformed lackey bearing n large silver platter containing diminutive cups and tea ps. could be seen walk ing across the gardens of ihe Quai d'Orsay toward the Sail- de l'Horloge. Toweling above the small cups in the platter, a tail glass filled with a yellowish liquid with the rn.cked ice Jingling merrily against ,the crystal, caused no end of speculation ng the spectators.

Papeete, Tahiti, Sept. 10. Owing to the accumulation of pearl shell in Ta hiti for which there is no quotable market, the colonial government has decided to open none of the pearl lagoons for diving operations this year. ' It Is estimated that between tour and five million francs of pearl shell taken from the Paumotus in 1920 tin remain in fixat hands at Tahit Tokyo, Sept. 10. The test of the copyright of moving pictures in Japan is being followed with keen interest here in proceedings brought by the Metro Film Company of America against the Nippon Katsudo Shash-n Kalsha. There are no arrangements between Japan and other countries by which copyright of the movies may be pro tected, and complaints from foreis,:! film manufacturers have been many. It is alleged that the Nippon Kat sudo Shashin has been giving an ex hibition of a reproduction of a Metio film under a Japanese name without obtaining the permission of the film concern. If the plaintiff wins, Jap anese -nnema people will ho longer be able to show foreign films without first obtaining permission of the manufacturer. BRITISH SYNDICATE ON THE DANUBE RIVER Sofia. Sept. 10. The Bulgarian gov ernment has accepted, in principle, the proposal of the British river syndi cate on the Danube to form an Anglo Bulgarian company to run boa'ts on that river. This proposal conforms to the general policy followed by England in respect to the Danube, tending to give to England a preponderant posi tion in the river traffic of this inter national waterway.
