Warning of dan ger of poisoning from tons of meat spoiled by. the unusually mild weather was issued today by the city bureau of food inspectors. A great quantity of meats was distributed in Chicago last week for consumption on Thanks giving. The temperature rose and re mained in the sixties for several days. No preparation had been made to keep the extra stock of meat in the coolers and a considerable per cent of it spoiled. Friday and Saturday the bureau con demned 6,000 pounds of rabbits and hundreds of fowls but the situation is beyond the control of the inspectors. Dr. B. E. Sherman, chief of the bureau, asserted before the animal heat had died out and shipped them in non refrigerator cars. "Products in the state of decomposi tion can be detected by their odor," Dr. Sherman said. i'Fowls and game only slightly cpoiled are harder to de tect but just as likely to cause severe intestinal clisorders."

Miss Wilson, it was un derstood, had made an appointment to receive the committeee at the White House this evening. All of the 500 girls played some part in the making of the fine petticoat which is embroidered with a garland of roses and an American eagle and flag bearing the initials J. S. S.

No invi tations have been issued to senators or representatives as such, though a few have been invited and outside of the cabinet, the diplomatic corps and some high officials of the army and navv, invitations to official Washing ton have been very scree.

Washington, Nov. 24 uson's belief that the eovernment. of Provision-el President Huerta is slowly crumbling was reiterated today at the White House. Discussing the situation generally, the president point ed out that the local press in Mexico City could print, uncontradicted, base less statements as to the future inten tions of the United States. As evidence of the ability of the Huerta government to spread any im pression it pleases through the Mexi can press the president referred inci dantally to optimistic predictions dur ing the last, few days in Mexican news papers that recognition of the Huerta government by the United States was forthcoming.

The More Pay Rolls Movement Always intensely interested in the welfare of Charlotte, The News believes that the need of more industries of a diversified nature is the prime ne cessity of Charlotte today.

On Page ten to-day will be found a number of articles dealing with this paramour t need They are constructive in their nature and t will pay every one to read and ponder them care fully. i The list of names to which letters were sent was prepared hurriedly Many valuable names were unintentionally left off the list. This is, therefore, an invitation to every pa triotic Charlotte citizen to aid in this "More Pay rolls" movement by joining in the public discussion so auspiciously started yesterday. fjEsiotnios UP II ON HIS ISM By Associated Pies?.
