EVERYTHING SHO\Vk PROSPER-* ITY. f- V*me day racetith* the Department of Is Labor ambthe Federal Reserve Board I each issued a ’report showing the con dition of business throughout tlie coun * try. with each report based iipon facts ! as brought out in the management of the two organizations.! t The .m<«4t Jjtrfkiug fact in the. reports is tli*4r similarity, each declaring that busi ness is on the increase, with .line pros ■ pects of 1023 being a record breaking __ year. Tbe Federal Rese.rve Board, making ■ public its monthly report on finance and Commerce, toid of increases tak ing place in the production voinme-of c commodities generally expansion of en w terprises,. and stiffening prices of basic products, while tin* department of la , bor, on the basis of responses of its "employment agents in 37 states to offi % cial queries, reported decreased unem ployment N heightening demand for la- in nearly all industrial centers, and an impending lal>or shortage in many areas. : r The reserve board's account of heav | ier bank lending, increasing r building operations, maximum railroad loadings ~of freight, particularly forestry prod i| ucts, and expanding production in bus ic industries like steely aml cotton weaving, checked completely with the f? I departments hndings. Industrial employment continued to r increase during February and short | ages of both skilled and unskilled la bor were reported by the textile and f steel mills- and in the anthracite mines. The.board added, however, that there was still some unemployment west of the Mississippi River, but gen erally speaking, important wage in creases weE n ported. Office workers, r the Imard declared, have, not lieen in great demand, yet in eastern in- IHEluatrlsil centers this class of workers y is being abs6rbo<l*,more rapidly than conditions a few months ago would have indicated. SETS FINE EXAMPLE. I % Miss Alice Ibjbinson, after serving “ two years in the House, of Represwi tatires, will end her political career | -with the expiration of the present Con | cress, she having been defeated for re-election in the elctyion ou Xovcui r • her Vth. She w ill be succei'de.d by a Democrat. Miss Rohm so it has won a f national reputation during her stay f in Washington, and today is one of Jlie L Lest known ligures in American public life. H And for that reason certain of her friends have advised lier to bang ’ around Washington. It will be easy l for h£r, they point out, to get a “soft job” of some kind, and it is not neces sary for her to go back to the rather t - tiresome restaurant. Aiwl right here * the woman shows tin*, stuff she is made of. She replied to her friends that she is seeking am political favor: she was defeated ami will take* her rnedi k cine. She. further states that there is ; V i no reason why she he kept up by the government: that she done h nothing that wafrauts a pension for ' life. V It is a pity that uiore lame ducks refuse to take this attitude- Senator New. one of the strong supporters of r Mr. Harding, was defeated ovtrw heim - ingly m the. |gst election, but he is to' | fee given another job. this time- iu-the cabinet. There have been hundreds of cases similar tc his. Too affray m*n ? ' T seem to think fliat because, they were ( elected to office once, the county owes j them a living for ]ife. Miss Robinson has set au example J t that all defeated candidates would do • well to follow. _ V SHOW KEEN JUDGMENT* We have heard much duriug the past [two or three years about French peo | pie, and particularly French woman, j almost hating Americans. This spirit ■of animosity, say the reports, has sprung Up since, she war, and if we be : lieve these rumors an American is not !vf*ry popular in France. | A recent referendum conducted by a Paris woman's magizine seems to - have proved thesfi ■"'tumors as false. The Paris magazine asked the women of France what occupation they would j prefer their husbands to follow, and if they-were not French, from what nat ionality they would choose a husband. And a count the answers shows the American far in the lead. About 20,000 answers to the second question were sent to the magazine and in 14,000 of them American husbands were cliosen. No other country was closer Italy re ceiving about 2,000 votes, England 1,- 800 and the others less than 400 each. Only 18 women wanted Turks for hus bands, indicating that the men from Jbo land of the liarem are not very popular with the women of France, The popularity of the Americans seems a fine compliment to the American sol diers., who must have made a line im pression by their conducts in France, > More variety was disclosed wlieir*• | the women began choosing their ht’is- I blinds’ occupations. The manufacturer led with ! 1,000 followed by the scientist with 3.0(10. banker with 2,000 and mo tion picture, operator with 1.000. And Georges Carpeqtier does not seem to be as popuby as one would imagine, for only 141 women wanted their hus bands to he pugilists. One of the most significant facts in the whole, referendum applies to the French women's attitude toward the military or naval officers. Not a vote was cast for either military or naval officer. -This shows'that the French women have had enough.of war, and goodness knows they have hud every fhance to get enough. x INTERESTING OUTSIDERS. We wonder how many, readers of this paper ever heard of Bellows Mails. Vermont. We wonder, too, how many readers of this paper have any desire , to-jnove. to that city? We.ask these , questions for the reason that in Bel- , lows Falls there is a family which' has heard of Concord, of the Piedmont section and of North Carolina., and which believes this section is pro gressing so rapidly and so successful- I.v that it is the logical place, in which j to settle. Rev. IV. A. Jenkins, pastor of Cen- ( tral Methodist Church, has received 1 the following self-explanatory letter: “Dear Sir: I am a member of the Methodist Church in this place and my husband is also. and desiring with ’ others, to know more about the con ditions of your locality we enclose SI.OO asking you to subscribe for us to -one of the leading papers of your town ft>r that amount, sending it to our address. “We do not intend to put you to ex- J pense. only expect enough copies of ] the paper 1o cover the enclosed. Thank- < ing you in advance, l am “Respectfully, t “MRS. E. CARSON MASON ’ ! “Bellows, Falls. Vermont.” ( This letter plainly shows the nat ional reputation this section of the [ county has at present. Where people ( formerly shouted “go west, young man. < go west,” they are now slibuting with . j equal vigor, "go south, young man, go { south.” People in Vermont and prac tically every- other section of the conn- ' try are wise to settle, in Concord, or other cities in the Piedmont! section. We are just beginning to exert our in fluence; we,have just begun to feel for our rightfifl place among the great States of the Union. CONGRESS QUITS., After being in «ession almost con tinuously Since 1921, the Sixty-seventh Congress adjourned yesterday with a poor record. The record has been a disappointment noC only to the coun try generally, but even to the Repub lican parjy, which entered Congress with a huge majority in both houses and as a result of the election last November will have but a suTfill ma jority in both houses when the Sixty eighth Congress convenes. Senator Simmons declares the Con gress which closed yesfbrda.v was “the wesftest*' and mo'st inefficient in our history.*’ Its record, he says, has been cue of “weakness, vacillation, in consistency, camouflage and subter fuge** ami were it not sy tragic spectacle the end of this-Congress pre sents would be truly "laughable.*’ • “Speaking broadly,” Senator Sim mons said, “it may be asserted* that this Congress, with Us large Republi can majority and its boastful prom ises of wonderful accomplishment of progressive, remedial and constructive legislation, has not only failed in all of Its premises, pledges and predic tions, hut it has left-n record so bar j ren of accomplishment, so replete in J its shortcomings and pitiable failures, as to. entitle it to lie characterized as ! probably the weakest and most ineffi cient Congress in our history.” We are going to have a long rest from Congressional action now, and we hey eve the country will welcome the rest. There will be nothing dn«- iug now* from Congress until Decem ber unless Mr. Harding Changes his mind and calls a special session, and we think lie will not do this. His pV schemes for the most part failed at t which ended yesterday and it would be futile for him a special session. ✓ One great trouble with Congress was lack of a real leader. Senator Lodge is a fine politician, a man who loves big business and the monied in terests, but he knows nothing about the needs of the public generally find therefore could not lead the great Re publican majority in the* right direc tion. Mr. Harding is no leader at all. lie hfis to take liis orders from the "bosses” and for that reason he too, failed to grasp the opportunity and devote the Republican majorities to helpful legislation. CAMPBELL THROUGH AT LAST. \ Dr. Ike Campbell, Republican phys ician of Norwood, who contested the election*of Representative Doyghtoh. and who lost in an investigation ,of the election, was in Washington for the closing of Congress, but his case did not come up and he seetas through forever. Even though he received an it fi favorable <Wnnitt£e report Dr. Campbell evidently believed that he could get the case brought to the‘floor of* the House in the confusion of the closing of Congress and tliujs be seat ed long enough at least to draw* the salary* which went to Mr. Doughton. But his case was,not presented in any form and the election contest seems to Tie a closed ■lncident. „ THE SIGN IS ALL. We appreciate the fact that the State Highway Commission hajs a huge task on its hands in building and maintaining roads . thrjoughout the State, but at the same y time wo do not see why it insists oh placing detouring signs reading “Detour No. —, main tained by the State Highway Commis sion'' .when the detour is not maintain ed at all. If the commission lias more work than it can do,-it should place the detour signs and say nothing It bout maintaining the detours -miless this is to be done, for the signs really call attention to the condition of the roads and make travelers believe they are going to {ind something tine. If the detour just north of Kannap olis, on the Concord-Salisbury road, is being maintained,-as tbe detQur signs say. we hope we will hot have to drive over a road that is not being main tained. If would be hard to imagine a road rougher than this detour. HUNDREDS EXPEC TED AT GOOD ROADS MEETING Three of Largest Good Roads Organi zations in Nation to Meet in Green ville. S. V, Greenville, S.

London, March 5. —A new precious stone has ben discovered which has the rearkable property of changing its cit or. Helioilore, as the new stone has ben named, was found in East Africa. It is now, puzzling scientists by its strange behavior. In daylight it appears as a brilliant point of flaming yellow. When placed in the rays of a gaslight or an electric lamp it takes on the flashing green hues of. the emerald. In the dim light of dawn or dusk \t assumes the white brilliance of the diamond. ft is considered remarkable that one stone -should have all these colores at different times, though actually al most all the precious stones are vary ing forms of the same thing. Diamond, ruby, topaz and emera'd are all made of the same ingredients as the earbordndum power used fo* clean ing table knives. t Ford Woluid Develop Power at Twin Pities.

March. 5. —Home economic departments in North Caro lina high schools are “coming out of the. basements,’’ according, to Miss Margaret Edwards, state supervisor of flie work.

At Wallace, consolidated selioyl au thorities agreed to construct a model brick-veneer residence Jo be used in home economic instruction, she said. The teacher of the course will reside in the home, when it is completed, and the girl students will take turns in staying there each week-end. The new* home will lie ready for occupancy this !, In addition to the residence, Wal lace officials are planning to con struct all agricultural building for Jbpys attending the school. The' insti- Itution serves a large rural district. “The tendency to cottages for use in teaching home economics and home-making is spreading in this shite.” said Miss Edwards. “In Tex as, the ffian lias been adopted in many communities and is a decided success. We hope to have the same system in effect throughout North Carolina with-' in the next several years.* In Rooky Mount Miss Edwards ar ranged for special classes in home eco nomics to start this prpig.
