Coal Men of Kentucky Most
Enthusiastic for Lease, De
claring: Lease JVould Give

AA'asliiugton. Xelit. 23. —Shippers along
the Louisville & Nashville Railroad to
day urged the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to grant the application of that
road and the Atlantic Coast Line for ac
quisition of the Carolina Clinchficld &
Ohio system. Kentucky coal producers
were especially emphatic in their advo
cacy of the plan which is being opposed
by other southern railroads and some
southeastern business interests.
"AAV were greatly elared atythe Louis
ville & Nashville’s project for taking ov
er the Clinehfield,” R. C. Tway, presi
dent of the Harlan Kentucky coal opera
tors’ association, testified. “AAV felt it
would give us a new market for coal, a
wonderful territory to ship into and a
good and well balanced railroad machine
to handle the traffic.”
During cross examination Air. Tway
said the Kentucky producers had no idea
the Louisville & Nashville's plans to take
over the Clinehfield would be objection
abb* anywhere.
"The first we heard of it was that the
Seaboard Air Line and Southern Rail
way had employed John SkeltEm AA’il
liams. former comptroller of the currency,
to scout the bushes arouniL the South
and scare up some opposition to the
project,” he added.
Mr.‘Williams, one of the oposiug coun
sel before the commission, promptly ask
ed Mr. Tway where he got “that gossip.”
Air. Tway replied that he had talked
to a number of interested people.
“*\\V promptly went to the Louisville
& Nashville and offered to hire lawyers
and do everything we could to back them
up." Air. Tway concluded.
It is expected the opposition to the
Clinehfield's control transfer will be giv
en an opportunity to put iu evidence
today or at some time later in the hear
ing.
PROHIBITION IS NOT
POPULAR WITH ELKINS
Alinister Has Resigned as Assistant Htatc
.Superintendent of Anti-Saloon League.
Hartford, Conn.. Sept. 23.—Prohibi
tion was criticized today by Rev. J. Her
bert Elkins, who has resigned as assist
ant state superintendent of the anti-sl
loon league.
He is quoted by the Hartford Uourant
as saying that lie lias no confidence that
America will stand permamently against
light wines and beer; that because he is
English he ha* been heretical enough to
stand up in meetings of the league and
say.: “It will take more than propaganda
to-convince me that, there is no virtue in
a bottle of Bass.”
"If I choose to let grape juice fer
ment in my cellar, no man has n right
to come into m.v house and tell me that
J must no do it.” is another statement
attributed to him.
Air. Elkins as quoted, expresses fear
•that hnrm may come to prohibition from
its friends, and thinks the country would
have been better off had it stopped with
prohibition of saloons and distilled liq
uors. Ilis conception of proper duty of
the anti-saloon league is not a “propa
ganda organization of teetotalling fa
natics.”

TEACHING AMERICANISM
IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS |
Steps Being Taken to Put the Law Into
Effect.
-Raleigh, Sept. 25.—Steps are beiug
takeu by the State Board of Education'
to put into effect the law sponsored by
the American Legion and passed by the
last General Assembly requiring the
teaching of Americanism in the public
schools of North Carolina, it was an
nounced today by the Department of
Public Instruction. •
Letters were sent by State Superin
tendent; A. T. Allen this week to pub-|
lishers, asking them to submit suitable
text books for t.he new compulsory course,
and it was stated in letters sent to the
various city and county superintendents
of public instruction that the State-
Board expects to select a proper course |
of study and appropriate text books, for,
the teaching of Americanism by January
1. 1924 . j
The superintendents were instructed
in the meantime to institute the new
course of study in their school without
the-use of text books for pupils. It j
was suggested that the work could be
carried on by conducting debates on suit-,
able subjects, oral recitations, readings
and the singing of patriotic songs. The
book. “Education for Democracy.” by
Brooks, was named as a handbook for
teachers of Americanism.
The law sponsored by the American!
Legion requires a. course in Americanism
of at least 30 class hours. Rules
adopted by the State Board of Education
provide for the teaching of the subject
in the sixth, seventh and eighth grades
with a ten-hour course in each, with the
work distributed as follows:
Sixth grade: (A) Duties of Gckhl
Citizenship. (B) Respect for the Na
tional Anthem and Flag.
Seventh grade: (A) Standards of
Good Government. (B)Character and
Ideals of the Founders of Our Country.

Mr. Everett’s Plan. #
Statesville Daily.
Secretary of State Everett's propo- '
sition that the State provide itself with
a live million revolving fund, working
capital, or capital stock, so to speak,
doesn't seem to have been received with
resounding applause. The Secretary of
State, a business man and a successful
one, doesn't fancy a business concern
always behind, always borrowing in
anticipation of money coming in. hardly
evwr even and never ahead. He would
provide a capital stock that wouM pre
vent constant borrowing, on short term
paper at high rates of interest. That is
the business way to conduct any busi
ness. but Mr- Everett lias mixed in with
State affairs long enough to know that
government business is rarely conducted
in a business way. From the Federal
i government down to the smallest
municipalities the governments are wL
ways borrowing against the time they
will collect. Usually the borrowing runs
ahead for operating- expenses, and pre
sently the floating debt has to be taken
| up with h bond issue.
; That method is neither good busi
ness nor' economy, but it's the way of
government. It is done because it is
custom ami because it seems impossible
to get even good business men to apply
business methods when they are in
charge of affairs of government. If
Secretary Everett had his revolving
fund the next legislature would probably
increase the appropriations to that ex
tent unless tl:e amount was nailed
down. And as the suggestion of a five
million fund indicates that the State
might be behind that much, those who
have contended that there is no deficit
will never agree to anything that would
make it appear that the State Treasury
isn't running over with cash.

ARTICLE A WILL NOT BE
INTERPRETED BY LEAGUE
This Decision Reached After Unanimous
Vote For Interpretation Failed to Get
by tlie League Assembly.
Geneva. Sept. 25 (By the Associated
Press). —The proposed resolution for
the interpretation of Article X of the
League of Nations covenant was rejected
by the League assembly in prelimi
nary session today. Persia alone voted
against the resolution, but a unanimous
vote was necessary to obtain the assem
bly's approval.
The resolution provided that the con
stitutional authorities of each state alone
should have the right to determine to
what extent military assistance were to
be extended other nations if their integ
rity were threatened.
I In the debate before the vote, the rep
resentatives of both Persia and Pana
ma spoke against the resolution. The
I Persian delegate, however, said his coun
try was willing- to have the resolution
submitted to the permanent court of in
ternational justice for advisory opinion.
| The Canadian spokesman favored the
resolution and the French representative
in an eloquent address also approved it.
The Frenchman remarked that the im
pression existed among some of the dele
gates that with Article X thus interpret
ed, the entrance of the United States
I into the league might be hastened. If so,
| he added, it was so much better.
