V' .v‘ Change Ratess For ,U. I). C, ' Meeting. The dates for the annual convention of the North Carolina division I'nited Daughters of the Confederacy, which is to ha* held in Greensboro, have been changed from October 10 to 15 to Oc tober 3 to 6 inclusive, according to an nouncement made in Rocky Mount by Mrs. R. D. Holt, president of the divi * - • mmmmmmmm mm Mrs. Holt likewise announced that two of the general officers of the Daugh ters had accepted invitations to be pres ent. These are Mrs. JJvingstone Rowe Schuyler, president general, of New York, and Mrs. W. E. Massey, director general of the Children of the Confed eracy, of Hot Springs, Ark., Numerous other prominent women are expected to attend the state meeting, but Mrs. Holt is especially delighted at sectiring these two officials to take part in the program. The date of the State meeting. Mrs. Holt stated, was changed' primarily to . accommodate Mrs. Schuyler as she could not be present on the dates first fixed. A contributing cause to the change also lay in the fact that the Greensboro fair would also be underway during the Oc tober 10 to 13 dates. Mrs Holt expects a large attendance of Daughters at the gathering and is an ticipating one of the most successful ami enjoyable conventions that the North Carolina division has ever held. She states that Greensboro Daughters are al ready making elaborate plans to enter tain the meeting and the hundreds \yho will attend from all sections of the state.

Crawfish Causes Dam to Give Way. Lepoir, Aug. 9.—The dam at Alay view Lake, located in Mayview Park Blowing Rock, bursted and completely drained the lake. No damage was done. The break- in the dam was caused by crawfish. It seems that the terracotta tile had been URed instead of iron tile in some of the drainage system. It is be lieved that the crawfish worked through from the tilling and started water seep ing through. Mia yview Lake govern only a low acres and there was no farm land for a number of miles below. By the time the water had reached the Globe it had i spread 1 out so that there was no damage done to- the people of that section. j Two million nine hundred thousand persons in /Irent Britain are drawing I disability allowances, costing $l6O a head.

Asheville, Aug. 9.—Majority stock holders of the Dixie Fire Insurance Company, of Greensboro, were perma nently enjoined this afternoon by Judge James E. Boyd in United States district court from interfering with the contract for insurance made by the executive com mittee of the Greensboro concern with the Hartford Fire Insurance Company, of Connecticut. The. injunction was di rected to C. O. Robinson and L. C. Blades, of Elizabeth City, who recently purchased the majority of stock in the insurance company. Robinson and Blades had bought up the stock, it was alleged, and after the contract had been "made witb^'l!f' r Tf!'AWilt-rf CMmpany in an effort to,defeat th"e' contract which calls for a reinsuring of about 90 per cent, of the business of the Dixie Company, for which the Connecticut company prom ised to pay a considerable price. The court ruled that the contract with the Hartford company was an ad vantageous one and could not be breached. The court further held that the individ ual defendants. Alessrss. Robinson and Blades, trying to breach it, would not be permitted as majority stockholders to vote or do anything against the contract that might prevent it from being carried out by compel*!ent officials of the Greens boro concern. A. L. Brooks, general cottnsel for the Dixie company, and one of the attor neys appearing for the Hartford com pany, this afternoon said that the deci sion of the court is a victory for the mi nority stockholders of the Dixie com pany and for the Hartford company. Air. Brooks asserted that it puts the Greensboro company on a firmer founda tion than ever. RUBE WILSON MAY GO.UP THIS FALL Chicago White Sox Among Clubs Ang ling for Lanky Portsider. Eddie Brietz in Charlotte News. * . Another member of the Hornets may advance to faster company this fall. He is none other than Rube Wilson, elongat ed southsider. Several clubs are angling for file Rube, among them the Chicago White Sox. It wouldn’t come as a surprise if the rube were sold before long. He is go ing too good to remain in this/ company. Felix I layman thinks Wilson is worth a good price. He believes he could sell him for a fancy figure if he could keep him another year. But Felix won't try to keep him be cause he is afraid of the draft. If Wil son isn’t sold before winter, he's sure to be drafted. Too many scouts have spoken well of him. , The Rube is just beginning to find himself. He always had plenty of stuff, but he didn’t try to improve himself un til this year. • He’s breezing along nicely, turning in four and five hit games almost every time he twirls.

C, Bryant in Charlotte Observer Washington, Aug. 9.—The New Eng- 1 land chickens are going home to roost. I Four years ago the Republicans, led by Alassachusetts partisans, made their campaign against the Democrats on the j charge that the south was in the saddle , in Washington, and riding rough-shod over other sections of the country. The late Claude Kitehin and his as sociates in the leadership of the house and senate committee chairmen were hammered from one end of New Eng land to the other. The west joined in the cry of southern domination. Be fore Air. Coolidge has actually reached the White House the battle cry of "Too hutch Now England" has been raised by •’progressiveness of the west.” From the moment tile Inst rites have been said at the grave of the late War ren G. Harding the. racket will start.' Here is the list: President Calvin Coolidge; Senate lender. Henry Cabot Lodge: and Speak er of the House, Fred Gillett, all Atas saclms'etts; chairman of the foreign re lations committee. Henry Cabot Lodge; chairman of the powerful senate judi ciary committee, Frank B. Brandegee, of Connecticut; chairman of the import ant committee on naval affairs, Fred Hale, of Alaine; chairman of the immi-! gration committee. Letjarron B. Colt, Rhode Island; Senator George R. Aloses, of New Hampshire, is a candidate for president protenlfyore of the senate. ' In the next Congress more. New Eng landers will get chairmanships. A hot time is coming over the "rule 6f New England.” Republicans as well 4s Democrats will shout it from the housetops. President Coolidge is said to be very friendly towards the south. In the campaign of 1920 he was one of three governors who campaigned in Ken -1 lucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Vir ginia and West Virginia. He made several speeches in North Carolina. His conservative way attracted attention there. If Air. Coolidge decides to enter the face for the Republican nomination he , ivill look to the south for strong support. He has very little patronage to dis tribute. but southern republicans that count for anything ate generally loyal to I the man that is in. It is believed here that within a very short time Secretary Hughes, Secretary Hoover, Senator Hiram Johnson, former Governor Imwden, of Illinois. President Coolidge and several others will be in a spirited contest for the nomination. Messrs. Hughes and Hoover are strong Supporters of the Harding plan for the world court. They would divide the woman vote on the proposition. It was indicated here today that the league of- women voters would get be hind the man who takes that end of the international controversy. A statement issued from headquarters reads: “Grief for the nation's loss in the death of President Harding should be mingled with grartitude for his last words and for his deTermtnJMtm to push the plan for the world court and the peace of the world. “All thoughtful Americans, and es pecially men and women interested in the cause of peace—-and who is not in terested in that great crying world need? —will value the fact that Presi dent Harding’s last public utterance, made when he was even then too ill to speak, dwelt on his longing for the peace of the world and on his faith that law cau be substituted for war. He emphasized the plan so near his United States into the permanent court of in ternational justice, speaking out of the experiences which only the man who oc cupies the high office of President cau obtain. His death will not have been in vain if ft rouses' till America to tbe wisdom of the great plan which was his last message to the nation.” This statement was issued by Aliss Ruth Alorgau. who heads the league's work for international co-operation to prevent war. Frank A. Hampton, secretary and treasurer of the senatorial congressional committee, believes that Mr. Coolidge would be easier to defeat than President Harding would have been. He thinks that the New England stamp will hurt him in the west. Heavy Auto Death Toll. Chicago.
