Ptost and Flagg Cotton Letter.
New York, Dec. 20.—The market re
mains of a holiday character with few
features for comment though, generally
steady, reflecting the bullish spot ad
vices the supply of which continues
liberal. The spot position has been re
latively firm on demand through trade
houses ‘with eastern mill connections
supposed to represent belated price fix
ing though in quarters usually well in
formed it is said that not much more of
the earlier purchases by those mills re
main based on December. Buyers of
goods are reported still offering strong
resistance to advances covering only
their immediate requirements and buy
ing from second hands whenever they
can get any concessions. Dullness in all
markets seems probable now until after
the holidays but'with apparently several
buyers for every bale offered even with
the basis growing, daily stronger the
burden of proof rests chiefly on sellers
for short account and the line of least
resistance appears still to lead upward.

iooo Voices to greet
CHRISTMAS WITH CAROLS
Pl^^*tb M M*^Rig G Eve
Event One of Widespread Joy. „
Through the co-operation of the
municipal government of Philadelphia
1,000 persons Will gather in a huge
bandstand in City Hall Plata of the
City of Brotherly Love at half-past ten
o’clock Christmas Eve to siqg carols to
the accompaniment of a band. With the
first note a searchlight on top of Cfttyi
Hall tower will flash a salutation to
the singers and convey to the people in
city and suburbs the information that
the joyous singing of carols has begun.
This, according to the Philadelphia
Music League, under whose auspices
the event will he held, will be the M|s
feature of this year’s caroling. The band
stand will be erected and the hand
furnished by the city.
Outdoor caroling by small groups be
fore churches, hospitals and homes will
not be neglected, however. Plans al
ready have been completed for caroling
choirs to visit all the hospitals where
there are patients whom the* singing
will benefit mentally and physically.
Letters have one out from the ex
ecutive offices of the Music League to
2.000 ministers and choir masters Reek
ing the co-operation of the regular or
volunteer choirs, and 40.000 song sheets
have been printed for free distribution.
Many of the , carolers, as heretofore,
will be clad in black and red hooded
capes and they will carry lanterns of
unique design.
Arrangements have been made for
broadcasting the carols for the benefit
of the shut-ins in towns and cities and
farm houses far and near who have no
singing of their own.
J. Hampton Moore, mayor of Phila
delphia, is honorary president of the
Philadelphia Music League; Florence J.
Heppe, president, and Mrs. Frederick
W. Abbott, director. Executive offices
of the League are at 1823 Walnut
street-
Hundreds of other communities in
all parts of the country are preparing
for the inauguration or repetition this
Christmas of the delightful old caroling
custom, according to C. 51. Tremaine,
director of the National Bureau for the
Advancement of slusic. For instance,
Firley Baum, vice president of the
Georgia Children’s Home Society of
Atlanta, informs him that it is expected
that from seventy-five to 100 towns in
Georgia will take up the caroling cus
tom this year.
Information on how to irftiugurate
Chri-tmas caroling on a large or small
scale may be obtained without cost from
the National Bureau for the advance

THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
DESCRIBES FORD AS
ARCH REACTIONARY
J. A. H. Hopkins, Chairman of tbo
Committee of 48, Says Coolidge Won’t
Carry Ford’s Followers.
New York, Dec. 20. —Henry Fotrd
was characterized as “a reactionary of'
the first water” for his assertion thalt
he intends to support President Cool
idge, in a statement issued today by J.
A. Hopkins," chairman of the committee
“His (Ford’s) announcement comes
as a boon and will be a boom to the na-1
tjonal Farmer-Labor progressive con
vention,” the statement; continued. “Mr.
Ford has rendered Mr. Coolidge’s nomi
nation,a certainty, but he will not carry
the so-called Ford following into the
Republican camp, for he has Stamped
‘himself a recationary of the Coolidge
type. .. . The Ford proclamation of
Coolidge as safe sounds like political
fundamentalism.” /
i slr. Hopkins declared that a consider
able following which stood ready to back
slr. Ford in the event he had “pledged:
himself to progressive issues” now would
be given to “some candidate whose pro
gressism is a matter of proven record.”

Preventing Blindness.
Philadelphia Record.
It was found some years ago that a
very great part of the blindness was due
to the neglect of the infant’s eyes in
the first few hours after birth. Chicago
has been energetically enforcing protec
tive' means, and jthe health officials are
able to report that not a case of blind
ness occurred in more than 56,000 in
fants born in 1922. This State has a
law requiring the proper authorities to
Ibe notified if eye trouble appears in any
new-born child, and a few years ago
the State health authorities sept out a
circular letter directing the attention
of parents and family doctors to this and
urging immediate cimpliance with its re
quirements. We trust that Pennsyl
vania can make as good a showing rela
tively as Chicago.
Kentucky will have a woman Secre
tary of State for the first time in history
when Mrs. Emma Guy Cromwell takes,
office January 1.
The headdresses of Tibetan women of
