MAGAZINE CARRIES STORY
OF LIFE OF J. B. EFIRD
| North Carolina Writer qives Sketch of
i Charlotte Man, Head of Department
i Store.
! Charlotte Observer.
i The March number of The American
i Magazine carries a highly interesting
| story of the outstanding success of
i Joseph B. Efird, of Charlotte; head of
i a chain of 37 department stores in the
[ two Carolina* and Virginia. The author
i of the ’ story is W. 0.. Saunders, editor
i of The Elizabeth City-Independent. Mr.
| Saunders came to Charlotte a few months
ago for an interview with Mr. Efird.
I “What He Learned on a Rocky Farm
Made J. R. Efird Head of 37 Stores,"'
is the caption of the story.
An intjmate word-picture of Mr.
Efird’s life," beginning in Anson county
where he}.knew something of privation
and hardship, is giveif. He began his
business eareer by “clerking” in a store
on Saturdays. Then he came to Char
lotte and worked for H. M. Efird, his
brother, for the munificent wage of sls
a month. When a smallpox epidemic
hit the town, business conditions were
such that /he young man, who was later
to become ope of the dominant merchants
on this part of the south, was “laid off.”
Six months later lie was again “taken
on,” and for T 8 months more received
the sls a month compensation. Then
he and another brother opened a store
in Concord, out of which they made a
success.
On the death of H. M. Efird. J. B.
Efird was brought to Charlotte and put
in charge of the business here, the fi
nancial outlook for which was not alto
gether satisfactory. Rut the tfffairs. of
; the organization were cleared of obliga
i tions, and the. business prospered and
| J. B. Efird grew with it until today
| he and his brothers are operating 37
i stores.

CONGRESSMAN’S SALARIES
NOW REST WITH COOLIDGE
House Follows Action of Senate in Giv
ing Approval; Cabinet Members Also
Favored.
A\ ashington, Feb. 20.—Salary increas
es for members of Congress and the
I’resident's cabinet were put up to the
executive today with adoption by the
house of a senate amendment to the leg
islative appropriation bill.
The President’s attitude toward the
proposal has not been determined, and
he is expected to consult the budget
bureau before he decides whether to ap
prove or veto the bill.
The house, like the senate, avoided
a roll call which would have put the
members definitely on record in approv
ing the salaries amendment today by a
vote of 237 to 93.
Unless vetoed, it will increase the sal
aries of senators and representatives
from $7,500 to SIO,OOO a year, effective
March 40th, and of speaker, vice
president and cabinet officers from sl2 -
000 to $15,000..
Several efforts were made to put the
vote of the members on record but the
required one-fifth of members never could
be mustered to favor the move. The
