WHAT’S THE MATTER WITH THE 1 ‘ RAILROADS? From The Augusta Chronicle comes the surprising information that only one railroad in the South, the Georgia & Florida, is co-operating in the Southern Exposition to be held in New York in May. “Where,” The Chronicle asks, “are the - other great railroads?” And further: , “There is the great Southern Railway System which boasts that “the Southern Serves the Smith,” there is the Atlantic Const Line, the Louisville & Nashville, the Seaboard Air Line, the Central of Georgia and other great railroads. They , all were asked to go into this plan to ad vertise the cast resources of the South and all of them refused. What is the reason? These roads have millions, even hundreds of millions invested in the South, and yet they do Dot seem to think it a good thing to put money into an exhibit of South ern resources.” The Southern Exposition is an untried experiment, to he sure, but that is more reason the railroads of this section should co-operate to make it a success. The exposition is designed to exploit the opportunities of the South and the rail roads are needed to make this exploita tion a success. The Greenville. S. C., News says “there is appalling ignorance of the South in New York and the Southern Ex position is conceived in the hope of sub stituting enlightenment for it. At a me chanical convention in New York last year a visitor expressed great surprise that there were ice companies in the South—he (Pd not know the Southern people had money enough to buy ice. The Southern 1 Exposition hopes to drive away such foolish ideas and to impress the metropolis with the progressiveness and up-to-dateness of the section which only a few decades ago whs virtually in ruins." The railroads have as much to gain from the exposition as any other bush ness industry and failure for the exposi tion would be felt by them along with the rest of the South. The Greenwood. S. C.. Journal several times has stressed the backwardness of the railways of the South in promoting through publicity and other methods the development of the South. ANOTHER POWER PROJECT. The Southern Power Company is pre pared to spend another million and a quarter dollars in this section of the country for water-power development. From offices of the company in Charlotte comes the announcement that the latest development will be made near Lancas ter, S. C.,'the work to be started as soon as another project now under develop ment ia completed. Officers of the company in making the announcement of the new plant 'pointed out that demand for electric power made 1 ' it necessary for the company to add to its present facilities. The proposed plant will make twelve for the company and will add materially to the power produc tion of the organisation. The Southern Power Company is rapid ly becoming one of the gigantic indus trial organisations ,iu the South. For a ntimheft of yoara ,Vjfc tow'been furnishing Northland South Carolina with practically all of its power and the fact thaf another plant is to be erected to care t<4 the -increased business of this section indicates - that the company intends to keep .fyice: with the industrial develop- HunFsgSS” By HABRY B. HUNT "iTtoy. * , NEA Service Writer ~ I This ancestor refused to take the Washington—lt may be a shame to money—or at least objected to taking take the money, but— Any member of Congress having con- j seientiouß scruples against accepting the recent pay increase that body voted itself will just have to accept it. if he doesn’t take it willingly, it wilil be forced on i him. Such is the ruling of Comptroller Gen- j eral J. R. McCarl, who normally is the; best man in the government to let loose j of a penny that he doesn’t have to part j with. In his job as independent auditor of Uncle Sam’s expense, MeCar! disallows j all sorts of bills that people want paid. But the stand McCarl takes in regard j to congressional salaries is that the law says they aye Jiff,ooo a, year and $lO,-1 000 they must be. • Any -tnelnterf who refuses to sign the payroll the SIO,OOO basis seeks to evade if nos actually break the law, he holds. And of course that is not to be thought of. The only legal coarse, McCarl rules, ’ for members who do not feel they are worth SIO,OOO a year as congressmen, is for them to accept the full amount, receipt for it, and then return snch t amount as they deem an overpayment j to the treasury's “conscience fund.” I• * * The McCarl ruling came as a result cf the relusal of the Hon. Henry St. George Tucker, of Lexingtou, Va.. to ac- cept his fipst salary check drawn at $lO,- 000 instead of $7,500 a year. It's a matter of family pride, it seems, with the Hon. Henry St. George. One of his ancestors was serving in Congress when the bill was passed rais ing congressional salaries from $5 to $8 NEGR& ROBBER GANG IS e BROKEN UP BY POLICE Charlotte Officers Hold Five Blacks For Ma«y Robberies In That City. Charlotte, March 31.—With the ar rest here early this morning of five ne groes, 'Sir said to have police records, local police department officials expressed the opinion that the gang of robbers which has been operating in the city for the past 'Sevecal months has been broken up. | In addition to the arrests the police announced the recovery of articles of merchandise, said to have been stolen from local stores, valued at between sl,- 500 and $2,000. The negroes under ar rest are Pat Scott. George Harris, Son Harris, John Witherspoon and Will Lockhart. Detectives now are on the trail of an other member of the alleged gang of rob bers and believe that with the sixth ar rest they will have in the toils the group that for several months has preyed on mercantile establishments and Homes in THE TWENTIETH IN CHARLOTTE. Charlotte is making very elaborate plans for the celebration to he held on the twentieth of May. President Coolidge has been invited to attend the celebra tion and invitations have also been ex tended to other prominent men of the nation. Even if the President finds it im possible to attend Charlotte will have Senator Borah and other celebrities to offer to the thousands who will gather for the celebration. A pageant depicting local history will be one of the many features of the day and committees in charge of tin- work ate planning to give a prominent place on the program to the Cabarrus Black Boys, those heroes who bravely defied the King. It is a fact that Charlotte has at tracted thousands of people for Twentieth of May celebrations when no such pro gram as has been arranged this year was offered. This year it seems certain that she largest crowd in the history of tin city will be present to witness and par ticipate in the festivities which will be offered. EVERETT TRUE BY CONDO ( HO.

I j Just how the thing was finally settled, history doesn’t make quite clear. But . as one who has made it a lifelong prac tice to uphold the precepts and tradi -1 tione of his ancestors, Hon. Henry St. j George Tucker is impelled to protest the pay raise, even to the point of declining ■ his salary check. | It Tucker persists in spurning the j cash, it is suggested a memorial be eTect !ed (to hi« memory as a Democrat who by personal sacrifice demonstrated the I official economy which President Coolidge preaches. I One suggestion for such memorial is a life-like and heroic-sized American dol i lar, placed in an appropriate niche over, J the treasury doorway.

P. seat in the Serrate, seem to feel that Senator Selden Spencer will be unable to swing another : victory in -that border commonwealtth. Friends of Pershing, however, feel that while it Would be fine for the G. O. P. jto have Pershing as its candidate, it would, not be so desirable for Pershing to be a candidate. The party would have everything to ! gain by his nomination. He would have everything to lose. It is not to be expected that Pershing, as a senator, could add anything to the prestige and fame he won as commander of the American armies in the World War. the city. Articles taken with the five negroes this morning directly connect them, according to the officers, with a number of robberies here. TODAY’S EVENT* Wednesday, April I, 1935 ’Ware the day! Remember It's April 1, All Fools’ Day. Sixtieth anniversary of the battle of Five Forks, one of the notable engage | ments of the war between the states.

Burlington* April 1. —Lore for an in valid sister, an epileptic sufferer, whom Mrs. Earl W. Idleman took from a Columbia, 8. C., hospital and brought here, where abe expected to join her hug ! band, a banker, .is suggested as the rensou for her husband leaving a few hours after she arrived, with no word! from him since. Mrs. Idleman, a refined lady of mature yeartj, appealed to the police de partment for aid, admitting that her financial circumstances were exoausted in getting here, and in transporting her her permanent home. She told O&ief R. D. Bain mat her husband said “What in the world did you bring her for?” commenting on her sister, who she declared had been the subject of abuse in the hospital in which she was a patient. Livingston’s Cotton Letter. New York, March 31.—The market he« shown an improved tone today- Per haps this has resulted largely from its improved technical position hut aside from that the day’s news has been rather less encouraging from the bear ish standpoint. Declines in grains and stocks have now gone far enough to sug gest that liquidation in those markets has pretty well run its course. People who have been selling cotton on the weakness in grain, at least, have sound less encouragement in th position of what around 145 per bushel for May delivery, and the situation in this re spect combined with the fact that trade buying appeared in considerable volume on the basis of 24.50 for July contracts yesterday and with the failure of this morning’s weather map to show as much rain ns anticipated in the southwest, has led to considerable covering, pos sibly to some fresh buying in cotton to day. As a result prices have recovered something like 30 points of their recent loss and while there has been no re covery of general confidence on the long side, shorts arc becoming less aggressive. LIVINGSTON AND CO. More than one hundred establishments in the United States are now engaged in the manufacture of washing machines and their combined output has a value of more than $40,000,000 a year. Some thing like 10,000,000 pounds of eopiper are annual consumed in the manufact ure of the tanks or tubs of the washing machines.
