WOULD DISCONTINUE CROP FORE
CASTS.
The American Cotton ’ Manufacturers
Assoeiation in convention in jtew Arljaus
last week passed a resolution asking that
the Federal crop reporting bureau discon
tinue during June, July and August the
semi-monthly eotton crop forecast, on the
ground that such reports disorganize the
stability of values and react unfavorably
on the textile industry. The resolution
said the summer semi-monthly reports
which were inaugurated last year by an
act of Congress, furnish forecasts of pro
duction that arc not reliable enough for
logitfhiate trade and are used largely for
speculative purposes. If the forecasts are
to be continued the textile manufacturers
think they should deal with condition fig
ures only and that no production fore
casts should be made before the Septem
ber reports are compiled.
Other organizations have protested
against the government forecasts, most
of the opposition beitig due to the fact
that the forecasts of necessity cannot be
very accurate. It is a fact that the price
of cotton on the New York market, and
in other cities too. is affected by the re
ports. and if anybody benefits from the
forecasts it is the speculator.
The government probably takes every
precaution possible to get accurate fig
ures. but that doesn't change the fact
that such figures are impossible in June,
July and August. Last year the crop
in this county looked mighty bad on Aug
ust first, yet during that month enough
progress was made to change the final
figures entirely.
The fanner claims the forecasts do not
help him. The manufacturer says the i
same thing. They are the persons to be
considered most. The speculator receives I
the forecasts with glee, and of all persons
lie least of all deserves consideration from
the government in such matters.
EUROPE SEEKING CONSERVAT
ISM.
Tlie fall of the Herriot ministry in
France did not come as a great surprise
and the Greenville, S. <?., News says the
fall was “presaged last fall when the com
plete overthrow of the Labor-Socialist
party in England was regarded as a swing
of European politics back to the Conser
vative policies of government.”
Herriot came into power in much the
same way as did Ramsay McDonald’s
party. His regime had a socialistic air
about it that was much the same as Mc-
Donald’s. The socialists were very pow
erful in Europe for several years after
the war, but apparently they arc losing
some of their influence and power now.
Finances caused the downfall of the Her
riot cabinet, the, French people having
learned that the Premier was issuing
more money that the law allowed. The
taxutiou system of the socialists was not
liopular once the people got a true insight
intot the manner in which it was operat
ed.
The biggest problem in France today is
a financial one and the country will bene
fit much if the new government leaders
can give the people a sound basis for
their monetary, crisis.

By HARRY HUNT
NEA Service Writer
Washington—-Bark of President Cool,
• idge's insistence of “economy" in both
, public and private expenditures is h|s
appreciation of the extent to which the
nation’s income is mortgaged for taxes.
Despite a 25 per cent reduction ih
federal assessments last year, taxes—.
. federal, state, county and municipal—
took 15 per cent of the national wealth.
The fact is that public debts, state
and national, have reached such enor
mous proportions that interest and sink
ing* fund charges alone constitute a bur
den of approximately . SIOO per family
per year, on the average, for every house
hold in America. When*.there is added)
to this the additional taxes necessary to
meet the current costs of. government,
local, 'statet and federal, the tax load be
comes so staggering thkt it cannot long,
er be evaded as a real danger of our, na
tional wellbeing: ', i
If the total public debt, for instance,
was prorated equally among the heads
of families in America, each family would
be called upon to meet aq interest bear
ing debt of $1,500. This is about si«c
times the per family share of ten years
ago. As interest over the period of
payment will about equal the amount of
principal Jo be paid, the average liabil
ity of each family because of present
public debts is $3,000.
And while this is being paid, taxes
for current government costs continue to
pile up.
* * *
C. M. Keys, president of the Curtiss
Aeroplane Co., is not optimistic over the
outlook for the development of eernmer
the further information that while the!
Smith forces are ready for the compro-1
mise they do not believe it will be ac-!
cepted by the McAdoo forces. Therefore, j
the Smith , forces are preparing for war, |
without even si* as giving the pro- 1
posal a chance.. And .the proposal will be
submitted so far iu advance of the 11)28
campaign that should McAdoo refuse, the
Smith forces can get in much pre-con
vention work.
A1 Smith as the Democratic presiden
tial nominee could carry New York
State and possibly New Jersey. He
would get enough votes in the South to
carry the “solid South” but that would
be about all. There are millions of Am
ericans opposed to putting a Catholic in
the White House.
McAdoo could carry the South and
possibly some of the smaller western
States but he could not carry any of the
more important eastern States. Certain
ly he will have no real vote in the East
until the wranglings of the last conven
tion are forgotten.
We are of the opinion that the Demo
crats will stand a good chance in 1928 if
they can go into the convention without
either Smith or McAdoo ns a candidate.
If the old war breaks out again, then the
fare of the party will be much the same
as it was last fall.
I’niquc Judgement in Catawba Court.
Newton. April 11.—One judgment of
Judge Stack in Catawba Superior Court
today was unique. It. O. Abernethy.
prominent Hickory man, was convicted]
for-not paying his street tax in Hick-1
ory. Abernethy. as lie has been doing j
in many terms of court in Catawba, both;
civil and criminal, acted as his own
attorney, though lie has no license to
practice law.
The' judgment in this case was that
he be sent to jail for thirty days, but
capias not to issue if he pays costs of
this action. That he do not violate any
of the laws of the state or ordinances
of the city of Hickory for five years, and.
third, that he do not attempt to prac
tice law for a period of ten years from
the adjournment of this court. The de
fendant appealed.

he />ays. "That is something that must
be done by municipalities, in the same
way that roads and highways have been
developed by municipalities for vehicle
traffic.
‘■Then there are certain things the
national government should supply, just
as ’th'e government supplies lighthouses,

of commerce.
“At present, the • cost of transporta

cost of present established means of car

it difficult to induce people to change.

county jail a few days ago. declaring his
wife liad “nagged” him until he was ill.
He asked and received a chance to catch
up in his sleep. Now the sheriff is
finding his case a puzzle.
The wife today implored Tom to re
turn to their home. When he refused,
she threatened to prefer charges of
bigamy against him, declaring he had n
wife in Italy when he married her.
Tom only chuckled, declaring he al
ready is in jail and perfectly satisfied.
He won’t leave, the jail to support his

the charge of bigamy is pressed, he still
contentedly will be in jail.

Mentho-Sulphur, a pleasant' cream,
! will soothe and heal skin that is irri
tated or broken out with eczema; that
is covered with ugly rash or pimples,
or is rough or dry. Nothing subdues
fiery skin eruptions so quickly, says a
noted skin specialist.
The moment this sulphur preparation
is applied the itching stops and after
two or three applications, the eczema
is gone and the skin is delightfully clear
and smooth. Sulphur is so precious as
a skin remedy because it destroys the
parasites that cause the burning, itch
ing or disfigurement. Mentho-Sulphur
always heals eczema right up.
