Danville, Va., July 22. —Charging that three men. Tucker C. Watkins, R. R. Patterson nnd Oliver J. Sands, dominate the Tobacco Growers’ Co-operative Asso ciation and that “it is impossible to have the board carry a measure over their ob jection,” a sensational suit was filed to dny in the United States court by J. A. Wade, a Halifax farmer, who leads what is said to be a large group of insurg ents. The suit is brought by Wade “in behalf of himself and of all other members of the Tobacco Growers Co-operative Asso ciation of Virginia, North and South Carolina,” and 1b brought not only against the three officials named but also against the tri-state organization. The suit was filed against Patterson, Watkins and F. R. Edmondson, who are 68 Icy rain.

Judge McDowell is also asked to appoint a re ceiver to take >harge of the association and to wind it up notwithstanding that the five-year contract has two years still to run. The action pertains chiefly to the re drying contracts and the charge is made that the three men have covertly fjone Into tEe- re-drying business and have made large sums of money by placing ire-drying orders with the concern, in which it is alleged Watkins and Pattersqn are silent partners of Edmondson. : It is the long heralded suit and it promises to be sen sational. • ' There is little doubt that it will bring Aaron Sapiro to Danville in September when the ease is tried. The issue is one of law rather than fact and for that reason it will be determined by Judge McDowell rather than a jury. Charges Secret Connivance. ” The most serious charge is that the three men secretly connived at the ex pense of the association to re-dry tobac co making half a million dollars in the years 1922, 1923 and 1924, in addition to their salaries. Watkins is set "down as earning SIB,OOO a year, Patterson $30,000 and Edmondson SIO,OOO. Facts Worth Remembering. School boys and girls would do well to paste the following in their histories for reference: The United States is the richest coun try in the world. The bank deposits in the United States exceed by millions the combined bank de posits of the whole world outside of this country. We have more actual cash than any other nation. Our national wealth at the time of the Civil War was about $7,000,000,000; at present it is $225,000,000,000. In a single year we {produce by manu facture and agriculture' more than the entire national wealth of ’France. England’s wealth is only $80,000,000,- 000., as against our $225,000,000,000. 1 Os all the wheat in the world we pro duce 22 per cent. t Os all the oats in the 1 world, 35 per tent. I Os all the cotton, 60 per cent. Ot ail the corn, SO per cent. Os all the horses, 25 per cent. Os all the cattle. 27 per cent. Os all the hogs, 40 per cent. Os all the world's dairy products, 25 per cent. One-half of the world’s pig iron is made from ore mined in the United States of America. America produces 50 per cent of the world’s copper. •* And 60 per cent of the worlds pe troleum. Besides this, we produce 25 per cent of the total production of woolens of the earth. Twenty-five per cent of the linens. Twenty-five per cent of the cotton doth. Forty-five per cent of the paper. Twenty-five per cent of the glass. I Thirty-six per rent of the shoes. And 60 per cent of the steel products. And we do this, having but five per' cent., or one-twentieth" of the world’s pop ulation. * lOUfEMSER FENNY ADB ARB CASH THREE BIBLES ARE PI T INTO THE COURT RECORD One Is King James* Version. One the Catholic Vulgate. Other Original He brew. ,■ . ;i Dayton, Tenn., July 21.—Three Bibles, were placed in the court .record as evi dence ot the defense in the Scopes evolu tion trial. Arthur Garfield Hays, Xew York at torney, lias consistently held before' the court that the word "Bible'’ in the Ten nessee anti-evolution statute was vague and indefinite. .His insistence that the state must prove “which Bible" has, how ever, been overruled by Judge Raulston. Speaking' late today in Judge Rauls ton'« outdoor court. Mr. Hays submitted for the record a copy of the King James Bible, a volume of the Vulgate Bible, or Catholic Bible, and tne Hebrew Bible in the original. He offered the three, lie said, to show what the translation should have been. Touching on'the matter of the differ ences in the translations of the Bible, the defense submitted for the record a statement by Dr. Hertnan Itosenwasser, San Francisco, identified by counsel as “a rabbi whose jualifications are vouched for by Dr. Kauffman KolileL liresident nneritus of the Hebrew Union College, of Cincinnati.” Rabbi Rosenwassdr’s statement said in part: "To understand the Bible one must know Hebrew. /'ln the translation of the Hebrew Bible, from which the King James Prot estant version is derived, there are many errors, some of the basic. "The word ‘create’ purports to be a translation of ‘bara.’ T!i!r Word ‘bara’ is used with reference to both inorganic and organic creation, man as well as an imal and plants. The word ‘bara’ is used to represent the whole cosmic scheme. The correct translation is ‘to set in motion.’ "In verse two of the King James ver sion of the Protestant Bible appears the following: ‘The spirit of God moved upon the face of the watere. ’ That is not a correct translation of the Hebrew. A correct translation of the Hebrew word ■marachfeth’ is ‘and God Animated, im parted life, vivified.’ The words ‘The face of the waters’ are ‘alpenai bam ayirt,’ which mean ‘to animate the face of the fluid mass.’ "In the Bible there are four distinct terms for man: Adam, Enosh, Gever and Ish. “In the first chapter of Genesis the word ‘Adam’ is used. The word Adam means a living organism containing blood. If we are descended from Adam, we are descended from a lower order—a living, purely physical organism contain ing blood. If that is a lower order of animal, then Genesis itself teaches that man descended from a lower ortler of animals, j : • “The tefms ‘Gever’ and ‘lsh’ refer to the intellectual and spiritual man. “If the Bebrew Bible were properly translated and understood one would not ■find any conflict with the theory of evo lution which would prevent him from ac cepting both.” , * Cut Out the Long Speeches. Mecklenbi»tg Times.' How to say it in a few words is the aim of speakers and preachers who want to entertain and instruct audiences with out putting the tired feeling on them. It's no small task to boil down a speech or a sermon to contain half the words used in the original construction. In this age of newspapers and magazines and the radio and other modern means for the transmission of intelligence there is less demand for long speeches than SMART BUYERS COME HERE! We re not getting all the tire business in town. We never expect to. But we’re getting our share and our business is growing constantly. The reason for this is that car owners have found our location is convenient, our service prompt, efficient and courteous, our merchan dise of the highest quality, and our prices surprisingly low. As a matter of fact, and we realize it sounds pretty strong, if every car owner in town who is not buying from us, really knew what we had to offer, we’d come pretty dose to Having a monopoly on the tire business here. We honestly believe this, because w’re already selling to scores of the brainiest tire buyers in town—smart people who look twice and think three times before they buy anything. If we can satisfy them and keep on doing it—we can please you, too. Yorke & Wadsworth Co. JO-54 South Unto* Street, Concord, N. C. Facts, Not Fiction, [stride Us!

As a warning to those who get themselves wound up for long speeches the follow ing Mark Twain story of a man who talked too long:, In this case the talker was a preacher, "the most eloquent I ever listened to,” said Mark. “He painted the benighted condition of the heathen so clearly that my deepest compassion was aroused and I resolved to break a lifelong habit and contribute a dollar to teach the Gospel. As the speaker continued, I decided to give five dollars, and then ten. Finally I knew it would be my duty to give ail the cash I had with me—twenty dollars. The pleadings of the orator wrought upon me still further, and I decided to borrow .twenty dollars from my friend in the next pew and give that also. That was the time to take up the collection. How ever, the speaker proceeded. He talked PAGE THREE | so long that I gradually lost interest and j dropped off into a aweet slumber. When I the usher woke me up by prodding me in rthe ribs with the collection plate, I not j only refused to contribute, but am l ashamed to state I stole fifteen cents j from the plate.” This story may not I have been strictly true, but there is more | than a grain of truth in it.

Danville, Va., July 22.—Frank Bliss, 52, was seated on tne porch'of .a house on Buford street at 4 oclock this after noon when a freight moved lazily up the grade.

His body was ground to small pieces. He had a sister here. No inquest was held as several people | saw tbe tragedy.
