Overtures for peace having been in

the economic boycott and do its ut

BOLL WEEVIL SITUATION
Infestation in This State Less fhan
Four Bears Ago.
Tribune Bureau
Sir Walter Hole]
Raleigh, Aug. 4.—801 l weevil in
festation in North Carolina cotton
fields is less than it has been in more
ttyan four years, according to R. W.
Leiby. entomologist of the State de
partment of agriculture. The hot,
dry weather that tins prevailed so
far has been very adverse to weevil
propagation, and has cooked the
young grubs in the squares, thus pre
venting their maturing. Hence few
bolls have been damaged.
All danger of weevil damage is not
past, however, according to Dr. Leiby,
u’.ip says that if the weather should
turn a bit cooler, with much rain und
•dampness, sufficient weevils could yet
mature to do considerable damage to
the top crop in the latter part of
A-ugust and early in September. Con
ditions so far, however, indicate very
slight weevil damage and it is not
likely that any more favorable weath
er conditions will prevail in the next
sir weeks than have in the past.
After a thorough investigation by,
field men of the entomology division
of the department, t'oe damage from
the cotton flea or „ hopper has been
found to be of considerable/ extent in
Lincoln and Gaston counties, Dr.
Leiby reports. More than ten fields
examined in these two counties were
found to he infested to the point of
serious damage, and several of the
farmers had dusted the fields twice
with powdered sulphur in an attempt
to control the pest, which had done
much damage to the bottom crop of
squares.
While the flea or hopper had been
found in almost all sections of the'
cotton be'.t. its damage has been con
fined almost entirely to certain areas
in Gastou and Lincoln counties.*
Aside from damage being done by
the bean beetle in the western part
of thg state, little trouble is being
experienced this year with insect
pests, the department reports.

CONSOLIDATED SCHOOLS

Raleigh.' Aug. 3.— (A s ) —Tie ten

' lina during the past four years has
been to go from large to larger,
’ points put an issue of State School
Facts off the press here in figures
showing that the number of rural con
' solidated schools have increased from
35f5 to 79(1, with a (1 crease in four
teacher schools and a proportionate
increase in die number of jarger ones.
Os the present dumber ,7Q3 are wot
white and 03 for negroes.
Consolidated schools, as explained
by School Facts, includes four, five
and-six, six and more than six-teacher
schools.
Since 1022-23 there has been a de
crease in the number of four-teacher
schools for whites from 156 to 110,
while there has been a proportionate
.increase in larger schools. Six-teach
er write schools have increased from
07 in 1022-23 to 174 five-and-six
teachers schools The number of more
than-six-teacher schools for whites
has increased from 205 in 1022-23 to
410.
Negro .schools of each type have in
creased during the past four years.
From- 21 to 1021-22, the number of
four-teacher negro schools has in
creased in four years to 40 and the
number of six-teacher schools has in

type of school to increase more rapid
ly than the smaller, the publication

increased only about 67 during the
four-year period while more than six
teacher white schools increased more
than 200.

WILMINGTON LEADS
In Providing Largest Number of Peo
ple With Work During June.
Tribune Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel
Raleigh, Aug. 4.—Wilmington leads
the list of cities in the state for pro
viding the largest number of people
with work during the month of July,
with 485. according to the monthly
report of the department of labor and
the United States employment bu
reau, just issued by Frank D. Grist,
commissioner of labor. Asheville
placed 445 in jobs, while Winston-
Salem took third place, giving em
ployment to 365. Greensboro fur
nished jobs to 325 people, Raleigh to
263, while Rocky Mount gave em
ployment to only eleven during the
entire month. Over the state as a
whole, 1,81)4 were furnished employ
ment through the employment service
of the department of labor, of whom
and 1,292 were men.*
In the report for the last- week of
July, ending July 31st, Wilmington
leads again, having furnished employ
ment for 131 persons, 105 of them
men, and 26 women. Asheville was
second, having supplied 87 new jobs,
and Winston-Salem third, with 77.
Labor conditions over the state
generally are very satisfactory, says
Mr. Grist, and despite the surplus of
summer labor caused by vacation
time releasing thousands of school
and college boVs who want summer
jobs, there is very little unemploy
ment, and most of these “summer
time” workers have secured jobs,’
too.
“The demand for unskilled labor
continues, and we are able to place
virtually all of our applicants in this
field,” said Mr. Grist. “And now.
with crops advancing rapidly and
good yields in prospect, a demand is
increasing for farm labor, which we
expect will get greater each week
-from now on. The peach season is
at its height in the Sandhills dis
trict, and much labor is being used.
We anticipate that the demand for
labor will increase steadily from now
on.”

Several have had to pay out $6.10
court costs, even when no fine was
assessed, and promise to get their new
license immediately. Tuesday nine
warrants were issued and several ar

pect. There are still about 20,000
automobile owners in the state who
have not obtained tbeir new licenses,
and who as a result are liable to ar
rest, the automobile license bureau
reports. A large number of these
are believed to be in Raleigh or its
vicinity, as owners have put off get
