Nov. 17.—One thousand armed police and firemen .will form a permanent escort for Queen Marie and her pnrty during their visit m Cleveland. The decision to provide an armed j escort for the royal p&rty was an- | non need today by Safety Director Edwin I). Barry following a confer- ! ence with city officials. Fear of pos sible disorders during the queen’s re ception here resulted from an indigna tion meeting last night, attended by. several" Hungarian societies who had previously been unsuccessful in an at tempt to prtsent a petition of protest to the city council. Mayor John D. Marshall, after a stormy council ses sion Monday, in which one member attempted to force a reading of the protest, denounced the petition ns "vile, scurrilous nnd unsupported by facts." Police Chief Jacob Graul today an nounced that leaders of the Hungarl *■ an societies were preparing to dis tribute 200,000 copies of the protest petition, and declared that, the corps of circulators Included a number of communists who participated in the May Day riots here in 1018. Graul expressed fear that, circula tion of the petitions might arouse "hostile and radical elements to at tempt some action against the royal party.” Stabbed In Bach Because He BpR la Wrong Direction.

This is considerable below the figure suggested by a consulting architect, who estimated that file minimum needs of the hospital would amount to $350,000. On the supposition that the permanent improvements will be granted, a maintenance appropriation of $130,796 is asked for the fiscal year of 1927-28. This is to be reduced $27,000 if the permanent improvement program is not granted. For 1928- 29. a maintenance fund of $129,172 is asked, which is reduced to $.87,832 if the improvement program is not ennet ed. The most urgent need, according to ' Dr. Miller nnd the trusteess, is for a | dormitory for the nurses, a new ward ' that will accommodate fifty beds, nnd 1 for a central alining hall and heating plant. Another building to take care 4 of a number of special department, iu ' eluding the clinic nnd school, is also . badly needed, according to Dr. Mil ler. - It was explained tnat for some time it has been the policy to con duct a school nt the hospital, so that the children that have to remain I’ll ere j- three, six or twelve months may keep up with their school work. At pres ' ent but one small room is available for this work, which is not sufficient, and the school is being conducted un der difficulties. Gaston county sup p plies the teachers and lias agreed to supply two teachers and to fully equip s the school if the hospital will supply the building. Space is also needed i for vocational school work, since an ] attempt is being made to start the 1 children in the direction of economic independence while they are still in e the hospital. But so far I’d is work ' in vocational education has been little v more than a feature, according to Dr. Miller, because of the inadequate fa cilities for handling it. , Dr. Miller was asked if it was found * that not all of the program could J be granted, if the school .could be !• eliminated, but he and his board were [■ all emphatic in declaring that the en d tire program was essential, and that It bad already been stripped of any " inessentials. Asked if the expansion requested would take care of the situation in fa definitely, or whether the demands up -- on the hospital would increase every •1 two or four years proportionately, Dr. Miller replied that he thought that if CONCORD, N. C, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1926 the present program were carried out. it would be sufficient to take eare of the present needs at least for this gen eration add jierhaps longer, as indfeit tions were Lint there was a very slight decrease in the number of or thopaedic eases of an indigent charac ter. Especially is this true in cases | of tubercular bones nnd joints, as this' type of disease is diminishing with the advent pf better and more milk. The majority of these eases are traceable to tile lack of milk and the proper kind of milk and ns milk becomes bet ter and cleaner, tile, disease tends to vanish. At present there is no special dor mitory for Lie nurses, neither is there a central dining hall. Both of these are now essential. Dr. Miller told the commission, beeause every inch of available room is now occupied, nnd congestion exists in every part of the present building, since ninety chil dren are being cared for with facili ties designed to accommodate only sixty patients. It was explained that it was pos sible to keep their expenses below those of similar institutions because of economy of management. For in stance, it was pointed out that all of the water nnd electric current con sumed is supplied to the hospital free by the city of Gastonia, and fiat many individuals help. Although no indication was given by .any of the members, of the advisory j budget commission ns to their attitude toward the hospital, judging from the number of questions asked and thor oughness with which the wiiole mntter was gone into, it was possible to set; that the commission was much inter ested in this institution and the work it is “doing, nnd that it saw the need of the new equipment asked for. 11l response to a question from a member, of the commission it was brought out that there are only five other states in the United States that have institutions of this charac ter, and that many of these are heav ily endowed by individual bequests, so that the states themselves only have a small amount to pay for their main tenance. However, ill Norm Caro lina, the state has had to bear vir tually all of the expense, though there is a tehdeney now on the part of a few to make special bequests to this hospital and the board hopes that eventually it may be able to accu mulate a substantial endowment from this source. The remainder of the day was de voted to hearing requests from other state institutions and departments, in cluding the State Hospital for the In sane at Goldsboro, for colored pa tients, the State Tuberculosis Snni fbrium at Sanitorium and the North Carolina college for negroes. A night session wag held at which some de partmental requests were considered. Negron is Accused ot Trying to Starve Girl.

PERSON’S SUIT Against the North Carolina Cotton Growers’ Co-operative Association Raleigli Tribune Bureau Sir Walter Hotel Raleigh, Nov. 18.—Evidently seek Ing new co-op* to conquer, Colone, Willie M. Person, of Louisbtirg. and a group of other attorneys, has start ed legal action that has for its even tual end the dissolution of the North Carolina Cotton Growers Co-opera tive Associatipn. The action is be ing taken in behalf of P. L. Par ham, Nash county, a member of the assoeistimr. as Ty-OaftmepPerson 111 in" self, and notice of suit was filed Tues day afternoon with the clerk of Nash county superior conrt. although no complaint has as yet been filed. The first move ou the part of the plaintiffs will be to seek a bill of discovery from the clerk of the Nash county court against the co-operative associa tion. Both U. B. Blalock, general man ager of the co-operative asssociation, and B. W. Kilgore, president of the association, were out of Raleigh Wed nesday when the intention of Colonel Person and his associates was learned. However, it was stated by F. D. Web ster. assistant secretary of Lie asso ciation. that this action came as no great surprise, and that although the association did not know as yet just what kind of action was being brought, it was not in the least worried at the outlook. He pointed out that every member of the association had full access to all books and information nt all times, and that any investiga tion of its affairs would be welcomed. No actual suit or complains is ex pected to be filed until the bill of dis- sought has been granted, it was explained by Colonel Person. Later, following the investigation under this bill, the formal notion will be brought under which it is hoped dissolution of the association may be brought about. Colonel Person has long been prom inent as a foe of co-operative market ing. and it was he who brought the first suit seeking Lie dissolution of the tobaeco co-operative association. It was he who also suggested to Judge Meekitis, as one of the attorneys for the plaintiffs, that a fee of less than $50,000 for services rendered would be '‘trivial” though he later said this statement, was made in a spirit of levity.

That . part of the route in Iredell county, extending to the Catawba rrveer, is known a« Project 624. and the por tion of the route in Cntowbn county; } from the river west to Newton , it known ns Project 6.17. The route ,t» be followed has been laid out in pc eordance with the Staate Supreuro ' Court's now famous Newton High way decision, in which the sion was permanently enjoined fedWk following the original route #jjpt. The new route represents KOlfl'V thing of a compromise between khM original route planned and the rdttte which the present road follows which was in existence h»n^.before the controversy arose. A new bridge will be required across the Catawba, river some mils« below wh#f* ? *Jpjp>Sj Highway (’ommission first inteftded to cress the river, and* a second bridge will be required over a creek near Newton. both of which will add materially to the total cost, of the road.
