"This excellent record for toxin nnti-toxin treatments in February rep resents rapid progress in dealing with Diptherin." said Dr. Cooper. "There are more than 80.000 children born in Xorth Carolina each year, or nil average of nearly 12.000 children a month. Thus we see that enough toxin-nnti-toxin was sent out to im mufiize. if used property, about 00 per cent of nil the children born in the state during the mouth of Feb ruary. "As has been stated by the Boqrd of Health repeatedly, smallpox and diptherin can very soon be entirley eliminated from the stnte except for an occasional attack imported from I outside. It is very easy to vaccinate a child against smallpox nt about six months of age.

POPE SEES GAIN IN CHINA’S CRISIS [ Parallel to Chaos in Europe When Christianity Came. | Rome, April 4.—The Pope sees the I struggle in Chinn ns a vast conflict ■between the old civilization and the j new, the result of which may be a slow Christianization of the whole I Orient, be told intimate friends in a I conversation today. , j The .present situation in China is almost exactly comparable to the chaos in Europe when the old Roman Empire broke up under the onslaught of the barbarians, to make way for Christianity, which swept the western world. The Pope has watched the tragic , struggle in China with intense in terest! often expressing his uifxiety for the safety of Catholic missionaries and asking daily for information on ' the situation of the apostolic delega tion at Pekin and the religious order to which Catholic priests and mission, I aries are attached. | Often in private conversation, the Pope, drawing on his historical knowl | edge, has made a comparison between i today’s events iu China and those in ’ Europe when the Roman Empire was jon the point of dissolution. Eighteen | centuries ago the same struggle was jin force, with rival generals on all | sides leading troops in bitter inter necine struggle, lighting for power, inflicting suffering on the people and i devastating the soil, i Today, the Pope feels, the situation lis exactly analogous. Out of the death pangs of the Roman breakup Chris tianity came to the Western world. Out of the contemporary travail in China, he feels, must likewise come a , great wave of Christianity sweeping . the East. | Tlie Pope expressed definitely his i hope that the civilization which in ■ evitubl.v must, emerge from the pres : etit chaos will be actually indigenous to the Chinese—limited as far as pos sible to the Chinese themselves. His ■ Holiness is glad to remember his own i actions —such as appointing natiVe 1 bishops—have been strictly in line ‘ with this direction. '.j The Pope hopes that a new culture ■ will rise in Chinn, no less illustrious | than the old. Concerning the details of his own personal day today interest in the Chinese tragedy, the Pope is I happy to recall that be asked the I Benedictine missionaries in China —to “ whom he confided care of the Catholic - University at Pekin—to remember tlie ■ deeds of their precursors in the Mid jdle Ages, when .monks, by their loving ' study and translation of old tnnnu -1 scripts, saved to the world the bulk , of medieval and ancient culture. 1| To China * | arr ' ....... • s Major A.

Roberson Says tlie Eastern Fanners Find It Hard to Compete With Western Farmers. Greensboro, April 4.—(A*)—Fear that farmers of tlie eastern section of tlie cotton belt will not be able to compete with those of the western section of the belt in the production of cotton was expressed by George P. Roberson, president of the Atlantic Cotton Association in his annual ad dress before the convention today. Mr. Roberson declared that he saw "very little hope for the eastern farmer in re spect to cotton so long as it was pos sible for the western belt farmer with what little cultivation is necessary in that section with machinery—for the man to raise and market 100 acres of cotton against 10 or 15 acres in the east.” The President mentioned that cot ton was produced in Texas this sea son, for less than five cents per pound of lint, aud profits ran as high as siHi per acre while in the eastern, sec tion of the belt the "most im|Kirta«t cash crop" was produced at a loss. "Tlie billy possible salvation of the eastern farmer." he declared, “is the production of more pounds of better staple cotton per acre, such as is adapted to tlie use of our mills. To my mind the time has come when it is imperative that something be done if the .eastern belt is to continue to produce cotton in any large way."

SAPIRO NOT VSED BY COTTON GROWERS Has No Connection With State As sociation, Blalock Asserts. Raleigh. X. C.. April 4.—Aaron Sapiro, plaintiff in a million dollar libel suit against Henry Ford, is not connected with the North Carolina Cotton Growers’ Association aor does the association use the so-ealled "Sapiro contract.” F. R. Webster, assistant manager of the association, said here. Mr. Webster's statement, was brought forth by published reports from the scene of the trial at De troit that Sapiro was in the “good graces" of the North Carolina mar keting organization. Air. Webster said Sapiro had an active hand in organizing the asso ciation and was retained by it for two years as consulting attorney, and did not offer to renew its con tract at tbe end of that period. F. B. Blalock, general manager of the association, was out of the city today and could not be reached for a statement but he has commented formally on the fact that the North Carolina association did not use the "■Sapiro contract" because officials believed it "too rigid” to meet the 'demands of the association. “Sapiro knows co-operative mar keting law. but he does not know anything about marketing cotton," Mr. Blalock has said.
