STATE BONDS WILL HE
OFFERED FOR SALE SOON
' Bonds Valued at $20,000 000 to Up
Sold By State on April 25th.
Tribune Bureau.
Sir Walter Hotel.
: ltaleigh. April 11.—High serial ■
bonds amounted to $20,000,000. of
the recently authorised $30,000,000
I issue of 1027. will be offered for
| sale by the state of North Carolina
on April 25, in the office of State
Treasurer Ben H. Lacy, and adver
tisements to this effect are appear
ing in eighteen daily newspapers over
the state Sunday or Monday , and
again on April 20. The bonds are 1
uso to be advertised in two New j
York bond journals, and in the
Manufacturers' Record, Baltimore. |
"But we are hoping that nt least 1
| a large part of thin $20,000,000 is
| sue will be purchased within tin'
state.” said Mr. Lacy, and is the
main reason we are advertising the
issue so extensively ill the state it
self, in the hope that North Carolina
banks jand . bankers may secure n
part or all of the bond offering. The
fact that, these bonds are tax-five
within the state should make these
bonds unusually desirable for North
Carolina investors.
"Frequently in the past, we have
received letters from banks or hank
ers in the state desiring to purchase
a portion of bond issue, but usually
after the issue has been sold. Then
another thing that stands in the
way of selling these bonds within
the state, is that almost always, the
big New York bond houses bid on
the entire issde. or will not bid at
all. I have frequently asked them to
exempt a portion of the bonds for
North Carolina investors, but they
will not do this.
"The result has been that since
the s-tate always need the money, it
is forced tio sell the entire blocks of
bonds offered to the lowest bidders,
who generally are the eastern buy
ers. by advertising this issue ex
tensively in the state between now
and April 25. when they nre to be
sold, we hope that a syndicate may
he formed in North Carolina to take
up the entire issue of $20,000,000,"
Mr. Lucy said.
Under the terms’ speeified for this
sale, bidders will be required to
name an interest rate not exceeding
4 1-2 per cent, and in a multiple of
one fourth of one percent. The bonds
have been approved by Chester B.
Masslich, New York Bond attorney.
A circular describing the bonds in
detail is being prepared by Mr. Laey,
and will be mailed by him to any
who request it.

Products Os Milk and Factories In
State Pass Billion Dollar Mark
The Tribune Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel
i Raleigh. April 11.—Products of the
j mills and factories of North Caroline
i for 1925 were valued at $1.050.0434,
1117. passing the billion mark-for thf
j tir-t time, according to figures of the
! census bureau' of the United States
1 department of commerce, made public
| yesterday.
| Those figures were takeu from the
j regular biennial industrial censfts rif
the department which will he released
soon. Tile summary of North Caro
lina's industrial output was furnished
by Wade H. Phillips, director of the
department of conservation and de
velopment. and 11. L. McClaren, of
Charlotte, chairman of the indtistrisll
bureau of the department by Secrd
; tnry of Commerce Herbert Hoover. j
Increase of the value of the manic
: fncturing industries' of the state fojr
j 1925 was approximately one hundred
! millions or $98,523,518 over the pre
j ceding census of 1923, which showed
j a value of $951,910,599 for the manu
! factored products of the state,
j A trend toward larger establish
ments is shown from the census fig
ures, which tabulate a slight decrease
in the number of plants although
there were substantial increases in
the number of workers, the amount
of wages paid and the total value of
the products. v In 1925 there were
2,014 manufacturing establishments;
in 1923 there were 2.070: and in 1921
there were 2,002.
A steady rise in the number of the
workers is shown in the four-year
period from 1921 to 1925. The tabu
lation reveals that an average of 182,-
234 wage earners were employed in
the industries in 1925: 173.787 in
1923 and 135.833 in 192.1.

THE COTTON MARKET
Opened Barely Steady at Decline of
4 to 5 Points.—Prices 18.28 For
July.
New York, April 11.—(/P) —Tlrei
cotton market opened barely steady
today at a decline of 4 to 5 points in
response to relatively easy Liverpool
cables. Enough‘buying on the unfav
orable situation in the South held
prices around 14.28 for July and 14.71
for December, however, and the mar
ket later rallied 2 or 3 points from the
lowest, w ith trading comparatively
quiet at the end of the first hour
Private cables attributed the de
cline in Liverpool to hedging nnd Bom
bay selling, and said (here was only
limited demand for cotton cloth from
India.
Figures on the production and sale
of cotton goods in 1 the domestic mar
ket for the first quarter of this year,
however, seemed to make a favorable
impression on sentiment and probably
helped steady the early market.
At midday July was holding around i
14.32 and December 14.75 or about
2 points net lower.

DENIES AMERICA WANTS

Hugh Gibson Says America Is Not
Unfriendly to Genex-aJ Disarmament
Conference.
Geneva, April 11.-—CP)—With the
preliminary disarmament meeting here
in danger of collapse because of a
conflict over the methods of limiting
navies, Hugh Gibson intervened in the
debate today for the purpose of re
moving any impression that the Unit
ed States in proposing a tbree-power
conference sought to prejudice the gen
eral disarmament conference.
His statement was made after M.
Paul Boncour of France had remark
ed that the three-power conference had
hovered over the preparatory commis
sion since the beginning of its session
and had disagreed with a declaration
by Lord Cecil of Great Britain to the
effect that the commission should avoid
doing anything to prejudice the three
power meeting.

Wage earners of North Carolina
were paid during 1925 the sum of
$134,237,097 for their work and in
1923 they received a total of . $127.-
537.921. The greatest increase in
wage earnings, however, was recorded
between the latter two years, the earn
ings- In 1923 being approximately one
third more than in 1921. when the
workers received only $94,234.837.
Materials worth $550,700,905 were
used in the manufacturing processes
in 1925, and a value of $499,727,152 !
was added in the finished products, or
approximately doubling the value of I
the raw articles through finishing into
marketable products. In 1923. $510.-
148.042 in raw products were used to
create a value of $951.910.599 in tin-1
ished materials, milling through the
manufacturing processes a worth of
$435,701.957; and in 1921 the com
parison was; cost of materials $397.-
904.930; value of products, $005,117.-
738; value added by manufacture,
$285,152,802.
In line of the total value of man
ufactured products, cotton goods led
with first place under the federal clas
sification ; tobacco was second, and
furniture was third. However, com
bining the two classifications of to
bacco manufacturing, chewing, smok
ing and snuff with the separate classi
fication of cigars anil cigarettes, the
tobacco industry led cotton goods in
total value of output.
The cotton goods industry also
showed by far the largest number of
workers and less in the total payroll.
There were also more cotton goods'
plants in 1925 than any other inilustry
witii the exception of the lumber in
dustry, which was divided into smaller
traits.
MAKE TEST CASE ON
COUNTY FINANCE ACT
Case Will Come as Soon as Some
County Seeks to Issue Bonds Under I
New Law.
The Tribune Bureau j
Sir Walter Hotel j
Raleigh, April 11.—The test suit to j
determine the validity of the county I
finance act —it has been decided not!
to include either the municipal finance j
act or the permanent appropriations!
act —will be brought as soon as a j
county makes a move to sell bonds j
under the act, it has been announced I
by Assistant Attorney General Frank j
Nash. Anil since Wake county is
soon to market some bonds, under the)
new finance act. it may be that the]
test ease will be brought here in Wake ■
though Mr. Nash would nut confirm
this. f
It was decided definitely to abandon]
the plan to bring an injunction suit
against the secretary of state, to pre
vent the distribution of the public
laws, in order to secure a test of the
nets which has been questioned by
Chester B, Masslich, New York bond
attorney, after a conference between
Governor McLean and Mr. Nash, fol
lowing the return of Governor Mr-
Lean from New York. The governor
agreed with Mr. Nash that neither
the municipal finance act nor the per
manent appropriations acts were in
any way affected, as Masslich thought,
nnd that the county finance act was
the only one concerning which there
might be a question raised.
They further decided, however, that
instead of bringing an injunction suit
that might tie up the distribution of
the public laws indefinitely, that it
would be better to test the county
finance uet through the regular chan
nels when some county should attempt
to sell its bonds under the act. And
this procedure will be followed.
In the meantime, partly ns a re
sult of the threatened injunction, work
has been rushed on the .printing and
binding of the public InVs which is
being done in Charlotte, and it is ex
pected that 400 copies will be ready
for distribution to Superior Court
judges and clerks of court today. It
is thought all of the 5,00 volumes will
be ready by April 15th.

escaped from drowning by breaking
the glass in the automobile.
The accident took place at a point
where the automobile, coming from
a side road, made a sharp turn on
the main road onto the bridge and
was near the spot where Shep Hart,
