BRYCE LITTLE ATTORNEY AT LAW 4th Floor Davis Building JITNEY DRIVER IS ROBBED AND WOUNDED Statesville, July 1. Jim Nor man, of Concord, a native byrian, was found with his hands hound and sAously injured on the Buffalo shoals road near the Catawba river this afternoon about 2 o'clock. Norman operates a public service car at Concord. He says two men at Concord engaged him to bring them to Statesville. On the road to Buffalo shoals the passengers direct ed him to turn off on a branch road. When they reached an old abandon ed house Norman was ordered to atop his car. He was hit over the head and face and ordered out of his ar. He was forced to go into the Id house, where he was gagged, bound hand and foot, and robbed and left, bleeding. His assailants, took from Norman about $100 in cash besides several checks, and left bis seven-passenger Nash car over the highway toward Newton and Hickory. Norman later managed to release his feet and was able to make his -way for about a half mile to the -main road where he was found by E. L. Martin, who operates the Long Island mills truck. Mr. Martin un tied the man's hand, took him to a nearby house and notified Sheriff Alexander who with the county phy sician Dr. McElwee, hurried to the -place 'and brought the wounded man to Statesville for medical treatment. Officers got busy at once on the trail of the robbers, who were seen passing through Lenoir this after Moon about 4 o'clock. Rub-My-Tism is a powerful antis eptic.

There is some misunderstanding in regard to the game between Rich mond and Wilson played on June j'.i3th. that was protested by. the Wilson management. The game was the second of the double header and was called at the end of the seventh inning. Ryan the Richmond man ager instructed the umpire to call the game at seven innings, seeming ly overlooking the fact that the rules demand that the manager of the opposing team be consulted be fore a game can be shortened. Man ager Clarke and the Wilson players were unaware of the fact that the game was to go only seveninnings un til after the sixth inning and that it was too late to make a kick. Upon these grounds the game was pro tested. At a meeting of the Virginia League directors in Norfolk last Thursday night the matter was dis cussed at length, and the game was ordered to be played out on the next trip that Wilsonmakes to Richmond. Due to a complication of things un necessary to mention the game will not be thrown out of the records and played over from the beginning; it will be finished from the seventh in ning the score and conditions of play ing being resumed as nearly as pos sible just where the game ended on June 18th. Due to the fact that Wilson does not make a trip to Richmond until September 8th, the winner of the first Half of the Virginia League will not be known until then. Rocky Mount and Wilson at present are tied for first place, but the protested game is held in abeyance not count ing either way until it is finished. If Wilson loses at that time then clear ly Rocky Mount wins the first half; on the other hand if Wilson wins the Bugs will be the possessors of the bunting.

Norfolk, Va., June 30. At the meeting of the Virginia League di rectors, a heated forensic affair that lasted until within a few minutes of midnight, the decision of president W. B. Bradley, dismissing the appeal of Wilson, protesting the game with Richmond, on June 18, which was played only through the seventh in ning, was reversed, the dircetors hold ing that the league rules had been violated. They ordered, that in the vent the game would make- any difference in the standing, that the two remain ing innings be played, completing the game and the result transferred to the first half record. The game is to be completed the next time the Wil son club visits Richmond, which will not be until September 8. It was also decreed that if it would make any difference in the final percentage for the first half rag that Richmond also be required to play a postponed game with Ports mouth ,they refused to stage by play ing a double-header the last time the two clubs met. Taking up the question of salary limits, Rocky Mount and Wilson were openly charged with dodging the sal ary Mmit of the league, by giving of bonuses etc. Mr. Home, of Rocky Mount practicaly admitted that the players were probably being paid bonuses. The Wilson representative was silent. After hours of discussion the met ing adjourns without any action, the Portsmouth and Norfolk moguls how ever, giving warning that they had lived up to the salary limit during the first half, but wouldn't make any promises for the second half, Peters burg admitted that at the pace set in 'salaries that its town was in danger of being forced out of the league.

The Mexican government has opened here its first permanent agricultural ex hibit in the United States.

The exhibit was designed to ap peal to the prospective investor in Mexico.

"Mexico Is once more on her feet Peace has been attained, Today we are working hard to make up for the ADMINISTRATION ACCEPTED BORAH ON DISARMAMENT summoning a conference of all the powers nor does it inhibit Mr. Hard ing from including land armament as well. The President has the right to nsgotiate with foreign powers about any subject under the sun and no matter what agreement he negotiated Congress would have the final say as to the stoppage of appropriations for naval or military armament. The Administration forces have not relished the idea of being led by Sen ator Borah. In the past all Import ant policies sanctioned by an Admin istration have been initiated by the spokesmen of the Administration in the House or Senate. In htis case Sen ator Lodge took little part in the proceedings. Republican leader Mon- dell's efforts to broaden the resolu tion were abandoned. It was decided to yield to Mr. Borah Explanations given today vary Some said the desire of the Executive was to get Congress busy on much more vital matters of business than a mere expression of opinion which after all is what the Borah resolu te does. It doesn't accomplish dis armament. It requests the President to confer with other powers and dis cuss the matter. It's always a long way from discussion to achievement in foreign affairs. Nevertheless the forcing of the Ad ministration's hand on a problem so big in the public mind as disarm ament has not passed without signi ficant comment on all sides to the effect that Republican leadership in Congress is not making the most of Republican opportunities. The chance 10 grasp lliw Uiaaiiuaiucub q"1""11"" 1 and make it an administration policy , from the start was politically an ex cellent one. Members of the House recognized it by their refusal to side track the Borah measure for any new proposition that might mean a delay in getting a vote. From all sides President Harding has been urged from the very beginning of his Administration to assume the leadership in disarmament through nut the world. It has been pointed lout that his opportunities to rid the European countries of the heaviest part of their tax burdens have been greater than that vouchafed any American president. The question has indeed been brought closer home by the announcement of Secretary Mel lon that the European countries owe the United States more than a billion dollars in interest since the war. The ability of Europe to pay that in terest depends upon the amounts needed tor domestic appropriations on armies, and navies. If America could hare received a billion dollars in interest, income taxes would have been correspondingly decreased in the United States because there would have been just a billion dol lars less to raise from American tax payers. The overwhelming votes for the Borah resolution in both the Senate and the House are not alto gether the expression of a new senti mentalism about armament and the prevention of wars. The votes are really the expressed apprehension of members of Congress that they will not be reelected unless they at least make gestures in the direction of dis armament and government economy. The subject now is transferred to the White House. The President has been canvassing the other 1 powers through the Supreme Council on which Ambassador Harvey, great friend of Senator Borah, is the Amer ican representative. But the Borah resolution will make necessary some thing more than informal feelers. The Idaho Senator is not . the kind who will allow his resolution to be passed and pigeon-holed.

Presiden Has Right to Negotiate With Foreign Powers. (By David Lawrence). (Copyright 1921 by Daily Times.) Washington, June 30. Senator Borah of Idaho, champion of disarm ment, stands out today as victor in the first contest with the Harding Administration. Reluctant for reason never divulged, the Administration at first frowned upon Mr. Borah's ef forts to push the disarmament quest ion to the front, then conceded the point and passed the word to Re publican Senators that no objection was entertained to their support of the measure and finally made an ei- fort through Republican leader Mon- dell of the House to get a broad resolution passed which would cover military as well as naval disarm ament. That last proposal of the Ad ministration was finally abandoned in the House and the Borah resolu tion came through with flying colors, The reasons that lie back of the Administration's change of policy have not been on the surface at all and several Republicans who watch' ed the rising side of disarmament sentiment in the country have insist ed that whatever the form which the disarmament proposals may take the House could not afford to get into a tangle on the question by voting down the Borah idea of a three power conference Great Britain, Japan and the United States.
