PLAN TO SUBMIT
A NEW PLAN TO
COTTON FARMER
Assure Parity Price
Would Limit Acreage to 25
Millions Next Year and
Washington, Aug. 24—The approv
al of Secretary Wallace and Presi
dent Roosevelt was virtually all that
was iieie>-sar-y today to put before the
growers for acceptance a new cotton
plan to limit acreage to 25,000,000
next yea"
One of its important features
would assure a parity of price to
the cotton farmer on about half his
average production during the last
five years. It is to be put into, ef
fect under a modification of the do
mestic allotment plan
The parity price for cotton is the
figure at which it must sell to have
the purchasing power it had from
to 1914. Present farm prices
are about five cents below parity.
Some deails of the long-time pro
gram for the staple upon whkh
the agricultural South depends re
main to be worked out, but officials
expect it.-, principles to stand The
plan is to he announced September
1, or shortly thereafter.
As in this year's emergency re
duction campaign, which took more
than 10,000,000 acres out of produc
tion, the farmer would receive cash
rentals on the land he turned to
other purposes or let remain idle.
The cash payments would be based
on the average rental value of the
acres, but probably would not be the
full figure, since lie could use the
land to grow food or pasture 'crops,
A suggestion that the payments
range from $3 to sll an acre is un
der consideration.

millions of dollars is believed to have
resulted to the crops. Cotton was
blown and twisted so badly that its
roots will not Jevelop the btolls.
Young corn was leveled. Peanuts
hhve suffered during the past few
day*, the main development period for
the goober. As a result the crop will
be from 10 to 20 per cent shorter titan
estimates indicated two or three
weeks ago.
Pecan and all kinds of fruit trees
were left almost bare. Even small
acorns were tw'sted from the mighty
oalcs by the millions.
Twenty-five trees fell in the town
here, damaging one or two homes,
tearing up a portion of sidewalk in
New Town and breaking a telephone
cable. The packhouse of Farmer Joe
Cherry was blown down, and a porch
was torn from a home on West Main
Street. Many panes were blown from
windows.
The storm is said to be the worst
experienced in this section since 1913.
It was said to be the worst ever re
•onleil at Virginia Beach and other
joints.

calculation in such wide-spread de
vastation, mounted into many mil
lions of dollars.
While the sun peeped through
storm-blackened skies sporadically
yesterday, many localities were still
in distress from the gale and deluge
that battered the Atlantic seaboard.
NEGRO IS BADLY
HURT IN FIGHT
WITH WHITE MAN
Struck Over Head By Piece
Of Scantling, Probably
Fatally Injured
A negro named Gaynor, living in
the Gold Point section, was seriously
and probably fatally hurt last Sun
day morning when he attempted to
assault Alonzo Grimes, white man,
there. Gaynor was struck on the
side of the head with a piece of two
by four timber in the hands of Grimes
and suffered 4" fractured skull. The
man was carried to Robersonville,
where his . condition was considered
grave by doctors.
" According to information received
here, Gaynor went into a colored
church in Gold Point and interrupt'
ed the sexton, who was calling the
church (lock to services.. A row be
tween the two followed, and Grimes,
passing near the church at the time,
is said to have remonstrated with
Gaynor. Resenting the good advice
offered by Grimes, Gaynor ended the
row with the sexton aud turned on
Grimes with a piece of scantling.
Grimes moved away, but Gaynor fol
lowed him. After evading Gaynor for
some distance, Grimes picked up a
piece of two by four timber and warn
ed the man to stop, adding that he.
was not going to run further. Gay
nor failed to heed the warning, and
when he advanced, Griaies applied
the timber and euded the disturbance
with a -«rwift blow to Gaynor'i head,
causing blood to flow from the man's
ears and nose.
it was reported that there was evi
dence of liquor, but this report could
not be verified. Very little direct in
formation could be had in connection
with the affair, witnesses having been
declared unwilling to discuss the trou
ble. •
Small Merchants Can
Obtain Blue Eagle
Some question has arisen in regard
| to the status of the small county mer
chant. In a bulletin sent to Mrs. W,
C. Brewer from Hoy M. Brown, tech
nical supervisor of relief, he says that
a merchant in the country who owns
his own business and employs no
clerks has no restriction on his hours,
and he may secure a blue eagle by
applying to his postmaster.
The county welfare agency is also
instructed to stamp all orders for re
lief "good only at stores showing the
N. K. A. blue eagle in their places of
business."

tin County. During the laft ten years
the association has made loans amount
ing to more than $150,000 on homes,
and on improved property purchased
by its stockholders. At this time, it
has more than $25,000 loaned on its
own stock, and during the 10-year
period referred to above, it has ma
tured and paid out on stock nearly
$300,000. During this time more than
50 houses have been buflt by the
organization, besides aiding stock
holders in purchasing improved prop
erly. During this same period, the
association built 85 per cent of the
new buildings in the town of Wil
liamston.
At no time during the existence of
the association has it failed to pay the
stockholders 6 per cent net on their
investment. And up to this date it
I.as not taken advantage of the time
notice clause, as is allowed by the
by-laws, and has not required its
stockholders, who wanted to withdraw
their stock or who wanted to make
luans on their stock, to wait, but it has
paid them on demand, and made stock
loans upon application. No stock
holder has lost one cent that has
been invested in this Association.
The Martin County Building and
Loah Association is one of the best
assets of the community, and has
been of more substantial assistance
in helping to build up the town of
Williamston than any other one insti
tution.
SPURIOUS BILL
IS PASSED OFF
ON MERCHANT
$lO Note Is Found To Be
Counterfeit; Others May
Be in Circulation
Robersonville, N. C., August 24.
In the course of business last Sat
urday, Mr. Silas House, local mer
chant, received a counterfeit $lO bill,
but the worthless bill went unnoticed
until Monday morning, when the mer
chant realized he was $lO poorer than
he was tlx Saturday before.
Recalling the transactions of the
day, Mr. House remembered he re
ceived the bill from George Andrews,
a colored man. It is believed that
Andrews was the victim of another,
and that he did not intentionally pass
the bogus bill oil to Mr. House. >
The face of the bill was nearly a
perfect reproduction of Uncle Sam's
bona fide bills, but the back was not
so perfect. However, the bill could
