UNPATRIOTIC TO
CASH IN STAMPS
Practice General in Some Local
•tiea. - U Lake StobUn|
Uncle Sem in Beck,
Bete Ingratitude
Winston-Salem. Dec. 22.—flute
War Saving* Headquarter* haa bats
informed that In not a faw localities
tn the State people arc cashing in
their War Savings Stamps. Accord
ing to the Information that has reach
ad Headquarters, this is being done,
first, through a misapprehension as
lo the dale of the maturity of ths
Stamps, second, fur tho purpose of
spending the money for Christmas
and, third, because certain salesmen
arc inducing owners of Stamps to
cash in their Stamps to get money to
buy whatever they are offering for
■ale.
State Headquarter* has ths follow
ing to say concerning the cmH*|
in War Savings Stamps before the
date of their maturity which is Jan
uary 1923:
"To cash in a War Savings Stamps
before the date of their maluurity,
uni re* there It absolute necessity,
that brought about by misfortune or
the utraoct emergency, is disloyalty of
tho rankest sort. The person or agent
who induces such a practice is an
enemy to his country and commits a
baas, unpatriotic set. Persons cash
lug in their Stamps now without nec
essity not only work a hardship on
the Government and defeat the pur
pose of the War Savings Campaign,
but they break faith with their Gov
ernment and brand themselves as un
patriotic citisana Whan they bought
ths Stamps they agreed to let Uncle
Sem have the use of their money
for five year*. Xow that ha haa spent
it in winning the greatest victory
the world has ever known they arc
asking their money back four year*
before It is due. It is like striking
him in the back ip the dark. It is
ingratitude ef the basest sort.
"Every War Saving* Stamp —«-tt1
now represents a lorn of aerenty
seven cent*. In other words, War
Savings Stamps this month are worth
only $4.23, wharaaa tn four year*
from now, or in 1923, they will be
worth $6.60.”

Paris, Dec. IB.—Marshal Joffre is
now formally numbered among
France's 40 Immortals Hxe victor
of the Marne waa mado a mem bar of
the French academy this afternoon.
Promptly upon the stroke of 1
Marahal Joffre arrived at the institute,
crossing the Seine over the Pont Dea
Art*, accompanied by his sponsor,
briel Hanotaax, end hie aide-de-camp.
Commandant Jouart.
With the knowledge that President
Wilson was to attend tha function
acting as an added attraction, groat
crowds had gathered all along tha
roots followed by the marshal—
crowds whose cheers were divided be
tween the great soldier, tec chief fig
ure of the event; the American Pram
dent, and President Poincare, of
France. The French president at
tended merely ae a private eltUea and
fellow academician.
Marshal Joffre wore tea undress
uniform of a marahal of Franca. Ha
delivered hia inaugural speech in a
deep, resonant voice. After review
ing the part played in the war by
Prance, Belgium an dthe other ellloa,
he said:
"However, to much heroism and
resolution would not have sufficed
had not tha alliad peoples taken part
aw m conviction
tkftt Uioy w%ro fighting for light that
the allied nations found tho strength
to sacrifice Tho power of these no
ble sentiment* have been evoked in
, terms which ore ever present by tbe
•rent President Wilson.”
I Alluding to kin visit to the United
Stoics In 1017, Marshal ioffrc sold:
“While in the midst of the Ameri
can crowds I was living boars which
II number among the sweetest in life.
| In erder that Prance might live la
prosperity, that Belgium might ro-es
tablish herself, that liberty might
reign and that right might he rela
stated, America arose and resolved
to throw into the fight her last man
and her last dollar. History does not
record a more marvelous achieve
ment tfean that of millions of men
voluntarily breaking away from their
peaceful pursuits to cross the sees,
when death lurked, to giro their

Raleigh, Dec. 20—Governor RLck
ett today pardoned Jim Wilcox, serv
ing 30 ycara for Dm murder of MtU

former electrician at the stale prison

than any pri toner who has served,
and he ends it with the Asset record
ever made, la 13 yean be has not
won a black mark.
Governor Bickett has not aanonne
ed his reasons beyond those, bat he
evidently Is moved by the tender ap
peal ef Wilcox for mercy. Be had
previously declined the prisoner's re
quest, ae had Governor Craig. This
weak Wilcox writes a letter declaring
hie satire innocence and ignecaace
of the Cropaey murder, and confess
ing the strength of circometance
against him, bags for mercy, as hia
health and spirit have failed.
Incidentally, Wilcox makee kit 8ret
statement. Be sever Had denied or
confessed It. That alone has stood
in the way of hia pardon. Coventor
Craig had gathered the opinion that
he was erually indifferent, the teati
mony had shown that after the Crop
•ey-Wilrox quarrel sad the girl failed
to return homo, Wilcox when asked
by the distraught father of Mist Crop
icy if he knew where she was and
where ho last saw her. declared he
left her at a certain place, then
"turned over sod went to sleep."
On the Arat trial la Pasquotank,
Wilcox was convicted of murder in
utniBc uu acniincra u> m
hanged. The mob spirit was ao all
pervsaivc that k brake out la cheers
and Wilcox got a new trial. Tried
in on adjoining county he was found
guilty of murder in the second de
gree and given the limit. Judge C
w. Ward prosecuted him and Judge
W. M. Bend and E. F. Aydlctt defend
ed.
Wiles, Pleads for Moray.
Wilcox, in writing Ooreraer Bick
stt, says: ‘Tor 1* yean 1 have been
