COTTON DEMANDED ay THESE WOMEN i Council Of Farm Women Agree To Demand Feeds In Cot ion Sacks, Rock Hill, S. C—Declaring that i the people of the South should use | cotton products whenever andj wherever they can be used to1 economic advantage, the York j county council of farm women at j t a meeting held here unanimously i passed resolutions requesting the ■ housewives of York county and of the entire South to demand that their flour, sugar and feeds shall i come in cotton sacks and that they ! refuse to accept same in any other : container. * The grocers of York county and \ of the entire South are requested , in the resolutions to lend their full' support to the movement. The1 numbers of the council are plan- 1 ning an exhibit of useful articles made from cotton sacks at their next meeting. The resolutions adopted by the council as made public by Miss Lena Sturgis, the secretary, fol low : N “The prosperity of the South is largely determined by the price; secured each year for its cotton. Tire price secured depends very largely upon the demand for cot ton products. It is, therefore, we feel; encumbent upon all in the South to use cotton products when ever and wherever they can be used to economic advantage. It is our belief that it is certainly to the economic advantage of the housewives of the South to pur chase their flour, sugar and feeds * in cotton sacks, because of the many very valuable uses to which these sacks can be put after they are emptied. In addition, we are helping create a market for our own product when we buy our flour, etc., in them.” t Therefore, Ee It Resolved, that we request the housewives of York county and of the entire South to demand that their flour, sugar and feeds shall come in cotton sacks and that they refuse to accept same in any .other container." “Be It Further Resolved, that we request the grocers of York county and the entire South to lend their full support to this movement."

DAVIS Securities Company Starts At Asheville lias Authorized Capital Of Three And A Half Million':—Affiliated With Central Bank. (Special to The Star.) Asheville—Plans of the new Cen tral Securities company of Ashe ville, Inc., which were announced here th.3 week, disclose the fact that this new finance -and holding company promises to be a most im portant force in the further in dustrial and commercial develop ment of all Western North Caro lina. The Central Securities company, with an authorized capital of $3, 500,000, s tarts business as" one of the largest finance 'companies in the Southern states. It was organ ized by Wallace B. Davis and as sociates, and is affiliated w-ith the Central Bank and Trust company of Asheville. Up to Saturday night, over $703 030 of the company's cap ital steel; had been subscribed, largely by present stock-holders of the Central Bank. Public sale of Central Securities 7 per cent ^jrfnu lative preferred stock and common "B'’ stock was begun this week. Central Securities company plans principally to purchase Western North Carolina industrial and mun icipal bonds, and a limiljpd amount of stock in banks, lnsifrance and surety companies. Many forms of cooperation will be extended to present banks and financed or pur chased by the company; neither will real estate bond issues be ori ginated, although real estate mort gage bonds may eventually be han dled as wholesale selling agent when guaranteed by responsible surety companies. An intensive marketing campaign for securities which will be handled by the com pany is soon to be instituted in the middlewest, where branch offices will eventually be opened. Wallace B. Davis, who is presi dent of the Central Bank jyid Trust company as well as the affiliated Central Securities company, stated that the new company was primari ly designed to further the basic commerce and industries of this section. “We expect to provide a financial service large enough, and broadly useful enough to claim a vital part in the progress of all Western North Carolina,” said Mr. Davis. “Wc are highly optimistic of the success of the new company It shall be my purpose, and the purpose of my associates, to devote our bes: talent and effort to its management to the end that we may equal the remarkable success that has been achieved by other companies similar to ours. An in vestigation of the earnings of such companies as the Bancitaly com pany. the National City company, the Citizens and Southern com pany and the Hibernia Securities company has established the fact that their, earnings represent a larger return on capital than do the earnings cf the banks control ling them.” N. V. FARMERS UNDER NEWSPAPER AVERAGE Washington.—Less than half of the 5.032 farmers in North Caro lina replying to a questionnaire of the National Fertilizer association were readers of daily newspapers, according to a summary given out. The percentage for the nation was 69 per cent while it was only 49 p<jr cent in North Carolina. Ninety per cent of the farmers interviewed in Michigan and Ohio read newspapers, but the total for the two states was less than for North Carolina. More replies' were received from North Carolina than any other state. The percentage of farmers inter viewed reading weekly newspapers in North Carolina ^as 46 per cent. I Is This True Here?

New York.—The Russel Sage foundation reported that a study of marriage law administration in 30 states has revealed the exist ence o^ 57 “mbrriage market towns" in 39 states. The report states that these towns constitute the most conspic uous, though not the most serious, result of "the general neglect of ma--'age laws in this country,” ^The communities styled mar rirge market towns are these that have more than twice as large a ni. .: ige rate as th it ot their state, or which draw more than half their marriage candidates from outside license districts. "We are so little Inclined to ad vertise these places,” says the foundation "that we are suppress ing their names throughout this report. ‘ Kept Out Of Papers. In one marriage market town the report says that social work ers were told by the Justice of the peace th t his regular fee was $3 out lf„the principals wanted their marriage kept out of the papers he charged $3 extra. In this town runners for the Jus tices were found who went so far ui soliciting business as to board moving automobiles If they thought the occupants looked as though they might get married If properly approached. | In another town two Justices of the peace advertised in street cars running 1 om a nearby city, dis playing cai cards reading ••sweet heart; be ready at 4 o'clock we ll go to for lust p short riue, and justices a'd -will tie ihe knot.’’ Ministers Profiin*.
