Exciting Western.

The other children's project re
cently inaugurated by the council

child.

County History Is
Given By Gardner
Attorney P. Cleveland Gardner,
perhaps the best authority on'
Cleveland county history, was the
speaker lgst night before the Ki

Mr. Gardner told how Cleveland
has descended from about nine
North Carolina Counties and got
its present charter in 1841. He re
counted the historical spots of the
county, especially trails and roads
over which British and Colonial
troops marched while our inde
pendence was at stake. He suggest
ed that monuments be erected at
the points of most historical inter
est and that the names of the com
panies that served in our more irr

bronze tablet in the court square.

"CWA Jobs Are Safe.’*
That slogan went up this week,
ilong with the large signs being

Robert C. Hord to make that slo
gan true. Mr. Hord this week ap

can Red Cross.
The first meeting will be held atj

ichool. The school will continue for
’ive days, at no cost to the pupils
The men designated to take ' this
• ussr fr ri the more than 800 now
corking on Cleveland projects, are
either foremen, timekeepers or;
workers who, because of their edu
cation, are capable of absorbing the
instruction and transmitting It to
their fellows.
The cooperation of the American
rted Cross has been secured in the
task of placing properly trained
first aid men on every project in
North Carolina. This graining is not j
for the purpote of attempting to
train laymen to take the place f

New Reduction Program IumM
To Be Certainty By Feb. let.
Cobb Praises Farmer*. ’
Prospects for the success at Mm
'cotton reduction plan were brighter
j today as reports from various sec
I lions of the country indicated that
[farmers were cooperating whole
iheartedly in the program,
1 Cleveland County Farm Agent R.
jw. Shoffner's office was filled all
day long by farmers who were anx
ious to sign the required forms in
order to benefit by the greater
prices for cotton that is assured if
the plan succeeds by the end of this
month. Cleveland county is sup
porting the movement almost 100
percent.
Farmers Willing
Reports from other sections of the
south tell the same story—that of
fanners showing willingness to aid
the recovery program as well as
themselves by agreeing to reduce
their crop and rent the uncultivat
ed land to the government for a
premium.
In Washington yesterday, aouth
rn farmers received a pat on the
back from the farm administration
for their cooperation in the cotton
md tobacco acreage reduction cam
’tgns.
Cully A. Cobb, chief of the cotton
.section, said sufficient progress was
c ng made to Justify the adminis
•ra. ion’s hope that the cotton slgn
cti.i be completed by February
1, but expressed disappointment
,t: the campaign in some Texas
■auntie*.
Texas 1* Slow
"Some counties in Texas are not
■ going as rapidly as we had hoped,”
Cobb said, “but the workers there
believe that the coming week will
ec an acceleration In the cam
paign.”
Enough contracts must be signed
b> January 31 to make it possible,
under the terms of the agreement,
for Secretary of Agriculture Wal
lace to determine whether the pro
ram is to be made effective.
The tobacco sign-up in North
Carolina reached about 96 percent
of the growers, a sufficient amount
to warrant the schedule to go
through as planned. It is believed
, hat the cotton growers of this and
other sections will show the same
pint that, the tobacco growers
showed, and sign up in sufficient
number to make the plan a success.

Washington Jan. 38.—After a con

Beams Mill Thieves Filch Meat,
Sheriff Recovers It, Still Fresh
Acting swiftly on reports that
meat had been stolen from two
houses In the Beams Mill section
this week Sheriff Cline and his
deputies picked up the trail of the
thieves yesterday .traced tt for more
than two miles, recovered the meat
and made two arrests tor aiding
and abetting and for receiving stol
en property.
The first report came from Clar
ence Costner, who discovered that
his meat house had been entered
on Tuesday. He lost a forty-pouhd
ham. Deputy Bob Kendrick investi
gated but failed to recover the
meat that day. Oi Wednesday
morning the secon< report came
fror- Yatc" Costnei ot c oi Beams
Mill, who lost two sides of meat.
This time ,thc trail -was clearer
*
and following it lor tome miles,
Sheriff Cline and his deputies al
though falling to find the meat im
mediately did get enough informa
tion to satisfy them where It might
be hidden. Thursday night Cline
and Kendrick searched the Cole
man McSwain Ledford home find
ing there a larder piled high
enough to withstand a seige. Not
only did they recover the ham and
the meat but two pieces of side
meat, quantities of groceries, snuff,
gloves and hose. The meat was re
turned to the owners and the gro
ceries are in the Sheriff’s office for

City Leaders Meet To

Hnej. Mid, Nchrnrk. I.inebergrr
And fall* Will Report On PWA
Powrihllitlra.
A Mack inn tile problem from all
angles, more khan fifty of Shelby’s
leading business men and manu
facturers held a thorough discus
sion of the possibilities of erecting
a new high school building here
and appointed a fact-finding com
mittee to investigate the financial
angle In more detail. The meeting
was held at the Hotel Charles last
night under the chairmanship ol
Capt. B. L. Smith, superintendent
of schools.
The committee appointed is com
posed of Clyde R. Hoey, O. M. Mull
John Bchenck, J. D. Llnebergar sin
B. T. Falls. ,
To Report On PWA.
They will report specifically or
tlie feasibility of building tht
school through Publlo Works Ad
ministration funds, from which, It
is believed, a grant of 30 percent for
materials can be obtained, and
which will allow the issuance of
long-term bonds at the low figure
of 4 per cent. The prime question
is whether it would or would not tor
cheaper to erect the school through
(he PWA and possibly with the aid
of the CWA in laying the ground
work.
Captain Smith opened,the meet
ing with a short address on the
growth of the Shelby schools, ir
1915-lfl, he said, the total registra
tion was 684 and last year It hat
grown to 3,678, an Increase of 53'
percent. During the past four year.*
there was a 30 percent increase
Absorbed By County.
But the Increase would Imve btm
greater, he said, had It not been fm
the rapid growth of the count!
schools recently. Now, the city ii
faced with an overflow from th«
grammar grades, so that the pres
ent high school building could sows
be pressed Into service to care foi
them if a new one were erected
This building was erected 37 years
ago. he declared, and is obsolete
An architect has been engaged u
make preliminary drawings tnc
estimates on the basis of a school
to cost $200,000. He exhibited plar.i
for this building, which included s
library, large auditorium, sclenr.4
laboratories and commercial de
partment.
tiilfl AAA
J. D. Lineberger, president of ttu
Chamber of Commerce, which ha>
interested itaelf unofficially in th»
project; said that if the plan wer#
pushed forward now, the city could
avail itself of the 30 percent grout
for materials from the PWA, which
would, on a $200,000 building, meai:
a saving of $60,000. He urged actiqr
now. so as to take advantage of fV«
low bond rate of 4 percent which
may be obtained through the gov
eminent. Ordinarily, bonds canm^
be financed for less than 9 percent
which comes to a large sum over a
period of years.
In a speech of typical eloquence
and force, Clyde R. Hoey declared
that only the finances had delayed
the building for these several years.
He appealed to local pride by cit
ing the fine buildings of neighbor
ing cities, some of them much
smaller than Shelby, and told how
years ago, a $29,000 school buildln"
was built here through! the ag
gressiveness of a group of men *hr
gave their personal notes for U.e
venture and let the people vote
whether to back them up later, fie
urged action now so as to take ad
vantage of the low bond interest
obtainable.
Election Necessary.
D. 2. Newton city attorney in re
ply to a question, stated that it would
be necessary to submit the bond
issue to a vote of the people. Coun
ty Attorney Peyton Mc8wain anc
Mr. Hoey concurred in thus '‘>ra
opinion.
John Schenck and O. M. Mini
both prominent manufacturers with
wide experience in building. w.i
they were willing to support
venture If, as Mr. Mull express® r ii
"the government gives us a goes
trade.” Otherwise, they said It
might be better to wait several
years and do the Wring without gov
ernment aid or Interference
Pay NBA Wages.
Dr. J. S. Dorton secretary oi riu
Cleveland County Pair Association
urged immediate action on the
plan and suggested the appointment
of a committee. He said that
whether the work was done private
ly or under PWA, the wages would
be paid according to NRA scale.
