Plays April Fool Joke On Self
But Plays A Ball Game Anyway
BOH.XNO SPRINGS, April 2.—
Ooaoh Cddlo Lawhon, local high
. school monitor, played an April fool
on himself . and twenty or more
bogs Monday afternoon. It was the
fault of Sddle’o baseball schedule
that he trucked his ball players
down to Waoo to meet the Waoo
nine on home soil .when the Waco
coach was preparing to eome here
to play the game Tuesday after
i noon.
v Coach Bddie looked around the
f empty school house at Waco,
squinted at the field and said he
-goessed the April Rod was on him
fc'nd the boy*. It «u. The two
teams met here Tuesday afternoon.
Equal to almost any twist of for
tune or fate, Coach Eddie played a
game of ball on the Waco field,
even though there wasn't a Waco
player nigh. He divided his own
men up, hurled for one side him
self, and the battle was on. By and
by. some Waco fans came down to
see the game, and Mister Lawhon
didn’t charge ’em a cent to see him
pitch. Partly humored and satis
fied, the local baseball lads got
track on the truck and made
whoopee on the way back home.

Absentee Ballot
Act Is Repealed
In Mecklenburg
RALBIGH, March 81.—The Meck
lenburg bill to repeal the absentee
ballot law in the county was started
on the way toward enactment Fri
day when It was passed by the
house of representatives after hav
ing been on the dally calendar since
March 14.
Drawn as a state-wide measure
applicable to Mecklenburg alone, the
bill was sponsored In the house by
the entire delegation from Mecklen
burg. It probably will reach the
senate tomorrow but In all probabil
ity will be referred to a committee
rather then be passed under sus
pension Of rules. Since it repeals the
effect of a state-wide act It Is doubt
ful whether the senate ean act on
It In a session which pursuant to
the order of adjournment today, will
be devoted to passage of local bills
alone.

Processing Tax
May Be Increased
Says H. A. Wallace
WASHINGTON, Mar. M—Reac
tion to the National Industrial Re
covery board's order permitting a
>5 per cent ourtallment of textile
mill operations came from a num
ber of fronts in Washington and
there were a number of develop
ments of major importance to the
entire industry:
They were:
1. Secretary of Agriculture Wal
lace struck back at spokesmen for
[textile interests who are contending
that the high price of cotton and
processing taxes is playing havoc
with the lnduetry. He said when
cotton was five cents a pound the
industry was not prosperous. He
reiterated there would be no change
In the processing tax and if cotton
prices stay as low as they are it
will be Increased instead of de
creased or repealed. He expressed
opposition to making direct pay
ments to fanners out of the treat
ury as permitted in the George
amendment to the work relief hill.
3. Delighted over aotlon of NRA
in approving their request for a 35
per cent curtailment, textile man
ufacturere here for the code meet
ings the early part of last week got
Into action on Capitol Hill in sup
port of George amendment permit
ting the president to use part of
$4,850,000,000 work relief fund for
benefit payments to farmers and
thereby eliminating need for the
processing tax. Manufacturers also
voiced objections to the Black 10
hour week, Wagner labor disputes
bill and other labor legislation.
3. Threats of another textile
strike came from labor circles Just
as they did In June last year when
the NRA approved a similar 35 per
cent curtailment order in textile
operations. It was this order which
precipitated the September strike
Thomas F. McMahon, president of
the United Textile Workers, de
nounced the NRA order as a 35 per
cent cut In pay for textile workers
and an “outrage.”
«. George Sloan, chairman of tha
ootton textile oode authority, la
sued a statement in which he said
the NRA curtailment order would
have a wholeeome effect on the in
dustry and there would be no gen
eral reduction of the hours in the
Industry, the order being applied
"only where seasonal conditions or
subnormal market demand In par
ticular branches of the industry
make it impossible to oontinue to
operate at present on a full sche
dule.
