S. C. Get* $3 Price
For Auto Licenses
COLUMBIA, 8. C., May 6.—Thr
house passed one of Governor
Johnson's own new deal bills last
week, after having ditched some
others last week.
It passed to the senate the $3.00
automobile license plate bill which
platform of the governor, and Is
one plank In the inaugural that he
talked about a good deal during his
campaign.
But really it is not important In
the continuing conflict of the leg
islature bosses and the new gover
nor, for the governor, while per
sistent. has never been rampant
about it in his talks about legisla
tion he wants enacted at this ses
sion.
The argument for the bill stress
ed that it is a measure to help the
poverty stricken owner of an auto
mobile, because by the time he pays
for gasoline and repairs and oil, he
has not much left to buy a license
plate, if he gets enough rations to
keep him alive, while motoring.
Drag Lake Hickory
For Body Of Youth
HICKORY, May 6.-A group of
men under Sheriff Barrs of Ca
tawba county continued during the

or fell from the bridge over an arm
of the lake into 30 feet of water.
Hawn, the son of Mr. and Mrs.
George Hawn of Hickory’, went to
the lake about three miles from
Hickory on the Lenoir road In a
taxicab, telling the driver. Red Heff
ner, to drive across the bridge, wait
a few minutes and then return.
Heffner told officers last night that
he followed instructions and that
as he returned he saw Hawn sitting
on the railing of the bridge. That
as he approached Hawn went into
the water.

Rome Condemns LJ. S.
False Lint Packing
ROME, May 6.—W. M. Wiggins,
president of the British Federatio.i
of Master Cotton Spinners’ asso
ciations, declared Thursday at the
open meeting of the World Cotton
congress that European spinners
will cease buying American cotton
unless the false packing of bales is
discontinued. y
False packing constitutes the
packing of cotton inferior to that
listed for shipment.
"We don’t want to do that,” said
Wiggins, who praised the efforts of
the United States department rf
agriculture to eliminate false pack
ing evils through the use of metal
markers for bales. He said, the
congress would furnish additional
suggestions.
"The International Federation,
he said, "has been collecting infor
mation from its various depart
ments for some time, showing that
no material progress has been made
toward the elimination of the civil
of false packing, despite repeated
protests and the requests to the
United States government depart
ments to take steps.’’
The depressing effect of Japan
ese competition hung heavily over
the meeting, Oingo Olivetti, of Italy,
president of the congress, called at
tention to Japan's increase of 147
percent in cotton goods production
during 1931 and a 22 per cent in
crease for the first half of 1934.
Wiggins and other speakers em
phasized that higher tariffs and
quotas have not been effective in
stopping this competition.
