“Richmond Is - Preparing To Greet Wearers , Of The Gray Next Month| Richmond, Va., April 26—At this time next month the old capital of the Confederacy will be alive with Confederate veterans, sons of Con- federate veterans, daughters of the associations from all The occasion will be the silyer jubilee or twenty- fifth annual reunion of the United Confederate Veterons, together with the annual meetings of numerous af- | Confederacy, memorial and distinguished guests parts of the country. filiated organizations. Realizing that, by the very force of nature, they will probably never again have the opportunity to enter- tain the soldiers of the “lost cause,” the citizens of Richmond, around which city they fought for so many yvears, are bending every energy to make the approaching reunion an event long to be remembered. The dates named for the annual gathering are June 1 2 and 3, and every preparation is beinz made looking to the comfort and pleasure of the thousands of visitors who will be here on those days. Food in abundance and healthful lodgings are gratuitously awaiting the old soldiers. Varied amusements will be provided and the general executive committee, having in charge all ar- rangements, announce that no ex- tortionate fees will be extended from visitors by hotels and boarding houses. President Wilson has signified his intention to be present on one day of the reunion if his official duties will permit. Invitations likewise have been accepted by the governors of fifteen States of the South. Other guests of the reunion will be the widows of famous Confederate lead- ers, Mrs. J. E. B. Stuart, Mrs. Geo. Pickett, Mrs. Fitzhugh Lee, Mrs. A. P Hill and Mrs. W. H. F. Lee. Three notable events will be in- cluded in the reunion program, in addition to the memorial exercises, business sessions, parade and other features which custom has prescrib- ed for the annual national gather- ings of the veterans. These three events will be the unveiling of a tablet in Hollywood Cemetery to the women of the Confederacy, the open- ing to the public of the Confederate Memorial Institute, or Battle Abbey, and the laying of the cornerstone of the Stonewall Jackson monument. It 18 also expected that a brass cannon Wwill be unveiled on Monument Ave- nue, marking the location of inner fortification of Richmond. Each of these events will be made the occasion of interesting exercises. | ficient, founded on the principle of fih" The main ghakite of the cules Con- federate batteries which formed the Report Presented To President Gn Practices of Machin- ‘ery Manufacturers Washington, April 26—Some of the practices of nation-wide associa- tions of manufacturers and dealers of farm machinery are characteriz- ed as being of doubtful legality, tending to limit competition and in- crease prices, while a large part of them are held to be proper for pro- tection of legitimate interests, in a report by the old Bureau 8t Corpor- ations submitted today to President Wilson.

At Southern Com Congress (By Associated Press) Muskogee, Okla., April 26—Assist- ant Secretary Vrooman, ‘of the de- partment of Agriculture, spoke for the national administration at the opening of the Southern Commercial Congress here today. President Wil- son and Secretary Houston were un- able to attend. r Mr. Vrooman said in part: “Now'as in the past, we find sev- eral distinct types of business organ- | ization; that founded upon privilege, | that founded upon unrestricted competition, that founded upon reg- ulateg competition, and that em- bodying the spirit and method of co-operation. “The paramount issue before the American people today is not the tariff, nr corporation control, nor any of those other political or econ- {omic problems which newspapers and politicians discuss so glibly. The real issue is not political, nor even {economic. The paramount issue is the pyschological issue of personal, {fundamental honesty. Is the indi- vidual citizen willing to produce all the wealth he requires and to work and vote to render it impossible henceforth for anyone, by any finan- cial hocus-pocus, to acquire wealth that others have produced? That's the issue. Along that line will be fought the battle for the control of that twilight zone in business where !‘dog eat dog’ i sstill to often the rule. When a coherent and master- | ful majority of our people ‘gets’ the full significance of this issue and in- sists that he who produces more than he acquires is a public bene- factor, but that he who acquires more than he produces is a social parasite, then means will be found of ridding our civilization of the pre- datory business type, and of giving each individual the full product of his toil of brawn or brain. It is to this end that the beneficient social forces of our day are trending. “Regulated competition is un- | questionably better than irrespon- sible nd uncontrolled competition. 1 Moreover, by the slow, sure means of experience, Federal and State con- trol of business is becoming at once more elastic and more effective. But no perfection of the mechanism of such control can ever overcome the inherent limitations of this method of promoting social and economic justice. “As_President Wilson has indicat- ed, thé time is ripe for a co-opera- tion that is not exclusive or oppreu-,braflon of the completion of the sive, but rather inclusive and bene- $1,720,000 dam creating Lake Aus- Implement and Vehicle Association, National Federation of and Vehicle Dealers’ Implement .Associations and interstate associations. The two organizations are national in scope and work in clpse co-operation. Efforts of manufacturers to fix wholesale prices, control of retail prices, concentrated control of pat- ents, opposition of dealers to direct. transactions between manufacturers reduce costs of manufacture and dis- tribution, are reviewed at some length. The fight of organized deal- ers against competition of mail or- der houses, the report says, has been carried to the extent of efforts to have postal rtes revised to in- crease charges on packges and to curtail advertising faclities of mail order houses by persuading manu- facturers who sell through dealers not to advertise in farm papers which carry mail order advertise- ments, The great problem of the dealers associations, the investizators found, was to find some lawful means of facturers who refuse to confine their trade to regular dealers. “While the organized dealers, dis- a black list or of instituting a boy- cott against anyone,” says the re- permitted to dissemyimate informa- would refuse to continue business relations with offending magufac- turers even in the absence of an ex- press agreement to do so.” AUSTIN'S WEEK TO JUBILATE Austin, Texas, April 26—In gala attire and thronged with vh\uora.'

The pastor walked down among the “scholars,” smiling upon each bright-taced little boy and girl, after the time-honored fashion of pastors on such errands bent. The badge on the little boy's coat caught his eye. “Ah, my son, there?” “That's my golden text,”” answer- ®d Jacy eagerly, beaming like 3 Ch ~Cat. “Your golden text? nice, indeed.
