Credit Bureau is Being Inst?
pd Rapidly.
I Some weeks ago announcem
was made that our chamber^ of c<
merce would install a credit bur?
for the benefit of the merchants i
business men of Newberry. The
stallation of this bureau was und
taken only after several mercha
asked that it be done, and in ad
tion to this, a canvas of the city v
made to determine whether pr i
the ones that did not ask for it wai
ed it. This canvas resulted in the fir
mg that every merchant and busin?
m?n in'the city who are members
pur chamber pi commerce want
tins bureau.
According to'reports made by Se
retary McDaniel, the installation
the' bureau is being made very rapi
ly; more than two thousand nam
have already been turned in. Befo:
it can be completed, however, eve]
merchant must tum in his^ list.. A
instructions have been furnished j
them and Secretary McDaniel urg<
every merchant to tum in his list <
once, in order that the bureau ma
be completed as soon as possible.
It is pointed out that when th
bureau is completed it will be th
means of saving the merchants an
business men many dollars in bad ai
counts, as through this channel the
can find out the rating on every pe:
son in Newberry county who buys o
credit, and in view of the fact th
service is give a free, it should b
given the support and cooperation o
every merchant and business man i
the city.-Newberry Herald an
News. . .
(The merchants of Edgefield shoul
open a credit bureau. Such a mean
of exposing the dishonest purchase
is not unfair, to the honest man an<
no honest man objects to his recor
for debt paying being known.-Th

Edison Says Muscle Shoals
Plan Will Succeed.
Orange, N. J., Dec. 12.-Thoma
E. Edison, who recently accompaniei
Henry Ford on an inspection trip t<
the government's water power devel
opments at Muscel Shoals, Ala., to
day declared the automobile manu
facturer could make the Muscle pro
ject hum, not only getting his renta
but a good profit for the people."
"Fertilizer, which he would manu
facture, is in great demand in th(
South," said the inventor. "In north
ern Alabama I saw cotton fields witl
short stubby plants stunted for lac!
of fertilizer. What the people neec
is a cheap fertilizer. The price ii
too high now. The crop would bt
doubled arid employment .given tc
about 1,000,000 people if the Fore
project at Muscle Shoals wen1
through.
"One part of the plant is practi
cally ready for operation except foi
the completion of the dam, which
Fqrd wants the government to build
before he leases the property. The
government says the dam would- cost
$45,000,000. Ford estimates the cost
at $30,000,000. I think Ford's figure
is about right.

for that? If the profit exceeded 8 per

reduced."
Mr. Edison emphasized that his
connection with the plan was advis
ory. #
"Ford has a bright mechanical
mind," he said, "but is weak in chem
istry, and that's where I come in."
