No Strike
Effort Is
Made Yet
No formidable effort to bring about
a waLk-out in the Henderson and
Harriett Cotton Mills here had been
made up to this afternoon, and re
ports were that all five of the Hen
derson cotton mills were running
normally with the usual number of
employees. So far the only effect of
the national textile strike in this com
munity has been the efforts of labor
organizers to form a local chapter of
the union, which was effected last
♦week with a membership which has
not yet been definitely learned.

Some Agitation for Added*
Beautifying of Main
Street Appearance
i ' • .7 :~ ■ !
Some agitation has been aroused
in favor of removal of a lot of so
ca'lled unsightly signn. displayed in
front of 'business - houses, and the
possibility was seen today that an or
dinance of’ some kind may be put
through the' City Council relating to
this practice on Garnett street. Such
regulations, it appeared, if enacted,
would not relate to costly and attrac
tive electric signs, but many that
bang low. and extend far out over t'ie
sidewlak would be banned.
It was rec riled today that n city
ordinance limits signs to an exten
sion of only three feet from the
building out of the. sidewalk, and in
dications were that sentiment. W’as
favoring absolute elimination of cer
-1 tain types of signs, which it w as
thought detract from the beauty and
attractiveness "of the street since the
improvements were made.

Local Troops In
Thick Os Strike
Henderson Guardsmen on strike
duty in Gaston county are assigned
to the Hatch Hosiery Mill at Bel
mont, which was the scene of the
greatest disorders Monday morn
ing, according to word received
here today. No one was hurt, but
the soldiers had a hard time driv
ing pickets back from the gates
of the mill so that those who wish
ed to work could enter.
The Henderson soldiers were
called out Saturday night, and left
at 2 a. m., Sunday by motor truck
and bus for Gastonia, whence they
were sent to Belmont for duty.
BOARDS' APPROVAL

Completing Survey of Last Site to be
Offered for Consideration for ,
Locating pt the New
High School
Acceptance of the contract of the
Federal Public Works Administration
for furnishing $286,900 for a new
school building program in Hender
son was voted today by both the
Vance Couoiy ®>ard of Education
and the Vance Board of County Com
missioners, both of which held called
meetings for the purpose of acting on
the contract*
The action of the two boards today
was entirely a formal matter, yet an
essential in the routine procedure of
getting the money for the school pro
jects.
It was said that the next step now
is for the bond attorneys in New
York to proceed to write the forms
and have the actual bonds printed
ready for delivery. The attorneys are
also to prepare forms for advertising
the bonds for sale before the Local
Government Commission in Raleigh,
when the PWA will buy them as a
matter of course. That is a formal
procedure. That. is expected to be
done imihediately.
Meantime, the last of the sites to
be surveyed as a possible location
for the “new high school is being com
pleted, and it is expected the city
school bofird will be in position to act
in a few days in reaching a decision
on the location of the school.
Bids for the \york can be called
for in a short time, and school autho
rities now anticipate that definite
moves toward construction work will
much longer be delayed.

farmer-borrower whose loan was se
cured by hose two crops to pay their
loans promptly in full. ,
“The collections this fall from these
four states have already mounted to
over $1,600,000, indicating a genuine
desire on the part of the farmer-bor
