ABiG INCREASE
WASHINGTON',- Doc. 29. Novem
ber business condltlom: represented
a continuation of tho upward trend
in production, a greater employment
of labor which in somo localities was
reported Hearing tho scarcity mark,!
and a generally healthy tone in trade,
according to tho monthly survey
made public today by the federal re
serve board. . '
Contrary to tho usual situation at j
this season of the year, tho board
found production in basic industries
increasing, a condition that has pro-j
ceeded almost uninterruptedly since
July, 1921, when production wau,
lower than at any tlmo in recent '
years.
The increased production was ac
companied by a heavy freight move
ment, car loadings for November be
ing reported only five per cent be
low the high record in October, und
substantially higher than correspond
ing months in previous years. De
splto heavy demand, tho rail lines
are .said to be meeting tho call for
ct-rs becauso of the great decrease
of the number under repairs.
Labor shortages were reported in
some localities, tho review stated,
adding that tho demand for workers
at most industrial establishments
seemed to be increasing. The short
ages were found largely among steel
and textile mills and building con
tractors, but there wan said to '
some surplus of common labor in the
eastern section of tho nation.
Wholesale trade felt the usual sea
sonal slump but It was not regarded
as serious becauso of the other
healthy conditions, and largo Christ
niar. sales obviously had tended to de
plete retail stocks.
The volue of payments by check,
ordinarily a matter of business turn
over, decleased slightly in every fed
eral reserve district except Atlanta,
the board said.
Larger demand for bank credit,
was noted during the month, but it
seemed t6 bavo been confined mostly
to the interior.
Demand was most pronounced in
the Clovoland, Richmond, St. Louis
and San Francisco districts, according
to the board's report.

that was enough. And it was enough
for mo, too. I couldn't see no Bcnso

a man they whipped over by Bastrop.
After'that I quit. I didn't join for no
whipping business."
Watt Daniels, a young Herculos In
strength and brave as a lion, led the
opposition to tho klan.
Seven warnings wero sent direct
to 'itl Daniels that ho must quit
Mer Koguo or ho would be whippod
Then one night beforo tho middle
of August, thoro was a secret meet
ing of the klan. It is supposed to
havo been held northwest of Mer
Koguo and north of Lake LaPourcho
in a section of the parish difficult of
approach and screened even from the
most distant observation by dense
Proves of moss trees. Here It was
determined to accomplish tho master
stroke that would demonstrate the
relentless ascendency of tho klan.
Thoso who opposed. It must be
crushed. Tho destruction of Watt
Daniels would put a bewildering fear
Into the hearts of all antl-klux.
Old Oar on Trip
The federal agents have found that
McKoin had two cars. One was an
old flivver. Tho other was a new
coupe He had discarded the old
car. But on the night of this mys
terious shooting ho didn't uso the
new ear. He got put the old ono and
it wan through tho back curtain of
this that the shots were fired, and he
did not again uso the old car He
discarded it again and resumed the
new one.
One might think perhaps, that
Watt Daniels was an undesirable, a
rough neck.
Kldorly Man Is Flogged
Not so. J. E. Daniels Is a fine old
planter of tho sort that softly says
"Yes, sir," and "No, sir," to the
meanest as well as the noblest.' Ho is
such a citizen as might stamp any
community for excellence. lid Is
nearly 70 years of age.". It was his

those butchered by the Ku Klux Klan.
Old Mr. Daniels was himself ono of
tho group of five, to' be taken Into the
gloomy wilderness of oaks deep hung
with solemn beads of Spnnlsh moss
and thero flogged, whllo his son,
bound and blindfolded, strained nt
his bonds and dropped a perspiration
akin to blood an ho cried out:
"May God damn your souls to hell
to beat a helpless old man and me
here, this way."
' Mr. Daniels camo home. That was
on August 24. A few days ago
they brought In the murdered and
mutilated body of his son. And how
Mr. Daniels Is a frayed and weary
