ANSWER IS FILED HERE BY FURNITURE COMPANY That the plaintiff. Joseph H. Cook, was Injured, because of his own neg-tigence and carelessness Is one of the principal allegations of the Giant Furniture company, of High Point, <n the company's answer to the comnlaint filed by Cook aeveral weeks ago. Cook is suing the Giant Furniture company for $100,080. al-leging that he was seriously and permanently injured when a piece of lumber, projected from a machine which he was operating, struck him. In the answer, filed in Guilford Su-perior court Tuesday, the company declares that if there were any de-fects in the machine it was the duty of the" plaintiff to remedy them. thing today is to get our biggest in-du, 8tryrf which is the farming indus-try, on a sound basis. "I am not afraid of the so-called 'radicalism' of the great northwest and the great farming communities. For years I have been preaching an equalization of opportunity. for the farmer, placing him on an equal footing wtth_>those 'with' whom he has 'to deal, particularly in regard to facilities for the establishment of greater credit to the farmer, for the more orderly marketing of his crops, for greater facilities for the production of crops, for legaliz-ing the co-operative marketing, for the establishment of neutral graders —so that the farmer will not see his crop, sold at one grade, become In the hancjs of a new buyer a higher grade. "Because the farmer is unorganiz-ed he has not been able to keep step with other interests who have been organized. The farmer works hard and gets too little of what he pro-duces. The unorganized consuming public Is almost in the same posi-tion." Tulka of Farmers Mr. Baruch was asked if he In-dorsed the Non-Partisan league wholly". "No." he replied, "but although one cannot agree with their entire program, even their severest critics will find, on investigation. that there are reasons for just com-plaints. While It Is true that the so-called 'magic elevator' has to some extent been eliminated, ' there are still many Inequalities and abuses which can and will be corrected. After all, the farmer Is not desirous of reform that is going to injure the community. "What to 'radicalism'? The Nor-man barons were called radicals when they demanded- the Magna charts from King John, and the American colonists were called radi-cals when they sought to break away from England!!. The so-called rao-lcallsm of the farmer is no more than his demand for a square deal. I am not advocating everything th* farmers ask. but I bellsre that an examination Into the facts' should be made and corrections made that will place him on an equal footing with jothers with whom he has to deal." tion of the case.

Somewhere on .$he- ptaold- waters of the Atlantic, mayhap, Is a Chinese skipper, the redoubtable Lee Tong, complacently collecting his thoughts in the fo'castle of the sprightly yacht purchased by his master, awaiting sailing instructions from His Lordship Captain Billy McKen-zie, but it appears highly probable that the philosopher from the Orient will have a'long, long wait. For "Captain" tMcKenzie, who put into port in Greensboro last June, has been unavoidably detain-ed. Of his exploits as a mighty man of war the cap'n has oracularlxed to many sympathetic auditors tn this city during recent months, but, alas, such is the lncredultly of some persons, the stirring story was finally punctured in several import-ant places. First, however, permit the ancient mariner to tell his own story as he related it to many Greensboro peo-ple. He first saw the light o' day in Roanoke, Va., 30 years ago. While he was in the swaddling clothes or shortly thereafter the hero's parents moved to bonny Scotland and there he was in swaddling clothes stage or reached the age of 11 years. Then the spirit of adventure claimed Billy MoKenzie for its very own. With his father, who was the owner of a large landed estate, a whopper of a cattle tarm, in South Africa, Billy went to that favored country, and there he remained un-til his. father's death. Then the young advenTurer returned to Scot-land with his mother. Subsequent-ly they went to England and later came to America. It was then, according to the cap'n's chronicle, that McKenzie j'ined the French aviation service. His service was cut short when he was shot down and l06t an eye. Later McKenzie went to Canada, where he became a member of the American expeditionary force and again he embarked for France. Sub-sequently he arrived in Greensboro and since, that time,' he.has given many a man an earful in regard' to his heroic activity. But the good yacht Diana must not be forgotten. In 1912 while Captain McKenzie and his first wife and baby were cruising off the Flor-ida coast in that worthy vessel they were caught in a typhoon which was cuttln' up scandalously. There the wife and baby were victims of the storm, while McKenzie, wtth a few members of the crew, had an escape so narrow that It makes him nervous now In contemplation. ln 'Municipal court about 10 aays ago, as previously narrated in The Patriot, "Captain" McKenzie appear-ed in answer to a charge of obtain-ing money under false pretense, his arrest having been instigated by members of the Henry K. Burtner oost of the American Legion. Be-fore Judge Collins the fellow admit-ted that he' had not served in the American or French army, that he was seeing so much of the seamy side of life that he resorted to the story to obtain assistance. Judg-ment was suspended for 10 days and -he wanderer was to procure gainful employment. The g. e. was found, but McKenzie didn't tarry wRh it more than a couple of* days. " Subsequently the adventnrer waa arrested in Salisbury and on Tuesday again appeared betore Judge Col-lins. Thistle • he undertook to con-tradict tbe judge, declaring tbe lat-ter bad given Wn>" permission to leave the city, but His Honor said he had not done so. The Judge 'lowed that McKensie'a wife had said she didn't care «*st was done with her erstwhile lord' sad master. Judge Collins said. "Fosr months on the county roads." McKenale said, "Judge, for God's sake have a heart. This will rain me. I've got a wKe and baby to support." Tbe Judge said "Change the entry, Mr. Clerk, to 12 months In the county Jail, to be as-signed to the county roads." In Municipal court this morning, however. Judge Collins reduced the sentence of McK%n*ie from 12 month to four months. Indicating the belief that the defendant was not possessed of the strongest men-tal faculties in tbe world. McKenzte's wife and baby are be-ing supported here by the American Legion and the Woman's Auxiliary of the legion. Besides lqnging for the historic yacht McKenzie will pine for his magnificent residence on Cuyahooga evenue. Hollywood. Calif. At any rate, he had previously informed members of the legion that he own-ed a handsome home there. Perhaps a caretaker is now in charge if the naughty movie queens haven't taken possession. What are the wild waves saying? tAsk Skipper McKenzie, and If he can't tell you, then send a radiogram to Lee Tong. The cap'n's auditory faculties are not sttffTcieDtly devel-oped to enable him to hear 'em from his present post on the Guilford county highways. Fosr Bnrned to Death Armory- Miss.. Nov.
