"Up to the close of business on Monday there" had been 445 domestic charters recorded in the office of Secretary of State, during the present year, and eighty-eight foreign charters filed, making a total of 533 charters for the year, or art average of nearly two each busi ness day. The total authorized capital -of the state charters amounted to approximately six million dollars, which is not considered as an unusual amount for Mississippi charters, due to the fact that many of the state's corporations organized recently have not carried the larere auth orized amounts of capital that was true back in the years prior to the depression.

"The total capitalization of the foreign corporations qualifying within the state, has been unusually large," said Mr. Wood," and amounts to the enormous figures of $819,923,300.00, or approximately twice the total of foreign capital entering the state for any previous year. "Among the foreign charters filed for qualification during 1934, there were thirty-two corporations, whose authorized capital stock ran from $50,000 up to as high as $600,000,000.00, and several of these ran far into the Millions. There were twenty-five domestic corporations filed for record throughout the year, that carried an authorized capital of $50,000.00 or more. "The increase in the number of domestic corporations over other recent years, and the entry of largely capitalized foreign corporations to the State of Mississippi bespeaks the continued and renewed confidence of not only our own people, but on the part of those from various other states of the Union, who.

recognized and appreciate the advantages and opportunities offered by the Magnolia State," concluded Mr. Wood. Cleveland Housing A. i ACCUStD SLAYER! OF GRADY PYRON! IS ALLOWED BOND! Under $25,000 Bond For Appearance Before Grand Jury in Spring ENORMOUS THRONG i Attends Preliminary Hearing at Courthouse Here Monday Before one of the largest crowds ever believed to congregate for preliminary hearing last Monday morning, Doc T. Woods was released under a $2500.00 bond for his appearance before the Grand Jury when it convenes in the spring on a charge of murdering Grady Py- ron, 22-year-old son of Pink Pyron, at the Will Ratcliff home near Alva on December 26.

The bond of $2500.00 was placed by Justices of Peace E. F. Blaylock and W. P. Condon of Beat orfe and Justice C.

J. Grant of Beat two. District Atorney Clarence E. Morgan of Kosciusko, presented the case for the state, presenting three witnesses who offered evidence tending to prove that the deceased was slain by a gun in the hands of the defendant. The defense was represented by V.

D. Rowe, local attorney, A. F. McKeigney and L. P.

Latham of Eupbra. The defense presented no witnesses at the Justice hearing but indicated that a plea of self defense wrould be entered when the case came to hearing before the Circuit Court. Young Pyron's funeral was held last Friday afternoon from the Shiloh Baptist church with the Rev. J. B.

Middleton of Eu-pora, former pastor of the deceased, in charge. Young Pyron is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Pink Pyron; three sisters, Mrs. R.

DOG AND RADIO SET CAUSE $2,000 SUIT A dog and a radio, which the plaintiff seeks to have enjoined, and $2,000 worth of alleged damages to Mrs. Antoinette Centini's nerves, prime factors in a Superior Court action at Oakland, are causing considerable discussion these days in the neighborhood of 1812 67th Ave. There are the dog lovers and the radio fans who found it difficult to reconcile Mrs. Centini's attitude in going to court about Mrs. Irene McClure's dog, "John Doe," and, her radio, "Richard Roe." But, according to Mrs.

Centini's action seeking to enjoin both the radio and the dog, "Richard" torments the night with thundering rhythms and screeching wails and squawks, and every so often too often, according Mrs. Centini "John" puts in his nickel's worth of barks and growls. lieves that children can see an gels.

S. Shaw. extension economist, announced from State College. Growers got 16 cents per pound for young hens, 15 cents for young toms, 12 cents for old toms and nine cents for number twos, one cent higher than the prices received for Thanksgiving shipments. Shaw said that 6,700 producers participated in the two shipments in which 280,000 pounds were sold.

The sales were negotiated by extension specialists and county agents. Shaw announced that a turkey growers' association will be organized by the extension servise in the shipping area to establish dressing and cold storage plants. One unit of the proposed system has already been installed in Oktibbeha County. Father Flanagan Favors Old Time Whipping Post' OMAHA, Jan. 4.

The whipping post is the only punishment fit for fathers habitually guilty of delinquency in the care of their children, according to Father E. J. Flanagan, head of Father Flanagan's Boys' Home here. While the director of the non-sectarian4 institution does not propose to take the law into his own hands and administer the, floggings, he nevertheless recommends welfare agencies consider it as a means of eliminating one of most pressing problems, says a despatch from Omaha, Dec. 29.

With many small boys under his care, Father Flanagan has often pointed out a father's first duty is the care of his children. Juvenile court records show, he said, that a large proportion of juvenile delinquency is due to lack of paternal interest in the youngsters. "Since our legislative bodies are now so solicitous in passing laws to protect society against kidnapers and other extreme criminals, why shouldn't they go a little farther arfd pass some laws which might in some measure punish bad fathers who are contributing toward juvenile delinquency?" Father Flanagan declared. An eight-month cruise of the vessel, Sir James Clark Ross, netted 1444 whales, which yielded oil to an estimated value of over $1,250,0010.00. California scientists have found that X-rays increase the effect of certain poisons as much as 25 per cent.

Crenshaw, wishes the good folks of Montgomery county to know that he is satisfied with his job and wants to keen it at least another term. So says Earl in allowing The Winona Times to announce him as a candidate to succeed himself. Mr. Crenshaw feels that he has made the county a good circuit clerk and that the Democratic principle of allowing a man who has made good for one term to succeed himself for at least one more term, should be applied in his case. Always pleasant, naturally accommodating, Mr.

Crenshaw has contributed materially to pleasing atmosphere which prevails at the Montgomery county courthouse, an'd at the same time, has dispatched the duties of his office in an efficient manner. In asking for re-election, Mr. Crenshaw states that he has proven that he is qualified -t hold his office, he has in the past and will continue in the future to consider the office and not the man, that he realizes his position is one of public trust and must be treated as such.

'Cap Stoker is formally announcing for the post of Supervisor from Beat One. "Cap," as he is known throughout the entire county, states that he has no pet scheme whereby the county can be made an Utopia, but that he believes he has the practical business ability to conduct his part of the county's business in such a manner that the interests of the people will be protected. 1Qqi cni-or -oa a lydl Mr. btoKer was a can- didate for the office to which he aspires in 1935. He has never held office, but believes that he has conducted his personal business in a manner which would indicate that he deserves the confidence of the public in an official capacity.

Throughout the next few months he will discuss his views on county government with the voters and personally present his claim for office.

CENSUS WORKERS BEGIN ENUMERATION OF NATION'S FARMS Approximately 25,000 Federal Employees Began Huge Task Babson Says Business Gains And More Jobs During 1935 Hundreds of Englishmen. Claim They See Angels WASHINGTON, D. Jan 4. Approximately 25,0010 federal census employees Wednesday begun the huge task of enumerating the more than six million farms and ranches of the United States in what is probably the most important agricultural census in the nation's history, according to a statement released by Director William L.

Austin, Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce. Plans call for the completion of the canvass before the end of January. "The Fifteenth Decennial Census Act, approved June 18, 1929, directed that a mid-decennial Census of Agriculture be taken January 1, 1935, for the calendar year 1934," Director 1 Austin said. "Because of the tremendous upheaval in the great basic industry of agriculture, due to the depression, drought and other factors new farm statistics are urgently needed in connection with the Government's vast recovery-program." "The earnest cooperation of the farmer is necessary to the success of this census, for it is one of the federal activities designed primarily for his benefit. However, the welfare of agriculture affects all other industries, directly or indirectly, and the public generally.

The statistics are necessary not only for the ordinary transaction of governmental business, but also for allotment programs. These programs range from the allocations of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration to the Federal Emergency "Relief and Farm Credit Administrations. Indeed, (Continued on Page 4) (By ROGER BABSON) BABSON PARK, Jan. 4. General business will show a moderate gain in the first six months of 1935 over the first half of 1934.

I am more bullish on' the second half of the year, providing the capital goods industries, represented by building, show some life during the early months of 1935.
