ATLANTA, Dei • 26.—That there
will be no short! ige ol industrial
and commercial 18 bor during the
year 1924 is the belief expressed
by Hal Stanley, state commissioner
of commerce and Jabor. There will
be a shortage, however, in farm la
bor.
The great number of people of I
all types' that are an nually coming j
to the city from the will
perhaps more than supply the de
mand for the various kinds of la
bor in the cities, according
Stanley. This migratiojr. of the
rural populace to the city will
greatly deter the agricultural pro
gress of the state, he continued. Y
“While there is enot'g.h labor in !
the states to supply both* industrial
and farm demands,” the commis
sioner said. “T& labor pvill not
go to the farms under pres ant con- •

"a crime of undying shame if the"

forcibly in the collection of customs (
within the territory of my govern- (
ment, so that traitors and militay- (
ists might flourish at Pekin.”
Sun has caused the message to be 1
published at Canton, where the con-]
dition is critical, with some of the
foreign gunboats cleared for action
and a decisive step by the Canton
government expected momentarily I
Sun’s message adds:
“America was our example when i

liberty, however, there comes, not
a Lafayette, but an American ad
