Passed Into History.-The Aldrich-
Vreeland currency law expires with
the passing of this month and the
country will hereafter depend on the
Federal reserve system for any issue
Of emergency currency ii may need.
The Federal reserve banking system
seems to make all other provisions
superfiuous. The Aldrich-Vreeland
law was enacted in May, 1908, as a
temporary means of financial protec-
ton, but the treasury found no use for
it until 1914. 1t was extended one
year by the terms of the Federal re-
serve act and was ready for use when
the trouble followed the outbreak of
the European war. The New York
Post gives the history of the emer-
gency currency briefly, but interest
in9ly. 1t says that under the terms
of the law, $500, 100000 of notes had
been prepared and locked away in the
treasury at Washington, against the
day of their possible need. Printed
on large uncut sheets, the notes were
stored in vaults which, it was thought,
would not be opened until the middle
of 1915, when the notes would be
taken out and destroyed. They were
taken out on August 2, and diStribut-
ed for use to the national banks Of the
country. Clerks whose only thought
was speed. cut the sheets on which
they were printed, and rubber
stamped them with the bank officers
names; that is why so many Of them
had such curious oblong shapes and
were so sticky to the hand.
Between August and october 25.
the volume of emergency currency
steadily mounted; the high water
mari, for notes outstanding at one
time was 1868, 1880, on October 25.
In November s127 900 900 of the notes
were retired, in December $91, ,000, 900,
in January $4,000 900. Now there is
outstanding a total of less than ST.
$50. 900, and this is likely to be cancell-
ed before June 30, 50 that the passing
ont of the Aldrich- -Vreeland law will
be accomplished without the slightest
financial ripple.-CharlOtte Observer

YESTERDAYS WAR SITUATION
Summary Of Developments as Set
Forth in the Dispatches.

Petrograd seems to be in no wise
discouraged over the enforced retlre-
ment Of the Russian troops from Lem
berg, whose capture by the Teutonlc
allies is being celebrated In all tne
towns Of Austria and Germany. Inc
Russian army is still in full retreat
advices from the Lemberg district IN
dicate, although strong Russian rear
guards are opposing the Austro-Ger-
man advance. Farther south along the
Deniester river, another Russian army
is fighting desperately to prevent the
Austrians and Germans from breaking
through. The German General Lin
singer, Berlin reports, has crossed
the river, which is taken in that
capital to indicate that his advance
cannot be stayed.
But it is pointed out from Petro-
grad that at only one place on the
entire length Of the Deniester have the
Austro-G Germans established them
right bank.
The last Austrian official COM
munication says the Russians are re-
treating on the Deniester between the
Vistula and the San and that north
of the Vistula the Russian rear guards
were driven beyond the Kamienka
river, the AuStrians occupying Ostro-
wieo and Candomierz in Poland, near
the Galician border.
Artillery has held sway in the ope-
rations in France, the Germans eX-
pending q vast number Of shells. on
Perry-au- -Bac, Sapigneul, in the
Argonne and Metzeral. A recent bonn
hardment Of Dunkirk by the Germans
involved the expenditure of SO tons OF
great shells from their long range
guns. At less than hour and a half
intervals throughout the day 16-inch
shell fell into the city. The explosives
did much damage, but killed only a
few civilians.
Great Britain has begun in earnest
the work of producing munitions, first
of all assembling the skilled workmen
necessary to carry out the plan which
David Lloyd-George, minister or mu-
nitions has formulated. The first OF
the seven days allowed by the minis
ter to the labor leaders to furnish
the men, is reported to have given
good results i'm the way OF recruit
ing.
Berlin advices say the prospects
are good for the forthcoming German
note to the United States meeting the
American governments wishes re-
garding the submarine warfare. 1t is
sent to an examination before taking
action.
England is preparing to take stock
of her national resources, a bill pro-
yiding for it having been. prepared for
introduction in the British parliament
next week.

THE STATE WAREHOUSE
Size of the Situation According to the
"Smiter."

Last October the legislature. called
i'm extra session to furnish rellef 10
the farmers because of the ruinously
low price of cotton, passed the state
warehouse bill to enable the farmer
to hold his cotton for better price
After emasculating the original DILL
and appropriating insufficient 1unos
to carry out the provisions OF even
that compromise with corporate greed
and political hatred-they elected the
father of the original and better DILL
John L. McLaurin, state warehouse
commissioner. They expected NC
Iaurin with insufficient funds-lack
of knowledge on the part OF the farm
ers and hostility of banks and corpor-
ate warehouses-to make dismal
failure, so it could be repealed at the
next regular session. and Mcl.aurln
and the farmers both gotten rid or.
McIaurin fooled the whole bunch,
he put the warehouse system into
successful operation, and the low
country farmers who benefited by II
stuck to him. When the legislature
attempted to repeal this, the only
piece of constructive legislation for
the farmers benefit that has been en-.
acted for twenty years-it got too not
for them and they turned 1t loose
p. d. q. ...-
The commissioner has about fifty
state warehouses in operation-most-
ly in the low country-and has secur-
ed thousands Of dollars for farmers at
6 per cent-loans on state warehouse
certificates.
But our people up here, don't know
about these state warehouses and how
to get one, and why? 1t Is because
McLaurin is breaking up the trust
owned corporate warehouses that rob,
farmers on storage and insurance, and
the banks who rob them gain in in
terest-therefore the trust-owned pa
pers are 'agin it.
This is a state institution for the
benefit of the farmers and to relieve
them from feudal vassalage to finan-
cial pirates. If our press was rree
and fair, 1t would get all the informa-
ton it could from the commissioner,
and publish 1t so its farmer patrons
who pay for the paper. could benent
by the information. The reason they
don't is because they are not free and
dare not disobey the orders OF their
masters, the corporations-who very
properly see in the state warehouse
system when in operation properly, an
end to their tenure Of usury and pill
fering from the farmers of the state.

NO RIGHT TO COMPLAIN.
Great Britain Says America Has Been
Treated Fairly.

Washington, June 24.-Great Brit
ain. i'm a memorandum transmitted to
the United States and made public
here and in London tonight recites
at length its efforts to minimize in
convenience to neutral commerce re-
sulting from the order-in-council
against trade with Germany, Austria
and Turkey, and asserts that Ameri-
can citizens have no just grounds Tor
complaint on account OF the treat
ment accorded their cargoes.
No attempt is made to answer the
principles asserted in the American
note of March / protesting against the
order in council and insisting upon tne
right of neutrals to carry on legitimate
commerce with each other and TO
trade in non-contraband with civilians
in belligerent countries. In transmit
ting the memorandum Ambassador
Page said it was merely an explana-
ton of concrete cases and the regula-
tions under which they are deait
with" :,
Another note to Great Britain Is
now in course of preparation at the
state department and is expected to De
dispatched as soon as the negotiations
with Germany over submarine war
fare have been cleaned up. While
this communication probably Will
make reference to the latest memo
randum, it is understood that the
manner of enforcing the order-in-
council will not be treated as relevant
to the question at issue-whetneT
there is any warrant in international
law for the powers that Great Britain
and her allies have assumed to exer-
else over the commerce of the world.
In it's memorandum the foreign oil.
fee emphasizes the various special
concessions made in favor or the Unit
ed States citizens" in setting forth that
all British officials have acted in ev-
ery case with the utmost dispatch
consistent with the object in view and
of showing in every case such conslu-
Grafton for neutrals as might De COM
patible with the object. namely, 10
prevent vessels from carrying goods
for or coming from the enemy's TERRI
tory"
ARRANGEMENTS for buying American
cotton detained and for permitting
the passage of goods bought In Ger
many by many Americans before the
date of order-in-council are outlined
and promise that consideration Will De
given to special cases OF this kind In
the future.
According to a summary or shlps
detained there are now ~ Vessels
which cleared from the United states
now held in ports Of the United King
dom. OF these eight are said to- De
unloading cotton which Great Brltaln
has agreed to purchase, seven Will De
