HALIFAX ROAD BONDS
SOCIALIST MEMBER
WANTS 100000 FOR
A PEACE CONGRESS

Washington, Dec. 2.-Representa-
tive London, socialist member of con-
sress from New York, whose east side
district probably is more affected by
the European war than is any other
section of the United States, has pre-
pared joint resolution looking to the
appropriation of 100000, this sum to
be used in defraying the expense of
holding neutral peace congress, to
be called by the president.
1t is proposed to have the congress
sit until the war stops, and provision
is made in the resolution, as basis of
peace, for the evacuation of all invaded
territory, the liberation of oppressed
nationalities, gradual disarmament,
and a permanent international court
of arbitration.

COMPLAINT FILED
IN OFFICE CIRCUIT
CLERK, AT DELAND
NAME OF ISAAC r. STEWART, A
CITIZEN OF VOLUSIA COUNTY,
APPEARS IN WRITTEN RECORD.
HEARING SOON.

DeLand, Dec. 2.-The United States
Trust & Savings bank, of Jackson
vile, through its attorneys, Reynolds
& Rogers, of that city, filed today in
the Office of Circuit Court Clerk S.
ID. Jordan a bill of complaint against
the sale by the Volusia county COM
missioners to Gunter & Sawyers and
the c. w. McNair company, of Jack
sonville, of the 100000 issue of bonds
of the Halifax Road and Bridge dis
trict. The name of Isaac F. Stewart,
citizen of Volusia county, appears
in the complaint
The sale of the bonds to Gunter &
Sawyers and the McNair company,
whose bid was $4,000 plus accrued
interest, was authorized at a special
meeting on November % of the coun-
ty commissioners. There were sew
eral other bidders, and among these
was the United States Trust & Saw
ings bank, who proposed to pay for
the issue $397,O 900 but failed, perhaps
inadvertently, to stipulate additional
payment of the considerable sum of
interest that had accrued. Complain
ants seek an order from the circuit
court restraining the commissioners
from perfecting the sale to Gunter &
Sawyers and the G. w. McNair COM
pany, and the matter probably will be
threshed out within the next few days,
before Judge James w Perkins, who
is now presiding over a term of court
at Kissimmee

Nebra.ka,. Solid Aohievemeht,.

United States senators devoted a little time
to presenting to the world some established facts
concerning Nebraska In the course OF debate
on the effects OF prohibition. Similar facts and
figures we're marshalled twenty-five years ago,
by the editor OF The Bee, in the campaign upon
the prohibition amendment then submitted, and,
therefore does not come with the force of nov
city. rhe showing is highly satisfactory, so far
as It goes, but Nebraska has other worthy things
to be proud Of and confidently challenges COM
parison at any time with any state.
For example, Nebraska has a patriotic and
wide-awake citizenship. as shown by the active
participation Of the people in politics, local.
state and national. Nebraskans are public
spirited too, as will be found on visiting any OF
the many thriving towns that dot the prairies
of the state. where every evidence Of advance
in methods OF public administration may be
seen. No state in tho union surpasses Nebraska
In intelligence and enlightenment. the percent

bureau Of education for several decades being

its devoted followers and is active in its field.
Intellectually and spiritually. Nebraska invites
observation. s
b It is only natural that people SO busily en-
rloyed In other regards should be energetic in
depeloping material resources Industrious and
prudent. the people Of Nebraska are essentially
prosperous. For score Of years the farms Of
the state have produced total OF wealth aver
aging half billion Of dollars annually. To this
, should be added the output OF its factories and
workshops. insignificant, perhaps. alongside the
farm wealth, but mounting high into the mill
lions zach year. From any angle, Nebraska is
good to look upon, and a continual source Of
pride to It's people.

Outerown Clothes.

Nebraska building and loan associations are
bulging out OF the clothes cut for them by the
lawmakers OF sixteen years ago. ,se
The first law enacted IN 1891 was designed
for infant institutions threatened with stransu-
lation by robust concerns bearing similar names
and operating from other states. II served its
purpose well and made possible the progress OF
succeeding years.
The present law enacted In 1899 preserved
the essential features Of the original law, but
broadened along lines which experience de-
manded.
At the close of 1sSs. eighteen months after
the original act went into effect the aggregate
resources OF Nebraska associations were $1,000
600, in round numbers. In 1900, following
succession Of lean years. the total resources we're
ss.esz000. The span Of development to June,
1914, Is measured by resources OF Ss7,1s8, OOO
representing the investments and loans OF 49,
$50 shareholders.
Many serious problems have grown out Of
the astonishing expansion OF these institutions
in fifteen years. most OF them solved Without
retarding the business. But the chief problem
springs from the law itself. which In both the
original and the revised acts restricted the num-
Der Of shares In one name 70 5000 This limi-
tation was deemed ample at the time. and was a
factor OF much importance in preventing monop-
oily OF ownership. It has worked a hardship,
however. in preventing loans OF more than
$4,000 on given property in an individual or
corporate name Loans for larger sums have
been negotiated through the shareholdings Of
two or more persons. but their legality has been
questioned. The necessity OF removing the
doubtful legality OF these loans Is recognized IN
the last report OF the secretary Of the state
Banking department. who recommends remedial
action by the legislature.
It must be apparent that the law OF 1889.
fitted TO the meager business OF associations at
that time. needs recasting in some particulars TO
meet the needs OF a tenfold development Greater
freedom IN loaning power will broaden their
