WRITE I'M FARM LOAN PLAN
Agriculture EiIl-HeIp for Farm
ers Needed Long.

WashinetCn, March "A farm loan
plan was written into the Agricultural
Appropriation Bill by the House to-
night after long and vigorous fight.
The rural credits amendment reported
by the agricultural committee and gen.
orally accepted as having the sanction
of the administration was revised by
a series of amendments which revo-
lutionized the proposal.
AS framed in the House. the plan
would provide for system of farm
loan associations formed in individual
communities to make loans on farm
mortgage notes at not more than 6 per
cent interest. These associations would
form federal land banks in districts
for the purpose of dealing in the mort
cages held by the association and
lending to the association upon those
mortgages. In these banks the gov
eminent would have a supervising and
under certain circumstances stock
holding interest. They would be
authorized to issue bonds based on
their farm mortgage security.
BY vote of 237 to SO the House re-
iected the McCumber proposition and
then the perfected BukleyHollis
amendment was agreed to without a
roll call The bill was sent to confer
ence.

TO HAVE q new SUBMARINES
Senator Smoot Wanted Government to
Hurry and Build rs Of the
Underwater Craft.

Washington, Feb. ~. Congress
worked away steadily today and to-
night on its task OF cleaning up supply
bills which must be out of the way be-
fore adjournment, March 4. The Sem
ate passed the Naval Bill of 1852 mil.
lion dollars; the Fortifications Bill. six
million dollars, and the Diplomatic
Bill, $4,200.000, while the House spent
the day debating the general efficiency
measure, with Interruptions now and
then to dispose of conference reports.
The Senate added about eight mil.
lion dollars to the Naval Bill as 1t
passed the House, providing in the
two;battleship construction program
for five seagoing submarines, instead
of one: for sixteen instead of eleven
coast defense submarines; for gun
boat and hospital ship, and adding one
million dollars for an armor plant and
one-half million dollars for projec.
tile factory.
Senator Smoot vainly sought to
have authorized the construction of
fifty seagoing and twenty-five coast
submarines, declaring that no man
can tell when the European disturb
ance will involve this country in diff
culties."
The Notifications, Bill was passed
without amendment, so it now goes to
the President for his signature. Some
one-quarter million dollars was added
to the Diplomatic Bill, and para

lect from Cuba six and one-half mil

ton in this country will be cut off.
America Will Protest Again.
The impression is general in official
quarters that strong protest will be
made against the action of the Allies,
which is regarded as an unprecedented
and novel step. Officials point out
that in the reprisals which the bellig'
erents are making toward each other
there is a singular forgetfufness of the
fact that whatever might be the viola,
tions of International custom as be.
tween these countries at war, this
could not affect the status of interna'
tional rules as between the United
States and countries with which she Is
at peace.
If Protests Fail, What?
Officials realize that except for dip.
lomatic correspondence, the points OF
which might be easily exhausted with.
out remedy, there is no way for neu.
trail governments to enforce their pro.
tests and still maintain their neutral
ity.
The general disregard of precedents,
it is pointed out, has made the posi-
ton of neutrals more delicate in the
present circumstances than ever be-
fore, though a somewhat similar sit
uation which led to embargoes by the
United States and the non-intercourse
arose in the early part of the Nine
teenth century during the Napoleonic
wars. A blockade was declared by
Great Britain against the German
coast from the River Elbe to the port
of Brest (France), inclusive.
Napoleon. then in camp at Berlin,
proclaimed counter blockade against
the entire British coast and prohibited
commerce with England. Great Brit
ain then retaliated by issuing an order
in council prohibiting neutral vessels
from trading with the ports of France
and her allies and with all ports OF
E,urono from which the british flag
was excluded.

Night Riders Kill Two Men

Madisonville, KY, Feb. 26.-This
section, the scene of a number of
depredations committed by night rid
ers, was stirred today by the discov-
cry of what apparently was a double
murder at Handy Station, near here.
Demmett Woodruff, proprietor of a
store, and Glover Hoard, his clerk,
were found dead early today. Both
had been shot. Woodruff body was
lying near the rear of the store and
Hoard's inside. Pepper had been
sprinkled in the footsteps of their
slayers, apparently to BATTLE pursuit
by bloodhounds.
The authorities have no clue, but
attribute the murders to night riders.

AIRSHIP SCOUTING
The AeTOpIane as a Range Finder
 In Modern Warfare.
AIDING THE MAN AT THE GUN.

How the Enemy Target lS Located and

 tillery Officer-A Code System That
 Is Simplicity Itself
 Range finding by ayiatoVs Is rec ognlzcd part Of modern warfare, as carefully worked out as any other branch or the service.
 The big gus range Is estimated in miles nowadays Instead of in yards, as formerly. More often than not the gunners do not see the target at which they are aiming. and the men In the target do not see the spot whence de structlon Is being pumped at them. High hills and broad valleys probably intervene. But cIrcIing about ln the air Is the busy neroplane which Is estah fishing contact between the gun and Its objective point
 II is essential. of course, that the man in the airShip and the man at the gun have a constant system of com munlcatiOn. Seemingly difficult, this is a feat that is simplicity itself. The airship carries certain lights or smoke bombs with which 1t can convey tnfor- nation to the watchers on the ground. The gunnerS have great strips of white material which can be formed into let ters Of the alphabet and can be seen from the airship.
 The rest Is merely a letter of codes and mechanics. If the letter \ means "obserye for range" and the letter v means "observe for effect of fire" the air man can convey to the marksmAn whatever information they may de- sire.
 The first thing, of course, ts to locate the target The air man goes up to a prearrlugrd altitude and scouts about until he fuds it When he Is directly over 1t be drops various lights In some understood combination of numbers or culorS. The uviutors height Is known. and the distance ut which the lights are dropped can be ascertalned by h.
