BIC SUBSCRIPTION
MIGHT LAND BANK
May Be Up to Sioux Cityans
to Take a Large Block of
Stock In Rural Credit
Institute.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 8.-With the
farm loan board holding its first meet
ing today interesting gossip is current
as to the terms on which at least some
Of aspirants for land banks hope to win
them, this is by taking big blocks Of
stock In the banks, each Of which will
have $750,000 capital. One authority
here declared today that Sioux City
could get a bank IL It's moneyed men
took enough stock in 1t. This authority
Is nonofficial, but Is in close touch with
members of the farm loan board, and
what he says opens UP an interesting
field for speculation.
George Norris, Of Philadelphia, was
designated by President Wilson today
as farm loan commissioner, executive
head OF the farm loan bank system
created by the new rural credits act.
Washington, Aug. THE new farm
loan board charged with organization of
the federal land bank system, providing
methods for making loans to farmers
on first mortgages of land, WIFI hold its
first meeting today at the treasury de-
partment. The most important prelim-
mary work Of the board. after its mem
bers take the oath of office, will be the
division of the country into IL federal
land bank districts with q land bank
which will furnish the funds for the
loanS to farmers in each district.
Forty cities already have applied or
have been recommended for banks Be
fore 1t reaches any decisions, the board
is expected to travel across the CONT
nent to hear the views Of the farmers
on where the banks should be located
and how district lines should be drawn.
1t Is probable this part of the boards
work will take several months.
Cities which have applied or which
have been recommended for banks in
clude:
California-Stockton and Sacrament
to: Colorado-Denver; Iowa-Orange
City and Sioux City, Kansas-TOpeka:
overwhelmingly st. Paul and
CroOkston; Nebraska-Omaha and Lin
coin; North DakOta-Bismarck; Okla
homa-Oklahoma City; Oregon-Port-
land; South DIkota-Aberdeen and
Sioux Falls; TeXas-Dallas, Fort
Worth. Houston, Waco; Washington
Spokane; Decentralization and
Wauseau.
Claims of these cities have not been
considered as yet and 1t Is probable
they will he presented in detail during
the hearing.

SIGHT SUBMARINE
OFF MAINE COAST
Undersea Craft Believed to
Have Been Either Deutsch-
land or Overdue Plum
ger Bremen.

Machias Port, Me, Aug. S.--Captair
Small. Of the Cross Island coast guard
station. reported this morning that hi
station had sighted a large submarine,
west bound. Its nationality could moi
be determined, but the captain said h,
had no doubt that Il was an under SEQ
craft. The submarine was coming I,
the surface when 1t was sighted and
after running awash 10 minutes, agaii
submerged. II was thought that the
vessel might be the German submarine
Bremen. So far as can be learned
there are no United States submarined
on the Maine coast. The lookout wht
sighted the submarine later said that
he picked the vessel up in clear wealth
er 1--WE miles to the southeast. AS tn,
vessel came to the surface, the lookout
said he heard several blasts from tn,
signal horn at the light house on Seal
island, a British possession.
1t Is believed that the keeper of tho
light house was signaling to the keep.
er at Grand Mailman light, also British
owned. that a submarine had beer
sighted.
Immediately after the whistles
sounded, the submarine submerged. A
few moments later a haze set in and
II was impossible to see more than four
miles off Cross island.
Lowell Dunn, the lookout on Cross
island, later reported that he had
sighted q second submarine consider
ably smaller than the first one.
Washington, Aug. Navy officers
said today no American submarines
were known to be anywhere in the vi
cinity Of Cross island They thought
the boat sighted there might be the
German merchant submarine Deutsch-

BLOOD SERUM may Be
CURE FOR PARALYSIS
Physicians to Make Exhaustive
Test Of Discovery-valu-
able as Preventative.

New York. Aug. S.-An appeal wan
issued today to persons who had SUI =
tered from infantile paralysis and who
have recovered to give small quaint
ties OF their blood so that a serum could
be obtained and administered to those
now victims Of similar attacks. II was
stated that this appeal was made at
the request Of the department OF health
and physicians who are foremost In tho
fight Of the plague.
Physicians said that, owing to a lack
Of serum with which to make numerous
conclusive tests, its value has not vet
been fully proved, but indicated that
there was a possibility that, II admin.
lstered early enough, II would prevent
paralysis and save the patient from be-
coming crippled. There has been much
discussion of this claim and It has been
questioned by other physicians.
