Says Lever Serves
His People Well

Washington, July 18.-"I wish you
would write a story about Congress-
man Lever for publication in the
South Carolina papers. He is one
of the most useful men the State has
ever sent to Washington and deserves
we'll of the country and particularly
of his own people who should be fully
advised of the high mark he has made
for himself and for them by his
faithful and intelligent service as
their representative in Congress. "
This is what the Hon. David F. Hous-
ton, secretary of agriculture, said
to me the other day and is repeated
here in explanation of this article.
Mr.. Lever was Al years old last
January. He was elected to Congress
before he was 27 years of age and is
now serving his seventh regular term
from the Seventh District in addition
to the unexpired term of the late J.
William Stokes, whose private Sec
retary he was, and whom he succeed
ed without opposition. He will be
reelected to the next Congress
Sixty-ffth-without opposition, much
to the qualification of those who know
how admirably he has discharged his
duties here and to his colleagues of
both political parties whose respect
and confidence he has won by his
wisdom in counsel, his fairness in de-
bate, his integrity of character and
his uncommon common sense in deal
ing with all problems of constructive
legislation ard especially with those
that have been referred to his COM
mittee for solution-the House COM
mittee on agriculture, of which he
is chairman.
This committee is regarded by
many as first among the big commit
tees of congress because of the vital
Importance of the issues with which
it must deal and the steadily broad
ening life of all the people which is
based upon the soil, and it will be
conceded that in it's work this COM
mittee has never been more effective
than under the unselfish guidance
and direction of this modest South
Carolinian.
The committee of agriculture
deals with such questions as these:
The eradication of disease of plants
and animals ;the legislation necessary
to assure the enforcement of the pure
food and drug act, and the meat in
spection laws; the war against the
boil weevil, the destruction of the.
Southern cattle tick; the demonstra-
ton of improved farm methods; the
improvement of farm management;
the development of marketing facii-
ties; the standardizing of staple pro-
ducts; the regulation of prices; the
application of approved business
methods to the business of farming,
and the accomplishment of all these
desirable and necessary things with

Abbevi1le. Press and Banner

selected by the chairman to close the
debate for the friends Of the bill on
its final passage and its most critical
period. "
A man with a record like this ought
to be kept permanently in the public
service, land his example Of good work
we'll done with no thought Of personal
gain but only with the high ambition
of public service may well be COM
mended to all other men who repre-
sent the people in public office. Mr..
Lever stands for all that is best in
government. His people in one of
tthe most important districts in South
Carolina think so much of him that
they will send him back to Washing
ton for the eighth regular term in
Congress as the longer he stays the
better he gets.
Mr.. Lever is as modest as he is
useful. His strength is not in an au-
tomato mouth but in well filled
head. He does not waste time in idle
discussion to fill the Record and load
the mails to catch the applause of
emotional men; but when he speaks
he always has something to say that
ought to be said and that no, zone
could say better than he. His
strength in debate, in which he is
very happy, lies in his thorough pre-
paration upon the question under
consideration. Invariably courteous,
he does not lack the gift of incisive
speech, so that while he is much re-
spected for his courtesy he is at the
time feared for his courage.
Mr.. Lever is very human sort of
person. He is not as big physically
as Senator Ollie James, he does not
belong to the same class as Senator
Jim Ham Lewis in sartorial splendor,
nobody would ever take him for Sem
ator Vardaman because of his capil-
larry covering and he has never figured
on the chautauqua circuit like Mr..
Bryan; but he is just the sort of fell
low the folks at home should be proud
of not for the way he looks, but for
the things he does. He is q Lutheran
in religion in spite of the fact that
his first name is Asbury which is ex-
planned by the fact that his father
was a Methodist. He belongs to a
race of hard-working, frugal-minded
people in the Dutch Fork Of Lexing-
ton county. He was educated at
Newberry College and was graduated
with the highest honors Of his class
in 1895. He was poor in this worlds
goods when he entered college wear
ing brogan shoes and a hickory shirt {;
but what he lacked in the adornment
of his back he supplied with the gray
matter in his head. What he has
done in Congress tells the story Of a
successful life devoted to the service
of his State. ]. C. Hemphill,
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1916-07-19

out infringing upon the natural
right of any of the other elements of
the industrial life of the nation. Some
idea of the steadily growing import
ance of the committee on agriculture
may be gained from the simple state.
ment that whereas the agricultural
bill for 1907 provided for the appro-
priation of $9,932,940 for the work
of the department of agriculture, the
bill for 1917 carries appropriations
amounting to about S24, 100000 and
every dollar of this immense sum is
to be devoted, under the most string
ent regulations, to the Improvement
of the agricultural conditions of the
c,untry and the living estate of the
people millions for the people and
not one cent for the politicians.
This is Levers committee, and it
goes without saying that the man who
has the energy and brains to sit at
the head of such committee has a
tremendous influence in Congress
which is not measured by the work in
which he has specialized alone but
which extends as well to the larger
questions with which Congress must
deal in other fields of constructive
legislation. He must be far more
than the spokesman of the dominant
party in matters relating to agricul-
ture; he must be, in fact, the repre-
sentative of the whole body of public
sentiment of the country touching all
matters affecting the industrial
world, a man OF wisdom and under
standing, of broader vision than To-
cal or sectional conditions; and it is
because he has measured up fully to
his obligations and opportunities that
he has an influence far beyond the
importance of the district and State
he represents. The briefest reference
to some of the measures passed by
Congress under his guidance will af-
ford the best and most striking proof
of his industry and influence. Set
down to his credit as constructive
statesman of the better sort:
1.-The Lever Agricultural Ex-
tension Act providing for nation
wide system of instruction for the
farming population in agriculture
and home economics outside of the
schools and colleges.
2.-The Cotton Futures Act
sometimes called the Smith-Lever
Act-providing for the regulation of
contracts of sale of cotton for fu-
ture delivery in such way as to make
the exchange reflect the value of
spot cotton.
= 3.-The Federal Warehouse Act
permitting the establishment of a
system of warehouses licensed by the
Federal authorities for the storage of
staple agricultural products, such as
cotton, grain, wool, tobacco and pro-
viding a uniform receipt for the pro-
ducts so stored that will be negotia-
BILE throughout the United States and
afford all farmers a perfectly sound
basis of credit for the economical
conduct of their business.
4.-The Cotton Standards Bill,
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1916-07-19

which has been reported from the
committee but has not yet passed the
House, providing for the proper
classification of cotton and the adop-
ton of standard of grading that
would be Of the largest value in both
interstate and foreign trading.
5.-The creation of the Office of
markets and Rural Organization in
department of agriculture is due to
the legislative initiative of Mr.. Lever
and is rightly regarded as one of the
most important functions of the de-
partment of agriculture and incalcul-
able economic value to both producer
and consumer. It can be claimed
that Mr.. Lever is the originator Of
this new method of regulating pro-
duction and prices so that by the dis
semination of accurate information
as to the state of the market, the
range of prices, the relation of acre
age to consumption, "the regional
and local adaptation of crops and
crop varieties" and other conditions
affecting advanced agriculture there
would result what Secretary Hous-
ton has described as the "stabiliza-
ton of production" which would be
followed, naturally, by the stabiliza-
ton Of prices.
These are not by any means all the
constructive and remedial legislative
measures with which Mr.. Lever has
been actively identified. AS mem
ber of the joint committee on rural
credits he took a notable part in
framing the rural credits bill which
assures the financial independence of
the American farmer, or at least
gives him the chance to employ his
own resources in his own business
without dependence upon the favor
of the agencies through which he has
been permitted to operate in the
past. 49,.
1t was while this measure was un-
der consideration in the House that
Mr.. Lever made short speech which,
in the opinion of the chairman of
the committee in charge of the bill,
saved the situation at critical point.
1t was through the influence of Mr..
Lever with the secretary of agricul-
ture and the President, that the Pres
ident consented to the provision in
the bill allowing s6,000,000 deposits
in the farm loan banks to meet de-
faulting interest and principle, and it
was this provision that saved the
rural credits system. ..,.
Mr.. Lever has always taken a deep
interest in the good roads movement
and the good roads bill which finally
passed both Houses Of Congress was
built upon the plant Of the Lever ag-
ricultural bill in the respect that it
establishes close copartnership be-
tween the Federal and State agencies
in the organization and administra-
ton of the service. It was because of
his great influence in the House and
the confidence of the leading men Of
both parties in his good faith that,
although he is not a member of the
committee on roads, Mr.. Lever was
