Sherman L. Whipple, a Boston
Democrat and noted trial lawyer, has
been invited by the Rules committee
of the House Of Congress to act as
counsel in the peace note "leak" in
vestigation, which it appears will ex-
tend deeply into Wall street stock

until this morning in order to give
counsel and the committee time to
complete arrangements and to pre-
pare for future proceedings. It was
planned to call as the first witness
Mrs. Ruth Thomasson Visconti, the
woman who Thomas w. Lawson says
told him Secretary Tumulty and W.
w. Price, Washington newspaper
man, were beneficiaries Of the alleg-
ed leak. She will be followed by

Bickett's Fayorites in Legislation
Have Been Presented
Raleigh Cor, Jan. 10, Greensboro

News.
Governor Bickett's two constitu-
tlonal paramounts, the tax exemp-
ton of papers and evidences of debt,
given for the purchase of homes, and
the restriction of official tenure to
two successive terms, took a start
through the General Assembly today.
The Farmers union has recorded
itself heartily with Beckett on his
plan to exempt from taxation notes
and mortgages not exceeding $4,000;
but gossip holds her tongue if the
long tenure has displeased Bryan
Grimes, Benjamin Rice Lacy, James
Richard Young, Mitchell Lee Ship
man or Maj. William Alexander
Graham. Neither of these has as
sisted in the framing of the anti-life
tenure act
The measure introduced in the in
terest Of that translation of tenant
!; into landlord" referred to in Cover
nor Bickett's inaugural address, was
presented in the house Thursday
morning bv Representative R. F.
Beasley. The Union county newspa-
/ per man fixes the time that such
papers as are evidence of debt are to
be free from tax at 20 years maxi
mum and five years minimum The
amount shall not exceed $4,000. Its
! purpose is to encourage moneyed
men to extend credit to those seek
ing their own homes and in so do
ing to escape taxation which takes
nearly half the amount allowed by
law.
Governor Beckett advocated this
with great power last week. 1t was
regarded one Of the most move
things suggested in the proposes
program. It did not bring quite S,
much applause, however, as the ref
erence to long tenure in office. Gov
ernor Beckett thought constitutional

Some interesting political gossip
has been heard in Wilmington during
the past few days relative to the
next Congressional campaign in the

furnish an interesting and exciting
contest every two years. 1t is be-

Report has it that Judge Stacy
will shortly resign his office in or

nation for Congress. The gossip is
that if Judge Stacy resigns that an
effort will be made to have Gov

the vacancy. Senator Cranmer was
an applicant for the place at the time
Judge Stacy was appointed by Gov

WHAT PUBLIC LIBRARY HASTO OFFER THE REAL ESTATE MAN AND BUILDER

The 1910 census of occupations shows that there were at that time 922 persons in Birmingham engaged in real estate and In building. Where did these men eve may leave the women out of considera- tioE since there were only five) learn their business? Largely from books.
 How are they to improve their knowl- edge and go forward in their chosen professions? Through experience and through books
 The public library offers a rich field builder. for the literature of real estate is comparatively meager and goes rap idly out of date. However, it touches at all points such subjects as taxation, sys- tems of land registration, salesmanship, mortgages, and housing laws; and on all these there is material available.
 To the real estate man or the builder, should first recommend Scott's "In- creasing Human Efficiency In Business" After that I should not have to recom- mend the other titles listed below. He will come and ask for them because of the enthusiasm he feels surging through his veins.
 Then I should give him-if he is a real estate rnan-Bernards Principles and Problems of Real Estate Valuation" |" Sweetland's 'Tnsurance and Real Estate Accounts" Practical Real Estate Meth ods" by 30 experts, Cameron's "Torrens System" I4indner's "Insurance and Real Estate" Myricks Federal Farm Loan System," Tiedman's Elementary Trea- tise on the American Law of Real Prop efty," and "How to Sell Real Estate At Profit
 Then, when he head read all these and came begging for more I should give him files of the American City and System, where he would read articles such as these: Cards that help sell real estate System, April, 1916); city planning and real estate (American City, volume 12, page 1s9); shall I pay myself rent? (Sys- tenn, volume 2S, page 209). There Is a well known. real estate in- stinct," but there is no builders in- stinct," so the builder must depend more on books, and much more has been pro- vided for him.
