Washington, Nov. Full credit
for being the pioneer of rural credit,
which system is expected to immense
~ bencf.t the farmers, was given to
Senator Duncan u. Fletcher. of Flor
ida, by Mr. David Lubin, delegate or
the United States to the International
Institute of Agriculture in Rome, Italy,
in his address to the Southern Com
mercial Congress, at it's ninth annual
convention in New York, two weeks
ago.
Senator Fletcher, president of the
Southern Commercial Congress, was
largely instrumental in creating the
sentiment Ii, oughout the United
States for the rural credits system,
DR.. Lubin said, and did more than
any other man 1.-the country to have
the legislation enacted, although the
measure does cot bear his name.

DR.. LuLin

as follows:

Fletcher Credited As Being
Pioneer of Rural Credit

others take up the threads of his
work and receive the credit due to
pioneers. This is mistake. The
pioneer of rural credits for the United
States is the president of the South
en Commercial Congress-Duncan U.
Fletcher. 1t was he who pioneered
the way for the naturalization of
the American Commission of Rural
Credits and for the United States
Commission on Rural Credits, and the
labors of thes commissions paved the
way for rural credits legislation.
Take the present average rate OF
interest on farm loans and compare
it with what it was before Senator
Fletcher took up the rural credits
question; then strike balance and
see what the difference amounts to.
And all this has been saved to the
farmers of America.
1.-THE South should not forget this
great accomplishment of one of her
sons. 1t cannot afford to do so. 1t
would be unjust if it did. And the
time will come when the United
States will remember his work; when
his name will be inscribed on the i'm
perishable pages of history"

German secret agents of the First Reg.

command there are more than 1900
men, by the injection of man dose
poison into each of more than 5000
loaves of bread. Working under the

thoritative source, that had not the

was incinerated in the big iron ovens
In which the ration had been baked,
every vestige of the bread being de-
stroyed, thus removing any danger of
members of the regiment getting hold
of piece of the poisoned bread
through mistake. The big bread ra.
ton of 5000 loaves, weighing pound
and half each, was destroyed by or

practically only on the eve of the de-
parture of the regiment. IF these
