New York, Jan. 29.-Appropria-
tions totalling $197,500 for negro edu-
cation in the South were announced

tlon Board, the money coming from

600 to $500 are given to smaller
institutions, together with $4,000 to
be devoted to instruction among ne

pleasures is hopeless. Theref fore; ia
is far from logical TO consider the
sorcalled pleasure ear Of today as fan|
added luxury. u s,sSs
IL pro oduction increases at the aver,
age rate maintained for the past Ave;
years which is unlikely, due to,
greater manufacturing prob and
to inability of the selling and distrib-
.utiye branches to keep $ pace with:
greatly augmented ,nanufa cturing
volume the point Of Ssaturation will
not be- reached for Ave, six Or even Il
seven years. And some Of. the leaders
in the industry predict that it will be
a matter Of ten or twelve years. \.
Il All signs point to continued de-
velopnient for several years to come
for just how long it is difficult to
say, but as in many other new fields,
limitations and curtailment Of expan.
sion, arbitrarily predicted, are merely,
evidence Of a shortened vision or un-
familiarity with all of the facts. (.
, 1t is true that materials and labor
are more expensive and increasingly
hard to secure. This condition is not
serious, nor is OF likely to be. The
makers of medium and high-priced
cars overcome the difficulty by an adj
vance in their selling prices. The
manufacturers Of low-priced cars
build in much greater quantities, are
protected by contracts until the end
of. the automobile year, July, 1917,
and are able to- absorb additional ex-
pense by spreading it out over great
number of units and by increasing
their manufacturing efficiency.

STARCH FROM POTATOES
Government Experts Explain Process
to Columbians.

Columbia, Jan. 29.--About q score
of business men Of Columbia gather
ed in the rooms of the Chamber of
Commerce today and heard DR.. w.
W. Long, head of the federal demon
stration forces in this State, and B.
Rember, a chemist of Philadelphia,
tell how starch can be made from
sweet potatoes and of the desirability
of having such plant in Columbia.
After hearing the proposition the
meeting named COMMITTEES of five
to look into the financial side of the
matter and see whether the neces-
sary capital for such plant $4,000,
can be raised here. The committee
consists of B. F.. Taylor, president of
the Seed Crush hers Association; D.
F. Efird, secretary Of the State Fair;
A. P. Burgess, farmer of Fort
Motto; j.. E. Timberlake and A. E.
King, brokers, and e. D. Sompayrac,
an architect.
1t 81 estimated that an $4,000
plant would have capacity Of con-
suming 4,500 bushels of potatoes a
day, which should bring profit of
half cent pound or $3.50 per day,
twelve pounds of starch being made
from the one bushel Of potatoes.
The greater part of the starch used
in this country has been coming from
Germany but that supply has been
cut off and Germany will turn to rye
for her export crop after the war and
use potatoes at home, illustrating the
big market for starch.
The meeting here is one Of series
to be held throughout the State.

According to telephone reports reaching here from Candle today, the Fftes dredge was partially destroyed by fire on the nigth of July 20, and will probably be out of commission for the remainder of the year at least. The reports reaching Candle indicate that the greater part of the superstructure was destroyed but the gantry and bucket line were not seri- ously damaged so far as known.
 The fire occurred some time between 10 and II D. m. and, as there was no one on board. the dredge not being operated at nights, the fire was en- abled to gain great headway before fire fighting measures were initiat- ed. A man living some distance down the creek is reported to have seen smoke issuing from the dredge about 10 o'clock, but, thinking that the crew was at work, failed to give the alarm. Later on a large volume of smoke was seen issuing from the house and he then decided to give the alarm. The crew was aroused but 1t was then too late to do a great deal to- ward quenching the flames.

MINNEOLA, N. Y., Aug. 2.-Plung- ing downward through the air from an elevation of more than eight hun dred feet, Captain Ralph Taylor, the commander of the training section of the national aviation corps, was all most instantly killed while flying over the training fields today.
 Sergeant Thomas Bell, was in the machine with Capt. Taylor, was for tunate enough to escape with his life but suffered a broken jaw and in- ternal injuries from which he may die. The cause of the accident is not definitely known but Is supposed to have been due to Taylor in some manner losing control of the plane, which was observed to dash sideways and then. plunge swiftly downward.

In communication to local par ties under date of July T. Andrew J. Stone, promoter of the Sawtooth power plant project, states that the failure to proceed with the power development scheme during the pres
 ent season is due to reasons, the chief of which Is that war conditions
 have forced the prices for steel and
 copper commodities to almost prohibi-
 tive prices. The company will em-
 ploy great deal of steel and copper and equipment made from steel and copper. If purchased at present prices
 would represent invested capital on
 which interest would have to be paid for all time. It was. therefore, deem- ed wise by the. hackers Of sthe- project to refrain from saddling the plant with an excessive burden of debt by purchasing equipment at the present tlme.
 htNA iihIpi it'och "''f' that, in the event or the company going ahead this year. the shipments of machinery, equipment, etc. would have approximated 25.O0O tons, ton mage of such dimensions that only by securing special carriers could if be transferred to this section. MT. Stone states the company, after lengthy correspondence on the cub- ject, was unable to find available ton age from the Pacific coast to Bering sea. even at exhorbitant prices In short. the war has completely upset every calculation for the time being. stone states. however that it is fully planned to go ahead with the enter prise and the company packers are hopeful that the coming year may be more proritious. He declares that there is no question of the enter prise going through and the delay is due to no other reason than those abve stated.

Sensational reports of battles between
guardsmen and spies came to light mere TO.
day, despite close censorship and refusal
of the military authorities to talk. These
include meager reports of the killing of a
plotter by guardsmen, the wounding OF four
guardsmen and three plOtters and the
court -martial of several supposed spies.
Public anger was aroused as the attacks
on guardsmen became known.
Guardsmen yesterday frustrated an ap-
parent plot to blow up the Washburn-
Crosby flour mills and the st. Paul Rail-
road bridge at Mendoza. near here. A
stranger seized at the Washburn-Crosby
mills carried a suitcase containing fifteen
sticks of dynamite and two bottles OF nitro
plycerin He was said to have been taken
TO the Fort Smelling guardhouse and with
others to the Federal Penitentary at Fort
Leavenworth.
1t is reported another prowler was shot

itarv officials refused comment, St
paul sentry carried a bullet in one leg to-
day after being fired on from ambush.
rrhree ruardsmen and three civilians are in
the Fort Smelling Hospital as result or
frustrated plots.
The Washington correspondent OF the 81.

sidering placing Minneapolis under martial
law as a result of the attacks on guards
men and the many incendiary hres since
the break with Germany.

gorgeous decorations everywhere. confined

| been made to receive them, and quite a
! number of volunteers were obta ined for the
army and navy.
