GOSSETT PLANS WORK
FOR RELIEF OF STATE
Fuel Administrator Returns From
Washington After Conference
With Omcials.

Anderson. Nov. 1.-B. b. Gossett.
federal fuel administrator for South
Carolina, has returned from Wash
ington. where he conferred with the
national fuel administration. He is
now in Columbia to confer with the
State authorities about perfecting
an organization for the State. He
stated today that he will appoint an
advisory board. composed OF one
representative from each congress
sional district. In addition to this
he will appoint a committee com
posed of three citizens for each city
having 10000 or more inhabitants,
and will appoint committee COM
posed of three citizens for each
county. These committeeman must
be men who are not directly or indi-
rectly connected with politics. They
like the State administrator, will
serve without any compensation. A
State fuel administration Office will
be opened here in the Anderson
Mattison office building, and corps
Of assistants and clerks will be en-
gagged.
Requisitions for fuel relief must
be made through the local commit
tees, who will make inventories OF
the present supply Of fuel, and VINO
will make estimates from best OBJ
tainable information Of the con-
sumption of fuel in the past, and es-
innate the needs for immediate re-
lief. When these committees report
to the State administrators he will
make drafts for fuel on the national
administration.
Mr. Gossett says that he can not
begin to give relief until he perfects
his organization, and wishes to i'm
press upon the people the fact that
they must not make acquisitions to
him direct, but to the local commit
tees to be appointed. On his return
to Anderson he found batch of
kilograms and letters calling for re-
lief in practically every section of
the State. These communications
will be referred to the local commit
tees for investigation and report.
The organization will be perfect
ed by the end of the week and relief
will be given as rapidly as possible.

land. After awhile Andrew and
Robert were exchanged for some
prisoners taken by the Americans
and the two boys again were re-
united with their anxious mother.
Roberts wound had never been
dressed by his inhuman jailers, and
he died soon after reaching home
the neglected injury having so worn
him down that he was unable to
rally from an attack OF disease
which had been brought on by his
imprisonment.
The British prison had been full
of smallpox. and Andrew came down
with it soon after reaching home
but recovered. AS soon as Andrew
was strong enough, he and his
mother set out to carry much-needed
food and clothing to the Crawfords
who had been confined in a prison
ship at Charleston. But the poor
woman, worn out with trials and
privations. died on the journey. and
was buried by her son just outside
the enemy's lines before the city.
At the age of IA Andrew Jackson
found himself alone in the world.
His eldest brother. Hugh, had lost
his life at the battle OF Stono two
years before. Robert was dead and
now his mother had fallen victim
to the hardships of the war.
The boy would have continued
his soldiers life had not the war of
the revolution come to a glorious
end about this time with the capture
of Lord CORVALLIS and his army.
Peace being declared, Andrew re-
sumed his studies and determined to
become a lawyer. At the age OF 10
he was admitted to the bar. In af-
ter years he became a soldier again
and great general. He fought
many battles with the Indians, and
with the British in our second war

German potash beds of Saxony, Han over and the basin along the right bank of the Rhine, the development of the Alsatian beds was only allowed to proceed slowly and cautiously.
 From the time of their discovery in 1904 up to 1908 only about 12O sound ings were made. Up till 1913 a total of 16O soundings had been made. These however, established definitely that the Alsatian deposits equal if not ex ceed both in size and purity those of Germany. At the current price of potash in 1909, these deposits repre- sent total value of over 12,0O0. .0O0.- 900 dollars.
 Germany saw to it that the develop ment of these new beds was restrained Tn such a manner as not to affect the price of the potash drawn from her own deposits. A total of 1O6 conces- sions were made for the exploitation of the Alsatian beds. Twenty-eight of these are in the hands of a Null house company backed by French and Alsatian capital. The other 78 con sessions are now in the hands of a German concern, although a small DOT tion of the capital stock of this is also owned by French and Alsatian capi- talists.
 The exploitation of these concess- ions and the output of potash however was at all times kept at a minimum. As a consequence, while the output from the old German beds in 1913 was 1 100000 tons that of the Alsation beds was only 22,000 tons. Yet com petent engineers have established that the Alsatian beds could easily equal in output the German ones.
 In order to leave no possibility for the development of the Alsatian beds to affect the price of potash by a sud- den and immense increase in the world supply, Germany forced all of the peo- pie owning potash concessions to enter into a syndicate. A central commits sion then received all of the demands and orders for potash, distributed them amongst the various producers, and fixed common price thus prevent ing all competition and thus exercising strangle hold on the agricultural de-

Nelopment Of the entire world.
 This monopoly as a matter of fact has affected in the most serious de- gree large number of other world industries besides that of agriculture. A total of 87 to 88 per cent of the worlds potash goes into the making of fertilizers. The remainder is used Tn the producing of caustic potash, ni- trate and chloride of potash, alumni. cyanide, bromide and ioduret of pot ash. All industries employing these chemicals suffer likewise from the German world monopoly.
 It is only by the return of Alsace and Lorraine to France and the dis tribution thus of the two great potash beds of the world between two com peting nations that this worlds mon- opoly can be broken up. Its existence explains Germany's willingness to re- store Belgium but not to restore Al sace and Lorraine.

Little Rock, Nov. 8.-Soldiers in camp at Camp Pike are to have the benefit of instruction by veteran French officers, members of the Mis- sion Militaire Francaise, who have been assigned by their government to that special duty. The five officers assigned to Camp Pike reported yes- terday and paid their respects to Gov. Brough. They are Capt. Len Monta- land, It. Jean Coquet, It. Andre Se- gard and It. De Sault. All of them have been in many of the historic en- agreements at the front and each bears the scars of wounds inflicted by the enemy.
