With a single roar from the "Old

The vote came at the end Of a
historic session OF the chamber dur
ing which the government had been
severely heckled.
The premier intimated that he
would support England on the ques-

I desire to make the follow ing statement of facts. During the months of January, February, March and April, of this year. l devoted a part of my time to service as Police man of Fayetteville, Ark, being em- ployed by Mr w 4. Gregg, and MT A. (. Cruse. It was understood that I should devote only part of my time to this work and for this service l received for the month of January, the sum of S15.00 and for the month of February the sum of S1G.00, both sums being paid to me by MT. Gregg For the months of March and April I received the sum of S12.50 for each of these two months. These pay ments being made to me by Mr. A. C. Cruse
 I never at any time drew or cashed the warrants that were drawn by the City to cover this service for the months mentioned I did not even know that warrants were drawn, nor in whose name tlcy were !rowr, until these reports were circulated and the controversy arose concerning them
 The records kept by the City Clerk speak fer themselves and are open to the inspection of the public.
 In making this statement simply desire to exonerate myself without casting reflection on any one.
 Respectfully,

TRANSPORTATION |S
 HEAVILY OvERTAXED
souTH THIS YEAR FACES A GIT. LAYTON MORE CRITICAL
 SINCE CIVIL WAR.

By W C. Lassetter, Director AgricuI-
 tural Extension Division, University
 of Arkansas.
 The South this year faces a situa- ton more critical than any since the Civil War Having for many years depended upon other sections of thl country to furnish these food supplies. and having built up its system of az riculture on that as basis, the South this year finds transportation facili- ties of the country heavily over-tax- ed and therefore faces a threatened shortage of the facilities for bringing into the South the food and feedsturs needed to support itself under the old system of agriculture.
 For many years the agricultural leaders of the Southern States have been urging the production of home supplies of food and feed stuffs as q matter of farm economy. Today the production of home supplies of food and feed stuffs becomes imperative ae a matter of necessity
 Something of the seriousness of the situation that~ now confronts tte South may be seen when we consider the magnitude of our transportation problems. The Extension Division is in receipt of information from the War Department which shows that merely to move an army of 80,00C troops once required 6.269 cars or 566 trains pulled by 366 engines and operated by 3s6 crews. Today We have twenty times S0,0o0 men in the United States armies and 10 move these troops one time would require 7.320 extra trains, extra en zines and extra crews. These fig. ures refer only to railway equipment required to move such an army one time
 We are fully aware Of the fact that fGod and feed are required 70 supper |. mics and their equipment II is estimated by the Department of Agri- culture that S5.216 carloads of food will be required for the maintenance of the present army for one year. and that 96 GA cars will be required i0 move the feed and for the tfaHsperta- ton required for army animals for one year.
