21907 broke all records on April
29th, at 5:15 p. m, by establishing
a record of perhaps a mile minute.
1t required two observers to take his
number-one to see him coming, the
other to see him going. The children
all took to the tall timber, while some
old folks tainted; but the record was
established and only a flying machine
can break it.

This is no "fish story" though we
did catch the incest string of shad
seen this year down at Uncle Joe
Cooter's, on the back-waters of the
dam, last Friday, at least John Su-
song assured us. But that was not
what pleased us most-it was the
magnificent wheat fields seen down
that way. Of course our vernacular
fails us in any attempt to express the
thrill of ecstacy that prevailed our
old corn-fed body at the prospects of
so many hot biscuits for the soldier
boys and ourselves-big, square
thick, brown biscuits! If the farm
ers in that section of our country are
not doing their bit, then we're no
judge. Edgar Link has a field that
will make 80 bushels per acre, and
then it seems like the whole earth
is covered with wheat of like quality.
Uncle Joe Cooter is raising fourteen
acres especially for soldier boys,
while Uncle Black Joe, down on the
same farm, is going to catch fish again
this summer to sell the town fisher
men. We have heard Food Admins
traitor C. W. Allen say that Greene
county would harvest the greatest
of wheat Of any county in the
State, and while we have considered
his usual vast optimism in swallow
ing the statement, we now believe he
told the whole truth. 'Rah for the
Greene county farmer!

Our friend Milburn believes in
the fur f1y-and so do we; but
it should fly only from the skunk re-
sponsible for the foul odor. Mayor
Mason makes no claims of infalliabil-
ity-he's human, yet honorable and
sincere to the utmost degree, and he
has more property interests at stake in
our town than many of our citizens.
If the Johnson City man would live
here for a while he would find that
Mayor Mason's hands have been tied
BY the saUe political party that
friend Milburn has been identified
with. His partisan associates injected
politics into our municipal affairs
,wo years ago, since which time the
mayor has played second fiddle. We
rave urged reforms along the same
inc as Mr.. Milburn--especially do
We want reports from our Recorder,
ind all our people have the same raw

in bringing one forth, we
will bless his memory for ever more.

nv discord in the soprano.

CARTER GLASS NOMINATED
FOR MCADOO'S POST
Nominated for Post Which McAdoO
Will Vacate.
WILL RESIGN FROM HOUSE
His Relations With McAdoO Close
and He is Familiar With
Job.

Washington, Dec. o.-Representa-
tive Carter Glass, of Virginia, was
nominated by President Wilson to be
Secretary of the Treasury of the
United States.
At an executive session late Thurs
Gay the senate referred Mr.. Glass
nomination to the senate banking
committee. This is the usual routine
and leaders expect prompt confirma-
tion by the senate.
The nomination, which had been
prepared by President Wilson before
his departure Tuesday night, was sent
in from the White House on word
from Mr.. Glass that he would accept
the post. Mr. Glass, resignation as
member of the House within the next
few days, after eighteen years of
service, vii lnecessltate a special
election to choose successor.
No changes in policy of the treas
ury are to be expected at present,
if at all, Mr.. Glass said. His rela-
tons with Secretary McAdoo have
been very close and he is familiar
generally with treasury affairs
The principal task ahead relates to
the continued financing of the war,
and Mr.. McAdoo already has announc-
cd plans for at least one more large
bond issue in the spring, the bonds
to be of short maturity.
AS to- Railroad Director.
A new director general of railroads
to succeed William G.. McAdoo may
not be named for two weeks or more,
it was said Thursday. The resigna-
tion of Robert S. Lovett, as director
of the railroads division of capital
expenditures, announced, and his in
sistence on going back to his old
duties as chairman of the executive
committee of the Union Pacific, was
considered as having left Mr.. Nc
Adoo without a candidate Immediate
ly at hand to recommend to Presi-
dent Wilson. 1t was stated authori-
tatively that the director general is
row looking about for men whom he
may propose.
Mr.. McAdoo conferred, with his ad-
visory staff of the railroad admins
tratlon concerning proposed plans for
supervising railroads when they are
turned back to provate management.
Two differing plans are understood to
Fave developed among his advisers.
One proposal is to have the railroads
merge into regional groups, with COM
mon operating management to start
and eventually to develop into COM
mon ownership, with the railroads
themselves selecting their regional
managements, in which the govern
ment would be represented.
