Are YOU a Bond Holder?

No longer do we enviously
whisper to our buddies as we pass
our wealthy brother-"there goes
bloated bond-holder" If we did
we'd have no time to say anything
else, for all Of us are in the bond
holding class now.
But are we bond-HOLDERS?
There were 25,oOo,o0O total sub
scriptions TO the four Liberty
Loans issued by the United States
Government. This probably means
that there are now at least TO-
100000 Americans who know
what bond is, and where, and
how to buy one.
We wish we could say that 49,
100000 Americans we're bond
HOLDERS, but that will not be
true as long as any of us merely
buy Liberty Cor other) Bonds only
to sell them at the first pinch" or
exchange them for speculative
hazards.
Yet there's a tremendous en-
enlargement in the situation. The
bond-iield is no longer sterile or
fa,low-it has been cultivated and
plowed and is in better-t han-ever
shape for real, constructive SOW
ing.

SEED CRUSHERS AND
FARMERS CONFER

Columbia, Sept. 5.-At the meet
ing of the crushers, seed dealers and
farmers, held in Craven Hall today
at the call of Commissioner Of Agri-
culture Harris, the seed situation was
pretty thoroughly discussed. A call
of the roll showed seventeen farmers,
four seed dealers and forty-four
crushers present.
Mr.. Cassels, Of Alabama, formerly
with the cottonseed division Of the
food administration in Washington,
was present and suggested working
basis upon which farmers and crush
ers could get together.
With Mr.. Harris as chairman there
were representing the farmers on the
committee, L. D. Jennings and w.
Dabbs, of Sumter; representing the
dealers, C. C. McAlilly, Of Chester,
and E. W. Abel, Of Saluda; represent
ing the crushers, J. J. Lawton, Of
Hartsville, and Russell Acree, Of
Darlington.
1t was agreed that the working cost
figured by the food administration
last year, of $3.50 per ton, be al
lowed again this year; that 81 per
ton, the same freight, be allowed this
year, and that the profit to the mill
be calculated at per cent of the
gross returns from the products from
a ton of seed.
The committee figured per cent
o the present gross products for the
green condition of the cotton seed
now going to the mills in arriving at
that price and before calculating the
mills profit. Based upon today's
quotations Of the products the price
per ton Of seed was fixed at $40 in
car lots for prime sound seed at ship
pers' points, and SGT per ton for wa
gon seed, So per ton being the COM
mission allowed dealers same as last
the mills was So flat per ton, which
in many instances did not material
ize, owing to failure Of the admins
tration to provide a market for hulls
and linters at the stabilized price.
crushers wished a rate of 6 per cent
and the farmers on the committee
finally agreed to 5 per cent rate,
which on today's market figures is
about $3.50 profit per ton. Should
prices go down the profit would be
less; should they go up the profit
would be more. In both instances the
farmers would get more or less, as
the case might be.

the game laws, be devoted to the up
building of the De La Howe School,
in Mccormick County. This school,
which is now operated and controll-
ed by the state, has 1000 acres of
very fine land, much of it in original
forest. Mr.. Gibbes' plan would be
to give the money derived from the
hunters licenses to this school for
the purpose of improving the prop
erty and providing for a larger num-
Der of scholarships each year, and to
establish on the place a great game
sanctuary, where all kinds Of game
and birds still extinct in the State is
safe from molestation. He thinks
such a game sanctuary would pro-
vide a safe and desirable breeding
ground, and would result in prevent
ing many varieties Of birds from be-
coming extinct. He would forbid
all hunting on the place, except that
the pupils in the school might hunt
rabbits and squirrels in season. Gov.
Cooper is inclined to think well of
the suggestion and may incorporate
it in his next message to the legisla-
ture.
The plantation upon which the
school is located was bequeathed to
the public for school for poor chill
dren more than 100 years ago by DR..
John De La Howe, a native of France
who settled in Abbeville County a.
long with many other Huguenot ref
ugees. The school was operated for
many years by self-perpetuating
board of trustees, and, while it has
p1ospered at times, has often suf-
fered from Encouragement and 9TH
er causes. Several years ago the leg
islature took over the school and is
now responsible for its operation and
maintenance. The school is open to
limited number of poor boys and
girls who desire an education which
will fit them for farm life, and if the
plan suggested by Mr.. Gibbes is a.
dopted the school can be made Of
much greater usefulness without an
increased drain upon the funds de-
rived from State taxes, and at the
same time a game sanctuary, which
is badly needed, can be secured"

UNDERWoOD'S PLAN
FOR THE RAILROADS

Washington, Sept. 5.-Establish-
ment of governmental commission
or board with powers to fix both rail-
road wage scales and transportation
was advocated in the Senate today
by Senator Underwood, Of Alabama,
a Democratic member of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission.
Without disclosing whether he fav-
ored the Interstate Commerce Com
mission as the proposed tribunal, or
discussing the Cummins bills plan to
prohibit strikes and lockouts Of en-
ployes, Senator Underwood said the
interests of the public, Of capital and
of railroad employees require such a
plan. It is clearly within the right
of Congress, he declared, to create an
agency to determine wages as well as
rates.
"Men will not STRIKE" said the Ala
bama Senator, ~against the just de-
cisiens of the government. After a
fair determination Of the controver-
sy by an impartial tribunal, public
sentiment will force the contending
parties to accept the verdict render
ed as final 1t must be done in the
interest of the men involved, the in
dustry Of the people and the peace
of the nation"
the rights of the whole people against
The tribunal he proposed, Senator
Underwood continued, must have
the authority AMI power to protect
the recurrence of strikes and lock-
outs" Disturbances Of transporta-
ton, he said, affects the whole pub
lie and therefore railroad employees
owe obligations in their action differ
ent from those in private industry.
But Ono Way Out.
"There is but one way out, in my
Judgment" he continued, "and that
is to appoint a tribunal with the
power to adjust these matters"
which has the time to consider and
the opportunity to know the facts.
Such tribunal must not only have
the power and be prepared to do
what is right and just by the labor
employed on the railroad but must
have authority and power to see that
property is not confiscated by its de-
cisions, for, should you confscate
the property of the transportation
companies you would break down
the channels of transportation as
effectively as you would break them
down in a strike with the resultant
injury to the people. A tribunal of
this kind must also have the author
ity and opportunity to consider the
rights Of the shippers and travellers
who in the last analysis will bear any
