RELIEF MEASURE.
House AppIOpTiateS Amount Aid to Be
Sent European People, Ger
mans Excepted

Washington, Jan. 13.-Appropria-
ton of 100000 for famine re-
lief in Europe outside of Germany,
was approved tonight by the house,
which passed the administration
measure after it's enactment had been
urged anew today by President Will
son as the only effective means of
combating the westward spread of
Bolshevism. The bill now goes to the
senate, where its early passage is
planned.
Party lines were effaced in the
house debate and vote, and despite
energetic demands by opponents of
the bill for more specific informa-
ton regarding the proposed expen-
diture and criticism of the president,
Herbert C. Hoover and Vance Nc
Cormick, chairman of the war trade
board, a special rule reported by the
rules committee was adopted and af-
terward the bill was passed, 240 to
70.
The only amendment accepted was
one by Representative Sherley, in
charge of the measure, which per-
mits use of part Of the fund for re-
lief in countries contiguous to Eu-
rope. This would make it possible
to aid the Armenians and other suf-
fering peoples in the near east.
President Wilson's urgent appeal
that the appropriation be authorized
to aid the contamination Of peace,
was sent to Senator Martin and Rep
resentative Sherley, chairman of the
congressional appropriations COM
mittee, and was read on the floor Of
the house by Mr.. Sherley. 1t was
supplemented by a report to the
State Department from Henry D.
White, republican member Of the
American Peace Commission. Both
messages said the problem Of supply
ing food to the distressed peoples re-

HUBERT WILSON
DIES IN FRANCE

Mr.. A. ]. (Bud) Wilson, residing
several miles east of Dresden, re-
ceived telegraphic information from
the War Department at Washington
on last Tuesday notifying him of the
death in France Of his son, Hubert
Wilson. The date of the young mans
death was not given, but it stated he
died of solar pneumonia in France.
Hubert Wilson was in the mail SER
vice when he volunteered for over
seas duty with the American army.
AS he made a good citizen, faith
full mail clerk-he also made SPLEEN
did soldier. There is nothing against
his record, either in private or mill

young man and his aged father deep
ly regret his untimely death.
May the God in heaven comfort
and soothe the wounded, bleeding
hearts.

There is universal excitement
among tobacco growers, tesulting
from the high prices paid for num-
Der of crops during the past week.
1t is reported that some growers in
the northern section of the county
have sold to Fulton buyers for as
much as $24 around, while others
got $21.50 in that section.
Buyers from Dresden have iex-
perienced some difficulty in buy
ing, owing to the excitement and
high prices demanded by the grow
ers. and some Of the local buyers
tell us their purchases during the
week have been light.
Many sold their crops two weeks
ago at the then prevailing price OF
SIG and $18. They were satisfied
with those prices and gave out the
word Immediately that they expected
a greatly increased acreage for 1919.
This will, doubtless, be true through,
out the county, provided the present
prices continue, and there is good
luck with plants and favorable set
ting seasons.
Up to this time local receivers
have gotten in only small portion
of theft purchases, but they have
their plants in readiness for receiv-
ing in large quantities.

By special invitation, Lieutenant
Brooks, of Irrelevant, was a guest on
Monday at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
G. W. Jeter, on Depot street, where
many who had read of the young
hero's deeds of daring called and ex-
tended congratulations. Lieutenant
Brooks was accompanied to Dresden
by his mother, Mrs. Argo.
Lieut.. Brooks was in some of the
hardest fighting engaged in by AM
erican troops. He received seven
wounds in all and went over the top
nine times. He was in the fighting
at Chateau Thierry and Belleau
Wood. He was in the battle in which
Jerry Jeter was wounded and while
carrying his severely wounded lieu
tenant off the field passed Jerry,
but when he went back to rescue
Jerry, who had been shot down,
young Jeter was gone, having been
carried off the field by comrade.
During his short visit here of three
hours, Lieut. Brooks related many
interesting events of the carnage in
France. He told of the cruel and
inhuman treatment of the French
and Belgian people by the Hun, of
the devastation of the country and
related how glad these stricken peo-
pie were to see the American army
come to their rescue.

THE LAND BANKS
LOAN $4,000.

The Federal Land Banks of Weak
ley county loaned to the farmers of
the county during the past year the
sum of about $150,000.
While this may not appear an enor-
nous sum of money, yet it is when
one considers that these banks have
been in operation only about year
two of them less than year. And
all this money goes to the farmer for
improvements on his farm and for
the purpose of purchasing farming
lands, the rate of interest being low,
with privilege of annual payments
on the principal. 1t seems to many
thoughtful men that if the renter or
non-land owner ever expects to own
a home he had better purchase now.
Land values are climbing daily.

FIRST FISCAL REFORM
BILLS Up IN SENAIE
Tax Rate Of IS Per Cent PrupOs-
ed for Tennessee. Bill
Names EquaEzsIs

Nashville, Tenn, Jan. 13.-Gov-
ernor-elct Roberts does not plan to
have an individual leader, either in
the senate or house to introduce and
champion the administration meas
ures. That is, unless the chairman
of the finance committees of the
house and senate can be looked upon
in this position.
The first two administration bills,
forerunners in fiscal reform legisla-
ton, were introduced in the state
senate today, and it is the intention
of friends of the bills to insist on
their enactment without unnecessary
delay.
The first bill is Senate Bill No.
II, and the other is Senate Bill No.
70, and Senator Haston introduced
both.
The first bill read constitutes the
Tennessee railroad commission, the
state board of equalization, with
power sufficient to bring about equi-
ty and fairness in the assessment of
all property in the state. There is
provision for whatever assistance is
needed to properly carry out the di-
rections Of the statute, in the mat
ter of equalization Of assessments.
The act gives the governor the
power of review of acts Of the board
and also provides other executive re-
sponsibility. The present powers of
the railroad commission is enlarged,
increased and supplemented. The
members of the board must take the
oath Of office before the comptroller
within 80 days. The board must meet
the first Monday in July, 1919, and
equalize the assessment Of all prop
erty in Tennessee. 1t will have the
right to employ tax statisticians and
assistants, and take whatever steps
are required in equalizing assess
ments
The tax rate bill, Senate Bill No.
10, provides that the tax rate, or
state tax shall be 65c on 500 of
taxable property in the state. AS
the total assessment is increased, it
provides that the tax rate be re-
duced proportionately. The present
rate, or the rate which has been in
effect for the past two years, is the
same as provided in this bill.
It is predicted that this reform in
equalization will add many thous-
ands of dollars to the assessed valu-
alton of property in the state, and
friends of the measure say that
lower tax rate is almost certainty
with this new law enforced. These
bills passed the first reading in the
senate and they will be given prompt
consideration.

SEVEN MORE
STATES SET NEW
PROHI RECORD

Chicago, Jan. 14.-Ratification to-
day of the prohibition constitutional
amendment by seven states brought
the number which has ratified to 30
Favorable action by SO states is nee
essary to incorporate the amendment
in the constitution.
The states which took this action
today were North Carolina, Arkan-
sas, Kansas, Illinois, Indiana, Cali
fornia and Alabama.
Ratification by six more states
would make the whole country bone
dry, unless the distillers are success
full in proving in court that the laws
of Is of these states require a vote
of the people for ratification.
Seven states in one day is the high
record since the process of ratifica-
ton began. The distillers' committee
recently appointed to fight national
prohibition elected permanent or
ganization here today and announced
the line on which an attack through
the courts will be made.
The resolutions adopted stated
that Is of the states which have al
reayd ratified the prohibition amend
ment, or are about to do so, have
laws which require referendum and
provided that legal steps should be
taken to compel reference Of the
amendment in these states to the
people.

COURT KNOCKS
! OUT LIQUOR IN
DRY STATES

Washington, Jan. 13.-The Su-
preme Court held today that the
Reed "bone-dry" prohibition amend
ment prohibits interstate transpor-
tation into dry states Of intoxlcat-
ing liquor for beverage purposes
even when intended for personal
use.
AS interpreted by the court, the
law nullifies state statutes permit
ting limited amounts of liquor to be
brought in for personal use.
Justice McReynolds, in a dissent
ing opinion, concurred in by Justice
Clark, declared the Reed amendment
was not an interstate commerce reg
ulatory measure. but direct inter-
meddling with a states affairs and
beyond federal power.
The opinion was rendered in pro-
ceedings brought by the govern
ment under the Reed amendment
against Dan Hill, who was charged
with taking a quart of liquor into
West Virginia, as the state laws per
NIT. The lower court dismissed the
Indictment, holding the liquor had
not been transported in interstate
commerce within the meaning of the
law, because it was intended for
Hills personal use and not for
trade. This decision was reversed
today and the case remanded.

WEAKLEY COUNTY
is FAR BEHIND

Weakley county was asked to
contribute about $4,000 to the fund
for the relief of the starving Ar
menians, and the Enterprise learns
that the county is far behind in sub
scribing her quota.
This is an urgent appeal. Thous-
ands are starving, and their being
allowed to starve when we of Amer
lea are so rich and prosperous will
surely be charged up against US in
the day Of final reckoning.
See your district chairman and
hand him liberal contribution. If
you cannot find him, then send your
donation to Mr.. Harrell Moran, at
the Dresden Bank, who will issue you
a receipt and see that the money gets
to the proper authorities.
Do this today
