AS DIVISION COMMANDER
Feels He Has Served in That Capac-

ILy Long Enough.
The following from the current is
sue of the Arlington Courier will be
read with interest by General Hors-

General w. J. Horsley informs the
Courier that he has rendered his
resignation, effective January list
next, as commander of the Southern

ton by feeling that he has served
in that capacity long enough-five
years-and that the honor should
be passed on to other veterans. He
was not an applicant for reelection

sent, and because of the bestowal of
this honor he feels it his duty to con-
tinue on until the end of the year"

Federal Reserve
Bank Raises
Interest Rates

VI ASdINGT0N, Dec. 12.--Action
of the New York Feceral Reserve
Bank yesterday in raising interest
rates was said by Federal Reserve
Board officials to be another step in
the campaign to curb speculation.
The board has been using every means
within its power to check speculation
during the reconstruction period, it
was asserted, and therefore the New
York banks interest advance has it's
"wholehearted cooperation"
The board has been handicapped in
it's efforts to aid in staDIlizing market
values because of the interest rates
paid by the treasury in its heavy bor-
rowings. it was explained. But the
improvement shown in the general f.
nancial situation has permitted the
treasury to dispose or It's last two IS
sues Of certificates of Indebtedness

freer hand in its fight against spec.
ulation.

James Merges
With Hamilton

CHATTANOOGA, Dec. l2.-The
voters of James county IN an election
called for the purpose yesterday vot-
ed to annex the entire county to Ham
ilton. The election was provided by
an act of the last Legislature and the
question has been before the people
for nearly year. Certain politicians
of Hamilton county, fearing that the
annexation Of the county, which gen
orally goes republican, would swing
the balance Of power in Hamilton
county to the republicans, have sought
every means to prevent the election
including an injunction filed before
Chancellor Lawrence Stewart, but
which was dismissed. The annexation
means a population Of over five thous-
and added to Hamilton county.
Advocates of annexation have
claimed that on account of the small
population it has been impossible for
the county government to properly
function and as result the roadwayf
are in an impossible condition; the
iail at 0oltewah unsafe and the up
keep of prisoners who nave to be con
fined in Hamilton county jail, very
costly.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Dec l2.--tBy

made in their use for business pur-
poses. Men who have used them as.
cert "they can't be beat"
One enterprising company manu-
cturing air machines has already es-
tablished salesrooms--or rather fields
near here and are reported to be
doing big business.
The aIrpane has been brought for
{ bly, 20 the attention or the oil and
cattle men Of this state during the
past few months on two occasions
when they were used in emergencies
and proved reliable.
Col. II. l.. Burgess, prominent cat
eman Of Chelsea, Okla, was slated
10 conduct shorthorn sale in Krem-
lin, but missed train connections at
Fl Reno. Roads in this section OF the
country are notoriously bad and rain
on this occasion had made them worse.
The colonel, however, telephoned To
Oklahoma City for an airplane, which
was soon on its way to III Reno.
The trip was made without mishap
and cattlemen soon became interested
1 in the aerial mode o. travelling.
Oil men have stated their inten-
tions Of using airplanes for scouting
purposes and for emergencies which
frequently occur in the oil game, re-
quiring short but speedy movement.

Garfield Resigns;
Mifed Over Coal
Strike Settlement

WASHINGTON, Dec 12.-Fuel
administrator Garfeld's resignation
was last night in the nands of Presi-
dent Wilson, given because he disa-
grees in principle with the coal strike
settlement proposal arranged by the
government and the mine workers
union.
DR.. Garfield himse.s refused last
night to confirm, den~ or discuss the
report, but at the white house it was
said that personal letter from him
had been transmitted to the Presi-
dent late in the afternoon.
Men close to the AueI administra-
tor understand that he believes that
the work of the commission author
lied upder the settlement to be made
up of one coal mine operator, coal
miner and third person named to
represent the public will result in an
increase in the price of coal to the
consumer. Against this form of a
settlement, DR.. Garfield has been un-
alterably opposed. 1t has been learn
ed on good authority that he took no
part in the negotiations with the mine
workers union chiefs during the last
week, and that though informed and
consulted after their initiation, the
terms laid out as finally accepted con.
travene his conception Of the main
principle involved.
