LAW IS VIOLATED IN
FARM LOAN BUSINESS

WASHINGTON, July 3.-Violation Of
the law regarding farm loans was
charged against the federal land banks
"as guided and controlled by the fed
eral farm loan board by Representa-
tive McFadden, Republican, Fennsyl-
vanla, under an extension Of remarks
printed Wednesday in the congression-
al record. He asserted that the re-
uuirement that loans be made only to
resident land owners was d~isregarded
and that dummy deals permit eva
sion of the maximum amount Of n loan
on one farm. He urged that congress
make federal land bank bonds taxable,
which he asserted would enhance the
value of Liberty bonds.
The rulings of the federal farm loan
board show that tenantry is encour-
aged and that practically no r%estric-
ton Is imposed to enforce the intent
OF the law requiring loans to be made
to actual farmers, Representative Me-
Fadden declared, I'm their mad rush
TO secure a large volume Of loans the
federal land banks continuously and
persistently violate the express pro-
visions OF the law by reSorting to sub
terfuges that render them liable to the
censure OF congress and of the courts
While the maximum loan to one per-
son Is $40, 900, Mr.. McFadden said that
lin order to violate" this provision a
farmer can sell an interest to his wife
thus obtaining $4,000 and by taking
in another relative as R temporary part
ner'' they can borrow $40, 900, In this
connection he cited two transactions

TALK ABOUT
ALSATIAN BISHOPS

PARIS, July 3.-The appointment of
the French government of Catholic
bishops for Metz and Strassbourg fur
nished the subject for an animated de-
bate on the governments policy toward
the vatican in the chamber of deputies
today.
M. Demonzie charged that the gov
eminent had engaged in unofficial d.
plomacy with the vatican and Jean Bon
declared the law separating church and
state had been violated. Stephen Pich-
on. foreign minister, explained that the
policy of the government contemplated
the unfolding of the conc6rdat in AL
SAGE and Lorraine and that there was
a true separation Of church and state
in the rest Of France. He said the
bishops were appointed for Metz and
Strassbourg because the clergy which
had given many proofs of friendly senti-
ments toward France had asked that
French bishops succeed the German in
cumbents. Critics of the government
declared they were satisfied with M.

GETS BIG
FUND FOR ROADS.
90 Per Cent of Auto Taxes to
Remain in County Under
Court Decision.

The state highways Of Shelby county
will get between S65, 900 and $4,000 of
the automobile taxes collected in 1918,
according to the decision of the state
supreme court in the state highway bill,
which was handed down Saturday. This
is the entire amount. less 10 per cent.
which will go to the highway commits
sion.
The new state highway bill divides
the automobile taxes $3.50 in each
county; in other words, SO per cent of
the taxes collected from automobiles is
to be expended in the county where col
lected and so per cent in other counties
which derive only small sum from this
collection.
The previous law held that all money
derived from automobile taxes should
be expended in the county where col
lected, except 10 per cent, which was
to go to the state highway commission
for Its maintenance. When the new
state highway law was enacted this
spring by the legislature it was made
retroactive, which meant that Shelby,
which has not yet received the 1918
automobile taxes from the state, would
get only half Of it instead of all, less
the 10 per cen which goes to the state
highway.
The matter was taken to the supreme
court and that portion of the act max
ing the law retroactive, @dividing 1918
taxes equally between the state and
the county where collected in order
that the state could expend its so per
cent In counties where collections were
small, was declared invalid on the
ground hat the division under the old
act was operative and in effect before
the new law was enacted.
The county, however, will get only so
per cent of the automobile taxes COLI
lected this year, under the new act.
