The state organization of the Sal vation Army, meeting at Little Rock yesterday to outline the scope of he work to be attempted during the next 12 months, decided to secure a fund of S141 ,000 for the erection of rescue homes at Little Rock, Fort Smith, Texarkana and Pine Bluff, and quotas were assigned the county units.

 FROM CONVOY TRIP

Lieut.. Col. H. L. McAlster, who commanded the flying squadron of the Arkansas state guard on the first leg of its tour over Arkansas, returned last night, having left the convoy at Philadelphia. Major R. B.

 Colonel McAlister said that the motor convoy covered 1,7OO miles while under his command and stops were made at 33 cities and towns, where be made B speeches on Ameri- canism. Great receptions were ac- corded the convoy at all stops, he said, especially in southeast Arkansas, where American Legion posts and other public organizations were hosts to the travellers.
 The final stop of the convoy before it's tour is ended will be made at Con- way on October 6, as at present plan Heu, anu all oiSdlIEdIloHS HeIe Will De called upon to assist in giving the tour- ists the biggest reception of the entire trip. Members of the party are look ing forward to their stop in Conway as high spot of the tour, and friends of the state guard here are determined they shall not be disappointed. MT. Rogers, who is the principal speaker of the party as now composed, has a wide reputation as a brilliant and en- tertaining talker, and his appeal for broader Americanism is scoring a dis tinct success with audiences along the route of the squadron.

CORRECTS STATEMENT
 ABOUT EARTHQUAKES

Editor Log Cabin Democrat.
 In order to correct a statement made in your paper about the 18th or 16th of August in regard to my return from California being caused by the earth quakes out there, 1 will ask you to kindly publish this as a correction of that statement.
 There have been several quakes out there this year, but they have caused but little damage and no excitement. I did not feel quake while I was out there. People are not leaving by scores as stated nor does it seem to have had any effect on the rush of tourists to that part of California.
 Also there is absolutely nothing to the statement that property is depre- ciating in value on account of the quakes there. Town property is cheap there compared to the orchard prop critics and is really cheaper than our city property here, but the orchard and ranch property seems to be stead fly increasing in value. A five-acre orange ranch near Glendora sold just before we left there for S25,000 ol 5000 an acre.
 I have been quite a good deal an noyed by the false impression that has gone out over the country on account of the article purporting to have been a statement from me and want to get this impression corrected as much as possible. G. A. Freeman.
