writers places fire losses in New
York in last II months at s16,SO6.-
so. Losses in New Jersey same
period. S2,443,9SO. Combined total.
represents increase of s5,3T9.420
over last year. or 3S.7S per cent
Other states would probably show in
proportion.
Thus does ire insurance bear an
increased burden duriag depressed
periods when fires nystsrously in
erase.
Il ssSzis "a De impossible 70 prove
iIesRGiary origin OF fires, but the
fact remains that the fore records

pany falling market.
Insurance pays the criminal who
secs unpublished. for these losses
figure in the everage which estab-
fishes an inSurnce rate.
For this reason the public has =
justice the man who sells his
stock TO the insurance company
when times pinch.
The crime Of sr<sa should be made
more IN poaktsT than at present BY

Wants to Diuide
 Sumter Into Districts

Livingston, July Especially The board of revenue at their meet ing Monday had up the question of dividing the county into six districts, with one member from each and the chairman to be elected by the county al large
 The board was asked to indorse the proposition that bill might be introduced a the special session of the legislature, should one be called. The board, as at present constituted, is composed of four members From the southern end of the county and one from Livingston in the center, but not member from the northern. the eastern or the western section of the county.
 Two members of the board favored the proposition, one from southern sumter and the one from Livingston. but the other three from the south end opposed it. One of them how ever, said, personally he favored it. but he could not vote for it because his neighbors in the south end of the county were opposed to 1t.
 It is likely, however, that the bill will be introduced. giving each end every part of the county representa- . ton of the board of revenue

 ID CLOSING LEASE
Secretary of War Declines to Make Definite Statement Regarding Ford Proposal
 on Muscle Shoals
By Assoclnted Press

Washington, July 15.-Further con- ference between government officials and Henry Ford will be held before final decision is made on his offer to buy the nitrate plant and lease the Wilson and No. 3 dams near Muscle Shoals. Secretary Weeks said today the negotiations between Ford's rep resentativ and Assistant Commerce Secretary Houston, which led to the offer, was only of preliminary character, and he would ask Mir Ford to confer here with him as soon as he had carefully studied the pro- posal.
 Mir Weeks indicated that he would also confer with Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, who was an expert on water power development, and with MT. Hoover. commerce secre- tary, who was an expert on indus trial development.
 The war secretary declined to make a definite statement on the offer, but said what he had in mind recently when he announced that he would gladly sell the nitrate project and dams to a responsible individual, on satisfactory terms, differed somewhat from the form of Mir Fords pro- posal He indicated that its terms might be modified in the conferences to be called as the form of proposal might be changed in some of its pro- visions

House Votes 152 to 97 to Im- pose Ad VaIorem Duty of 15 Per Cent on All
 Kinds of Hides
By Associated Press

Washington, July 15-Hides-raw v green and pickled--were thrown of the Fordney tariff free list today by the House, which voted. 152 to s7, to impose an ad valorem duty of Is per cent, to be. followed by another amendment taxing all leather prod ucts, including shoes.
 Eight republicans, members of the ways and means committee whi ch framed the bill, voted for free hides and Representative Garner of Texas, democ~atic committeeman in charge of the general fight against the biu, was counted with republicans voting for the tax.
 There were many breaks from straight partly lines on the first con- tested section of the measure, bu; finding themselves with votes to spare, republican leaders forced an early adjournment over the dem ocratic demand that the bill be read for amendment.
 Representative Hawley of Wash ington, republican member of the committee, in pleading against the d would get less than they were now paid, and that 100000 would be added annually to the nations shoe and leather bill.

 Democratic Hope Ended
 The action of the leaders in ad- journing after a five-hour session, and on the heels of an 11-hour sit- ting yesterday, ended the hope of democrats of chance to demand a vote on amendments generally.

TRYING TO KEEP MILL
 FROM CLOSING DOWN

Gadsden, July 15.-(Special)-Pres ident c. A. Moffett of the steel plant, in talk to about 500 men at the works yesterday, told of the scarcity of business and in order to keep the plant running would be compelled 10 cut the bonus from 25 to 15 per cent, to take effect July 15
 The plant is only operating the finishing end of the mill, nails being the principal article shipped. The rod mill and wire mill ran three days this week in addition to the nail mill. When these departments run in this manner, about 520 men are at work In the plant When the rod mill and drawing room do not run, about 300 men are employed.
 The outlook at present Is not very bright, but next month is the tell tale month in the wire business, and 1t is predicted that this mill will get
 their share of it.

SHEFFIELD HOPES FOR
 EARLY CONSERVATION

Sheffield, July 5.-(Special. )-The offer of Henry Ford to operate the big nitrate plant here and to take over the Wilson dam on longtime lease has created the greatest inter est The people of Sheffield ana Florence have worked necessarily for the resumption of work on the dam, and now that bona hde offer has been made joy is unconfned'
 When the first dispatch announcing that Ford was negotiating for the nlant and dam was read here visions of immediate resumption of industrial activities were seen.
 The fact that Henry Ford Is in terested in the project has been the one pleasing feature of the whole situation, for citizens throughout the Muscle Shoals district are unanimous in the opinion that Ferds acqulslton of the plant and dam will mean more to the south than if some other in dividual or corporation should secure the properties.
 As pointed out by this corre- spondent some weeks ago, Ford efficiency in organizing and produc- tion leads many to believe that should he secure the plant ana dam, that immediately great industrial center would spring up in this city. Here the raw materials for manu- featuring purposes are at hand, and in addition there is a blast furnace, ore properties, coal and stone prop critics that will furnish the basic metal for the manufacture of auto- mobiles tractors and machinery
 But aside from what may occur Tn the future, there Is unanimity oi opinion that of all men Ford is the one captain of industry that should have the plants.

Fort Deposit Will Drop Cotton and
 Plant Orchards

Fort Deposit, July 15=(SpecialD The Peach Growers association of Fort Deposit is steadily growing. Each day finds its membership in- creased to marked degree, and large orders for trees are being received daily, as an illustration, prominent planter from north Lowndes and an other from east Lowndes, wired the secretary to place their orders for three and five thousand trees for fall delivery, respectively.
 It seems that the farmers through out the county are branching into other industries for a money crop besides the old system of trying ia vain to grow cotton under the pre- vatling conditions
