COURT HOLDS FARM
LOAN BANKS VALID
DESIGNED TO ASSIST AGRICUL-
TURAL DEVELOPMENT
Money To Be Made Available. for
Farmers, Says Commissioner
Lobdell

Washington, Feb. 28.-The farm
loan act designed to assist the agri-
cultural development of the United
States by providing readily accessible
credits to farmers through the fedel-
al land banks was declared valid to-
day by the supreme court.
In an opinion which Commissioner
Charles E. Lobdell of the farm loan
board declared "clears away every
legal question and removes every
shadow of question as to the legality
of the banks or their bonds," the
court held that congress had full au-
thority to establish the land banks
and the correlative authority to ex-
empt their bonds from state taxation.
Commissioners Lobdell announced
that there would be an immediate is
sue of farm loan bonds "to an unde-
terminate amount" to finance the
hundred of millions of dollars in loans
which already had been approved by
the board and which were held up
pending the courts decision.
Bonds to Be Issued
ga bond offering will be made as
soon as the bonds can be made rea-
dy," Mr.. Lobdell said, and "immedi-
ately thereafter the distribution of
funds begun. 1t would be at least
thirty days, however, before funds
are available.
'The farm loan board is hopeful
that the market may absorb farm loan
bonds equal to the borrowing demands
of the farmers Of the country but no
one can predict with safety the res
suit of financial operation Of this
magnitude"
The case decided today was an ap-
peal from lower court DEGREES refus-
ing an injunction sought by Charles
w. Smith, a stockholder in the Kan
sas City Title and Trust company to
restrain the institution from invest
ing it's funds in the securities Of the
land banks. The contention was
made that the farm loan act was in
valid as congress had neither the au-
thority under the constitution to es-
tablish banks nor to exempt these Sc
curities from state taxation.
The court in practically unanimous
opinion upheld the authority of the
government in both instances.

WILL NOT GRANT
ADDITIONAL PAY
House Kills Resolution Offered by
A. w. Todd
The State, 2.

The house of representatives last
night killed a concurrent resolution
offered by Representative Albert
Whitner Todd of Charleston to grant
each member of the general assembly
S1o0 additional pay with per diem
and mileage expenses for every day in
excess of the customary 40 days ses-
sion. This money, under the provi-
sion of Mr.. Todd's resolution, was to
have been paid cut Of the funds of
the house and senate, the clerk of the
house issuing certificates for this
amount to the members of the house
and the clerk of the senate issuing
similar certificates to the members cf
the senate. This measure was re-
garded by proponents of Representa-
tive Sapp's bill to reduce the salaries
of the members of the house and SEN
ate by one-half as counter attack
on the Richland representatives
measure. Mr.. Sapp's resolution will
come up for consideration this morn
ing.
The house also passed a concurrent
resolution introduced by Representa-
tive Harry Simonhoff of Charleston
providing for the appointment of
commission of five men to investigate
the fish industry of the state. Three
of the members Of the commission
are to be appointed by the speaker
of the house while the other two mem
bers are to be appointed by the pres
ident Of the senate. The commission
under the provisions of the resolu-
ton, will report back to the general
assembly next year, giving the re-
suits of it's Investigations and max
ing recommendations as to any need
ed changes in the fisheries law. The
house yesterday afternoon passed to
third reading the fish commission bill
despite the almost general opinion
among the members of the house that
the present commission had not been
functioning properly and Mr.. Simon
hof's resolution is designed to check
up on the enforcement of the fish laws
and the fish commission, in whose
hands their enforcement rests. The
test vote came on the motion to strike
out the resolving words of the reso-
luton, the motion being killed, 26 to
f; 66.
Tie senate last night returned to
the house with amendments the bill,
introduced by Representative Thomas
F., S. Mcmillan, requiring telegraph COM
panies operating in the state to de-
liver messages within the limits of
any incorporated city or town free of
delivery charges. The senate amend
ments, the chief of which made the
bill apply to only those cities now
having over 10000 inhabitants, were
agreed to and the bill enrolled for
ratification.
Numerous other bills, the greater
number of them supply bills for the
various counties, were also received
from the senate and either agreed to
and enrolled for ratification or sent
to free conference.

CLINICS FOR TREATMENT
OF VENEREAL DISEASES

Jacksonville, Oct. 7.-One of the
greatest movements toward the at
tainments of a higher standard of
public health and consequently OF
higher STANDARD of industrial eftic-
iency was launched last week at Live
Oak, when a conference called by
Thomas Hamilton, vice president and
general manager of the Standard
Lumber Company, decided on plans
for Immediately opening four free
clinics for the treatment of venereal
diseases.
The members of the conference
were Mr.. Hamilton, DIR. George Dame,
director of the bureau of venereal dis:
eases, DIR. ]. A. Hague of Alton, DR..
w. P. Bullard of Dowling Park, DIR.
D G. Milton of Loughbridge and DR..
r. J. Creme of Perry.
Drs. Hague, Milton, Greene and
Bullard will operate the clinics IN
their respective communities.
1t was brought out in conference
that in one large sawmill in this state
sixty-two per cent of all employees,
black and white, were infected. The
ineficiency and high sickness and
death rate indicated tremendous fl
| nancial loss to the men and to their
employers.
