Carolina has issued bonds in the sum
Of s5O,ooo;00o for the construction
Of state highway system. County bond
issues have been authorized totaling
about $16, 100000. This makes to-
tai of s66,OOO,0OO to be spent in
that state on roads. Georgia is launch
ing an ambitious road building pro-
gram. Alabama is planning to issue
$25, 100000, for the construction of
a state highway system. Florida is
building more roads. ,@
"South Carolina must keep pace
with these states or our state will
surely suffer. Our farm lands will
decline in value and the population
of our cities will decrease.
Because of the lack of opportu.
nifty imposed by present conditions
the rural communities are being
drained of almost every drop of theil
first-class blood.
! Good roads and social better
ment are all one problem in South
Carolina. Good roads and rura
church are all one nroblem in South
Carolina. Roads will pave the wa!
for other things so badly needed"

BRAND TO COME
FOR CONFERENCE
q EHI
FRENCH PREMIER ATTENDS
DISARMAMENT MEETING.
FIRST FORMAL ACCEPTANCE
RECEIVED AT WASHINGTON
FROM AN INVITED NATION.

Washington, Aug. 15.-The hope
of American officials that the dis
armament conference will be q dip
lomatic conclave Of the first order
was strengthened today when France
informed the state department that
she would send her premier, Aristide
BRAND, at the head of her delega-
ton of diplomatists.
/, The decision is expected here to
be followed by similar moves on the
part Of the other powers, investing
the gathering with extraordinary
significance and giving it much Of
the plenary authority that was pos
sessed by the council Of ''heads of
states," at Versailles. "
The French notification came in
the form Of a message from Premier
BRAND himself, transmitted through
the American embassy at Paris, say
ing merely that the premier would
I'd kepl.asure in personally repre-
senting his country at the confer
esce. ~. 81 \. s. +ttat
= 1T was the first formal acceptance
to be received from any off&he in
yited nations. -
5 Meantime the adnintstration's
preparation OF It's own part in the
conference was advanced by q re-
quest sent to congress for an appro-
priation of 100000 as an initial
budget to pay expenses Of the Ann
5erican representatives and Of a sec
retariat-general.
The sum fixed IN the request and
the data accompanying. it apparent
~ disposed Of any expectation that
this government would pay expenses
Of any Of the visiting delegations,
for congress was informed speciical-
ly that the money was to be used for
the American delegation and for the.
secretariat-general alone. Z.
in making the request President
Harding merely transmitted with his
approval q letter written by Under
secretary Fletcher OF the state de-
partment, who has been placed in
charge of the physical arrangements
for the conference and who prepared
his estimates after a conference with
Director General Dawes Of the bud
get bureau. There was no attempt to
divide the sums into separate. items.
In the senate it is likely that the re-
quested appropriations will be at
tached to the shipping board appro-
prfation bill. =-1s IS sS.s IT,.
{ News that the French premier
would attend the conference was re-
ceived with manifest satisfaction
here, for there has been q general
expectation that should one Of the
powers decide to send its premier
the other would do likewise in the
interest Of fair representation.
Not only win the presence Of the
foreign prSmiers here add greatly
to Che weight OF the deliberations,
but Il Il expected also to be q con-
siderable help in sxpedatins the work
u the conference. In ordinary Dip
lomstie gatherings much time Is con-
sumed communicating with the home
gevernments, for information and in-
aructions, but with the highest polit-
lead authorities Of ths. various pox-
ers aetually on the ground It Is
hoped decisions can be made prompt
" and with fnality.
