FARM LOAN ASSO.
TO Be ORGANIZED
IN WILSON COUNTY
ARE
PLANS
The Directors Of the Chamber
of Commerce in Session Last
Night Decided Upon the
Formation Of the Organiza-
ton to Aid the Farmers of
Wilson County.

At a meeting of the Directors OF
the Chamber of Commerce held last
night it was the unanimous opinion
of all the Directors that the time
is ripe for a Farm Loan Association
to be organized in Wilson County at
once in order that some money
can be brought into the county, and
committee composed of w. A. Lucas,
r. C. Welfare, w. N. Harrell, Gra-
ham Woodard and B. F. Eagles was
appointed to meet at once and per-
feet plans, draw up the necessary pa
pers and file same with the Federal
Land Bank at Columbia, S. G.
The plans under which the Govern
ment lends money to farmers or peo-
pie who run a farm by wage hands
or share cropping system is very sim
pie and the red tape has been re-
duced to a minimum. There must be
at least ten persons signing the Ar
ticles of Association, applying for at
least $2O,0O0.0O in the aggregate,
but there is no limit as to the maxi
mum number of charter members, or
Ito the total amount desired, each
person can borrow from $4,000 to
$40, 100000. The local association ap-
points three of their members to act
as a loan committee whose duties
shall be to assess the value of the
property on which a loan is desired
sends a man to do the assessing, af-
ter an agreement as to the value of
the land is reached to Government
will lend on a basis of SO percent on
land and 20 percent of the value of
permanent improvements. The money
can be paid back in from 5 to "a
years and the interest charged will
be percent per annum, interest pay
able December 1st, the Government
taking a first mortgage on the prop
erty, If there is at the present time
a first mortgage against piece of
property that is not as much as the
Government is willing to lend them
THE member can take up the first mort
gage that is against the property,
making a new first mortgage to the
government and receive the differ
chase of new land, equipment, fertil-
izer and live stock necessary for the
proper and reasonable operation OF
the farm, to provide buildings, to in
Inc q
clearing, tilling, drainage, fencing,
etc. The entire work of the AssOcia-
tion is done by secretary-treasurer
who is elected by the members, there
fore, the borrowers have nothing to
do. 1t was the opinion of the Direc-
tors that regardless of who got the
loans or what use was made of same
that it would be of great benefit to
Wilson County for the money would
tbe put in circulation, the banks
would be relieved of some of the
lstrain that they have be> working
under as the farmers could take uI
their notes and borrow more money
on a longer term and not have tC
bother each year about renewing
same. The Chamber of Commerce is
very anxious to get the money from
the Government at once, therefore
they request everyone who wants any
of this money and who is entitled tt
same to get in touch with the Secre
itary of the Chamber of Commerce a
: once, it will be necessary that they
call in person as the law require:
that each applicant sign his name ane
the amount he desires.

shelter for a lower cost than other work
ers or give up one-haf Of his total earn
ings for SIC necessity.
In less tIan one day a s. pair Of
shoes may be earned by the coal miner,
who then has all that he earns for the
remainder of the week for food, recrea-
ton and other necessities. The cigar
maker, however, must work nearly two
days to get his pair OF shoes, as must the
cotton mill operative. Assuming that
food costs the family of the worker at
least $12 a week, the worker in the men 8
clothing industry may provide this
necessary for his family with an e1pend-
iture of about half the effort that is re-
quired of the worker in the cotton man
ufacturing mill
The average worker in the automobile
shop wants his children TO have a better
education than himself. Yet the teacher
who trains his children must labor
more than twelve days to earn 4 suit OF
clothing or a gown at $40, while the
auto worker himself is able to win the
same necessity IN but 7.6 days OF labor.
The auto worker need spend little time TO
train for his profession. He receives pay
as an apprentice during his period of six
months training. The elementary school

FARM WAGES DROP
NEARLY 100 PER CENT.
Wages Of more than 100000 farm la
bOrers have been reduced by nearly 100
per cent since the harvest Of 1920 Thh
return of the farmer for his products in
many cases has been forced down to pre-
war levels. The average farm laboreT
now earns less than the hosiery manu-
featuring worker. Because Of the high
wages paid in many lines Of industry
however, the rural worker is unable to
purchase the supplies and necessities he
needs in the volume of former times.
The rural or agricultural population
furnishes 40 per cent Of the Nation =
entire purchasing power according TO
findings of The national conference on
unemployment.
This explains the closing Of many
shops and factories IN the big cities. II
explains why 10000 workers, mostly In
the cities are without jobs. There Is
too great disproportion between the
earnings Of the different groups Of work
ers. The farm worker can not buy the
products turned out by the worker In the
mills manufacturing leather. The leather
worker finds mems clothing is costing
him a too large proportion Of his entire
earnings and the refore he buys sparing

discussion Of the situation. Some minor
union officials met here, but most Of
the preparation OF employees for tomor-
rows session was done by the brother
hood heads in Cleveland.
Chairman R. NJ. Barton of the labor
board served notice upon union leaders
that all executive officers and general
chairmen Of the unions involved in the
dispute must appear at tomorrow's hear
Ing. Replying to kilograms received
from w. G. Lee Of the Railway Train
men, w. S. Carter of the fremen and en-
ginemen and other various general chair
men throughout the country, the board
stated positively all Of those summoned
must be present in person.
It has been reported here some Of the
brotherhood chiefs had informed the gen.
eral chairmen they would not need to
come to Chicago. The board directed the
brotherhood chiefs to withdraw any in
structions Of this sort.
The strike conference tomorrow is to
be held in the Coliseum Annex and will
be open to the public. This hall was
chosen because the offices Of the rail-
road board would not accommodate the
sixteen hundred railroad executives and
union leaders who have been ordered to
parJlclpaCe.
1t is expected the railroad board will
request the carriers to refrain, for the
present, from demanding a slash in pay
of rail workers. The men 1t is antici-
pated, Will Sc requested to rescind their
Oct. 80 strike order.
The board believes the strike will be
called off after the session which may
last for several days. This is what the
board had in mind. according to best In
formation, when 1t summoned the general
chairman Of the brotherhoOds, whose
sanction is necessary to call of the
strike.
Sessions of the chairman of the rail-
road department Of the American Fed

bers refused TO join the 100000 members
Of the trotherhoOds in the strike-are
over. Just q few of the American Fed

watch the result of the railroad board
conference
The railroad board had not received
any answer to its demands that strikers
on the International & Great Northern
Railroad Of Texas return to work. The
strike started on this road last Saturday
as a warning" OF the Sunday strike.
Reports received heer indicate there Is

SAYS BIG STEEL

TOLABOR PEACE
New York Attorney Asserts
Corporation Plans to
Kill Unions.
COAL STRIKE INTERESTS

WASHINGTON, Oct 25.-The United
States Steel Corporation was charged to-
day with being the greatest enemy to
industrial peace in this country" by
Samuel Untermeyer, New York attorney,
before the Senate committee investigat-
ing the civil warfare between the oper
ators and miners in the West Virginia
coal fields.
Untermeyer said he understood the
Steel Corporation is enormously inter
ested" in the West Virginia mine fields.
The continued disorders in West Vir-
Ginia are only a local manifestation of
national industrial unrest" Untermeyer
said.
Untermeyer' declared that one of the
chief aims Of the steel corporation and its
allied interests is to stamp out the union
or closed shop and collective bargain
ing"
He admitted that despite the years he
had devoted to studying Industrial prob
lens he had discovered no panacea for
the Ills of capital and labor.
But If the United States Steel Corpora
ton could be eliminated there would be
Industrial peace in this country within
six months" Untermeyer added.
Popular representative government has
been extinguished in Mingo, Logan and
Mcdowell Counties, West Virginia, by
the coal operators, who have even
seized the courts and the election ma
chinery,' according to the testimony of
n. W. Houston, Charleston CIV. Va-)
attorney who preceded Untermeyer.
Houston, one Of counsel for the union
miners, said he was afraid to go into
Logan County because of the threats
made against his life.
1.-THE United States Steel CORPORATION,
with all its ramifications, has now grown
so large and so monstrous that it literal
~ Is above the law" declared Inter
meyer.
Untermeyer upheld the right OF collec-
tive bargaining on the part OF the work
tEg class and advocated a system of
Federal licensing for corporations, the
granting Of a license to be conditional
of the recognition OF the principle Of
collective bargaining by the corporation.

Robert H. Lieber of Indianapolis, presi-

there is some prospect that the price or

likely ever to return; that the movie

COUP OF FORMER
EMPEROR FAILS
WITH CAPTURE
Great Powers May Decide to
Danish Him From
Europe.

BERLIN, Oct. 25-Former Emperor
Charles and his wife, ex-Empress Zita,
are prisoners in their own country today,
following the ignominous collapse OF the
restorationist adventure In Hungary, and
the allied powers are now debating their
future fate.
Thus has ended the boldest royalist
coup Of modern times, after campaign
of less than seventy-twO hours during
which all Of central Europe trembled
under the menace Of a new war scare.
The ex-imperial pair, who were cap
tured at Komorn by Regent Admiral
Horthy's nationalist troops, are under
heavy guard and their escape is impos-
sible said dispatches from Budapest
They probably will be kept at KOmorn
until the great powers decide upon a
future asylum. Charles may be banished
from Europe entirely to prevent further
trouble making in the old dual monarchy.
Like Napoleon, he may be fnterned IN
some isolated spot far from his native
land.
FORMER EMPRESS
WANTS CHILDREN.
Former Empress Zita is reported to
have asked permission to go to Switzer-
land to get her children. She has prom
ised to accept without question any fate
children are at her side She may elect
to accompany her husband if the allies
agree.
The former empress generally is re-
garded as the moving spirit in the ILL
fated exploit which carried the couple
from their Swiss exile by air across Eu
rope almost within sight Of the citadel
of Budapest, tanning afresh the dying
fame Of monarchists all along the old
royalist front.
The audacious flight Of the Hapsburgs
and their little army beneath the old
imperial double eagle was brought to a
dramatic close at a moment when their
hearts were beating feverishly at the
thought Of jubilant nation hailing them
back to the throne Of st. Stephen.
COP CAUSED NEW
THREAT OF WAR.
The heavy pressure brought by the al
lied powers upon the Budapest govern
ment convinced the Horthy cabinet that
It must act decisively TO save the country.
II Charles had remained uncaptured an
other twenty-four hours it is likely that
Czecho- Slovakian and Jugo-Slav troops
would have been pouring across the Hun
garion frontiers and again the guns
would be laundering along the Danube
in a new war.
It was the second time that Charles
had seen his dream OF Hapsburg restora-
ton in Hungary shattered. Now he must
"sign on the dotted line" definitely re
nouncing the crown himself and for his
e-year-old son, Otto, who had kept re
ugiOusly behind sealed-lips the news Of
the fight Of his mother and father.
