STRONG AGRICULTURAL
TEACHING FORCE

Clemson College, September s.
There will be no change in teaching
staff or in the courses given in the
agricultural departments resident
teaching work for the coming session,
and the prospects are for a good year
Of effective work, says DR.. F. H. H.
Calhoun, director. There will be a
general strengthening of the courses
given. and also the probable addition
of an elective in foreign languages.
The division of agricultural education
is adding two assistant professors who
are to give good part Of their time
to teaching agriculture in the Seneca
and Calhoun-Clemson high schools,
which will be used by the division as
practice schools in teaching agricul-
ture and science.

The principal sections agreed upon
today were those defining foreign
traders and foreign trade corpora
tions. providing the same treatment
for personal service corporations as
for other corporations and fixing the
basis for determining gain or loss in
accord with decisions OF the supreme
court. Some minor changes in the

Senator Smoot : (Republican) of
Utah announced today it was his plan
to withhold his bill embodying the
sales tax plan and offer it as a substi-

by the committee. Should the COM

lief seems to be that it will. the Utah
senator plans to offer it in the SEN

The finance corf-fnittee will meet
again Monday to continue it's work on
the house bill with a view to COM
pleting it's revision before the end
of the week. Six major alterations
as recommended by Secretary Mellon
are before the committee but the

Worst in City's History.
Reports coming from outlying Sec

Streets in some instances have been
swept clean-almost their entire

their foundations and piled one upon

Dead animals line the banks of the

The flood waters from the San An

Glass Smasllers

Salem people who live in houses
even partially constructed OF glass,
better have stones ready to throw
at burglars. And merchants who
have stores with glass windows,
look out.
Another establishment-the Fair
grounds store-was pilfered some
time last night by burglars who
gained entrance via the broken
window route. Panes of glass sv
the front of the Store were smash
ed. The robbery took place about
2 a. m, it is believed.
Six cans of baking powder, two
jars of jelly, some small change and
some salt were taken, it was stated
A quantities of pennies were left
untouched.
Halle Doe, proprietor of the
store, told police this morning that
he was awakened about 2 O'Clock
by noise, but said that he did not
investigate. The burglars were
frightened away cefore they had
finished their work by Mr.. Does
dog, it is thought.
other stores in the outlying dis
tricts of Salem have been burglar
ized recently after an entrance had
aeen made by breaking the win
dows.

.Horse-drawn
Vehicles Must
0beyLaw,Edict

For the first time in Salem horse
drawn vehicles and bicycles are go
ing to come in for a share of at
tention equal to that given automo-
biles and trucks in the campaign
to enforce the traffic laws of the
city, which was launched this
morning by Chief of Police Verden
NJ Moffitt.
"There may have been some
slight excuse for the drivers OF
horse drawn vehicles in their vio-
lations of the traffic ordinance IN
the past" said Chief Moffitt this
morning. "The rules regulating this
form of traffic have never been
enforced and some of the drivers
NAV not be familiar with the pro-
visions of the city ordinance. Ig-
norauce of the law does not excuse
them in their violations, however.
"Drivers of horse-drawn vehicles
must observe the traffic laws as
they relate to parking, right-of-
way, turning in streets and at IN
tersections, display of lights after
dark and keeping to the right.
"Bicycle riders deserve no leni-
ency In the enforcement of the traf
tic rules and they will be shown
none. They must keep within the
law in every respect. but especial
ly must they equip their bicycles
with lights"
Chief Moffitt also announced TO
day that in getting his traffic law
enforcement campaigned launched
the way he wants it, he will again
straddle the police motorcycle anc
SHOW the men how I want it
done"
Under the provisions Of the
amended traffic ordinance the
speed limit in the residence dis

instead of 20 as stated in The Capt.

lowance at intersections In the
