/ bill to make November 18th a Ma

before legislatures in Ohio, Califor-
MIA and Minnesota.
/ California Land Bill Very Liberal
The soldier land settlement and the
home aid bills introduced in the Cali
fornia legislature are said by their
hackers to promise greater assistance
to veterans than any similar meas
ures yet proposed. The land.
! settlement bill provides for grants
!! from public lands, and, if necessary,
loans up to $4,000 for purchasing live
stock and making improvements.
Loans would run for forty years with
interest at five percent. The home
aid act provides loans Of not to ex-
coed $4,000 to apply on the purchase
price of homes, the loans to be Sc
cured by a mortgage on the house
and to be repaid by the ex-service
man to the State under the same con-
ditions as the loans under the land
settlement act.
The success of the South Dakota
land settlement scheme is cited by ad-
vocates Of the land settlement bills in
California and other states. The
South Dakota law permits loans up
to $4,000, and loans made to 1,4O0
men to date have averaged $4,000
each, most of the men putting up ten
percent of the capital required. The !
State Land Settlement Commissioner
recently said 100 percent Of the men
who took the loans are making good. |

The American Legion in Washington !
State has just issued report charg-
ing that the reclamation board of that |
State has not provided land for sin
gle ex-service man, although it had I
ample funds and legislative authority. |
The report says that the State Re-
clamation Service was created in 1919
and was empowered to set aside lands
for settlement, ex-soldiers to have
rights, but that veterans
got no preference in the one project
where settlement was attemptd. The
committee recommended that the of
fetal administering the land laws be
ex-service men.

nance to provide for the issuance Of

The advocates of the bond issue
and the new school building are enthu-

with other funds of the. city and the

(From Wednesdays Daily HeraldD

(From Wednesday Daily Herald.)
Ashley B. Sowell returned this morn
ing from Birmingham where on yes
te.day he represented the Kiwanis
Club in the meeting held to take steps
to divert the Florida tourist travel
from the Fayetteville and Huntsville
line to the Columbia and Birmingham
or Jackson Highway route.
Speaking OF the meeting Mr.. Sow
ell declared that it was well attended
that there were present representa-
tives from many of the Kiwanis Clubs
of North Alabama, a member of the
Alabama state highway commission
and number of the most prominent
business men of that section of the
state The meeting is really the fore.
runner of the reorganization of the
Zee line highway.
{ Another meeting will be held at De-
catur on May 26 and it is quite proba-
Bile that Mr.. Sowell will attend this
meeting 1T is estimated" said Mr..
Sswell, that during the past season
there were not less than ten thousand
Florida tourist cars pass over the
Huntsville and Fayetteville route. 1t
is generally agreed that these tourists
will spend on an average OF $40 per
car in city the size of Columbia.
That means that II the cars had been
routed through Columbia and Decatur
and Birmingham as now proposed,
there would have been 100000 ex.
pended here that was expended in
other cities. Therefore believe that
nothing could be Of more value to Mau
ny county than the changing of the
route. aeg
How Will this be done? Principally
by extensive advertising Simply by
bringing to the attention of the public
| the fact that ours is the most direct
shortest and best grade route. With
the completion of the highways in this
aid Giles counties at an early date we
will of course have very powerful ar
gUment"
