The injured were:
Mrs. Mooney, neck, side and back

Blanche Thomas, knee hurt.
May Fentress, back wrenched.
]. L. Deskey, foot and shin injured.
The train was running only about
20 miles an hour when the accident
occurred, having just left Gala. A
broken ran caused the wreck, railroad
officials said. A high embankment
bbside the track probably prevented
a more serious wreck, as it kept the
four coaches which left the rails from
overturnfng.
Russellville and Atkins physicians
were called to the scene of the acct

the injured.
Passengers were transferred to the

Ex-sERvicE MEN COLONIZATION
PLANS POPULAR IN LOUISE
ANA.

New Orleans, lahore than 20,
600 acres of Louisiana farming lane
has been offered to Blair Harrison
chief Of rehabilitation of the United
States veteran bureau for the Sixth
District, located at New Orleans as
result of his announcement that the
bureau proposed to locate colonies OF
agriculturally inclined ex-service men
on the completion of their training.
One New Orleans bank president
| offered to build community for men
desiring to enter the sugar crop pro
duction, and New Orleans home
stead association has offered to fl
nance men who desire to open IN
truck farming on five-acre farms they
are willing to throw open near the
! city.
The offer of 10000 acres of farm.
ing land throughout the state came
to the bureau from some of the larg-
est landowners who are enthusiastic,
not only for the colonization of Lou.
isianna with trained agriculturists
produced by the bureau, but are will
ling to undertake on liberal terms the
colonization of the state with agricul-
turists from other sources.
The large land owners indicated in
their communications with Mr.. Har-
rison that they feel that what Louisi-
ana agricultural development needs is
more people in the farming districts,
and marks the passing of the planta-
ton idea of farming to the small
farm
L. M. Pool, president of the Marine
Bank and Trust Company advised Mr..
Harrison that he stands willing to
construct new farming community
on large tract Of sugar land now
owned by him, and assist the ex-
service men to get started in sugar
cane production through extended
payments for the land covering TWEEN
ty years il necessary, establishment
Of credit, erection of homes, and pur-
chase Of farming implements in addi-
ton to that provided by the govern
ment in its $500 allotment.
The local homestead association
which offered to develop five-acre
truck farms near New Orleans for
the men will also assist the men in
the erection OF homes and extend the
payments over long period of time.
Another large owner Of land ad-
vised us he had $500 acres which he
was willing to assist the men in Gre
ating into paying farms" said Mr..
Harrison. "This man advised us that
he Is willing to establish a store for
them, assist them in erecting their
homes and in paying for their prop
erty. Colonization seems to have lift
popular chord in Louisiana"
