Missions, here.
Canton, says this report, has been

Plans For Restatement
Of Existing Law

New York, June 5.-Definite and
far reaching plans to bring about a
comprehensive and concise restate-
ment of the existing law, both federal
and state, and to unity the methods
of teaching law in all schools and
universities4 were announced today
by the American Acamedy of Juris-
prudence, an organization founded in
1914 to cooperate with the Ameri-
can Bar Association in simplifying
the laws and the machinery for the
administration of Justice
The project is being financed by the
legal profession, and the profits ac-
cruing from publication and other
sources will revert to an endowment
fund created by the American Bar
Association and the Academy of Ju-
risprudence for the perfection of the
work of restatement, and other ac-
tivities for the Improvement of law
and the administration of justice.
Bearing upon this, the academy pro-
poses to establish central office in
New York to assemble and distribute
legal knowledge throughout the coun-
try.
Among the the noted lawyers iden-
titled with the movement are William
H. Taft, Charles E. Hughes, Elihu
Root, Alton B. Parker, Martin w.
Littleton, Paul D. Cravath, Roscoe
Pound, Dean of Harvard Law School;
Hampton L. Carson, William Bro
smith, James Brown Scott, Secretary
of the Carnegie Foundation for
Peace, and many others from all
parts of the country. James Dewitt
Andrews, Chairman of the American
Bar Associations committee on class
ifications and restatement, has been
in active charge of the work.
The proposed restatement is con-
tained in a comprehensive library
made up of three units coordinated
by common classification providing
easy reference from one to the other.
The first unit consists of two volumes
with an institutional, philosophic an
alysis of the law bringing out all
elemental relationships as wei las
rules and leading precedents. The
second unit contains 20 volumes, en-
bracing restatement of the whole
body of the actual law as it now ex-
lists, with exhaustive references and
citations to authorities. Unit three
is made up of 100 volumes contain
ing cases selected by leading legal
scholars from the American and
English reports beginning with the
Year Books and extending through
to the present and current reports,
thus giving continuous account
of the growth of the legal system

When the Government
Runs the Switch Board

Public ownership of utility causes
some wry faces in England, when the
british telephone system, run by the
post Office, is contemplated 1t hap
pened that England received in the
same week the report of an official
committee which had been seeking the
reason why the British telephone sys-
tenn is not a success and the reports of
the telephone system of the United
States for the previous year.
In the United States the 26 large
associated private companies and the
5000 and more independent concerns
made a showing of efficiency that is
unknown in England, where both the
telephone and the telegraph are heavy
charges upon the public purse.
"The telephone system In America, !
one British comment runs. "is as diff
ferent from what we know here under
the same name as an article in general
use is different from rare and ex-
rensive luxury. In this country cery
few people not actually engaged in
business use the telephone at all. In
the United States, even in rural dis
tricts, it is quite common to find the
telephone installed under conditions
which in this country would seem to
preclude the possibility of having such
a convenience."-Th Nations Bust

Tired of Tigh Rentals, =
Tenants Eorm Union

Mexico City, June 7.-1ired Of pay
ing high rentals, tenants of Mexico
City have formed union and are
even threatening general strike in
all industries in the capital unless
their demands for rs percent de-
crease in all rents is not met by the
landlords.
The union is recruited from the
lower classes, but is being led by
well-known labor organizers who
have already; staged number of
demonstrations and have announced
that they win resort to violence if
necessary to- achieve their ends.
Street parades are held at least three
times week and several have been
so riotous that police reserves were
called out.
The newspapers Ell Universal and
Excelsior, which have consistently
opposed the union, have been threat
ened numerous times and several
nights ago rowdy gang of low rent
advocates attempted to set fire to the
newspaper buildings. Police were
necessary to drive them off.
The tenants are not at all modest
in their demands. Besides asking
that their rents be reduced rs percent
they also insist that the landlords be
forced to make all sorts of repairt
and installations on their properties.
The landlords assert the demands are
impossible to meet if present high
taxes are maintained by the federal
and district governments.
The idea of lower rents is catch
ing hold in other cities of the repub-
lie, and there is talk of organizing a
Tenants Party to compete in the ma
tional and state elections.

One of South Carolina's
Successful New Industries

Nothing has proved more conclusive
~ the resourcefulness of the women
Of South Carolina than their unpre-
cedented initiative in the business
world during the strenuous years Of
1921 and 1929. They have not only
pursued the various old lines of work
with energy and determination, but
are constantly developing successfully
new fields of endea>Or. They are in
the promotion of the flower industry
of the state, appealing to the aesthetic
side of our nature while going about
the prosaic business of helping to
make a living.
The ladies of Pauline Home Demon
stration club call themselves "The
Dahlia Club" During the past year
this club sold approximately $3.50
worth Of flowers. Most Of these were
sold through the home demonstration
club market in Spartanburg. This
market is known as the Square Deal
Market" This total sum included the
money from the sales of not ONLY the
blossoms, but cuts, roots, etc. Quot
ing from recent letter from Mrs.
Ada Lancaster, one of the eight wo-
men who compose this club, she says,
"Dahlias were the most popular flow
er, then the chrysanthemum, followed
by the daffodil this spring. We would
never have sold this amount without

ty Is known as the "flower lady"
! which attractive title has been ac-
quired through her identification with
the various flowers with which she is
| always surrounded. In recent let
ter to the state marketing agent, she
describes in an enthusiastic manner
her method Of cultivation of sweet
| peas. AS she cleared $500 on seven
rows, so feet long, / am inclined to
believe that her method of cultivation

for flowers during 1921 amounted to
$3.50. Mrs. Harris has the hearty CO.

experiment with sweet peas planted
in the cotton fields. He proposes to
let them climb the stalks and then
have them turned under as a legume
Mrs. Lila Moore Stanton of Mccall

1921 she took in something over $1,000
All expenses including interest on the
original investment of $4,000 are t.

for our state to have horticultural
society in order that there may bc
more interest in flowers as cult

clubs, four of which are in Marlbors
county and one in Dillon. The las,
named club is working on the beauti

These are merely some specific ex
amples of what has been accomplish
ed. They dimly forecast the ever
widening influence of home demon
