the state, but he did so-last night and it was this the Legion took advan- tage of.
 Curtis Green, state commander of the Legion, heard the rumor this fore noon that the governor was in New Orleans. By the time he had confirm ed the report he was advised that the governor had boarded his train for Jackson, and realized the governor had to travel only ninety miles to en- ter the state, so Green got busy. He and his co-workers here telephoned the lieutenant governor to go to Can ton as quickly as possible. Green, Vel borns attorneys and Secretary of the State, Bower, armed with the legal pardon forms, started from Jackson in another car. Both cars drew up to the Madison County court house sim ultaneously and the Lieutenant Gov ernor signed tt>e pardon. The train bearing the governor crossed the line at Osyka at 1926.
 Welborn will be sent to a govern ment hospital in Wyoming where specialists declare, he can be cured of his mental trouble.

LEGION WINS
 VETS PARDON
 IN MAD RACE
OUT OF STATE FOIL ED WHEN ACTING EXECUTIVE IS REACHED IN FoRMER's AB- SENCE.

JACKSON, Miss, September 24- The American Legion today obtained pardon for Sharp Welborn, former service man, and in accomplishing the feat accorded great excitement to that part of Mississippi between Pickens and Jackson along the Illinois Central railroad, from McComb to the Louisi- ana State line. It was race between two powerful automobiles, one from Jackson to Canton, twenty-four miles, the other from Pickens to Canton, 20 miles, and an Illinois Central flyer, with Governor Russell aboard bound north from New Oreleans. The Legion naires had set out to meet Lieuten- ent Governor Homer Casteel at Can ton before the train crossed the state line at Osyka, and they won the race with only eight minutes to spare.
 Governor Refuses Pardon
 Welborn served in the navy during the World War and, according to the veterans Bureau, it later developed he had become mentally defective as result of exposure at sea. In 1919 he committed man-slaughter in Jasper County, and he had hardly begun to serve a sentence of eigh years before the Legion, the veterans bureau and hundreds of Missippians started a campaign for a pardon in order that the offer of the veterans bureau to send him to a hospital where he might be treated, might be accepted. Cover nor Russell steadfastly refused elem ency, and the minutes of every post of the Legion in the state and those in state organizations contain resolu- tions condemning him for his failure to act favorably.
 Governor Russell visited Memphis, Tenn, for day last spring and during his absence the lieutenant governor is sued pardon. The governor counter ed with the declaration that not until his term expired would he again leave

sidies are Imeconomic and are never
effcctual in establishing self-sup-
porting industry. This latter is only
partly true, as the great industrial
operations in the United States
have been built up on subsidies
(tariff). Most of them are certain
~ solf-supporting. ~
The arguers admit that our mer-
chant marine chances are at low
ebb and that something should be
done about it. What is their rem
cdy! The American owner, they
say, must be emancipated from OBJ
structiye laws and must enjoy the
same freedom of operation that his
rivals possess. This is an easy
thing to say, hut who will liberatc
him! 1t is impossible to emancipatc
American shipping from obstructive
laws, because of the attitude of con
gress. The LaFollette element stands
ready to kill at sight any and all
such efforts. 1t is because of this
mpossibility Of otherwise placing
our merchant marine upon q foot.

subsidy is proposed 1t is the
one road out of an impasse

sltion that what must be given to

if the results Of rediscounting were
not profitable.
The pace of business activity and
the tendency towards excessively
rising prices in many commodities
are indications enough that no addi-
tional inducement of easy credit
should be thrown into the problem.
Business, in other words, has gone
far enough along in progressive in
crcasiug activity and rising prices
to warrant, at least, not helping it
to proceed further into the region
OF speculation.
Higher Rate Justified
1t will thus be seen that further
advances in federal reserve rates
would not only not be portentous,
bat are even advisable.
But in such sound procedure the
federal reserve board would not
probably receive political approval.
And that is the serious handicap
fastened upon our banking system
namely, that any attention at all
has to be paid to political influ-
cnces and that judgments cannot be
arrived at and sound action taken
with regard only to what the best
business andi economic considera-
tions demand.
The Best Horn
Our form of government discloses
its most serious defects when it
functions in connection with mat
tcrs related to business or industrial
operations. \ ease in point is the
failure Of the shipping bill. The
business interests of the country de-
manded its passage. Had the ques-
tion been one which great indus
trial corporation representing the
interests of the whole country had
been called upon to decide, the
management would undoubtedly
have promptly put over the subsidy
as Il way out Of bad situation and
the best of the two horns of the
dilemma.
One of the arguments against the
Shipping Bill has been that all sub

our shipping is cargoes, and not sub
sides. No expedient for furnishing
such targoes has been suggested. 1t
is all very well to say that the fail,
ures to secure artificial aid should
induce us To put our merchant ma
rine on u solid basis, with n size
proportionate TO our foreign trade.
1t is like advice to Il tandem of mice
to remove q mountain. 1t cannot be

1t is argued that the American
people do not wish to be taxed to
pay losses on private enterprises.
But they are already taxed, and will
continue to be so taxed, to pay the
$J0,000,0 900 Il year which the ship,
ping board is now losing. The cost
entailed in the subsidy is far less
and would produce tangible results.
How intellectual and meaningless
is the advice that our manufacturers
must cultivate export trade as q
permanency and not merely rs an
emergency outlet for >.rplus and
odd lots. 1t is solely to aid them in
such cultivation that the subsidy
was proposed, and without it the
Plant is fighting barren ground.

COW TESTING
ASSOCIATION
MAKES REPORT
Records Show Valley
Cows Average Well in
Butter Fat

During the first II days of March
q number of very good records have
been made in the Imperial County
Farm Bureau COW testing assoeia-
lion. A grade Holstein owned by
y. Wiser of Holtviilc made s24
pounds OF butterfat for the month.
This is the best record made by any
COW in the association up to the
present time. Buckel Brothers of
Meloland MIXED So cows which av-
eraged 33.l pounds of butterfat
each for the month. This is the
best record made thus far by a herd
of over so cows. Warne and Son
of Holtville MIXED 4S cows, 20 of
which we're first calf heifers and
the average production per cow was
$50 pounds OF butterfat. This il
remarkably good for herd of this
size having so many first calf
heifers.
"a Herds Tested
During this period 81 herds and
1913 COWS were tested. OF these
1918 cows, l65 made 40 pounds or
more of butterfat for this month.
The best herd average Cor this per
iod was made by W. p. Havekorst

which made an average of 39.j
pounds Of butterfat per cow for the
month. i. 6. Reid CT Heber was a

The advance in the New York and
Boston bank rates from / per cent
to Az per cent, is still being dis
cuSsod-- mainly as TO whether it was
a warning or has any other par
ticular significance than that cv-
planned by the managers of the
bank, that its purpose was TO get
the rate in line with that of the
min interior reserve banks which
were already charging 4l4 per cent
for rpdiscounts. 1t is, however, Well
agreed in all intelligent quarters
that the advance in the rate was 4
wholesome move.
There is no question that spec
ulation is capable Of breaking out
in commodities. and, in fact, in q
few OF them it is already exhibiting
some activity. The federal reserve
is still below the market rate, and
this is not in accordance with the
best banking practice.
The reasons Tor this practice may
be readily understood. The federal
reserve supply of credit is intended
to be held in reserve for use in
emergencies or whenver the needs
of legitimately expanded business
evidence themselves. This means
that it should not be made profit
able to banks to vail themselves Of
the rediscount privilege unless in
just such eases.
At the present time the market
rate, we will say, is at "a per cent.
Under pressure from speculative
borrowers it would be profitable for
the member banks to rediseount ut
the federal reserve bank ut AZ per
cent--the margin of difference is,
in fact, an inducement to do so. If,
however, the federal reserve rate
were above the market rate, say at
6 per cent, banks would avail them
selves of the privilege of rediscount-
ing only when emergencies or spe-
cial pressure presented themselves,
and bank would undoubtedly be
more inclined to turn down loans Of
