"13" HOLDS NO TERROR

That the number thirteen holds no

Friday, the thirteenth. In his latest
picture he again proves himself i'm
mune from superstition by donning
brass buttons and answering to the

Both OF his recent pictures have
won such big popularity that Mac
Lean has become superstitious about
the luck-bringing powers OF "13" and
says that he intends to begin mis-
next picture on the thirteenth
day of the month and have thirteen
scattered all the way through the

Farm Loan AssOcia-

Washington, June 10, 1924.-The
Federal Farm Loan Act provides a
way of getting mortgage loans for
farmers at low rates of interest, at
lengths of time to suit the borrower,
and on easy terms of repayment. Ten
lows may unite to form national
farm loan association. If more than
ten get together, so much the better,
states Circular No. 2, issued by the
Federal Farm Loan Bureau. The low
est sum any farmer can borrow is
$100; the highest is $4,000. If a
farmer has mortgage on his farm
and borrows money from the land
bank, his mortgage lien must be the
first thing paid off with the money.
If any surplus of his loan remains, he
can apply it for the purchase of fer
tilizers or live stock, the construction
of sllo, the building of barn, the
erection of poultry houses, or for any
other purpose which Will improve the
farms value. But if farmer has no
mortgage on his farm and desires to
borrow for improving it in any of the
ways mentioned above, he can borrow
money from the land bank, of his dis
trict. by giving Il first mortgage on his
farm. The mortgages may run not less
than five years nor more than forty
years. This system of rural credit Of

Washington, June TO- 1924.-When
Secretary of Labor James J. Davis
said, in addressing the Pennsylvania
Federation of Labor: 81 will place the
record of Calvin Coolidge on labor
against that of any man who has ever
occupied the presidential chair or the
governorship of any state" he gave
voice to a sentiment which will stand
before the closest scrutiny of all
Americans, and, particularly, those
who, by their daily toll, are producing
Americas industrial and agricultural
OUTPUT. which is sought by the whole
world.
1t will be remembered that Governor
Coolidge, as chief executive OF the
Massachusetts commonwealth, was
more than anyone else, responsible for
the enactment by that state OF the
first legislation which prevents the
employment of women and children
for more than forty-eight hours in
any one week. Despite the war which
was waged by various Massachusetts
employers against this legislation,
Governor Coolidge stood firm in bring
ing about relief for women and chill
dren workers, saying that he would
rather be known as the governor who
signed the forty-eight-hour bill for
women and children than to be known
as the governor during the police
strike.
Even before that time, as a member
of the Massachusetts legislature, Cal
vim Coolidge had been active in press
ing for legislation beneficial to work
ing people. First-aid equipment in
steam and electric cars and around
railroad yards was finally provided by
legislation which was adopted during
Governor Coolidge's incumbency. Leg
islation empowering the state insur-
ance commission to require insurance
companies doing business under the
workmen's compensation act to deposit
sufficient cash with the state treas
urer to meet emergency obligations
and thus protect the interests of dis
abled workers and their dependents
was finally adopted under Governor
Coolidge's administration. A bill pro-
viding for an annual vacation for
state laborers, wOrkmen and mechan-
les was passed during Governor Cool
idge's administration, after being re-
;oa.od for cavaro1 yporS
1t is already more than apparent,
since his elevation to the position of
chief executive of the United States,
that President Coolidge has lost none
of his keen appreciation for the well
fare of workers. Rising, MS most Re
publican presidents have, from the
ranks of Americas everyday folks, the
President understands their needs,
and, realizing that those human mass
es form the bone and sinew of great
nation, intends to see that the com
pensation of good government is given
in return for their labor and their
loyalty.
The S,053,22 Negro workers, who,
during the present administration,
have become more permanently allied
with American production than ever
before, should rejoice at the prospect
of President Coolidge's reelection.
These workers.. with their ever In
creasing solidarity, their full recOgni-
ton by organized labor, their rapid
inclusion into the high trades and
crafts of industry, their highly-favor-
able impression upon American EN-
| ployers, and their great contribution
to the country's output, undoubtedly
