Work Of the r.. A. o. Corporation

Work of the II. A. q. COFpOfAta0n
The Regional Agricultural Credit
Corporation of Columbus, which II
working to relieve the present
financial distress Of farmers in the
states of Ohio, Kentucky, and Ten
nessee. was organized through the
action Of the Reconstruction Fin
ance Corporation, which was author
lied to create in any Of the twelve
Federal land-bank districts, q re-
gional agricultural credit corporation
for the purpose OF making loans or
advances to farmers and stockmen
to be used for an agricultural pur-
pose (including crop production) /,
or for the raising. breeding, fatten-
ing, or marketing Of livestock. The
law, authorizing the organization of
these agricultural credit corpor-
ations was passed by Congress on
July 21, 1892. Each Regional
Agricultural Credit Corporation has
a paid-up capital of not less than
$3,0O0,000, which is subscribed for
by the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration and paid for out of the
amounts alocated and made avail
able to the Secretary of Agricul-
ture under the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation Act. Each
Regional Agricultural Credit Cor
poration is managed by officers
and agents who are appointed by
the Reconstruction Finance Corpor-
alton under such rules and regu-
lations as the Finance Corporation
Board of directors prescribes. No
fee Or commission is chargeable to
any applicant for securing a loan
from Regional Agricultural Cred
1t Corporation and the only ex-
pense involved is in securing the
little Search Report" the filing
fee for the Chattel Mortgage Sc
curing the loan and for any other
minor expense involved in making
proper application for the loan. The
interest rate is 67a 20 and the loan
is payable at any time within one
year or may be renewed at the end
of that time for an additional per-
iod. if the security is still good.
Application for these loans may
be made by any farmer direct to the
Regional Agricultural Credit Cor
poration, 80 East Town Street, Col
umbus, or by getting in touch with
your local county agricultural agent
if you have one) or local banker.
Attorney r. M. Winegardner, Nc
Connelsville. has been assisting
many farmers in making applica- /
tions for these loans during the I
past few weeks. /
Farmers of Morgan county. who
may need additional money for fl !
nancing their spring crops, includ-
ing the purchase of seeds and ferti-
lizer, or for buying additional food |
for livestock, are urged to get their |
in to the CORPORATION |
as soon as possible, so that credit |
risks may be established and loans
authorized. The money can then be
secured as needed.-XX.

courses would be taken.

and rare, flowers fading upon men

seemed to have become national
sin, and the people were so over

tanned in these three figures is that
of widespread and overwhelming
destruction which took place in the
war with the Assyrians, deceitful
and rapacious people. The complete
destruction Is presented in verses 8
and 4. When laws Of health and
life are violated, the penalty follows
through the natural expression of
destructive forces; the penalty of
poison is death; the penalty of.
little poison is death shock
v. 1. "Belshazzar the king made
great feast to thousands Of his
lords and drank wine before the
thousands" The Bible in painting
the picture of intemperance does
not omit the great rulers; God does
not allow an excuse for anyone TO
violate his laws of sobriety and
temperance.
v. 2. "Belshazzar, while he
tasted the wine, commanded to
bring the golden and silver vessels
which Nebuchadnezzar his father
had taken out of the temple of the
house Of God which was at -Jerusa-
lem: and the king and his lords, his
wives and concubines, drank from
them" This drinking crowd lost
their sense of reverence for that
which was sacred and in this loss
they "were weighed in the balance
and found wanting"

DECISION. NEAR
On BALL

CHICAGO, Dec. 12.-President
William Harridge, of the Ameri-
can League announced today that
a compromise was in prospect at
the annual baseball meetings
here, whereby both major leagues
will use the same type of ball in
1884.
The standardized ball, he said,
would very likely strike a happy
medium" between the three-ply
cover used by the American Lea
que last season and the five-ply
cover that prevailed on all Ma
tional League diamonds, the di-
ference causing the latter to be
known as a dead ball"
The compromise, to be effected
at the joint meeting on Thursday,
probably would take the form of
a four-ply cover, Harridge irti-
mated, thus making the American
League ball little less lively and
the National League ball little
more so. A slight difference in
the stitching still remained to be
adjusted, he said.
It was the dead ball" with
which the Giants won the first
two games of the 1888 world
series, thus gaining an advantage
that the Senators never were able
to overcome.

much diSillusioned young man.
It seems to me that it is when
we are staggering around with
the wounds of defeat and disap-
pointment that we need those
far-famed ties Of fellowship and
loyalty and confidence, but in
college football coaching such
mythical and actually nonexist-
ent ties burst their bounds and
leave one quite out on a limb.
Jess Harper always impressed
me as being a fine, outstanding,
efficient business executive. I
know a score of others in a po-
Sition to know, who have the
same opinion. But we must all
be mistaken. He must be o
bum!
LaSt-Minute Rise
Hunk Anderson's elevens lost
more games of football in one
season than Knute Rockne'S
did in five, but it must have
taken a coach to hold them to-
gether through five defeats. It
must have taken a character
builder to keep the morale Of
those boys high enough and
strong enough to do what they
did in the last few minutes Of
play against Army.
1t takes coach to do that,
my friends. It takes a greater
coach to maintain discipline
and decorum through disaster
after disaster than it does
through victory after victory,
but the colleges, whose main
business it is to steel the
younger generation against the
uncertainties of mature life,
don't think so. They must have
teams that know only how to
Win-not how to lose. College
grid coaching is a cruel job at
best.
So Hunk Anderson too, is q
bum, just like Jess Harper and
whoever picked them out in the
first place, must be a bum as
well. There was a terrible mis-
take somewhere. I rather think
Jess Harper could have re-
manned at South Bend, but
would not do so unless Ander-
son could stay.
And heaven help Elmer Lay
den if his teams don't win.
They're looking for another
Rockne.

nice things about this Sammy
Stein, George washington Uni

At least it's true today, as
Sammy is the talk of the G. w.

Stein was all over the court as
his team easily won in its open
ing game of the season. The lit
tie guard scored seven baskets for
IA points and might have counted
more had he not fed Jimmy
Howell, speedy forward veteran,
passes which turned out to be
points for Mr.. Jimmy.
All in all, G. w. looked like an
unbeatable team last night. True,
they were given no opposition by
Shenandoah, but the manner in
which the team passed, shot and
conducted itself generally gave
the impression that j. probably
will be heard from as the season
progresses.

MACK READY.
To BREAK
NEWS
By DAVIS J. WALSH

ny DAVIS Js WALSh
CHICAGO, Dec. 12.-The Inter
national News Service is informed
today that Connie Mack has
turned back the hands Of the
clock by 10 years and has sold
most of the surviving stars Of his
ball club for the sum of $375 900.
It was away back in 1914 that
Mack, resigning himself to the
inevitable, disposed Of Collins,
Barry, Coombs, Plank, Bender,
and, after brief delay, Baker,
for varying prices up to 100000.
Today, with a single, sweeping
gesture, he is said to have dis
posed of Robert Moses Grove, one
Of the great left-handers Of the
generation; George Earnshaw,
once equally great as o right
handler; Rube Walberg, pitcher,
and Gordon Mickey Cochrane, star
catcher.
Acts AS Manager
The latter has secretly, or other
wise, been the property of the
Detroit club since october and, no
later than yesterday, was acting
as its player-manager on the floor
Of the Palmer House lobby.
Briefly, the transactions already
closed by Mack are said to call for
the following:
Lefty Grove and Rube Walberg
to the Boston Red Sox for $780,
000.
George Earnshaw to the Chi
cago White Sox for a catcher, still
unidentified, and the sum of
$25 1000.
Mickey Cochrane to Detroit for
John Pasek. young catcher, and
the sum of 100000.
The money, it is declared, has
already been paid into Mack's
hands so that he can discharge
certain obligations. said to total
$250.000.
$4,000 For Expenses
This, when paid off. would
leave $25, 900 and it is understood
that Mack intends to use this to
defray the cost of the Athletics
training trip to Fort Myers, Fla.
Incidentally. it is also claimed
that the other interested parties
in these deals have agreed to
await Mack's arrival in town this
morning, so that he can make his
announcements personally and as
he sees fit. The understanding
is that he had decided to clear
himself of the entire program in
one statement. the idea being
that one stunning shock to Phila-
delphia is to be preferred over
series of minor shocks, each
amounting to a vast. throbbing
accumulation.

The field of 10 is being paced

matches are on the program to-

The Washington times., 1933-12-12

In the case Of Jess Harper
and Hunk Anderson, who are
out at Notre Dame with one
fell swoop, or one swish Of the
broom, it was a sort of heart
less gesture, because they were
hailed three years ago as the
pair which could, between them,
carry on as Knute Rockne had
carried on, and either some
body's judgment was bad then
or it is bad now.
Never Another ROckne
If Notre Dame is looking for
another Knute Rockne in Elmer
Layden, they are licked before
they start.
There WILL NEVER BE AN
OTHER ROCKNE.
Sports doesn't duplicate its
immortals.
There has never been a Sec
ond Stanley Ketchel.
There will never be another
Walter Johnson, Ty Cobb or
Babe Ruth.
William C'Bill") Tilden is a
loner.
So was Dempsey.
And Rockne, too.
The fact that Elmer Layden,
a fine young man with a Won
derful playing background, was
successful as a coach at Du-
quesne, doesn't guarantee he
can do any better at Notre
Dame than did Hun Anderson.
think it took a lot of courage
for Layden to turn his back
on comparative security at
Duquesne to gamble with the
tickle football fates at Notre
Dame.
If he was restless at Duquesne
and sought more worlds to
conquer, he might have picked
off for himself a spot where,
whatever his achievements be,
they will not always and eter-
nally be compared with those Of
the greatest football coach of all
time.
The Ties That Break
Perchance Mr.. Layden's breast
is burning with that Unsuitable
desire to take a crack at Knute's
halo, because, after all, it is
something to 60 back to coach
at ones alma mater: but if
those Notre Dame ties don't
hold any tighter than they did
for Messrs. Harper and Ander-
son, Layden might be a very
