Gus relief and housing agencies of
the New Deal and was drafted after
a series of conferences with Presi-
dent Roosevelt. 1t would create
another bureau, with five directors,
including the secretary of the in
terror in his eX officio capacity, re-
ceiving $4,000 salaries. The au-
thority could employ officers, agents,
counsel and other personnel without
limitation as to number or compen-
sation and without regard for the
civil service laws. This authority
would supplant the existing housing
division of the Public Works admin
iStration.
Only S51, 100000 would be appro-
priated for the present, of which
$1,O00,00O would be used for the pur-
chase of the authority's capital
stock, but the bill authorizes appro-
priations of $75,OOO,OOO for the fis-
cal year 1898, $1OO,OOO,OOO for 1889,
and $100,0O0,000 for 1910. In addi-
tion to these authorizations, the au-
thority could borrow $100,00O,0O0
from the Reconstruction Finance
corporation, and sell notes or bonds,
fully guaranteed by the govern
ment as to principal and interest, up
to $100,0OO0OO for the fiscal year
1897 and $15O,OOO,OOO for each of
the succeeding three years. This
brings the grand total to $780,
100000.
The authority would be empow-
cred to make grants not to exceed
40 per cent of the total cost and
loans for the remainder to any pub
lie housing agency for the acquisi-
ton of land and the construction of
"lOw-rent" housing projects. The
loans would be repayable over a pc
riOd not to exceed 60 years. at such
rates of interest as the authority
decreed. In addition to the loans
and grants, the authority could de-
velOp and administer so-called DEM
onstration projects, which "as soon
as practicable' would be sold to
public housing agencies.

Tornadoes in the South
Kill Scores of Persons

TORNADOES tore across Missis-
l. sippi. Alabama, Georgia, Arkan-
sas, and Tennessee, Raving death
and destruction in their wake. About
400 persons were killed and hun
dreds of others injured, and the
property losses ran up into the mil
lions. The little city of Tupelo
Miss, suffered the most, with nearly
200 on the death list and more than
a hundred homes smashed into kin
ding wood.
A few hours later another tornado
struck Gainesville, Ga, and in three
minutes had nearly ruined the busi-
ness section of the town and killed
more than $50 persons. In fires
that followed the storm the bodies
of many victims were burned be-
yond recognition.
The mining communities near Co
lumbia, Tenn, to the north and east
of Tupelo, counted seven dead. Red
Bay, eastward in Alabama, lost five
lives to the merciless wind. Nearby
Bonneville, Miss, had four killed
and Batesville, Ark, suffered one
death.
The tornadoes struck while the
southeast was reaching a final total
on storms which smashed through
that region a few days before, caus-
ing 43 deaths in Georgia, the Caro-
linas, Alabama and Florida.

Lafayette Family Farm
Was Model of Early Days

The Lafayette family owned an
estate known as Lagrange, which
was situated about 40 miles south
east of Paris. 1t embraced more
than 800 French acres, including
park and farm. The farm proper
consisted of 500 cultivated French
acres, which were divided into two
large courts. In the first, writes
DR.. G. S. Plumb, in the Ohio Farm
er, which is the more considerable,
were the sheepfolds, COW houses
stables, hen roosts, a dairy, large
barn, and the farmers home. The
sheepfOlds were spacious, airy, and
extremely clean; and contained
from 1000 to 1900 sheep. Some
enclosures were for the ewes and
lambs, the others for sheep or
lambs separately. There was also

The decision was concurred in by
six justices; a dissenting opinion

Brandeis and Stone, agreed with the
warning of the abuse of power, but
contended that the act of the SEC,
