Columbia, S. c., Sept. 7.-Directors
of 88 of the 81 production credit asso-
Citations in North Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia and Florida gath
cred in group conferences during the
months of June and July, reviewed
the progress which their organiza-
tons have made to date and made a
thorough study of the system in order
that they might be even better equip
ped to serve their farmer-members in
the future, Ernest Graham, president
of the Production Credit Corpora
ton Credit Corporation of Columbia,
has reported.
Ten conferences were held in ALL
four at Sea Island, Ga, attended by
directors of Georgia and Western
Florida associations, two at Myrtle
Beach, S. c., attended by South Caro-
lima associations, two at Blowing
Rock N. c., and two at Asheville, N.
c., attended by North Carolina and
South Carolina associations. One
more conference will be held later
and it will be at Tampa, Fla, for six
Florida associations in the fruit and
vegetable area.
Inc attendance at the conferences
were excellent Mr.. Graham said, and
the directors were enthusiastic over
the records which their associations
have made. Nearly all of the associa-
tions reported an increased volume of
business this year.
Among the interesting figures
brought out at the conference were
those showing that twelve associa-
tons in the district have made loans
since organization totalling $8,439, 1877
and have not charged Off a penny.
Many other associations have records
that are almost perfect with charge
offs of less than 500.
"The directors reported at the con-
ferences that their farmer members
were apparently delighted with the
service which their associations are

3. & L. Loans
Of 100000
In This State

The savings, building and loan as
sociations of North Carolina MADE
more than $8,OOO,OOO of home loans
during the first six months of 1888
according to Martha F. Gauldlan'
executive secretary of the North
Carolina Building and Loan League.
30 per cent of these loans were made
for the construction of new homes,
showing the savings, building ana
lean associations were doing their
part to promote trade recovery
through the construction of homes
More than a thousand people purch-
ased new homes during the past year
through the medium of this popular
form of home financing. If the pre-
sent rate of increase in assets is main
tanned the savings, building and loan
associations will show an increase for
the entire year of Is percent, which
compares very favorably with the 16
percent increase shown by the asso-
Citations last year.
With the improved business condi-
tions that exist throughout the year
Mr.. Gaudian predicted that the last
six months of this year will show an
even better record than has been main
tanned the first half of the year.

Chapel Hill, Sept. TEN years of
hard and persistent work and per-
sonal sacrifice eliminated in the an
nouncement today by Albert Coates
that the Institute of Government will
build in Chapel Hill the first city
county-state governmental demonStra-
ton laboratory in America. Contracts
were signed today and construction
will begin at once.
The building will be the home of
the Institute of Government and is to
be situated on Franklin street, racing
the University of North Carolina
campus. 1t will be of Colonial brick
design with four floors and 20 rooms,
including offices, assembly and ex-
hibit rooms, training schools and CLUB
rooms for public officials.
The building is designed to house
practical working governmental Ia
boratory to which present and future
generations of public officials may
come to see demonstrated in one CEN
ter the governmental practices scat
tered in 100 county courthouses and
some 300 city halls. Some of these
methods" said Mr.. Coates, "are better
than others and through the collec-
ton, comparison, and demonstration
of these methods and practices this
laboratory will help public officials
to raise the standard of governmental
performance by lifting the poorest
practices to the level of the best"

giving Them" said Mr.. Graham, "and
offered as proof the fact that the as
sociations have grown each year in
membership and in volume of bust
ness. The thought was expressed by
many of them that the special char
acteristics of agriculture and the eff
feet of these characteristics on agri-
cultures credit needs made necessary
the establishment of a permanent
specialized system to provide short
term credit to farmers, and it was
their belief that the associations
would continue to grow as more farm
ers learn of the credit service they
offer.
PERSONALLY, think that one of the
prime reasons for the success of these
farmers cooperative short-term Gre
dit institutions has been the close at
tention which their directors have
given to them"

ed five more in process of liquidation,

homes following the lead set by Hyde
Chowan, Cherokee and Mitchell.
Camden, Gates, Greene, Henderson,
Jackson, Perquimans, Transylvania
and Yancey counties are now main
tanning their almshouses for less than
ten inmates.
The public assistance program for
the aged and needy and the expense
of maintaining institutions with a
