KEEP LIVE-STOCK OFF RAILROAD RIGHT-OF-WAY Annual Lots Approximately $60,000.00?Representatives For County Appointed. The Press and Banner ia in receipt of the following with a request for publication: Editor Press and Banner, The loss of livestock killed on railroad rights of way fs excessive in the South, being double per mile the loss in the West and triple the loss in the Northeast The annual drain in South Carolina runs approximately to $60,000.00, In ordinary times this would be <? mof+oi- Kohuoon tViA individual a ill C?

For whether peace comes in three months or twelve, America must ' - * --?* I continue to feed* tne worm ior an-i other year at least. Furthermore, j since the railroads have been taken j over by the Government, payment j of stock losses must be paid by the Government, which of course, falls on the citizens. The South Carolina Council of Defense, aided by the Food Administration, with the cooperation of j the railroads, has undertaken the j important task of cutting in half the I inexcusably large losses in South' Carolina. We have mailed to all stock claimants an appeal to shut their stock! away irom the railroad tracks. Wei have also appointed special volun-l teer stock agents at every railway i town and city in South Carolina.) These men will work under and with their County Councils of Defense. Their endeavor will be to reduce as I much as possible the wastage inj meat and leather, and to secure the passage and enforcement of ade-' Equate stock laws wherever needed.
