Mr. Gibbes' plan would bej to give the money derived from the; hunter's licenses to this school for i the purpose of improving the prop-, * erty and providing for a larger num-!* ber of scholarships each year, and to jc establish on the place a great game I sanctuary, where all kinds of game 1 and birds still extinct in the State is * safe from molestation. He thinks ( such a game sanctuary would pro-' vide a safe and desirable breeding j 1 ground, and would result in prevent-j* ing many varieties of birds from be-|1 coming extinct. He would forbid 1 all hunting on the place, except that < the pupils in the school might hunt rabbits and squirrels in season. Gov. j * Cooper is inclined to think well of' < the suereestion and may incorporate' 1 it in his next message to the legisla- < ture. 1 The plantation upon which the,1 school is located was bequeathed to, 1 the public for a school for poor chil- J dren more than 100 years ago by Dr. John De La Howe, a native of France * who settled in Abbeville County a-! 1 long with many other Huguenot ref- (1 ugees. The school was operated for! < many years by self-perpetuating 2 board of trustees, and, while it has 1 prospered at times, has often suf^ J fered from mismanagement and oth-' * er causes. Several years ago the leg-1 islature took over the school and is ^ < now responsible for its operation and ^ maintenance. The school is open to J1 a limited number of poor boys and 11 girls who desire an education which 1 will fit them for farm life, and if the < plan suggested by Mr. Gibbes is a- 1 dopted the school can be made ofI < much greater usefulness without an I increased drain upon the funds de- t rived from State taxes, and at the 1 same time a game sanctuary, which t is badly needed, can be secured."?.* McCormick Messenger. (i UNDERWOOD'S PLAN FOR THE RAILROADS ? a f Washington, Sept. 5.?Establish- v ment of a governmental commission a or board with powers to fix both rail- j road wage scales and transportation j was advocated in the Senate today ' x by Senator Underwood, of Alabama, f a Democratic member of the Intjer- t state Commerce Commission. Without disclosing whether he fav-; f ored the Interstate Commerce Com-! mission as the proposed tribunal, or discussing the Cummins bill's plan to c prohibit strikes and lockouts of em- ^ ployes, Senator Underwood said the j interests of the public, of capital and; x of railroad employes require such a! < plan. It is clearly within the right . of Congress, he declared, to create an < agency to determine wages as well as ^ rates. "Men will not strike," said the Ala- j bama Senator, '"against the just de-; ^ cisions of the government. After a1, | ? fair determination of the controver- 4 . - - . ... i * sy by an impartial tribunal, public' sentiment will force the contending parties to aceept the verdict render- I ed as finaL It must be done in the' t interest of the men involved, the in-1 _ dustry 6f the people and the peace! of the nation." the rights of the whole people against The tribunal he proposed, Senator; Underwood continued, "must have i the authority anl power to protect' the recurrence of strikes and lock-j outs." Disturbances of transportation. he said, affects the whole pub-! lie and therefore railroad employes] owe obligations in their action differ-j ent from those in private industry. | But One Way Out. j,1 "There is but one way out, in myi judgment," he continued, "and thatj is to appoint a tribunal with the | power to adjust these matters,"! which has the time to consider and| the opportunity to know the facts.; Such a tribunal must not only have I the power and be prepared to do j what is right and just by the labor' i employed on the railroad but must; * have authority and power to see that; property is not confiscated by its de-| cisions, for, should you confiscate! I- > L-o.; ' t: cne property 01 me transportation i companies you would break down, a the channels of transportation asj o effectively as you would break them j s down in a strike with the resultant! tl I injury to the people. A tribunal of this kind must also have the author- f ity and opportunity to consider the1 b rights of the shippers and travelers j who in the last analysis will bear any; t< ncreased burden that falls on tHej :arriage of property or persons overi he transportation lines. SEED CRUSHERS AND ! i FARMERS CONFERI ______ ! rnlnmhia K If tlio manf. i J ng of the crushers, seed dealers and <j farmers, held in Craven Hall today (] it the call of Commissioner of Agri- j :ulture Harris, the seed situation was c iretty thoroughly discussed. A call J )f the roll showed seventeen farmers, (j "our seed dealers and forty-four f :rushers present. Mr. Cassels, of Alabama, formerly , vith the cottonseed division of the (f :ood administration in Washington, j f vas present and suggested a working e >asis upon which farmers and crush>rs could get together. With Mr. Harris as chairman there ? vere representing the farmers on the j. committee, L. D. Jennings and W.: Dabbs, of Sumter; representing the lealers, C. C. McAlilly, of Cheaper,' ind E. W. Abel, of Saluda; represent-1 ] ne the crushers. J. J. Lawton. of!d lartsville, and Russell Acree, of ? Darlington. It was agreed that the working cost!| igured by the food administration' ast year, of $15.50 per ton, be al-J owed again this year; that $2 per ;on, the same freight, be allowed this fear, and that the profit to the mill j je calculated at 5 per cent of the1 *ross returns from the products fromj i ton of seed. | The committee figured 5 per cent > the present gross products for the preen condition of the cotton seed low going to the mills in arriving at ;hat price and before calculating the | nills' profit. Based upon today's juotations of the products the price >er ton of seed was fixed at $70 in :ar lots for prime sound seed at ship-' jers' points, and $67 per ton for wafon seed, $3 per ton being the com-' nission allowed dealers same as last he mills was $3 flat per ton, which >* m A/tfl rli/1 r? nf ol_ IA many maiaiitcs uau nw ze, owing to failure of the adminis-| ration to provide a market for hulls tnd linters at the stabilized price, rushers wished a rate of 6 per cent ,nd the fanners on the committee * inally agreed to a 5 per cent rate, " rhich on today's market figures is ? ibout $4.50 profit per ton. Should I rices go down tike profit would be ess; should they go up the profit vould be more. In both instances the armers would get more or less, as he case might be. >UGAR SHORTAGE CAN'T nr* ipirpn CAAM DL l\LUbT?U JWll Washington, Sept. 5.?Sugar j shortage now experienced in many jarts of the country cannot be re-j ieved for some time to come, George Zabriskie, president of the United States Sugar Equalization oBard, aid in a letter received today by Senator Hitchcock, Democrat, Ne-! )raska. "The demand is enormous and' argely in excess of refiners' ability ;o supply it at this time," said Mr. Zabriskie.
