't?SBTfl ?? iw <i MANY FARMERS ASK FOR LOANS Federal Land Bank Files Application*?From Four States Applications for farm loans for more than $27,000,000 have been filed with the federal land bank in this city since the bank resumed operations after a period of partial inactivity during which the constitutionality of certain sections of the law having to do with the bank were being tested in the United States supreme court. These applicatoflns come from fpur states, as fold's: North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. The bank began receiving loans March 15, 1921, and since that time the loans have 'been coming in rapidly. At the present time the bank has a force of 16 appraisers in the field and also a force of five men under training. Approximately 75 new loan associations are being formed in the four states, though none of them have yet been completely organized. The prospects for a busy year are good, according to H. C. Arnold, secretary of the institution. " Applications have been received as follows (South Carolina farmers have filed applications to the number of 2,267 foj a total amount of $9,085,288; North Carolina farmers have filed 1,694 applications for a total of $5,405,001;..Georgia fanners have filed 3,243 applications for a total of $11,456,362^ Florida farm era have filed 521 applications for a total of $1,116,266. Mr. Arnold, in speaking of the ibank and its work salid yesterday that low prices for farm products had the effect of sending men back to the farm and that high prices for farm products tended to increase the movoment of population from the country to the city. Inflated land values, he said, do not benefit the farmer unless he sells out, as the increased value means that an increased amount in interest must be yielded to cover the increased captalization. Pawners are taking much interest in the operations of the bank and its forces are facing a busy year.? The State. BUSINESS MEN TO BUILD HOMES FOR TULSA DESTITUTE Tulsa, Okla., June 4.?Definite plans for building homes for the thousands of negores rendeired destitute 'by the burning of the negro quarters here in the race war of Tuesday night and Wednesday were being worked out today by a civilian committee of relief.

N Washington, June 4.?-The census committee of the house at its meeting just held here took an important step and one of vital interest to the entire country regarding future apportionment of the members of the house. Commenting on the action of the commitee, Congressman John J, MeSwarin of South Carolina, a member of the committee, said: "The census committee has in charge any legislation affecting the reapportionment of membership in the htJuse. The action of the committee fixed a policy and ooufse of procedure to be followed. It was decided that instead of entertaining DianKet cnarges supported by hearing testimony, there must, first, be introduced a bill or resolution directing an investigation aa to some particular election dn some specific state or states, where. it is claimed that male citizens hare been denied the right to vote. Then testimony will be heard only from those who know the facts. It can be easily seen that such procedure wil-1 confine those who compain to the facts and to the truth of each case and will shut off reckless and unfouded charges that originate in prejudice and suspicion and are calculated to intensify feeling but can do no good." * nn/vttr^t V.AVTTH rUKVbO IN IRELAND WILL BE INCREASED London, May 31,?Mr. Lloyd George, the prime minister, announced in the House of Commons today that it was proposed to strengthen the crown forces in Ireland, and that a statement would be made to parliament on the subject when the arrangements were completed.
