Columbia, February S.?Governor, Manning toni<rht sent a message to j the general asotmuiy urging them to j pass the Torrens system of land reg-1 I istration. the rural credits bitl,. the j bill providing for the teaching of ag- j riculture in the common schools, the bill raising tne child labor age limit to 14 years the workmen's compensa-.: tion bill and the bill providing for the j certification of teachers. The message' follows: "Permit me to respectfully call your i attention to the importance of press-j ing the consideration of certain meas-; ares cn your calendars, which I deem of importance to the great body of our citizens whom you and I represent. "My reason for this message is that we are approacning the closing days of the session, and I earnestly desire that these matters should not be overlooked. The Torrens System "There have been meetings of citi-! zeri.* in many localities throughout the State, calling on the legislature to j adopi the Torrens system of land reg- j istration and enact the same into law,! Tnis is a necessary prerequisite to a.j system of rural credits. It will reduce expenses in borrowing money on land; it gives the State warrant to title and puts an end to litigation on land titles. Such an act would be a boon to the State, and I earnestly urge its adoption. Kural Credits.. "Forty-three per cent, of our white farmers are tenants. The dream of j the South Carolina patriot i^ to see these tenants become the owners of their homes and farms. If we are to progress we must nelp these tenants j to help themselves in their ambition I to become home owners, and we must j make this possible by adopting meas- j ures hitherto untried, even if this may ' seem radical. The result is important.; I deem it of the utmost importance to take the steps necessary to bring it about Let us not adjourn this session untii tnese two measures are made ? ? i?? a.* into laws. Then our 'vision iur iu-j ture development, will be turned into reality, and our rural population will find full scope for their soaring and elevating ambitions to find realization in a people happy in the prospect of future comfort, contentedness and happiness. Agriculture in Schools. "I earnestly urge upon you the desirability of enacting into law the Toole and LeGrande bill, providing for thp teaching of agriculture in the common schools. Agriculture is the basis of our material prosperity, line common school is the keystone of our educational system. Provide for the teaching of agriculture in the com-j mon school so that agricultural edu-J cation will reach those who cannot get in an agricultural college, and an enlightened prosperity is the result among this large body of our citizens. Child Labor. "The McCullough bill, which pro- j vides for the raising of the child la- j bor age limit to 14 years, is of great importance and should be speedily enacted. The very wording of this bill is the greatest argument in iavor of its passage. The longer the cnila Is kept in school the greater his effi* ciency when he begins work. Workmen's (Compensation. "The bills introduced by Senator! -J Buck and Representatives alius anu j .Johnstone have been carefully worked out, and, in my judgment, will meet conditions existing in South Carolina. There is nothing in tne act that can injure the honest employer or employe; it is a protection to both; it is fair and just to all parties and the sooner it becomes a law the sooner j will our court dockets be cleared, and ! kept cleared, cf personal damage I Qnit? nnri iiistir-p will be done to all! parties. \ urge the enactment of this law. Certification of Teachers. "I earnestly urge upon you the importance of the passage of the Nicholson bill, providing for the certification of teachers by a State board.

Should Eddie Rickenbacher, the famous Maxwell pilot?or any of th( other speed demons of premier fame ?celebrate the first race of 1916 bj rolling 300 miles in two hours or some such revolutionary figure, the result could be nothing more than an American record. Xo such thing as a world's record can be successfully claimed, when the feat is accomplished in the United States, under sane tion of the 'American Automobile association. This strange and anomalous condition arises from the fact that, with characteristic European aloofness the automobile judiciary across th< sea recognizes no performance ir America as really authentic. Despite the fact that many recen American records excel those on th; books of the Automobile Clubs o! Great Britain and France, recent compilations of European records placidly ignore them and still refer to ven ^ / _ - x ? uL ? eraoie European ieais as wuriu s records. Our Dnst Too Thick. The American Automobile association, after vainly trying to secure mutual recognition which would resull in a real table of world's records, has temporarily given up the battle and modestly refers to all marks established under its jurisdiction as American records?only this and nothinf more. One immediate effect of this condition is to rob the endurance c'nam.pion Maxwell touring car of the technical right to claim a world's title The JMaxwell?a stock touring cai ?recently completed, -under A.

Yet the Maxwell can quality merely for ar American record and t'ne stolid Tritons will doubtless continue to regard the Rolls-Royce as the world's endurance champion until its recorl is beaten in the limits of their tight little isle. Were reciprocal rules in operation the Maxwell would undoubtedly be granted a world's record certificate Under its present policy the A. A. A can, however, grant merely American certificate of records. in the meantime, however, there is no occasion for American sportsmen to feel symptoms of peeve.
