II. Thomas, secretary of the state high way department, in discussing today the value of the new act. Data on the outstanding features of the law have been compiled by Mr. Thomas, for the highway commission. ?'When other states, adjacent to South Carolina, enact similar laws," Mr. Thomas added, "a large percent age of automobile stealing will cease." The purpose of the law, at outlined hy Mr. Thomas is: "To protect the title* of* motor vehicles within the state; to provide for the issuance of certificates of title and evidence of registration; to regulate purchase and sale or other transfer of owner ship; facilitate the recovery of motor vehicles stolen; to provide for the regulation and licensing of certain dealers in used and second hand ears; to prescribe the powers and duties of the state highway commission, and to provide penalties for the violation '?f the provisions of the law." After next December .">1 no cer tificate of registration or license plate will be issued to a motor vehicle owner, unless the owner secures a certificate of title or gives satisfac tory evidence that such certificate has been issued previously for the vehicle in question. The signature of the owner will be required, with the issuance of each license plate, or cer tificate <>f registration, and tin-' cer tificate will l>e carried by the opci i ! or <>f th? i ar at all times, and rj the ca>e of >a!e the original owner '?hall erdor 0 *.h? certificate to t lie ? < \\ owner.

COLUMBIA LUMBER & MANUFACTURING CO. MILL WORK SASH, DOORS, BLINDS AND LUMBER PLAIN A. HUGER STS. Ph??. 71 % COLUMBIA, S. C WHO Wil l, BE SPEAKER? liiue Perkw I p Many Month* Ahead Of Time. Columbia, .July An intoiestinc; little political situation has arisen in connection with elections for the legislatuie, ami while it i- a half year until the legislature begins to mobil ize, still the ropes are feeling the tug and the wires are being pulled. This has to do with the election next January of a speaker of the house of representatives, and interest in it has increased with the recent an nouncement" by Mendel L. Smith, of Camden, formei *peakei of the house ami former circuit judge, and often special associate justice, thut ?ie is to offer for the house of representa tives. Hut Judge Smith is quoted as say* iriK he does not want to be speaker, if he is elected this year. The names of three membres of the house arc mentioned as likely candidates* for the speakership, Kdgar A. Brown, of Barnwell; Dr. Olin Sawyer, of Georgetown, ^nd J. K. Hamlin, of Union. All were prominent members of the l!>22-2.'{ house and all are can didates for re-election. Judge Mendel L. Smith served as speaker of the house a dozen years ago and was one of the best speak ers that body has had in recent years. He is very cool and self controlled when presiding over even the stormiest sessions. He is learned in the law and the rules, too. As soon- as lie announced for the, house this year his name was mentioned in connection with the speakership. His friends have talked to him about it, and it is generally conceded that if he is elected to the house and if he offered for the .speakership, he would be elected. However, he .says he will not be a candidate. Judge Smith is quoted as saying he wants a seat on the floor of the house, if his campaign is successful; that he has certain taxation ideas he wants incorporated in measures which he proposes to champion, and he feels that he can best- serve his county and state this time, if elected, as a mem ber In the ranks of>the house. The new speaker will succeed Thomas S. McMillan, of Charleston, who is a candidate for congress and is not asking re-election to the house. Mr. Brown, of Barnwell, is a lawyer. He is chairman of the state demo cratic executive committee. He has been in the house since 1921: ? Dr. Sawyer served in the house from 1907 through 1912, and returned again for the 192^-24 session. Mr. Hamlin has been a member of the house since 1!'17. He was speaker pro tem for the 192:1-21 session. All three of these men have presided over sessions of the house. All have been promi nent committee members. Another interesting announcement in connection with legislative politics ? A ? is the announcement ol representative. Kugene S. Blease, of Newberry, of his candidacy for the state senate, against Senator Alan Johnstone, of Newberry, who i.s president pro tem of the upper branch. \ cotton crop of 12,1 1-1,00(1 hales tl.i- year was forecast yesterday by the agriculture department.
