One Acquitted;
One Convicted
Jacksonville, Fla., Oct. 16.?George
W. Courson, who testified in the
sweat-box murder trial that his attitude
toward Arthur Maillefert, young
prisoner, was that of a benign father,
wa? found guilty of manslaughter today,
but the jury accepted JSolomen
II igginbot ham's story that he applied
the golden rule in handling Maillefert
and acquitted him.
The two former guards were charged
with first degree murder for the
death of the Westfield (N. J.) youth,
strangled to death in a sweat box at
Sunbeam prison camp last June 3,
his feet in stocks and hanging by
his neck on a chain locked around a
rafter overhead.
The jury deliberated only two hours
and 16 minutes. The verdict waa received
with no demonstration in the
court room and even without, visible
effect on Mrs. Julia Maillefert, mourning
clad mother of the dead youth.
Mrs. Maillefert, silent but often weeping
quietly as stories of tortures alleged
to have been inflicted on her
son -were told from the witness stand,
had sat at the stateV counsel table
through the two weeks of the trial.
Counsel for Couiison fUed notice of
an application for now trial as soon
as the verdiot was read. The 285pound
former captain of the camp
where Maillefert died said he "hoped
for better luck at the next trial."
'Higginbotham, younger and much
smaller, was automatically released
by the verdict. -?Miss
Cureton at Fountain Inn
Fountain Inn, Oct. 16.?.Miss Mary
Cureton, of Camden, came to Fountain
Inn Saturday to take charge of
the overflow in the second grade of
the Fountain Inn school. On account
of crowded conditions a new room has
been added. This is being occupied
by Miss Cureton and her pupils.
The Robins building at Gaffney,
occupied by a large retail store, was
sold on salgsday by the clerk of court
and bid in by a bank for $4,100 subject
to another mortgage of $5,830.

Home Loan Banks
Opened Saturday
Washington, Oct. 14.?The government's
newest machinery designed to
aid economic recovery and relieve
pressure on its citizens begins operatione
tomorrow.
Throughout the nation, the federal
home loan banking system created by
the last congress "will begin to function
with the 16! regional banks opening
their doors to receive applications j
for loans on home mortgages.
"Foreclosure of sound home mortgages
should cease," said the federal j
home loan board tonight in a statement
which described the banks as
intended "to liquify millions of dollars
of frozen home mortgages and
bring relief to the harassed home
owner."
"With an initial capitalization of
$134,000,000," said the "board, "the
twelve banks spread over the entire
country will tap a reservoir of more
than* $1,600,000,000 of potential home
financing credit, x x x , ,
"Pressure on the building and loan
associations, savings banks, insurance
companies and other types of home
financing institutions handling longterm
mortgages should let-, up and
thus the home owner, through a resulting
easement of the general homo
mortgage situation, should benefit."
BIENNIAL ENROLLMENT
The state Democratic executive
committee has adopted a resolution
recommending to the next state convention
that it provide for biennial
enrollment of Democrats for the primary
instead of quadrennial, as the
rule now is. Biennial enrollment has
been the practice until this year.
It would undoubtedly be well to
return to the old rule. The enrollment
every four years makes for confusion,
results in duplication and.
fcrs opportunity for repeating at the
primary which should be more carefully
guarded against. A new enrollment
preceding each election clears
the whole record and it is more readily
impressed upon the voter that he
has to qualify. It is not easy to remember
whether or not one has enrolled
when there is an overlapping
and a good many Democrats doubtless
are disqualified because of a persuasion
that 'their names are on the
rolls= from the previous enrollment
when they are not so recorded. There-can
be no mistake when it is known
that everybody must enroll for each
and every primary election. The
state committee's recommendation is
wise and should he adopted by "the I
party at its next convention.?'Charleston

College Safe Broken,*
Yields Large Sum
Raleigh, N. C., Sept. 26.?Breaking
the lock on the safe in the treasurer's
office at N. C. State college here,
robbers early today made away with
approximately $8,000 in registration
funds and receipts from last night's
football game between State and Appalachian
State teacher's college.
The robbers tore away a heavy
wire screen and pried open a window
to gain admittance to the- office.
They used implements to break the
lock of the safe. Police expressed
the opinion the robbery was the work
of professionals.
The money, $7,000 in registration
fees and $1,<JOO in football receipts,
was placedi in the safe shortly after
11 p. m. last night. The robbery was
discovered about 8 a. m., today when
A. F. Brown, treasurer of the school,
visited his office. He immediately
notified police and Dr. E. C. Brooks,
the president.
Dr. Brooks said heavy insurance
against robbery always carried during
the registration period expired
at noon .Saturday when the bulk of
the money from freshman registration
had been deposited in down-town
banks. Late collections had been
placed in the college safe for depositing
Monday. j
? The college carries $3,000 insurance
throughout the school year f?rj
protection against the stealing of
ca?h that may be on hand in the ^
treasurer's safe, Dr. Brooks said.

Byrnes Predicts
Roosevelt Landslide
Washington, Oct. 14. ? Passing
through Washington today enroute
from New York to his home at -Spartanburg,
3on?|or James F. Byrnes
said he was more confident than ever
of a Roosevelt landslide on November
8. The junior iSouth Carolina senator
has been in New York for conferences
with Governor Roosevelt,
Speaker Garner, .Chairman Farley, of
the democratic national committee,
and other prominent democratic leaders.
While in New York (Senator /Byrnes
delivered a number of speeches at
democratic functions. One of his addresses
was at a banquet given by
Chairman Farley for a number of
New York democrats at which nearly
$100,000 was raised for campaign
funds. Asked what he thought of
Roosevelt's chances to carry New
York state, Byrnes said all presidential
polls showed Roosevelt in the lead
and after talking-with many political
observers he was confident that tho
straw voting reflected the sentiment
in tho Empire state. Byrnes said the
main battle ground for the democrats
during the remaining weeks of the
campaign would no doubt be in Illinois,
Indiana and Ohio.
tallies will be held in every county
in 'South Carolina during the last
week before the November election,
the Democratic campaign .manager]
for this state, R. M. Cooper, announces,
in an effort to get out a full vote.
The center of the big rein covering N
the South on Saturday night and) Sunday
wae in the Oarolinas, Greenville
had six weeks 'of normal rainfall compressed
into one day, and its weather
bureau measured seven inches of rain
in 24 hours. This was under the record
there of seven and a third inches
in 1918, on October 24-25, in 24 hours.
The rainfall at Columbia was two and
a half inches. At Spartanburg it was
five ami a third inches. Rivers, creeks
and streams all over .the Piedmont
rose rapidly and much, and some lowlands
were flooded. Great benefit was
given the power companies which
have been suffering from low water
all summer, and soahe of them using
steam auxiliary power for months.
