Letters, short articles, poems, humorous incidents, will be printed, with or without the contributor's name, as you prefer. The conference which President Roosevelt and his advisers are holding in Washington with Mr. I.itvinofT, the representative of Soviet Russia, are focusing the attention of this country on the mooted question of the recognition of Russia by the United States. Many commentuiors have assumed that the mere exchange of letters between the chief executives of the two countries necessarily implied our consequent recognition of the Soviets. This does not uppear to be the correct view of the situation, President Roosevelt in his invitation to Mr. Litvinolf spoke of the "serious but not insoluble" questions between the two countries.. *We may feel sure* that President Roosevelt is well aware of the vj'ta.l matters that must be satisfactorily settled before this country can advisably assume diplomatic relations with Russia. Our international relations- as our. domestic affairs are in safe and capable hands, and we may confidently trust that what is dope in either sphere by the kindly, courageous man in the White House will prove the light course to follow. ? * * 7 j The first motion picture to be produced in South Carolina and one of the first to be made in the Kast in some time will shortly be filmed, it is understood, in Camden, S. and the adjacent country. The screen story will be based on "Dark iuirrendcr," a story about the South and the pr esfcit day, by Ronald Kirkbridc, in collaboration with Dixie Hoykip, of 'Hoykin, S. C., near here. It was published this year and received a number of favorable reviews, among them being some pf the rep-; resentative Southern papers. The picture will be produced by the "Seven Seas Corporation, of Holly wood, of which William Flske is the head, it is reported, and if present plans mature, Paul Robeson, the actor who starred in "Kmpcior Jones," will play one of the leading rules. There will be about twenty-five people in the company which will be brought South and the remainder of the cast will be. provided by some two hundred and fifty local colored people. The scenes will be mainly orl th?! Boykin plantation, where the action of the book takes place. Dear John McCormack: We have just been listening to you ..singing with that golden voice of yours the songs of olden days, the songs that never grow old. A-nd we want to thank you for thfe pleasure you have given us, not this evening only but many others as well. The first time ,we heard a concert over the radio, it was you With Mine. Dori who sang. And wasn't thiyk-" fine beginning!. . . , We have heard you j at Carnegie Hall, too, with the people I overflowing the great concert hall and packing the stage, and we have heard you immortalized for posterity by that other miracle, the phonograph, and we've listened to you singing at the Metropolitan Opera with till its glamour, But J, think we like best of all to hear you pour forth in unstinted measure your gift of song in Voicing the joys and the sorrows, the aspirations and the praise of that great liUle island whence you came to us, that fair land of Ireland, that "little bit of Heaven." Sure, it's u benefactor of your fellowman you are, John McComma;, and we think n many thousand of your listeners are wishing all fair fortune to you and your lady wife. The Chronicler. Seminole Indians 1 Appeal To Richard^, * >.... < Lancaster, S. ('., Nov. 1,?The daily routine of a United States Congressman often leads Jiini into strange paths. He Is confronted with every I ] conceivable proposition-and i* expect--! ? ed to "hear all, see all and know all." Hundreds of pleas arc continually he- j in^r made to him fur jobs, assistance and advice along every line. Ihit.j^ once in a while, among these pleas, something out of the ordinary, some problem of human interest, comes to ( his attention. And thereby hangs t this tale. . It see jus that up to the month of j .June, 11)33,'a band of Seminole In- , ,diana, among the original and right- ^ fill owners and inhabitants of this great domain, were quietly and peacefully pursuing the even tenor of their ways on a government Indian reset- j vat ion in Florida, placed there by a grateful government in payment fori the \ast areas of territory taken | a away from their noble f of bears, the original pure-blooded Americans th< 0 Indians.

IE C. Form 1jm The term "marks" us used in paragraph 12 to include lags. In this connection warehouse receipts, need not state grade in' their written or printed terms but must state weight. in connection with the provisions of paragraph U? lending agencies and subsequent holders of eligible paper will necessarily have to carry a riftk as to the uninsurable portion of the loan in eases- where insurance coverage cannot be obtained for the full amount of the loftn. This risk should ho small in view of the fact that, such lending agencies and holders will doubtless know the quality of the cotton pledged as collateral to paper held by {hem. "Eligible, cottpn" as used in paragraph 1. Round bales are eligible. Middling tinges and strict low middling spotted cotton acceptable on same basis as low middling. v "Producer" as used in paragraph 1 includes share croppers. The following' interpretations hpvo also been made of certain terms used in the loan agreement, C. C. C. Form A: * The terms "federal agency or instrumentality" as used' in paragraph 7, includes the Federal Surplus Relief Corporation or any other corporation, substantially all of the capital stock of which is held directly or indirectly by the United States, but does not of course include American Cotton Cooperative Association or other cooperative marketing associations. The term "within walls" as Used in the warehouseman's certificate and waiver, paragraph 1, means within a structure floored or erected upon a platform suitable for the storage of cotton for a period of one year and enclosed in such manner that cotton is adequately protected from weather damage. Henry D. Green, County Agent. Garden Club To Meet The November meeting of the Camden Garden Club will be held on Monday afternoon, November 43th, at 1 o'clock, at the residence of- Mrs. Tv J. Kirkland. mediately interested himself In the appalling state of-affairs into which these Seminoles had been so unsuspectingly thrown. Gazing at ^im Tomniie, his mind drifted back to his boyhood days and he envisaged other heart-breaking, stirring Indian scenes that he had read through the pages of "The East of the Mohicans" and other similar Indian stories. By telegraph he urgently appealed to the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs at Washington and to the Seminole Agency, Office of Indian Affairs, at Dania, Florida. On the following day. October 31, he received the following wire from Hon. J. L. Glenn, of the Seminole Agency at Dania, Florida: "Thanks for the information. Wired relief to 'Sam Tommie, Seminole head." This relief \va.< most probably in th form of transportation and care back to their peaceful reservation in Florida. And now, through the efforts of an interested while man and th-ough e alertness and sympathetic interest of a i'i>ngre>?mfin and a government who i- yet willing to care for the pn..ul remnants of a once powerful and thriving ra e of people.
