The Broad River mills, at Blacks- 1 hurg, has posted a notice that they * are closed indefinitely because of poor 1 market conditions. It is one of the 1 Hamrick chain, of which three aro * ?hut down by strikes. . k At Farm Credit Administration Columbia, May i,~g. m. Garwood, production Credit Commissioner of the Farm Credit Administration at Washington, a Columbia visitor today said that the volume of business done by the production credit associations in this district, comprising North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida, and in the whole country the first three months Qf the year was 20 per cent above the first three itfWhs of last year. In the country as a whole these associations loaned farmers over $66,000,000 in January, February and March of this year, Mr. Garwood said, the largest amount in any similar period since the organisations w?re started. Production Credit Associations make short-term loans for production, harvesting and marketing of crops, and livestock products, breeding of livestock and general agricultural purposes. "It is particularly pleasing," said Mr. Garwood, "to know that the farmers are taking advantage of the cooperative production credit system to help themselves out of debt and that they are increasing in number every year to build their own credit system. The increased volume of business is not due to the individual farmer borrowing more money but to more farmers coming into the system. ' "It is also pleasing to note in this district that in handling the increased volume of business there has been no increase in the expense of the corporation or the associations." Mr. Garwood complimented the directors of the production credit associations saying that they are doing a splendid job in making and collecting loans and that much of the responsibility for the success of the associations is due to their efforts. He added that it is "our continued purpose to simplify procedure and speed up Bervice of the borrowers and to place more responsibility for the operation of the associations in the directors." ' Many farmers are buying for cash this year that have not bought for cash since the depression, Mr. Garwood said, and he predicted that with the continued improvement in farm conditions an increasing amount of costly time purchases will be shifted to cash' financing through production credit associations, banks, and other Institutions equipped to handle farmars' short-term credit needs on a business basis at a reasonable cost and an terms suited to the industry.

STEVENSON The past: the ulghl of June 4, 1020, 600 distinguished end well-known guests, each of whom had received an Invitation and paid $10, attended the opening of the Central Park Casino, which had been taken over by the Dieppe corporation. That corporation had ou Its governing board none other than Anthony J, Drexel Blddle, JrH Wlliiatn Rhinelander Stewart, Jr? and Adolpb Zukor, James Walker, then mayor, was present and so many nights thereafter that the Casino In no time at all became known sis "Jimujy Walker's night club." Society flocked there and the corporation prospered. An Investigation conducted some time after that auspicious opening showed that in four years It had collected more than 13.000.000. But' us most of that great groan came from the pockets of the rich, there hadn't been much complaint. Still, there were those who thought the city should get mors than $8,500 a yeur as Its share. The present: Among those who cherished that thought was Florello U. LutfUardia, who was making a campaign for mayor. He charged that the Dieppe corporation was so greedy that It even took a percentage' of the waiters! tips. Besides that, the playground of the public Central park was no. place for a swanky euting place, LaGuardla was not elected that time. He ran again and was. His choice for park commissioner was Robert H. Moses who held ideas similar to those of bis boss. So he promptly ordered the Casino to close up. The matter got Into the courts, the corporation holding that as the contract didn't expire until 1030, It intended to stay. It lost the tirgt decision. Now It has lost an appeal and the Casino, the scene of so many brilliant affairs, is to be torn down to make a playground for youngsters. No compromise: The principal complaint against the Casino concerned prices charged for food. As a sort of concession, 8tdney Solomon, suave manager, offered price reductions. The cup of coffee that had once cost 50 cents was reduced to 40 cents and the $4 table d'hote dinner to $3. But Commissioner Moses couldn't see any -bargain for the people at those rates and kept up his tight. * Age in a hurry: * At the Pennsylvania terminal, your correspondent overheard an .argument between a snappily dressed woman who looked to be well past seventy despite the work of an efliciftnt beauty specialist, and two equally snapfriiy dressed young women, who were apparently 1 her granddaughters. At any rate, the older woman was all put out because her family had insisted that she go down to Florida by train Instead of by plane I Fooling chlselers: New York city policemen who take the examinations for sergeants now must pay a fee of $5. Up until a short time ago, there was no charge. A check revealed that a lot of cops who took the examinations really had no hopes of passing but had discovered that fooling around with lead pencils and papers for a day or so was a lot easier than walking beats. Incidentally, policemen not only have to buy their own revolvers but the ammunition they shoot In practice and at crooks us well. Factual matter: The reason the great seal of the^ city of New York bears two flout; sacks is that once upon a time focal millers had a monopoly on bolting all the flour exported from this country. The reason for the two beavers is that there was a time when New York city wus the fur trading center of the New World. e Boll Syndloti*.?WNU Sorvtco. eft Soviets Report Increase in Population in Cities Moscow.?Pegged on a census polled In 1020, population is on the upgrade In the Important cities of the soviet nnlon, according to figures released by the government through the central department of statistics.

I Noted Engineer On Famous Record Run Buffalo, N. Y., May 2.?Forty-three yearn uko next month Charlie Hogau drove "Old 999" ut the then unheard of locomotive Bpeod of 112.6 miles an hour?and he hasn't talked about It yet. Eighty-six now, and still a railroader, Charlie always changes the subject when someone asks to hoar his story of the world-famous run. Reticent to the point of brusqueness, his longest comment Is supposed to have been that "It wasn't much; 1 just happened to be at the throttle that day," "That day" was May 10, 1893, and Charlie Hogau was In the cab of the Empire State Express on a New York to Buffalo run, which the New York Central had announced as the first high speed distance run In America. The Central wanted to beat the records of Britain's famous trains. It built 999, added eight-foot driving wheels for extra speed, put Hogan In the cab and announced an average Bpeed of "better than 60 miles an hour" would be maintained. Officials of the line, who were his passengers, were dismayed when the Empire pulled Into Syracuse half an hour, behind schedule, but Charlie promised he would pull Into Buffalo on time. He did. He drove those 160 miles faster than they ha^d ever been covered hefore, reaching Buffalo in slightly un (lor three hours after a atop at Rochester. He pushed 999 to a world's spued record to do it. On the straightaway between Betuviu and IlulTalo he "opened her up" and held his top speed of 112.5 miles an hour for u measured mile- and became a celebrity in less than 85 seconds. ,' Old 999 was retired In 1931, after almost 40 years of service. Five years ago railroad officials ordered her hooked on the Empire and asked Charlie to take the, throttle. When he brought her Into Uuffalo two minutes ahead of tlmo, ho looked from under his shaggy. brows, suld simply "good" to drive her again and went back to his desk as manager In the department of shop labor. Last year he went to see the Commodore Vanderbllt, the world's first stream-lined steam locomotive,. When he found out he would have no rest until he said what he thought of It, he said, "It's great." Th,e New York Central sayi? Hogan's 112.6 miles an hour has been surpassed only three times, in 1904 by a Philadelphia 4k Reading train, which hit 116.2 miles an hour over a four-mile stretoh; by a Union Par clflc train which reached 120 miles In 1934, and by a tier man stream-lined train timed at 119.1 miles last year. ewpw?wwem???MP??
