NATION LOSING ONE-FOURTH ON OROUTHLOANS Uncle Sam Lends Seed Money to Distressed Farmers but Gets Less Back. Bti Times Special WASHINGTON, . Sept. 2.—The Government gets back only 73 per sent of the money it loan* tc American farmers during drought* and other times of distress, it was estimated at the department of agriculture today. These loans are handled through the agricultural extension bureau on authority of Congress and first came into existence in 1921. In that year $2,000,000 was ’caned to farmers of the North Wes: because of drought. The next year an additional $1,500,000 was loaned. The return since that time has been about 72 per cent, although sevearl good crop years have followed. New Mexico Loan The next loan was In 1924, $450,000 to farmers of New Mexico because of drought. The return on that has been about 65 per cent. In 1926, $244,000 was voted for relief of Florida farmers as result of the hurricane there. While the returns are just coming in, they are expected to be good enough to pull the average of all loans up to 75 per cent. This money is loaned only on condition that it will be used for purchase of seed. It is expended through committees and Government agents, set up temporarily in the communities where the emergencies arise. Bill Defeated The last Congress set up the machinery to expend $8,500,000 In assisting Southeastern farmers, but failed to appropriate the money when the deficiency bill was defeated. Relief to farmers in the floodstricken Mississippi Valley will probably come through legislation in the next Congress along similar lines. Because of lack of Government funds, the agricultural department has set up seed-loan organizations all through the Mississippi Valley, which are being financed with Rod Cross funds and with the assistance of the United States Chamber of Commerce other loans are being made for reconstruction. SOLDIER PRINCE TO REST Henry’s Regiment Will Be Stationed In London This Winter By United Pres.i LONDON, Sept. 2.—Great Britain’.*; “solder prince,” as well as the Prince of Wales, is to have anew London residence as soon as the Canadian trip of t&fe heir to the throne is completed. When the Prince of Wales moves into Marlborough House upon his return to London, York House, his former residence, will be occupied by Prince Henry, King George’s third son. whose regiment, the 10th Hussars,, will be stationed in Lon - don this winter. Prince Henry has been careful to take his leaves from his military outfit only when they have come around and has avoided acceptance of any special privileges. BIBLE SETTLES DISPUTE Pastor Charges Another Clergyman With Altar Fraud By United Press CAMBRIDGE, Eng., Sept. 2.—The Rev. Charles Henry Scott of Ely cathedral, sued the Rev. Montague Hobart Bethune of Lymlngton. He alleged that Bethune had misrepresented the value of an oak altar and equipment sold to Scott for SIOO. Judge Farrant dismissed the case and referred the holy men to the Bible, first verse, sixth chapter of the first Corinthians: “Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust and not before the saints.” SAVED BY MISSISSIPPI Irish Lad Spells Long Word and Escapes Punishment Bn United Press NEWRY COUNTY DOWNE, Ireland, Sept. 2.—Because he was able to spell correctly and to write neatly the name of the American river Mississippi, 12-year-old Paul Raymond escaped being sent to an industrial school.
