ASi To ;;; ii.ii. i;Ki>ris. ]i;is N<-i'iiL<r f?: ni-Ue to Say as Vet Kcjraniiiur Nomination For Columbia I'ostrnasiership. Ihe Stale, 27th. | Representative Lever reached Co-j lumbia frcm Washington yesterday. It j is intimated that he has ccme to take I a final look over the situation in Columbia before making his recommendation to the president as to tne postmastership. As to this he would sa\ only: "I presume I shall hear something of the postmastership for Columbia in my short stay in the city. Those who 4.v :?i. + tno narvnltar iov of LiUiiK 10 ? the congressman are badly mistaken. I have found it a burden and an aggravation to be borne philosophically rather than to be sought after as an element of strength." Representative Lever, since the first week in November, has been engaged with the joint committee of the house and senate, on which he is one of the house appointees, in an effort to devise a workable plan of rural credits for the country. The particular phase of the rural credits subject with, which Mr. Lever's sub-committee has had to do is that of farm land credits. The subcommittee substantia'; ly agreed last Friday to a bill which will go before the full committee one week from today. Rural Credits Legislation. " My work on the joint committee since early in November has been exacting, but I have found it inten sting," Mr. Lever said. "That legislation which will enable the farmer to borrow money at a low rate of interest, the principal repayable in in stallments, is an absolute necessity, is j proved by the overwhelming testimony of all students of farm economics, as well as by study of the results of European systems, some of which have been in operations && long as 150 years. "The bill which will be laid before the full committee provides for a well worked out plan, nationwide in its scope, for farm mortgage credits under strict federal supervision. The! management of the 12 district land! banks, capitalized at $500,000 each, J this stock to be subscribed out of funds ! in tfce treasury of ihe United States,! unless otherwise subscribed within 90 j days from tfte passage 01 me ac^, wuij t>e under the direction of a federal j farm lean board, appointed by the | president of the United States. The f initikl capital stock of the 12 banks i w ill amount to $6,000,000, with im- j mediate loaning capacity of $120,000,-! 000, which will be increased in the ratio of 20 to 1 as borrowers come into the system. "These regional banks will do business with local associations of farm borrowers, organizing under federal I charters, and all applications for loans j are approved and recommended by j such local organizations to the land ! bank. The rate of interest to the farmer will be the interest at which the bonds will sell in tile open market, plus 1 per cent. It is thought tha'. the security back of the bonds has ieen made so strict that such bonds "will readily sell at- 4 per cent, probably less, and this means that the interest charged to the farmer would be in the neighborhood of 5 per cent. The amount which the farmer is to pay upon the principal each year is left optional with the borrower, except! + V* * V, ^ Arl f A r O ] A'l ,1 I LI 1CLL lilt? ilia.VllAlUUl pruuu iv/x a luun , is fixed at 36 years. Provision is mad? permitting land banks to accept time deposits and in certain exigencies to operate through special agencies. Such time deposits may be loaned on shor time mortgages. ! Talks of -Preparedness.'' "We have attempted to adapt to the needs and conditions of this country the best features of the best European systems of rural credits and I believe that the legislation which will finally result from cur efforts will provide u plan which will be both practical in operaiion and of immense benefit in results; while the country is in a furor over the proposition of military preparedness, it is well for some of us at least not to overlook the matter of industrial, commercial and especially agricultural preparedness. These are ;as necessary to the national defense -as are standing armies and formidable -lira vies." -'What do you think of the presi denrs program of preparedness?" Mr. '.Lever was asked. "Oh, I suppose that <cangress will authorize a considerable increase in the army and navy," he said, "as well as an increase for coast I defense, but congress is by no means unanimous on the proposition. Those who have to provide ^e means of raising the taxes to care for the additional expense imposed by this program have the task of a full grown man upon their hands.

I belie, e, too, that the income tax law can be modified in such a way as to provide for a larger revenue, and I would favor, in addition to this a federal inheritance tax." Another Wilson Temi. "Is there likely to be any opposition to the nomination of President Wilson?" Mr. Lever was asked. He answered promptly: "i: the president desires the nomination, he can have it f by the unanimous voice of the convention, and I am inclined to think that the country will demand a continuance of his services during this crisis through which we are passing." Mr. Lever will return to Washington next Monday to be present when the full committee receives the rural credits bill from the sub-committee, and it is understood that he will present to the full committee several amendments not agreed upon by the sub-committee. SUICIDE AT SALUDA. George C. Wheeler Takes His Own Life With Revolver. News and Courier. Saluda, Dec. 26.?G-eorge C.

SUBMARINES' ACTIVITIES FEATURE OF WAR ITEMS ?? i Destruction of 18,000 Tons of Allied Shipping: and Many Lives Looms up as Important Development. The French steamer iVille de la Cio-j tat, from the Far East for Marseilles with many passengers, was torpedoed in the Mediterranean. The loss of life ' is estimated at <Sl>. The steamer was said to have been sunk without warning. Casualties likewise are believed to have occurred in the torpedoing of the Belgian steamer i.Viinistre Beernart, j two bcai loads of the crew of which! are said to be unaccounted for. The activity of the submarines of I the Teutonic allies is further evidenced I by tne fact that within the last few j days they have sent to the bottom j British, French and Belgian shipping amounting to a tonnage of nearly, IS,000. Should the American citizenship of! one of the surviors of the Japanese steamer Yasaka be established the sinking of that vessel by a submarine, it is announced from Washington, will be made the subject of diplomatic negotiations by the American government. The British Indian army corps has been withdrawn from the front in France "for another field of action." Again there has been considerable fighting between the British and Arabs in western Egypt, near the Tripoli border. London claims success for the j British and Constantinople for the Arabs. The British have repulsed a Turkish attack in Mesopotamia. 'The Turkish losses are estimated at 700. The British killed and wounded numbered 190.
