Coolidge Message Treats With
‘"Symptoms Only/ Charged
By Cordell Hull
NO REMEDIES OFFERED
i
Passed Up Chance To Aid Coun
try By Failure To Analyze
And Suggest Measures
WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.—Presi
dent Coolidge's message io congress
is “standpat” and "reactionary,”
Cornell Hull, chairman of the Dem
ocratic national committee, declar
ed in a statement Thursday night.
Its outstanding feature, y he assert
ed, “is a bid for the presidential
nomination in 1924, and the support
of the predatory special InteTsts
in the campaign to follow,” and it
“treats only of symptoms and of
these in a most perfunctory man
ner.”
“The message,” Mr. Hull add
ed, “wjll please the special inter
ests and strengthen President Cool
idge’s chances for the nomination.”
“Instad of visualizing,” the state
ment said, “and analyzing develop
ments and conditions, political, eco
nomic and social, since the war, af
fecting the welfare of the nation
at home and abroad requiring leg
islative action, and proposing con
structive remedies therefore, Presi
dent Coolidge has sacrificed the
greatest opportunity of his life to
political expediency. by delivering a
message to e.ingress, the outstand
ing feature .of which is a bid for
the presidential nomination in 1924
and the support of the predatory
special interests in the campaign I o
follow. Instead of dealing with the
nation’s ills, the causes and the
remedies in a comprehensive and
enlightening way, the message
treats only of symptoms and of
these in a most perfunctory man
ner. It is a standpat, reactionary
message, didatically asserting that
he favors and what he opposes wit’.’ i
<fut supporting either the positive |
or negative measure with any line '
of r<vucn’mg or argument, or j
'. tijuedial suggestion.
‘Neither in its reference to nn-1
tional or international affairs is ‘
there a human note in the mes 1 i
sage.”
BAINS RENDER RIDING RISKY !
IN QUITMAN DISTRICT
QUITMAN, Dec. 7. Continued
rains which fell on the roads near
here recently have rendered them I
almost impassable except where I
they arc paved and dangerous to i
motorists. Places where the sun 1
has dried the ■water out has left I
hard sun baked clay with deep ruts
and in other places there are bogs.
Traveling through the deep ruts and
numerous holes is both difficult and
dangerous.

"Sue Dear,” a musical comedy,
which is receiving the recommen

Rylander theater, is giving one per
formance at that theatre tonight
and it is being classed as one of
the truly real treats of the season.
The show has been receiving the

newspaper in the South where it
has appeared this season, and tne
Birmingham Post declares it to be
the equal of “Blosom Time.”
“Sue Dear” is presented in Amer
icus with the exafit company that
entertained New York for six
months, and the Rylander is for
tunate in securing such an attrac
tion for its patrons.
TOM MIX AT THE
IRYLANDER SATURDAY
| In "Stepping Fast,” in which Tom
Mix appears at the Rylander on
I Saturday, the action starts in the
' ruins of the cliff-dwellers who
I formerly lived in the Arizona des
‘ ert. Mix plays the role of a young
i cowboy who goes to the aid of a
1. scientist when he is attacked by
I three*. After driving away the at
tackers, the ' stranger tells the
i ranchman that he holds the secret
’ of a hidden gold mine which a
band of international criminals are
trying to locate. The scientist
dies and wills the cowboy a half
i I interest in the mine and tells him
■ I that his daughter in China is to own
' the other shares. The incident starts
i 1 serie of thrilling adventures
which carry the rancher -across the
; Pacific to Hong Kong and back
again to the Arizona mine.
On the program with "Stepping
Fast” will be shown a Century com
i edy, ‘Tips,” and Williams Duncan
; in the latest chapter of “The Steel
I Trail.”
A glove for controlling night
i traffic, with an electric lamp which
' can be made to show a red or
| green light by pressure -with the
I fipg.ers, has been designed by a
Plymouth (Eng.) policeman.
AT DUDLEY S
OPERA HOUSE TODAY
Do you remember the hair rais
ing fight in that old picture, ‘The
Flame of the Yukon?” Do you re
call the cheer-provoking baseball !
moment in “The Pinch Hitter,” one |
of Charles Ray’s early pictures? I
d- you bring to mind the tense |
football moment in the film version I
of DeMille’s ‘‘Strongheart,” Robert
Edeson’s famous s.hge starring ve-:
hicle? You may often have longed'
for another such blood tingling en.--|
tertainment. Well, it’s coming to
you in “The Vengeance of Pierre,”
which opens in the Opera House to
day. In this production, Lester
Cuneo, the six-foot athletic star,
is seen as a North woodsman wrest
ler, and he goes into a rough and
tumble mix-up that is going to
travel down film history with these
other athletic touches of fame. It
Is a bout that will lift you off your
seat. It comes in the first feel,
and after you wipe the nervous
perspiration from your brow and
settle back in your seat you will
enjoy four reels more of tense
drama with fine characterization
enatced by a very well chosen cast
of players including Francelia Bil
lington. Henry McCarty has pro
vided a story that elicits our praise,
but he has given us a fight that
fairly makes us love him.

$182,C00,C00 Already Loaned
To Planters During 1923,
Convention Is Told .
NEW YORK, Dee. 7.--“ The in-1
creasing amount being loaned to i
American agriculture by the life'
insurance companies shows the
changing economic conditions in
this country,” said Vice-f resident
Lee A. Phillips of the Pacific Mu
tual Life Insurance company, of
Los Angeles, at the 17th’ annual
convention of ’the association of
Life Presidents here
today. “These conditions are tend-
ing steadily to increase the amount
of capital required for the average
farm and the proportion of that
capital which must be found by
borrowing on mortgage. It is a
matter of cold, hard fact that a
farm mortgage is, in these days, a
necessity for the young farmer and
a support, without which he can
hardly succeed.
“A net increase of more than
$182*,000,000 during the first ten
months of 1923 in the life insur
ance companies' holdings of farm
mortgage loans shows the present
trend of life insurance’s contri
bution to the enlarging needs of
the agriculture sections of the
country. The net increase of the
life insurance companies’ holdings
in this class of security during the
entire year of 1922 was $147,000,-
000. Thus the companies have
loaned far more to agriculture in
ten months of this year than in all
of 1922. A conservative estimate
of the increase for November and
December of this year will bring
the total increase of the companies
holdings for the year well beyond
$200,000,000 —double their average
annual increase in this class of se
curity for the eight years ended
with 1922. The total of farm
mortgage loans held by 52 of the
leading life insurance companies as
of October 31, 1923, was $1,636,-
000,000, as compared with $647,-
000,000 at the end of 1914.
“Life insurance funds consti
tute the greatest single factor in
financing the agriculture of the
United States. For 50 years they
have been an. important resource
of the farmer seeking financial as
sistance. Today we find most of
the 280 life insurance companies in
the United States sending a portion
of their reserve funds to the agri
cultural sections. The smaller
companies naturally loan on farms
in their home states and in contigu
ous territory, while the larger com
panies dispatch these funds to
i many —sometimes complete-
■ ly across the country.”
Among the instruments used by
up-to-date dentists are scalers, ex
plorers, pin vices, “revelation” burs
chisels, and pluggers.
