The security for a _„ U a lien against the crops or AMtock financed, plus a lien on '«gb additional crops, livestock and ¦nonal property as may be deemed Sittisary to adequately secure the IggL tttt time of maturity of these It depends upon the nature of _ enterprise financed. Loans for inducing a crop are due when the ¦ ind Is sold. Feeder cattle and hog * are to be repaid when the Uve¬ stock financed U sold. Payments on dairy and poultry loans are made on a monthly basis out of the pro¬ ceeds of the dairy and poultry pro¬ ducts sold. Dairy loans are made for a period of one year, subject to two annual renewals, giving the farmer three years to repay the loan. Each application is considered on Its own merits and an effort Is made to work out with the applicant him¬ self a loan that will adequately meet his requirements and be of maximum value to him. One of the chief fact¬ ors considered by the loan committee Is whether or not there Is a sound, normally workable plan of produc¬ tion and repayment. Loans are made only to farmers who have de¬ monstrated their ability to produce. The management of the association is in the hands of the directors themselves. They have elected their own ofBcers and loan committee. Notes approved by this committee are discounted by the Pederal In¬ termediate Credit Bank of Balti¬ more, Md.. with funds derived from the sale of their debentures. No funds derived by appropriation • taxpayers money) are loaned to the farmer. This Is an eflort to place In the hands of the farmer himself a per¬ manent system of handUng his cre¬ dit needs. It is under the guidance of the Production Credit Corpora¬ tion of Baltimore, and subject to rules laid down by the Farm Credit Administration at Washington. It is tuned to a farmer's needs and means of repayment rather than to the thirty, sixty and ninety day dis¬ count system of commercial banks. hoCAL SCOUTS TO CANVASS EVERY I, HOME IN THE COMMUNITY FOR CLOTH- 1 ING AND FURNISHINGS FOR NEEDY Naaaretii U be Solicited tlUa 8atar«ay together are urged to make early contacts and get started as quickly —^— I as possible In order that the canvaaa In carrying out President Roose- nu^y i,^ thorough. mlS't call for service we are now „ ^ „^ necessary to eaU atten- IMdy to start the most intensive ^^,^ ^ ^,^ Importance of thU pro- mmAign ever conducted to this, j^ ^,^ to us by the President ol ^^^.S"S!!^^J^^^\'*>* ^»»»«* ^^' We «. sure H tmmiAe so participate and do ^ .^ ^^ ^ ^ ^„ ^^ ,emyiwng pos^le In Uje collection ^^ part to make the effort success- «( ctothlng and furnishings m this ^^ j^ .^^ ^^„^ ^, -Mrrncy to help humanity. ^roop.

MASKED HOLDUP MAN CAUGHT IN ALLENTOWN Believed to be "Slim" Kaaffnuwi Who HeM Vp The Broad Street Theatre Last Satarday Evening For the second time within four years, the box ofllce of The Broad Street Theatre was the scene of a hold-up at about 9:30 o'clock Sat¬ urday night. The bandit wore a brlllUnt green mask, holding It over his face with hts left hand, pointed a gun with his right at Mrs. Maur¬ ice Searles. cashier, saying "come on, pass It over". Mrs. Searles res¬ ponded by handing him wrapped sil. ver money, but the bandit pushed It back, saying, "give me the notes", and "hurry up". He took the notes, amounting to $83.00 In his right hand In which he held the gun and Immediately started North from the Theatre, dodging past the Frable Oil SUtion and Into a black Stude¬ baker sedan which was parked fac¬ ing west on Centre street. By this time Mrs. Searles sounded the burglar alarm sUtloned lit* the booth of the ticket ofllce, calling the manager. George Meeser, who at once pursued on oot and was within sixty feet of the man when he got Into the black sedan and drove off without lights. Mr. Messer followed the car on Centre street on foot, saw It tum to the left at the Circle and go south on Main street. The bandit knowing that he was followed took every precaution to avoid Identifi¬ cation, but Mr. Meeser saw him nevertheless, and can give a good description of the man as well as thc car in which he escaped. The bandit wore a brown overcoat, tan hat and was about five feet, ten Inches tall; a rather long neck and a fast runner. Due to no lights being tumed on when the car sped away It was Impossible to get the license number. . Mr. Meeser being unable to get a car to ft^ow the hold-up man, call¬ ed the local police sUtlon and ofllcer Marrow was the tlrst on the Job. The County detectives were notifled as well as the Wind Oap, Pen Argyl, Bangor and Easton police depart¬ ments. Intormatlon was given to State Troopers and the prompt co-| operation ot the County's officers^ raaulted in the apprehension ot| "Slim" Kauffman at Allentown, on Monday. The aid given the County. authoritiea by Mr. Meeser In des-} crlblng (hU boUUup caused the, authoritiea to suspect Kauflman as the man who did the Job. Word was received Tuesday by' Mr. Meeser Irom the Reading Bar-1 racks to appear and identify Kauff¬ man, who Is behig held there on many other charges of bold hold¬ ups. Mr. Meeser, Morris Frable, Oeorge Stocker and Mrs. Searles motored to Reading, accompanied by detective Trout, In an effort to Iden¬ tity Kauffman as the man who fled trom the box ofllce last Saturday night. However, atter viewing Kauflman to hU cell there, it ap¬ peared a problem to make the Iden- tUjr. Kauflman Is a man six feet. two Inches tall and very slim. Being dressed to different clothes than were worn by the man who held up the box OtBce and appeartog much toller than ormer descriptions, it was impossible or either of the witnesses to Identify Kauffman as doing the Job. So many other charges are now being held against Kauffman that no more are needed to put him where he belongs for many years to' come.

A. Monday, March Sth. The culinary department ot the "Y" served a deUcious chicken dtotwr. PresldenU Shlmer and Henry Joint¬ ly presided. Oroup singing led by H. Yelaley with Charles Hess at the piano. A Glee Club from Lafayette College rendered a number of selec¬ tions In a pleasing manner. Fred Hunt totroduced the members ot the glee club as weU as the guest speaker, who was WiUiam Mathers Lewis, president of Laayette CoUege. President Lewis gave a very to- terestlng 15 mtoute talk. Uklng as his subject "Education'. He stated that Educatkm U an Industry, tak¬ ing rank with any ot our present day todustrles and has always met any demands placed upon It. The earUer schools produced educators and teachers. Shortly, after the close of the ClvU War the Technical schools developed and later at the close of the century the women's colleges were developed. President LewU stated that the youth of today has as great, oppor¬ tunities as at any time, but that they must be taught to live at a later date. A person learns to live by actuaUy living, and that education must mean translation of knowledge toto wisdom. President Lewis pointed out that the tragedy of life is not that llf^ ends so soon, but that life begins too late, and that youth must be ta\ight to contribute thoir share as they go along. There were over a hundred mem¬ bers and gue.sts present but diU' to the large nu:nb.M- of guests the in- [ tnxhirtion of gue.sts was dispensed I with. PASS THE TONIC, UNCLE! Indastry Needs Aa R. F. C. Toe Industry was smitten by the de¬ pression as much as anything else. The shrinkages and deprecUtlons that swept through the Und hit not' only the banks, railroads, tosurance companies, etc., but sapped the| strength of the great creative force of Industry, upon which nearly everything else in America depend¬ ed. There would be no banks, no raU¬ roads, no Insurance companies with¬ out todustry and the mUlions of doUan In payrolls It provides. Those Institutions are well off only when Industry is well ofl and of course they are sick when industry U forced to bed. But when governmental llrst aid came It went to the banks, railroads, and Insurance companies. Agricul¬ ture, Just as essentUl to the nation and Just as hard hit as Industry, re¬ ceived help, too. but nobody took the trouble even to diagnose the trouble with Industry—tlie creator ot Jobs and buying power. Having given these otber agencies proper treatment isn't It time Doctor Uncle Sam went toto the next room wUh that bottU ol reatoraUve tonic? Pederal k>ans, it they are a cure for these other leUows, wUl oertatoly put Industry on lta leet. With that much accomplished, with Industry able to work agato and employ more people. Uncle Sam need no longer worry about this puz¬ zling malady. Moreover, he won't have to worry about collecting the blU lor his services and that costly medictoe, either. The solution Is obvious. An R. P. C. for Industry wiU not only restore the buytog power of America's mU¬ Uons ot industrUl workers, but through thU tocreased distribution of wealth will build up a greater pu¬ bUc confidence and a more wide¬ spread prosperity than we have ever known before. LOCAL FIRE UNDULY COMPANY CRITICIZED NAZARETH COUNCn. STOPS CWA PROJECT; MONEY RUNS OUT At a specUl meeting of the Naza¬ reth borough councU on Thursday i eventog to consider the CWA pro- Jecta that are belnc undertaken.! Chief Burgess P.. P. Hahn reported that the CWA funds for the local comfort station are exhausted. The councllon voted that the work' should be dlsconUnued for the pres-' ent time on the comfort project un-1 tu the addlUonal funds that wera applied for on thU project would be received. The money Is expected from Federal headquarters In a few days. Hie other projecta which have received the Federal approval are betog pushed forward to com¬ pletion. The chief burgess also reported that he has received many com- platoU from citizens on the over¬ head water discharge from prop¬ erties to the business and other aec-^ tions of town. He stated that the main reason was the fact that the roof spoutlngs are run over the pavement at a height of six to eight feet and when the pipe or spout-1 ing freezes with the change of weather, this cauises the water to drip on passing pedestrians. The nieiiibors expres.s<^d their opinion of tho matter and also voted to have the police committee notify property owiiers who do not comply with thc ordinance governing spout¬ lngs. < Raaiors CireuUted Aboat Service by Volantcer Company on Recent Fire are Erroneous and Unfonnded A lire starting at 11:15 Ust Friday morning to the home ol Hunter Frey, 126 Locust street. In a very short time threatened to destroy the entire brick row ol eight dwelUngs. Mrs. Prey, due to Ulness, was con- lined to her bed at the time and the only other person to the house was one ol ber three chUdren. a five- year old eon. Mrs. Frey was not aware ol the flre which It is beUeved I started on the first floor, until she [ detected dense clouds ol smoke emto- attog from the stlrway. She imme¬ dUtely tried to gain entrance to the lirst floor, but the fUmes drove her back and she and her llve-year old son sought saiety by Jumping Irom the second-story wtodow. Neigh¬ bors cared lor Mrs. n«y and her son untu the arrival ol the ambu¬ lance when she and her son were removed to the Sacred Heart Hospi¬ tal. Allentown, lor treatment. Both reoeived severe bums about the arms, but according to reporta re¬ vealed by the examination at the hospitai Mrs. Preys tajurles received Irom Jumptog are more serious than the bums. WalUce, the son has been released from the hospital. It U leared that Mrs. Frey may have toJured her hip from the tall and WlU be retained at the hospital untU exrays may be taken. The criticism that has been direct¬ ed at the local Flre Company regard¬ ing their response to this fire have been traced and found to be false. The facts are as follows: The flre started at approximately 11:15 a. m., last Friday, a telephone call to the local operator was received at that time and conveyed to the Flre De¬ partment, through the red-light police signal, promptly. The alarm was sounded at 11:25 and the volun¬ teer men were on the Job at 11:35 with pUnty of men at the hose and a weU directed stream on the flre. But, the entire first floor and part ot tha second were already prey to the names at 11:35 and the flre had gatoed such headway by the time the local meif got there that no possible chance to save the Frey home was evident. However, calls were sent to the Easton, Stockertown and Tatamy flre companies and all responded promptly and were a great help in confining the flames from spreadtog to the adjotolng homes. The taet thst much criticism has arisen regarding the promptness with which the local Flre Company responded to the recent flre has pro¬ vocated toterested cUlaens to the potot ot numerous arguments. How¬ ever, very Uttle substantial or con¬ structive criticism can be had from heated argumenta. I Any cUlzen of the Borough of Nazareth who is not a member ol the local Fire Company and wanU to criticize the method ol fire light- < ing by our local acUve members, should either Join the company and give them the benefil of his know-, ledge, or make sure he Is not "sling-' Ing" a boomerang. Past records show that the local Plre Department. has perlormed excellent work, thatj many active members have shared the expense of fires in burned cloth¬ ing and many bruises and have al¬ ways lent a willing hand without any remuneration whatever. Common .sense and good Judgment are clo.sely linked. If Nazareth waiif.s prompt service In our Flre Department, which Is now constitut¬ ed wholly of voluiiteer men, why notj pav nt least threo men the year round to sit at the flre house in three' eight-hour shifts the year round. Tliat IB the only sure method by which prompt service can be had. It is impossible for one man, the Fire Chief, to spend twenty-four hours a day at the flre houae and do police duties at the same time. It Is alao cell lying unconscious to a pool of blood. It is believed that the man attempted to take his life by bat- tertog his head against the iron bars of the cell. He Is suffering from a fractured skull and other head injuries. His condition in the Easton Hospitai is reported to be critical. It was shortly after 7 o'clock on m^s Saturday night that the man came' to police headquarters and inquired where he could get a night's lodg¬ ing. There was nothing unusual about hU condition when be was given shelter and he did not appear to have been drinking. The plight of tbe man was dis¬ covered by Ofllcer Clarence Riss¬ miUer when he visited the ceU room about 10 in the eventog.

Yet, such are the con- I ditions here and there Is no remedy other than a paid department. Now then, suppose council should decide to change these conditions and do what some of the town's critics propose; the ultimate result would probably be an increase in the town's payroll of approximately $3,600.00, annually. Whether this , increased expense to the Borough dered the man to be removed to the hospital. WHO IS THE CHAM¬ PION SPELLER OF NAZARETH This question wlU be decided at an old-fashioned spelling bee to be held at the Nazareth High School on Friday eventog. March 16, be- glnntog at 8 o'clock. The contest Is open to all citizens of Nazareth except teachers or pupils of the schools. The wtoner of this contest Is ex-i pected to compete in the county con-1 , better it our local Plre Department ^« *^'<=*\.r!i ^ *>'*li?), ^^J^\ I had mon cooperation and there 2f^«»> auditorium on Friday March seems to be a lot ot logic to that. At this point It Is well worth jmentlontog that If Nazareth had a Bulldinc Code, or If fire waUs bet¬ ween were so constructed to conform with buildtog codes of other towns; the spreadtog of flames in this re¬ cent fUre would probably have been prevented. However, as the flre wall in this brick row extends only to the attic, which Is constructed of would result to the proportioned in¬ crease in efficiency would still be a question. One man on a fire tmck I speeding to a lire at a moment's notice without proper help, or volim- - teers. would certatoly not help mat¬ ters to any great extent. Authentic rumor has it that it would be a lot 23rd The wtoner of the county contest wUl go to Harrisburg to compete to the state contest.

It depends upon the nature of
_ enterprise financed. Loans for
inducing a crop are due when the
¦ ind Is sold. Feeder cattle and hog
* are to be repaid when the Uve¬
stock financed U sold. Payments on dairy and poultry loans are made on a monthly basis out of the pro¬ ceeds of the dairy and poultry pro¬ ducts sold. Dairy loans are made for a period of one year, subject to two annual renewals, giving the farmer three years to repay the loan.
Each application is considered on Its own merits and an effort Is made to work out with the applicant him¬ self a loan that will adequately meet his requirements and be of maximum value to him. One of the chief fact¬ ors considered by the loan committee Is whether or not there Is a sound, normally workable plan of produc¬ tion and repayment. Loans are made only to farmers who have de¬ monstrated their ability to produce. The management of the association is in the hands of the directors themselves. They have elected their own ofBcers and loan committee. Notes approved by this committee are discounted by the Pederal In¬ termediate Credit Bank of Balti¬ more, Md.. with funds derived from the sale of their debentures. No funds derived by appropriation • taxpayers money) are loaned to the farmer.
This Is an eflort to place In the hands of the farmer himself a per¬ manent system of handUng his cre¬ dit needs. It is under the guidance of the Production Credit Corpora¬ tion of Baltimore, and subject to rules laid down by the Farm Credit Administration at Washington. It is tuned to a farmer's needs and means of repayment rather than to the thirty, sixty and ninety day dis¬ count system of commercial banks.
