PLAN TO FIGHT WEEVII OEFENDEB ST HASTINGS Chairman of Committee on 801 l Weevil Conference Re plies to E. L. Worsham Mr. H. (4. Hastings. chairman ,of the chamber, of cominerco oommittea on boU weevil congress, has written a carj jn reply to State - Entomologist E- D- Wor sham, in which lie defends the plan adopted hf’the recent boll weevil con ference for • organizing 'rt tight against i the insect,-and deciares that there was no such thing as a- “.secret session” In connection with the conference. His card in fyil is..net follows: As chairman of the committee on the boll weevil conference of the chamber of commerce, 1 ■ regret excedfngly the controversy bfoTifcht ’ofi, presumablj? by Htato Hntomolcwixt Wurkham, as« lie ft»- Is'wers tU , i- ,, ard issued by;, the chamber of commerce published. \in Sunday’s papers, 'l would paF if?v further littenfion' "to the matter weiwtt rtvU for two statements of alleged- fact-U»y Mr. .VVvysljain and-on which his whole criticism seems to l>e based.

COMPANY JsO ed or plans adopted or suggested be yond that carried by the resolution authorizing sub-organizations in each of the 45 senatorial districts of Geor gia. Those of us who have been able to talk over this matter during and since the conference agreed that it was a matter for great deliberation and care ful thought, and this will be given it Those of u» who have been associated in this movement realize fully its mag nitude and the necessity for the most careful consideration of all phases .>f it. The Atlanta conference did n»t con template a farmers’ organization, neith er did it contentplate an organization of the state or United States officials. It did contemplate a working organization that would be effective, free from personal ambitions and jealousies, an organization that would carry out a great work by bringing about the 'jest of co-operative effort between the bus iness and agricultural interests. The interests of Georgia are greater than the interests of any. one depart ment or departments, greater than ny one ■ man or set of men. ft was and is the object of our committee to bring about the fullest co-operation of the business and agricultural interests rtf Georgia with the various state and federal agencies, at work on this prob lem. itis a large enough problem for all and we regret very much to see that one of the state departments has assumed a position of criticism based on sometbihg that has never exist ed. At no-;time since this conference wgs suggested.has gny specific, plan been either adopted or suggested by any-> body heyonu tliat relating to perma nent organization; and that suggestion capip IJrom member ..of the chamber of commerce, was pfes»-nted in the form of a resolution by another mem ber of the chamber, and fivi? out of the nt-nt. organization an members, the oth ers being Mr. E. Cabniss. president of > the Farmers’ Union of Georgia, and Dr. Hardaman, of Commerce, one of the most progressive farmers of Georgia and a trustee of the State Agricultural college. • ‘ i The gentlemen on this committee are competent to work out a sensible plan tor an- effective working organization and they are broad minded enough to recognize the value of co-operative ef fort of all -the different agencies that can be brought to bear on this prob lem. If we are correctly informed, the lack of proper co-operation in most of the states -west of us has greatly ham pered this fight on the boll weevil. We want to avoid this in Georgia if possi ble, and we believe it would have been nothing more than wise on the part of our critics to have been sure of their facts before criticising the Atlanta con ference for something that did not ex ist. If Mr.. Worsham or any one else wlw felt himself aggrived had come and. asked for information he. could hkve gotten It straight. BANKERS BEHIND FARMERS. Ore of he mam objects which the chamber of 1 commerce had in bringing aF>out a permanent organization of this kind «ae> to get the business men of Georgia’’ solidly behind the farmer in hi-j tight with the boll weevil. It wae said by Commissioner Blakleslee, of Mississippi that one of the most seri ous difficulties the farmer had to con tend with was the withdrawal of credit by the. bankers (>•• supply merchants who were unnecessarily alarmed. Th-' result of such withdrawal of credit was to reduce the cotton acreage vety great ly. Commissioner Blakleslce said that in one county in Mississippi 1,7 X» negro families left the county because of the abandonment! tots cotton culture. Once the labor has departed, it is very difficult to get it back and the bankers' and supply men see the error of their course, when it is too late to .oriect It. This u precisely the condition we wish to avoid in Georgia and for that reason it is desired to have the permanent or ganization composed very largely of business men who are interested in the crop and are willing to stand by the farmers with unfaltering courage. Mr. Worsham Is correct in stetlng tliat the controversy is trivial. The cham ber of commerce did not start It. but it’ does not feel justified in letting go by unanswered statements hbsolutely incor rect and which had not the least foun dation of fact. As to whether the Atlanta conference was of value and Interest the' follow ing voluntary letter from Dr. W. E. Hinds, of Alabama, who addressed tr.e conference. Is to the point: MR. HIND S LETTER.

K PORTGUESE SUBJECTS RAISE DOUBTFUL POINT HANFORD, Cal.. Nov. 30.—The appli cation of two Portuguese for citizenship papers in the superior court h.-re yester day has raised a fine point in interna tional politics, which Judge Covert has requested the state department at Wash ington to solve, meanwhile deferring the cafle. The law provides that petitioners shall first renounce allegiance to their sover eign and then proclaim allegiance to the United States, and the question arose as to whether the citizens-to-be should renounce fealty to the king of Portugal or to the Portuguese*republic, which ha» not yet been recognized by this country.
