Taking for granted the adoption ol
such legislation, the permanent organ
ization was formed with R. O. Everett,
Durham, N. C., as chairman, and
Thomas B. King of Memphis, as
A legislative program for the cotton-
producing states, which will have the
backing of the commission, and which
looks toward closer co-operation of the
states with the United States Depart
of Agrlctulture In all matters re
lating to the eradication or control ol
crop pests, quarantine laws and ah
making the recommendations ot
the department and of the cotton
mission effective In the various states
was dratted and approved.
It was the understanding of the del*
gates, officera said, that each
would seek to hare adopted that part
of this legislative program which
needed to supplant or strengthen
istlng laws, or which might be made
necessary by developments In the fi>
ture.
The commission went
strongly endorsing any legislation that
would provide for more research work,
both by the Department of Agriculture
and the states, which would aid the
cotton grower in Increasing or improv
ing his yield, or In the control of In
sect pests. The pressing need of addl-
ditlonal experimental stations for the
study of cotton enemies and diseases
was stressed.
At the closing session. Secretary of
Agriculture Wallace pledged the sup
port of his department to the proposed
plans for aiding the cotton growers.
The situation brought about by the
limited supply of calcium arsenate, the
effective poison yet found In
fighting the boll weovll, was discussed
at length. Government experts had
warned that the arsenate supply
sight would suffice to treat only
small percentage of the cotton area
the South.
Resolutions adopted provide for the
appointment of a special committee
from the cotton commission to co-op
erafe with the United State Depart
of Agriculture and the various
state officials In securing the largest
possible supply of arsenate. Where an
adequate supply of the poison Is not
available to cotton growers, the reso
lotions urge that cultural directions
found by the Department of Agrlcul-
to control to some extent the rav
ages of the weevil, be adopted by the
planters. These measures involve
early planting, the planting of the
same varieties in each community,
heavy fertilisation, and the destruction
of the cotton plants as soon as possible
after the cotton is picked.
In connection with the spread of ths
pink boll worm the resolutions recom
mend immediate and drastic.action to 1
control the movement ot the pests and
all states not having rigid quarantine
laws governing the control of Insect j
pests, are urged to adopt measures

Mr. Wallace adlmtted that tho cot

Secretary Wallace assured the dele

the department get together on the
problems involved the result of their
investigations would be submitted to

"Then,” he concluded, “we will have

ENGLISH COAL PRODUCTION
SHOWS HEAVY DECREASE
London, Nov. 15.—(By Mall)—Coal
production In England has dropped
124,000 tons, or about 40 per cent,
since 1913. The heads of the coal
miners' anions declare that the de
crease in the production Is not due to
the lack of eupply, but to the fact that
the mine owners are closing down en
tirely or pertlally as a mean* ot fore
ing the miners to make concessions In
the matter of wages and hours.
