C., as chairman, and Thomas B.

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 similar to that now in effect in Texaa In connection with this pest, estab Uahment of “non-cotton growing tones" { Is suggested wherever necessary with! arrangements for the adequate com- 1 and the statutes pensatlon of tho owners for losses sus- 1 subject are cited talned.
