Atlanta, July 20.—Since the ex
periments of the State Board of Ento
mology have proven successful, and
since its instructions this year to
cotton growers of the State have
demonstrated that cotton can be suc
cessfully grown under boll weevil con
ditions. and in abundance, a number
of the most prominent farmer-mem
bers of the General Assembly, and
with them some of the best business
men, sense a condition in the early
future which must be guarded against
by the State, else the calcium-arsen
ate which is necessary for the suc
cessful operation of cotton farms, will
be in the grip of a combine that will
place the price of it beyond the reach
of any agricultural enterprise.
This year Georgia, through its'
State contract, has ben able to ob
tain calcium arsenate at 9 cents per
pound, so long as there is any to be
obtained, while other States are pay
ing as high as 15 cents for it. That
contract holds for this cotton year
and, since there are only about half
a dozen of the manufacturing plants,
it is the consensus of opinion, based
on recent developments that, before
another year comes around those half
dozen concerns will have combined
among themselves, and the article for
sale will be at a rate ranging from
25 to probably 40 cents per pound
next year.
Destruction to Farmers.
That would spell destruction to the
Georgia cotton farmers.
Representative J. D. Well, of Put
nam, and others in the Legislaure,
have conceived the idea, and have of
fered legislation to make it' effective,
that the State of Georgia be provided
by the present Legislature with a
State-wide manufacturing plant to
supply the demand exclusively within

this State at the actual cost of man
ufacture and negessary overhead for
operating expenses.
The pending legislation proposes
that the Commissioner of Agriculture,
the Board of Entomology and other
officials' to be designated, make an
investigation immediately into the
feasibility of erectirig a factory or
factories for the production of the
calcium arsenate. It proposes further
that the Commissioner of Agriculture
be authorized to sell within the State,
first to farmers, $500,000 worth of
stock, or as much as trill be necessary
to build the factories, and put them
in operation. The State is not to be
financially bound as a guarantor on
any of the stock, but factories are to
be held tax free and to have the
moral support and fostering of the
State, so long as they operate on the
non-profit basis solely ofr the benefit
of the Georgia farmers. They* are to
be required to sell the calcium arse
nate at the actual cost of manufac
ture plus 10 per cent, which percent
age will be used to cover overhead
and operating expenses; provided that,
on the ba3ts of cents per pound
cost to manufacture the finished pro
duct, then seven-tenths of the addi
tional percentage, or what otherwise
Would be profit, shall be passed to the
stockholders annually, and three-
tenths shall be set aside as a sinking
fund, to be used for repairs, upkeep
or enlargements. ’ *
Cost of Finished Product.
The actual cost of the finished prod
uct to the farmers shall always be
contrrflled by the actual cost of man
ufacturing it.
The State, in granting the forego
ing, is to have the option, at the
end of fifteen years, or any time
thereafter, to purchase the stock from
the stockholders at par value, or to
withdraw its connection and its tax-
free privileges, and grant the right
to the factories to become chartered
concerns and continue in business as
such.
The Commisioner of Agriculture
and the head of the Entomology De
partment shall serve as directors, and
a third director shall be appointed by
the Governor, the third director only
to be paid a salary, and he shall
superintend the construction of the
factory or factories, and shalt conduct
their operations.
In connection with this proposition,
it is stated that the richest calcium
deposit in the country is available
a short distance from Macon; that
the other ingredients necessary are
available t>n the upper border of the
State and that it has even been found
in existence but is idle.

Washington, July 29.—Secretary
Hughes, in a long memorandum ad
dressed to the Senate judiciary com
mittee, again expressed disapproval
today of the bill introduced by Sen
ator Underwood, of Alabama, the
Democratic leader, for establish
ment of an all-American commission
to adjust German war claims.
Enactment of such a measure, the
Secretary said, would be “embarrass
ing" to the Administration and would
force abandonment of negotiations
now under way for the establishment
of a joint German-American commis
sion to deal with the clamis.
Blunder I,aid to Hughes.
Washington, July 29.—Charles E
Hughes, secretary of State, in de
claring that the Underwood bill cre
ating an American commission for
the settlement of American claims
against Germany, would embarrass
the Administration, blundered more
palpably than any other man who has
ever occupied his position.
Instead of Congress embarrassing
the Administration, the Administra
tion, in attempting to negotiate a new
treaty with Germany, is unwittingly
stealing a prerogative of Congress.
Existing treaties negotiated by Mr.
Hughes, expressly declare that Con
gress shall have jurisdiction in the
settlement of American claims.
Senator Underwood, in a state
ment this afternoon, made that point
clear. He attributed the blunder of
the Secretary to the fact that he is
an exceedingly busy man. “I do not
criticise the Secretary,” said the Sen
ator, “but I wager my head that he
has forgotten that his own separate
treaty declares that Congress and
not the State Department shall have
charge of adjusting American
claims.”
Quietly Awaiting Report.
Senator Underwood is quietly
awaiting the report of the committee
to which his bill has been referred. If
the committee reports the bill, he will
be governed accordingly. But should
the committee at the instance of the
Administration, kill the bill, as is
likely, he will carry the fight with
great force to the floor.
'It is not proper,” he continued, “to
suffer Germany to sit as a judge on
the Lusitania ease. The American
people won’t stand for it. And there
will be widespread disgust of -settle
ment is postponed until after the
elections under the specious plea that
a new treaty is being negotiated,
which the Senate will never ratify.”
The Congress is embarrassed for
the Democratic leader has *the Repub
lican majority in a hole. There is
no question, also, but that the Admin
istration is embarrassed. For very
rich Germans have very intelligent
lawyers at work endeavoring to re
cover their property which the Gov
ernment holds for American citizens.

it is estimated that this section of

has at least twenty more bales on
