Stark Scores Colony Plan.
Representative Frank Stark, of
Florida, chairman of the House Com
mittee on Public Buildings and
Grounds and one of the most influ-
entail me min Congress. is taking the
lead in a new movement against ex-
Governor Jennings and his plan to
colonize japanese in Florida.
Il am amazed at the complacency
with which some people in Florida
seem to regard the proposition to
COLOMBO a lot of Japs within that
State" he said to-day.
"As everybody knows, international
complications exist on account of the
passage of a law in the State of CAL
lfornia, prohibiting the ownership of
property by japanese and other ORR
entail peoples.
I'VE have one race question in
Florida already, which has been and
must be in the future a source Of un-
told trouble to our people, and it is
not at all desirable that our affairs
be complicated by the interjection of
another race question in our economic
affairs.
Japs Denounced as Pest.
Il intend to institute a propaganda
looking to the enactment of law by
the next Legislature Of Florida that
will forever prohibit these Japanese
or other races which can not assimi-
late with the white race from owning
lands within the boundaries of our
commonwealth"
Similar sentiments are being ex-
pressed by other public men OF
Florida. Representative at Large
Claude L'Engle, denounced the effort
of Jennings to colonize japanese In
Florida. William E. Terry, OF jack
sonville, representing the trades union
movement in Florida, arrived in
Washington to-day to see II some &C
ton can not be taken in Washington
to bar the Japs from Florida.
DR.. W. NJ. Stinson, Of Jacksonville
vice president for Florida for the
Southern Settlements and Develop
ment Organization, a society which is
seeking to bring desirable settlers to
the South, said:
I'VE have the English sparrow ana
the water hyacinth already. Why
should a third pest be added to us?'

SHIPPING TIE-UP
IS THREATENED
Conference Over New Rules for
Foreign Bills of Lading Ex-
peCted to Develop Fight,

Cotton buyers, compress owners,
bankers, railroad men, and the rep
reSentatives of the ocean steamship
lines meet in Birmingham Wednes-
Gay for a conference which will at
tempt to solve one of the most knot
ty questions which ever has arisen
regarding the movement of the cot
ton crop in the South
The steamship lines have announc-
ed that they will put into effect with
in a month strict regulations gov
erning the baling and marketing Of
cotton. They intend to make nota-
tons on the bills of lading describ-
ing the condition of the cotton
whether get or not, properly covered.
for instance. Their aim is to avoid
the heavy claims for damages which
have been made upon them in years
past by consignees on the other side
who received cotton in bad condition.
The railroads announce that if such
notes are put on bills Of lading, they
will not issue through bills from in
terror points to destinat ton in Eu-
rope, but will issue bills only to ship
side.
The banks can not possibly finance
the cotton crop unless through bills
are issued On the other hand, II
the through bills contain notice of
udUldBtt TIE btst dulliOA AAAVo as iCN
that they make the banks buying
them liable for damages as parties to
the merchandise transaction. when
their real interest is only as bankers.
A. P. Coles, who has made deep
study Of the question, sums it up by
saying:
''Why should our bank, for the
small profit there is in selling ex-
change, buy a lawsuit?"
One conference already has been
held in Atlanta on the subject, at
which the steamship interests were
not represented.
In Birmingham a desperate effort
will be made to get a compromise. It
is admitted that the cotton trade OF
the South loses millions yearly by
wasteful handling of the crop; care
less baling, secondhand bagging, and
so on.
It is pointed out though, that these
practices can not be reformed from
the tor. They must begin with the
planter. Education of the cotton
grower viii require years, and no
fiat of the steamship companies can
bring about such change in a few
weeks
