AGAINST WEEvll
South Carolina Senator Is Pressing
Campaign. Discusses HIS Plan.

SVuth ChrOlAna senator 1S PRESSING
Campaign. Discusses HIS Plan.
Washington, July 9.-Several in
formal conferences were held today by
Senator Smith Of South Carolina with
other Southern Legislators and cotton
men In regard to the South Carolina
senator's proposal for the reelection of
barrier in Alabama against the
threatened invasion of the boil weeyil
into the Saouth Atlantic cotton States.
The subject of the conference was
what steps the federal government
should be asked to take and what the
States and cotton growers themselves
might be called upon to undertake in
the fight. All the plans discussed
were aimed at an absolute abandon
ment Of the growing of cotton in a 80
mile belt across Alabama from north
to south with view of preventing the
boil weevil migrating east of this strip.
A plan was under consideration to
gain the cooperation of thread lace
and mercerized goods manufacturers
in the movement. This suggestion was
based upon the fact that these articles
are manufactured from sea island cot
ton, most of which is grown along the
coast of South Carolina, Georgia and
Florida. 1t Is said that the sea island
cotton seed comes almost exclusively
from South Carolina. Should the boil
.Weevil once get into the sea island
cotton fields, it Is said. 1t could scarce
ly be eradicated because of the semi
tropical temperature there.
Another suggestion under consid-
Grafton was to raise fund among cot
ton growers of the Southeastern States
to defray part Of the expenses Of es-
tablishing this barrier. 1t was esti
mated that growers in the Southwest
ern State expend annually as much as
SIS an acre In fighting the weevl. A
contribution of this amount from
Eastern planters for one year, 1t was
urged, would go long way toward
establishing the barrier, with State
and federal cooperation.
