GERMANS SAID TO BE WOR-
RIED ABOUT COMING CROPS

THE HAGUE, April 4.-Germans
are worrying already concerning the
coming harvest. Newspapers from
the kaiser's side of the frontier lay
much stress on the fact that relief
from present semi-famine conditions
is more important than even the
greatest military gains.
The anxious tone of this com
ment strongly suggests that the
press puts little faith in the Official
attribution of 1853 comparativel,
unsatisfactory showing to bad wea
Their.
AS a matter of fact, it is assert
ed, the area of land under cultiva
ton actually decreased and it Il
denied that in any case was cult
walton as intensive as it should
have been.
For one thing, it il said that 81
large a proportion of agricultural
/ laDOfeFS were ufdittu INV e"S ~
my that work was left to inexperi
enced hands. The government i
cautiously urged to consider tina

At a regular meetiiS "
Davis Camp. Confederate Netei ans
held in Waxahachie, on Aprii D
1916 the following resolution was
unanimously adopted by rising vote'
there being a large attendance OF .ne
members. and a number OF tne

Resolution.
"Our attention having been call
ed to remarks of Hon. j. II. DAVIS
of Texas. in the United States house
of representatives in which that
gentleman saw fit TO refer in very
uncomplimentary way to the record
of a number of leaders in our beloved
southland, and regarding the IAN
guage used by him as the idle vapor-
ings of a blatant mouthed deIha-
eogue who would secure a little
cheap notoriety by trampling Win
unholy feet upon the memory OF
those men whom we loved and de-
lighted to honor.
therefore, be it resolved by the
members of this camp, that we de-
nounce the language used by SAID
Davis as a vile SANDER against loyai
southern heroes whose every heart-
beat was in sympathy with the peo-
pie of the south, and, while as a
camp we do not indulge in politics
vet in this case we will call upon the
sens and daughters of those VINO
battled so bravely under the Stars
and Bars to join us in an effort at
the July primary to drive from place
and power this unworthy misrepre-
sentative of the Lone Star State.
'sThe above action of the Camp
was ordered published in the local
press and in the Dallas Morning
News"
