President Advised That He Has
Authority to Arm Vessels.

Washington, March 8. .Secre-
tary Lansing and Attorney Gen
eral Gregory has advised Presi-
dent Wilson that he has authorl-
ty to arm American merchant
ships against illegal attacts by
German submarines.
1t was these two officers, the
Governments authorities respec-
lively on international questions
and law, that the President refer
red the contention raised IN the
Senate that old statues enacted
to authorize merchantmen to re-
sist pirates raised an insuperable
bar to the step he desired to take
to meet the submarine menance.
They have reported that the stat
utes have no application to the
present situation.

President Wilson Orders Armed
Neutrality

President Wilson Orders Armed
Neutrality
Washington. March 9.-Presi.
dent Wilson from a sick bed to-
day ordered the arming of
American merchant ships
against Germany's ruthless sub.
marine warfare, and at the same
time issued a proclamation call.
ing an extra session of Congress
to meet April 16. The Presi-
dents decision came suddenly
late this afternoon. following
the action of the senate yester-
day in revising its rules to per-
NIT prompt action on important
questions and the submission of
formal opinions by Secretary
Lansing and Attorney General
Gregory that he has the power
to arm merchantmen without
action by Congress.
Details of the Governments
armed neutrality plans for de.
Tending the merchant marine
were withheld to avoid endang-
ering Americans and their ships
by permitting the information
to reach Germany. The only
statement at the White House
and the Navy Department was
that the President had deter
mined to fully protect American
rights.
The decision, coming at the
end of period of tense waiting,
was generally hailed as the nat
ural and unavoidable next step
in the policy adopted by the
President when he broke off
diplomatic relations with Ger
many and gave warning that
the United States could not tol-
crate attacks on American ships
and citizens IN violation of inter
: national law. e.
Fraugbt with the grave posi-
bility of war with Germany, the
action was taken by President
Wilson only after he was con-
vinced that Germany actually
was proceeding with her cam
paign of ruthlessness. and had
made efforts to plot with Mexi.
CO and Japan against the terrific
rial integrity of the United
States.
Long before the order was
given from the White House,
all necessary preparations for
the arming of merchantmen had
been completed at the Navy De
parment. Secretary Daniels,
however, issued an appeal to
the press of the Nation to re-
frain from discussion of these
preparations.
The Presidents action sent a
thrill through the Senate, meet
ing in special session and
through the Government De-
partments. Still hoping that
war with Germany will be
avoided, officials and Senators
declared that the issue rests en-.
tirely with Germany.

How to Double Cotton Yields

Su idAuSs SdyS SlCulSOu SOucSS
to South Carolina farmers.
AS methods for obtaining this
increased yield, the College of
fers the following suggestions,
which summerize the results of
experiments published in Bulle-
tins 145, 14S and l62 of the South
Carolina Experiment Station.
The increased Yields can be OBJ
tanned:
1. By early and deep blowing.
2. By conserving the soil
moisture, bv increasing the hu-
mus content of the soil, and by
frequent and shallow cultivation.
8. By turning under winter
cover crops, such as bur .lover,
crimson clover, vetch and rye.
which are planted in the cotton
field at the last cultivation.
4. By planting cotton only on
soils well drained and adapted
to its cultivation.
5. Bv giving plenty of dis
tance in the row and between
the rows.
6, By using the weeder fire.
quently during early growth.
7. By using large amounts of
acid phosphate before or at the
time of planting.
8. By applying stable manure
either broadcast or in the drill
before planting.
9. By using potash salts on
coarse, sandy soils.
10. By applying 1000 pounds
of ground limestone per acre
every ten years.
II. By growing summer leg
umes to store nitrogen in the
soil.
u. By using large amounts of
ammonia applied ins the form of
blood, cottonseed meal, fish
scrap, tankage, nitrate of soda
and sulphate of ammonia be-
fore or at time of planting, and
by later applications.
IS. By applying 100 pounds
nitrate of soda per acre when
first bloom appears.
ID. BY liberal use of acid phos.
phate if the cotton is making a
weedy growth and not fruiting
properly.
IS. By the liberal use of am
monia if plants are slow of
growth and yellow in color.
16. By taking care never to
plow the land when it is too
wet.
II. By breaking the crust aft
er each rain, thus saving soil
moisture and incidentally, kill
ing grass and weeds.
18. BY planting only the best
varieties of cotton, such as Col
umbia, Hartsville, Cleveland
Big Boil, Toole's Prolific, Tri
umph, Cook, Brooks Improved,
etc.
I9. By avoiding anthracnose,
or boil rot, through proper seed
selection.
20. By planting only varieties
suited to type of soil On which
they are to be grown.
d. By planting big boil, easy
picking, early maturing. wilt re.
sistant varieties.
II. BY planting early and re.
ducing promptly to a stand.
23. BY an economical system
OF crop rotation which, ,prevetts
soils from washing. increases
the fertility of the soil, puts soil
in better physical condition, bet
ter chemical condition, better
biological condition; which pre-.
vents over-production, prevents
insect depredatIons and plant di-
seases, such as cotton root rot,

The Civil Service Postmaster.

Charlotte Observer.
Some of the Democrats in
Congress have made protest to
Postmaster General BurIeson
against the proposition to bring
all first, second and third class
postoffices under Civil Service
regulations after April 1. The
protest was founded upon polit-
lcaI grounds, as a matter of
course. and the only comfort
they got from Burleson was that
the order 'was made in the in
terests of economy and eff1cien-
cy." All vacancies, whether by
death, resignation or removal
will be filled hereafter by COM
petitive examination. Leader
kitchin stood head in the list of
protestants, while the body of
the delegation which called on
the Postmaster General was
composed OF Southern Con-
gressmen, though in the list we
have. we note, no name from
North Carolina other than that
of Mr.. Kitchin. Burleson had
invhed them to call for a discus.
sion, and some went in a bad
humor, one wanting to know of
Mr.. Burleson if he had asked
them there to get their views,
"or to tell them what had been
DONE" Burleson suavely assur-
ed them that he had called the
conference to tell what is going
to happen"
Young Franklington found
himself facing an audience of
voters. He had prepared a fervid
OratlOn In support OF his fathers
candidacy, but could do nothing
but gasp. Then. in responce to an
encouraging cheer. he began to
speak. "Mr. Chairman" he stam-
mered, when l. when | left
home this evening, only two
people on this earth-my father
and my self knew what I was
going to say; but now-now-
well, now, only my father
