a statement to-day by Howard r. Flgg,
Assistant Attorney General, who has
been placed in charge OF the campaign.
One of the first points OF attack IN re-

an effort to eliminate the many style
changes. MEMS styles are becoming as
varied as women's styles used to be-
according to Mr.. Fisg
There now are too many intermediate
transactions between legitimate dealers
in the clothing trade. Mr.. Figg declared.
and an effort is to be made to eliminate
as many as possible. The practice of
manufacturers to sell to cutters up and
to tobbers and wholesalers, who in turn
sell to brokers, Is considered as among
those which should be stopped.

department. 1t was stated. upon which

Weevil May Wipe Out
Sea Island Cotton

THAT Sea Island cotton, used
extensively in the making of
- fine cotton goods, may be
doomed by the attacks of the boil
weevii, is indicated by statement
issued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, in which it is
pointed out that while for the ten
years ended with 1916 the average
annual production was 10000 bales.
the production in 1918 was only
about 10000 bales, and the estimates
for 1919 are as low as 10000 bales.
The Bureau OF Plant Industry has
originated another variety of cotton
known as Meade cotton. which is said
to be an excellent substitute for the
genuine Sea Island cotton and which
makes profitable yields under boil
weevil conditions and which can be
handled on the regular Sea Island
gins, but. there is a question as to
whether the regular planters and
ginners will take sufficient interest
and cooperate closely enough to in
sure the continued production of an
ample supply of pure Meade seed
