TO ORGANIZE THE
COTTON GROWERS

Columbia, Oct. l4-"Thc movement
to organize the cotton growers Of the
South is on in full blast" said B. f.
Mcleod, state manager of the South
Carolina Cotton Association today in
an appeal to those people in South
Carolina who have not vet joined the
association to do so. "Thc American

vention of Cruelty TO Animals in South
Carolina-Charleston and Richland
Counties-and these have done good
work. He hoped to see other branches
esta blished in other counties of South
Carolina.
Mr.. Gibbes' letter follows in part:
Laws Poorly Enforced.
81 am more and more impressed
each year with the fact that the laws
of this State relating to cruelty to
animals are enforced only to very
limited degree. In fact, it seems that
many people have a profound disre-
spect for the laws for the very sim
pie reason that there is very little or
ganized effort for law enforcement
it is the duty of every sheriff, deputy
sheriff, constable and police officer to
take the initiative and prosecute every
case Of cruelty to animals that comes
within his knowledge. See section
GIG, code, volume 1. II any sheriff or
other such officer Of this State has
ever performed his duty in this par
ticular it has certainly escaped the
attention of the public. My experience
is that no such officer ever takes
action in such cases unless some pri-
vate citizen swcars out a warrant.
The ordinary citizen is Ioath to take
the initiative. Consequently, many
cases of downright cruelty go un-
punished. In fact, offenders find that
they can violate the law with perfect
impunity.
"What we greatly need is special
officer who can visit all sections of
the State and see to it that cases of
cruelty are prosecuted. Under the
present system, or lack OF system, in
nearly all counties of the State there
is no one charged with the duty Of
everybody's business, consequently it
is nobody's business. The laws on the

KILLING OF MEADOWLARKS
TO BE PERMITTED IN S. G..

! Washington, D. c., Oct 14.-The
Secretary of Agriculture has issued
an order permitting the killing of
mcadowarks in South Carolina by
, persons owning or leasing farm land
on which sprOuting corn and oats are
being grown, and also by members of
such persons immediate family, and
by his bona fide employees. Under
the order mcadowlarks may be killed
by shooting from half an hour before
sunrise to esunset from November / =,
1919, to April 80, 1920, inclusive, in
! fields Of sprouting corn and Sprouting
oats when the birds are committing,
or about to commit, serious injury 70
/ contains a restriction prohibiting the
| killing fthe birds fro martificial or
natural blinds. Furthermore, it does
not permit any fthc birds killed to
be wontonly wasted or destroyed, sold
! or offered for sale, or shipped, trans
ported, or carried in any manner, ex-
cept that they may be carried by the
person killing them to the residence
on the lands Of the owners or lessees,
there to be used for food purposes by
the persons authorized to kill them.
Mcadowlarks killed within the period
above mentioned may be possessed
not longer than May ~, l92U.
Following many complaints of dam
age being done to sprouting corn and
oats by meadowlarks, the Bureau of
Biological Survey of the Department
of Agriculture sent an expert to South
Carolina to investigate the extent of
the damage, and as q result of his re-
port, which showed that the COM
plants received were well founded,
the Secretary of Agriculture issued
the order. McadowlarKs are protect
cd throughout the year under the Mi
gratory Bird Treaty, Act, and Reg
ulations, except that when any species
Of migratory bird becomes, under ex-
traordinary conditions, seriously in
furious to agriculture or other inter
csts, the Sccctary of Agriculture may,
after appropriate investigation, issue
an order permitting the birds to be
killed during certain periods.

SAYS ANTI-CRUELTY
Law NOT ENFORCED
Gibbs Appeals to Governor in Behalf
of Animals
WANTS SPECIAL OFFICER
Suggests Also That Game Wardens
Might Be Given Enforce
ment Job.

Columbia, Oct. 10.-Specific COM
plant against the lack of ENFORCE
ment Of the statutes prohibiting in
humane treatment of dumb animals is
made in letter to Governor Cooper
from Hunter A. Gibbes, Of Columbia,
president of the Richland County So
cicty for the Prevention Of Cruelty
to Animals.
Mr.. Gibbes asserts that peace Of
ficers are failing to enforce the law,
and he suggests the appointment of
a special officer, under the jursdic-
tion of the game department, to han
die this matter. Also he thinks that
statute should be passed empower
ing the game wardens Of the State
to prevent cruel treatment of animals
and to bring offenders into courts.
No Excuse, Says Governor
Governor Cooper in his reply stated
that there is no excuse for maltreat-
ment of animals, and that the law
should be enforced. However, the
strongest bolster to be given any law
is crystallized public opinion, he
thought. He i sof the opinion that
the game wardenS Of the State might
look after the la S against inhumane
treatment.
Mr.. Gibbs said that it has been
brought to his attention that some
work animals engaged in highway
construction are in a deplorable con-
dition, with nobody seeming to care
about the enforcement Of the law.
He stated that there are only two
branches of the Society for the Pre-

the subsequent rise in the price of
cotton of nearly three cents pound
in about that many days. Cotton
merchants from all sections of the
belt report the heaviest demand for
cotton in years for this season of the
year. Why? Because they realize
that the world faces I, unprecedented
shortage in cotton and goods and that
unless they hurry it will all be gone.
"Let me urge the farmers to COM
mand their price or refuse to sell.
The one sure way to dictate the price
for your cotton is to organize. The
South Carolina Cotton Association, di-
vision of the American Cotton Asso-
citation, offers you your opportunity"

forcement is absurd. 1t is practically
Il nullity.
81 have talked this matte rover with
one of the game wardens and an Of
ficer of the State board Of health. 1t
has occurred to me that it would be
entirely practicable to have some
special game warden, and also the
local game warden in each county, to
take charge of law enforcement as to
cruelt-- The laws could be amended
to this effect. The special officer of
the State board of health could also
act in this capacity. He should, Of

for this work. This officer visits all

EARLY LEGISLATION
ON WIRES RETURN ASKED
Members Of Congress Receive Ap-
peal From Theodore N. Vail
and q. w. Robinson.

Members of Congress received to-
day an appeal from Theodore n. Vail,
president Of the American Telephone
and Telegraph Company, and C. w.
Robinson. president of the United
Staes Independent Telephone Associa-
ton, asking for speedy legislation to
enable the return of the telephone
properties throughout the country to
their private owners. Since last No
vember Mr.. Vail has been personal
adviser" to Postmaster General Burle-
SON in the governmental control of
the wire system.
The appeal says that in view of the
announcements OF both President
Wilson and the Postmaster General
that government control would end
as soon as arrangements could be
made for advantageous operations Of
the wire systems. action by Congress
is the only remaining step necessary.
1t is further contended that unless
Congress acts promptly the deteriora-
ton of the properties, caused by the
failure to secure revenues to meet
greatly increased expenditures. threat
ems in some localities return to pub
