DESCRIBES BIOLOGIC
PESTS OF TROPICS.

The insect and plant pests that
are troubling the fruit and agrioul-
ture of tropical America were de-
scribed by DR.. ]. F. Johnston, chief
of the office of plant sanitation,
Cuba. and director of research for
the United Fruit Company, at the
annual meeting of the Washington
Academy of Sciences held last night
at the Carnegie Institution.
Several types of bud rot that at
tack the coConut, and the red ring
disease of the same fruit, that was
just recently discovered, were de-
scribed. How banana wilt, a fun
gus parasite, is prevalent in Costa
Rica and Panama, was told. Little
trouble is experienced in Cuba from
the mosaic disease of sugar cane
which has done great damage in
Porto RiCa, DR.. Johnston said. Much
work has been done to determine
how to control the black fly that at
tacks citrus fruits. A plant pest,
called marabu, has invaded Cuba ami
is very hard to exterminate, he said.
The speaker also described his re-
search organization, and asked for
suggestions as to how to combat
the pests.

II is estimated that wages and re
tail prices may soon settle down TO
a level not more than so per cent
above the level Of l9lS-1slS. But
this estimate is based on the as
sumption that Congress will not at
tempt TO lift prices OF agricultural
products by special legislation rails
ing tariff duties on foodstuffs and
raw materials, or providing for more
imitation through financial opera
tiOns Of the government.
II our wage esrners are to sccept
reductions. in pay without serious
protest, on the virtual assurance
that the cost Of living is TO com"
down and stay down, they will be
very unjustly viotimized by leEisls-
tiOn designed to promote the inter
ests primarily Of the producers uf
food and raw materials. From this
viewpoint, IL may matter a good
deal how Congress handles the tariR,
question.

INFLUENCES WORK
To EVIL ENDS.

"A small group of reactionary
men, headed by a few carpet-bag-
gers who were left stranded in our
island when. self government was
granted to Porto Rico by the Jones
act, are doing their best to disCredit
Porto Rico in the hope that the ma
tional administration will place
them once again in power. 1t is
with that end in view that they have
resorted to the vicious and criminal
propaganda in which they charge
the members of the Unionist party,
which represents the majority of the
people of the island, with being dis
loyal to the nation and to the flag,
Another group of men who Have
grown impatient at the delays in the
recognition of our right to govern
ourselves have advocated indepen-
dence .unden the protectorate of the
United States as the ultimate rela-
tion between this country and Porto
Rico. But even these men do not
cherish in their hearts any hatred
or Ill will against the United States.
They, like all Porto Ricans, have a
feeling of gratitude and love for the
great people of North America. who
have done so much for us in the last
twenty years and whom we know
viii ultimatel do US fun Justice.
Il have devoted fifteen years of
my life" said the senator, TO the
work of'fostering fraternaI and ami
cable relations between the Ameri-
cans from the continent living in
Porto Rico and the natives of that
island Today the American who
tills our soil in the cane fields and
fruit farms and whose skin has been
tanned by our sun, rejoices with US
and suffers with us. and is/ consid-
cred ohe of our great family"

WAS HANDICAPPED
BY POOR LEADERS.

'orto Rico" he continued, Tiived
from 1901 to. 1908 under\a form of
government which kept the control
of the Legislative branch in the
hands of men not born in the Is
land and who in the majority of
ton of the Island on the map until
they were appointed to serve as
tutors of a country unknown to
them, and in which they had neither
interest nor affection. For in
stance, the story is told of an ap-
pointee who went to San Francisco
with the idea of sailing from there
to take his post in the Asiatic pos
session known as Porto Rico
we went through those sixteen
years Of tutelage and We submitted
to that system of governmet under
protest, but realizing at the same
time that the Intention and purpose
of the law was to teach us how
to govern yourselves, something
which we had not had an opportu-
nifty to learn during 400 years of
Spanish domination. Spain gave us
many things that we hold dear:
Language, faith and Latin blood.
She could not give us liberty and
self-goverument. because she did
have 1t for herself.
with the year 1915 a new ere
dawned for the Porto Rieans when
a new organic law placed the legis
lative branch of our government in
the hands of a senate and a house
Of representatives, the members OF
both elected by direct vote of the
people. Although the law provided
for the collective naturalization of
the Porto Ricans, it also made the
renunciation of American citizen
ship optional for those who did not
desire it. 1t is significant that out
of 1,250,O0O only 2SS elected to re-
nounce American citizenship"

RESPONDED NOBLY
TO CALL OF WAR.


Senator Travieso is anxious to
place the feelings of his people with
respect to their desire for self-gov-
ernment in a light which cannot be
misconstrued as disloyal to the gov
ernment of the United States. The
fact that Porto Rico responded
promptly to the nations call when
war was declared with the Central
Powers he deems sufficient evidence
of the unfaltering loyalty of the
islanders.
And when the Porto Ricans de
Rand the grant of statehood or a
declaration of their indepe ndence,
what they really are pleading for is
for the recognition of the right Of
the islanders to govern the land of
their birth. This feeling is not in
compatible with our duties as Amer
lean citizens. More than that, We
would not be worthy of the honor of
being citizens of this nation, if we
submitted without protest to a con-
tinuance of the policy of placing in
the highest offices of our govern
ment men unacquarnted with our
problems and without any interest in
cur future.

They're Wearing
EN- Higher Says
NelUs From Riga
BY EDWIN W. 'IrLLINGER

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Riga, Oct. i.-They are wearing
'em higher In Riga than on the
grand Boulevards OF Paris and al
most as high as on Broadway. And
they're still going higher.
While the Parisenne is busily
1engthening her fall skirt and the
American is trying to make up their
mind one way or the other, the
rosy checked bellies Of Latvia are
merely promenading with their
skirts dangling just below their
knees. or sometimes above.
The short skirt has finally ar
rived in the Baltic StateI. As in
Western Europe. the end of the
great war Immediately registered
itself In shortening of skirts in
every Allied country. so in Eastern
Europe the final advent of peace
brought the short skirts.
Peace was q couple OF years late
in reacing this part of the world and
the short skirt was corresponding
ly delayed, Today, however, cas-
ual visitor, joining the Sunday fash
ions parade might almost imagine
himself back in Paris or America.
Excepting the peasants the women
OF Rigga dress just as would the
women Of any medium sized city in
the middlewest That is, in summer.
For in winter, Riga is as cold as
deepest Russia.
To the American woman with her
handbag filled with American cur
rency, shopping in Riga would be
"cIever" An excellent readymade
dress may be bought for fifteen hun
dred rubbles-about three dollars at
present exchange--and a serge suit
for 5000. Hats run from one to two
thousand-two or four dollars.
The stores here have stocks equal
to the stocks in the average middle
western towns of this size in the
United States.

the conversation, he said. but saw
that Baker had gun. That, the
witness said, was all ne did see for

J. NJ. Jones, farmer OF Rush

stated that he was attracted by the

deceased was apparently trying to
get away, moving east on the side

declared was following the deceased
and was shooting, the last shot

Defense Starts Case.
J. d. Baker, father of the defend
ant was the first witness used by
the defense. He testified to the ply
steal condition of his son, declaring
that he had suffered a severe at
tack of typhoid faver some years
ago and that he had once been
kicked on the head by a mule.
DR.. II. A. Antle and DR.. A. B.
Leeds were the next witnesses
called DIR. Antle testified that he
had made an examination to deter
mine the physical condition Of the
defendant and that the examination
had proved that Baker has tubercu-
losis. DR.. Antle declared that the
mind of a person in the physical
condition of Baker would be more
easily affected over grief and humili-
alton than one Of sound body.
The testimony of DR.. A. B. Leeds
was essentially along the same line.
with reference as to the effects
grief and humiliation might have
on person of unsound body.

next witness on the stand. She testi-
fled that she was proprietress Of the
