ADDITIONAL FIELDS
DISCOVERED INFESTED
WITH CKINCK BUGS

Other cases OF infestation from
chinch bugs were discovered Thurs
day as a result of investigation
prompted by accounts in Wednesdays
papers of thes first field to suffer.
The worst case found Thursday was
that on the farm of Roy Roberts, on
the Middleboro pike northeast of Rich
mond Mr.. Roberts has a rye field
from which chinch bugs are just be-
ginning to migrate to a corn field near
by He first noticed the bugs Thurs
day after reading the accounts in the
paper, and Immediately stopped field
work and telephoned J. L. Dolan,
county agent. Mr.. Dolan visited the
farm in the afternoon. identified the
pest and prescribed the remedy, which
Mr.. Roberts at once put into opera
ton.
Archibald Brooks, of Green town
ship, also reports the presence of the
bug on his farm, but in an isolated po-
sition where it can do little damage.
They are also very few in number, IS
the severe storm on Sunday. June 10,
killed many.
Centered in Perry
rnrestation in Wayne county two
years ago centered in Perry township
and instances of infestation have
since been reported from nearby terri
tory. AS a consequence, farmers in
that neighborhood are watching close
ly for the bugs this year.
Surrounding counties, so far as can
be discovered, have no unusual dam
age from the chinch bug, and so far
il has been found in threatening num-
bers in only two places in Wayne.
Other counties of Indiana, however,
report serious damage from the pest,
as the open winter, and the succeed
ing dry weather have been unusually
favorable to the insects. Fayette
county, however, is said TO have been
free at all times, nor have the counties
of Randolph, Henry, Union and of
Preble and Darke in Ohio, reported
serious chinch bug damage.
The chinch bug is very small, less
than an eighth Of an inch in length
and black, with a white bar across the
back, The young are red or pink.

 MEMBERS OR MORE

Beginning next Monday, the Birming- ham lodge of Elks, No. 79 will start a campaign to increase the membership of the lodge to 1000 or more Abe Gordon, Jeff Levy and Edward McElheney have been appointed a committee to take charge of the campaign.

cialistic and bolshevistic fallacies by MT. Atwood.
 Bolshevism and democracy mean the same thing, he said. Both are some- thing to be avoided This gave rise to the word democracy" in older days just as we name "bolshevism" now
 'sGet better acquainted with the con- stitution," said Mr. Atwood. "Ignor- ance of that immortal document is our big trouble and fault"
 DANGEROUS DEMAGOGY
 "The people of this generation are the most criminal in government that the world has ever known. We have jumped to the conclusion that the more popular the better the government. This is dangerous demagogy.
 "To knock down this argument. one may illustrate the three degrees of eat ing. If one eats too little, he is under nourished and will eventually starve; if he eats moderately, he will properly nourish his body, but if he eats too much, his body ceases to function and he becomes a glutton.
 50 it is in government. An autocra- cy starves, the republic enables a na- ton to flourish and democracy, or di- rect government ends always in turb- ulcHCe anu CnaOS, the sweeping dWdy of property rights and the submerg- ence of individuality.
 The constitution of the United States represents the fundamentals of good government. If we go to either extreme warned against by its precept, we evolve on the one hand autocracy, which is tyranny, and on the other dem ocracy. which means chaos"
 WELL RECEIVED MT. Atwood was well received by his audience, who were much interested in his statements. He was introduced by Dan B. Dimick, president of the South- ern club.
 Mrs w. S. Shackelford entertained with several delightful solos; Vie gand's orchestra played, and the South ern Baptist quartet was appreciated.
 light luncheon was served after MT Atwood had made his address.
 MT. Atwood goes to Tuscaloosa to- day where he will address the student body of the university. A delegation of members of the Alabama Manufac- turers' association will make the trip with him and hear his address on "The Constitution" which will be along the lines of Back to the Republic"

I. Grubb be compelled to insert in the bill of exceptions. which he signed, certain matters that Mr. Riddle alleges were asked in the former writ of mandamus proceedings.
 Mir. Riddle alleges that there are cer- tain matters that should have ap- peared in the records of the trial and he asked in his former writ that these be inserted. This was denied by the courts and he is again asking that they be inserted. Word of the filing of the writ was received from the attorney general in Washing ton by Ralph Quinn assistant United States district attor- ney, yesterday afternoon.

ATWOOD VOICES HIS WARNING AGAINST DIRECT GOVERNMENT
Initiative and Referendum as tuition as Is Tyranny of ton as Is Tyranny of
 Bureaucracy

Sounding a stringent warning note against the use of the initiative, the referendum and the recall, Harry F. Atwood, Chicago author and lecturer, told several hundred members of the Southern club and their guests that unless the people of the United States get back to the republican form of government outlined in the constitu- tion, our condition soon will be simi- lar to that of Russia with it's bol- shevists. He lectured on Back to the Republic"
 Declaring the writers of the consti- tuition to be more fearful of direct gov- ernment, or democracy, than of autoc- racy when they framed the document hailed by him as the greatest work since the creation," MT. Atwood took his stand for government based on the constitution.
 Discounting the arguments of dema- gogues for so-called democratic gov ernment, MT. Atwood declared that no place in the constitution can there be found authority for a single democrat ic usage in the functioning of govern ment
 BUREAUCRACY ATTACKED
 Systems of bureaucracy were at- tackled by MT. Atwood, who asserted these institutions promoted confusion of property rights and stifled initiative of the individual. These practices are as old as government itself, he said, and were the direct cause of the down. fall of Greece and Rome.
 Arguments for the introduction of these principles into the constitution were rejected 133 years ago by 39 of the 55 delegates of the constitutional convention, he stated.
 The initiative, the referendum and the recall were characterized as so-
