WOULD
.STARVE BOIL WEEVL
Sees Way to Stop Trouble-Wants
State and Federal Governments to
Join in Battle on Farmerss Enemy.

Washington, Sept. s. The pre-
posal for a one-year suspension of
cotton planting lin the United
States as a means )of eliminating
the boil weevil was suggested in
the Senate today by Senator Smith
Democrat, South Carolina, VINO pre-
dicted wholesale abandonment Of
cotton farms throughout the South
unless governmental action was
taken to aid in destruction of the
parasites.
The South Carolina Senator an
nounced he had written 60 the chief
entomogolist of the Department of
Agriculture, asking that a study
be made to determine whether. a
years lay-off in cotton growing
would eradicate the weevil. He said
the entomologist had expressed in
4, telephone conversation today
the belief that such action would
result in destroying the pest.
Senator Smith announced that as
soon as he received the report Of
the entomologist he proposed to in
troduce a resolution as far as consti-
tutionally possible Of the federal
government in the stopping of plant
ing for one year $50 that there may
be a tomorrow for the cotton in
dustry.
"Unless this heroic remedy Is ap-
plied,7 continued the speaker, "it
will be only a question Of a few
years before the supply of cotton
will be inadequate to meet the do
mestic needs, much less the world
demand"
The present loss to the country
from the ravages Of the boil weevil
amounts to a billion dollars a year,
Senator Smith said. He suggested
that the federal and State govern
ments should join in paying the
deficit occasioned by the growers
in the one years lay off, declaring
that it would be cheaper for the
country in the end even if it had to
appropriate that amount to defray
the expenses caused by the suspen
sion of cotton growing for one year.
Senator Smith suggested that
once the weevil was eliminated the
federal government could and
should resort to coming the Rio
Grande border for a distance of
one hundred miles in which no cot
ton could be planted expressing be-
lief that this action would effec-
tually stop the insects migration.
Pointing out that production last
this years crop would not exceed
year was only a little more than
hall of normal and estimating that
nine million paleb, Senator Smith
asked how long the nation could xe-
pect to maintain the balance of
trade in it's favor if it's export Of
cotton fell away. The export de-
manded 100000 bales with the do
mestic demand exceeding that
slightly. On the basis of this years
crop he added, the country would
be 100000 short of the export re-
quirements.

JUSTICE CLARK
WILL QUIT BENCH
Leaves Vacancy in United States
Supreme Court. Former Senator
From Utah Is Being Considered
BY the President.

Washington, Sept. 4.-Resigna-
ton of Associate Justice John H.
Clarke from the United States Su
preme Court and the intention to
appoint former Senator George H.
Sutherland, of Utah to succeed him
was annouced today by President
Harding. Justice Clarke's resigna-
ton will become effective Septem-
Der 10, when he reaches the age
of sixty-ive.
A desire to serve his neighbors
and "some cause in ways which
would not be possible while he was
holding public Office was given by
Justice Clarke in a letter ito the
President as the impelIng reason
for his leaving the bench. A re-
tirement from public life at IS, he
added, would conform to his phil
osophy of life
Senator Sutherland, who has
been selected for the vacancy is 81
years old. He was born in 1862. He
served Utah in the first State Sem
ate, and was a delegate from that
State to each Republican National
Convention from 1896 to 1920.
Mr.. Sutherland was twice elected
to the United States Senate, his
service lasting from 1905 to 1917.
He was defeated for reelection in
1916 by Senator King, the present
junior member from Utah. Subse-
quently he was called upon by the
present administration in an ad-
visory capacity on several occa-
sions, notably as a member Of the
advisory committee to the United
States delegation to the arms con-
ference. He recently represented
the United States in negotiations
with Norway dealing with war
claims.
Justice Clarke was nominated to
the Supreme Court bench by Pres.
ident Wilson in 1916 and in point
of service is the Junior associate
justice. He was a lifelong Demo-
crat and was associated in politics
in Ohio with Tom Johnson and
Newton D. Baker, Secretary of
War under President Wilson. In
1908 he was defeated for the SEN
ate by Marcus A Hanna. In the
Campaign for the Democratic nom-
ination for the same position in
1914 he declared he had Favored
progressive measures when it was
far from popular to do SO, and was
almost mobbed for doing So
Among his colleagues upon the
bench, and by the bar Of the court
in general, Mr.. Clarke Is held in
high esteem. He is regarded by
his associates as a specialist in
corporation law in It's various
phases.

Anti-Bonus League
Opposes Blanket Law
Committee Resolution Urges
New Congress Not to Pro.
vide Gratuities

The executive committee of the ex-
Service Mems Anti-Bonus League
adopted resolution yesterday at the
Hotel Astor, urging the new Congress
to refrain from blanket bonus legisla-
tion. The resolution in part follows:
Whereas, We believe the members
Of Congress to have been influenced by
an erroneous assumption that large
majority of the ex-service men and
women were in favor of demanding
beneficial legislation;
"Whereas. We believe that any
gratuities, bonuses, adjusted compen-
sation, or service pensions given to the
able-bodied will substantially reduce
the amount of attention ard material
assistance given to the disabled.
Resolved, That the ex-Service Mems
Anti-Bonus League, having member
ship which consists almost wholly of
veterans who served as enlisted men
and pledging itself neither to exert
political pressure nor to attempt re-
prisals against individual legislators,
hereby, merely as an expression of the
sentiments of body Of citizens, urges
each and all Of the newly elected mem
bers of Congress strenuously to op-
pose any legislation which may at any
time be proposed for the purpose Of
providing gratuities, bonuses, adjusted
compensation, or service pensions to
able-bodied veterans Of the World
War" M

PARIS, Nov. II (By The Associated
Press). Turkey for the Turks" is the
slogan which the Turks gave as their
watchword to Mark o. Prentiss, special
representative of the American Near
East Relief, who was sent by head
quarters to make q survey of the work
In the Orient and has just reached
Paris from Constantinople after going
through the Smyrna FIRE. He is re-
turning to the UnlLed States. to report
on the possibilities of future refugee
work.
Mr.. Prentiss conferred with the
American Ambassador at Rome, Rich
ard Washburn Child, and will ace Am
hassador Herrick mere and Ambassador
Harvey In London and finally will re-
port to the State Department in Wash
ington.
"The Allies" said Mr.. Prentiss,
"ought to get out OF Constantinople
immediately in order to avert disaster.
Otherwise they wiz be forced out, for
they face careful Turkish plan.'
Expects Constantinople Disaster
There was certain to be an explosion
In Constantinople shortly, which, in his
opinion, would be another Smyrna,
but several times worse" Three-quar-
ters of a million persons must be
evacuated from Constantinople pell
NELL II the Impending disaster Is not
anticipated, he said.
The Turks, Mr.. Prentiss declared,
have list of 5000 Greeks and Arme-
mans in Constantinople, wits their
photographs, and "they are haing to
get them and kill them" Noureddin
Pasha, eecond in command Of the Ma
tionalist Army, told him that Turkey
was through with all missionaries, in
cluding Americans, and 1t ws going to
be Turkey for the Turks"
If the Americans want to help Tur-
key, Noureddin advised, they can send
technical men, but no more mission
schools.
The Turks during their first retreat.
according to Mr.. Prentiss, dropped OH
secret agents, who took photographs of
Greeks, particularly officers, and inves-
tigated all outrages. They attached
memoranda to the pictures, and the
Turks when they made their recent ad-
vance gathered the compiled records of

Situation Still is Critical
The situation at Constantinople,
where the Turkish Nationalists want
the Allies to get out and the Allies are
determined to sit tight, still lis very
critical, all the morning papers agree.
The government itself Is declared in
some quarters to be largely in the
dark, owing to the difficulty of com
municating with the Near East as a re-
suit OF the cutting Of the cable line
near Chanak.
Absolutely nothing can be learned
regarding the present attitude of the
Angora government, and it is equally
unknown whether the Allied Commits
sioners have carried out their threat to
establish martial law in Constantinopls.
The British government knows that
the Near Eastern position to-day ia as
perilous as war;" "The London Tines
declares. Even in the terms of the

conflict between the Entente and Tur-
