Of the navy personnel, Representa-
tives Rankin of Mississippi an
Lindburger of California locke
horns again over the number of en-
listed men contributed by their re
spectiye states to the World War
Mr.. Rankin; In reply to th,
gentlemen from California, | desir,
to say that when | stated that
might Offset his, $4,000 ex-seryice
men in California who, he says, are
in favor of the larger personnel for
the navy with something like 100,-
600 from Mississippi who are in ia :
vor of economy in naval and mill
tary expenditures, | did not state
all those men from Mississippi were
members of the American Legion.
An ex.seryice man has the same
right and the same voice in public
affairs whether he is member of
the American Legion or not.
iIe tells you that Mississippi
furnished about $4,000 men during
the war, and that therefore my
figures were exaggerated, but he
oyerlooks the fact that thousands
of ex-service men have moved to
Mississippi since the war closed.
We had training camps in that
great state, Camp Shelby, at Hat
tiesburg, and Payne, Field, at West
Point, and when those boys from
other sections of the country came
there and saw what wonderful
country we have aud what great
prospects there, they nocked back
to Mississippi after the war by the
thousands.
And if my distinguished friend
from California had the privilege,
the pleasure and the honor of train
ing in Mississippi for the gallant
services he rendered overseas, es
peeially if be had been a single
man, no doubt today, instead Of
wasting his time trying to convince
this House of the proposition for
which he stands, or of tantalizing
himself with the prospects of going
to the Senate, he would be down
there in Mississippi cultivating his
cotton fields or moving his alfalfa

Anti-Merger Case Compro-
missed.

The so-called anti-merger case
brought by the attorney general Of
Mississippi against the Illinois Cen
trail and Texas & Mississippi Valley
railroads has been compromised by
Attorney General Frank Robertson
in the Chancery Court at Clarks-
dale. The railroads have paid $780,
900 to cover the states expenses
and sertarn penalties based on an
alleged violation OF an ancient stat
ute, long since repealed, which pro-
hibited one corporstion from buying
stock in another, even If the two
were not competitors. The law was
changed in 1910 to apply only to
competing corporations. In all inn
portant particulars the DEGREES OF
the court sustains the claims OF the
railroads.
The ownership and control of the
Yazoo & Mississippi Valley by the
Illinois Central, having been ap-
parently authorized by the legisla-
ture, is declared to be legal in ail
respects.
1t is to be hoped that the present
settlement marks the end OF rail-
road batting in Mississippi. The
present encouragement, is no way
responsible for the institution Of
this suit. has done we'll to bring it
to conclusion. The Illinois Cen
tral, while doubtless smarting un-
der the payment Of a heavy fine for
a purely technical breach of an OBJ
solete and obscure statute, will find
more comfort in knowing that it
has ended its last dispute with the
authorities in Mississippi, and can
work out its plans under the pro-
lection OF this adjudication. This
should mark the dawn of new and
better era in Mississippi.

What is the record? The profiteel
has run amuck, uncontrolled and
unmolested and the cost of living
has constantly scared higher, ,'unre-
strained and unchecked.
And while these conditions have
been manifest, every attempt of the
kindred spirits and the powers
that be- to reduce wages or restore
the old order of things in the indus
trial life of this nation has met with
ready response and sincere Cor
operation of the present admins
tration.
Under the Wilson administra-
tion harmony between employer and
employee was the watchword, and
when friction arose every effort was
employed that an honest adjust
ment of differences might be made.

with strikes or threatened strikes in
practically every State of the Union
with no effort upon the part of this
administration to exert the power
uf its influence for adjustment.
With millions out of work and the
wages of those that work threatened
to be lowered, with no reduction of
living cost and no sympathy in the
heart or solution in the brains of
the present administration to restore
'normalcy it is natural that discon-
tent has entered millions of homes
and disgust hoyers over this broad
land.
The present Congress will live
in history as the coiner of Newber-
ryism- meaning the plunder of the
people by the purchase of power.
1t has bungled the Budget by
establishing a record for deficiency
appropriations, and in its mad rush
to the pie counter it has ravishtd d
the Civil Service and defied law.
This administration has proven
itself incompetent, impotent and
incapable to cope with the colossal
problems which confront the coun-
try and those who look for relief
mush abandon hope.

The Cotton Planter and the
Boil Weevil.

The following is part of a lett'
received last Thursday from th
Cotton Acreage Committee at Mem
'phis:
There is now no oyer-supply {
cotton. There will be no oyer-sup
ply of cotton during the statistica
year which begins August 1st, 1922
f the crop this year is held to no
more than 100000 bales. Th'
planting this year should be sucl
that under no circumstances can q
crop Of more than 100000 bales
be produced. A crop of more than
10, ,000,Q0 bales will not be pro.
duced if the South plants enough
acreage to food and feed stuffs for
its farms to be self-sustaining in
these products. We do not and
have never advocated that the
Southern farmers should undertake
tn produce food and feed stuffs for
market.
Boil Weeyils will be worse this
year, it is thought, than ever before.
The area of infestation is larger
than it has ever been since the pest
entered this country from Mexico
in 1892. The winter survival is un-
precedented. If you have not seen
the government reports on this sub
iect, we suggest that you might find
them interesting,
In our final appeal TO the public,
we are asking it to take this matter
of probable boil weevil damage into
consideration to the end that no
matter what happens, no human
being nor any live stock on the farm
will suffer this winter. The self
sustaining farm will not only be in
dependent of any disaster that may
happen to its cotton crop, but it
will also be independent in its deal
ings with the cotton market.
The Cotton Acreage Committee,
since the southwide meeting held at
Memphis early in December, has
sent out approximately one million
pieces of printed matter, and thous-
ands Of letters, besides supplying a
mat service to newspapers requiring
it. Great care has been exercised
in every verbal or writteu express
sion coming from the Committee;
its every statement of fact or figure
was intended to withstand the clo-
sest scrutiny of friend, and all at
tacks by foes.
We thank you very much for the
cooperation you have given US, and
if you can see fit to give space tC
the matter enclosed herewith, We
shall thank you the more.
Yours very truly,
Cotton Acreage Committee.

DRUMMERS VISIT WOLF
POINT COMMERCIAL CLUB

Our Commercial Club is SO fortu-
nate as to count a number of COM
mercial travellers, "drummers," as
some call them, among it's friends.
They are always welcome. Long and
keen observation of polite society
has gained for them its manner, its
acquirement-its repose and ease.
The deem of our drummers is John
S. Bruner, the "Home Products"
man. In the early days of Wolf
Point, the only males who wore white
collars were John S., J. T. Fansler
and a Scotchman named alias RAT
tlesnake Pete" In those days the
writer did not sport a white collar
and these three were looked upon as
the advance agents of culture and
the civilization of the east. If any
other drummers made Wolf Point
in those days their memory has per-
ished. 1t was a fascination to listen
to these three with their news of the
outside world and they never failed
of an audience.
Then there is Jim Fortner, of the
National Biscuit Company. Jim al
ways drops into the Club when he
comes here. Jim is an optimist and
everywhere he goes he meets the
niceset kind of people. The last
time he was here he told of having
been in Troy, a place which most of
US, ~(unless we read the Troy Echo,)
picture as a freight division on the
