BOIL WEEVILS APPEAR
IN kERSHAW COUNTY

kershaw, May l6.-Du.ing the
winter months various predictions as
to the effect that frcczir = tempera-

were made by farmers Of This section.
Some claim. i that the v.Easu, I'd

would be completely wiped out, while
others foresaw the MULTIPLICATION of
the few of last year and the arrival of
the main army this season. The latter
theory seems to have been correct.
l.. j. Jordan, one of the largest
farmers in kershaw county, reports
that from one stalk of cotton which
has just reached the four or five leaf
stage of growth. he picked four wee

The average for the entire field is
about three or four weevils to the

SENATOR LANEY'S CANDIDACY
RECEIVED WELL in STATE:
OTHER POLITICAL GOSSIP

Last week the announcement that
Senatcr Laney would be n candida <
for governor was received too late
for more than bare mention of the
fact. Since then his candidacy has
become known throughout the State
and we quote from the Columbia
State and the Charleston News and
Courier, showing how heartily the an
nouncement was received by those
papers.
Mr.. Laney needs no introduction to
US, nor does his record require any
comment or explanation. We all know
that he has stood for the best interest
of the county as he saw it and that he
was ever Jealous in his espousal of the
poor mans cause.
He is Chesterfield County pro-
duct.
Let Chesterfield County unite be-
hind him and give him her unani-
nous vote.
From The State:
Senator George K. Laney Of Ches-
terfield definitely announced last night
that he would be in the race for the
Democratic nomination for governor
this summer. Senator Laney was here
Monday and told friends he would
make an announcement shortly and
last night he authorized the statement
that he had decided to enter the race
and would announce his platform
within a short time.
The Chesterfield senator has long
been in South Carolina politics as a
member of the general assembly. He
said he had received assurances of
support from all sections of the
state and that he had been urged
to enter the race. Senator Laney
said he had considered the matter
thoroughly and had decided that he
could not afford to disappoint his
many friends. He was indorsed by the
Chesterfield Democratic county con-
vention.
Senator Laney is well known
throughout the state. He was born
poor but has worked his way forward
and today he is one of the most in
fuential men in the state. He taught
school in his early manhood and
later began the practice of law, which
he is now engaged in.
Senator Laney was graduated from
the University of South Carolina in
the academic class Of 1894 and in the
law class of two years later. He was
a member of the lower house from
1908 to 1906 and in 1907 was elected
to the senate where he has served
continuously since. These 10 years in
the general assembly have made Mr..
Laney one of the legislative leaders.
His dramatic fights on the floor of
the senate for the poor man" and
the "little devil back in the country"
will be recalled by many. His fights
last year in support of the new reve-
nue. bills that are now law will also
be recalled, and also his speeches for
the passage of some the revenue
measures that were lost Senator
Laney has been chairman of the Judi
ciary committee of the senate for
number of terms and as the head of
this committee has passed on much
important legislation. He has also
been a member of the senate COM
mittee on banking and insurance, the
education committee, the printing
committee and the comittee on privi-
leges and elections for several years.
Another important post held by Mr..
Laney is membership on the canal
commission.

text of message to Ambassador
Child at Genoa declining the invita-

"This government" the American
communication, "is unable to, con-
eide that it can helpflly participate
in the meeting at The Hague as this
would appear to be the continuance

Genoa conference and destined to en-

THE GENOA CONFERENCE

Genoa, May 14.-The Genoa eco
nomic conference will be recon
vened on June Is at The Hague to
discuss Russian questions if the plan
agreed to this afternoon at a private
conference of the inviting Powers be
accepted by the subcommission on
Russian affairs at it's meeting tomor-
row.
This decision to postpone action
relative to Russia is prompted
largely by the desire of the Euro
pean Powers to induce the United
States to participate, and apparent
ly not merely a means of dissolving
the Genoa conference without ad-
mitting that the differences between
France and Great Britain regarding
the treatment of Russian problems
cannot be reconciled in Genoa.
Lloyd George Plan
Sir Edward Grigg announced this
afternoon that this compromise
plan suggested by Premier Lloyd
George, had been accepted by the in
viting Powers, and will be passed on
by the subcommission on Russian af-
fairs tomorrow. Only vague details
are given as to how the proposed COM
mission or commissions to discuss the
Russian question will be formed at
The Hague and the entire scheme
seems to be still nthe twilight zone,
awaiting Americas decision whether
she will help Europe straighten out
the tangle.
Sir Edward added that all the Pow
ers at the Genoa conference will
be asked to send representatives to
The Hague, where they will agree up
on members of the commission who
are to sit with the Russian representa-

 There is not much of interest in the papers today. One line in an article says All life is a hunger and how true that it. A hunger for what will satisfy but what a variety of tastes in people.

 My love is deep, calm, quiet today I am in the mood to listen to music.

HUMANIZING MOTOR

Those who have been associated

haps the most impressive and re-
st,lfful thought which he has lncul-
Gated in the minds Of the members
OF his organization relates 20 what
he calls "Humanlzing the Motor

The point he brings out Is that the
supreme achievement in motor car
building is something more than
combination of engineering genius
metaIlurgical skill. masterful design,
scrupulous choice Of materials, fine
manufacturing equipment and IN
limited financial strength.
AS Mr.. Collins himself expresses
il. The history Of the automobile

have been supplied in varying pro-
portions during the last 25 years
Yet not one nor even all OF them

between the ordinary and the excep-
