Army planes which are no longer Of

Results of the poisoning have been

tricts are ready to undertake COM

Community poisoning is much more
effectual than individual efforts be-
cause it practically eliminates the
necessity for the late summer appli-
cation due to weevil migration from
imprisoned cotton"
And in the meantime, much inter
est is shown in the coming cotton
session to be held here. Commits
sioners from cotton-growing States
will represent planters, bankers and
credit merchants of the entire South.
Adoption by the cotton States Of a
uniform system of warehousing and
marketing cotton will be one Of the
important things up before the con
ference.

TEN. The college fraternity has been
investigated over and ovor again.
Legislation pro and con has been
flashed over" ad infinitum. But like
Tennyson's river, the system. il such

In the final analysis, the origin Of
the college fraternity can be laid to
an element of human nature, namely
an innate desire for closer friendship
and comraderie than ordinary college
life provides. 1t is an intensifcation
Of mans natural gregarious spirit.
This is really the basis of all society,
so it can't be all bad AS in every
other human institution perfection is
out of the question. The fraternity
has it's faults and its virtues, but the
continued existence and the rapid ex-
pansion of the system seem to point
to the predominance of the latter.
Fraternity leaders are striving to
eliminate the weak points and the fra
ternity of today is a far different in
stitution from that of a decade ago.

the man who would like to belong,
but who doesn't. The answer TO that
is-more fraternities. Every frater-

such men and every year nationals

TARIFF COST WILL
HIT FIVE BILLION,
DEMOCRATS SAY
Opposition Declares Bill viii
Only Give Industry Two Bill
lion Worth of Protection.
By CLAYTON WHITEHALL

v
WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-The new
tariff, according to the Democrats, will
cost the American consuming public
more than $4,000, 100000 annually or
about $40 per capita, and will give
industry only about $2,712, 100000
worth of protection
This is the main point Of attack on
the Administration party in the Demo
cratic campaign textbook which has
just been made public. The textbook
studiously avoids any mention OF the
League of Nations and Of the foreign
policy Of the Republican party in the
present Administration. The Re
publicans have not completed their
senatorial campaign text book as yet.
The additional cost to the individual
consumer is based on the grand totals
on each staple commodity, ! averaged
among 110,000,000 persons--an in
dividual increase of $45 per person.
At this rate, Democrats claim, the
annual outlay of the average house
holder for sugar will increase $50;
for meats and fish, $3.50; for WOODEN
goods, So. The Democrats predict
that mems wooden suits will cost at
least from 81 to S6 each more this au,
turnn than they cost last year, and
mems wooden overcoats will cost from
| IS to SIS more; for hosiery and knit
Goods, $5.25; for corsets, 55 cents; for
cotton manufactures, $3.50; for silks,
$3.50; for glassware, 60 cents; for
aluminium pots, pans, etc, 40 cents;
for enameled ware, SIS cents; for
brick. tile, terra Gotta, etc, so cents;
for electrical supplies, S525; for win.
dow glass, 65 cents; for cutlery, so
cents; for structural iron-or interest
to the home builder-33 cents; for
sewing machines and parts, 80 cents,
and for toys, 20 cents.
While the Democrats admit that
most Of the household articles on
which the tariff is unusually high are
made in America and that the pur-
pose is merely to keep out foreign
competition, they contend that the
American manufacturer will charge
an excess profit on domestic goods
nearly equal to the tariff duty on
similar articles made abroad.

the good general crop.
From a general standpoint, a pre-
liminary survey of strike effects in
dicates that little damage has been
done to our overseas trade. During
tho period from July l to Sept. l,
1929, our exports were valued rough
~ at 1903, 100000, compared with
S6e1 900 900 In the same period last
year and s34S,OO0,0OO in July and

Carloading figures for July and
August. 1922. show that the railroads
loaded with revenue freight over $780,
900 more cars than they did in the
same period in 1921 when there were
no strikes.
1t seems safe to assume that be-
cause of the constant increase in the
number OF cars loaded during the
strike with merchandise and miscel-
laneous freight. the natural growth
OF business. both domestic and export,
was only slightly retarded.
