Colun bia, Aug. 31-Walter p.
Duncan, comptroller general, an
nounced tonight that after obtain
ing the concurrence of Governor
Harvey he had determined to ex-
tend the time for payment Of taxes
until September Is. Mr.. Duncan
stated that the reason the exten-
sion was not made until October
l is that there are many obliga-
tons Of the state to be met by
Treasurer Carter during the latter
part of September and money from
taxes will be needed then.
The Comptroller General has re-
ceived many requests during the
past few days for an extension be-
cause the farmers are now in the
midst of their harvesting and mar
keting season and have no ready
money. The law allows the Comp
troller General to extend the time
for the payment of taxes by and
with the consent Of the governor.

Comes as Surprise
The action of the federal gov
ernment came as a bombshell in
Judge Wilkerson's court AS the
attorney general entered the court
room an audible tremor of surprise
filled the marble walled hall and
the first indication Of the magni-
tude of the proceeding was given.
1t had not been known by more
than few assistants that the at
torney general was in Chicago.
District Attorney Clyne walked
directly to the bench and announce
ed almost simultaneously with the
formal convening Of court by the
clerk that he sought to bring ac-
ton "of the United States Of Amer
ica gaainst the railway employees
department of the American"
With the sentence yet unfinished
the room was alive with the activ-
ity of prodded wasps' nest. News
paper men ran empty handed for
telephones. court officials moved
frantically TO restore order and
waiting attorneys and witnesses
leaned forward in the benches they
had for hours occupied in monot-
onous Indifference, with alert inter-
est.
AS the reading Of the bill of COM
plant continued the court throngs
grew and the ager interest Of the
crowd advanced to dramatic eX-
element and expectancy, sustained
to the climax, which came in the
concluding sentence of Attorney
General Daugherty's plea.
Fifty-one typed pages making up
the petition We're read by Solicitor
Esterline, following which the at
torney general took his position
before the judge TO make his plea
for the petition.
The attorney general spoke de-
liberately, often ponderins on
words or phrases. as il seemed. in
hope that their utterances might
not be necessary-then giving in
to the urge that no other course
!, remained.
With the signing of the injunc-
ton the legal array Of the federal
government withdrew and those
who fingered saw with the calling
of the case of Black VS.. Mahoney
the calm Of normally returned to
the scenes as quickly as it had de-
parted.

Official Estimates Of

S6l0,341, 600

Washington, Sept @3-The feiiS
weevil, destroyer OF potential
wealth in cotton and bugaboo of
the cotton grower, had a record
year and did itself proud IN che
fields of the South last year BY
preventing production of 6,275.
0G0 bales Of cotton, which with the
seed that would have been ginned
was worth ss1o .s4l.0 based on
farm prices Of December 4 s.
A careful study of the damages:

all sources aggregated l09.434.e9g
bales, OF. which the boil wesyiIs
is credited with preventing proc: :1ess

The boxes heard from yesterday
added only ,372 to Mr.. Blease's
vote over the totals previously re-
ported, but gave Afr. Mcleod an
increase OF 2,243 over his total as
published yesterday and Mr. Laney
an increase OF 1927 The majority
against Blease went ND from 49,
$50, as printed yesterday, to 49,
0e2.
There has been a good deal Of
surprise that the vote was not
larger on Tuesday. the weather
having been fine. With a total ems
ra1lment of 22s.5sI It was thought
By many that the vote might go
considerably beyond LIS. 600,
which was generally fixed as a
minimum bur the political apathy
which has been general this year
seems to have prevailed to the
extent Of keeping more than S0,-
eos enrolled voters from the polls
on one account or another.
Mcleod supporters VIII work ac-
lively IN the second primary TO
bring out as fun vote as pos
sible for the runoyer on September
70. General confidence OF his sue
cess as the outstanding anti-Blease
candidate is expressed, but the
Blease forces are claiming that
their candidate VIII win, and for
Mcleod to overcome the Blease
lead and be elected, as Manning
did in 1916. it VIII be necessary to
bring out at least as large vote
as was cast in the FIRST primary.
AS many voters last Tuesday will
probably not vote on September II
a great deal now depends on get
ting to the polls on September II a
considerable number Of those who
did not cast their ballots in the
first primary.
It viii be noted that the total
vote cast in the race for lieutenant
governor is 10000 votes below the
total in the governors race. No
explanation OF this discrepancy Is
offered. It not infrequently hap
pens that discrepancy Of this
kind occurs in election returns but
in this instance the discrepancy is
rather large. Voters Of course can
scratch all the candidates in any
contest, or none, in either Of which
cases the ballot would not count as
to that contest. It is not known,
however. in what way the Light
vote IN the lieutenant governors
race, as compared with the gov
erner's race. is accounted for The
figures in this contest are also be-
low those in other state contests.
