A National Menace
nv limited Press)

Washington, Sept. 6.-The south
faces imminent and widespread disas-
ter unless steps are taken at once to
eliminate the boil weevil, which is
running the cotton crop, senator
Smith, South Carolina, told the Sen

Smith urged that cotton planting
be restricted for one year and that
the state and federal governments
cooperate TO finance planters during
this restricted period.
"The government could well appro-
pirate billion dollars to drive out
this national menace" he said.
Smith declared that the boil weevil
is destroying three out Of every four
bales of cotton produced this year.
Unless an heroic remedy is APP
piled at once" he added, ut will be
only a question Of a few years I'M
til our supply of cotton is inadequate
TO meet the demands of American
spindles, let alone the worlds cotton

FARM BuEEAu|
LITTLE TALK ABOUT
AGRICULTURAL BLOC
Senator Kenyon Says Legislators
Have Interests of Constitu-
ents at Heart.
BY SENATOR W. S. KENYON


The agrarian bloc, so-called, came
into existence in quiet and unobserv-
ing manner, and although unnamed
made considerable study of farm
ers' problems before it gained any
notoriety.
We thought that there was no par
ticular harm, we senators from the
West and from the South, in talking
over agricultural conditions. We had
nothing against any other business in
the country; we were representing ag-
riculture merely. We were not doing
anything against any other industries.
The secretary of agriculture and the
secretary of commerce talked to US
one night, and at various times we
listened to talks by economists, and
we had Mr.. Hoover come and talk to
us on world conditions.
Nobody dreamed this was such a
terrible thing to do, until somebody
in derision go up the term. "Agricul-
tural Bloc" That was term Of de-
rision, not Of friendship. They say we
are soviets-Bolshevik in these days.
1t used to be when they took anyone
to task it was pro-German. Now. when

tie it. A Bolshevik is the fellow who
don't agree with you.
II the group Of senators who are
taking the interests Of farmers to
heart are an agricultural bloc, what
about the other blocs7 If a bloc is to
be condemned simply because 1t Is q
bloc then all the other blocs are just
as bad as the agricultural group. The
social bloc has done more than any
thing else to influence legislation In
Washington.
Men have gone to Washington in
tending to do what was right and
have become so entangled in the social
bloc that they completely forgot the
folks back home. And that is just
what the members Of the agricultural
bloc are trying to avoid. They had
the interests Of their constituents at
heart If any group Of legislators ever
did.
The biggest accomplishment Of the
agrarian bloc for the benefit Of the
farmer was the amendment Of the
war finance commission act under
which already $eO,O0o0Oo had been
distributed for the benefits Of agricul'
ture, indirectly but nevertheless bene'
flcially. This distribution has been al
the rate Of $1,000, 900 a day.
Agriculture would not have had that
assistance had the block not fune
toned.
