BERLIN, June 1.-The German gov
ernments policy at Genoa. particularly
the: treaty with Russia, has met with
almost unanimous approval on the part
Of all political parties. including even
the radicals and reactionaries. This
appears froIa tie comments on the
chancellor's speech in the reichstag.
When tho nnal vote is taken In the
parliament in the next few days only
ties will cast ballot against the
Wirth cabinet.
On the whole this development was
quite unforeseen as the newspapers in
the last few days have been fore
nationalists having announced that the
peoples party. which represents the
heavy industrialist class, would join
them in demanding vote Of no con-
f1dence in the Wirth government on ac-
count of it's Genoa record.
Politicians and newspapers empha-
size the Wirth statement that Ger
many's success at Genoa was quite
modest" outside Of the Russian pact.
The chancellor attributed this to the
absence Of the United States from the
conference and the refusal of France
to discuss the reparations question.
The critics say that Wirth and For
eign Minister Rathenau were too
weak in carrying out their plans or
they would have been able to. COM
pei France to discuss the reparations
issue. as Britain would have backed
them to a certain extent, being in
terested in seeing the matter settled.
Interest In the reichstag discussion
of the conference results is waning
rapidly, more Importance being at
tached to the negotiations With the
reparations commission and with ].
p. Morgan for an international loan.
Finance Minister Hermes will report
on this to the reichstag within the
next few days.

ACCORDING TO STATEMENT MADE

:s84.ooo,ooO FOR LIVE STOCK
Values For Last Year in South Caro-.

Of Fleecy Staple.
COlrli,lbi:,

The live stock industry in South Car
olina during the last year exceeded
in total value that Of the states cot
ton crop. This interesting and some
what startling statement was made
by Or. w. X. Lewis. state veterinarian
and insusctOr in charge Of live stock
and sanitary control work. Figures
for live stock, which includes cattle.
hogs. sheep, horses and mules. total
$84,000,00O. while the cotton crop, talk
ing the state department of agricul.
ture's estimate OF 776.000 bales and al
lowing the high average price Of 20
cents per pound, values $77,6O0,0OO.
The above statement will come as an
eyc-opener to many South Carolnians
who had no idea that the live stock
industry in this state had grown to
such proportions.
Dr. Lewis, who represents both the
federal government and the state in
the control Of disease among animals,
attributes condition to three things:
Tick eradication. hog cholera work and
the advent Of the boil weevil He be-
lieyes that the solution Of the boil
weevil problem is in live stock raising
and sees for South Carolina great pos
sibilities in this industry.
Since 1914 when the legislature
made an appropriation to fight the
cattle tick, thus elicting federal sup
port to the extent Of giving South Car
olina separate district. great work
has been done in eliminating the prin-
cipal drawback, the tick The federal
government has raised its quarantine
entirely and the state quarantine rests
only on the cOstal plane. Hog cholera
has gradually been cut down through
the preventive treatment until to day
'.he loss through this dicsasc is csti-
mated to be only $4,000 year. DR..
Lewis has been in charge of the South
| Carolina office since it's establishment
/ and to the untiring efforts OF him and
of his force, South Carolina can at
tribute an actual and potential saying
Of about S2.000.000 a year, not tc
speak OF the increase noted in live
stock. In 1914 the farmers Of The
state took an actual and potential loss
from the cattle tick OF 81 800, 600 anG
from hog cholera of $50O,0OO. Gradual
| ]y these items have diminished.
Referring to that strip of coastal
| plain which tho state still holds in
cattle tick quarantine, Or. Lewis was
| asked what could be done TO eradicate c
| the tick there also. Observance of
| the statewide stock act will hasten
the eradication more than anything
else know" he said.
