London, Jan. 5.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press. j. ]. Walsh, men,
Der of the Dali Eireann, is quoted
in a Central News dispatch from
Dublin today as saying in a state
ment:
Il can definitely state that, as the
position stands, the treaty will be
defeated by at least two votes"
Il take full responsibility for max
ing that statement" Walsh contin-
ued. THE decision probably will
be reached late tonight, and l feel
that it is of the greatest Importance
and of vital interest for every con-
stituency to realize the exact posi-
ton
The Central News correspondent
says other deputies who were
asked regarding Walsh's statement,
said they would not attempt to con-
tradict it, and that their manner of
saying so confirmed the serious
fears generally entertained.
Prominent opposition members
are quoted as declaring their side
was favored by the recess taken by
the Dali this morning and that the
net result had been at least one vote
more on the anti-treaty side.
Dali AdjOurns.
Dublin, Ireland, Jan. 5.-(By the
Associated PreSS.) - The Dali
Eireann met this morning and i'm
mediately adjourned until 3 o'clock
this afternoon.
The adjournment was to give the
members an opportunity of dis
cussing the situation created by the
presentation of Eamonn de Valera's
alternative proposals. 1t was re-
garded by many observers of the
proceedings as a hopeful sign that
some form of agreement might be
reached.
The astonisnment produced in the
Dali Eireann by Eamonn de Va
lera's sudden production of his al
tentative proposals to the peace
treaty, and his announced deter
mination to move them as an
amendment to the treaty at today's
session, have turned into anxiety
over the probable effect of this
move on the further proceedings in
! the Dali.
Challenge De Yalerl.
Mr.. de Valera's right to move his
| proposals as an amendment has
been challenged and it is possible
| that a critical division today may
occur on the motion to enable him
! to carry out his plan. His oppon-
ents declare he must reserve his
| alternative proposal until the Dali
has given direct vote on the
treaty.
One member of the Dali this
morning said shortly after the'ad-
journment that an effort would be
made to reach an agreement on the
plan proposed the other day by
Michael Collins-that the oppon-
ents of the treaty abstain from vot-
ing, and permit the treaty to pass,
]. ]. Walsh, who expressed him.
self as being in favor of the Anglo
Irish treaty three days after it was
signed in London, has been one OF
the Sim Fein's most militant sup
porters. He has become note
worthy for having escaped from
Mount Joy prison in 1919-- having
served nearly three years of a 10
year sentence for his activities in
connection with the eastern rebel
lion in 1916, and for having eluded
the crown forces who sought him
in various parts of Ireland:

Gently under the direction of Warden
NJ. S. Plumber. The glee club, the

"The Legion Minstrels of Smyrna,

ed those in attendance. Their numer-

Local residents who are vegetable
growers are their busiest just now.
Many of them were discouraged be-
cause the frosts nipped the early pOta-
| toes and killed the shoots off above the
ground but the rains have caused the
spuds to sprOut again quickly and
while the crop may be a little later
the yield will not be materially de-
creased by this setback. There is also
being planted a large amount of sweet
potatoes while thousands of tomato
plants were set out in this section, af-
ter the rain the latter part of the week
There will be five thousand straw
berry pickers needed in lower Della
ware by this week according to esti-
mates made and to calls sent out to
the different cities to bureaus for the
unemployed. Already many city
people out of work have fOcked down
into this section of the state and the
roads have been full of trampers who
are getting into the berry fields early
for a job. Never has Sussex county
seen such a prospect for a crop and
farmers are offering every means to
get the pickers on time.

Weather Rule Works Both Ways on Crop,
 Specialist Asserts

Auburn, July 14.-(SpeciaL)- the weather Is unfavorable for one cotton insect pest 1t appears that, on the other hand. it is favorable for another.n said pr. F. L. Thomas of the department of entomology. In commenting on the recent outbreak of red spiders on cotton in Macon and Lee counties.
 According to pr. Thomas red spi- ders have been known for many years and have done much damage to cotton at different times, their fla vored weather conditions being hot, dry weather, such as has prevailed for the past few days
 Spreads Rapidly
 Red spiders cause what is fre- quently called fred rust" of cotton, familiar to most farmers. In nine cases out of ten red spiders spread from pokeweed, violets, ironweed. garden beans, corn or Jerusalem oak. and the best control method is to watch for the beginning of red rust, which is usually found near these weeds, pull up and burn the stalks showing red rust. If this is not done the spiders will spread very rapidly by means of cultivation, people walk ing through the fields, or by other means
 It Is possible to spray for the con trol of red spiders, but it is usually impractical, and therefore it is not generally advised. Wet or cold weather automatically controls red spiders, and when fields become heavily infested the only thing that can be done is to depend on the weather to control them.

 Using a boat to navigate. the num- erous dead lakes and lagoons in the vicinity of Westville. the men found three large barrels of booze partly submerged in one of the old lakes, where it had evidently been placed to age.
