To Be Buried AT
Antarctic Gates

LONDON, Feb. 2.-The body of Sir
Ernest Shackleton, which is now at
Montevideo, Uruguay. will be taken
back to South Georgia Island, to be
buried there, according to the Daily
Mail.

Lady Shacl1leton, in Difference to
what she believes would have been
the explorers wishes.
Shackleton left no instructions re-
spective to his burial, but relatives
and friends, the Mail says, feel that
it would accord with his desire to be
laid to rest at the gate to the Ant

SENATORS FROM
MISSOURI BEGIN
BITTER DEBATE
OVER NEWBERRY
LRepubIican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, February 2.- Is
sues involved in the Newberry case
were echoed in the senate today as
the two senators from Missouri, Mr..
Spencer, leader of the Republicans
in the fight which declared Senator
Newberry entitled to his seat, and
Mr.. Reed, who bitterly attacked the
Michigan senator several days ago,
met in debate.
Senator Spencer, speaking in reply
to his colleagues recent address, de-
clared with reference to that speech
that Qualification is not evidence and
vituperation can not be substituted
for facts in the senate" He accused
his colleague of "glaring misstate-
ment of facts whenever he left for
the moment the realm of vituperative
fancy" and in support of the vote
which he declared entitled Mr.. New
berry to his seat over the protest of
his Democratic opponent, Henry
Ford, quoted a letter written by the
late Theodore Roosevelt in October,
1918, as saying the Dertiot manufac-
turer would be signally out of place
in the senate so long as that body
is dominated by men who zealously
believed in American ideas and faith
full endeavor to serve the American
people"
Senator Reed in reply said that in
the controversy he intended to keep
close to the written confession by the
(Republican) party" in the
resolution which the senate adopted
declaring Senator Newberry entitled
to the seat but cOndemning excessive
expenditures.
) No man could vote for the resolu-
tfon and in tho sarna breath aAoIr TO
justify the beneficiary who was con
demned" by the resolution, Senator
Reed stated that unless he was "a
man Of nerve that would do credit
to first class orthodox devil"
Michigan had not ratified" or
confirmed the crime he continued,
analyZing the vote to show Senator
Newberry received q majority of
4,00U where as the other candidates
on the tickets received majorities
of 10000.
'Such an election Is not a ratifica-
tion but condemnation" he assert
ed. IF the election was considered
ratification, then the senate had
adopted a resolution which was an
act of infany, because you condemn
that which you say had been through
the fire of publication"
Senator Reed said there was only
one course open for Senator New
berry and that was to refuse to ac-
cept the result.
"A man might just as well say
that he was the receiver of stolen
goods" he continued, "but he did
not know they were stolen when he
accepted them. but that although
they were stolen he would keep

LRepublican A. P. Leased wIreI


WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Business
and financial conditions throughout
the country during January were
without striking departure from the
general situation in December, ac-
cording to the monthly review issued
tonight by the federal reserve board.
Seasonal slackening in various lines
of industries has taken place during
the month. the board declared, but
such recessions have not gone beyond
the proportions to.be expected at this
time of year. Productive activity in
a number of lines has been unusually
well sustained, it was added. Some
Improvement in the iron and steel
trade was noted by the board and in
other manufacturing lines similar
tendency but in cotton and woolen
textiles no material change was de-
clared to have taken place. Little re-
covery in the depression in silk is
yet to be seen, the board stated. Lit
tie change in crop conditions can be
expected during the winter, 1T was
asserted. but prices on staple farm
products have about held their own
with interest in the agricultural sec
tion centering on preparations for the
new season.
Wholesale trade lines have shown
great variation but in tF< retail trade
the buying in the East and North
still shows Improvement, while de-
mand in the agricultural regions OF
the West and South indicated sharp
decrease as compared with the 'corre-
spending period Of a year ago. The
general price level, the board added,
has shown but little change.
Commercial demand for credit dur
ing the month, the board reported.
has tended downward, while market
quotations for money have eased'
foreign exchange quotations tiuc-
tuated within a narrower range than
during December, while export trade
has shown a tendency toward

Colorado river commission opened
it's first meeting at the commerce
building in Washington at 10 o'clock
on Jan. 26. Secretary Hoover a
member of the commission, repre-
senting the government, was elected
chairman of the commission. The
chairman called upon the members
of the commission for an expression
or statement of the plan of proce-
dure, each member responding orally
without a suggestion of plan except
Mr.. Norveil. commissioner from Ari-
Zona, who presented q comprehensive
plan in writing of eight paragraphs
or propositions preceded by cere-
fully worded introduction and fol-
lowed by general recommen lations
The first propositi o.: hat the
common law doctrine of riparian
rights does not obtain and shall not
be recognized in the Colorado river
baSin," was at once agreed to. The
second proposition, that no ate nor
any of the citizens thereof snail CD
tain nor shall any development on
the Colorado river in any of said
states thereby create a priority of
right as to time or quantity of water
by virtue of the earlier development
and use of the waters of the Colorado
river as against any Other state or
the citizens thereof: that all priori-
ties as between said states, with re-
spect to the use Of the waters Of the
Colorado river, are hereby specifical-
" waived.
Provided, however, it is under
stood and agreed that the acreage of
lands to be cultivated and irriga cd
i a. = L.
waters of the Colorado river or It's
tributaries diverted above the Boul-
der Canyon dam site and reserV Dir
shall be limited, for the period of 21
years, TO new acreages in the several
states, in addition to acreages cul-
tivated during or prior to 1921, as
follows: Wyoming, $4,000; Colorado
777.000; Utah, $4,000; New Mexico,
365,000; Arizona, 100000; Nevada,
5000.
At the end OF the period specified a
new adjustment of the acreages may
be made if conditions justify.
This seemed the cruX of the eitua-
ton around which most OF the fol-
lowing discussion revolved.
Committees were appointed to in
vestigate and report on the legal
status OF the commission and the law
questions involved, on available wa
ter supply and on water require
ments.
The commission was addressed by
several of the senators and congress
men of the states involved and BY
others interested. The commission
went into closed session when ques-
tions deemed vital were discussed
from every viewpoint. six such dis
cussions being held without reaching
any definite agreement, 1T being
deemed necessary to secure further
information along certain lines be-
fore reaching agreement. The COM
mission adjourned to meet in the
Southwest, probably in Phoenix, in
April.

A Bug LITTLE THING.
; (By Jas. T. WILSON,

(By Jas. T. WILSON,
The little ant that molests you
daily ranks foremost among the in
furious insects Of to-day. Aside
from its invasion .of food It is a
household nuisance generally. In
nurseries and among ornamental
plants 1t raises and harbors countless
thousand scale insects and plant lice
1t visits flowers and where the nee
tar is not readily available it will
quickly cut it's way to ii. The truck
grower is injured in that this ant
destroys seed before 1t has time to
sprout. The sugar cane grower is
molested ne this ant raises and har-
bors the "mealy bug q very
injurious insect pest to the cane. L
covering and carry this insect thru
the winter as well as protect it from
it's enemies. Not content with this
it Is an agent in spreading coz
tageOus diseases.
AT one time this plague covered
only a few blocks in New Orleans,
having been brought from Brazil by
ships. It has since spread practical
ly over the Southern States They
have no. natural enemies that are
able to@cOntrol them. Water or clt-
matte conditions have practically no
effect on them, SO how many ants
will there be in Covington five years
from now!i There are lots of COM
hmercial ant paisons that will kill
that worker ant, the one that forages
for food, but you still have the
queen n the colony reproducing rs
fast as they are killed off. There is
a government formula that is mild
poison and does not kill Immediately
and has been proven success in
New Orleans and other cities in your
state. The worker ant In feeding
from this poison will convey it back
to the colony and in that way the
queen and larva get their share aud
the ant can be stamped out faster
than they can reproduce.
T. Your state department will furnish
a man frea Of charge to your city OF
any other city or town to properly
conduct d campaign against this pes
if you will pay for poison and labor
of placing cans. Other cities arc
taking advantage of this opportun1-
ty, why not Covington? How much
commercial ant poison do you buy
that affords temporary relief only?
How mucn food do you throw away
due to this pest? Can you grow
figs, fruit or truck? What is the
ant costing your city a year? Do
nate literally to the Argentine Ant
Committee and assist In putting the
ant campaign over.
New Orleans is to invest $4,000
in campaign. Would they raise
this amount for worthless ant
poison? The poison is success
and this is an opportunity offered
you by your Department OF Agricul-
tura that is worth your attention.
