The United States should declare its
attitude by formally protesting
against the French policy which has
led to an invasion of the Ruhr valley,
Senator Borah Of Idaho, declared in
G. statement issued last night. He
characterized the policy of France as
ruthless militarism," and said ii was
T. violation of the terms of the ar
nistice and also of the treaty of Ner-
railles. He criticized the American
State Department for what he said
was its policy of silence and mac
tivity.
Cannot Keep silence, He Says.
""This is a situation" said Senator
Rorah, "in which the United States
cannot with honor remain silent. The
first duty of nation is to protect its
life when aSsailed and its highest
honor and glory in victory IS TO pe
lust to a fallen foe. 1t is this rule
which distinguishes the savage from
tuc civilized nation.
1T was American principles an

which the armistice was signed and it
was upon these principles that Germany
laid down her arms.
1T was our soldiers that made posi-

WANT CAPITAL Of
ENGLAND CHANGED
Labor Members of Parliament
Urge More Representative
City Be Developed

LONDON, Jan. 27-The English
Labor members Of Parliament have
another crouch. They complain
that the houses Of Parliament are
too far away from the rest Of Eng.
land, Scotland and Wales and
should be more centralized and are
telling their constituents about it
in no uncertain terms.
Mr.. Maxton, of Glasgow, makes
the most original proposition. 81
think" he told his constituents,
that the House of Parliament
should be shifted out Of London.
They should be put in the middle
of Yorkshire.
ut is a bad policy to have the
House of Commons in London,
which is not representative town.
The people round about Westmin-
ster are not representative of the
people of Great Britain. There are
more wealthy people in that dis
trfct than any other.
"They should do as they have
in the United States and other
countries and develop a new city
for u.s."

The Office personnel has spent
much time in perfecting the de-
tail work in handling cotton and
in correcting the weak points in
the system which its seasons
experience has shown how to do.
Due to this increased efficiency
the Association will be able to
get the grading advices to the
membership much more rapid
ly than last season.
One of the most encourag-
ing things that has happened for
the Cotton Association is the
confidence shown by the foreign
mills. These mills have made ar
rangements to buy large pro-
portion of their cotton direct
from the Association. They say
the cooperative association
furnishes the missing link be-
tween the grower and the mills
that has been so badly needed

Roanoke Rapids 10, Franklin 0

Roanoke Rapids 10, Franklin
Highs 0. Thus ended the football
game Friday afternoon. Two
years ago when the same teams
met twice Franklin was victor by
the scores of 39 to 0 and rs to @.
Fridays game was much diff
ferent story. The particular
showing OF the locals was in the
defensive line playing, matter
which has been specialized on ac-
count Of this weakness in pre-
vious years. The general defcn
sivc work Of the home team was
conspicuos, due to the adding of
IA tackling dummy and a charging
machine to the equipment. The
work of Fred Vaughan, Edward
Vincent, Hal Balm and Sam Dean
was especially good and the new
material showed u surprisingly
well. For Franklin the star was
their right half back. whose
playing was most commendable.
They showed good strength in
the line, which was due to the
fine work OF their three center
men.
The Roanoke Rapids eleven
started off the season in most
pleasing way. 1t is the consen-
sus of opinion among local foot
bail fans that the team is as
good now AS it was last year at
the end of the season. A sue

Plow Under Your Cotton
Stake

The reward for ripping up or
plowing under the green cotton
stalks Immediately after pick
ing cotton and before the plants
are killed by frost is an in
creased cotton crop next year,
believes w. Bruce Mabee who
does extension work in boil wee
vii control for the State College
and Department of agriculture.
Mr., Mabee has just returned to
Raleigh from his field head
quarters at Dunn, N, c., where
he worked with the planters in
that section this year. His OBJ
servations, therefore, are based
on considerable experience with
the weevils out in the fields.
There are two reasons for
plowing under the cotton
stalks" says Mr.. Mabee. "The
first of these is that the prac-
tee destroys a large number
of young and immature wee
wills to be found now in the
young Lons and squares still re-
naming on the stalks. were
these weevils permitted to ma
ture and feed they would better
withstand the winter than the
older generation.
''The second reason is that
blowing under the stalks re-
moves the weevil's food thus
making longer period from the
time of their last square meal in
the fall until their first meal
in the spring. Many of the in
sects therefore die during the
winter"
Mr.. Mabee stresses the point
that this protective measure is
only effective when the stalks
are plowed under before they die
naturally and that its effective
ne,.s is in proportion to the
length of time the stalks are
plowed under before frost. In
recent letter addressed to the
cotton growers of eastern Caro-
lima, Mr.. Mabee urges the grow
ers to pick out their cotton and
furn under the stalks.
College workers point out that
this practice also offers an op-
portunity to SOW some fall
crops for improving the soil and
for small grain.
