Governor Hardwick will hear ar
guments in the Baker brothers
clemency case at 10 o'clock on the
morning of Monday, April 8, prob
ably in the senate chamber, to ac-
commodate the crowd, which bids

declined Wednesday to receive
delegation representing the "Protes-
tant Women's Voting league" This
is the organization whose mem
bers gave a parade through At

mime adaptation Of the Ku KluX
Khan uniform.
The governor on Wednesday re-
spited the death sentences of
George and Ralph Baker until Fri
day. April 10. They were scheduled
to hang next Friday. Being about
to leave for Florida, the governor
did not have time to read the rec
ord in the case before leaving. He
therefore postponed the date of the
execution of the death sentences
which gave the brothers nearly a
months lease on life.
The prison commission on Wed
nesday recommended the eXecutio ,
Of the death sentence of George
Baker, whose age is admitted to
be 23 years, and recommended COM
mutation to life Imprisonment of
the death sentence Of Ralph Baker,
whose age is claimed by his nar.
ents to be is years, but claimed by
the solicitor general to be 10 years.

Mississippi Couple
Claims Baby, Citing
Red Mark on Nose

MEMPHIS, TENN, March IA
Upon a tiny red mark on the left side
of the infants nose, Mrs. r. G. Ora
ham, of Cybur, Miss, rests her claim
that the baby girl left in Memphis
last January is the child born to
her November|10, in a Nitchez, Miss,
hospital.
The mystery baby was left with
Mr.. and Mrs. G.. e. Burns, of this
city, seven weeks ago by a woman
who told them her name was Mrs.
Dorothy Brown. This woman, it is
now believed, was Mrs. r. NJ. Jen-
kins, of Cary, Miss. the missing wife
who has been sought by her husband
for several months.
The baby girl was reported last
week to have been found in Nicks-
burg, Miss, but both Mr.. and Mrs.
Graham, who came to Memphis to
investigate the story told by Burns
and his wife and to look at the baby
which had been left in their custody,
are confident that the infant now in
the custody of the court is the one
for which they have searched.
Mrs. Graham declared yesterday
that at birth the child had the small
red mark on its nose. Today she is
trying to communicate with the
nurse at the Natchez hospital with
the expectation that she will sub
stantiate .her claim to the child by
corroborating the evidence of the lit

Government WILL
FIGHT BOIL WEEV|L
WITH A|RPLANES
Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
40S Evans Building.
BY THEODORE TILLER

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE
war department announces that
three airplanes with pilots have
been lent by it to the department
of agriculture for use against the
boil weevil pest in Louisiana. The
war department planes will be al
lowed to remain under the jurisdic-
ton of the department of agriculture
for eight months. They will be used
in spraying cotton fields with cal
cium arsenate poison, which has al
ready become more or less effective
in destroying the boil weevil. The
loan Of the planes to Louisiana, it
is indicated. is start toward SINH
lar use of planes in Georgia, Ala
bama and other cotton-producing
states.
The department Of agriculture
some time ago requested the air
service of the army to furnish five
planes for eight months, or twelve
planes for four months, but owing
to the shortage of equipment and
personnel the department was un-
able to furnish that number.
The spraying will be done in the
early morning and late at night, it
was explained, as the spray works
best when there is dew on the vege'
tation. 1t is expeced that the planes
will be available for service soon.
The air service, it was stated, has
been doing a considerable amount
of experimental work Of this kind
Not long ago, planes were used III
combating the gypsy moth Of New
England with much success. Elk
periments also have been conducted
in attempting to trap the spohr by
which the pests are carried. This
was done with nets suspended from
the planes. In these experiments
however, the results were not sc
conclusive as in certain of the 9th
erS.

Suspension of Agent
Is Called Inexcusable

Prohibition Director Fred Dismuke,
at st. Joseph's infirmary, where he
will undergo a minor operation,
declares that he considers the
suspension of w. H. Hair, assistant
federal prohibition director, as "inex-
cusable and unjustifiable."
He said he understood a special
investigator had been ordered here
from Washington to look into the
circumstances surrounding the
charges, but stated he had not re-
Quested such an investigation.
There is a great deal back Of
these charges that cannot be spoken
of at this time" he said. Perhaps
it may be necessary to speak of them
later. Mr.. Hair is a personal friend

Mrs. FELTON, Advocates

,, Too little attention is being given

Mrs. FELTON, advocates a test of
the child on plain spelling, plain
reading and simple arithmetic" be-
fore advancing it to the higher
grades. Start the structure right
then you can build on it safely"
she declares.
Her answer to the QUESTIONABLE
follows:
Being. average and not person
ally familiar with modern school
methods, I shall only discuss what
I know about. There is too little
attention given the children who
are just beginning to get an educa-
ton. The utmost care and atten-
ton should be given at the start
ing place; then the pupil can get
along to the higher grades success
fully.
mo child should be advanced to
higher grades until it can be tested
on plain spelling, plain reading and
simple arithmetic. In my early
days, we were made to spell in
classes, no matter how old we were
or how advanced in other studies.
We had blackboard exercises in
plain writing, also simple arithmetic.

for these careful basic foundations.
They have been invaluable to me.

ECONOMISTS. AGREE

LONDON, March Is. - Europe is
net going to be able to buy the eX-
cess grain crops of the United
States this year, according to a con-
sensus of old world economists and
agricultural experts, compiled by
the United Press today.
America might as we'll prepare
to dispose of any cereal excess she
may have through the mouths of the

British broker declared, Yoicing the

check several localized famineS
which undoubtedly will lecur this

pared to purchase them. Next year
we hope to be free from dependence
upon American cereals and to do
considerable exporting of wheat
ourselves"
"The United States has most of
the worlds gold and is about to get
the remainder" r. G. Glenday,
economic expert of the, Federation
Of British industry, said. For this
reason extensive purchases of any
American commodity by England
or by Europe is decidedly not feas'

Canada for it's wheat, and Official
of the department OF agriculture
stated.
1--WE cannot say yet where Eng
land will purchase her cereal re-
puirements for 1925" he said, "as
the markets will determine that. In
view of the expected increase of 30
per cent in the Canadian wheat
crop, it is quite likely that 1928 will
witness a repetition of the three
previous years, in which Canada's
wheat export to England increased
from ten to twenty-three millio-'
