THREAT
OF QUARANTINE
Eel Worm on Clover
May Halt Idaho
Shipments

University OF Idaho-Officials oi
agricultural experiment station. 'nclud-
ing Dean F. J. Iddings. director; {.
w. Hungerford. plant pathologist; and
Claude Wakeland. entomologis,. have
wired protests to the federal horticul-
iural board agains; the proposed con-
sideration OF quarantine OF Idaho pro-
ducts. This consideration on the part
of the federal board comes following
the reported existence in the state oi
the eel worm disease on clover.
In reply te kilograms sent by Con-
gresham Burton l.. French and the
University OF Idaho officials federal
authorities have given assurance that
90 days will be allowed to elapse be-
fore any definite action is taken.
Idaho experiment station experts in
entomology and plant diseases report
that any consideration OF quarantine
is unjustiied. Tests conducted by the
chronological station have indicated
no probability OF carrying the eel
worm through shipping of products.
Ii is held that the quarantine would
involve discrimination against Idaho
products, including seeds.
The experiment station officials are
conferring with the state department
OF agriculture through Commissioner
Mark Means and the assistance OF Ida
no agricultural organizations will be
solicited in presenting ldaho's case
during the next 90 days. Notice re-
garding the hearing to consider the
possibility OF a quarantine has been
widely distributed by the United
States aarimen, OF agriculture. The
hearing was held at Washington D. c.
on Oct. bat final decision was de-
ierred.

DANGER Thinks
ADDISON SMITH
Nations Greatest Menace
Comes From Within
Declares Congressman
to Kiwanis Club

America, her government and her
institutions, are not menaced by any
prospective war but they are menaced
from within. Congressman Addison 7.
Smith told the local Kiwanis club
Thursday in the course of brief ad-
dress. Foreigners, dissatisfied with
their own government flock to the
United States bent upon destruction
of the government buided here to
suit their whims, he said Seemingly
they are always supplied with plenty
OF money and the extent OF the opera
tions of such radicals is far greater
than is generally supposed, he said.
Kiwanis clubs and other kindred
organizations. by teaching loyalty and
understanding Of the American gov
ernment. can and are going more to
preserve it than any other force in
America today not excepting schools
and churches, the speaker said.
Mr.. Smith touched briefly on the
history of the west. paid pioneers a
compliment for the building work.
mentioned several local men in con-
nectou and wondered whether the
pioneers. who certainly faced more
hardships than the nation today is un-
dergoing. were ever discouraged and
dissatisfied. Pioneers, he said needed
no Kiwanis club TO build. Works on
every hand were testimony enough of
their confidence in the future of this
country.
This is the most perfect government
in the world, Mr.. Smith declared. 1t
not only permits every man a voice
in the affairs of government but II
gives him the right to use such ability
as he may posses to obtain a compe-
tence. More. this nation in the brief
course of its history. has become the
wealthiest nation in the world, A
few more centuries may make II the
most populous, he said.

Nineteen College OF Idaho Football
players boarded the early afternoon
train Thursday for Moscow where
Saturday Coach Cornells eleven faces
one OF the hardest games of the
season with the University OF Idaho.
The team will go to Spokane, re-
main there overnight and go to Mos
cow a few hours ahead of the game
Saturday afternoon.
Three hundred College OF Idaho
students were at the railroad station
to speed the team on its way in one
OF the most rousing rallies ever staged
by College of Idaho students. Hopes
for college victory are dampened by
the knowledge that the university has
one of the strongest football teams of
years but College of Idaho students
are nevertheless confident that a low
score and creditable showing will be
made by Cornell's team.
Cornell put in the entire week work
ing the rough spots off his team.
Every man left in excellent condition
except Walker who suffered slight
injury Wednesday evening in the final
scrimmage before the Idaho game.
DR. c. NJ. Haley patched his cheek
and he is expected TO perform Sat-
urday in regular fashion.
Cornell did not announce his lineup
prior to his departure but the same
team that has been working together
practically since the first night out will
undoubtedly be used

pleted with Albion for game here

in earlier days when Albion was
consistent winner over the College OF

cooperate with farmers in their fight

Mr.. Beck did not refer during his
remarks to the condition OF Canyon

To make assurance doubly sure. the
city council Monday evening again

COLLEGE READY
FOR BIC ENOOW|-
MENT DRIVE
Campaign for $4,000 to
be Launched October
Twenty First; Funds
Sorely Needed
(Written ior The Tribunel

The College of Idaho has pro-
duced more successful men and wom-
en- than any other small college in the
country.
If this fact appeared in all the news
papers this morning. how proud we
would all feel to be living in Cald-
well the home OF such an institution.
Many OF us would call DIR. Boone on
the telephone and congratulate him
upon the success OF the school. Many
OF us would write him a letter. and a
great number OF us would drive out
and see this wonderful institution
that has brough fame to Caldwell.
All OF us would be happy and glad 10
say we came from Caldwell where the
greatest little college in the country
was located
Now the truth OF the matter is that
the College OF Idaho is at the present
time one OF the best and leading small
colleges in the west II has and is
still producing strong. sincere and de-
voted men and women that are max
ing their mark in the world. Many
of the leading men and women OF this
section OF the country are from the
College of Idaho.
Here in Caldwell At the present time
the college is serving about l20 Cald-
well boys and girls and it has brought
into the city 2l0 boys and girls from
other cities that are now helping
Caldwell to become 4 leading city in
the southwest
So fast has the college grown that
this year classes are over crowded and
this means il we wish the College to
keep on growing we must secure a
greater Endowment Fund and secure
funds for more buildings
At the present time a victory drive
is on. The college must secure in cash
S45OOO before February |. 1924 in or
der that Sl7.5O0 may be secured
from the General Education Board
(The Rockefeller FUND.-.
If we secure this money the College
will then have an Endowment Fund
of 100000 and will then be in shape
to begin a building fund for the erec-
tion of science hall and gymnas-
ium two buildings that are badly need
ed
If this money is secured il means
one OF the greatest victories that the
College OF Idaho has ever had. 1t
means that she shall continue to grow
and to bring into the city Christian
men and women who will make our
community better and who will go
out into the world as leaders OF men.
During the past month S56300 has
been secured. The local drive will be
in Caldwell from October 2l to d.

Lowell has not announced his line
up but it will not materially differ
from the team that took the field at
Emmett last week. Lots OF subsii-

SMITH thinks
No CHANCE To
ETEXTENS|ON
Western States Will Not
Put Up United Front
Because of Pressure at
Home

Favorable enactment OF relief legiS-
lation Tor western reclamation settlers
by the coming congress will be no
easy matter. Congressman Addison T
Smith said Thursday upon his visit
in Caldwell.
1t is less the opposition from the
east than opposition from western
states which must be overcome. Con-
gresham Smith explained. And op-
position from the west means that no
united support can be given any re-
lief measure which includes postpon-
ment or redistribution OF payments.
consequently there seems little likli-
hood that such a measure can be en-
acted into law.
Opposition from the west arises
from two sources. Congressman
Smith said Idaho has had more than
her proportionate share of the invest
ments made under the reclamation
law. While this state has paid only
nine million dollars into the fund used
for reclamation purposes. three times
that amount has been expended on
projects in this state. Since practi-
cally all of this money has come from
the west, other states have been con-
iributing to the construction OF Idaho
projects.
AS a result Oregon. Utah and Cal
ifornia feel that they should have new
projects. 1t is true. Congressman
Smith said. that Idaho was unfortu-
nate to have so much construction
not because of ability in political ma
neouvering but because this state had
the water, the soil and the feasiable
projects which other states lacked.
Western congressman from other
states are urged to obtain new pro-
jects for their states. Consequently.
Congressman Smith explained. they
look with disfavor upon any program
that contemplates the depletion OF the
reclamation fund and cessetion OF
building opertions by the reclamation
department. AT every election. his IS
a western campaign war cry in other
states than Idaho. he said. and so
much pressure is exerted upon these
congressman that, for political rea-
sons If no other. they cannot support
an extension OF time for payment pro-
gram.
In addition minor opposition comes
from privately owned projects where
interest is being paid. These settlers
cannot obtain federal aid and they |
contend that because the United
States is in debt. they are paying
doble interest. to their own project
and to carry the investment on fede-
raj reclamation projects which charge
no interest.
