POLITICS DRAWS j HEARST'S LETTER
"BllinSseate," "Bunk," and
 "Bul" Used in Campaign

New York. Sept. Rl-Clashes between Governor Smith and W. R. Hearst in the municipal primary campaign continue with reference to "Billingsgate". "bunk", bull" and various other haracterizations.
 In letter from Los Angeles pub lshed today Mir. Hearst described an attack by the governor as a "vul- gar tirade that any resident of Billingsgate or occupant of the alco- holc ward of Bellevue could have written"
 As to the last democratic national convention, an issue which arose when the governor accused Mayor Vivian of conferrlng with the repre- sentative of the klan," MT. Hearst asks:
 "Why did Governor Smith deliver his followers to Davis, who was not a very good and popular democrat and who could not possibly be elect ed, instead of to wonderful man like Senator Walsh?
 'rs it possible that Governor Smith Is only an ardent democrat and only a devoted reIgionst when he can profit by so being?
 Did the fact that Mr. Davis was the attorney for the Morgan inter ests and of great public service in- terests which are so benevolent to- ward Governor Smith have anything to do with the governors astonish- ing support of Mir. Davis in the clos ing hours of the lamented conven- ton?
 Insists Smith Met McAdoo
 Mir, Hearst insisted that the gov ernor met W. c, McAdoo at the Ritz and agreed on Davis
 He called the governor "Alibi AL"
 MT, Hearst said he was an inde- pendent in politics and Governor Smith inadvertently told the truth in declaring the publisher was not a democrat,
 T cannot be democrat" MT. Hearst wrote, "while squalid, ve- nal, trafficking Tammany boss poses impudently as the democratic leader of New York city"
 As to references by the governor 10 the publishers estate in California Mir Hearst writes; My house was paid for out of my own funds and not out of subsidies hlackmailed from corrupt traction corporations willing to pay high for the privilege of plundering the public" The governor, after describing the publishers letter as bunk" referred at 9 rally to Shipments of bull" to New York and proceeded' What man can talk to him (Hearst i'll any kind of language except Bill ingsgate; what man can talk to him in any other language except the kind that you would expect to find in the alcoholic ward. because that is his surroundings at all times ..

MAY GROW
IN UNITED STATES

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29.-Bam-
boo, as a source of profit for the
farmer and as a means of providing
many conveniences, such as light
fences, trellises, bean poles, hay-cur-
ing racks and water-carrying pipes,
are receiving the attention of the
Department of Agriculture says the
Oakland (Cal) Tribune. As Cali
fornia is one of the few states in
which bamboo thriyes there is local
interest in the conclusions.
The large bamboo forest near Ba-
kersfield long has been a cause for
admiration and wonder. Government
experts have found method OF
propagation by means of underground
root cuttings or rhizomes, which may
be easily transported and transplant
ed. 1t is announced that several
groves are maintained by the depart
ment as nurseries where rhizomes are
being produced for distribution TO
those who desire to cooperate with
the government in establishing bam-
boo over a wider territory. The de-
partment says:
Although many millions of dollars
are spent each year for imported
bamboo for commercial purposes, this
trade cannot be expected to play any
part in the demand for homegrown
bamboo for a good many years-at
least not until enough groves have
been established to assure the COM
mercial interests of a continuous sup
ply in commercial quantity. The
beginning of the bamboo industry in
this country, then. must be based on
its uses in n small way in the garden
and around the home
Ana the places where bamboo
grows sbest are the South Atlantic
gulf coast, and the Pacific Coast
states.
