Former Governor Glasscock of West Virginia advises
the South to change it's politics. not of by going
Republican, but by part of its people becoming Republican,
and by part of it's elections going Republican, part of the

Even with the Democrats normally victorious, he would
like enough opposition make the victory interesting and
enough jealous watching to keep the Democrats straight
1t is of good advice, but it will take than
argument to do it.
If part of the negroes would become Democrats it would
be easier for part of the white people to become Republicans
Also if there real rivalry between parties, and
both of them wanted negro votes, they do in Indiana
it might restore real negro suffrage to competent negroes

JAPAN TO STUDY
RICE GROWING AND
AGRICULTURE IN AMERICA

Tokyo, July 2l.-(P)--Thc depart
mcnt of agriculture is planning to
send an expert to the United States
to study and report on the agricul-
tural situation, especially with regard
to the cultivation of Japanese rice on
American farms.
The output of Japanese grain in
America is said to have been on the
increase up to 1923, when 270,OO0,000
pounds were produced. The subse-
quent decrease is ascribed to the rise
in dollar exchange against monies Of
importing countries.
In addition to studying the rice cul-
tivation situation in America, the
agricultural department investigator
will also look into the system Of sell
ing farm products and the supervision
