A collection of plants that devour
animals is being assembled by Depart
ment of Agriculture experts for the
national flower show of the American
Horticultural Society at the Willard
Hotel June Z and 8.
The star attraction of this collection
probably will be the voracious Venus
fly trap, according to Or. David
Lumsden of the Department Of Agri-
culture, chairman of the special ex-
hibits committee. This strange plant
animal, called by Charles Darwin the
most wonderful plant in the world" Is
strictly confined to few hundred
square miles on the North and South
Carolina coasts and seldom Is seen
outside this area. Ever since its dis
covery it has proved an enigma to
biologists and students of evolution.
The leaf is formed in two parts,
the inside of this mouth are a few
extremely sensitive bristles coated with
nectar When an insect stimulates two
of these bristles the mouth snaps shut
with lightning like rapidity. The i'm
prisoned creature Is drowned in a Sc
erection of digestive fluid exuded by the
plant and practically everything except
the outside shell is absorbed. Insects
as large as bottle-faies are caught. The
DldIlL Is FOTdClUuS CHUCis
Plant Puzzles Botanists.
Unexampled elsewhere in nature, the
mechanism of the Venus fly trap is
only vaguely understood. It apparently
parallels in the plant world highly
developed nerve reflex in animals, but
there are no nerve 1ibers to carry the
impulse, and, so far as botanists can
determine, there Is no central nervous
system or brain When q sensitive
bristle is stimulated 1t sends an impulse
of some kind, possibly electrical in
nature, through the sap of the plant
which in some way operates the mecna-
nism Of the mouth.
fore the mouth snaps shut. This saves
the plant from wasting its energy over
inanimate objects blown into the
mouth by the wind. The evolutionary
origin of this plant-animal never has
been satisfactorily explained. 1t ap-
parently cannot be traced to the orig
inal division between the plant and
animal kingdoms, but developed from
some ordinary plant because OF spc-
cial conditions in its restricted envi-
ronment.
The plant depends almost entirely
on animal food. It's roots serve only
as anchors and not as organs for ABB
sorbing fods from the soil. as in the
case with ordinary plants. 1t Is the
nearest approach, DR.. LumSden says,
to the plant-animal monsters OF fiction
which are described as devourtng hu-
man beings.

low leaves in which rain water col

downward-pointing bristles, coated
with nectar. Coming In the direction
of the bristles, the insect can enter
easily, but cannot escape. Eventually
it becomes exhausted, falls into the
water and browns. Then it Is digested
by fluid ,secreted from the plant.
These plants also obtain very little
nourishment from the soil. Some of
these grow as high as two feet and at
the end of a Summer will be half
filled with the shells of unlucky insects.
OF the same family are the East In

California. The latter have the nectar

Although working with the same

den points out, the sarracenias and

the Venus fly trap is aggressive. Both

:SACKETT OPPOSES
!: !: ALIENS IN CENSUS
Proposal by Kentucky Re-
a
publican Arouses Round of
Discussion in Senate.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A proposal by Senator Sackett, Re-
publican Of Kentucky, to exclude aliens
from the census enumeration upon
which representation in the House
would be computed caused round of
discussion in the Senate yesterday, but
n vote was not reached.
The Kentucky Senator's amendment
was considered the most controversial
subject relating to the census measure
and If a vote is taken Monday final
action on the bill Is expected soon
afterward.
Senator Sackett contended that it
vas un-American and not in keeping
with the ideas of the founders to con-
slider aliens In arriving at representa-
ton in branch of the Government
He declared that there were more than
5000 900 aliens concentrated mostly in
the great cities of this country. and
that this would mean about 10 Repre-
sentatives.
Sees Blow to Farm Sections.
"The rural sections which need the
help of Congress most" he declared,
would be deprived of representation
at the expense of the cities with their
alien hordes"
lac hSutuCkldl WIS dShcu US SSIl-
ator King, Democrat, of Utah whether
the founders Of the Government did not
contemplate q great influx of aliens and
had meant they should be counted.
Sackett asserted that the founders did
contemplate immigration but said laws
had been provided to make them
citizens.
Opposing the amendment, Senator
Walsh. Democrat of Montana declared
that it would be most unfortunate if
Congress should disregard a plain pro-
vision of the Constitution"
If the proposal were put forward as
an amendment to the Constitution, how
ever. he said, it would be difficult to
md arguments against it,
This position also was taken by Sena-
tor Boreh, Republican, of Idaho.
Blaise Favors Bar.
Senator Halves, Democrat, of Mis-
souri,, asserted that the present law
gives 100000 aliens an annual po-
litical prerogative."
Senator Blease, Democrat. of&South
Carolina, said he had nothing against
the alien, but am an American above
everything else"
II don't believe" he said, that these
Aliens ought to enjoy the same privi-
leges We do as soon as they get here"
Senator Bratton, Democrat, of New
Mexico, contended the Constitution had
clearly intended aliens should not be
counted. because 1t defined persons"
as meaning people either born in this
country or naturalized after they ar
rived here. Senator Walsh said he
could not subscribe to this theory, con-
tending that the Constitution merely
explained what was meant by citizen.
