WASHING7O ON
DAYBOOK
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, Jan. s.-We have 1t on re-
liable authority that the British and French
will be extraordinarily pleased If we will
pledge ourselves to keep German raiders out
of the western Atlantic. They will be glad to
Atlantic free of them.
The same authority assures us that unless
we guarantee that we will keep the Germans
from committing war-l'ke acts in these waters,
the British will insist on the right to do 1t,
just as they always have in past wars with
That, in a nutshell, is the reply almost Ger
tain to be made by the British to any blanket
proposal of the 81 American republics that our
neutrality zone be kept free of such dramatic
sea battles as the one with the Graf Spec.
Break for the British
OF course, the British would want US to
broaden the definition of "war-like acts" to in
clude more things than actual battles. We
would be asked, for instance, to keep German
surface or undersea raiders from molesting
neutrality zone.
That would be a nice order. It would vastly
widen the area in which British merchant
ships could operate in safety before they had
to begin that ~perilous dash through the real
belligerent zones on the European side. With
that kind of guarantee, there might have been
no battle between the Graf Spec and the
British cruisers.
Likely, also, the British would expect US to
prohibit resupplying Of German ships within
the neutrality zone.
With those two things assured, the British
navy would have many fine ships free to pa.
troll the rest Of the Atlantic and the North
sea. Moreover, there are no grounds upon
which the American nations could act to pre-
vent British cruisers from refueling within
the neutrality zone. Jamaica and several other
important little spots are entitled to shelter
and refuel British ships.
Some Help to Germany
Germany, too, might reap some benefit from
the show, although in proportion far less than
the British and French. There are now SO or
more German freighters stalled in American
ports. They hardly dare move out Of the three
mile limit because Of patrolling British cruisers.
With a 300 mile zone of safe water In which
to operate. they could choose their own time
and place from which to start the frenzied
dash to home.
German ships would be particularly discom-
moded by the tentative suggestion put forward
war-like act in American waters would be de-
MED use Of American ports for any purpose
The fewer Ravens there are for German ships
in America, the better the British will like it.
They have painstakingly refused to set ex-
amples themselves which could later be used
as precedents for German demands.

REYNOLDS PLANS
IMMICRATI0NB BILL
Senator Says He Will Intro
duce Western Hemisphere
Quota Measure Today

RALEIGH, lIarch 10.-P-Sen.
ator Robert R. Reynolds said here
today he would introduce a bill to-
morrow establishing an immigra-
ton quota system for the western
hemisphere because of the present
racket which aliens are working to
get in this country"
The junior North Carolina sena.
tor charged that aliens were buying
birth certificates through Central
and South American diplomatic
sources.
"A person in a foreign country
recently went to a diplomatic agent
in Haiti" he said. He paid $4,000,
and when he came to Haiti he re-
ceived a birth certificate. Under
the law, all natural born citizens
of the western hemisphere may
enter the United States unre-
stricted."
Turning to other subjects, the
senator painted a gloomy picture
for southern farmers.
IF farmers think they have
had troubles in the past, let me tell
them that their troubles are just
beginning" he said.
"Great Britain" he added, "is
profiting from this war. She is
planning to raise all of her cotton
and tobacco in her possessions.
She wants to eliminate the pur.
chase of American cotton and to.
bacco for all time . . It means that
we must adopt a nationalistic policy
of u own. I am sorry to predict
a gloomy future, but we might
well be aware of all the facts"

PIEDM0NT'S DAIRY
INDUSTRY CLIMBS
Is Destined To Become One
Of Intensive Dairy Sec
tions In The South

RALEIGH, March 10 - Piedmont
North Carolina is destined to be.
come, within the next few years,
n of the most intensive dairy sec.
lions of the south, if not the entire
United States, says F. r. Farnham,
extension dairyman of State college.
He cited the movement Of dairy
manufacturing companies to the
south in the past 1S months.
'"The time has arrived" Farnham
declared, when Piedmont North
Carolina has a permanent market
for all of the Shade tree or barn
yard milk it can produce"
By the term shade tree milk"
Farnham meant milk produced with
out the expensive equipment neces-
sary in selling bottled milk to in.
dividual consumers, cor, in other
words, milking the cow wherever
you can catch her; under the shade
of a tree, in the pasture, or behind
the barn." he explained.
Farnlam said that when the
Carnation Milk company opened its
first milk receiving station at
S~tatesville last April, 235 farmers
began selling from 5000 to 10, 900
pounds of milk daily. There are now
748 farmers supplying this station
$4,000 pounds Of milk daily.
In addition, the Carnation COM
pany has opened a receiving station
at Albermarle and is preparing to
open a third plant at Shelby. Tie
Albermarle plant received 2,031
pounds of milk from 231 farmers the
first day; it is now averaging 1000
pounds of milk daily from 1868
farmers.
A complete condensery is being
built at Statesville by this same
company at a cost Of $780, O0. 1t
will be the largest of all the Carna-
ton plants in the entire United
States, Farnham stated.
Ice cream and other dairy manu-.
featuring plants in the state are
opening up milk routes throughout
the Piedmont section, and farmers
are grasping the opportunity to sup.
plement declining income from to-
bacco and other so.called cash
