THE MORNING STAR, wiLMINGTON, N. C, SATURbAY, AUGUST 28, 1915. THREP Americans New Policy, Control of the Caribbean Sea? 'TnePaXented r rrevents Slipping man I-' - " 7 L wrrc y o -K , : ' slams Secretary of State Lansing; Secretary of State Robert Lansing1 has ji't announced a new and great American policy, nothing less than the control of the Caribbean Sea, which is necessary to the" protection and control of the Panama -Canal. Such is the interpretation put on the treaty he has just offered the new Haytian government providing for : a protectorate of ten years. Of course, Map of the Caribbean Sea the policy is not stated in the broad terms, that .the purpose of it is to dominate the Caribbean; but far see ing Washington observers, who have believed ever sinoe the American gov ernment decided to build the Panama Canal, that absolutely necessary to its protection, think the time has at last come when this new American policy has taken shape. Control of the Caribbean requires a port like Port au Prince at the east end. The Panama strip itself serves as a naval base on the west end of the sea, while New Orleans naturally becomes the large naval base neces sary for the success of the policy The., treaty the secretary of state has offered to Hayti must, of course, be confirmed by the United States Senate, arid many members of that body may disagree with the new policy. But Admiral William B. Caperton there is little doubt in shington that, the administration has committed itself. Admiral William B. Caperton is now in control of Haytl. Although a new president has been, elected the Ameri can is almost dictator. He or some other representative of the navy de partment will likely remain there until the treaty for an American pro- tectorate has been acted on. STATE FEDERATION OF 1 WOMEN 1 FORMED State Department of Agricul ture Will Co-Operate Organization In Outgrowth of Conven tiou of Farmers' Wires and . . Daughters Hog: and. .Cattle Census Soon Complete ' (Special Star Correspondence) " Raleigh, N. C, Aug. 27. Major W. A Graham, Commissioner of Agricul ture, said today that the various di : visions of the State Department hav- ins: to do with the rural home life will co-operate in 'the closest possible 'way with the organisation of the wives' and daughters of farmers into 'which their convention in connection with the State Farmers' convention has resoly ed itself and that in some respects its ,'work will be directly opposed to that ,of the Federation of Women's -Clubs ,hich has as one object' 'the getting Of poultry, eggs, butter and other farm home products at the lowest; possible prices. The new federation of fa cm women will strive for maintaining prices. However, he believes there Is a big field for co-operation in the matter of catting out the middle men who under present conditions really get the big share of the profits. v It is asserted that the new federa tion, The North Carolina - Federation of Rural Women, will work along the moFt conservative lines. This is the insistance of its new officers, Mrs. J. J. Boylin, Wadesboro, president; Mrs. J. Z. Greene, Marshville, and Mrs. C. L- Jenkins, Raleigh, vice presidents, and Miss Margaret Scott, Raleigh, sec tary and Miss L,cy Webb, treasurer. Much attention is , being given by those interested in the movement to the drafting of the constitution and jr laws which are to be the exponent what the club stands for. For the committee to draft this Mrs. W. N. Hutt closely connected with the Department Agriculture, is chairman and the others are Mrs. G. H. .Croom, Wilming n: irre. j. z. Green, Marshville; Mrs. oyt Redfern, Anson; and Mrs. Fowle, Caldwell.

He says he is very of the 1916 campaign for the Demo cratic nomination for governor. It is known that his refusal to seek the nom ination up to this time has been on ac count of Mrs. Carr's illness and it de velopes that since her death friends in every section of th State have re newed insistance that he enter the lists in spite of the impression until now that' T. W. Bickett and E. L. Daught ridge would have the contest between them. Also, it, is political .gossip, hav ing strong semblance of authority that R. H. Hayes, of Chatham, will be Lji new candidate for the Attorney;- Gen eralship. He has been grooming for Congress from the Fourth district un til now. Fanners Convention Adjourns I '.
