IN SYMPATHY WITH MOVEMENT President Intimates He Will Mention Subject; New England May 8uffer. Washington. In response to a sug gestion by Harvie Jordan, secretary treasurer of the American Cotton as sociation, President Coolidge intimat ed that he would la his forthcoming message to congress, urge that effec tive and practicable measures be tak en to curb and ultimately destroy the boll weevil. Mr. Coolidge said he was in full sympathy with the movement to rid the country of the destructive ' pest. I Mr. Jordan pointed out that New . England would be one of the most acute sufferers from a cotton famine and he told the president that unlesa tha boll weevil is conquered the cot ton mills of Massachusetts would be compelled to close down and wide spread Buffering would result. "I want to tell you, Mr. President, that this is by no means an exclusively Southern question," said Mr. Jordan. "It is national and international In scope. The boll weevil' threatens the integrity of Northern credit just as it threatens the stability of Southern institutions. There must be a way found to meet and cope with this monstrous evil." , The president by his manner show ed that be was in perfect accord with the sentiments of his visitor. Al though no previous appointment had" been made and the president was in the midst of an extraordinarily busy : day he found time to see the visitor from Georgia and South Carolina. Jor dan told, what the American Cotton 1 association was doing to effect the i elimination of cotton's worst enemy. Mr. Coolidge seemed to be greatly lm pressed by his statements. What form of reUef Mr. Coolidge ! will recommend was not stated. But it appears at this time to be certain that some method of cooperation with the American Cotton association will be proposed. It ia thought that congress may be asked later to appro priate a substantial sum of money tor the purpose of purchasing and dis tributing calcium arsenate In suffi cient quantities to achieve some Teal results. "If we do not kill the boll weevil he is going to kill the cotton's most Important industry," Mr. Jordan said. "We have lost during the past year more than 400,000 negroes because the boll weevil had not left them suffi cient upon which to live. We can not raise cotton with white labor and if all the negroes leave us It ia obvious that the South will cease to produce the staple." Ginning Data Given By Bureau. Washlnsrton.
