(By the Associated Press.) Raleigh, N. C., April 18.—I n forma tion coming from all parts of the state ' to the State Crop Reporting Service in dicates that the prevailing conditions I were too wet and too cool during the I first part of the month to carry on the [ work of planting’and filling of the soil ' j that- is usually done at this time, accord ‘ ing to the Semi-Monthly Farm Notes, is -1 sued by Frank Parker, State Agricul |( iural Statistician. Drie to the delay caused by the wot weather recently farm ers now ore very busy and they are look ing forward for still better weather planting as their chief thought, the Note says. , j "Notwithstanding that reports from ail j over the state, especially the western por ,, tion. indicated that plowing was behind, j the southern and eastern counties have j most of their land fairly well prepared." Mr. Parker writes," while the area ex tending between Southern Piedmont and Central Coastal counties was the princi pal one reporting late farm work. Rain , has interfered considerably with work in the southern Piedmont section. The ! coastal counties reported farm work go ing forward rapidly. There has been considerable progress in the work on the farm during April. The northeustern counties indicate good progress, i "Reports from all sections indicate that either none or very little planting has been- done. Many reports-show thnr the work is from ten to twenty days late, j especially in easteru counties, j The middle Piedmont and Central I Coastal area most frequently recorded the J lateness of planting. A good beginning in planting work is reported also from many southern and eastern counties. It is still somewhat early for the planting of major crops. “The northern mountain counties re port the senson to be very late. All por tions of North Carolina mention lateness of the season all of the way from five to thirty days. The prevalent remarks along this line come from the Piedmont counties. Twenty-seven reports came from eastern counties, indicating that the season and farm work was unusually late. The only reports indicating that the conditions were normal came from four counties in the Central Coastal Plains nrva. “Farm work is reported to be very late in the northern and western coun ties. The southern counties wore fre quent in. their comments that farm work was two weeks late. Scattering reports indicate that the farm work was not far behind. ‘The most frequently recurring state ments at pessimism came from the northwestern and southeastern counties. klabor high, in the first area and to the weather being late and wet, together with boll weevil problems in the southeast. The labor factor seems to be n trying factor everywhere. “The optimistic comments came from the northeastern and southern counties. I These were due to the good fruit outlook and the favorable prospects for cotton ' and peanuts. The farmers in this area are either not worrying about the boll weevil or feel that they can get by after last year's favorable crop results.” WORLD COI’RT PLAN TO BE DISCUSSED SOON Foreign Relations Committee of Senate Will Discuss Proposal in Sub-Com mittee.

Mr. 1 Rrlffon in his article, wnich was writ ten before the results of the balloting [ were known, declared the administration . was hacking certain candidates and . these candidates, with two exceptions, ' were elected.

(By the Associated Press.) Lynchburg, Va., April 18. —Carl Weigand, Chapel Hill, N. C., attorney, wanted in Columbus, 0„ cm charge of iTMrtT frotß ciifH folly of Otto C. KnHTfk. 'Colhmbns detec tive, by Judge Frank P. Christian, in corporation court Jjere today. Judge Christian, acting on Weigand’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus, held that a conspiracy existed between Kaffits, George T. Featherstone, chief of police, of Chapel Hill, and other officials of that town to abduct Weigand and take him to Columbus. Weigand was lodged in jail here Tues day night by Kaffits after, the attorney charged in his petition, he was "spirited out” of North Carolina. Governor Mor rison issued papers for his return to Co lumbus. but later revoked them. The order of annulment was said to have reached Chapel Hill a few minutes after Weigand is alleged to have been abduct ed. Judge Christian said the original ac tion of the North Carolina executive gave Weigand permiaaon to sue out a writ of habeas corpus before being taken from that state, but that he was spirited away without being given this oppor tunity. He also declared from the bench that he took cognizance of the cause be- I cause fraud had been prepetrated in the ! manner in which the extradition was! executed. • Parents and Child Burned to Death.

The fight on Miss Critrane has de veloped along new line* in addition to the opposition for the omission of the name of Wo-drow Wilson in her 1921 j report as Historian General, this being claimed .purely political to hurt her, and the allegations of irregularity in the vot ing for her endorsement by the North Carolina Daughters as charged by some, and flatly denied by the state officials. The new angle was as to her eligibility to the office, she having once been His torian General of the national society. This matter was pitt up to the parlia mentarian of the naiicnnl society, and the rilling was that Miss Coltrane is ’ eligible, at the same, time the rilling be ing made that certain members of the North Carolina delegation whose right to vote had been challenged were eligible to vote. If is being freely said about the con gress of the Daughters that the reason i that Miss Coltrane is being fought bv the administration forces is that the of ficial party is seeking to disqualify her for the race for President-General when next election for that office comes up in 1020. It is aiupned by the advo cates of Miss Coltrane. who fond.v speak of her ns "Our Beautiful Jenn," that she will be nominated for that position at the next election and they are making the fight to put h«r across as one of the Vice-Presidents General this year in order that she may jprganize her forces for the big fight. But if she fails to Win in the election now p U , it is de clared that the fight will continue until she is elected as the head of the national organization. , Mrs. C. A.
