Entomologist. Mr. Sherman is pre

fighting the pest
According to the findings of sev

the weevil has gained a pretty
thorough foothold in the frontier of
counties bordering on the Atlantic,
coming there from Georgia in col

HOOVER AGAINST

Former Food Coo broiler Say*
“Roaervattoauata” Should
Got Together.
J BalUmora, Fab. SS.—Herbert C.
Hoover, former food administrator,
declared today In an addraaa at Johns
Hopkins University bis opposition to
maxing ratification of the treaty with
Germany an issue in the Presidential
campaign. Hr Insisted the injection
of thr arguments for and against res
ervations would “obscure oar press
ing domestic Issues by conflict over
a question in which the country al
ready has mads up its mind," and
added, “it is my tmpraaaloa that
there is no party credit in this posi
tion."
Hope for immediate ratification of
the treaty rsstrd, ho added, in ths ae.
ceptanee by the “leaser reservation.
lata” of thr proposals of the mild ree
nrvattonist*.'' The two combined, he
said, could secure ratification. “It
also appears to us.' he continued,
“that even from the point of view of
the ‘leaser rowrvationlsts' they will
have secured all of tba major func
tions and values of the league. If K
be put into being and if it prove its
living valor in the world, no one can
doubt that any nocaasory changes
will be grunted to it by common con
sent as tba years go on. For my
ptn, iv uw iiw|UP cwnoi H,u’* ivi
value under the latest proposals of
the ‘mild reservation! at*' It will nt-ver
prove them under the proposals of the

The present danger Eu'opv la fac

a revolutionary eataelvsm aa the
"steady degeneration of the Man Aar d
of living and tha alow decay of the
forces of atabilltv.” Restored produc
tivity. he Insisted, ia caaentia! if the
Allies are to receive the maximum
reparation. "Until then we shall not
have real pear*," be said. “It will
be delaynd as Ions aa we hang the
treaty in the air, for wa are a part
of it."
World la Soap so so.
"I do not believe the adherence of
; the American people to the league re
quires any demonstration." he con
tinued. “It Hal been undos disc no
tion for eight months. It has boon
given able debate and consideration
In It* every complexion. 1 betters
that the majority of oar people arm
coi vinced of. the neci-sslty of _ reser
vation* with tha teagoa. Both par
Usa to the conflict appear to concede
this. The conflicting groups over the
character of the reservations have,
gradually abandoned their extra*
ground and have come cl
appear ts an outsider that both aides
wars In agreement on all tha trust
major idem of the league, ana the
major 'ideas of reservations, hat that
they am in disagreement mostly over
secondary qaratieat in tha reserva

held in suspense. Infinite misery
goes on accumulating. Forces art
