In his first purely political pro nouncement since entering the White House, he bluntly informed the old or ganizations in South Carolina, Geor gia and Mississippi that they had lost the admiT\istration’s confidence be cause of abuse in handling federal patronage and called upon the people of those states to byild new organiza tions. Conversely he commended the lead ership in the other Southern states in the effort to “broaden the basis of party organization by the establish ment of adAUSory committees of the highest type of citizenship to deal with administration questions and who will also cooperate with independent Democrats.” The organizations, the re-creation of which wjis decreed by the president, are headed in South Carolina by Jo seph T. Tolbert, for many years na tional committeeman, and in Missis sippi by Perry Howard, a Negro, who also has had long service as national committeeman and who is now await ing trial in connection with patronage distribution.

Creager, national committeeman for Texas; Oliver D. Street, national committeeman for Alabama; Wallace Townsend, national committeeman for Arkansas; Emile Kuntz, national com mitteeman for Louisiana, and Glenn B. Skipper, national committeeman for Florida. The president said that Republican leadership in the border states and in Virginia and North Carolina “has long since built up vigorous party organi zation which assures Republican rep resentation in congress from those states.” These states ks wiel as Texas and Florida cast their electoral votes for Mr. Hoover in the last election.

In front of the house, aroynd the church or the school, in the courthouse square, the cemet^ lot, or a little park at the depot, rich green grass is a rest for the eyes. But good grass has to be nourished—though you might not have thought so. To grow it right, grass must be fed on its own plant foods.
