PLAN FIGHT ON PINK 1OLL WORM Measures to Protect Cotton Industry Against. Pest to bie Discussed. Washington, May 15.-Measu res for protecting the cotton Industry against the 1pink boll worm will be discussed at a conference here tolnorrow between the department of ogriculture and rep resentatives of the cotton growing States. Failure o.f Texas to probide for adequate (luarantine and control work, the department said, necessi tated the formulation of a now policy to prevent the spread of the pest. The pink boll worm was said by C. 1. Marlatt, chairman of the federal horticultural board, to be present in Texas, Ioulsiana and New Mexico. "The menace of the pink boll worm to the cotton crop of the coun ltry is n1ow fully recognized," lie added lin his sum m11ary of tile situation. Based tpoll losses occasioned by it in receit. ye(as' ii l0gypt, lrazil, Ilawaii and \lexico, lie continued, the department estimated its Spread through the cot I on belt would mean an ann iiual loss of from twenty to forty per cent of the cotton helt crop, 'or a money loss of several hilindreds million dollars annu11ally." The federal government took prompt action to beat .back the pink boll worm when it first a peared in Texas in 1917 from .'l exico, tile departmeit. said, ad ding that iwith the complete co-opera tion of the states invaded "there seem ed to be a fair chance of eradication of the pest." Mr. Marlatt said the "failure of Texas to provide for such (IIarainille and contiol Work as will in the judg ment of the xixperts of tiIs department and of several states he adequate to hold tle pest within its present limits in that state, and the abandonment as a general policy of the only nwvthoul enforcement of non--cotton zones which Would possibly lead to the extermina tion of the pest in the infested areas, necessitates a careful consideration of the -whole fut!'re pink boll worimI work in. the United ;tates, and Ilore partI cttlarly the quarantine 01 Cont rol ac tion which should be takena Witih re spect to the Insect toL prevent its spread throughout the cottoin growinag states."
