Excerpt from Hearings Before the Committee on Agriculture: On Bills Having for Their Object the Eradication of the Cotton-Boll Weevil and Other Insects and Diseases Injurious to Cotton, and Also Hearings of the Hon. Secretary of Agriculture and Chiefs of Bureaus and Divisions of the Department of Agriculture on T

The committee met at 10.30 o'clock a.m., Hon. J. W. Wadsworth in the chair, for the consideration of the following bills: H. R. 4477, H. R. 5496, H. R. 7300, H. R. 7304, and H. R. 7646.

The Chairman. Gentlemen, the business before the committee this morning is the cotton-boll weevil question. I think Mr. Burgess, of Texas, wishes to address the committee.

Mr. Burleson. Yes; Mr. Burgess desires to make a brief preliminary statement.

Statement Of Hon. George F. Burgess, Representative From Texas.

Mr. Burgess. Gentlemen of the committee, I shall endeavor to make a brief statement of my understanding of this whole situation and in support of the bills introduced and now pending; and I will thank the committee if they will permit me to make the statement without interruption, assuring them that when I have concluded I will gladly answer any inquiry that the chairman or any other member of the committee may desire to make with reference to any matter.

The bill which I shall advocate immediate prompt action upon by the committee, and early report and a prompt action of Congress, the number of which is 5496, is not a hasty nor ill-advised one, and perhaps the strongest argument I can make in support of it would be to five a brief statement of the steps which successfully led to its introduction by myself, by request of the whole Texas and Louisiana delegations in Congress, unanimously.

You will notice that the bill states that it was introduced by me by request. Early in the session the Secretary of Agriculture and several of his subordinates having inspected the boll-weevil district in Texas and attended the boll-weevil convention at Dallas, Tex., upon their return we had a conference with the Secretary. As the result of that conference we prepared and signed a statement made to him in the form of a petition, which the committee will find printed in the Congressional Record of the 24th of November, on page 329.
