to act as detectives to find outlaw
cotton plnnters in Texas, Arizona and
southern California.
Lieutenant Compere nt Ellington a
year ago investigated the cotton situ-
■itlon. Owing to danger of mi Inva
sion of pink bollworm from Mexico it
was necessary to create restricted
safety zones where no cotton could be
grown. Certain outlaw planters In
land surrounded by heavy forests have
defied the government and planted In
these districts, which are ditllcult to
find. The young Californian took a
camera with him, cruised over the for-
esta at a 7,000-foot abituile, and
snapped seven outlaw fields. The
fields were destroyed. Compere lias

soon return to California to organize
the agricultural aviation scout work on
