FACING RUIN 



Plight of Holland Growers Because 

 of American Quarantine 



The following letter from the Royal 

 Tottenham nurseries of Dedemsvaart. 

 Holland, gives a pathetic sidelight on 

 the effect of the Anierit^an plant 

 quarantine: 



"We hope that your Nurserymen's 

 and Florists' organizations will take 

 strong action with Congress in order 

 to get niodilications of the pre.sent 

 quarantine. We fear, however, that 

 unless these modifications will soon 

 come it will be too late to save the 

 position of hundreds of hard work- 

 ins nurserymen, who are now strug- 

 gling against ruin. They are fighting 

 the last fight, and the end will be that 

 millions of plants, which are badly 

 wanted in the United States, will 

 have to be burned and the owners be 

 totally ruined and come to despair. 



"The cost of production of plants 

 here are at least double what they 

 were before the war, and the high 

 value of the Dutch Gilder makes it im- 

 possible for lots of countries, which 

 were the best customers in pre-war 

 times, to buy anything. We went 

 around Boskoop, Ghent, and other 

 plant exporting centers and every- 

 where we found the same sad condi- 

 tions. It is a heavy moral responsi- 

 bility which your Federal Horticul- 

 tural Board has lightly taken up. and 

 the world will lose much if It will be 

 impossible henceforth to get lots of 

 plants, which add so much to make 

 the lives of people bright. 



"According to our opinion your 

 F. H. Board ought also to prevent any 

 people entering the United States in 

 order to prevent diseases among men 

 to spread. We fervently hope that 

 the step your committees will take 

 will meet with the success it deserves 

 and that common sense will again 

 rule with your officials, who seem to 

 at present have the international hor- 

 ticultural trade by the throat." 



The Royal Tottenham Nurseries are 

 probably the world's largest growers 

 of herbaceous perennials, which are 

 shipped to all countries. They have 

 introduced many of the varieties now 

 produced here.
