Federation Is Discussed.

The proposed federation has been much
.scussed since the colonial Office granted
PERMISSION for the trade agreement be-
tween Canada and the West Indian col
onies. c. Gideon Murray. administrators
of st. Vincent. lately prepared scheme
for the federation. but this proved unac-
ceptable TO the West Indies because it en-
cluded from the plan Jamaica, the Ba-
hamas and British Honduras.
The influence of the colonial Office will
carry great weight If it inclines to aid the
proposed federation. for 1t controls all of
the colonies except Barbados, which has
a constitution which gives ii a more near
~ responsible government than any other
colony outside of the dom'n
One of the initial difficulties TO be over
come in the efforts at federation will be
concerned with the maintenance of this
constitution. 1t has been proposed to
overcome this difficulty by making Bar
BADGES the seat of the new federal gov
eminent.
1t is claimed that federation would
greatly reduce the cost of adm nistration.
which is now d.sproportionately high:
that ii would lead to the establishment of
d common treasury. thereby enhancing
the credit of the colonies: that it would
result in the abolition of the present GUS
.oms duties which the islands have raised
against each other, and that it would
gradually establish uniform laws in place
Of the present tangled skein of imperial
laws and orders in council.

Cotton Consumption Increases.

The worlds consumption of cotton is
increasing rapidly. according to the an
nual statistics of cotton stocks and con-
sumption issued by the International Fed
GRAFTON of Master Cotton Spinners. The
figures rose from 1859. 4O1 bales in 1916
IL to 1885,. $50 in 1911-12. AT the same
time spipners stocks of American cotton
have increased by nearly million ba,es.
The report points out that as the
worlds spindles have only increased in
this time from 49,. 27S. 1o2 to 137. 693, iOS,
il is clear that the season just ended has
been extraordinarily free from "short
time and labor disputes involving long
and expensive stoppdges.
Depending upon reports of bumper
cotton crop in the United States. the
Lancashire spinners are looking forward
TO a season of unprecedented prosperity.
The federation of the British West In
dian colonies is probably to be brought
before the British government for APP
prevail very shortly.

FOR ICEBERG WATCH
Permanent Lookout Ship Is
Suggested.
PLAN BEING CONSIDERED
Americana Bred Race Horses Doing
Well in England-Consumption
of Cotton Increasing.

LONDON. October 1S.-A permanent
iceberg lookout ship in mid-Atlantic Is
suggested by the British board of trade
as a sequel to the report of Lord MerSey
on the Titanic disaster.
At present the plan is being considered
by tn. advisory committee of the board
OF trade. If the proposals are carried out
the vessel will be stationed in the track of
Atlantic travel and will cruise along the
boundaries of the ice region. She will
then be i'm a position TO warn the liners
by her powerful wireless equipment of
the exact position OF ice fields. The pro-
posed ship will also send warning of
drifting icebergs and any derelicts.
According to reports made to the adj
visory committee, the most suitable ice
berg ship would be of about 1000 tons
displacement, go feet long and 20 feet
broad, with a draft of IL feet q inches.
She would have speed of 10 knots and
consume l. tons of coal every "A hours.
Her wireless telegraph equipment would
be of the most powerful type and widest
range

HIGH SCHOOL WILL DEBATE
Will Clash With Cheney Team
At Newport.
Friday Evg., Nov. % the Date,

On Friday evening, Nov. %, will take
place the annual Inter-High School de-
bate of accredited High Schools in the
state of Washington. This year the
Newport High School debating team
will contest the first honors with the
Cheney High School. At preliminary
contest, held a few weeks previously,
the debaters selected to represent New
port in this public debate are Lucille
Williams and Lyla Strong, with Ethel
Albright as alternate.
The question selected for debate this
year is one of national prominence and
is of especial interest to each Estate in
the Union. 1t has to do with the con-
struction of state roads and Of perma-
neat highways. In full the question
reads: Resolved, That this state
should continue the policy of construct
ing state roads and permanent high
ways, with increasing appropriations
therefor.
The debate this year will be held in
Newport, and we trust that the parents
and patrons of the school will not fail
to manifest their cooperation in this
matter by their presence at this public
debate, as an expression of their inter-
est in the High School work, and as an
encouragement to the participants in
the debate. In order to compensate for
the expense incident to bringing the
debating team here from Cheney, and
the judges, who come from various
parts of the state, it will be obligatory
to charge nominal admission fee at
this debate. 1t is by provision of the
state that the expenses of these public
high school debates shall be met in the
above mentioned manner.
In the past the people of Newport
have always exhibited keen and lively
interest in all that pertains to the pro-
gress and we'll being of their public
schools, and we know that at this de-
bate on Nov. % there will be no abat-
ing of this spirit of interest. After the
debate proper the students of the High
School will entertain the visiting de-
batting team at an informal reception.
The debate will be held in the Moose
Hall at 8:15 p. m.

During a Year.

NEW YORK, April cit would he n
difficult matter to estimate the number
of miles covered in the air by aviators in

though American aviators must be cred
