cotton situation arising from the
European war is being rapidly clear
ed up, in the opinion of, President
Wilson He told callers today the
end of the war alone would restore
normal conditions in the cotton in
dustry, but that rapid progress was
being made in he efforts TO assist
the cotton growers of the South.
The President based his optimism
concerning the cotton situation on
the plans for furnishing money to
the cotton planters and on the open
ing of foreign markets He said that
here is every reason why all ports
should be open to cotton and pre-
dicted that they would be.
Mr.. Wilson declared that Southern
business men with whom he had
talked had not been deeply appre-

added that he had been confident all
along the question would work itself
out with the assistance OF the adj
ministrative officers of the govern.

THAT HE WILL OFFER
FOR REELECTION.

Alderman NJ. b. McKinnon of the
Second ward announces elsewhere in
The News this morning that he will
tie candidate for reelection In the
coming white primary.
This announcement will be of
interest to Mr. McKinnon's many
friends, especially in view of the
fact that some time ago he decided
to not again offer for aldermanic hon
ors His friends, however, and the
business people of the city generally
have since then urged him to again
serve as a member of council so
strong has this appeal been that he
has acquiesced.
MIR. Mckinnon has been u member
of council from the Second ward for
the past four years and he has made
an excellent record. lie is at present,
and has been since he first went into
office, chairman of the city's finance
committee, and, with the cooperation
of the other members of the coin,
mittee, as well as council generally
has succeeded in materially reducing
the floating indebtedness of the city,
and has at the same time stood for
all measures that mean progress to
the city. He was the moving spirit
in he recnt law converting all town
commons property into fee simple,
which has been successfully worked
out
Mr. Mckinnon, of course, will not
have any opposition for reelection.

heve that the battle along he sea
coast because of the German ad-
vances near LaBassee, will be more
prolonged than was at first antici-
dated. Ii the government does re-
turn to Paris such a step undoubt-
edly will have tremendou smoral
effect.
Essad Pasha, the chronic disturber
of the peace of Albania, is said to
have invaded Northern Epirus. If
this is true it may bring about the
entrance Of Italy into the conflict,
according opinion in London. Es-
sad's activity may compel Italy to
consider the necessity of occupying
Avlona, step which might not meet
with favor in Austria-Hungary.

by Portirio Diaz.
Indications are that the peace CON
vention at Aguas Calientes will be a
complete failure
Speculation is general now as to
what will follow the Carranza procla-

usully active in getting his forces to-
gether in preparation for a fight
against Carranza and the forces lned

Carranza has already taken steps

battle in the northwest. He says:
The battle RACES along the User

driven back over the User; Friday
they secured footing again and

Actions by armored trains, some
OF them the most reckless adyen-

accumulates an unwritten record of
individual daring feats, accepted as
part of the daily work. Day by day
men push out on these dangerous ex-
plorations, attacked by shell fire, In
danger of cross fire, dynamite and
ambuscades, bringing priceless sup
port to the threatened line. AS the
armored train approaches the river
under shell fire the ear cracks with
the constant thunder of guns abroad.
1t Is amazing to see the angle at
which the guns can be swung.
And overhead the airmen are busy

THE ARMY.

s,r Henry Gibson Craig of London,
Eng, is at the Oglethorpe, where he
will remain several days pending
word from the British government,

Sir Henry, young man Of pleas

take his place in the army, where
he has already served.
Like all Englishmen, the young
baronet is intensely patriotic, and
while out of touch with affairs, In
England and the situation in Europe,
is absolutely certain that the allies
will eventually triumph.
