GOVERNMENT TAKES UP THE MATTER
Secretary Daniels Would Use Navy To Transport
Wheat And Cotton To Europe

Confronted Win the pfODlell % |
disposing Of the country's enor-
nous grain and cotton crop, the
administration has made plans !
for conference this week in
Washington of representatives of
The leading shipping interests AMI
foreign exchange bankers.
The bankers have been asked To
come to Washington to formulate
plans for a resumption of the IN
ternalional exchange market and
restore the use of international
bills of exchange. The shipping
men will be asked to move Ameri-
can grain and cotton to the Euro
pean markets which have taken
them so literally heretofore.
lp, announcing the conference
canSSecretary McAdoo said.
<"n is of vital Importance to
The country that two things be-
done as quickly as possible. First
provide ships to move our grain
and cotton crops to European mar
kcts: the second, restore thrcu-h
the bankers The market for for
eign bills of exchange.
Grain is a very pressing prob
lem at the moment, because the
crops have been largely harvest
ed and the movement is already
well under way. The cotton mov"
ment is not SO advanced and will
not be for few weeks. IL rs th'
purpose TO invite conference ON
The subject of cotton, to be held
at an early date, of which am
nouncement will be made later.
These are important questions for
The American people and efory

crops
The senate again failed To pass
the amendment to the Panama
canal act admitting to American
register foreign-built ships more
than five years old. Some oppo-
silion developed, Senators Sim
mons and Williams, democrats
attacking the plan as dangerous
and inadequate to meet the situa-
tion.
Secretary Daniels expressed tho
hope today that freight might bf
carried to Europe on naval ves-
sells. Congress has granted the
necessary authority for handlpA
nail and light freight, but the
secretary said permission to us'
colliers for carrying cotton an'
grain would help the situation.
Just now" Mr.. Daniels said
"there is need for large ships to
carry cotton and wheat to Europ'
If Congress will authorize it th
navy can at once give helD. w.

Gilmore said he believed that a

uphold the contracts that hold play

SPORTING COMMENT


II fight fan as much on the
Western Coast as they do on the
Eastern. True, the Pacific en-
thusiasts like to see the clever
fellow, but they haven't a great
deal of use for him unless he is
capable of swinging the haymaker
of marketable power. The man
who combines the two, as Clabby
surely does now, is the ideal man
for the ring out there. Hence
Clabby's great popularity.
ONE of the choicest little bits
- of clever press work comes
from the Clabby camp. 1t is a
story to the effect that Billy Nc
Carney, manager OF the late Lu-
Their McCarty, acting for a Los
Angeles millionaire, has offered
Larney Lichtenstein the juicy
price of $4,000 for Clabby's con-
tract. Both Larney and Jimmy
are said to have Indignantly de-
clined even to discuss the offer.
But, knowing both men pretty
well. we also Indignantly decline
to have anything further to do
with the yarn. But we have curl
osity enough to want to know
what a Los Angeles millionaire
would want to do with the con-
tract if he got it.
TOMMY WALSH, VIII handled
Joe Mandot's affairs, has Il
powerful wall against the pres
ent no-decision system in vogue
in different parts of the country.
He cites the strange fact that In
the recent Mandot- Griffith con-
test in Windsor, just across the
river from Detroit, all bets We're
paid off on Mandot in Detroit.
but that in Chicago the pa
pers gave the verdict to Griffith.
It's strange. but true. In Detroit
two papers gave Mandot the de-
cision, two declared it a draw
and one gave it to the Ohio man.
And that one story giving the
fight TO Griffith was the one gem
orally telegraphed into Atlanta
and printed here.
