act) would be violated in any respect
by the carrying out of a plan which
has been devised for raising and aii-
ministering fund of $135,O0G 900 to
be lent on the security of cotton. A
copy of the plan is attached hereto.
Countries which take. annually

ton-more than, half the crop, are now
engaged in war. Trade between the
United States and those countries in
some cases virtually has come to "a
complete stop. anf In others has been
seriously hindered. Foreign exchange
has been badly demoraliZed. In con-
| sequence of these extraordinary con-
| ditions, 1t has been impossible to oh .
| tain in the usual ways the large
| amount of cash required to liquidate
| the indebtedness incurred I'm the
course of raising and marketing the
cotton crop.
ITO meet this situation the plan in
| question has been proposed. It con-
templates the making mp by D syndi-
cate, composed principal!:y ef banks

dividual members OF the federal re-
serve board and svsrious auxiliary
committees.
| Nothing La the nature OF price fix-

involved. Loans will be made as free

ers. The members OF the syndicete
Twill be perfectly free to make other
! loans in any amount, to any persons
and on xny lawful terms. Borrow
ers will be under no restraint what
ever as to the price or the time at
which they may sell their cotton. Nor

or In not borrowing as they see fif

CLEAN PICTURES

The ladies' of the Civic Association
are to be commended for their stand
in reference to prohibiting objection
able pictures in the moving picture
shows in the city. There Is no factor
more educating than good moving pic
lures and the converse OF the propO-
sition is equally true.
Tie power OF suggestion to the
young mind through what is seen on
the screen is highly developed and
Impressions received by improper
pictures and improper vaudeville per-
formanceB are hard to overcome. The
Intelligencer is indeed glad to note
this movement on the part of the lad
les, and is also pleased that the man

Anderson so gracefully consented TO
DO as they wished. although at per-
haps financial loss to themselves.
In this matter, as IN the blind tig -
proposition. The Intelligencer believ-
es in upholding the hands OF those
WHO desire to do right and we trust
hat the patronage of these theatres
will not fall off, but that the managers
will be fully justified by their con-
lidence in the high moral tone of this
community.

BREAK ALL Local
RECORDS FOR MAIL WORK

All records for mail handling at the
Postoffice were broken during the
Christmas rush ending yesterday.
While every day for the past week had
been hard for the men, Thursday was
the climax, and during the hours be-
tween 8 a. m. and 10 p. m. Postmaster
English had account made Of all first
class letters cancelled here. The fig
ures showed that the sum total Of
such mail was 47S.000. These figures
do not include the vast amount of sec
ond and third class mail matter
handled
In speaking of the efficient manner
in which the vast amount of mail
matter was handled this season, Mr..
English declared that he owes it en-
tirely to the able work of the clerks
and carriers in the office He declar-
ed that he appreciated fully the eff
cient and conscientious work of every
man connected with the office, and
desired to express his thanks to each
of them.
The parcel post system. as shown
by the number Of packages handled
this season, has assumed enormous
proportions, and should it increase in
the same ratio next year that it has
over last year, the present large build
ing will be taxed to the limit to ac-

ways a fairly large company Of troop

Their enthusiasm is a stimulus TO re-
cruiting, but this is accidental and a
secondary result of the leave system
The primary effect is the improvement
in the temperament of the men after
they return TO the front The splendid
fighting qualities of the British eNpcdi.
tionary corps, which is one of the out.
standing TEXTURES of the war, is un-
doubtedly due, in large part, TO The
measure taken TO prevent an outbroak

The soldiers themselves have TO con.
tribute in part TO this method of i'm
creasing their efficiency. No free trans
portation home is granted. Railway
and cross Channel steamship tickets arc
issued 20 the men at reduced rates, but
they must pay all charges themselves
An agitation has begun in England q
