WOMEN BOOST COTTON GOODS
Merchants Of Cities Join Movement
to PopulariEs Wearing Of Cotton.
Made Garments.

The wearing OF more cotton.made
apparel Is a movement that was start
ed by the southern women in Wash
ington. and which has been taken up
enthusiastically by the women In all
sections OF the country. Hand In hand
with this movement was one insti-
gated by the dry-goods merchants in
all OF the large cities and in a great
number OF the smaller cities to popu.
larize the wearing OF eotton-made
garments
A cotton styles show was recently
held In Washington. The gowns dis.
played at this show. held in one OF
the hotels In Washington. will be worn
by the official women OF that city at
a cotton ball 10 be held during Decem.
Der. Washingtonlans thronged the
styles show and gazed In wonder at
the many dainty creations made ex.
clusiyely from cotton materials by the
modlstes. In other cities cotton balls
rave been the leading social func-
tions. and the popularizing of cotton
made garments has become a national
movement.
The department stores In the large
cities joined heartily in the movement.
Some Of the stores set aside a week
when special sales OF cotton goods
and cotton-made garments we're held.
Much space was used in their show
windows for the display Of the great
variety OF garments made from cotton
goods. Though general In character.
both OF these movements have had
wholesome effect In stimulating the
demand for cotton.wade goods. which.
OF course. viii mean the consumption
OF thousands OF additional bales by
American mills.
In New York City the Federation OF
Women's clubs with a membership
OF about 100000 have taken up the
movement TO encourage buying more
cotton goods and the wearing OF more
garments made from cotton cloth The
officers Of this organization have sent
an urgent appeal to the members ask
ing them TO aid their southern sisters
by usi1g cotton goods whenever pos
sible.
The American Association Of Cotton
Manufacturers have been awake to the
opportunities which the inability OF
the European countries to use Ameri-
can cotton has afforded them, and are
g.
put OF cotton cloth than has ever been
produced by American mills. During a
recent meeting OF the national asso-
citation at Lenox, Mass, the question
OF the manufacture OF more cotton
cloth and the providing OF markets
for H. r output was taken into con
sideratlon.

RAILROADS APPEAL
TO PRESIDENT
Inc Common Carriers Ask for
Neliei-President Wilson Di-
rects Attention of Public to
Their Needs.


The committee of railroad ex-
es,c.utiveS, headed by Mr.. Frank
irumbull, representing thirty
i've OF the leading railroad sys-
TENS OF the nation, recently pre-
Sented to President Wilson a
memorandum briefly reviewing
the difficulties now confronting
the railroads OF the country and
asking for the cooperation Of the
governmental authorities and the
publlc IN supporting railroad
credits and recognizing an emer-
geney which requires that the
railroads be given additional rev
enues.
lhe memorandum reciteS that
the European war has resulted in
general depression OF business on
the American continent and in
the dislocation of credits at home
and abroad. With revenues de-
creaslng and interest rates in
ereaslng the transportation sys-
tens OF the country face a most
serious crisis and the memorau-
DUN IS a strong presentation OF
the candle burning at both ends
and the perilS that must ultimate
ly attend such a conhagration
when the flames meet is apparent
to all. In their general discussion
the railroad representatives say
IN part: BY reason OF legiSla.
tlon and regulation by the Fed
eral Government and the forty
eight states acting independently
of each other, as well as through
the action OF a strong public opin-
ion. railroad expenses in recent
years have vastly increased. No
criticism is here made of the gen.
eral theory of governmental regu-
lation, but on the other hand. no
ingenuity can relieve the carriers
OF expenses created thereby"
President Wilson, in transmit
ting the memorandum of the rail
road presidents to the public,
characterizes it as "a lucid state
ment OF plain truth" The Pres
ident recognizing the emergency
as extraordinary, continuing. said
in part;
you ask me to call the atten-
tion of the country to the imper-
ative need that railway credits
be sustained and the railroads
helped in every possible way,
whether by private cooperative
effort or by the action. wherever
feasible OF governmental agencies
and ! am glad to do so because /
think the need very real"
The conference was certainly a
fortunate one for the nation and
the President is to he congratu-
lated for opening the gate to a
new world OF effort in which
everyone may cooperate.
There are many important
problems in our complex civili-
zation that will yield to co-opera-
tion which will not lend them
selves to arbitrary rulings OF
commissions and financing rail
roads is one OF them. The man
with the money is a factor that
cannot be eliminated from any
business transaction, and the
public is an interested party that
should always be consulted and
happily the President has invited
all to participate in the solution
Of our railroad problems.

SnnsIde Resnrts.

For many years the nations of con
kinental Europe have given considera-
ton to the development of seaside re-
sorts. Americans rarely stop 70 rea-
lie the extent TO which the possiblll-
ties of these numerous localities along
an extended and varied coast-iine
have been recognized and developed
abroad with a combination of business
tact and hygienic insight. In TINS
country the exploitation of the sea-
shore has been left largely 10 chance.
The number OF seaside resorts an
Prussia has grown from thirty-One IN
1850 to J56 at the present time; IN
Germany as whole, with It's conf
paratiyely small coast-line, there are
today 1874 localities in which the pos
sibiIities of the seaside arc publicly
developed in some degree.
The good that is accomplished IN
the way of promoting health, enjoy
ment and recovery from disease by
the modern development of the sea-
agency is undoubted, One wonders,
saws the Journal of tho American
Medical Association, whether there IS
not a far greater opportunity FOR tue
deyelopment OF some of our own natu-
raj coast resources for the public vel
fare than has been assumed hereto
fore The aim should always be 70
reach every group of our popul atlon'
so that the less favorably situated as
we'll as the more opulent might reap
at low cost the advantages which 4
fayofN blet climatic location has youch-
safed. -Thyen If the seashore hobby
were worshipped like a fetish, It could
do little else than good; for whatever
encourages the outdoor life OF our
people amid hygienic environment
is likely to be wholesome.
