COMPLETE RESERVE BOARD.
Warburg and Delano Are Favorably
Reported to Senate.

Washington, d. c., Aug. 5.-Nomi-
nations of PAU NJ, Warburg of New
York and Frederick A. Delano of Chi
cago to be members OF the federal
reserve board, were favorably re-
ported to the senate late today by
the banking committee Action on
them was deferred until tomorrow.
Senator Bristow, who opposed the
federal report of the Warburg nomi-
nation by the committee on banking
and currency, moved in executive
session that the testimony of the
hearing of Mr.. Warburg be made
public. Senator Shafroth objected,
but Senator Bristow will insist u0on
his motion when it comes up to-
morrow.
Confirmation of the nominations
may be delayed but administration
leaders intend to press for quick ac-
ton so that the federal reserve board

SPECTATORS BUSY
DESPITE THE WAR
UNCERTAINTY DOES NOT KEEP
WHEAT BUYERS FROM KEEP
ING UP A BRISK TRADE.

Chicago. Aug. 5.-Notable broaden
ing out of speculative business on
change today accompanied the whirl-
ing Of Great Britain into a general
European war. Despite the enforce
ment of 10 per cent margins, the
Jublic at large would not be re-
strained from taking a liberal hand
at trading in which rapid price
changes covered a range of more
than 4 cents bushel and which re-
suited in an extreme net advance of
3 IA cents for wheat.
Export conditions were in greater
confusion than at any time since the
war began. Notwithstanding that a
majority of dealers looked for a solu-
ton being reached through action Of
the treasury department at Washing
ton in lieu of seemingly futile efforts
in London, the prospect of success
was sufficiently doubtful to keep
leaders if not the public in con
sentative mood
One Of the most serious features c.
the wheat trade was the fact that
20,000000 bushes intended for export
were held up in virtual blockade at
Galveston and New Orleans. With
the big gulf outlets choked, south
western train loads were being head
ed for Chicago, and unless relief
should be afforded were threatening
to swamp temporarily the market
here.

The Submarine Strikes Again.


Another English cruiser, the Hawke. has fallen
a victim to German Submarine A time has been
reached when it may be asked seriously whether
heavy naval armament is not on the verseaof be-
coming obsolete So far, no battieship of the frs,
class has been disabled. but is well understood
that neither the English nor German navy possesses
bstieshp that can withstand the discharge of the
submarines torpedo.
The fight on the seas so far has gone against
England, but only because Germany has locked IN
her bat1eships The English Submarines far out
number those of Germany, and would give equally
as good an account of themselves If the opportunity
afforded itself. Unfortunately, England with its
overwhelming sea power is playing the lion to the
tantalizing mouse and If the Germans do not elect
to out and fight more German submarine VIC
tories likely to be reported To protect her COM
meTce England must keep fair proportion of her
feet at The work of the submarine demonstrates
that of her batteships or cruisers is safe from
attack, which is always gaexpected, and usually
disastrous
If the deadly effectiveness of the submarine con-
tnues to be manifested it practically result in
the elimination of the bsttleship. At any rate, il
would seem advisable for the Secretary of the Navy
to think twice before signing contracts for the build
ing of $I4oooooo batteships which may become mere
junk as soon as they are launched Already some
lessons may have been learned from the war.

Novel Plan to Boom Cotton.

correspondent who expresses desire to assist
the cotton grower and enters hearty Endorsement of
the movement of Southern women to substitute cot
ton goods for wearing apparel of other material and
thus create demand from the factories, has sub
mitted suggestion which undoubtedly would result
in greatly increased consumption of goods How it
win be accepted remains to be seen.
'Tf," says he "our fair women of the South would
change the fashions of their garmes, adding about
two yards to the size of their skirts which by the
way would add much to the modesty of their dress,
it would go long way toward consuming our surplus
cotton"
The correspondent figures out that in this way
3oooooooo yards would be added to the consumption
of cotton goods; mills would open their doors, and
thousands would be given employment. Thus, not
only the cotton grower but the whole country would
benefit.
The women of the South can be depended upon
to do their part in the proposed cotton propaganda
Thousands viii give up the finer clothes, perhaps,
more than willingly because il may become fad
The proposal to increase the width of the skirt how
ever is doomed to failure this at least It
would be sacrificing too much or rather, too little
The use of cotton cloth may become general but its
makeup viii always follow styie-and the latest
style. The return of the 0inoIine would be great
boon to the South, but it viii not be effected in the

compensahOns for War.

There is another gain from war not quite so well
recognized. i is that people begin to take them
selves seriously They do not expect a newspaper
to devote most of its space to baseball personal
gossip, tango teas and the latest fooery from New
port There rises, as after the Napoleonic wars
grave and sensible people at all deficient in the
sense of humor but seeing life it is and not as
fools would wish it to be.
There develops, in fact, after any great war. a
creative literature and art During those periods,
when nations have obviously been preparing for
conflict of arms, the human mind was critical and
not creative, except in mere mechanical sense
But man does not live BY bread alone. There are
spiritual necessities incalculably higher The only
possible progress for mankind is moral The seeds
of sown in blood and tears Death is dreadful
thing but by no means the most dreadful thing in life
This is true of nation as much as of man. Death
is followed by the resurrection of the man, and also
of people worth saving

Fifty years ago today the Federal
and Confederate soldiers In the
trenches at Petersburg were taking
life easy and enjoying a self-arranged
truce. As had happened before in the
war. at Vicksburg and Port Hudson
particularly, the soldiers had become
tired of shooting at one another at
close, range, and by agreement they
suspended fighting during the greater
part of the day.
Rival pickets fraternized and an ac-
tive trading between ''Rebs" and
'FYanks' sprang up. The Southerners
were well supplied with tobacco,
whereas the Northern troops possess
ed many little luxuries almost un-
known in the Confederate camps. So
here and there between the lines, where
small clumps of bushes concealed the
operations from watchful superiors.
Exchanges were established and a
iourishing business was done
As an example of the manner in
which this was sometimes conducted.

federate to a member of the I1sth

ment Is reproduced in a-recent edition

Some FederaIs Desert.
The familiarity between the troops led
to one abuse, desertion. This was not
confined to the Confederate organizations.
for there are frequent accounts Of acees-
cesIons to the Southern ranks from the
Federal regiments. Federal deserters
were almost' all substitutes who had en-
listed merely to get the liberal bounties
offered at the North.
Bounty jumpers were a continual source
