BANK HEAD PROPOSES
STATE COTTON BONDS
Alabamian. Admitting Failure to Re-
ieve Situation in South. Puts
Forward New Proposition.

Admitting the failure OF the persistent
efforts put forward by Senators and Rep
resentatives from the cotton-grOwing
States, as well as their conferences with
the governors Of the States, to relieve
the situation with respect to the cotton
crop, Senator Bankhead, of Alabama,
came forward yesterday with an en-
tirely new proposition. In a speech in
the Senate, addressed to the people OF
Alabama, as an opep letter, Senator
Bankhead proposed the following solu-
ton OF the problem:
Let the governor call a special ses-
sion of the legislature at once for the
consideration of the cotton situation
alone. Have the legislature submit to
the people an amendment to the Consti-
tuition authorizing the State to issue
bonds in the sum of $4,000, 00O in de-
nominations Of SO. so. So 800. and s., ,O00
The Alabama cotton crop this year
will amount to 1.6eO.00O bales. The States
should buy one-half OF the crop OF each
Alabama produced at 10 cents a pound,
and pay for It in bonds. 1t is impos-
sible at this time to sell bonds in the
open market, SO that it would be neces-
sary for the State to pay for the cotton
with the bonds. The legislature should
provide that the bonds be accepted for
all taxes, State and county. It should
provide warehouse system for ware
housing the cotton"

'GERMANIzE BRUSSELS
IS THE POLICY INVOKED
ALI English. French. and Russian Sub
jects Will Be Ordered to Leave
City Within a Few Days.
AMERICANS HAVE EXPERIENCE

ESPECIAL dispatch to The Washington Herald and
London Daily TeleEnphJ
Brussels, Oct a-There are very few
German troops in this city, excepting
those who march through on their way
to other places.
A remarkable incident occurred on Mon
day. 1t mad been arranged that 135 Brit
ish nurses and forty American tourists
were to be sent by German troop train
to Aix-la-Chappelle and thence to Rot
terdam. The Americans were placed in
third-class carriages, and then It ap-
peared that three or four Of the nurses
names had been omitted from the list
supplied to the German commander at
the Care du Nord. The American vice
consul was present, and the German
commander complained that the papers
were not in order.
The vice consul attempted to argue the
point, whereupon the German officer
angrily tore up all the papers and flung
them to the floor. He absolutely declined
to allow the nurses to leave.
Subsequently the forty Americans were
transferred to second-class carriages and
sent to AK and thence to Rotterdam
Later the German governor of Brus-
sells sent two officers to DR.. w. wyle,
who was in charge Of the Red Cross
work. The officers apologized for the
conduct Of the commander at the sta
ton.
The reason for the Germans action in
sending away the nurses was that the
latter had discovered that many Of the
Germans killed and wounded had been
shot by German bullets. 1t was also
stated that at the examination of the
body Of the Kaiser's nephew, Count
Schwerin, the surgeons extracted eight
bullets. Subsequently two more bullets
were found and these had como from
German rifles.
The Germans are preparing lists of
all French citizens and English and
subjects in Brussels and with
in a few days these will be ordered to
leave the city, and IL is thought that
all the men OF the allied nations. ca
pable Of bearing arms. will be sent to
Germany, while their families will also
be compelled to leave Brussels.
In pursuit of their desire to make
Brussels a German city, the invaders
have issued instruction that all young
Belgians are to be taught German in
the schools. The first lessons in the
language commenced Friday. On Oc-
tober a German postoffice was start
ed in the city.

RESERVE BOARD WORK PUSHED
Preliminary Organization OF SyS-
ten Il About Completed.

TFeilninATy OrBaniAaNtOn OF Sye-
ten II About Completed.
The Federal Reserve Board yesterday
announced the Class C directors for the
Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, Ohio,
which was the last bank for which direc-
tors had to be named. The announce
ment of these directors completes the
preliminary work OF organizing the Fed
eral reserve system as farAs the board is
concerned. The remaining work OF or
ganizing each bank Is to be done by the
directors OF the institutions themselves
President Wilson indicated clearly yes
terday that he is determined that all
practicable haste shall be made in the
organization Of the system.
Considerable uncertainty has existed in
some quarters as TO what the real atti-
tude Of the reserve board was toward the
early organization Of the new system. A
belief exists that among certain members
of the board 1t was felt that 1t would
not be wise to open any Of the banks
until all Of them are fully prepared to
begin operation.

Got on Dangerous Ground.

Telling of his experience in Jolo, in the Philippines, writer in the New York Times says: "When l was first picking up some of their language there ran toward me one day a hand somely dressed little boy, his mother following at a distance. l picked the boy up and asked his mother how much he was worth. 1 thought it an utterly harmless way of attempting a civility. But the scream the mother let out, followed by a quick rushing of men with knives from all the huts roundabout. soon convinced me I had offended seriously. A priest of their faith. who had been giving me lan- guage lessons. was luckily among the first to arrive. 1 explained to him had meant nothing wrong. He in turn explained to me that bartering in chill dren was very much of a reality among them and. more than that, that 1t was not the custom for any man ever to address remark to their women at all I had doubly offended, as the child was d dattO's son, and only the children of the low and en- slaved were for sale"

Young crocodiIes Are Heard Before

Young CrocodIes Are. Heard Before
 They Are Hatched.
 That young unhatched crOcodiles ut ter an audible croaking cry within the eggs in which they are laid is averred by Knowledge, and it adds the cry is sos> loud and distinct that it. can, be heard when the eggs are buried under one or two yards of sand.
 Dr. W. A.. LambOrn tested the fact at Lagos on the West African coast. He heard crOaking noise from below dry. path, and, digging ill the path to investigate the cause, he discovered thirteen crocodile's eggs at q depth of about eighteen inches. All the young crocodiles hatched out within half an bour of being dug up. So far back as 1899 Dr. VOeltzkow noticed that unhatched Madagascar crocodiles uttered cry from the egg at a depth of two.syards and that any shock, as of a heavy tread, near the egg caused the baby crOcOdiles to pro- duce this sound with the mouth closed, as we produce hiccup sounds" In this way they inform the female crocodile when she visits the nest that they want her aid, whereupon, ,zshe scrapes the sand away and. they emerge.

Cocaine and Crime.

Police authorities have come. to re- gard cocaine as one of the recognized sources of crime. :. The cocaine tiend seems to have his moral sense destroy ed. The morphine devOtee is often a
 man of refined and elevated thought, with delicate perceptions and with q
 keen sense of honor and obligations except that he will always lie and de ceive to get possession of his needed
 dope" In his sober moments the al cOhol fiend is often man of cOnspicu ous honor. The cocaine fiend seems different. 1t is believed that cocaine directly stimulates to. evil passions and evil deeds.-Family Doctor. ..- ..
