THE OUTLOOK FOR COTTON

The New York Commercial saTs
Recent Developments indicate that
the crisis in the cotton situation is
passing and that an improvement.
slow perhaps, but steady, may be ex-
pected with confidence from this
time forward. The favorable features
are the completion OF arrangements
to raise a pool of $135, 100000 to lend
on cotton, the announcement in
Washington that Great Britain has
given assurances that cotton will not
be regarded as contrband OF war and
the virtual consummation OF plans to
reopen the exchanges.
The cotton pool is possibly the most
important OF the various measures
adopted to relieve the situation. not
only because it places at the dispos-
al of borrowers a great fund, but be-
cause it establishes a loaning basis
The bankers. with the approval Of
the federal reserve board, have ag-
reed to lend &C pound on cotton
That agreement fixes the loan value
OF the staple and viii encourage
small banks not in the pool TO ad-
vance money on the same basis in
their own territory.

with ammunition from the bodies OF
the dead and stood them alongside in
the trenches, and when the enemy
came back he was received by fire
from his own weapons.
TO guard against surprise at night
we took all the empty beef cans tied
them to cord and piled them so that
when the Germans came creeping to-
ward our lines and the cord was
touched, they made enough noise to
give the alarm. One night when the
cans ratified, we replied with i'm
mediate volleys and there was no
more disturbance that night. In the
morning we counted five hundred
dead Germans lying on the ground
within hundred yards of the
trenches"

I looked out on the star-lit sky,
The first frost said sharp, good bye
To summer, to waiting, "Ah," said /,
"When Winter comes with its frozen
nights,
When Winter comes with it's gleam-

And the foes have vanished DER the
heights
Beyond the town.
Then he'll come down
Come running down
From the ruined town
To find the hut we built in the wood
With hurried hands, to hide if we
could

sons should,

good"
Why bear we sons if go they must
To satisfy an emperors lust.
To kill or die in the shrapnels dust!
Tell me, o men, if in God you trust,
Why don't you let your armor rust
Or be turned to plows? That were
more just
To the human race
Give us release
From War, and Peace
Will find her place.
o Lord Christ, was it this you meant
by your message of sweet intent,

Peace if from birth to manhood we

the cotton belt to accept cotton as
collateral since the war began has
been one Of the disturbing features
OF bad situation Bankers have had
the excuse that they did not know
what cotton was worth. Now that
the cotton pool, backed by the Unit

| it is safe to lend cents pound, the
little financiers Will have more cour-
age OF course the establishment Of
a loaning basis will help farmers who
do not wish to sacrifice their cotton
to hold it for better prices. 1t also
will be of benefit to cotton buyers
who heretofore have had difficulty
in buying for forward shipment be-
cause banks have been reluctant to
advance them funds.
Scarcely less important for the in

New York is still a pivotal state,
as well as pie eating state. Its
balloting is so heavy that the count
cannot be made in the antiquated
fashions in style around here. If, in
the next presidential election New
York should adopt the Kansas, okla
homa and Missouri style of counting
the country might have to wait seven
or eight weeks to find out who was
elected president. They use voting
machines in New York, and the re-
suits are known Immediately after
the polls are closed.

Terre Haure, Ind.-Rev. Clarke r.
Parker, pastor of the First Baptist
Church, believes in keeping step with
the times. He uses moving pictures
to illustrate his Sunday evening lee
lures now, and his church is always
crowded. The "standpatters' said a
lot of harsh things about Parker
when he began using the films to
illustrate his sermons, but the mass
of people liked the idea, and men and
women who had forgotten what the
inside of a church looked like are now
regular attendants.
