Upon reports made by the various
lumber industries of Hattiesburg and
Forrest county, the general condition
of the lumber business is better today
than it has been for weeks.
A more hopeful feeling today is held
by the lumber manufacturers than has
been evident since the outbreak of the
war. While the prices have not ad-
vancedAth tone of the market is en-
couraging. Dimension stock, timbers,
and low grade of boards and flooring
are in demand with prices showing
strong. Three-inch flooring is not only
in demand but at this particular time
it is reported scarce and hard to find.
Buyers are not as optimistic as are
the manufacturers. They find some
trouble in placing orders even when
the price can be Agreed upon. They
report specifications difficult to meet
and the time limit for delivery hard
to agree upon. Buyers. in this city
who have just returned from the mid

PRESIDENT WON'T CHANGE HIS POLICY
 TOWARD MEXICANS

Washington, May 25.=President Wilscon does not contemplate any change of Mexican policy as a result of the ereport by Du Val West, his special commissioner, who recently. re- turned from an investigation. The President told callers to-day that MT. West had not suggested an embargo on exports of war munitions from the United States into Mexico.
 President Wilson said MT. West had orally supplemented written reports made during his investigation in Mex ico and that while MT. West had giv- en him much information no change in the administration attitude was contemplated.
 MT. West is understood to have pointed out that none of the various factions seemed to have the element requisite to dominate the country and bring peace.
