12-CENT MINIMUM LOAN
ON COTTON IS SOUGHT
Congressman and Farmers
Leaders Asked to Work
for That Figure

FORT WORTH, Tex, Spet. 14.-Con-
gressmen of the south and presidents
Of the southern associations have been
requested by Henry N. Pope, president
of the Association of State Presidents OF
Farmers Unions, to join in an effort to
secure a minimum loan of IL cents per
pound on cotton.
In commenting on his action Mr.. Pope
said:
This government in making a 12-cent
minimum loan on cotton would never be
called upon to jeopardize its credit, for
if a farmer knows he can borrow IL
cents per pound on cotton he will never
offer any cotton to the market for such
a low figure.
"A 12-cent loan minimum will make
a 20-cent selling minimum possible. Our
government has always found way to
protect the price of manufactured ar
ticles among home consumers, as agr1-
cultural product cotton is in a class OF
it's own The only product of the pillow
that is exported in large quantities we
ship over $500, 100000 worth of cotton
70 foreign countries per annum and con-
sumo less than 20 per cent of our pro-
duction'

FRENCH PAUSE AFTER
A SIX MILE ADVANCE
To NORTH Of PERONNE
Assaults Delivered by Germans
in Effort to Regain Lost Ter
ritory All Are FruitIeSs, AC-
Cording to Paris War Office
(By Associated Press. }

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE French
have paused in their advance north of
Peronne where they have driven a total
distance of six miles into the German
lines since July when the Somme Of
fensive began, ana now are withstand
ing series of German counter attacks.
Assaults were delivered last night on
the new French position both north and
south of the Somme, but were fruitless,
according to today's Paris bulletin.
The Macedonian campaign of the en-
tente forces apparently is not being
pressed on the right Of the Saloniki po-
sitton, the British, who advanced acrpss
the Struma, being reported 10 have with
drawn to the west bank
The Serbians, however, are continuing
their pressure against the Bulgarians
along the western end of the line.
The French war office report an
nounces that the engagement near Lake
Ostrovo is turning in favor of the al
lies and that Bulgarian trenches and a
height northwest of Lake Ostrovo have
been captured by Serbians.
Latest reports from both sides on the
campaign in the Rumanian province of
Dobrudja show the opposing forces in
contact along virtually the entire front.
Apparently a general engagement is inn
pending.
Dispatches through ITALY say an often

mapped out at the conference Of the cen
trail powers now in progress at German
headquarters, Germany's contribution to
the force being fixed at 100000 and Aus

RUSSIA AND JAPAN
AGREE TO MAINTAIN
+ CH||VA'S OPEN DOOR
Both Governments Assure Uni
ted States They Will Keep
,OId Treaties of 1907 and
1910
(By Associated Press.l

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-Both Japan
and Russia have given the United
States formal assurances that the new
Russo-Japanese treaty does not repeal
or affect the treaties of 1907 and 1910
in which those nations pledged them
selves to maintain the integrity of China
and the open door policy.
The assurances were given to Ambas-
sailors Guthrie at Toxic and Francis at
Petrograd, in response to inquiries. The
state department today received from
Mr.. Guthrie a note on the subject adj
dressed to him by the Japanese foreign
office stating in unequivocal terms that
Japan had not for a moment entertain
ed an intention of departing from these
policies.
Departmental officials let it be known
that the statements were entirely salts
factory, and that inquiries regarding the
new treaty, over which they had been
considerably perturbed, probably would
not be pressed further.
The Japanese note received through
Ambassador Guthrie was made public by
the state department today as follows:
The imperial governments desire to
assure the American government that
the new convention is in no sense de-
signed to reepal or modify the provis-
ions of article of the convention con-
clUded between Japan and Russia on
July 81, 1907, nor has the imperial gov
eminent entertained for moment any
intention to depart from the policy to
which they have avowedly committed
themselves respecting the maintainence
of the independence and territorial in
tegrity of China as well as the princi-
pie of equal opportunity for the trade of
all nations in that country. On the
contrary they are as strongly convinced
as ever of the usefulness of that policy
in the interest of the general peace and
stability in the far east which they
have all very near their hearts"
The result of similar inquiries made
for the state department at Petrograd
regarding the effect of the new treaty
is commented upon by the state depart
ment as follows:
THE minister for foreign affairs of
the imperial Russian government in like
manner assured the American ambassa-
dor in response to his inquiry, that his
government had not withdrawn from
the conventions of 1907 and 1910, but
will maintain unimpaired the provisions
of those agreements Notwithstanding
the fact that no mention of them was
made in the convention of 1916
