PUBLIC LETTER BOX
Sympathy viii Increase Loyalty
Omaha, July IS, 1917.
To the Editor of the Tribune

OWaIds July 20 1911.
To the Editor of the Tribune
The propaganda Of the Defense
Councils, security leagues and other
acclaimed patriotic agencies, to con-
vince the public that the attitude of
large numbers of citizens of foreign
descent towards the war, is near
treason, proceeds largely from two
principal motives or with two OBJ
jects in view. The first is to induce
these foreign born to put faith in
the theory that our entry into this
war was forced upon US by the
central powers; that we acted purely
in self defense and for the purpose
Of saving democracy for our poster
ity and for the world at large.
The megaphone of the press was
employed to its fullest extent TO
prove, that had we not entered the
war, it would only be a short space
of time before these shores would be
invaded and oyerrun by the enemy.
1t was assumed that this theory
would convert the lukewarmness Of
these foreignborn into ardent enthus-
iasm for the war, and to make them
forget their racial ties.
The second object was, to inculcate
fear into the minds of all, who might
entertain and voice opposition to the
war. The cries of traitors, spies,
foreign plotters, explosions and
destruction of property to aid the
enemy, either directly or by impliea
ton laying blanket charges against
all foreign born, acre invariably
coupled with dire threats Of severe
punishment even for the slightest
abuse Of the freedom Of speech. 1t
was, in fact, an attempt TO intimidate
in order to force submission to cur
tailment Of free speech as guaran-
teed by the constitution.
Now let US see il the methods en-
ployed could reasonably be expected
to produce the desired results. AS
to the first proposition, it could
scarcely be expected that the very
people for whose benefit this pro-
paganda was staged, would accept
as true the unsupported evidence as
to the reasons why the United States
should enter the war. 1t was omit
ted from the calculation that these
very people had a really better
perspective Of European politics lead
ing US into war than the average
native American, because they were
more familiar with conditions abroad
During the first two and half years
foreign news papers were accessible
TO them; they were in a position u
see both sides of the question, and
up to our active participation, it was
not reasonable for them to oppose
war. With the declaration Of war.
however, all that is changed "in the
twinklng Of "a eye. and thess

Avery's Letter

The cotton market was a little time until about I o'clock, when a 5O00- bale buying order of Schley's, said to be for Weld, found contracts scarce and this started the ball rolling again and an excited advance occurred which raised prices to new heights Julys in New York sold at 2310c The week end statistics turned out bearlsh on spinners' takings, although the Liv- erpool forwardings indicated they would be heavy. but American takings brought the total down to 165 Oe0 The into-sight figures were small. being about half of last year and as such were bullish
 In any ordinary market such rise as we have had, nearly $1S.50 per bale. drastic reaction would 3e over due, but this market squares with nothing have ever seen. It may be We are overlooking something. The carry over. compared with the nor nal figures of. American cotton at the end of the season, promises to be bear ish If we do not go behind the re- turns. but this is because nearly the whole of the American visible is be- ing carried here at home. Possibly we are overlooking the fact that values are only relative and that present prlces Tor cotton represent the in- creased cost of replacing what cotton IS left. I made mention of this phase of the situation sometime ego, but at that time I had no idea that the de- mana would cause such an imitation in price. However. cost production has advanced daily; that Is to say, the things necessary to purchase in order 10 raise crop of cotton have au- vanced and perhaps in greater ratio than the price for the staple. Corn, white meat butter eggs, oats, pota- toes. harness, shoes clothing every thing in fact, have advanced faster than cotton. Another phase, which is all important in regard to the crowd in New York. who have the long con tracts. and that is the very small stock held there, which amounts at present to only about 1 8 900 bales. This gives New York bulls manipulative club which they can use any way they see fit. The small stock in I.iyerpool also makes that crowd afraid of the short side and sends them to lone hedges in our markets.
 Another feature, which may have Influenced todays rise particularly. is the possibility of increased exports soon because of the improvement in the shipping situation, although was told today by prominent exporter that he had offered sS 50 for Ltverpool freight and had 1t refused This does not look like any Improvement

RENEW STRENGTH
 .ON COTTON MARKET
General List Closed Steady at Net Gain of B to g
 Points

New York. June s.-An irregular open the cotton market today with all deliv- cries making new high records for the season october contracts sold up from 21. DOC to 22.6Sc, making an advance of 60 points from last nights final figures, and that delivery closed at 22.l9c with the general list closing steady at net gain of 8 to 52 points.
 The market opened at a decline of 1s points on July, with reactiorAry sentt- ment encouraged by relatively easy ca bles and favorable weather map. Later deliveries were unchanged to [ points higher, however, and the general list soon firmed up on covering and reports of re- newed trade buying against forward sales of goods. After showing a net ad yarce of about + to P points, there were reactions of 9 or 10 points under realiz- ing, but there were very few contracts for sale and the market turned very firm during the early afternoon. The appear ance of further buying orders from trade sources. seemed to stimulate cov-
 
 was renewed buying by brokers who have recently been credited with operating for Wall street or western interests. There was realizing On 8 scale up, particularly in the case of July, but offerings were quickly absorbed until the month sold at 23.l0c and December 22.77c, with the gen. eral list showing net advance of 42 to 64 points. Last prices were several points off from the best under profit taking. Reports that cotton was beginning to bloom in southern Alabama, following yesterdays advices that the first bale of new crop cotton was expected in the southwest next week, seemed to encour- age some of the early selling, as it led to talk of a freer early season move ment than previously expected There was also some scattered selling here said to be against cotton in the southeast which might be shipped for delivery on contract, but these features seemed to be overshadowed by reports that mills had been heavy buyers to protect themselves against forward sales of goods Exports for the day were 9361 bales, making 4,- 962,S17 so far this season.

New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, June Skew high levels were reached all around in the cotton market here today. Both spots and fu- lures went to the highest prices yet seen this season on buying which was per- sistent almost from the opening The feature of the day was the scantiness Of offerings. Buyers found only a small dribble of contracts to supply their de- mand, At the highest the trading months were 56 to 60 points or s bale on the strongest months over yesterdays last quotations, The close was A to AS points up net. Spots were marked up 25 points to 22.3Sc a pound for middling At the highest July was quoted at P. 65c.
 On the opening, prices were lower in sympathy with a poor Liverpool, active months losing II to 19 points. On this re- cession new buying of consequence came in and the gossip of the floor had it that both Liverpool and Chicago were leading in the buying. Chicago and western in terests were particularly prominent as buyers of October. Around the middle of the day talk of a squeeze in July devel- oped. From the initial decline prices were lifted gradually until the early aft ernoon when the topmost levels were reached. From the lowest to the high est there was a rise of 75 points,
 Reports that maximum prices would be dropped from the government food con- trol bill had something to do with the advance in the afternoon.
