Asks Merchants Not to Ac-
cept Them in Payment
for Goods Sold
MotivesNotQ Questioned
But, He Says, the Practice
Prejudices the Governments
Thrift Policies

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2s.--Merehants
who have been Offering to take Liberty
bonds at par or az a premium for
merchandise were appealed 70 By Sec
rotary McAdoo tonight 20 stop the
practice.
"While ! have no doub, that these
merchants are setuatod by patriotic
motives" the Secretary said, Il am
sure that they have Jailed TO consider
the effect which the acceptance OF
their offers would have upon the stu
alton. We are making the strongest
effort 70 have these government bonds
purchased for permanent investment
b. the people az large, 20 be paid for
out Of the past or future savings OF
those who buy them. Purchases thus
made not only result in providing
funds Tor the uses of the government
but they also effect conservation OF
labor and material.
"When the bonds are exchanged fer
merchandise Il defeats the primary OBJ
feet OF their sale--it discoursges
thrift and increases expenditures, thus
deriving the government Of labor and
material needed for war purposes. IN
addition 70 this, such bonds when
taken in exchange for merchandise
must In most cases be immediately
sold in the open market. This nat
urally tends 20 depress the market
price of the issue and makes II less
easy 20 sell future issues at the same
pa+e"

Mayor Mitchell declared yesterday be-
fore the West Side Improvement Com
mission he did not believe the Legs
lature ought TO intervene 20 settle
The West Side controversy between the
city and the New York Central Rail-
road. lie added THAI the Legislature
had already stepped in once at the mo-
ment o. fruition Of plan for the
freieh. traffic situation and by the
passage OF the Ottinger-Ellenbogen
measure prevented a solution.
81 am for nome rule in local matters
such as this he said. Il ain not in
favor Of substituting for TIE knowledge
Of the local authorities the stupidity
aud ignorance Of the Legislators. Let
the city administration stand or fall
b. its actions. r. the public has Sc.
lec:ed an open minded city govern.
ment the question will be properly con-
sidered and the public will be lucky
If. on the other hand, we have a gov
eminent opposed TO an equitable settle.
ment, the responsibility will rest Will
the people who selected such officials
] think this problem should be lcf'
70 the new Board Of Estimate. Oi
course | don't know what the attitude
OF the administration will be. but
assume that it Will be unwilling &c
make any settlement with the New
York Central"

Industrials
Cotton

The cotton market was irregular yes
terday. but there seemed 90 be enough
trade buying on the declines to give It
a generally firm undertone, and the
close was firm at net advances Of iG 20
A. points. After selling at 1902 early
March eased of TO 1890 and closed a.
1894 4 feature IN the late trading
WAS buying by houses with Liverpool,
Japanese and Continental connections.
The trade was largely Of the opinion
that the advance had gone fer enough
70 bring out increased offerings OF spot
cotton i'm the South, as was Indicated
ov the larger sales reported m the
Southern markets late on the previous
Gay. 7. was also noted that there mac
been con. idcrablc Southern hedge sc-'-
;ng late on Thursday aud again yeatef-
dsv morning. These offerings tapereG
Of OF the sethacks. however, while re-
ports were received from the South
claiming that holders were refusing 10
follow any decline. no change was re-
ported in the export situation, AID the
attention OF the trade seemed 70 FOCUS
en- the attitude Of Southern holders.
Spot prices in the Southern markets
now average within few points Of thc
3O-csut level. which has been the price
most mentioned in connection with
holding. The tendency OF speculative
longs 10 even up their commitment
was doubtless prompted by uncertainty
as to the amount Of cotton there might
be Tor sale. Southern spot markets as
officially reported were unchanged 10
10 points higher, and there was n con-
tinucd good volume of business, par
ticularly IN the Southwest.

Mayor Glad He's Quitting

Urging the necessity for a solution.
The Mayor said that the plan which was
considered in 1916 was the best that
had been possible. Considering condi-
tons in the city, the state and the ma
ton, If that plan were open for agree
ment to-day / would hasten it If ! were
in authority-which, thank God, won't
be-"
considering your insight into this
affair and the knowledge you have
shown" said Commissioner Danforth
Ainsworth. 81 think il unfortunate that
you are not to have a voice in the set
clement"
81 thank you for the compliment, but
| can't agree with the sentiment said
the Mayor.
Asked how Federal control might af-
feet the situation, the Mayor said ne
did not know. lie added that railroads
other than the New York Central had
been unwilling 20 discuss any kind OF
agreement that would lead either 10 4
municipal terminal or joint terminals.
Roads Cold to Terminals
I'm reply to a question as 10 whether
any effort had been made TO interest
other roads. the Mayor said that In
1913 there was an attempt TO get other
roads 70 consider joint terminal south
OF Fifty-ninth Street. All Of them, al
ter conferences. refused to enter such
an agreement and stood pat on the
method OF car hoatage.
THE Joint operation discussion end
ed then" Mr.. Mitchell said, although
these roads were asked during nego-
tiations with tho New York Central
whether they wanted to reserve rights
in q settlement. Between 1913 and
1916 not one Of them indicated any
change OF mind"
Even then, the Mayor added, the com
mittee did not consider this final. but
left room in the 1916 plan for them to
come in. He said that Il all roads
were 10 have access to joint termina!
trackage the best place tor II would
be The marginal way, but ii the Ne"
York Central alone were 10 have eX-
elusive use OF the terminal railway
hc would locate il elsewhere. lie de-
clared that he was absolutely opposed
20 granting exclusive use OF inc mar
ginal way to any one road.

Wheat. Zero weather over .he West

ness regarding the safety OF the new
crop. which. at best. j. not regarded as
being any too vigorous 70 Withstand
ecyere temperature. The movement
was light, and exports for the week
were somewhat larger. Advice5 from
Argentina said that the new crop there
was moving and that quite liberal sales
had been made 10 France and Italy.
Corn. The market was nervous and
feyerish. and, after an early decline OF
Isc 20 &c. prices rallied and closed
Hrm. with net gains of &c to &c. Re
oorts from Chicago that the Board Of
Trade there had suspended further
operations in December and fixed a
settling price for outstanding contracts
at S1.2S emphasized the scarcity OF
casa corn ard the iirmness in the SPOT
situation. y was said that the coun-
try was anxious TO sell corn, but trans
uortation facilities were not notlceablV
improved. Ii the railroads do not move
corn within the next sixty days there
are liable 10 be serious delays, but
Government control OF the railroads
should facilitate the movement Of corn.
Another severe cold wave in the corn
belt il is thought will further interfere
with traffic conditions.

Exporters appeared on the decline, and
while definite figures were not obtain
