Oscar A. Price who entered the gov

year OF the presidency Of Mr.. Wilson
as auditor for the Department OF the In
terror, was chief of the advertising
campaign for the sale of the second
issue of Liberty bonds. So success
fully did he handle that hard assign
ment he has been retained to do the
same thing for the war savings GER
t;ficates which have just been placed
en- the market. Mr.. Price was q bank
er and newspaper publisher at Ronce-
rerte before he came to Washington
several years ago. In relating his ex-
perience in exploiting the second
bonds, he declares that he found that
telling the truth, and nothing but the
truth, is the essential thing In adver-
Using. That is the lesson he learned
from his experience, he says. IAN adj

MOVEMENT
 VERY IRREGULAR
New York Cotton Was Less Ac- tive and Price Movement Very Irregular Opens Steady, Close Shows a Rally.

New York, Oct. 5.-The cotton mar ket was less active today and the price movement was very irregular. An early advance carried December contracts up to 2569c. but break fol- lowed to 25.20c, with the close at |25.37c. The general list closed steady, net 15 points lower to IA higher. The market opened steady at decline of 10 points on October. but generally to 13 points higher. There was a moderate Southern selling, but offer lngs from that source seemed to be smaller than expected, after yester- days late reports of an easy spct basis and there was nervousness over the low temperatures reported in the Northwest There was covering by yesterdays sellers for reaction and a fair demand from houses with Liver pool connections on which the market soon turned firmer, with January sell ing up to 25.50c and March to 25.57c, or about 39 to il points net higher before the end of the morning. De- mand then tapered off and the market turned easier under liquidation or realizing, local and Southern selling. The reaction was accompanied by talk .of increased hedge pressure and pre- dictions of heavier receipts next week, owing to the favorable weather re- ports. January broke to 25c and March to 2510c, with active months generally selling 6 to s points net lower and virtually 1c pound under Wednesdays high level. Closing prices showed rallies of 15 or IS points on covering.
 Cotton closed steady.

 The inventor, an Armenian from Boston, was overjoyed today that Congress had passed bill giving him his opportunity.
 Representative Robert Crosser of Cleveland telephoned Giargossian that the bill had passed.
 Tt is up to you now" said Crosser, "to make good your assertions"
 MT. Crosser, shall do more. The Garabed will do more things than I have ever claimed for it."
 Even l." he said "cannot say def- nitely how much the Garabed will do. It is not I, or the machine, that will accomplish results. It is natures fmitless source of energy. Energy, you must know, is everything. It is everywhere in nature Garabed will simply transform and harness a sup ply of this energy, making it do what man will want done.
 "Therefore, I say that nature will do more through Garabed than have ever claimed it would"
