DEMANDS PASSAGE
OF WAR INSURANCE
SECRETARY MADOO ASKS CON.
GRESS FOR INIMEDIATE
ACTION.


Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo
this week demanded that congress
pass the war allowance indemnity
and insurance bill as an emergency
war measure.
The bill provides against want and
misery among the dependents OF
Americas fighting men. insures their
welfare If they survive and protects
their loved ones il they do not. Max
ing this bill a law, McAdoo said. in a
formal statement. is vital to the quick
development of Americas full fight
ing strength at the front and at home.
What Bill Provides.
Its general provisions are:
Separate allowance for wives and
children of enlisted men of from
$47.60 up.
Life insurance up to $4,000 al
about SO year $1,000 worth. for
every fighting man.
The right to transform this insur-
ance into a more quickly maturing
form at the same rate after the war.
Five thousand dollars insurance
for the widow OF fighting man who
is killed whether he has applied for it
or not. 6s
Support Of wounded man and his
dependents by the government in
bringing him back to health and eff
cheney in special training schools.
Adequate cash provision for all to-
tally or partially disabled fighters
and their, dependents.
1--WE have drawn the sword to vim
dicate Americas violated rights and
we cannot afford to permit our SOL
diers to be stabbed in the back by
uncertainty as to what is being done
for their loved ones at home.' Secre-
tary McAdoo declared.
While deprecating the large num-
ber of drafted mems claims for ex-
McAdoo blames them on
congress- failure to pass the protec-
ton law and predicted that when the
law is passed claims for exemption
on that score will cease"
~ Morale Is Essential.
The secretary pointed out that the
morale Of our army Is as essential as
guns and ammunition; that the NOR
ale of the civil population supporting
the fighters is of equal Importance
and that we cannot have this essen
tial morale unless the nation COM
forts the men in the ranks with the
knowledge that everything possible
will be done for them and their fam
lilies.
"Let 1t not be said that noble
America was ignoble in the treatment
of her soldiers and sailors and callous
to the fate Of their dependents in this
|greatest war Of all time." Secretary
McAdoo said.
"The pending war insurance bill
gives compensation, not pensions; 1t
fixes amounts definitely in advance
instead of holding out the mere
chance Of gratuities after the conclu-
sion Of peace. 1t saves the depend
ents from want and gives them the
necessaries of life while their men
are at the front. 1t deals with its
heroes literally for the sufferings
that result from their disablement on
the field Of battle, and. il they die. 1t
makes just provision for the loved
ones who survive them. 1t fosters
the helpless and dependent, the
manned and disabled, and recognized
the immensity Of the nations debt to
the valor and patriotism Of her heroic
sons"

BEARS PARTIALLY
ROUTED BY BULLS
Prices Turn Upward; Improv-
ed Money Market Helps
Lift All Prices.

NEW YORK, Sept. ia decided
turn for the better came today in the
stock market. The selling movement
which has made such headway of late
was checked effectively and there was
a general marking up of values which
reached substantial proportions be-
fore the end of the day. A noticeable
change was the tendency to follow up
the market on the rise. The inquiry
broadened as quotations were ad-
vanced, and the strength was main
tained thruout the session.
Improved conditions in the money
market were spoken Of most frequent
ly as a direct source OF strength.
Speculation has been restrained by
the firmnoSs of the money market
and the doubtful outlook for obtain
ing accommodations. This situation
was improved by the action taken by
New York bankers to stabilize the
money market. Time money was 5
and y per cent and call funds were
loaned as low as 21s per cent.
Indications that announcements rel
garding steel and copper prices would
soon be made at Washington helped
the market on it's upward course. The
prolonged uncertainty in this respect
has constituted one of the main ad-
verse influences and the tone of Wash
ington advices today was so confident
Us to lead to buying in expectation of
an early settlement. Another en-
couraging feature was the indication
of steady improvement in the Rus
H6lan situation.
y The bond market was irregular.

II certainly does your old heart
good TO read the football rules this
year. a peculiar sensation accom-
panies the reading that has been de-
MED you ever since the sport car
pentcrs began renovating and max
ing over the game in 1906. You read
on section after section. rule after
rule without finding the slightest
change. Even the penalties have cs-
capped almost entirely. A man who
knew the game in 1915 is sure TO
recognize it this fall.
All OF this is a pretty good sgn OF
course. that those who direct the des-
TIMES of the great American college
sport are very well satisfied with the
way things have been running. So
is nearly everybody else, for that mat
ter For two years now changes have
been OF a minor nature and It seems
safe to assume football has found bot
tom. From now on coaches and play
ers Will busy themselves with mat
ters OF strategy and the manifold
problems of offense and defense.
Still Tinkcring With Pass.

the code this year affects the forward

someone cannot suggest and put over
an innovation in the old (. y. This

Technically the rule deals with the
''use of the hands and arms after the
ball has been put in play but prac-
tically it opens the way to much
more libe raj use Of the pass than has
ever been deemed advisable before.
The rule, which is the same as the
rule obtaining last season, reads; mo

the ball in play shall. after the pass
has been made, in any manner inter-
fero with an opponent who has cross

Last year the penalty for the viola

ball was put In play. This year the
penalty is loss of the ball at the spot
of the foul and in the event of two
fouls on the same play the ball goes

COTTON
New York Cation

NEW YORK. Sept l9.-There was a rapid
and excited advance in the cotton market
today, with December contracts selling at
2l .43c, or more than $4 per bale above last
nights closing figures and very nearly &c
per pound above the low level OF last week.
That delivery closed at 2l.23c with the gen
eral list closing very steady at net advance
Of 81 TO 81 points.
The market opened firm at an advance Of
l2 to SO points with the buying movement
becoming more active as the call progressed,
and with the late months showing the maxi
mum gains. There was enough realizing
TO cause some ireguarit wright after the
call, but more optimistic talk of peace pro
spects and bullish overnight spot adyices, ap.
peared to stimulate covering, with demand
becoming still more active after the pubhca
tion of the weekly weather bureau report

back, however and as soon as realizing sub
sided, the market developed renewed strength,
closing within 10 to 20 points OF the best.

win Make Players Careful.
The penalty is 50 severe it Is going
TO make defensive players particularly
careful to avoid even the appearance
of evil, especially on long passes where
the enforcement OF the penalty would
mean the gain OF thirty, forty or more
yards TO the opponents. ana the re
suit will he more succcsstul In IONS
passes And the more times the long
passes are completed the more times
they are going TO be tried. II Is
great temptation TO the offense ana
quite likely temptation which Will

Makes Play More Popular.
The reason for the rule is not alto
gether apparent unless II be To make
the pass n more popular play with the
| coaches II is true that In the east
the pass IL not used 10 nearly the same
extent It is In this section. The pass
is the most popular play in the game
FOR the spectators and Il Is probable
| that the rules committee (the mep-
bers of which come almost entirety
| from the Cast) wanted to- give the
! spectators more Of what they like.
! Another change regarded as impor-
| tant Is the one which prevents an IN
coming substitute from communica-
ting with u player from his own side
until after play has been made. lf
the substitute replaces the quarter
back, however, he is allowed To call
the signals Immediately.
This Is a somewhat desirable RUE.
] T. ,I,,t L.. .t,sev 10 friction
In the first place some coaches will
try to evade 1t by secret signals which
the incoming player will flash to his
captain or quarter hack. Such signals
NAV be strongly suspected, but as II Is
impossible to prove the case an off
cial would be entirely unwarranted in
inflicting penalty; on the other
hand suspicion is equivalent to proof
with the other team and 1t Will want
the opponents set back fifteen yards.
New Rule of Little Moment.
After one play has been called the
substitute can tell everything his coach
sent him in TO tell without penalty
and so after all nothing very much has
been accomplished. II is not often
kthat sending a substitute in with in
structions influences the play one way
or another Immediately. AS general
rule the instructions are to open up
or "try n drop" or run the ends" In
some cases. of course, the instruction
is to use a particular play because the
coach thinks the time is ripe for It's
success But in only n few instances
does II make much difference whether
the particular play Is pulled immedi-
ately or a moment or two later. II
the time is critical the quarter back
will likely waste a down.
