Copenhagen. Oct 27.--Captain Won

This element. the captain writes. must

Captain Won Sal&uann takes his text
from the recent speech in London of

against German intrigue for The pur-

and the United States.

STEEL. MEN PLEDGE
LOYALTY TO GOVERNMENT
Teaton Fee Powerful and Desperate,
Gary Says-l'rOphesies Long War.

Cincinnati. Oct 27-"To win the war
our government must have steel and
more steel There is no room for dis
loyalty in America. | am sure all the
members Of the American Iron and
Steel Institute are .wholeheartedly loyal
and | want those who are willing now
for the service of their country to ra se
from theR seats"
Unanimously, the 500 delegates at
tending the convention Of the Ameri-
can Iron and Steel Institute jumped to
their feet when Judge Ebert VI. Gary,
president of the institute made his re.
guest at the opening session here.
The discussions plan for the upbuild-
ing of stricken Europe when the war
Is over.
1T is clear we must prepare for a
long continuance of hostilities. declared
Judge Gary. THE foe is strong and
desperate. and must be overcome by
physical strength and endurance.
"Our country and all its allies are in
reed of every pound of steel which cas-
be produced No excuse for neglect,
delay or interruption can be accepted
BY the government. 1t is up to us to
prove our continued loyalty to the gov.
ernment."
Judge Gary said:
when certain newspapers in New
York. inspired by money that was from
various sources. characterizing leading
business men as derelicts. when they
criticised the actions Of the patriotic
financiers. it is TO he wondered that
some people get a false impression.
III Champ Clark We're to go to the
offices and homes Of the big bankers
in New York. If he saw what thcy and
their wives and sons and daughters are
doing FOR the support Of their govern
ment in this time of war. his opinion
would be different. But believe Champ
Clark Is real patriot"

Because OF the high prices for the

that there Is a shortage OF labor In

labor laws and the army draft. and as
the war progresses still further hard.
ships In this respect are likely.
A depressing feature of market to-
day wes the monthly report OF the New
York Journal Of Commerce, returns In
dicating only a small percentage of the
crop picked compared with this time
one year ago In the following states.
Mississippi 6S w 81. per cent.
Alabama " VS. "a per cent.
Tennessee 45 W. 50 per cent
Indicating that ginnings IN the future
will be heavier than after this time one
year ago.
The very light ginnlngs to date are
attributed to lateness OF the ,crop In
the northern half of the belt and To the
scarcity of labor for picking. The short
age OF field labor is reported due To n
migration of negro farm hands. the vol
unteering and selection OF men for mill
iary duty. cantonmcnt work and heavy
demands for labor in the sawmills, cot.
ton factories and kindred industries
throughout the south.
Under the circumstances II Is probable
that there is much TO the claim that the
light ginnings so far are mainly due to
the lateness OF the crop and scarcity Of
pickers, and il is possible that the crop
may be larger than the light ginnings
TO date would indicate. and il ginnings
in the future show much Of an increase.
they are likely to have depressing
influence on values.
Conservative estimates are that the
crop is about as large as IL was last. year
and as 1,2l9.000 bales less than last
year have been brought into sight so
far. il follows that receipts are due TO
increase from now on.
During the past week the stocks at
80 interior towns increased 100000 bales
