sanship," He Tells
Democrats

his disappointment over the Senate's
failure to pass his armed neutrality

manent peace. in an informal talk to-
day at White House luncheon TO the
Democratic National Committee.
The President declared he was mad"

up the armed neutrality bill, and Indi-
Gated that he hoped for better results
If he tried again TO bring ABOUT its
passage. The present. he said. is no
time for partisan or factional consid-
Grafton in international affairs. because
the need that America prove united
in efforts 20 safeguard its interests IS
imrerative. He decried bitterness in
public discussions Of the situation.
The underlying principles of democ-
racy were declared by Mr.. Wilson as
the only principles on which govern

must be behind governments.
The President referred 10 the con-
dition of Alsace- Lorraine as typical
of causes Of war which must be avoid
ed if permanent peace is TO be achieved.
Reiterating his hope that the United
States will play part in building up a
structure for the maintenance of per-
manent peace after the present war,
he declared that such a peace can be
founded only on just principles meet i.
ing the aspirations of the people Of
the world.

Lansing Tells President He
Can Put Guns on Mer-
chantmen
Wilson Still Holds
Back His Decision
Announcement Expected
After Cabinet Session
on Friday
rl,rnn, Tha rrihIns Rureaul

Washington, March 6.-No de-
cision on the arming of merchant
ships was reached to-day. The Cab
met meeting was omitted, and in
stead the President went to the State
and Navy departments to confer
with Secretaries Lansing and Dan
iels. The question was taken up,
but the President did not make up
his mind.
The President IS convinced the
country is behind him through the
attacks on the Senate filibusters.
Secretary Lansing is known to
have told him that the old 1919 law
does not prevent armlng against
submarines. High Administration
officials who are known to reflect the
Presidents view hold that an OBJ
scure law. passed a century ago,
would never be interpreted by the
Supreme Court as preventing nee
essary measure of defence in a great
rational emergency.
It is expected in nearly every
quarter that President Wilson Will
before the end of the week, probably
after the Cabinet meeting on FRI
day. announce that in spite Of the
failure of the Senate ne has decided
f. arm American ships for defence
noainst submarines.

In respect to arming merchant YES
sells for elf-defence, have no doubt
of the Presidents right TO do so II
he can get the money TO do it, but he
cannot draw on the Treasury for
such a purpose without the authority
Of a statute. | think that clearsnces

merchant vessels whose owners
choose to arm them for self-defence.
I think il proper, too, and that no
neutrality of any kind as il regards
the war between Germany and her
allies and France and her allies has
existed since the breaking off Of our
relations with Germany. We owe her
no duties and she owes none TO us.

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Aug. 20-Corn prices pursued an uneven course today, liqui 1ation which sent prices down early being followed by demand from shorts which moved the figures above Satur days closing prices. The close was strong, A to l B higher with December at S10S3i to S1.0S7s and May at S1.07 to s1.07B. Wheat finished at S2.05, an advance of cents. Oats advanced F to 1h In provisions final figures showed a nadvance of from to 15 cents.
 Coarse grains developed an oversold condition shortly after noon, and a late rally carried prices up. shorts being generally forced to cvoer regardless of the crop outlook. which continued eX- cellent. The cash market was about five cents lower early in the day but segained part of the decline later. Lo- cal sales aggregated 43,O00 bushels.
 In wheat only one transaction was recorded. This 6eal was at S2.05 for Septemb Der, which was cents above Saturdays closing figure.
 Oats followed the course of corn with m initial decline and a subsequent rally.
 As in tho corn pit, shorts hastening to cover caused the upturn.
 Hogs, which brought at top prices 2f9.65, new high price record led to advances in provisions. There was a general opinion that export transac- tions of large amount were imminent

STOCK LETTER By R. Allyn Lewis

Stocks were dull again today. The rumor of government taking over coal mines had a bearish effect because of anxiety it adds to a situation already covered with doubt. This was reflect ed in some liquidation of Reading and other rails were also weak. Steel and Copper stocks are holding their own in a dull market and one can do no better than stick to this group until the market recovers from its stag nation.
 An investment demand has risen for certain of the good rails. North western is wanted around 10S F. Great Northern pfd. around 105 F; Northern Pacific seems to be picked up around 1O2. The market is too narrow and there is too much pessim ism for people with sound judgment to take any radical position on the short side.
 If there is any upward movements in the general stock market at all it should be shared by the stocks of equipment companies. Cotton broke sixty points today. Sentiment is bearish and with pros poets of peace growing less. the cot i ton market resolves itself entirely 1 into a matter of home consumption. l With new cotton coming on the market it will be hard to bull to any
 great extent.
