America, Japan and China

In Picking dispatch printed in The Republican yesterday morning, complaint appears from various Chinese papers of the recognition by the United States of Japans special interest in China The recognition is understanding reached between state depart ment and the Japanese government through it's late mission. It is a treaty and future adminstra- ton would be bound by it.
 It is a recognition of principle and not fact and such is above the which have been directed against both this country and in China The that be said of it by an American is that it of "back tracking" Probably the Japa would approached us for recognition of its special position unfortunate and so far as been shown. the purposeless, Sympathetic and en- couraging sent to China some months ago by Mir. Lansing in which Japan ignored. Very nat uraly Japan inquired where we stood and whether that indicated interference with Japanese plans in China.
 The Chinese may declare with some show of righteousness that for two countries to agree on certain special interests third country without the of the latter is open affront to the third party. But may be stated that such an af- front if it is affront is times necessary inevitable in the intercourse nations The United States has sometimes found necessary to give such affront has adopted the principle which 1t has just recognized.
 In explanation of the recognition, MT Lansing did not perhaps give the happiest the special relations Japan and China when he said territorial propinquty creates special relations between coun- tries and consequently the United States recognizes that Japan has special interests in China" Terri torial propinquity" alone is not basis for special interests We have no interests in Canada, that would warrant our interference with it's affairs.

Our Aid of Russia

Our government has not lost faith in Russia. Russia may be hopeless ally but there will be future Russia and the money loanng it will is sending supplies to that stricken country which never needed them more sorey. It would be extremely short tsighted policy for to pursue withhold supplies and treat Russia enemy at this time. Should do that, act would be the last contribution to the utter breakdown of that country.
 The United States is the only connecting link between Russia and the Entente Allies None of them are able or in a position to aid that country financially or otherwise. Their means kausted and they dependent upon us. If now we should withhold support from Russia it would facilitate separate peace it would make possible the diversion of the Teutonc legions the Eastern front to the Western, the Italian and the Mesopo- tamian fronts
 After all the aid giving Russia may be thrown away upon that country ally For war which is badly needed, it may be wasted. But We have gamblers chance and we must take it. We know pretty well what will happen we do not and we do know what good may result if we take the chance
 Russia ally depends entirely upon this country. Sometimes though, perhaps infrequently it has paid to throw good money after bad for lorn hope is better than at all and has not always failed.

Cotton

Cotton at so cents a pound. The only cotton in the world bringing that price is Salt River valley cotton the Pima variety which bred here and so far raised nowhere else Of it will spread in time through all the limited within which long staple cotton be grown
 is certain that valley cotton will go higher this year A year ago this time believe it was brngine53 and month later sold at 6S cents. IL went still higher before the close of the
 To what extent the price of Egyptian cotton, under which general popularly included both varieties long staple raised in this valley, has been affected by the war do not know. But do know that it has been much more slightly at- fected than short staple of which strictly good mid ding has risen from 1941 cents year to 27.55 cents now Comparing the prices of the several var cites short staple year with the prices now. we find from the following figures of last Saturday that the lower grades have approximately made the greater advance as cotton of those grades are for strictly purposes or in uses directly related to the war:
Arizona republican., 1917-11-14

The increase in the price of Arizona cotton began before the war, with the better understanding of it by spInners and manufacturers. The price advanced under pressure of the demand by thread manufactur CTS and makers of automobile tires whose manufac- lures were swelling tremendously in volume inde pendenty of the war, and which will continue to in crease after the is Cotton of this grade is also used extensively in making aeropane wings. The demand for for that purpose may be expected to decline after the But that decline and the end of other war will be partially offset by the increased of high grade long staple cotton in of peace.
 We would not leave inference that long staple prices will remain the present figures after the A part of the present price is price. Short cotton will certainly fall after the war, and prices of short staple will naturally affect the prices of the higher grades. There is price relation between all varieties of cotton.
 Yet the certainty, not the mere prospect of the future of valley cotton such to warrant the greatly increased that will be planted year. Long staple cotton half the prices would be money making crop.
