Short Selling Allowed

New York, December 9.AThe prohibi- tion against foreign and speculative short selling of contracts on the New York and New Orleans cotton exchanges which was placed in effect on November IS, as an emergency measure. due to the signing of the armistice, was removed today by order of the committee on cotton dis tribution for the war industries board
 The committees notice, posted on the cotton exchange here, reads:
 "The conditions that existed follow ing the signing of ythe armistice have been relieved and the emergency has passed. Our government has made trade agreements with neutral nations, the ex- port of cotton to all but enemy countries is now assured. Available tonnage in sufficient quantity to allow of export fully 50 per cent in excess of last sea- sons shipment, is more probable. The requirements of spinners and manufac- turers now can be bought and moved without wartime restrictions. Confi- dence is restored and under the circum- l stances the restrictions placed on the New York and New Orleans cotton ex- changes on November 1S are hereby re-
 moved.
 l The committee expressed to the offi- 1 cers and members of the two markets ] tits sincere appreciation of the spien- i did spirit and cooperation and helpful-
 ness exhibited by them in making effec-
 tive the committees erder."

MRS. RAYFORD WILL TOUR STATE FOR
 RED CROSS DRIVE
Mobile Woman to Talk on Red Cross Christmas Roll Call Campaign

Mrs. J. c. Rayford, one of the most prominent war workers of Mobile, will tour the state of Alabama in the inter- est of the Red Cross Christmas roll call
 campaign, and will tell the people what to do to make victory overlapping. She has recently returned from Washington, where she organized hospital league. She is connected with the board of na- tional Red Cross speakers and is rec ognized as one of the most able women speakers of the south.
 The fact that hostilities has ceased does not mean that the Red Cross work 1 is over There is still 2,000,000 men | overseas and it will take 2 long time to bring them back, and as long as regi- 1 ment remains abroad the Red Cross 1 must stand it. Thousands of dis l abled heroes will be sent home for re- mobilization; this means that the Red 1 Cross will have to provide nurses and l the Red Cross must still takec are of l the families of the men in the service. | There are hundreds of thousands of refugees in Francey Italy, Belgium and
 Russia that need the attention of the | Red Cross As always the Red Cross
 must stand fully equipped to handle sud-
 den emergencies of pestilence, disaster storms and calamity and to "carry on | its work the Red Cross needs universal
 memb ership.

NEW BALLOON GAS NON|NF[ [AMMABLE
"Argon" Will Eliminate Hazard of Fire and Ex- plOsi0n When Used to
 InfIate Balloons

Washington, December 9.-Discovery of an inert, noninflammable gas designed for use in balloons, dirigibles and other lighter-than-air craft was revealed by the navy department today in state ment explaining expenditures being made jointly with the army for its production. The department said the use of this new element, officially termed 'argon"a will eliminate the hazard of fire and explo- sion that always has accompanied bal loon operations where hydrogen has been used for inflations of gas.
 The gas from which ''argon' is ob- tained comes from wells at Petrolia, Tex, owned by the Lone Star Gas company, the statement said, and 10-inchl pipe line, to cost $1.O50,00o, is being laid for dis tance of 94 miles from the wells to plant at North Fort Worth, where the gas will be compressed into cylinders for shipment to the balloon fields.
 High proof gasoline is obtained in a ratio of about five gallons per 1000 cubic feet of gas it was said, and after the one per cent of 'argon' is removed, by agreement with the Lone Star com pany, the remainder of the gas is turned into the city mains of Fort Worth ana Dallas The department estimates the plant at North Fort Worth will cost 800 GOO and will be completed next April

HUNS AGAIN TOLD
 TOADDRESS NOTES 10 ALL ALLIES
U. S. Again Informs Ger many and Austria That No Further Communications
 Desired by This Country

Washington, December 9.-Notes were sent to Berlin and Vienna by the state department today advising the German and Austrian governments that the United States desires to re- ceive no further communications from them which should properly be ad- dressed to all the allied nations.
 note of similar purport previously had been dispatched to the German government as the result of requests that the armistice terms be modified.
 It was explained at the departmen nt that the notes sent today through the Swedish legation resulted particularly from 8 communication from the na- tional council of Lemberg, regarding boundary lines, and also by notes from Austria and Germany which bore no evidence of having been similarly communicated to the governments as- sociated with the United States
 The note from the national council of Lemberg indicated that the state of Lemherg desires to establish itself as an independent community and said the activities of the Ukranians and the Poles were regarded by the peo- pie of Lemberg with suspicion.

COLOGNE GAZETTE
 DESCRIBES ENTRY OF
 THE BRITISH TROOPS

Amsterdam, December 9-The Cologne Gazette in it's issue of Friday last de- scribes the entry of the British into Col ogne.
 A cavalry regiment in marching equip ments with ma chine guns approached along the Duernerstrasse, while along the streets of the old ramparts marched other troops, which assembled in the Aachen- erthor.
 .The public remained calm and re- served with some exceptions, mainly youths" the Gazette asserts. "lnvol- untarily, the mind recalled the picture presented few days earlier by our re- turning troops and the comparisons drawn were truly not unfavorable to our field grays.
 Several attachments of cavalry moved along the Luxemburgstrasse, the officers with drawn swords, the men in steel helmets. some with lances with miniature red and white flags. They halted at the Luxemburger ramparts, where they placed numerous baggage wagons and armored motor cars. Here, too, it was mainly youths who gathered. Several British of- fIcers went tp the town hall to discuss with the burgomaster the next measures to be taken"

PAPERS CHARGED WITH DECEPTION
 THROUGHOUT WAR
Soldiers Leave Statement With Publishers, Which They Were Forced to Pubs
 fish, Charging Murder

Munich, Sunday December s.--CBy the Associated Press.)--The mob of armed soldiers which Friday night forced the resignation. at the pistols point, of Herr Auer, minister of the interior in the Bavarian cabinet, and then occupied various newspaper of- fees, gave as the reason for the lat ter action that the newspapers had been deceiving the people throughout the war. A statement which they left xpr publication in the Bavarian Cour- fer, the organ of former Chancellor Won Hert1ing, was printed in that jour nal when it managed to get out an edition at noon after the nocturnal interruption of it's working force. The statement said that the soldiers and workmen occupied the offices of the newspapers which had lied and deceived the people for 51 months and bore the fearful responsibility of mur- der" The newspapers would hence forth appear under the soldiers and workmen's direction, added the state ment, which was signed by the 'revo- lutionary internationalists of Ba- varia."
 The Courier explained that it prin.- ed his statement Ito indicate what had happened"
 After forcing the resignatio of Herr Auer, the mob went to Premier Eisner' s residence to tell him the, news Eis- ner, however, asked them why they had not informed him of their inten- tion.
 T should probably have advised against it." the premier said. Your action was certainly well meant and undertaken out of regard for me, but it was not good. If again you have complaints about something wrong in the government, come to me. Now go quietly to your homes"

RADICAL MEASURES
 ARE NOT EXPECTED
 IN BERLIN SOON
Most Urgent Problem Now Is Maintenance of Nation S Economic System, Opin-
 ion of Bernstein

Berlin. Sunday, December S.-(By :he Associated Press 1.-The commits sion appointed, by the present govepn- ment to work out plan for economic specialization has held it's initial ses- sion. but beyond organizing, it has adorted no specific programme of pro cedure. The Berlin bourse and bank ing circles, so far as the correspondent has been able to ascertain, do not eN- pect the immediate enactment of radl- cal measures. The impression prevails that the Ebert-Haase government Is convinced that the present politicai and economic situation is inauspiciousS 1t seems to have been confirmed by recent utterances of the leaders or hoth wings of the social democracy.
 Eduard Bernstein, who represents the revolutionary government in the national ministry of finance, and who, with Carl Kautsky, under-secretary oI foreign affairs in the soldiers anu ,Serkmens government shares the ln- tellectua1 leadership of the independ- ent socialists, in speech last nlght' said the urgent problem at present was maintenance of the nations eco- homie system.
 sSocialization cannot come over- night" said Herr Bernstein. "1t can only be carried out gradually, but II is bound to come for the people now are sovereign. Our important weapon is suffrage reform, which is now a fact. It will completely reconstruct society and eventually lead to state control of important industries"
 OPPOSES CONFISCATlON
 Herr Bernstein said he was opposed to fconfiscation or appropriation.
 '.Our present situation, is most crit ical more so than most Of us realize" he added. We are lack ing in raw products, foodstuffs and other commodities, to procure whlch we shall require immense amounts or money. We cannot seize the wealth cf the rich people, for then the whole system of production would become paralyzed Our state railways which in by-gone years netted surplus ot 5000, coo, ,000 marks now show defi- cit of 900, 100000. Our credit abroad banks refusing us accommodations be- cause of the instability of our economic conditions"
 Paul Hirseh, Pussian minister of the interior and one of the leaders of thu majority socialists. in the course Of a1 address declared that the date fixed foi the national assembly was too remote ard that immediate convocation of thf assembly was of urgent necessity foI the purpose of giving the new state or eanzation needed stability.
 DICTATORSHIP UNDESIRABLE
 Herr Hirsch asserted that a dictator ship was undesirable as it would be in. compatible with the principles both o socialism and of democracy. He pre- dicted that the Rhenish. industrial classes would not hesitate to call on the entente to restore order if the present condition of suspense was permitted tr continue He then discussed the finan

 MADE HIM SWEAR
 In the discussion by the committee of the neutral papers named in Feuhr's list, Senator Nelson remarked:
 The Washington Post was bad up to the time of the death of John R. Me- Lean. I used to read it every morning and swear For couple of years we had only one fair newspaper in Wash ngton and that was the Star.'
 Activities in this country of Bolo Pasha, executed recently in France for high treason, were touched upon briefly by MT. Bieaski who said Bolo came here ostensibly to buy print paper, but in reality to obtain money for the purchase of a, newspaper in France Bolo, Biel- aski said, was brought to this country by a representative of Hearst and was introduced to Hearst.
 There is one fact we have about Bolo Pasha which has never been published before" said Mir Bielaski. That is that Pasha was in touch with the German embassy here shortly after war was de- clared by Germany in 1914. In note book of Dr. Albert, which we have in our possession, there appears this en- try. Prepare telegram 10 faSha. lhat. we believe, shows that the embassy knew intimately of Pasha and probably knew of his activities.
 OTHER TESTIMONY Other testimony given today by MT. Bielaski dealt with the activities of lab or's national peace council, Capt Franz Won Rintelin, sent to this country to stop shipments of munitions to the all lies, and the Hans Lebeau relief bureau, ostensibly philantrophic organization, but in reality foAned. MT. Bielash said to keep Germans and Austrians from working in munition factories.
 Samuel Untemeyer of New York, whose name MT. Bielask mentioned in con- nection with efforts of German agents to purchase a newspaper in New York, today asked Senator Overman that he be permitted to testify. The request was granted. but no date for his appearance | has been set.
