COTTON PRICE FIXING
FORMALLY OPPOSED

Washington, July ia delegation
of cotton growers and others interest
ed in the cotton industry, including
Harry d. Wilson, state Commissioner
of agriculture of Louisiana; H. A.
organ, of the Louisiana; II. A. Nor
gan, of the Louisiana legislature, and
numerous others representing the cot
ton interests conferred here today
with war industries board, Federal
reserve board, and other government
agencies, with view to protecting
the cotton crop.
The delegation opposed any price
fixing, either minimum or maximum,
for cotton. They said that the gov
ernmcnt should not be called upon
to form any corporation to handle
the cotton situation and should not
take any step that would restrict or
interfere in any way with the cotton
industry. They asked the secretary
OF agriculture to put into operation
the Federal warehouse law under
which he can provide warehouses for
cotton and issue warehouse certii-
Gates for the cotton so stored. They
asked the Federal reserve board to
facilitate the transactions of southern
banks as to the cotton crop and asked
the shipping board to supply as many
bottoms as possible to facilitate the
transportation at sea The delegation
also conferred with Chairman Gore
of the Senate agriculture committee,
and Chairman Lever OF the House

GAMBLER TO THE FRONT

Atlanta, Ga, July 13-Thc strin-
gency of Atlantas water situation was
relieved yesterday when Mayor Asa
u. Gambler announced that he would
underwrite the purchase of the much
needed machinery for the water
works station. This involves an ex-
penditure of $250,000, and is but an
other illustration Of the splendid state
and civic spirit of the well known
Georgian
Mr.. Gambler is already widely known
for similar acts of large service to the
public. He bought one million dol
lars of state bonds not long ago, hav-
ing, before that, donated million to
Emory University, and he came to
the rescue of the planters in the cot
ton emergency of few years ago.
Mr.. Gamblers offer followed the
failure of the city to pass the much
needed bond measure because of the
failure of registered voters to vote.

WILL CHANGE LAWS GOV
ERNING BOND ELECTIONS

Atlanta, Ga, July l8-Following a
heated discussion of the Wright Tax
bill by the Ways and Means commit
tee of the house, Representative Swift,
of Muscogee, is preparing substitute
tax bill to introduce in the house.
Mr.. Wright has agreed to let his
bill stay on the table until the new
bill can come before the house.
Judge Spencer Atkinson has intro
duced bill to change the laws gov
erning bond elections in order that
bond issue may not fail for unavoid-
able causes as did the recent one in
Atlanta. The bill provides that bonds
shall be issued on the vote Of two
thirds of the actual voters instead of
on that of two thirds Of the register
ed voters.
Such bill will have to be ratified
by the vote Of the people a. it IL
wolves an amendment to the coa5titu-
ton.

ever, that the bill will pass with few
minor amendments. 1t was carried

A TOAST TO VICTORY

Here's to Wilson, son of God;
May he faithfully rule our precious
sod,
Till every sign of war is past,
And we have found peace, sweet
peace, at last.
Here's to our boys, God bless them
all;
May the Spirit be with them if they
fall; .........
May the hand of God reach out and
Each and every one from slacker's
grave.
Here's to the faithful Red Cross
nurse;
We believed in them from the very
first,
May the deeds they do and the words
they say
Help the khaki-clad boys to win the
day.
Here's to the people that love Old
Glory;
May they all live to hear the Won
rous story,
How the soldiers cheered at the front
that day
When they fought and won for our
u. S. A.
Here's to the Kaiser, we fear for him;
May he lose his royal diadem,
May he hear the clatter of millions Of
feet
AS our boys march through the Ber-
lin streetS-E. M. F.

IN TOWN LIMITS WEDNESDAY
Hunters Get Busy and Kill Two-The
Other Two Made Their Getaway

Early Wednesday morning Mrs.
Ben Morgan, living north and just
outside the town limits, saw four
deer, a fine buck and tree doe, run
ming past her home. She says it was
one of the finest sights she ever saw.
They cleared a four and a half foot
wire fence with an ease and grace
that was astonishing. They ran in the
direction of the John Emig place.
Prof Osborn first saw the bunch of
deer in the Emig ranch, and with his
hrother-in-law Bruce Smith, started
out to get one. When he caught up
with them they were in the Swalwell
ranch grazing in an alfalfa field. Be-
fore they got away Prof. Osborn got
one and his brother-in-law one, the
other two made off to the nearby
hills. The snow in the hills is driving
the game to the lower attitudes. That
a bunch of four should come right into
town is most unusual.

WILD THEORIES

The workinginan is entitled to fair
wages and fair play, but so, too, is
the employer entitled to fair treat
ment. In the eyes of the radical and
hoishevik element of labor, mans
status as a criminal is assured if he
i at the head of industry and has ac-
quired some capital. Such wild the
cries can not survive long, because
Common sense eventually will pre-
vail. Capital is necessary to indus
try There is no getting around that.
If man by hard work, thrift and
ability rises from the ranks of labor
to that of an employer, he deserves
credit and the approval of his fellow
men.
The bolshevik who attack him are
the ones who deserve short shrift and
no liberation. 1t is true, this is free
country, but it should not be so free
for the interruptions and foreign ele-
ment who would take our freedom

JUNKER JOS IRON CROSS

Secretay of the Navy Daniels is UNI
dertaking to put into effect in his de-
partment what amounts to industrial
CONSUMPTION. He has issued circu-
lar forbidding designations from the
navy department on pain of having
the stigma 'unpatriotic" placed
against the employees record. Spe-
cific instances have already occurred
where employees have resigned to ac-
cept better positions, and have re-
ceived letter from Mr.. Daniels say
ing that "a notation has been made
of your unpatrotic action for future
reference" OF course there is no au
thority in law for Mr.. Daniels action
and it is likely that the injured en-
ploye could hold him liable for dam
ages. The National Federation of
Federal Employees has taken the mat
ter up and filed a protest with Mr..
Daniels. They call his attention to the
TACT that although industrial conscrip-
ton was rejected by congress here is
on attempt to impose it by an admin
istrative officer.

CIVIC LEAGUE ORGANIZED

Leavenworth citizens to the num-
Der of twelve or fifteen met at the
Emergency hospital Wednesday eve
ming and took the first steps looking
toward the organization of d Civic
League. 1t was pointed out that it
was necessary for those who believe
in promoting the welfare of Leaven-
worth, first, to know who favors the
best interests of the town; second, it
they are willing to work for law en-
forcement by acting together in
electing a mayor and city council that
will stand for law enforcement and
the best interests of the town in every
respect.
The first matter considered, we are
told, was the putting before the vo-
ters a candidate for mayor at the city
election, Dec. Bird, who will, without
fear or favor, enforce all the laws.
Whether the immediate activity of
the league contemplates taking action
in other than the mayoralty contest
has not been fully decided

LEAVENWORTH BOY PRAISES
RED CROSS

In a letter from Merritt M. New
dali to his mother, Mrs. Bert Hagler,
he loudly praises the Y. M. c. A. and
the Red Cross. Merritt enrolled early
in October at the Students Training
Camp at the University of Washing
ton, and was selected with sixty-four
others for officers training. They
left November 7th for Fort Mccarthy,
Texas, and he says that at Ellensburg
and Spokane they were met at the
station by Red Cross Canteens and
given lunches, etc. At Aberdeen, S.
D., their next stop, they were delayed
seven hours and were royalty enter
tanned by the Red Cross, who met the
boys with cars, took them around the
country and gave them a good feed,
besides tobacco, candy, etc. He says
there is nothing like army life, and, in
his estimation, no organization like
the Red Cross.
