To Continue Lending
Money on Cotton

All rumors to the effect that the
federal reserve bank or Atlata VIII
not continue to lend money on cot
ton were set at rest Friday by NJ. b.
Wellborn, chairman for the tederal
reserve board for the Atlanta dis
trict, who asserted that cotton is, as
it always has been, acceptable col
lateral.
The federal reserve bank, Mr..
Weilborn asserted, proposes to con-
tinue its practice of assisting MEM
Der banks in carrying cotton so that
the producer can obtain fair price.
THE willingness of the federal
reserve bank of Atlanta to lend mon
ey on cotton should not be question
ell" he said. I'VE are lending on
cotton every day. We are in the
heart of the cotton section and this
is our big financial product
THE federal reserve board in
Washington has issued no instruc-
tions along this line, lea wing the mat
ter to us and our past policy has
not changed in any particular. You
may rest assured that, contrary TO
all reports, there will be % coercive
measures"
MIR. Wellborn has recently receiv-
ed answers to inquiries sent all over
this district showing a general and
almost unanimous willingness to ac-
cept cotton as collateral.
The Atlanta district covers Geor-
gia, Florida, Alabama, the major
portion of Tennessee, southern Mis-
sissippi and southern Louisiana.
No word has been received by him
as to the attitude of the Dallas, Tex,
reserve bank, which covers practi-
cally all the rest of the cotton-pro-
ducing territory. He pointed out
however, that there is no reason to
believe that the attitude of that dis
trict is different from that of At
lanta.
Recently Mr.. wellborn sent a let
ter of inquiry to correspondents,
leading business men and bankers of
the district TO ascertain the effect of
the armistice on conditions gcner-
ally.
The prevalent belief was that the
price of cotton would rise when the
arnistice was signed. On the con-
trary, however, there was a decided
slump and rumOrS, without founda-
ton in fact, became current to the
effect that there would be an embar-
go on cotton credit.
1t is expected now, however. that
Mr.. Wellborn's positive and en-
the case and that every effort will be
realize a fair price on their product,
will have a decidedly good effect on
the market.
II is squarely up to the owner OF
cotton as to whether he wants to
hold il or not, Mr.. Wellborn pointed
out. There will be no coercive meas
ures to make him sell, the staple be-
ing just as good as collateral now as
II ever was.

DENY WILS.lN PLANS
TO SETTLE DISPUTES

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Deter-
mination of the or6er i'm which great
questions will be handled at the
peace table is now the object of dis.
cussion preliminary to the confer
ence.
1t is purposed to clear up first
those questions which will enable all
belligerents and neutrals to resume
as quickly as possible normal trade
conditions. StroIg pressure from
neutrals urging the lifting O. the al
lied blockade is tigIring in the pres
ent inter-allied exchanges.
1t was held possible today that the
great treaty might be divided into
two or more sect ons, the first to
cover matters of immediate impor
longer and more deliberate ..ction to
follow. Under this plan the treaty
may be signed in sections as COM
pletCd.
This. it was held likely here. would
tend TO permit Germany to set forth
with ships now blocked in her ports.
and go after need ed supplies.
In this connection. 1T was pointed
out, that the sooner Germany re-
sumes her trade. the quicker she
will have money available for paying
off the tremendous indemnitieS she
must give for the destruction she
wrought in occupied territories.
Owing to the situation, IL was held
likely that the league of nations amt
it's coraIlory, freedom of the seas,
would be among the first questions
to be disposed OF. Strength is given
to this belief by the fact that the
president will attend the opening
conferences and he is particularly in
terested in these points.
Public reports that President Will
son was going to Europe to settle
differences which have arisen among
the allies on peace matters, were
partment. The story was looked upon
as detrimental propa ganda. and the
department said positively there was
no foundation Of truth in the report
A delegation of RUmanian Jews
introduced by Louis Marshall, New
York lawyer. asked Secretary of
State Lansing today to safeguard
Jewish interests in Rumania. The
question probably will arise at the
peace conference.
The new Russian government Is
preparing an outline of it's desires at
the peace table and is planning to
send representatives. The Russian
situation now offers probably the
most vexing problem in connect on
with the forthcoming conference.
However, leaders and armies of the
new government are making head
way in Russia. The Boishevik re-
CINE has been overthrown in Ukraine,
opening up that channel TO allied
aid Reports indicate that the whole
BolsheVik movement in Russia is
rapidly waning in power before the
confidence being established by the
new government.

JAPAN EXPECTSHE
SHARE Of SPOILS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-Japan
hopes for a big place in the sun as
a result of the world peace confer
ence, according to diplomats today.
The mikado, it is believed. pans
not only to seek retention of Kiao-
chau and other German island pos
sessions in the Pacific now under the
Japanese flag, but also expects world
recognition of special trade and eco
nomic privileges in China and ST.
IBERIA.
According to diplomatic informa-
ton here, the Japanese delegates 20
the peace conference will carry with
them seven basic peace clauses as
IoIIowS:
1, UnQuestioned concurrence with
their lawful ally, Great Britain, i'll
the question OF the freedom OF the
seas ana other universal matters al
fecting the future of the British
Japanese alliance.
2. Sympathy with the United
States and the entente IN the plah
TO protect the new nations arising
out of the war and to safeguard the
world against further wars.
8. Recognition OF Japanese neces-
sity of preserving order in Siberia
to protect the integrity Of their do
mains and her population.
4. Recognition of legitimate IL
nancial. commercial and Industrial
sphere of influence in China.
5. Permanent occupation of Ktao-
chau under terms that may be sat
isfactorily arranged between Japan
6. japanese protectorates over
Marshall and Carolina islands and
other former German possessions in
the Pacific seized by Japan when
she entered the war.
z. ReciprocatOry rights for Japan
ese citizens throughout the world
1t was indicated, however, that
the terms are more or less general
and that the japanese representa-
tives will go to Versailles more TO
cooperate with their associates IN
the war than to seek reward or
favors.
Far eastern diplomats here empha-
size the fact that Japan is fully in
harmony with the United States and
the entente regarding the general
world movement to lend assistance
to weaker nations and to build up
the uadeveloped sections along new
and constructive lines.
The Japanese are pointing to the
recent strides toward fuller democ-
racy in their own government AMI
notably to the elevation of the pop-
ular leader. Hara, to the premiership.
rs evidence of the fitness of the
Japanese to a natural and unhin-
dared expansion in other lands, as
sought under clause Z. above.

RUSSIAN RECOGNITION
WANTED BY LVOFF

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-tieuOg-
milton OF Russia at the word peace
conference at Versailles was urged
by Prince George Lvoff, first prime
minister of Russia, after the over
throw of the cZar, in statement
today TO the American people. Prince
Lvoff expresses his conviction that
any program of reconstruction which
does not provide for the complete
destruction of Bolshevism in Russia
will leave the world the germ of an
other great war.
THE termination of the war has
raised the question of the peace con-
ference" said Prince Lvoff. Il
dictates to the allies the necessity
of organizing in Versailles the de-
ense of Russian interests. This
work can be done by Russians only.
The country as a whole is unable
At present to send TO the conference
it's plenipotentiary representatives
But when our friend is i'll we act for
him.
tTo designate the persons and con-
slider the form of their part at the
conference is a matter of friendly
interest to the allies"
Of the present Bolshevik rulers
OF Russia Prince Lvof said:
AT the moment OF greatest weari-
ness of the war they promised
peace, bread and liberty to the peo-
"Instead of peace. they gave new
er-ceasing war: instead OF bread,
hunger without precedent in Russia:
instead OF liberty, a bloody tyranny
such as we never knew in the worst
years of the reign of the ears.
THE BolsheVik1 are fndulging in
a perpetual revolution. Their aim
is universal social eruption. They
are Interested in Russia chiefly as
a hearth where they may keep up
by all means the worlds conflagra-
ton. From the outside 1t would seem
that the Bolshevisi display strong
power. but this impression is not
correct. Almost all the branches of
their administration are in q state
OF chaos, and they are unable to
enforce. even by the most cruel and
sanguinary measures, the submission
OF the border lands and the eXecu-
tom Of thei~ doo~eCS."
