RESTRICTIONS HAVE BEEN DONE
Away with Oh Cotton Shipments In
ccpt to Enemy Countries.

Washington, Nov. 2l.-All restric-
tions on the shipment of cotton from
the United States, except to enemy
countries ana to tho northern Euro
pean neutrals, have been removed,
| Senator Eloke Smith, Of Georgia, said
to-day after Il conference with OIL
cials OF the war trade board. Cot
ton is expected to flow more freely to
countries contiguous to Germany
when that nation has complied with
all the terms Of the armisticc. the
Senator said.
Cotton in increased quantities is
already moving into the Allied coun-
tries. Because OF the fact that IN
dia's cotton crop this year was suni-
cient only for that country's needs,
Senator Smith said, Japan has been
very anxious to get cotton from the
united States. Japan's needs are es-
timnted at 100000 bales.
Stocks of cotton in the South now
are said to exceed 100000 bales,
and it was because Of this fact that
southern Senators and Representa-
tiVes at recent conference decided
to ask the war trade board and other
government agencies to modify the
restrictions on exports. The matter
also was brought to the attention of
the Presidnet.
Senators say that countries desir-
ing to import American cotton have
have indicated a readiness to supply
the tonnage necessary for its move
ment overseas, and now that the
restrictions as to shipment to most
countries have been removed they en-
pect the movement to increase very
rapidly.

question was voted on at the General

must come before the Annual Con-
terences, and whdn two-thirds Of

1t happened after the news that the
allied forces were chasing the army
of the crown prince. There was great
rejoicing on the steps of the custom.

Ing the hand Of everybody else. The
man who had never before been known
TO lose his dignity was pulling the hair
OF. the office boy and whooping it up
generally.
All Of which was at first rather In.
comprehensive to the colored porter
OF the building. Tie didn't know Just
what 1t was all about, but it looked
good to him, nevertheless. Finally, he
seemed to "get" 1t. With the agility
Of cat he climbed one Of the ped

spread eagle over it. Hanging pre-
cariously on the ledge, the negro pull

Then with n vim and vigor that had

actions he began polishing away ut tho

talked:

And the other ce1cbrants stopped to

effective January 1St next.
The new order will raise about
100000 additional revenue, half
or which amount the American Rail-
way Express Company, before it was
taken over entirely by the govern
ment, had planned to eXpend in an
increase OF wages. The wage ques-
tion is now before the railroad S

business to motor trucks and back
to the freight service, where it really

Eated that another result will be the
transferring OF the handling of some

The reason for making the rate in
crease greater in the Eastern terri
tory. ii is stated, was because OF the
shorter hauls, city delivery and ter

absolutely necessary to the service.

last to be mustered out. 1t Is sug-
sested also that complications may
come about that will tend to delay
general rehabilitation somewhat.
At any rate, there will be no hurried,

makes it clear what steps will be ta-
ken, and these necessarily, under the
best Of conditions. will require time.
