same statement refers in glowing
terms to the reckless attacking spir-
it" OF the pilots of the German chas-
ing planes-a phrase which provoked
much merriment among British,
French and American airmen, who of
late have found that even one Of the
reconnaissance machines can rely on
putting to fight any German ma
chine which is not accompanied by
three or four of its own kind
"If Germany is really pleased with
her air record for the past few
months" remarked a British squad
ron leader to the correspondent
there is no reason for us to com
plain. We ask nothing better than
that Germany should go on having
the same kind of success in future
months"
He took as an example the report
for May, which lay open on his desk
"Ihis report he explained, deal;
with the British air fighting alone

work of the French, Italians and Am
ericans. During the month the Brit

GEORGIA AND FLORIDA COT
TON GROWERS HELD ANNUAL
MEETING IN JACKSONVILLE

Jacksonville, Aug. Georgia and
Florida growers, who met In the
Chamber of Commerce auditorium
yesterday to discuss the cotton situ-
alton, agreed that better results could
be obtained this year II the gins were
not started until Oct. l, instead Of
Sept. i as usual The Florida Geor-
gia Ginners' Association discussed Sea
Island cotton mainly. Some Of last
years crop is still on hand and it is
expected that 1t will be out of the
lway by Oct. 1 The farmers will al
so be advised not to sell more than
l20 per cent of the new crop In any
one month
The meeting yesterday was the an
lnual gathering of the association. The
following officers were elected for the
ensuing year:
President-R. H. Godfrey, of Ala,
chua county.
Vice President-R. H. Henderson
of Folkston, Ca
Secretary-treasurer-R. A. McNeill
, o. Live Oak.
Delegates were present from botf
Florida and Georgia. The meeting
was called to order at 10 o'clock yes
terday morning and continued ovel
during the entire afternoon
Resolutions Adopted
The importation Of Egyptian cottor
was discussed. 1t was pointed ou
that an order had been made forbid
ding the importation of over SO,00t
bales of Egyptian cotton, that bales o
cotton contained 500 pounds ant
that the order had been construed t
mean that the bales of Egyptian cot
ton should contain $50 pounds. Th'
resolutions are as follows:
Whereas. 1t appears that the wa
trade board of the United States ha'
made a ruling purporting (accordinl
to the papers) to restrict Importation
lof Egyptian cotton for the presen
calendar year and providing specifi
cally that no Egyptian cotton of les
than one and one-half inches may b
imported; and, whereas. It appear
that said war trade board committe'
an error tperhaps inadvertently. Il
failing TO state that the $4,000 bale
of Egyptian permitted to be IMPORTS
during the present calendar year wer
Ito be 500-pound bales, such being III
weight OF bales used In all the figure

BASEBALL in GAS
MASKS "OVER THERE

A full nine-inning baseball game
with players wearing gas masks, and
the spectators, as we'll, is the latest
sport arranged by an American Army
Y. M. G. A. physical director "over
there" who brought the bats, mitts
and balls by automobile truck to the
men near the front lines in France.
An indoor baseball was used to guard
against injury to the gas masks. The
size Of the score was not kept, due to
the scarcity of adding machines.

of importation by the bureau Of Gen.
sus, because 1t is manifest that IL the
10000 bales Is construed to mean 750-
pound bales, 1t will be equal to 100000
bales as figured by the bureau of the
census, and with all Of it an inch and
a half staple the United States has
already probably twelve months sup
ply of such cotton based on con.
sumption In June of 1853 bales 600
pounds each), Of all lengths Of Egyp-
tion cotton and many months to come;
and
Whereas, Ships are being furnished
for the further importation Of such
Egyptian cotton; and
Whereas, 1t Is now intimated In
the public press through the war In
dustries board that 1t is very ques-
tionable whether any nitrate of soda
for fertilizer purposes will be i'm
ported during the coming fall and
winter owing to scarcity Of tonnage;
and
Whereas, nitrate OF soda Is a very
vital factor In the making of fertiliz-
ers in the South, furnishing perhaps
one-half of the ammoniates used for
that purpose; and
Whereas, Upon the use of fertiliz-
ers depends to large extent the
crops that can be produced In this
country; and
Whereas, The winning of the war
largely depends upon the production
Of crops; and
Whereas, The importation of py-
rites has also been largely restricted
owing to lack of bottoms; and
Whereas, Pyrites is likewise very
important element In the manufac-
ture of fertilizers;
Now, Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, BY
the Sea Island cotton ginners of the
States Of Georgia and Florida In con-
yention assembled, that we most earn
estly protest against the situation set
forth wherein a commodity that Is
not needed in this country at all has
ships to bring 1t over, and those COM
modities which are vitality essential
to our national life are left on for
eign shores for lack of bottoms; be
It further
Resolved, That we express 1t as
our earnest opinion that the officials
OF the United States government
should see to 1t that ships are pro-
vided, SO far as the public necessity
may allow, for the importation Of the
essential articles nitrate of soda and
lpyrites; be 1t further
Resolved, That a copy of this res
clution be sent to the war trade
board. copy to the war industries
board, copies to the senators and con-
gressmen OF Georgia and Florida and
copy be furnished to the public
press.

French Make Gains
(By Associated Press.)

Paris, Aug. 7.-Along the Vesle the
French continue to repulse the Ger
man attacks, especially between
Brainse and Scissors. A hundred
prisoners were captured east Oh
Braisnes, it is officially announced
The Germans in local attack today
against the French position south OF
Auberive, in Champagne, were re-
pulsed. Last night the French made
further gains in the Montdidier re-
glon. In the fighting near Vesle the
French occupied the station OF CRY
salsogne, just west of the bend IN
the vesle where it turns northwaro
to join the Aisne.

British Air Forces Headquarters in
France, Aug. 6-There have been
many signs recently of extreme uri.
easiness by German High Command
regarding the increasing ascendancy
of the allied airmen on the Western
front. This has been especially evi-
dent since the American airmen have
begun to appear in force and have
proved themselves of the same met
tie as the French and British fiiers.
It has become commonplace
among the British airmen that their
onponents will not face combat in the
air unles in strength of three or
four to one, and German prisoners
have told of German airmen being
punished by their flight commanders
for returning to their airdromes still
laden with bombs and ammunition
which they had been ordered to drop
over the British lines 1t Is becom'
ing increasingly hard to find Ger
man airman over the allied side OF
the lines in the daytime, as is proved
by the Germans own admission that
when they do manage to bring down
an Allied machine 1t is almost al
ways over their own territory.
Perhaps the most striking evi
dence of German official anxiety re-
parding the allied superiority In the
cir is to be found in the official Ger
man wireless news. This, while al
ways imaginative and rarely accu
rate has of late been singularly wild
and full of fiction regarding the SIT
,,.,;on in the air. In an effort te
counteract the depressing effect Of
the real facts Of the situation the
cerman wireless editors make the
widest statements, bordering almos'
on humor.
Tins a recent copy Of the German
wireless report says: superior
mathods of flying and greater ski
have secured for the German All
Force successes on a scale such a
vere never known before. II
