ATTACK on COTTON
MADE By INTERESTS
North Carolina Division of Market
Urges Farmers to Hold Their
Crop.

Raleigh, Nov. 12-The North Caro-
lima division of markets today issued
the following statement:
cit is clear that the attack on cot
ton has been made by interests who
have been promoting a propaganda
during the last year, peace finds a
tremedous short interest in cotton
and cotton goods and in the future
will make a situation fer which these
promoters will be liable.
"This short interest can only Re
liquidated by the actual cotton in the
South. If the South stands firm peace
can be expected to bring such an ad-
vance as the market has rarely seen.
The issue is put squarely up to the
producers and business men OF the
South whether they will retain control
of the liquidation of their chief crop
or surrender it to aliens.
"As matter of self protection these
promoters can be expected to make a
determined attack to break the con-
6dence of holders Immediately and the
South should be prepared for such a
development A firm stand will un-
puestionably win out.

NO MORE OFFICERS
TO TRAINING CAMPS.
Orders Issued Disseminating Accept
ance of Applicants for Commits
sions.-Changes in Colleges.

Washington, Nov. 12.-Orders were
issued today by the war department
disseminating the acceptaing of appii-
cants for the central officers train
ing camps and stopping the organiza-
tion of any new classes. There are
now approximately 100000 men in
training at these camps operating on
a monthly class basis.
The November classes will be dis
continued and decision is expected
soon as to whether present classes
shall be continued to graduation. None
of the additional training camps for
officers that had been planned will be
established.
Secretary Baker said today that
policy also will be worked out to turn
colleges where training units are sta
toned back to their regular pursuits
as quickly as possible without causing
losses to the institutions.
Mr.. Baker indicated that no definite
decision has yet been reached as to
the future of various army divisions,
now completely organized or being
formed at cantonments in this country,
It was learned, however, that orders
already ISSUED effectually check the
development of those divisions which
have not yet been fully organized.
