Price Fixing for cotton
Called Off At Present

Washington, Sept. 27.-The
war industries board committee
on cotton distribution announced
today that it will not recommend
that price be fixed on raw cotton
at the present time, nor will it so
recommend in any event before
sufficient time has elapsed to test
the effect as a stabilizing influence
of the work assigned to the COM
mittee, unless unexpected change
of such violence should occur as
to threaten the welfare of legiti-
mate interests.
The statement, signed by
Thomas Walker Page, chairman
of the boards cotton committee
and Charles j. Brand, chairman
of the committee on cotton distri-
button, warns the cotton interests
against giving credence to unaut-
horized reports or rumors purport.
ing to come from the two COM
mittees. They are urged to pro.
ceed in the normal transaction of
business without uncertainty or
hesitation. -
The committee on cotton distri.
button has been organized, it is
stated, and has been. directed to
effect as quickly as possible an
equitable distribution of cotton
as to quantity and also as to grade
among both domestic and foreign
manufacturers, with a special
view to providing for the proper
utilization of the surplus of grade
below middling.
All purchases both for foreign
and domestic consumption will
continue to be made at market
prices through the marketing
and distributing agencies com.
monty used, unless the cotton
committee shall determine that a
necessity has arisen for making a
change.

Americans In Great Victory

Twelve towns and more than
5000 German prisoners have
been taken by American troops,
fighting in conjunction with the
French, in new offensive begun
with the break of day Thursday
in the region extending from
northwest of Verdun to within
fifteen miles of the cathedral
city Of Rheims.
The Americans advanced to a
depth of seven miles, overcoming
the stubborn resistance of the en-
emy. Pennsylvania: Kansas and
Missouri troops were among the
fighting forces which in less than
a day won territory of great i'm.
portance to the enemy and further
depleted his army through men
captured or killed or wounded.
Troops of the French army,
operating in conjunction with the
Americans in new battle along
the Champagne front, have con-
quered positions that the Ger.
mans have been fortifying for
four years, positions that they
have sacrificed thousands of men
to hold. The French losses have
been remarkably light, in spite Of
the fact that the Germans resi-.
tance stiffened Thursday afteroon.
General Gouraud's soldiers, who
advanced to the positions three
years ago and have been facing
them ever since, are now enjoy
ing a peculiar satisfaction in be.
ing in them.
In the battle Of Champagne in
1915, the taxing of these positions
would have demanded a sacrifice
that the strategic advantage to be
gained then did not warrant.
The situation is changed now.
Successive blows administered to
the Germans on different parts of
the front give a different meaning
in the attack.

Concerning Christmas
Purchases,

i
The Council of National De-
fense has heretofore emphasized
the necessity of restricting Christ.
mas buying during the coming
fall for certain specific reasons
which it has stated. These rea-
sons are in brief the necessity for
saving labor and material in the
manufacture and sale of Christmas
gifts and of saving the transport
alton and delivery facilities nece.
ssary involved in the large volume
of Christmas purchases.
After conference with represen.
tatives of leading industries and
retail interests concerned, it is
found that the manufacture of
goods for the coming holiday
season has been substantially
completed, that the transportation
of the goods to the point of sale
IS also largely done and that much
of the material used for Christ
mas purchases. especially in the
manufacture of toys, is the waste
material derived from prior pro-
cesses of manufacture.
The retail interests represented
at the conference have agreed
not to increase their working force
by reason of the holiday business
over the average working force
employed by them throughout the
year and not to increase the
normal working hours of their
force during the Christmas season.
They also agreed to use their ut
most efforts to confne Christmas
giving, except for young children,
to useful articles and to spread
the period for holiday purchases
over the months of October, Nov.
ember, and December. In order
to relievethe transportation facili-
ties of the country from conges-
ton in the latter half of Decem-
Der which would be so hurtful to
the interests of the nation that
it cannot be permitted, the retail
interests represented at this hear
ing have agreed to cooperate fur.
ther in the campaign heretofore
and now being carried on under
the auspices of the War Indus
tries Board to restrict deliveries
and to induce their customers to
carry their own packages where
ever possible.
The above suggestions if faith.
fully and Loyalty put into effect
throughout the country will make
possible a continuance of the
holiday custom without endanger.
ing the national interests thereby.
The announcement is definitely
conditioned upon loyal and thor.
ougb cooperation in spirit and in
letter on the part of sellers and
buyers throughout the country.
