NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Aug. 2.-After a some
what irregular opening, in which prices
were from points lower to II points
higher, the cotton market turned very
strong and advanced from 20 to II
points over the previous night in the
first ten minutes. due to further dry
weather in the southwest and showers
in the eastern belt where boil weevfl
actively is feared. There was active
buying by Liverpool and general sup
port from local and outside specula-
tive sources.
The market acted very steady
around the noon hour, at only a few
points decline under the highest of the
morning. The very favorable war
news in connection with bullish east
ern belt crop accounts explained most
OF the .f1rmness
A little realizing In the early az
ternoon with selling by some OF the
large spot interests and japanese firms
depressed the market about Is to Is
points, October reacting to 1926 and
December to 1857.

The fact that men like himself are

to mean another strong card in Mr.
Harris winning hand.

The Bureau of Personnel OF the

The request from Washington follows
cablegram from Henry p. Dawson,
chairman of the Red Cross War Coun-
ell, who is now in France studying
conditions, and who is deeply impress
ed with the vital necessity of material
Iy increasing the number of Red Cross
workers in Europe at this critical time.
Mr.. Dayison's cablegram says, in
part:
Conditions are now such that every
intelligent American man and woman
with the right spirit and unquestioned
loyalty can be utilized. You can not
send too many, and there is work for
all who come"
Knowing that Mr., Dawson is now
personally in touch with the situation
in France, H. D. Gibson, general mana.
ger of the Red Cross, is urging all di-
vision officers and bureau of personnel
to do everything in their power to in
crease the number of men and women
offering their services for work abroad.

weapons are useless unless properly
aimed, and this is no small task, as
the pilot must aim not his gun, but
his whole machine. He must use his
airplane rs n gun mount. 1t Is easy
to conjure some of the pilots difficult
ties when the gun mount is maneuver-
ing and travelling twice as fast as any
express train, while its target Is IN
similar action.
Nor is that all the difference be
tween aerial and ground gunnery. On
the ground ammunition Is practically
unlimited. In an airplane every ounce
of weight counts, and ammunition IS
therefore strictly limited. The great
err, consequently. is the need for ac-
curacy in shooting.
1t is important that no ammunition
shall be carried which is not absolute
ly reliable, and all is selected ana
tested. Guns are vigorously Inspected
for lam mt n critical moment might
prove fatal. In training, on the other
hand, ammunition is carefully select
ed for its badness. the object being, by
