DOUBLE GAME SEEN
IN PEACE FEELER

Germany is playing a sinister dou-
BILE game OF peace and war, accord
ing to information here today. Her
peace game is the use OF Baron Bur-
ian, Austrian foreign minister, to
put out "get together" feelerS Her
war game is Indictment OF the Boil
sheviki to war on the allies in the
north.
There is no desire on the part Of
the United States to listen to pro-
posals from the German pawn-Aus-
tria-at this time. 1t Is possible that
Rurian is going on his own accord
in suggesting that the allies and
central powers try to clear away
basic differences as n peace prelimi-
nary, but no high authority here be-
lieves his talk as quoted in Vienna
dispatches was other than German
inspired.

OPPOSE FORMATION
Of COTTON BOARD

Appeal has been taken to President
Wilson for revocation of the order
for appointment Of a board to sta
billie the cotton situation
Following a conference late yester-
day with Senators and Representa-
tives from the cotton States, B. NJ
Baruch, chairman OF the War Indus
tries Board, is to lay before the Presi-
dent the cotton mems view.
They demand entire revocation Of
orders for creation OF q cotton sta
bilizing board and a statement Kat
the Governments policy is to let c~J
ton alone. In no other way, they t1ia
Baruch, can a cotton panic" hs
avoided. This "panic," they say
would result in reducing the cote
crop next year greatly below tn.
years crop, which is slightly over
IL ,0Oo, 900 bales and, therefore, a
short crop.
The Southern Congressman told
Baruch that cotton exports last year
brought $1,000, O0o, 900 in gold into the
Treasury, which, under the new Fed
eral reserve provisions, became the
basis for $4,000, 0OO, 900 in securities,
in turn forming the basis for $20,0O0,-
ooo, 900 or more OF credit
