Committee Makes Plans
To Fix Cotton Prices
To Prevent Hardships

WASHINGTON, June Steps TO
stabilize the cotton trade and prevent
undue hardshirs on the manufacturers
and distributors pending completion of
price-fixing negotiations were taken
here today at a conference between the
price-fixin committee of the war trade
board and the war service committee
of the national council of American
Cotton Manufacturers.
Under a tentative plan outlined to be
operative if the negotiations for a price
agreement are concluded, prices on all
sales made on or before today for de-
livery previous to next June 1 would
remain as shown IN the sales. Prices
on all sales made on or after June 8
Tor delivery subsequent to next Septem-
Der 80, would be subject to revision
to accord with prices agreed upon by
the price-fixing and manufacturers
committees.
On all sales made for delivery after
next January /, the prices agreed upon
by the committees are to be the prices
regardless of the fact that the sales
may have been made previous to June
8. 1t is understood that all prices for
so-called spring, 1919, business will be
subject to revision.
1.-The plan," said the war trade
boards announcement, "contemplates
that manufacturers prices on staples
shall be on the same basis of cost and
profit to the government and their
usual civilian outlets. 1t is further eX-
pected that manufacturers will agree 10
devote a uniformly large proportion
OF their productive capacity to making
staples

Cardinal Mercier's Appeal

On January "a, 1915, Count Won
Wengersby, Kreschef at Malines,
having asked for proof as to the
murder of priests in the diocese,
Cardinal MERCER wrote proposing
that ar impartial investigation be
made
ITO this end I have. the honor to
propose to you. NJ. lie Comte, and to
propose by your kind medium to the
German authorities, that the com
mission of inquiry be composed
equally of German delegates and
Belgian lawyers, to be designated by
our chief magistrate, and presided
over by the representative of neu-
trail country. | am pleased to believe
that his excellency, the minister of
the United States, will not refuse to
accept this presidency, or to entrust
it to a delegate chosen by him.
No reply was made to this pro-
posal.
Monseigneur Heylen. bishop of Ma
muir, on October 81, 1915, coura-
geously published a note in which he
subjected the white book to the pitt

lions and conclusions in the docu-
ment, and he forwarded similar

Trading was less active during the early
afternoon with bulges meeting realizing, par
