MEXICO SENDS REPLY
TOENGLAND' PROTEST
Doesn't Recognize Right to Object
to Legislation Like Oil
Decree.

MEXICO CITY, August 14.-Reply-
ing to protest from Great
Britain against the provisions Of the oil
decree Of February 20, which was de-
clared to be confscstory and In violat-
tion Of the rights Of Enslbh companies
holding oil claims. the Mexican govern
ment has declared that 1t does not rec
osnize the right Of any foreign govern
ment to protest against DEGREES Of this
nature. It holds that by virtue Of its
sovereign rights the Maxican government
is free to adopt such fiscal legislation
as is necessary. It suggests that re-
course to the courts would be the proper
method Of determining whether the oil
land decree is unjust and confiscatory.
The Mexican reply follows, In part:
Tho course to be taken by for
eigners and nationals alike to free
themselves from impositions which
are deemed condscatory consists in
submitting the case before tribunals,
which are always found ready to ad-
which Justly guarantees individuals
against cendscation OF property.
Furthermore, 1t. 10 generally admitted
that diplomatic representation should
be the lest recourse taken and only
when the last resources have been ex-
haustsd.
'"Ths Mexican government has firm
purpose In respect to foreign interests.
It gives them guarantees facilitating
their development and believes that
its program can only be realized
through the laws and Institutions Of

'Esteeming that It is the best guar
antss II can impart, the Mexican gov
srnmsnt cannot sec way to accept the

Thin, brittle, colorless and scr@g-
CIV hair is mute evidence OF neg

full scurl.
There IS nothing SO destructive to
the hair as dandruff. 1t robs the
hair of its lustre. it's strength and
its very life; eventually producing
a feverishness and itching of the
scalp, which if not remedied causes
the hair roots to shrink, loosen and
die-then the hair falls out fast. A
little Danderine tonight--now-any
time-will surely save your hair.
Get small bottle of Knowlton s
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and after the frs.
application your hair will take on
that life. lustre and luXuriance
which is so beautiful 1t viii be-
come wavy and fluffy and have TIE

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 1S.-Wide price
changes have followed the cessation of hos
unsettled as it faces the problems Of recon
struction. On the whole, however, salts
factory progress is being made with the re-
adjustment TO peace conditions. This can
not be accomplished in a day and when 1t
is remembered that panics the world over at
tended the beginning of the world war there
is room for congratulatiOn for the compare
tive SmOOthEeSS with which the time or the
beginning of peace is being met.
1t has been an exciting week. full OF
breaks and bulges as wide as the war rules
still in force have allowed. On "Wednesday
the government ruled that no more short
selling for speculative account was to be
permitted md since then comparative quiet
has ruled although price changes have con-
tinued rather wide considering the absence
of excitement around the ring.
In our opinion the most important deyel-
opment that is. important to cotton. since
the signing of the armistice on the western
ba tile front. is the agitation over the south
to have all restrictions On GOTTEN exports
removed. While the trade realizes tina 1
much tonnage is required to transport food
TO Europe, the movement OF troops and or
weapons of war has ceased and it is felt
that increased tonnage may easily be turned
over TO cotton shippers. Europe is bare of
cotton and cotton goods and the south has
surplus stocks of cotton. Chairman Brand
Of the cotton distribution committee, has
made the prediction that exports Of cotton
this season will be more than 1000, OO0
bales in excess of those Of last season.
Should the restrictions which now prevent
exports be removed we are confident that
q large spot business would be possible and
with a large spot business being done in
the south the market would take On diff
fcrent aspect altogether.
The census bureau report on American
mills for October was, as expected. because
of the influenza epidemic. altogether bear
ish. the number CT active spindles being
greatcIy reduced while consumption of cot
ton was My 40 $50 bales against 400, 119
in September and 5S4.9S6 in October of
last year These figures are not sisnifi-
cant of any changes in trade conditions.
With the abatement of influenza and with
the turning loose of many thousands of
hands from war industries we expect the
mills OF the country 10 obtain the labor
TO operate to more nearly their full capacity.
While the war demand for goods r:uSt
shrink, the civilian demand still remains
and it IS widespread and urgent. although
probably nCt as profitable as war business
We feel that cotton is entering the new
era Of peace in healthy position and that
as more stable conditions are brought about
the demand will strengthen from all quar-
terS ard have a stimulating effect on val
ues. Holders CT spots. we note, are as de-
termined as ever for higher prices.
