Washington, March 12.--NO OBJ
lection will be made by the Bureau
Of Markets to bona fide cotton sales
or purchases under Old-styls con-.
tracts for the sole purpose ot liIui-
datIng actually existing long or snOrt
interests, provided such liquidation
is accomplished not later tnan May
/, 1919. after which date all trans
actions must be new-style contracts,
as provided in the law approved on
March 4.
Firms having such outstanding m
terests on March 4 will be required
to report their positions at once AMI
to make daily reports Of the number
Of bales sold or bought until their
outstanding old-style contracts are
f:lled.
Call transactions must comply
with the new-style contracts as fixed
b. the law.
Conferences between Charles
Brand, chief of the bureau; Judge
Graham, cotton futures attorney for
the Treasury Department, and other
officials have resulted in ar infor-
NAL opinion, which was expressed as
follows:
THE question as to whether or
not there can be trading In old-style
contracts. in liquidation of outstand.
ing contracts entered into prior to
March 4, Is open to serious doubt
from legal standpoint. AS a prac-
tical matter we sympathize with the
trade in its situation brought about
by making the amendment effective
with approval of the act. instead Of
later, as originally contemplated.
"In the circumstances. no opposi-
tion will be made to bona fide sales
or purchases Of old-style contracts
for the sole purpose of liquidation
Of actually existing long or short in
terests. provided such liquidation ia
accomplished not later than May !,
1919, on and after which date all
sales or purchases on exchanges must
be new-style contracts.
in order that the Treasury De-
partment may be constantly advised
of the situation. II will be necessary
for each firm having any standing
interest on March to report either
directly or through the clearing
house to the cotton futures attorney
at once it's exact position in each
month and to report for each day the
number of bales sold or bought In
reduction of such outstanding inter-
est, until all existing old-style con-
| tracts have been entirely liquidated

| tions. an examination of the act fails
to disclose any language upon which
the Government would be warrantei I
IN hasing the ruling that new trades
may be executed in oh-style con-
tracts pursuant to call Transactions

the claim that Durant is not en-
titled to even claim the state cham
pionship.
Coach Laird of the local school
team believes It is a clear case of
showing the white feather and thu
yellow streak and in view of the
fact that his team made arrange
ments In good faith. and arrange
ments had been made for the game
at the capital city, he feels not n
little bit incensed at the outcome.
A subscription list was passed To-
caily to defray the teams expenses

ary happy and impressive vein, Rev.

quaintances. She is a splendid young
woman. with every qualification to
make her young husband happy. The
groom. Luther McDuffey, was raised
from early childhood in Durant

to the greater portion of our citizen
ship as one of the most exemplary
and industrious young men Of the

unexpected. The young people. who
will continue to make their home
here, have the sincere we'll wishes OF
