Freedom Lies Outside
La,o, Says Bernard Sha,s
"a. Bernard Shaw in the Irish
Statesman)

The question whether a man Is free
or not turns, not on the number Of
laws. positive or negative, which he
has to obey. but on his sphere Of
action outside these laws. II he may
not do anything except what the law
expressly authorizes or enjoizs, then
he is a slave, no matter how generous
the code may be. If he may do every
thing except what the law expressly
forbids him to do, he is free no matter
how Draconian the code may be. His
residual rights. not his legal obliga-
tions or disabilities. are the test.
The children who have to run to
their parents for leave when they
want to do anything are not free.
Mother. may we go out?'' what do
you want to 60 out for?" "Only to see
the lord lieutenant, mother" Ger
tainly not. Stay at home and learn
your lessons" "Well, may Tim and
Con go out. mother?" "what do they
want to go out for?" ITO throw
stones at the police barrack, mother"
"They may. darling: and you may go
with them,"s "Oh. thank you, dear
mother. Come on, Tim. Con. don't
forget your catapult." That is a slave
dialogue. The free child goes out
without asking leave, and cheers Lord
French or throws stones at the police
barrack Just as it pleases. Usually it
does both.
If the definition of freedom is now
quite clear, it will be seen that it is
easier to enslave a nation politically
than to enslave ap individual person
ally. It is virtually impossible to pre-
vent living person from doing any
thing without a permit; even the child
and the henpecked husband Of whom
the neighbors say that they hardly
dare to breathe and cannot call their
souls their own, could not survive ii
they never acted without orders. But
it Is quite easy to enslave legislative
body, and through it the nation for
which It legislates.

COTTON FUTURES
DOWN AT CLOSING
Final Figures Show Net Drop
Of rs to 43 Points and a
Barely Steady Market.

The cotton market was yesterday an
irregular affair with a tendency toward
lower levels. There were not a few good
rallies at one time or another on cover

and perhaps a little new buying when the
report that the Senate had passed the
Edge foreign financing bill was heard.

the Guk cotton States. Many mixed ex-
pressions regarding that storm were cir

OF the fact that nothing really definite
could be determined before to-day. Some
local map readers are OF the mind that
the disturbance would blow itself out
along the northeast coast, but that opin-
ion was not by any means universal.
Aside from that feature the weather
was again fairly favorable for growth
and general advancement OF the crop.
There was precipitation only at a few
widely scattered points. The Liverpool
market displayed a good deal of heavi-
ness. with opening cables considerably
less than due. Later contracts on the
British exchange slumped still further.
Spot cotton there was again in better de-

Ing s4.03 per cent of the capacity OF the

tons from that of July. The August
output was the largest of any other
month of this year, except January,
when production totalled 6.107.77s tons.
: The low point of this production was
reached in the month of May, when
but 1.92s,024 tons was produced, s17,057
tons less than last month. The produc-
ton drop to less than 2,00o,0 900 tons in
May was due to the price question
brought up by the Industrial Board at
the time of its controversy with the Fed
eral Railroad Administration. The top
figure of January was due to the turn
ing out of large industrial orders, held
In allegiance because of the push of war
business.
