Dear Miss Grey: In regard to thG
Japanese question / say. keep them
out Of this country. They are taking
jobs away from our soldiers. They
own and run many business places
here and ! notice how American1
trade with them instead Of patroniSs
ing their own. DO you see them
trading much with our Americana
They trade among their own peoplo
as much as possible.
We trust them too much. but they
never trust us. When our Americas
works for them there is always q SPY
around to keep watch. They don't
think we can be honest. They are.
always in doubt Of us. yet they comd

IS 1ntQhdlaGIlrey
By CYNTHIA GREY

Dear Miss Grey: We are very
much interested In your letters. and
would like to know what you think
about cousins marrying. Don't you
think IL a sin for first cousins to
marry and bring weak children into
this world to suffer?
I know OF such a marriage. They
have two children. a boy who IL
blind and a girl that is sick all tho
time, and they look so runty, just
like inbred cats. Don't you think
such a marriage is just az bad as
marrying a person Of the dark race?
Nc.
The fact that the law prohibits
first cousins from marrying
ought TO be enough to convince
any right-thinking person. as tho
law is made for the protection
and benefit OF the majority.
only hope that some OF the
selfish persons who write me
that no harm can possibly result
from marriage of blood relatives
will read your letter.

PRICES RALLY SOMEWHAT

Unsettled conditions in the country
were yesterday responsible for the dull
and easy tone prevailing in the corr
market. Prices sagged at the opening
and went lower during the first hour, but
recovered, somewhat on a rally. The
market held for the rest OF the day
chiefly because of short covering. Selling
at the opening was produced by news OF
the strikes and the Presidents illness
The failure of the longshoremen to re-
turn TO work after being importuned by
their leaders, had more than a sentimen-
tai effect. The strike Is holding up ex-
ports of all kinds and preventing unload
ing OF cargo of Argentine corn con-
signed TO the Corn Products Company
Other strikes which have broken out
since the last session had a depressing
effect on the trade as did the report
that the labor group in the Washington
conference were about to leave 1t. Ad-
vices from Argentina were none toe
cheering, one wire saying that dock
handlers there were about to leave their
work. Many reports of the President S
condition were taken into consideration
as were the weakness In the securities
market
L The large crop proves another STUN
bling block for the bulls. News of the
crop was favorable, one report from a
SECTION in. Iowa declaring that the yield
would be fifty to eighty bushels to the
acre. The farmer, one reports says,
believes that corn will decline to rs
cents to 81 and is going TO market his
product. 1t Is on the farmers attitude
that the corn markets future depends
This week should give an idea of the
extent of the movement. Cash corn
sold down to TO 5 cents yesterday and
was market influence. Weather con-
ditions were unsettled throughout the
lower Ohio Valley and in portions of
the far West e
Oats proved to have a little stronger
resistance against early selling than did
corn, and consequently did not lose much.
They rallied with corn and held there
for the remainder OF the day. The strike
in New York is hindering the cash de-
mand. Provisions sold Off with hogs and

MARKET TONE Is STRONG

The cotton market developed yester-
day a very strong tone on more or less
general buying. attributed to variety
OF bullish factors. Spot houses often
competed for contracts, particularly at
the opening when demand carried Oc-
tober options more than $3.50 a bale
above Saturdays final. There was also
a steady demand from those short of the
staple, and spinners were takers even on
the upturn. Talk generally seemed of
tullish nature. Discussion centred on
the wet fall which the crop is having
as again emphasized by heavy precipi-
taton in many Southern sections. AL
though the immediate danger of frost
Is passed weather is extremely unfa-
vorable for satisfactory picking of the
crop and its final growth.
There was 1.5S inches OF ratl at
Shreveport yesterday. 100 at Men bhis
1.2S at Knoxville and lao at Galveston
besides considerable at other points
The Bureau of Census condition report
was hardly n factor and figures were
about as expected, perhaps shade
higher. Liverpool had very healthy
appearance. and the contract market
there took an upward course throughout
the session with business in the actual
again heavy sales totalling 5000 bales.
Yarns and cloths at Manchester were
firm and active.
The Census Bureau made September
consumption of cotton here 491,313 run
ming bales exclusive of linters, against
4S9.962 in September, 1915, and 502,536
in August. Exports totalled 236,694
tales. against 366375 for the same
time last year. The number of spindles
active in September was 342l6,662,
against 33.iSs.1S1 in September. 1918.
The market here was strong and &c
tive at the start early buying carr z
the general list so to 160 points up
from the previous closing, and commits
sion houses and spot brokers were most
prominent in the dealings. Many or
ders that had accumulated over the ex-
tended holiday were executed and the
tone held comparatively well during the
whole of the forenoon. There was nat
orally some local profit taking on the
rise, attributed in part to timidness of
many bulls and to early unsettlement in
securities and foreign exchange.
Later trading saw business somewhat
quieter. and a more irregular trend In
evidence. 1t seemed. however, that all
dips brought out additional buyers and
that sustaining power was present at all
times. The South supplied most of the
contracts and occasionally pressure from
That source was heavy. Southern ad-
vices reported a steadily stiffening basis
with an increasing demand for the ac-
tual. The scarcity of good grades is
causing many mills much concern and
many big spinning interests are willing
to pay great premiums to obtain cotton.
Buying turned still better near the clos
ing with covering also heavier, which
brought contract prices, up to new highs
tor ths movement. the finish being 50
to 100 points UP with spot cotton. an
even So a bale higher than its previous
