2S, 1918, but which was withheld
from the public at the request Of
Food Administrator Hoover A copy
of the report, with letters from
Hoover to Wilson was given the

response to a resolution by Senator
Norris, republican, Of Nebraska.

DIAMOND Drill
ON THE HECLA

Before leaving for the Omco mine
last evening Dr. A. H. Elftman com
pleted a study Of the holdings of the
Hecla Divide Mining company and
selected a site for installing the dia-
moud drill brought here from Por-
cupine canada Hugh Boyle the ex-
ro7t. was with him anC it was ar
ranged to begin sinking just as
quickly as the machinery can be re-
moved from the railroad in Tonopah.
The setting up will occupy less than
a week
The diamond drill is an electric
drive screw feed machine with motor
and pump attached to the frame op-
Grating on a universal joint and
capable of making twenty-five feet a
shift under favorable conditions The
drill received in TOnopah is rated
to 90 1900 feet, but can do 200 feet
better and deliver l Is inch core.
"PorCupine was made by diamond
drills" said Mr. Boyle, tho expert
who viii do the work here. an that
camp the work Of development on
vertical veins has proven eminently
satisfactory and the companies would
not dispense with the drill for any
consideration. The Hollinger, en-
ploying 1900 men and anxious to
employ 1000 more. has three ma
chimes working, the Mcintyre and
Dome have two each. These com
pa1'es have to study cost sheets
pretty closely when it is underst ood
that the HolIinger treats so and the
Dome and Mcintyre pay dividtnd
from S5 ore. The companies use
he diamonds for exploring ahead Of
the drills and find the results very
satisfactory.

COTTONS-Crny Goods
Again Adrnnce in Price

Anxiety of printers and converters
Of cotton fabrics to obtain unfinished
or gray goods yesterday sent prices up
another quarter cent. Brokers reported
great activity and large sales in all
classes of gray goods. The standard
print cloth of 64G0 construction was
quoted at 10 cents, against 1874 the day
before. The advance in price had the
effect Of bringing out more goods than
were obtainable earlier in the week.
The demand for gray goods for imme-
diate use was particularly strong.
Because of the heavy buying activi-
ties Of retailers and jobbers in finished
cotton goods, mill agents are watching
the credit Of their customers more
closely and are holding sales within
strict limits. There is a tendency
among some retailers and jobbcrs to
ovcrbuy on the present market. This
is worrying mill agents, because they
fear cancellations if the market turns
between now and the time goods arc
delivered or in the case ultimate cons
sumers refuse the purchase goods free
ly at the prices that will have to be
asked. Lenders in the trade point out
that the buying public has not yet
felt tho full effect Of high prices, and
indications already are at hand that
high prices are curtaiing consumption
While production is still far below de-
mand they say, the falling off of the
latter is bringing the two closer to-

Secretary Of Commerce De-

Its Soul Unless 1t Extends
Credit to the Old World
Business NeWs Bureau
.SfOH Corrsen0u

WASHINGTON, W Oct. 31.-In his final
address as Secretary Of Commerce,
William c. Rcdticld declared that
america would lose it's soul" unless it
undertakes to finance the reconstruct
tion Of the Old World. He was speak
ing at luncheon given by him to the
members of the trade missions from
Great Britain, France, Italy and Bel
gium, which are now In this city.
81 do not believe" said Mr.. Rcdfield,
whose resignation goes into effect to-
night, lit shall ever be said that, hav-
ing the greatest wealth among nations,
we kept it to ourselves when our
brethren need it. For if we leave this
job undone what have we to gain
What will it profit America if she keeps
her wealth and loses her soul?
"We must help these countries lib
orally if we would keep our honor and
our selfrespect. These allied repre-
sentatives who are now touring
through the country will not appeal
vainly to the heart, the brain and the
purse Of America"
Mr.. Redfield's speech was received
allied delegates. NJ Eugene Schneider,
president Of the French mission, re-
spondcd in behalf of the visitors.
Many high government officials at
tended the luncheon at the New Will
lard, including Secretaries Baker and
Lane
In the morning, the trade emissaries 3
were received at the Department of
State by Assistant Secretary William
NJ. Phillips.
81 want to assure you," said the As
sistant Secretary, that the govern
mcnt Of the United States is kccnly
interested in the success of your mis-
sion. and believes that great accom-
plishments will result. We feel that
we must all continue to work to-
gcther.'
The international trade party later
in the day visited the Capitol and met
members of the House and Senate. To-
morrow morning the delegates expect
to meet Secretary Glass and Governor
w. p. G. Harding, of the Federal Re
serve Board
The Europeans feel that credit CON
stitutcs the crux of the situation with
which the Old World is confronted, and
hope to get an expression of the Treas
ury Department views. Thus far Sec
rotary Glass has made no public com
ment on the proposals Of Secretary
i.cuieiu anu val lOu5 private DuHKcIS,
led by Harry p Dawson, of j. 7. Nor
gan e. Co., to coordinate America s
lending resources.
New York bankers have indicated
that Assistant Secretary LetIngwell is
sympathetic toward the suggestions for
handling the problem of financing the
purchases Of the Old World in com
prehensive manner. and like the for
cign delegates, they await with great
interest an expression from the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury. Early this month
Frank A. Nanderlip, formerly presi-
dent Of the National City Bank. charged
that the failuce Of the Administration

tcntion to the banking plans for aiding
