KANSAS RETAILERS ELECT
G. b. Crosby, Topeka, Is One of OFF,
cers-Ottawa Gets Next Meeting.

Hutchinson, April 11.-Samuel
RothweiIer, of Bison, was chosen
president of the Kansa.. State Retail
ers' association here. Other officers
elected were I. D. Van Meter, Parsons,
first vice president; A. G. Johnson,
SaIina, second vice president; A. O..
Wheeler, Pittsburg, third vice presi-
dent; W. l.. Archer, wellington, fourth
vice president; C. B. Crosby, Topeka,
fifth vice president. C. J. Mccarthy
was reelected treasurer. The secre-
board of directors and is appointed by
them. The next convention will be
held at Ottawa.
The association disavowed any con-
nection with the action taken by A L.
Oliger, secretary who sent out PAM
phlets declaring that Winfield, Arkan-
sas City, Coffeyvi1le and other towns
were not welcome to the 1919 conven-
ton unless they adjusted certain mat
ters. Mr.. Oliger DECLARED the articles
were not sent out in a malicious spirit
or in an attempt to place the associa-
lions in these towns in contempt. but
was written as a sort of statement
showing that he did not have the CO.
operation of these men.
Matters were adjusted and the as
sociationS complained of were made
welcome at the convention.
The resolutions adopted by the con-
vention advocated the hard roads pro-
gram of the state and nation. The
resolutions favored the antitrust laws
to protect and encourage legitimate
business, expressed disapproval of
public ownership o. railways, tele-
graph and telephone systems and took
a firm stand in favor of the anti
BolshiViki movement.

18th infantry and the 12Sth field ar
tillery and 10th ammunition train.
This would indicate that these units
would be the first to sail and would
likely get under way very shortly, as
mail is always kept going across up to
the very last minute. Mail is still
being dispatched to other units, but is
expected to be stopped any day now as
once a division gets under way, the en-
tire body is generally shipped inside of
two weeks time.

the regular casual sailings. likely will

Forty the next two divisions
on the list, until they are back.
1t is probable that the Thirty-fifth
division will arrive both at Newport
News and Hoboken. The fact that
the advance detachment sails to New
port News is not indicative that the en-
tire division will debark there. The
division on arriving is sent to the de-
barkatiOn camps, where the men are
''deloused" and then sent to the camps
nearest their homes for discharge.

CALLS IT "SUPER''
Reduction of Cotton Acreage
Called 'sSuper-Patriotic" Act.
Financing Plan Includes Ex
change of Stock for Bonds.

Memphis, April 11.-Reduction of
cotton acreage by the south ''is not
merely a patriotic act, it is a super
patriotic act.''
w, P. G. Harding. governor of the
federal reserve board, declared this in
an address Thursday before the confer
ence of planters, factors and bankers
from practically every cotton produc-
ing state, called by Gov. r. G. Pleas
ant of Louisiana. permanent chairman
of the acreage reduction movement to
consider Mr.. Harding's plan for the
organization of a $5O,000,000 cotton
export corporation with the aid of the
government war finance board.
Reduction of cotton acreage, Mr..
Harding said, not only would bring
down production more nearly to the
level of demand, but would increase
the output of food and feedstuffs in
the south, releasing large supplies for
Europe. Outlining his plan for financ-
ing the proposed corporation, Mr..
Harding said he had ascertained there
would be no government opposition to
exchanging its stock for liberty bonds
which he declared would be of greater
value than cash as they insure a
steady income to the organization
Nearly $4,000, 100000 in these bonds
are held in the south, he added. Gov
ernor Brough of Arkansas was among
the state officials attending the con-
feHance.

GIVEN MORE PAY



dealt with, the Hines statement an
nounced. Dining and sleeping car en-
ployes have presented their arguments
and their cases are before the railroad
administration. Members of the rail-
roads police force were given increases
about four weeks ago.
In announcing his decision in the
brotherhoods cases. Hines gave an
mixing of the problems which he faced
in arriving at a settlement.
when the report of the board of
wages and working conditions on these
faced with the folio in alternatives:
His Two Alternatives.
81. To refuse to make any read
justments whatever because of the
present unsatisfactory condition of
railroad revenues. in spite of the fact
that this class of empltyos had-rea-
son to expect readjustments because
of readjustments accorded other
classes of employees.
20. To establish relative justice be-
tween the various classes of employees
by cutting down the wages established
for the other classes during the war.
"3. To make readjustments proper
tional with those which had been made
other employees.
"Of these three possibilities. am
satisfied that only the last was prac-
ticable and just, and 1 therefore
adopted it,"
Stand for the Future.
AS a result of his stand in the case
Hines said that after dealing with the
dining and sleeping car employees
wage questions will be handled in the
future only in the light of conditions
hereafter arising"
This statement. however, does moi
infer that the pay of employees of the
American Railway Express Co.. will
not be given just consideration, Off
Gals said. The expressmen's wages
have been discussed for several
months and it is not unlikely they will
be decided within two weeks, accord.

Paris, April 1.-THE plenary ses-
sion of the peace conference called for
today to receive the report of the COM
mittee on international labor legisla-
ton was expected to develop into a
forum for airing the dissatisfaction of
the small nations.
Many of the countries not repre-
scented in the big FOUR are known to
resent the assumption of supreme au-
thority by that body. The belief was
expressed that. despite the fact for
nation of the big FOUR has resulted
in unusual speed in arranging a peace
settlement, representatives of the lit
tie powers would seize the opportun-
fly to place on record their disap-
proval of what they regard as delib-
crate evasion of their rights.
The league of nations commission
last night agreed to insertion in the
covenant of clause specifically
recognizing the Monroe doctrine.
The amendment was prepared by
Colonel House.
