Irish Leader for
 War with England
 in Ireland's Behalf

Washington, Dec. 12.-Advo cates of freedom for Ireland head ed by Justice Cohalan of the New York supreme court appeared be- fore the house foreign relations committee today to urge passage ot a bill by Representative Mason republican, Illinois, to authorize appointment of diplomatic and consular representatives to the republic of Ireland.
 In the delegation were Frank P. Walsh of Kansas City, Bourke Cochran of New York, and others who have been active in seeking diplomatic recognition for the pro- visional government headed by Ramon de Valera, who arrived here yesterday to confer with Irish leaders from over the country.
 During the hearing Represents tive .Connally, democrat, Texas, asked Justice Cohalan of New York, one of the delegation, wheth- CT he would be in favor of the United States going to war with Great Britain in case the latter took serious offense at passage of the Mason bill.
 "Yes, under those circumstances replied the justice while the crowd cheered.

adopted him. During the day the buck is never far from the camp and at meal times walks right up to the kitchen door and demands his "hand out" according to Jas McAndrews, state timber cruiser for this district.
 The one habit which may cost Bandit his happiness, if not his life, is his fondness for chewing tobacco. During the big game season he was particularly rest less. Earlier in the fall he had taken an occasional "chew' but when the woods became full of hunters he needed more of the weed to quiet his nerves, with the result that he raided the bunk house each day, and no matter where the tobacco and snuff was hid he found it. According to Me Andrews, Bandit only reports to the use of snuff when plug tobacco is not available.

Little Hope for
 R. R. Legislation

Washington, Dec. 12.-There was no indication tonight how soon the senate debate on the rail road bill might end, but leaders agreed that enactment of legisla- tion by the first year was out of the question.
 Senator Lafollette, republican, of Wisconsin, who has talked al- most continuously since Tuesday held the floor when the senate re- cessed until tomorrow, and he will continue then to attack the bill, de- signed to pave the way for re- turn of the roads to private con- trol. Senator McKellar, demo- crat, of Tennessee, dividing speak. ing time with the Wisconsin sena- tor, declared the Cummins meas ure would open the way for ere ation of the most gigantic trust in the history of the world thru possible consolidation seven years hence of all the railway systems He asserted the bill would permit such a merger.

 in Train Dispute

A further exchange of telegrams took place yesterday between E B. Bloom, secretary of the Cham Der of Commerce and W. N. Nefi of the Cotton Belt relative to hay ing Cotton Belt trains restored ir this section. In answer to a message pointing out that trains run away from instead of into the city, thus causing visitors to spend two nights here, when they come from surrounding sections to trade, MT. Neff replied:
 "I do not mean that to reserve the present train would disrupt carrying trade to Little Rock. l stated in my wire yesterday that to do this would disrupt the ser vice between Stuttgart and Eng land and in fact between Gillett and England. l also explained this in my wire of December 5. If you will say how you would like to have these trains run, including the trains between Gillett and England and providing for con, nection at England, will give mat. ter immediate consideration"
 To which MT. Bloom replied T understood your wire yesterday and the fifth, but what We want is a morning train into Pine Bluff from Gillett. Stuttgart and England similar to schedule 1T effect prior to discontinuance o1 trains 431 and 432."

 Years in Peril

Blackpool, Eng, Dec. 13.-Pro- lessor John A. Todd, one of the British delegates to the world cot ton conference at New Orleans, in October last, told the textile in- stitute the other day that the worlds supply Of cotton for the next :h years vas seriously threat c7c1. He saw indications that the scarcity of cotton would in- crease as the world capacity to consume 1t returned to normal.
 Professor Todd said the first step t. be taken should be to as. sure tic grower of a reasonable price to cover the cost of produc- ticn and 5o reward him adequate ly for growing improved cotton. He pointed out that the present system of marketing did not en- courage the production of better cotton and insisted that the Brit ish government might well do a

Nine Seekers for
 G0vern0rship in
 Southern Arkansas

Little Rock, De c21..-The princi- pal political developments recently
 ave been the entry of Smeade Pow ell of Camden into the race for Governor, the positive announce ment that Frank Milwee of Claren- don will make the race, the with drawal of c. P. Newton from the race for secretary of state, and the entrance of E. J. Reaves and Cleva- land Reid into the race to succeed Secretary of State Tom J. Terrell, Another early development con- cerns the race for Commissioner of State Lands, Highways and Im- movements. It is quite probable that w. B. Owen will announce for reelection before the end of the week. Herbert R. Wilson of the Arkansas Corporation Commission
 and Representative Harvey Parnell of Chicot county have already an nounced for this office. Up to this time the campaigns have been largely of the quiet, unobtrusive, hand shaking kind, but the "deer peepul" may expect something more strenuous after the first of the year
 The fact that there are at least nine avowed candidates for gover- nor in the Southern half of the state, south of line running east and west through Little Rock, adds much to the interesting situation that is developing as to the suc- cessor of Governor Chas. H. Brough These candidates, all of whom in sist that they are in the race to stay, are Tom J. Terrell of Union county, Tom c. McRae and George R. Haynie of Prescott, John A. Riggs of Garland county, Smeade Powell of Ouachita county, Frank M. Wells of Ashley county, Frank Milwee of Clarendon, George A. Cole of Logan county and a little to the north, Harry Walsh of Rus sellville. This leaves the great sec-

great deal more than this to ex- tend the cotton industry. He pleaded for rigorous economy in consumption. The American cot ton crop, said the professor, was the limiting factor in the world $ supply. This crop had developed an extreme undesirable seesaw movement fo acreage, crops and prices. There had been five bad crops n succession with high prices accentuated by world in- fiation.
 Before the war, said the speak CT, a large part of the American growers were on small margin of profit and when prices did not pay they rdeuced their acreage This occurred during the war and the acreage then lost had not since been recovered. American acreage was reduced in 1919 and, owing

to bad wather, this years was "a disastrous failure and calamity .' The result was that prices had been forced up to a very high lev el.
 Europe and Asia are without stocks of cotton goods, said the professor. The amount of cot ten which the worlds mills could spin and weave is now restricted by destruction of machinery In the devastated regions of Europe and restriction of the hours of labor but these conditions would not be permanent.
 One thing which alarmed him was the enormous development of the use of motor cars in America with a consequent demand for 5oO,OOO bales of staple cotton for fabrics in tires. This demand ex- isted at a time when the whole
