Calls 1t Distortion.


PARIS, July 28.-"A distortion of
the truth was the characterization
applied today by Alexandra Riddot to
the recent statement of Matthias Err
berger, the German finance minister,
declaring that Great Britain and
France made peace overtures to Ger
many through the Vatican, in 1917,
which Germany rejected. M. Riddot
who was then Foreign Minister at the
time in question, made the declaration
in a statement to Marcel Hutin. of the
Echo d Paris. The former premier ex-
planned the occurrence as follows:
Pope Benedict in August 1917, sug-
gested proposals the same as basis
for overtures to Germany. The polit-
est acknowledgement was made to the
Pope, but nothing more. The British
minister to the Vatican. in his own
name. pointed out that the proposals
had not contained sufficient guarantee
for Belgium.
Cardinal Gastarri the Papal secre-
tary of state" M Riddot continued,
"seized upon this to telegraph Ger
many for explanation on the subject of
a conversation" M. Riddot declared,
but the British government cut it
off shot and the British minister went
no further.
II simply said to the British gov
ernment," added M. Riddot, do not
let yourself be involved in an indirect
conversation like that, and that was
end of the matter"

Inquiries by the agricultural sec

have developed that the tests actual

sent exceptional cases. Many prac-
teal illustrations could be cited to
support the result of each test.
While the grower and handler OF
cotton are most vitality interested and
will benefit chiefly by needing the
warning given by these facts, the rail
roads also are concerned-directly
because of the liability of claims arts
ling from damaged cotton, and indi.
rectly because the interests of great
class of producers and shippers anc
the interests of the railroad are com
mon.
