Refused by the Army
During War, Youth Is
Accepted for peace

Persistence and patriotism won
out in the case Of John Franklin of
Billings, Mont, the first man to be
accepted by the Omaha army re-
cruiting station.
Six times, at six different recruit
ing stations during the war. he tried
to enlist, but met with the same OBJ
stacle-physicai examination. The
draft came, but he was rejected by
his local board because of his health.
Determined in some way to enter
the army he submitted to an opera
ton and was rapidly regaining his
health when the armistice was
signed
When the recruiting station re-
opened, with promises of overseas
duty under peace conditions, he APP
piled and was accepted in the in
fantry.
He will be sent to Fort Logan,
Colo.

SHIPPING MEET
AT SPA BROKEN
OFFBY GERMANS
Refusal to Turn Over Ships
Without Assurances of
Food Temporarily Ends
Farley on Peace.

London, March THE negotia-
tions at Spa relating to the shipping
question have been temporarily
broken off, according to a German
wireless message received here to-
day.
The allies, the message says, de-
manded that all the remaining Ger
man merchant ships be handed over
Internationally, without being will
ing to undertake the obligation of
supplying Germany with foodstutFs.
The German delegates, it is added,
received instructions from their gov
eminent that the question of ship
ping, finance and food supply must
be dealt with only as a whole. The
German message continues: "The
question of handing over the mer-
camille fleet can only arise if
adequate food supplies, say 100000
tons of foodstuffs, are assured Ger
many until the new harvest. The
entente would not agree to this.
"As the instructions of both sides
did not 60 beyond this, a French
delegate proposed that negotiations
be broken off, whereupon the two
special delegations left Spa"
When the allied commission went
to Spa it was believed that the re-
lease of the ships was merely
question of days. II was proposed
T. the Germans that in return for
the use of the ships, rental be paid,
this to be entered to their credit
against their food account
The Germans, however, replied
that this would be inadequate and
that there must be a guarantee OF
steady, uninterrupted supply Of
food. No country was in position
to supply this food, under the Ger
man conditions, so the question of
credit remains unsettled.

TRICK OF THE BEARS.
Federal Reserve Bank Denies Calling
or RESTRICTING Cotton Loans.

q
or Restricting Cotton Loans.
At the meeting of the cotton farmers
at the Richland county court house
Tuesday, one of the men present de-
clared that he had heard that the fed
eral reserve bank was requiring re-
duction in the amount of the loans on
cotton. Another stated that he had
heard that cotton loans were to be
called, as the federal reserve bank did
not think 1t proper to finance one crop
in the warehouse and another in the
fields. Tuesday night B. Harris COM
missioner of agriculture, was directed
to communicate with Senators E. d.
Smith and w. P. Pollock and repre-
sentatives from this state Mr.. Harris
asked for a confirmation or denial OF
the report. Senator Smith yesterday
wired Mr.. Harris as follows:
Have just talked to governor OF
federal reserve board. No foundation
whatever for rumor. Can you give me
any specific instance where any bank
in the federal reserve system or out
of it is threatening to do this thing; l
would like to get this information
CONGRESSMAN Ragsdale wired, Chair
man Harding emphatically denies any
action looking to reduction of loans on
cotton. He says that he has written
the president of South Carolina Bank
ers association, advising that credit be
extended on cotton as security. He Is
of the opinion that we must increase
expectation Of cotton or reduce acre
age"
CONGRESSMAN Lever sent similar
message concluding that Mr.. HARDING
suggests that Mr.. Harris furnish him
nf
might be refusing to discount cotton
papers and promises a prompt and
vigorous investigation of it."
Congressman Bryan also confirmed
the statement that the federal reserve
bank had denied that 1t had issued
any order in the matter of cotton
loans, and Congressman w. r. Steven
son wired as follows:
Reserve board claim they have
urged banks not to call loans on cot
ton nor to make the restrictions ma
terially harder, that they are anxious
for ali the cotton to be carried until
the export conditions are such that a
fair price can be realized. Governor
Harding Is going to Atlanta on Feb
ruary II and would be open to ad.
dress cotton growers on that supJect
while on that trip"
Mr.. Harris SAID last niSnt' II pe-
gins to look like wS have run down
another of the rumdrs by when tne
bear SPECTATORS have been trying TO
break down the spirit of the farmers
of the south. Mr. Sully, Mr.. Weston
and others stated publicly at our meet.
ing that the federal reserve bank had
been the means of the financial liber-
alton of the south, and we are made
to believe fom these fine statements
from Mr.. Harding that we yet have
powerful friends at our back
+. Mr.. Harris would be glad for any
persons in the state who have informa-
tion on the subject to notify him at
once. He did not take the initiative
in this matter, and he knows by whom
the statement was made in the con-
ference, but he wishes t, get all OF
the information available.-Columbia
State, Thursday.
