COTTON MARKET

New York, Dec. 1.-THE cotton
market was nervous and irregular at
the opening today. Buying on ac-
count of the settlement of the coal
strike was restricted by the an
nouncement that the fuel regulations
would remain in force until suffi-
cient coal had been mined to relieve
the fuel shortage, and therefore sea-
going vessels would not be allowed
to coal. An exception to this, how
ever, is made in the<coastwise trad
ing vessel and those bound for Cuba.
The weakness of foreign exchange
was also a factor. The opening was

Oil Situation Discussed.

Washington, Dec. 11.-Another
memorandum on the Mexican situa-
tion was sent yesterday to President
Wilson. 1t deals with the interfer-
ence of the Mexican government with
operation of American-owned oil
properties in Mexico and was pre-
pared by Chairman Payne, of the
shipping board, after representatives
of the Associated Mexican Oil Pro-
ducers, headed by F. r. Kellogg, of
New York, had presented the situa-
tion to him.
At the same time Mr. Payne pre-
pared and sent Secretary Lansing a
letter urging the Importance of pro-
tecting the American supply of Mex
lean fuef-oi1 upon which the shipping
board is almost solely dependent for
fuel for its 500 oil burning passenger
and freight steamers.
1t developed today that the State
Department has been continuing to
protes ito the Mexican government
against DEGREES forbidding the drill
ing of new wells on privately owned
property in the Tampico fields and
other DEGREES affecting the oil inter
ests Of American and other foreign
ers in Mexico. ~

SHOULD GET IN BEHIND THE
WHOLESALERS

Our dispatches today state tha&
the secretary of the National Cloth
iers' Association in an interview de-
clared that the retailers had no au-
thority over the trend of prices for
clothing. This is a very arbitrary
declaration on the part of an official
OF the wholesale clothing dealers of
the country and smacks very much
like an utter disregard of the plans
of the government to bring about a
reduction in the high cost of living.
The North Carolina Merchants AS
sociation in their first meeting with
Mr.. Page pointed to the fact that the
reduction in prices should begin with
the wholesaler and extend over the
entire country.
Noting the business Of this posi-
tion Mr.. Page went to Washfngto1
and secured the consent OF the Ue-
partment of Justice to fix a uniforms
scale of profits for the entire coun-
try. It would seem that Mr.. Palmer
, will have to get in behind the whole
saler and tell him that he must stop
profiteering, and if he will not stop.
| to put into effect a plan to stop him.
Certainly, if the retailer has to place
a profit on goods manufactured at
+, outrageous prices, the retailer, whif0
F.: he can be held down to a certain
profit on the cost, can have no con-
| troll of the first cost, the one fixed
! by the manufacturer. And if the man
it simply means that the retailer
must advance his prices as the cost
price is advanced.
Of course, the manufacturer will
fcontend that his prices must not be
/ interfered with, because the cost OF
materials and labor enters into the
manufacture of goods. But if this
rule is allowed to prevail where will
the matter of cost stop?
No matter what the price is fixed
at,e it will not cause single suit or
clothes more than the ability of the
factory to turn them out to be man
ufactured. Therefore, the govern
ment should fix the price of the man
ufactured product, and in turn say
: to the workingman who makes the
clothes as it said to the miner, you
r cannot have more than a reasonable
wage. The cost of living will never
5 come down if every one including
the workingman, is allowed to pro
! fiteer

General Palmer with reference to

in the cost of living.
Wry said that the normal demand,
for goods and their scarcity would,
put up the price, and that the retaih
ers of the country could not regulates
the price. He stated that the popu-
lar priced suit of clothes that before
the war cost $25 and now sold for
$50 would bring from $50 to $65 in

Don't Buy So Much.

We could not get all the many
good things into type that Mr.. Page
told the people of Wilson night be-
fore last regarding the way to re-
duce the high cost of living but
among other things he encouraged
our folks to wear their old clothes,
and to do everything possible to
control the cost of living.
He inveighed against the tenden-
cy to extravaganza that is manifest
and said that as long as the people
felt they should have everything
they wanted simply because they
had the money to spend so Ions
would there be over consumption.
He also paid compliment to ont
fthe shoe stores in this place whom
he said was making from twenty

Regional Coal Committee Places Ban
From South Atlantic Ports.
Atlanta, Ca, Dec. 11.-An embar-
go on shipment of export freight to
South Atlantic and Gulf ports except
that going over the Florida East
Coast railway to Havana via Key
West, was announced here last night
by the regional committee. The or
der does not affect coastwise ship
ping. The embargo was made neces-
sary, it was explained, because num-
bers of vessels already are tied up in
Southern ports for lack of bunker
coal. Wherever bunkering is per-
mitted to foreign-bound vessel for
any reason that ship will be allowed
to carry freight, but in such cases
individual permits for the freight
shipment must be obtained from
Washington.
Freight going to Cuba via Key
| West is towed across the short space
| of water by oil-burning tugs, it wa:
explained, and thus no coal is con
sumed. No permits are required fo1
