The Curse of Cotton
(St. Louis Republic. ]

est. Louis Repubc.)
 In address before meeting of cotton manu lecturers recently, Richard Edwonds declared that The Curse of cotton has rested the South since 1795." The point is made that prior to the Reyolu- tionary War the South a leader in industrial de yelopment. That its foremost statesmen were inter ested in factories and furnaces. Then came cotton and incidentally the Whitney cotton gin, and fast ened slavery on the South'
 It is true that Dixie has thought and dreamed n terms of cotton for generations. It was cotton that figured largely in the ebbs and turns of the industrial tides of the Civil War. But Dixie grew the cotton and left it to New EnSland.s water power and old Englands cotton splindles to do the manu- featuring. Cotton what the world wanted from the South and the planter who needed money must agree to grow cotton before he could get it.
 A generation ago efforts were made to lift the curse of cotton from the South It sought tc restore diversified growing. It has been long and uphill fight In fact, until the boil weeyil came and forced change in agriculture, the South was sticking closely to cotton. As the boil weeyil has marched, the diversified farm has come in. Live stock is increasing. The curse is lifting.
 Just now the South is demanding fair price for in other years limit the production. It s certain to succeed in the future, because men are learning to diversity their crops South of the Mason and Dixon line. If the world insists on buying cot low price, the South will get along with stock tobacco, sugar cane corn and wheat. T. hae learned the curse be lifted that the South can live and do mighty well without slaying in the cotton fields.

Big Business and Peace
lNnw Ynrk Wnrldl


 If Senator Rorah and other affrighted souls op- posed to the League of Nations able to fix public attention closely enough upon ther contention that the covenant is the desperate work or nternationa' bankers and Big Business, they are likely alter all to prove servceabe to the cause Of guaranteed peace . ,,
 The greatest all Big Businesses has been the War Trust In Germany it dominated everything else II ruled State church. schools industry, commerce. IT. nance and society gave wealth, position and pow to few, occupation to others More than Tn any other country in modern times, national life and thought were centered upon as an enterprise universally profitable
 but while in other lands the War Trust embraced many influential elements it was systematically op- posed occasion by the great body of the people ed from the Civil War controversies growing out of the wrongs established by Big Business when by the action of Germanys War Trust we were forced HlIo the world conflict in Europe.
 Most wars have been the harvestime not alone for Big Business engaged in the supply or munitions e put for all dealers in money and credit. For the IlrS time in history, the self f-governing peoples 1nVoVed in the struggle undertook in various ways to prevent profiteering and 1t must be sald to us eVe lasting credit that such has attended the movement has been due in no small degree to the patriotic cooperation of Big Business There never was another in which the financial burden rest ed heavily wealth and good fotune, and there never was another in which the usual imitation of prices made by Governmental action to oper- lavshy in favor of workingmen and produe- CTS.
 It is the recognition of this spirit which has made the League of Nations possible and brought to it's support the interests whose good service g now made a matter of reproach. The War Trust has beggared nations and bankrupted others For generation to come, the United states man cially strong will be yoked the taxes which the aggression of this autocratic combination made nee essary.

FORTIfYING WASHINGTON

The statement that the War Department has asked for an appropriation to fortfy Washington or at least to provide better for it's defense will cause smile if one thinks of great forts built in the vicinity. At least he will be unable to imagine our National Capital surrounded with great modern iorts such as existed in Europe at the outbreak of the war, and certainly he will oppose any such works being undertaken
 But that is not what is meant. By defending Washington, the Department probably means ade- quate protection in the region in the mouth of the Potomac river. and such military preparation as would enable the army cooperate with the navy in the event this Nation should be attacked from the Atlantic ocean. If army able to land upon Dur shores, and makes its way inland as far as Washington, forts in that region would avail us little.
 Our splendid isolation" makes inland forts un- necessary. Our seacoast only needs to be defended and navy must be relied upon to do most of the defending in that connection. A few forts along the coast-and already have several of them with proper railroad terminals 10 enable us to throw troops and equipment to the shores in case of a threat, is about all need in the way of defense for this country, providing always that we maintain navy of considerable magnitude.
 The world has been taught d lesson in regard to invasion. Gallipoi will stand for some years as an object lesson. The peninsula unfortfied at the beginning, and the Allies dominated the sea Yet they were not able to land army and have il troops were landed all right, but they held
