ALLEN DECLARES REDUCED ACREAGE

City Practices Condemned By Federal Trade
 Commission.

Topeka. Kans., April 2.-ln reply to 8 telegram from J. 5. Wannamaker, chairman of the South Carolina Cot ton association, requesting a further statement on his position regarding the effort to reduce the acreage of cotton in the south Governor Henry J. Allen. in q telegram tonight. told Mir. Wannamaker that he believed the proposal was in violation of federal trade commission orders. The gov ernor stated that the question at 1s- sue seems to rest upon the right of any group of men to form a combi- nation for the restraint of produc- tion."
 He cited two practices which the federal trade commission had con- demned One fOrbidS the "enterlnS into an agreement or understanding or pool by competitors to maintain prices or allot business"
 The other foroids agreement among competitors to limit output
 Must Feel Safe
 Ut strikes me" the sOvernor's telegram says. that you gentlemen must be rather sure of your immun- ily from prosecution in attempting to run so contrary to declared public policy. Having read an entire set of circulars which the cotton reduc- tion propaganda has issued for the purpose of in5uring small acreage of cotton. l am inclined to believe that it is more movement ill the interest of those engaged in specula- tion of the product than in the grow ing thereof. The question at issue seems to be whether any class of business men having purchased a widely needed commodity on the market with the expectation that 1t would go higher, should be allowed to recoup their losses by stifling production. Your own declaration before the South Carolina legisla- ture that you expected 8 crit ical shortage of cotton before the 1919 crop becomes available, makes 1t perfectly apparent that you rec ognize that the present cotton cOndi- tion is not going to continue and that situation will become critical, you hope to make even more critical by creating a condition in which there will not De enough cotton to meet the worlds demand.
 FavOrs Price Regulation.
 q am receiving, letters and tele grams from many of your own people informing me that this movement is in ithe interest of spectators ant not of the cotton grower. | governmental action Is necessary tt stabilize the price of cotton during the period of industrial and economic raadjustment. l will be glad to as sist in the consideration of such ; plan put I cannot bring myself tt approve in the face of the great neet of the world, reduction in neces sary commodities"

There is much closer connection between the stomach and brain than most people imagine. It Is because Of this close connection that indigestion, helchlng, sour, gassv stomach and other stomach rniseries all of which are sure signs of acid stomach-are so often followed by severe attacks of binding. splitting headaches.
 Nervousness, sleeplessness, irritabil- ity ,mentaidepression ,melancholiaa and many other disorders which affect the brain can also nearly always be traced to the same source-ac -acid-stomach.
 So often you hear people say T am SO nervoas 1 think I'll fly to pieces;' or ltsearns never get a good nights sleep any more, my nerves are all on edge" Little do they dream that acid stomach is the direct cause of their troubles because very often there are no paina IF the stomach at all.

HINES REFUSES NEW STEEL PRICE
 ENDORSEMENTS
Effort to Effect Agreement Between Hines and
 Board Fails.

Washington, April 2.-Director General Hines of the railroad admin istration which is the largest pur- chaser of steel in the United States, refused today to accept the price re- adjustments arranged by the indus trial board of the department of commerce in conference with repres- entatives of the steel industry.
 An effort to effect an agreement between the board and the head of the railroad administration failed, al- though members of the cabinet, the industrial board of representative of the food, and fuel administrations, the war trade board, and the war finance corporation conferred for four hours. The conference at times grew stormy, with the cabinet mem- bers finally withdrawing to an ad- joining room from which they energ- ed with a recommendation that the question be recommitted to the board for further consideration. This final ly was agreed upon.
 Members of the conference were reticent in discussing the proceed, ings. Secretary Glass, who called Cn0 conference, TeIuSeu tO see news paper men afterward and the off cial statement concerning the gath ering was very brief. As originally is- sued 1t read:
 "The steel prices approved by the industrial board of the department of commerce, not having been accept ed by the railroad administration, the views of both were expressed at the conference. The view of the indus trial board were expressed by Secre- 1tary Redfield, Chairman Peek and other members of the board The 'views of the railroad administration were presented by Director General Hines. The matter was recommitted to the board for further considera- tion."
 The statement caused such furry by its intimation that the entire question of steel prices would be re- opened that an amendment was added by Chairman Peek to make the last sentence read:
 "The matter was recommitted to the board for further consideration with the railroad administration"
