OF France. Hartman has been recon-
mendeG for the medal of honor, the
highest military award of the United
States, and also for the distinguished
service cross. While these awards
have not been allowed officially, Of
fetal recognition of his bravery and
efficien. service under fire has been
given in the form of a captains COM
mission and promotion from the rank
Of lieutenant. Four times Hartman's
name has been included in army cita-
tions for heroic work.
Hartman is an officer of the Sixth
Gegular) infantry, and cut of the
fifty commissioned officers going to
France with this regiment, only four
survive and each is entitled to wear
one or more wound stripes. Hart
man engaged in every one of the sew
eral battles the Sixth infantry
fought, according to unofficial infor-
nation.
Hartman was fugitive from
American courts when he entered the
United States army. The border trout
bles that resulted in Pershing's in
vasion of Mexico gave Hartman his
chance to prove his loyalty to the
United States, and the American
army came to him to allow this OPP
portunty. Hartman at the time was a
refugee in Mexico, and served the
first Pershihg expedition as a scout.
When the Sixth infantry was with
drawn and sent to France, the Moon
shine King went with it.

Wilson Urged to
Lift Cotton Embargo

Southern senators and representa-
tives in Washington are becoming
more and more aggressive in their
demand for the removal Of wartime
restrictions thrown around eXporta-

restrictions are really being used to

of South Carolina; Representatives
Feflin, of Alabama, and Sumner, OF
Texas, were very active participants
in the meeting. Senator Smith. of
South Carolina, presided and the fol-
lowing resolution was offered by Sem

The telegram sent to the confer

Cord, of the federal reserve BANK,
of Atlanta, was as follows:
\ Regret exceedingly that absence
of associate officers prevents my at
tending cotton, convention today. 1
wish to assure the farmers, through
you, that the federal reserve bank,
of Atlanta, has been and will con-
tinue to aid producers through me-
dunn of national banks and the
state banks that are members of the
federal reserve system, in financing
the production and marketing of
their crops by the rediscount of
their notes when offered through
member banks on commodities when
stored in warehouse and insured.
1--WE can not render such assist
ance through state banks that are not
members of the federal reserve sys-
tenn. Present conditions of national
finance and world affairs make it
imperative that all eligible state
banks join the federal reserve sys-
tenn, thereby mobilizing the entire
for proper agricultural develop
ment."

that the government had lost at least

of soda with county agents and To-

that farmers in the south advise

The soul-hunger for play, curse
Of all working women who live
alone, caused Nita Pierson, poetess
and magazine writer, of San Fran
cisco, to slash her wrist arteries
with a knife, write a bitterly cynical
note i'm the slow moments when
death refused to come, and finally
end it all by turning on the gas.
Mrs. Persons problem, according
to friends and experts who have
pronounced on her case, was simply
this: 49,.
"She didn't have enough fun
Employed as a stenographer and
bookkeeper, and living in a one-room
apartment by herself, she failed to
take recreation. This brought about
a depressed condition Of mind and
body, and finally fits of melancholfa.
1t was in one of these that the
highly-Strung, sensitive girl ended
her life.
"Nita Pierson simply starved to
death for recreation" said Edward
B. de Groot, expert in charge of San
Francisco's playground system. Her
case illustrates the greatest, and
the"commonest, problem Of the work.
ing woman.
Few women and girls appreciate
how important it is to have health
full fun. Play is physical neces-
.sity. It is almost as important as
food. Without play, there can be
but cold crystals of life, with the
fire and spark lacking. .....
SIT is during play that ones body
and mind both re-create," de Groot
explains. There can be nothing like
real efficiency, no real joy in living,
unless there is play. Yet night aft
er night a million working girls and
eat their hearts out in lonely, ugly
hall bedrooms, or else to follow the
feverish lure of the bright lights
in an instructive effort to find a lit
tie fun
De Groot declares that the essen
tial points about recreation are two:

lutely different from the work Of the

Federal Reserve Board De-
cIares Approaching Slump

The government took step last
week to bringing down prices on al
commodities. Officials, representing
of Commerce Redfield, cabled Presi-
dent Wilson asking the appointment
of commission to act as govern
ment industries board in peace time
- Secretary Redfield explained, n
announcing the new government pol
icy, that it was the consensus of
opinion that prices must come down

tivity is to be avoided.
Members of the cabinet together
with representatives of the various
Independent governmental agencies
have held q long series Of confer
ences with Industrial leaders to the
end that their viewpoint and the gov
ernment views may be co-ordinated.
The conferences have resulted in
the following conclusions, Redfield
said:
That it is highly desirable to take
steps to reduce the prices of all

t.uying power exists in the country
which needs only fair adjustment
OF prices to become active and eff
fectiye.
Declination in production, coupled
with a general business conservation
throughout the country is paving
the way for lower prices. The new
rendition has converted a sellers
market into a buyers market, &C
cording to announcement by the
federal reserve board today.
In a resume of business condi-
tions. throughout the country the
board has found a tendency in prices
TO decline. This has become marked
since the first of the year. prob
