We are authorized to state in TINS

drilling contract for a deep well has
been let with one of the big oil com
panies now doing business in Texas.
and that the machinery will be plac-
ed in position Immediately and work
begun Just as soon as all the nee
essary forces can be assembled upon
the ground.
The state manager, field manager
and eeologist were here the first o.
the week TO make final preparations
with the local parties, all home men.
TO begin work. The machinery VIII De

from there to the j. V. Riley ranch

The men behind this enterprise
locally are we'll and favorably knowr
in the business affairs of the town.
and the other parties to the contrac'
are ranked among the big business
firms of the country. Thus after Sc
much OF the fog and mist that has
prevailed for some time past ha
cleared. the Signal feels that 1t car

test we must, of course, wait. put
the persistency with which other oil
interests seek recognition in the
county. encourages us TO await de-

GENERAL CONDITION
OF COTTON CROP
Memphis Commercial Appeal Reports
Growth, Condition and state
Of Plant Progress.

The Memphis Commercial Appeal
gets out a monthly report on the
cotton crop and the general sum
mary OF the South's crop given al
the head OF its reports by states
says
Reports sent In by correspondents
OF the Commercial Appeal indicate
THAT the condition OF the cotton crop
as of June 90 was 1872 per cent OF
normal. This compares with a con-
dition Of 76.s per cent at May 20,
and sac per cent at the correspond
| ing date in 1918.
This years crop. reports indicate,
will be grown on approximately So
OOO. 900 acres, compared with 81
2OS. 600 acres last year, allowing for
all acreage that had been abandoned
up to June 90. This is equivalent to
reduction Of about 90 percent in
acreage compared with last year.
Our reports indicate that 94.7 per
cent of the acreage intended for cot
ton was planted, and that 80 per
cent of the acreage planted has been
abandoned.
This report is based upon cores
pondence covering in detail 7S2 cot
n-producing counties included in
the 10 principal cotton-growine
states. and is general as to all others.
The report from Texas is given
from 80 counties and the Appeal sum
marizes these reports in this way;

FRENCH DISLIKE LOAN
PLANS OF VANDERBILT

Paris. June 19.-(Delayed.) --
French financiers view without en-

pleasure. Frank A. Vanderlip's pro
posal at the recent meeting of the
state Bankers Association in Albany
for the extension of credits to the
European Nations by American bank
ers.
Representations on the subject
have been made to T. W. Lamont
the Morgan partner who is serving as
one of the American economic eX'
perts here, pointing out that the
American plan. which proposes tC
hypothecate French customs revenues
to secure payments, puts the credit
OF France in a most dubious light
voicing the views OF French finan'
ciers La Figaro declares:
The customs stipulation is abso'
lutely unacceptable TO us. Urgent az
our needs may be We will never ac-
cent financial aid for which payment
must be made at that price. Mr.. van
derlip proposes to deal with Euro
mean Nations as II they were dishon-
est debtors. He looks upon Europe
as a whole and seems to think that
there is no need to discriminate be-
tween countries that have always nor
ored their signature and those whose
credit is small or bad.
