could have made.
Tho series Of accidents Also had a
noteworthy effect on slowing down the
speed of the second half Of the race.
From the engineering point of view.
II seems plain that four-cylinder cars
remain supreme for events of this
length. Motor trouble waa. in fact, In
evidence'very little among the "fours.' -
That racing construction Ii becoming
lighter than the laws Of safety should
permit seems also evident. Beaxingx

thoroughly familiar with their mounts

GERMANY WILL
 NEED COTTON
Estimated That 100000 Bales Will Be Needed By Next Year Foreigners Are Ready For the German Trade.

Washington, July 28.-German cot ton mills with 10,000,000 spindles es- timated as still suitable for operation, can consume about 100000 bales of cotton during the next year, if means rae found to finance the movement of the commodity from the United States, said report by Erwin w. Thompson, commercial attache of the bureau of foreign and domestic com merce, made public tonight.
 Mr. Thompson outlined plan by which Danish and Dutch traders may be furnished cotton for resale to Ger many and allowed to assume part of the credit risk. Out of 4,067,018 bales of cotton in storage in the U. S., on June 30, he estimated very large proportion was classified in the lower grades which are especially suitable for German mills.
 At this time the German mills would be eager buyers for the lowest grades" MT. Thompson's report said, pointing out that during the war they have been operating on wastes, shod- dies, nettle fiber and paper, owing to the blockade.
 Cotton experts are agreed that cotton in public store in the United States is nearly all of grades below those most desired by domestic mills"
 Declaring that the problem for the American producers and holders of cotton was to find way to offer large assorted stock of cotton to the Ger man spinners, and at the same time be secured for the value of their prop erty. MT. Thompson said that ware houses and exchange facilities in Rot terdam, Holland, now were available for handling such trade. Several strong trading companies in Rotterdam are in a position to handle and finance cotton into Ger many as fast as they can consume it." he said.
 Matters can be so arranged with them that American bankers can finance the cotton in any amount into safe warehouses in Holland, the Hol- landers can arrange their own credits for delivery to German spinners in lots to suit their weekly or monthly requirements.
 Owing to great labor troubles at the moment it would be hard to start up spinning at full capacity, even if the cotton were on the spot. But it is estimated that within few months after cotton begins to arrive the mills could use 10000 bales month." l Danish traders are also willing. MT, Thompson reported, to resume hand ling cotton into Russia and would also stand willing to join in supplying Ger many.

FRENCH TREATY H| SOUGHT BY SENATE
Indications Are That the Special Treaty Will Soon be Submit ted-Republicans Are Unde- cided.

Washington, July 28.-The special defensive treaty with France, which Republican senators have declared President Wilson is withholding from the Senate in violation of it's own terms, probably will be submitted for ratification within a few days.
 To group of Democratic senators with whom he talked at the capitol late today the president indicated that the treaty, which promises American aid to France in case of any unprovoked attack from Germany would be laid before the Senate pos sibly tomorrow. It was said he prob ably would not present it in person but would send with it written mes sage urging it's ratification.
 The development followed remov al of Senate criticism of the presi- dents delay and headed off plan dis cussed among Republican leaders to drop consideration of the treaty of Versailles until the French treaty had been submitted. A provision of the latter as made public stipulate that it must be laid before the Senate "at the same time" as the Versailles treaty.
 Although it was said the Republi- can leaders had reached no final de- cision, it became known that tentative plans were under way to suspend committee consideration of the Yer sailles treaty and force Senate re- cess if the president left Washington on his speaking tour, without sending in the treaty with France.
 Senators who talked with the presi dent today said he volunteered no ex- plantation of his course in the matter.
 When he presented the Versailles treaty on July 10, he made only a brief reference to the special treaty, saying that "its terms link it with this treaty." and that it would be "re- served for special exploitation on another occasion"
 In renewing in the Senate today his charge that the president had violated the treaty's express provisions by withholding it, Senator Brandegee, Connecticut, Republican member of the foreign relations committee, said MT. Wilson also had treated the Sen ate unfairly if the treaties really were "linked" together.
 Mir. Wilson also discussed other features of the treaty situation during his visit to the capitol and intimated that his speaking trip might not be- gin as soon as he had expected. AL though it had been indicated he would start from Washington about August | 5, he is said t ohave told senators to- day that his plans were in abeyance, particularly in view of the intense heat and various important matters calling for his attention here. l You should attend the band concert a+ +ba c;tv mark tor,oorrow (Ts1asdavl
