New Type Warship

London, Feb. 20 Correspondence
There is now lying at Clydebank,
nearly completed, a remarkable
hush boat of the British navy,
which, according to the shipping pa
per, Fairplay, is something notable
in the history Of naval architecture.
This is the Hood, a battle-cruiser
of extraordinary size, speed and gun
power and which would, says Fair
play have inaugurated new methods
of naval fighting and shown the Ger
mans that we are still far ahead OF
them in naval construction"
The prospect of an early termlna-
ton of hostilities caused work to be
eased on this great vessel, but in or
der to make room for merchant
shipping the Hood has been nearly
completed and is now out OF. the
fitting basin.

permitting extension of credit on cot
ton will do a great deal to prevent
forced sales of cotton Which occurs
in the fall Of the year. as the pro-
ducer is unable TO secure additional
credit under existing banking laws.
Aside from this. it will be a remen-
dous rec, T nendation as to the val
ue Of cotton. I sincerely hope thai
you can advocate this change.
Cost of Production.
The matter Of the cost of produc-
ton Of cotton is Of vital importance
Cotton had never recovered from the
blow it received when it was stated
that one Of the leading officials OF the
nation had issued the statement that
25c per pound. basis middling, for
cotton was a fair price. This state
ment resulted in the loss of millions
to the South. It has resulted III a
dispute as to the cost OF production IN
the South. The Federal Reserve
Bank has stated that the cost OF pro
cuction of cotton is - lie for 1913
Chat is being the cost. basis miGdlins

could be used) that. in this way. the
cost Of production OF cotton will be

for the coming year. There is wide
spread belief and suspicion that the
cost of production rs shown by this
department Of the government is in
correct on not only cotton but various
ether articles Of production. An aSi-
tation along these lines through the
press will certainly prove beneficial.
Urgent Request for Investigation.

been broken The investigation has
been requested in public in a meet

American Relief Work
Two American Workers Have
Exciting Adventures in
Darkest Russia

On1sk, Siberia, Feb. - (Corre-
spondence of The Associated Press
Exciting adventures have fallen to the
lot of Mrs. Carl c. Compton, of Chi
caco. who. with American woman
" pluck. has accompanied her hTs-
band in many months of humanlta;-
ian relief work among the Armen-
;ans and later during the most eXcIr-
ing moments Of the Bolshevik revo-
luton. They had never left Illinois
before coming to the Caucasus for the
Committee on Armenian Relief. Now,
Mr.. Compton is in charge of the
American Young Mems Christian As
sociation work at Omsn.
They wer first stationed at Alex
andropol, Caucasus, them in the
hands of the Russians. and were
occupied with industrial relief wo:k.
Positions re found for refugees as
they arrived, fleeing from Turkey.
They estimate that they and other
members of the corps distributed
clothing for $1,000 Armenian or
phans, whose parents had been mas
sacred by the Turks. Help was -ur-
.nished to about $4,000 refugees.
Then, suddenly, the Russian revo-
luton developed. The Bolshevlk1
abandoned the battle front and the
Turkish army advanced. 1T was
feared that the Germans would come
down the Black Sea and seize the line
from Ratum to Tif1is. The American
consul advised all the Amer MS tc
leave at once, and a spe rain
conveying sixty foreigners finally ar
rived at Baku on the Caspian Sea
! There they were caught In battle
between Bolsheviki and Armenlans
on one side and Tartars on the other
The street in which they lived was
dominated by Tartars who sprayed
the roadway with machine-gun bull
lets. For three days they did moi
dare leave the house and had only
bread to live on. Eventually, by pay
ing a high price, they were able tt
charter a. special steamer for Astrak'
han. which is situated at the moutf
of the Volga. I'VE had to sleep OF
the deck throughout the whole trip

into the cellar There was a slit in
the wall and we could see the end Of
the battle Finally we heard the
Czechs cheering, and saw people run
ming from the houses, all making the
sign of the cross. The Czechs had
won. Everybody put on their best
clothes and paraded in the streets
with bands. Collections were taken
up for the Czechs, who were hailed
as heroes and deliverers.
When the Bolsheviki had the city
we would see them lying in the
streets. They were always chewing
sun-f1ower seeds"
Mr.. Compton said he had never
seen any Bolshevik atrocities. but ne
had seen proclamations issued by the
Bolsheviki declaring they would
butcher the people if they captured
the city. He said that once Bolshe-.
vik broke into an Americans room
but had Immediately apologized, add
ing that America was the only friend
Russia had.
Mr.. Compton also said that Rus
sian officers told him nine-tenths OF
people became BQlsheviki because
they didn't have enough to live on,
and because they thought anything
would be better than their present
condition. !.
