down and the mercury goes off. In other words. it is governed by fluctuating fon- ditions, and cotton is the only agricul- ture product where the mercury is used or allowed to be used. With every other crop, supply and demand governs tho market. With cotton it is different, and the greater number of grades that can be rendered on a contract, the greater the opportunity for the use of gambling facilities"
 Senator Conner was very much at home in discussing cotton. He invited questions and very frankly stated that he could ansewer any propounded. When Senator Smoot attempted to disturb the situation by a question, the Alabama senator re- piled: II know that. am perfectly famt- liar with all bills on the question and can answer any question The eliminations grades, and those grades commence with low middlng and go to middling fair. It carries seven grades called white cotton. In the colors, it goes from strict middl- ing light yellow stains, and these are the very grades we are dealing with now.
 Senators are certainly easy with new man and I wish to thank them all This is the first speech have tried to make in ten years except one. I will state to the senate that 1 am a farmer and manufacturer. As the senator from Utan said awhile ago, I have handled quite bit of cotton on the exchanges, and my experience makes me perfectly familiar with it It would have been perfectly easy for me to answer any question. because have gone into the mater very carefully

The showing of the picture has bean arranged as follows: Women only today, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Men only on Friday and Saturday. During tho showing for women only Miss Martha Lavaeck. the nurse who assisted pr. Haiselden during the Bcllingers case. will personally deliver a most interesting and astounding lecture before each showing of the film. While pr. Harry J. Brooks. a noted orator of Chicago, will lecture during the showing for men only.
 The film is one that will appeal to thinking people who recognize the wis., dom of It's propaganda for stringent eugenic marriage laws to prevent the transmission of hereditary diseases.
 The big underlying thought of this pic- ture was prompted by an accidental in- sight into the conditions of mankind thai have always been kept as a dark secret The very things that should have been gwen to the light of the civilized world have been shrouded in darkness There Is no more vital knowledge necessary to our happiness than that of our ftness to marry.

REPUBLICAN, QUARRELS
 DELIGHT DEMOCRATS

Washington, March 28.-tSpeciaI.1-- The effort of republicans to cut each others throat in the Senate of the United States, hold democrats each day more and more entranced. The intense bitterness on the part of sem atorial adherents to the respective re- publican presidential candidates may bear good democratic fruit, 1t is pointed out. At any rate, it is regarded as an augury of another split in the G. o. F. ranks with consequent democratic sue cess.

go hand in hand. and clean bodies make clean minds, Are You Fit to Marryr'' answers these questions In a most inter esting manner, with a story full of pa- thos. sentiment and love. No one, young or old. can afford to miss knowing this uncovered secret
 The story was written by the well known Jack Lait and woven arounJ eAa refusal of Dr. Harry J. Haiselden to lop- crate to save the lives of defective and hopelessly deformed babies. The cast, consisting of the best talent in motion pictures, the photoplay and direction are excellent. It Is not 8 morbid story, but one that will interest you from start to finish with a series of interesting events told rapidly and backed by a most powerful story. The film Is positively not offensive, but owing to the delicate sub- ject with which it deals. it will be shown strictly to separate audiences only, and no children will be admitted unless ac- companied lby their parents.

800 Davidson Building Washington. March -s.-tSpeciaf )-Tne senate adopted the amendment to the agri cultural appropriation bill proposed by Senator Conner of Alabama that under the terms of which a buyer of cotton will be guaranteed delivery in half his pur- chase from grades of middling fair, strict good middling, good middling, strict mid >dling and middling, and the remainder From any official standard grade
 In discussing his amendment, Senator kComer. in his first speech before the sen \ late, said: This amendment is offered for the purpose of giving cotton contractors on exchanges protection in delivery As 1t is now. there are ten different grades of cotton delivered unoer contract.
 Tn the contract as at present written the seller has from the twenty-ffth of the preceding months to the end of the succeeding month to tender delivery, or in other words, to name the date at which he will deliver under the contract. In addition, the seller has the option to de- liver either one of these grades, or any grades. or any combination of them: the buyer having to take just what is offer ed
 The purpose of this amendment is to give the buyer the one-half, I will call 1t; in other words. to give him from mid ding fair for one-half of it. The seller, as far as the other half Is concerned, still has a free scope.
 T am free to admit that the restric- tions ought to be much closer. A cotton contract should be just like a corn, wheat or a meat contract. Under those contracts, you get what you buy; with cotton it is very. very different. And this multiplicity of grades is the cause of the Trouble.
 The cotton exchanges are expected to be the barometer of the market, not the kheromometers. The barometer shows the True weather condition and its future But the cotton exchange is like a ther- rnometer. Heat and the bulb and the mercury goes up or put the temperature

WILL ASK. ACCOUNTING
 OF ANTT-SALOON LEAGUE

Washington, March 28.-(SpeciaL)- Since the conviction of Senator New berry of the charge of having expended vast sums of money in landing a seat in the Senate of the United States, ev- [ erybody is looking into the candidacy of every individual aspiring to public office, especially those very rich men without experience in legislation or administration.
 And a call will be made on the American Federation of Labor, and the Anti-Saloon League of America, to air its linen, clean or otherwise. before the public.
 In this connection the Washington Post editorially says in part today:
 The records at the capitol do not disclose any accounting ,of the Anti Saloon League of America for money expended in any campaign, and yet for years it has been active in the election of senators and representatives and the defeat of others. The management of this organization has announced it's in- tention of opposing 'unfavorable' can didates in the forthcoming campaign. In fact. the league Is reported to be en- gagged in the task of raising millions part of which is to be devoted to this purpose. Obviously. it should make an accounting the same as any other po- fitical committee.
 By getting into the campaign, in- dorsing certain candidates and promis- ing them support the American Fed eration of Labor appears also to bring itself within the law requiring an ac- counting for campaign funds. A de- mand will be made in Congress that this organization. too, submit state ment of receipts and disbursements" BLACKMON FAVORS
