Barney Baruch Breaks
Price of COttOn--One
"Phase" of the Admins
tratiOn Which Senator
Smith Does Not APP
prove.

The Attorney General has offer
ed himself to yoa as a candidate
that you may have an opportunity
of approving "every phase" of the
administration of President Wilson.
There are many splendid achieve
ments of his administration, but
there are things which he has done
which l hope he himself regrets,
and you are asked to approve them
by voting for Mr.. Palmer.
Let me call your attention to two
things which I disapprove and that
you can not approve.
During 1918 cotton had steadily
advanced in price until, about the
FIRST of September, it reached thir-
ty-eight cents a pound. The Presi-
dent had board, called the War
Industries Board, the Chairman Of
which was Mr.. Barney Baruch. On
September 4th Mr.. Baruch issued q
statement that. with the approval
of the President, the War Indus
tries Board would appoint . COM
mittee to study cotton with q view
Of stabilizing prices. He issued an
other statement September 9Th, an
other September 18th, another Sep
TENDER 25th, another September
9th, and they kept on issuing
statements until they had broken
down the price of cotton more than
ten cents a pound. Among other
things, they stated in their bulle-
tins that the committee might re-
commend basic prices, and the Pres
ident appoint a single purchasing
agency for all cotton exported; they
would fix the prices this agency
would give; remove all competition
among buyers and force cotton
owners to sell at the prices they
named. This threat, of course
broke the market.
The armistice came November
I1th, and the war was over. Cotton
had been put by the President or
an embargo list, preventing any ex.
portation of cotton except under
rules that he might prescribe. He
appointed, what he called, Wal
Trades Board to regulate licenses
for exporting cotton. This Boarc
continued to suppress exports after
the war was over.
All the Southern Senators excep
one signed petition urging the
President to take cotton of the EN-
barge list, and give a chance to oul
markets. / saw the President :
number of times and called his at
tention, when cotton got down Il
about twenty-six cents a pound, t.
the danger Of bringing ruin, no
only to the farmers, but upon tn,
merchants and bankers who had ad
vanced upon cotton. Even in March
1915, when he returned from
France, we plead with him to taxi
cotton off the embargo list, but h
refused. There was no justification
for his conduct. He and Mr.. Barucl
and Mr.. Vance Mccormack, will
their two committees, broke tn
price Of cotton in the fall and win
ter of 1918 and 1919 more thar
fifty dollars bale, and they cos
the owners of cotton in the STATE
of Georgia a loss of over seventy
five millions of dollars.
This is one phase of the Presi'
dents administration that do not
approve. Do you? And yet Mr.
Palmer asks you to vote for hin
because he approves j..

out tomorrow.
In the practice there was forty-five
minutes of hard scrimmaging in which
the varsity made one touchdown as the
result OF line plunge by Rouillard.
Capt Horween was not in the lineup.
Rouillard taking his place. Sedgwick
was back at tackle, while Johnson. In
spite of broken fingers, ran the team
for n while at quarter.
sedgwick probably will not play Sat-
urday, Hubbard being in the line again.
while Kane Is likely to be the first
choice for right end. He has been i'm
proving this week. The Cambridge
coaches are beginning to get to work
on the finer details of play. They ex-
pect that Valparaiso will have a lot of
opea football to show and also fast in

ton has been made to meet this.

Another serious blow came to Dart

Neither OF these men will make the trip.

OWNERS MOVE TO
REORGANIZE GAME
National Leaguers Ask Amer
lean Rivals for q Confer
ence i'm Chicago.

What constitutes the first real step
toward a new national plan OF govern
ment for baseball and the first move
toward the safeguarding of the national
sport against gambling was taken at a
meeting Of the club owners of the
National League yesterday at the league
headquarters In this city when President
John A. Heydler was instructed to In
vite the American League club owners
to joint reorganization meeting at
Chicago on Monday. October IS. All
the National League clubs were repre-
sented at the session and every owner UNI
qualihedly indorsed the movement.
While the league did not go on record
as favorlng any particular plan II was
evident that the owners Inclined strongly
toward the proposal OF A. d. Lasker.
member Of the executive committee of
the Chicago Nationals who suggested
recently that the control of the game
should be in the hands Of neutrals, that
none of the governing members should
in any way be interested financially in
any club
At the joint meeting the National
League owners VIII be ready to accept
any other plan that suggests itself as
more satisfactory. but at present the
Lasker proposition appears to be in
decided favor. 1t win be remem Jered
that when the Lasker plan first was
made public recently not molly National
League club owners put several of the
american League expressed themselves
in favor of it. among them Coils Rup-
pert and Huston of New York. Charles
Comiskey of Chicago and Harry Frazee
of Boston The chances are. therefore,
hat unless sentiment has changed in
the interim the Lasker plan or some
thing similar to 1t will be adopted. The
club owners who are inclined toward
the retention OF the present National
Commission form of baseball govern
ment are supposed TO be In the minority.
The National League decided also to
launch a national campaign to have
State and Federal laws passed for the
protection of the game against gam
bling. Following the meeting lin Chca-
90. minor league representatives may be
asked to lend their aid toward solu-
ton of the problems baseball now has
to wrestle with.
Those present at the meeting besides
President John Heydler were George w.

FOR WARD PASSING
CONTINUES RAGGED
Tad Jones Unable to Account
for Poor Work of Yale
Men.
Special Despatch 70 THE HERALD

NEW HAVEN, Oct THE lamentable
showing made yesterday by the Yale
varsity football players in their efforts
with the forward pass was good when
compared with the execution OF the play
this afternoon. Yesterday two out of a
possible seventeen were completed
while to-day but one out of the eleven
tries could be called successful one by
any stretch OF the Imagination.
II was a sorry showing, and Tad
Jones Is unable to account for the poor
work OF the team In the aerial attack.
The effort to master the forward pass
will be abandoned for day. and to-
morrow straight football VIII be played
in preparation for the game with North
Carolina on Saturday. The great trou-
BILE to-day lay in the Inability of the
passer to gauge his distance properly.
The varsity. with Kempton at the
helm. made two touchdowns against
strong scrub team Once the first
eleven was held for downs Both touch
downs resulted from dashes through the
line. French and Murphy scsring MUIR
ply relieved Kempton late In the scrim-
mage. After the scrlmmage Murphy
tried some drop kicking from behind a
scrimmage line, but was not up to his
usual form.
Several substitutes were tried out In
the varsity. Capt Callahan rested and
Calvin. who played the greater part OF
the scrimmagc, was replaced later by
Guernsey. who up to now has been a
substitute guard. Cutler and Dilworth
started as the ends. but later Shevln.
Walker and Shepard were all tried in
the position. The tackles were O'Brsen
and Into.
In Acosta's absence Cruikshank played
his place with Kerr the other side OF
the centre. The backfield started with
Kempton. Kelly. French and Sturm.
Later Murphy Herman and Peterson re-
pls ced Kempton, French and Sturm
Aldrich, who was at the field. spent the
afternoon punting and kicking, while
several other backs. including Jordan.
Lay and Campbell, had only light work.

Buck O'Neill again failed 10 order n
scrlmmage for the Columbia varsity
team yesterday and II will g into the
contest against New York University
tomorrow without having been In a
real mlxup since last Tuesday. ONeill
is doubtless making certain that no
more OF his stars Will be put on the
hospital list before the annual battle
with the Violet eleven.
The major portion OF the afternoon
was spent In going through plays by
the blackboard method. The Columbia
coaches took up every little fault that
had been observed In the play of the
warriors during the week of training
and further illustrated several major
formations NJ Y. U. Is expected to use
tomorrow.
AS has been the case for the last two
DAYS, considerable time was put on the
play from kickoff and the two elevens
time and again went through forma-
tons from Kickoff. Canapary usually

tombstone. long signal drill, inter-
spersed by several forward passes, COM
