One of the most interesting manuscripts,
however. OF the general class, now in
the British Museum, contains, among
several others, play called "Sir
Thomas More" now believed to be
largely, II not wholly, the work Of one
Anthony Munday, well-known lesser
writer contemporary with Shakespeare.
This manuscript is in several hands and
appears to have been under revision for
some reason or other at the time. II Is
doubtful IL the. play was ever acted
Years ago an able. IL somewhat imag-
NATIVE. Shakespeare critic, Richard
Simpson, felt that he found in one Of
the scenes of "Sir. Thomas More" char
acteristics and qualities Shakespearean
and he added the suggestion that the
handwriting seemed not unlike that of
the signatures to Shakespeare's will.
This idea was taken up soon after by
an abler scholar, James SPEEDING, the
biographer of Bacon, and therefore no
Baconian. and then the whole matter
was dropped. Some five years ago Sir
Edward Maunde Thompson, the eminent
photographer or, as we might call It,
expert in historical handwriting, was
Invited to contribute chapter on Eliz-
abethan handwriting to valuable
work called Shakespeare England. -
Sir Edward became so interested In
Shakespeare penmanship from his pro-
fessional point of view that he con-
tinued his study in book Shakes
peare's Handwriting Clarendon Press,
1916), in which, on the basis of a
careful study Of the signatures of the
poet, including the two words, by me-
prefixed to one of them, he applied the
result to a similar study Of the hand
writing of the scene in Sir Thomas
More" attributed bNNSimpson to
Shakespeare. The upshot Is Sir Ed
wards confident acceptance of Simp-
sons s idea and reading of this scholar /.
ly little book will leave any candid
reader deeply impressed. If not rhaps
wholly convinced. Of course there have
been many obiectors. Determined
among them is Sir George Greenwood.
who, as n Baconian, is much disturbed
at the suggestion that the man Snake
speare could write at all, much less a
play.

Arizona republican., 1920-10-15
THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, FRIDAY MORNING. OCTOBER 15 1920

next several months The spinning world will pay a remunerative price for this cotton if 1t cannot be bought for less. There are outstanding tremen- dous obligations in both spots and fu lures which must be liquidated within a limited time in the coming period. The cotton with which to discharge these obligations must be bought at a price remunerative to the producer if it cannot be bought for less.
 Therefore:
 Hold Cotton
 Hold cotton in the seed. Cotton so held improves in fibre, gains in weight and by being sequestered is wholly eliminated as e-depressing factor.
 Gin no cotton whatsoever for 30 days or as much longer as demand refuses to take same at remunerative price.
 Leave all low grade. weather-dam- aged cotton in the field to be used for cattle feed and compost.
 Determine absolutely to curtail cot ton acreage next year by 33 13 per cent, or by whatever percentage may be required to reduce supply to a level which will compel demand to pay a price remunerative to the producer Plant literally in other appropriate crops. Be deaf, dumb and blind to all appeals from interested parties and government officials that you over-cror | in cotton.
 Have faith in your own strength and the righteousness of your cause Bankers and merchants must help.
 The foregoing plans may cause tenn porary inconvenience and even hard ship to all interests concerned. but il is far better to endure this inconveni- ence and burden than to suffer dis aster.
 If the people Of the South will faith fully carry out this program the figh | is as good as won.

 stampede followed the publication of the secretary's statement on the 22nd of September. Not yet content, the secretary. on the 27th of Septem- Der. issued another statement wherein the aforementioned policy of the gov ernment was with emphasis reiterated. This reiteration threw the market into a panic. Within a week the price of cotton broke another $25 per bale.
 Hart Hit
 The secretary of the treasury is a high official in the Democratic ad- ministration. He is also a member of the federal reserve board. His pro- nouncements as to the financial policy of the administration, therefor, pro- duce a profound effect.
 But the cotton farmers are by no means so helpless as they are by their adversaries supposed to be. They have in their own hands the means whereby they may work out their salvation, and although they seem to have no friends in official Washington they have loyal allies at home. It should be with deep regret that the issue must be SC drawn, but the economic salvation oi the most productive agricultural sec tion of the United States and the well fare of an industrious people de- mands it.
 The cotton farmers must take the ' situation into their own hands and the bankers and merchants must support them to the limit. No violent or faw- less methods are necessary and no sucF methods should be tolerated. BS peaceful and lawful but steadfast anC determined efforts the desired result. may be obtained.

eralities to the effect that credit would be available to a sufficient extent to permit an orderly marketing of the crop.
 Then the board began to issue its bear dope, and in the latter part oi July published a statement to the ef- feet that many mills reported sufn- cient supplies of raw cotton on hand to last them into the next year.
 This statement was challenged. The editor of the Manufacturers Record publicly demanded of the reserve board a statement of the sources of the in- formation upon which its said report was issued. and of the number of mills thus bountifully supplied. The board declined to furnish the informa- ton demanded on the ground that it was confidential and could not be dis closed.
 More Soothing Syrup
 On August 29 the board issued a re- port in which 1t was predicted that cotton would go to still lower prices. The usual slump followed. and the usual protest by the growers was made. and as usual the board issued soothing statement to the effect that protestants should go home and rest in peace. because the credit for orderly marketing would be forthcoming.
 In the meantime. during the period covered by this review. the price oi cotton had declined some sixty dollars per bale. and to figures greatly below the cost of production. Then when the earlier receipts began to press seri- ously upon the market in some sec | tions, just at the most critical time when the harried cotton trade was ex- | tremely sensitive to adverse influ- ences. the secretary of the treasur, jumps into the game

West Virginia may yet switch to the

that State Senate brought about its

by suffrage leaders and was given some
consideration by leaders Of the antis.

who did not receive the official call

made the vote 15 to IA in favor of
ratification of the Federal suffrage
amendment and turned defeat into vic

the amendment by vote of Al to 40

suffrage leaders, is now on his way to
