Stewart Letter

New Orleans, May 2S.-A bullish condition forecast by the Journal of Commerce and a bullish monthly crop report. by the Times Picayune are among the expectations for Monday. The market owing to holiday tomor- rcw and then Sunday, continued of an evening-up character and reacted sew eral times to the previous low point of the day despite the very large mill takings. Sme little holiday liquida- tion caused a drop to 35.02c for Octo- Der in the late trading, but offerings were we'll absorbed on the scane down as bullish views prevail for next deew.
 Our exchange will be closed tomor- row and New York also on Monday.
 Two private condition reports were added to the list today, Clement Curtis & Co.,, 65.S, and A. Norden & Co.,, 63.2, and the average of eight private re- ports, 65.2 eg
 The map ana the forecast was fa- vorable. The bureau is likely to con- firm private reports but it appears to be discounted and the low figures will be partly offset by the more favorable weather since May 25. The market ap- pears a purchase on all material de- clines-S. R. Stewart.

For the Good of
 the Community

A FEWyears ago the great bugaboo of N the timorous was the size of an enterprise
 If was big, it was dangerous If it was large, it was a menace through being large.
 Conscious of personal smallness and limitations the individual was afraid that whatsoever got beyond the one-man am- plitude would engulf and eliminate the personal effort. {
 When the great crisis reached it's zenith the world powers decided that to win there must be a concentration of effort under one hand. This made of all the armies in the field one great host; mili- tary trust.
 Richard failed in his crusade to retake Jerusalem because jealous princes of Ger many and France would not pull with him.
 The Birmingham district made gal lant fight for supremacy against tre- mendous odds from the 70s on, but it was a slow and uphill game until the U. 5. Steel Corporation in 1907 acquired the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Com pany.
 The resident genius of that concern, recognizing that our low-grade ores and higher cost of producing compared with the high-grade and easily-reduced ores of Minnesota is factor that must be con- sidered all along the line, has for thirteen years built, expanded, improved and in- novated with that limitation and it's over- coming always in view.
 The results already attained and those that follow month by month have served to more than reconcile the district to the scope of operations of this concern.
 The district is all the more ready to make this acknowledgment because it knows full well that but for the brains and resources behind the U. S. Steel this could not have been done and would not have been done by now.
 But for this great concentration of capability and of the wherewith to ex- pand without the hampering necessity of counting IHCk0lS UcIOI0 Cil0 WOIk Was completed, Birmingham would not have the Westield plate mills, the model mine villages, the record breaking Ensley fur naces and the pressed steel car works that is to come, nor would Mobile have had the Chickasaw shipbuilding yards.
 Humanity has made a grave error in becoming frightened about size. The thing is how everyone behaves, be it the individual or be it. the biggest concern in the world.
 Littleness is no protection of great com mon interests. It sounds right queer to- ! hear the same man shout against the size of corporations and at the same time in- sist that the government, the largest of all political corporations, not only run itself but everything else as we'll Government operation of railroads was their answer and one that will last for some time to come.

New 1ork, May S.T(Special.)-AppOr- ently the short interest Is very much re-
 duced on the advance yesterday, and there was little active demand in todays market. Some more private condition rc-
 ports came out all Of which were around
 65. The average guess of members of
 the New York cotton exchange for the condition figures on Wednesday is 65.Y and 65, may therefore be considered about
 what is expected, and what has been
 discounted in the market. This is not to
 say that these figures do not. on their
 face. indicate, a, very short crop. They
 do, for this is the lowest June condition
 on record. The improvement in prices,
 however, has in measure discounted the
 bureau, because outside conditions are
 such that there is no active speculative
 demand and spinners are not active buy CTS ahead as they have been for the past four years. Today weather conditions were generally favorable. and it looks as though we would have clear weather generally over the holidays. In the lats afternoon the market sold down on fresh news from Japan, where the crisis stiil continues. It is reported that Japan Is canceIling orders for cotton, but this is without confirmation.

New Orleans, Moy 2S.--The closing session of the week in the cotton mar ket brought out considerable liquida- tion of long contracts and this sort of selling was noticeabfy liberal follow ing the issuance of a condition report of 67.2 by the American Cotton As- sociation. The more conservative ele- ment in the market however. was in- clined so the view that this bureau would be found more correct when compared with the government returns than were the extremely low figures issued in other quarters.
 The market was lower in the early trading under better weather reports fl om the belt and the first decline car ried prices 15 to- 30 points under the close yesterday. On this decline the most effective support of the day was offered and prices reacted until the strongest months were 1 to points higher than yesterdays final prices \ little later selling increased and from then on the tendency was lower. Late in the day prices were at net losses o1 34 to Az points, July touching 37.SS The close showed net losses of 34 to 40 points.

Coal Wage Increase Means
Big Burden on Consumer,
Says Colorado Operator
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24-The re-
cent IA percent wage increase award
ed coal miners will add $5,000,000 to
the burden on consumers in Colorado
if coal operators there are allowed to
increase prices to produce an adequate
return on their investment, Z. H.
Weitzel of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
company. today told the senate coal
investigating committee. The wage
increase, he said. could not be absorb
ed by his company, which operated in
1919 at loss of IA cents a ton.
Colorado miners did not need the
wage increase, he said, some miners
under the former scale receiving as
high as $500 a year while the aver
age was about s1,6S2. Employees of his
company had opposed the strike.
Prior to 1919, he added. employees Of
the company owned 21S automobiles
at a cost Of $1S1, $50 and in 1919 this
increased to 246 at cost of $245, 500,
while during the first six weeks in
1920, IS new automobiles were pur-
chased.
Mr.. WeitZel said a seven-hour work
ing day would virtually put his COM
pany out of business as the labor sup
ply would not permit time to produce
sufficient coal.

Earlham Grades High, Says
Ed.Dmds; Blames Tobacco,
Frats. for Other Failures

Work was never on a higher stand
ard at Earlham, than it is this year, ac-
cording to President David NJ. Edwards
in answer to the statement made
Monday, by Dean Stanley Coulter of
Purdue, that the number of students
leaving college because of delinquen-
cies is greater than at any time in the
history of American institutions.
Told that Dean Coulter has attribut-
ed a large number of failures to fra
ternities, saying that the average
number of fraternity failures exceeded
by far that of non-fraternity men. DR..
Edwards said he was not surprised.
II know it sounds like hearsay to
some people, but it seems to me the
general atmosphere of fraternity
houses is quite different to that
sought by the educational institutions
of this country. 1t is not conducive
to studiousness, nor high averages of
class work
If the work of fraternity men is low
er on an average than sorority women
should say that it is probably due to
the fact that the tobacco habit has not
invaded the latter realm to such an ex-
tent as it has the fraternity house"

Would Signal Mars With
Smoke Screens: Better Than
Figures on Earth, He Says
{By Associated Press)

BRYN MAWR. Pa, Feb. 24.-Use Of
the governments surplus of smoke
making material left over from the
war in signalling Mars was suggested
today by James J. Crenshaw. associate
professor Of chemistry at Bryn Mawr
college, who served in the chemical
warfare division in the American eX-
peditionary forces.
Smoke screens hundreds of miles
in width, he believed, would be more
likely to be discerned by possible
Martianss thanss9 the geometriccaI de-
signs which Sir Oliver Lodge sug-
gested be laid out on the Saraha des-
ert.
The government has enough smoke
making material to create tremen-
dous screen or spot on the earth, and
this material can be used for no
other purpose, Prof Crenshaw said.
He advocated covering an area as
big as the state of Pennsylvania with
either black or white smoke.
Smoke screens hundreds of miles
in length were used on the front dur
ing the war, and there is no reason
to doubt that they could not be massed
for signalling" he continued
IF anything would reach Mars, if
their intelligence reaches ours-which
is necessarily pre-supposed they
would undoubtedly have telescopes
which would enable them to distin-
guish large spot on the earth's sur
face"
Prof Crenshaw believes it would
be possible to make the spot appear
or disappear by regulating the flow
Of smoke.
