trade. We have attained the degree
of production where we must either
sell largely and continuously abroad
or endure stagnation and disaster at
home"
The foreign exchange situation was
discussed by DR.. ]. B. Anderson, Jr.,
of New York. He said continued vio-
lent fluctuations in the exchange rat
es were inevitable because of the
abandonment of the gold standard in
Europe. The speaker pointed out
methods by which exporters and i'm
porters could avoid these risks either
thru insisting on confirmed dollar
credits in the United States or thru
"hedging contracts" by which ex-
porters sell foreign exchange for fu-
ture delivery at the moment they
make their contracts; or by which
importers purchase foreign exchange
for future delivery at the time they
make their contracts to import goods.

MORE COMPETITION
IN COTTON GOODS
American Cotton Manufacturers
Should be Prepared to Meet For
eisn Prices at Early Date

Maplewood, N. H., Sept. 25-The
need for export trade in the cottor
industry of this country was urged
today by speakers at the semi-annuaI
meeting of the National Association
of Cotton manufacturers. Daniel E.
Douty, of New York, asserted that
America should distribute cotton
goods to the world in place of raw
cotton" and added that "the time
has passed when the cotton manu-
facturers can hear with indifference
the appeal of the southern planter for
a fair price which will yield him a
just return"
A tariff wall will protect our do
mestic markets, the speaker contin-
ued, but will not secure foreign trade
and will assist in the competition in
foreign markets only by taxing do
mestic consumers in order to sell at
lower prices abroad.
Pointing to recent movements in
England and Japan toward consolida-
ton of cotton interests, Mr.. Douty
said that in the manufacturers asso-
citation lay "the foundation for the
type of mutual organization which
can produce for the American cotton
industry the results which we desire.'
rs.ar Z. Davis, OF New York, Sec
retary of the National Foreign Trade
Council, said that "the cotton manu-
featuring industry of Europe is rap
idly approaching its pre-war, output
and soon America will be faced by
the fiercest competition in the cotton
buying markets of the world. Great
Britain, Japan, Italy and Germany
are devoting their best energies to
securing the trade, and only a .syste-
matte campaign laid out on broad
lines can successfully meet the COM
petitive conditions that prevail in
foreign markets.

PREPARE TO FIGHT
ALCOHOL ABROAD /
Hobson Prescribes Serum OF Educa-
cation-How America Did It.

Washington, Sept. 26.-Armed
with information on the victory of
prohibition in the United States,
foreign delegates to the Internation-
al Congress against Alcoholism were
ready to return home and conduct
among their own peoples drives
against intoxicating liquor.
Business and scientific sessions of
the congress were concluded today.
"Field day" of entertainment re-
mains for tomorrow as a formal
ending of the 18th congress with
Governor Milliken of Maine as the
principal speaker.
Richmond Pearson Hobson placed
before the congress at today's ses-
sion resolutions intended to aid the
advocates of world prohibition. The
congress, being unauthorized to act,
referred the resolutions to the inter-
national committee which governs
it's sessions.
Mr.. Hobson in his resolutions
urged the application of the serum
of education to the anti-prohibition-
lists of countries where the open bar
room still holds sway. He declared
that the campaign of education en-
ployed to bring about prohibition in
the United States was the best
method for drys in other countries
to use. Introduction of the resolu-
tions followed their adoption by
the executive committee of the
world prohibition federation which
met here in connection with con-
gress. Committees from the Women
Christian Temperance union and the
World League Against Alcoholism,
Mr.. Hobson said, also were giving
the proposals consideration.
The world federation also adopt
ed resolutions demanding that con-
gress deny citizenship rights and
privileges to "brewers and others
whose business has been outlawed
in this country" if they attempt to
invade foreign territory to continue
their business. The resolutions Bit
terly denounced the reported plans
of several large brewing and distjll-
ing interests to engage in the brew
ing and distilling of intoxicants
elsewhere.
Delegates to the congress and re-
lated conference spent part of the
day in a visit to the tomb and home
of Washington at Mount Vernon.

BROKE RECORD AT IVA

- Mr.. Griffin of the registration
board said that he record was brok-
en- at Iva when a woman 80 yeas of
age registered. She is Mrs. Amanda
Sherard and is wide awake and in
terested in women getting represen-
tation. In some of the towns where
we have been this week the women
didn't seem to be so much interest
ed in the presidential race, as they
were to get a part in municipal af-
fairs, said Mr.. Griffin. They said
they just wanted to have say as
to who would be their next mayor
and city council. And this is what
most women want, some say as to
who governs their own home town.

In the last issue of the Davenport
Times Tribune Jim Goodwin, owner of
the Tribune before the consolidation,
sings his swan song as he retires from
the newspaper field. The Lincoln coun-
ty Times was first established at Har-
rington by Frank Gray some 36 years
ago. The editor Of the Gazette fell heir
to the Times after Gray fitted from the
field, we sold the plant to Lawrence
Inkster, and Mr.. Inkster sold to the
present owner, N. Russell Hill. The
Times has always been one Of the best
and most profitable country news
papers in eastern Washington Some
20 years ago Jim Odgers established
the Davenport Tribune as democratic
organ. Mr.. Odgers crossed the great
divide and the property fell to his son.
It was subsequently sold to Mr.. Good
