COTTON TRADING
 LESS ACTIVE AS
 EXCITEMENT LESS
Further Violent Price Move ments in Evidence-0ctober Relatively Weak, Closing
 60 Points Net Lower
By Associated Press

New York. September 29.-While there were further violent price move ments. trading in the cotton market to- day was decidedly less active and the excitement of the earlier week ap- peared to be subsiding. December sold off to 21.95c during the earlier trad Ing, under continuation of the recent pressure, but later rallied to 2.90c, or o0 points above last nights final quota tion. october was relatively weak dur ing the entire day, closing at 24.40c, or b0 points net lower. while other months showed net advances of 95 to 53 points. although the tone of the market was barely steady.
 The market opened barely steady al a decline of to 50 points in response to weak Liverpool cables. unfavorable goods trade advices and a renewal of southern hedge selling. There was a good deal of covering, but it was read fly supplied, and before the end of the morning active months showed net losses of 30 to so points, with October selling at 24.20c and January at o1.15c. Reports that local. firms were receiving, inquiries from the southwest regarding the cost of rendering cotton on con- tracts here may have been partly re- sponsible for the relative weakness of October.
 Other advices reaching the trade. however, indicated a slightly steadieq spot basis and a better spot demand in the southwest. while the southern hedge selling, which has been so promine lent for the past several days. was found to be mucn less active. This. with the failure of the bearish weekly weather report to stimulate fresh offerings. led to more active covering during the aft ernoon and the demand became more urgent or the predictions for frost in northern parts of the western belt Oc- tober rallied to 24.75c and January to 22-23c, with last prices showing reac- tions of few points from the best.

FREIGHT CARS BUILT THIS
YEAR TOTAL Fl, 1000

CHICAGO.-Twenty-one thousand
freight cars were built for the rail-
roads of the country during the first
seven months Of this year, according
to a survey by the transportation
department of the Chicago Board OF
Trade, in connection with the Car
shortage during the crop moving per-
iod. This department, which, like the
crop reporting department, is main
tanned by the board for the benefit
of producers and consumers, has
been an important factor in the
steady movement of grain shipments.
American railways had placed or
ders with twenty-three leading car
building companies for only 24,S16
freight cars when the year opened,
according to information obtained by
the department from various sources
On August l the number ordered and
undelivered amounted to 50,275.
Those built and those on order Aug
ust 1, totalled 71,275. According to
the Railway Age, if all on order were
built by the end of the year the num-
Der would fall short of 100, 900, the
average number of new cars needed
annually to replace old ones. The
year, therefore, is expected to show
new low record in car production.
The smallest number of freight cars
ever built in one year was 1926,
in 1915. In 1919 the number was
67,063.

GERMANS AWAITING
POLICY OF HARDING
Idea of Separate Peace
Received With Uni
versal Favor

BERLIN.-In the absence of au.
lucrative information or statements
as to what President Hardings po-
Icy toward the ending of the con-
dition of war with Germany will be
ministers Of the German govern
ment decline to make any public ut
terances giving the government e
view of peace arrangement with
the United States until the new presi-
dent announces his policy. H.
The fear is expressed that such ut
terances might be misinterpreted
And after all, it is declared, it Is
Americas first move to tell Germany
what she expects to do and not for
Germany to first tell what she ex-
poets Of the United States.
The situation, however, is not pre-
venting active thinking and consid-
cradle discussion in the inner circles
rs to the new administration pro-
bable action in formally calling of
q state of war which really ended
two years ago. g
The idea OF d separate peace can
be said to be entertained with al
most universal sympathy in Germany
less because Of any belief that 1t will
alter any hardships much for Ger
many or ameliorate greatly the con-
ditions imposed by the allies, out
more because Of the after moral ef-
feet against the treaty OF Versailles.
In circles close to the government
the view is held that an opportunity
Is now offered, in principle, at least,
Tor America to lay down to Germany
really just and equitable peace

the reconciliation of the people of
Germany and America as an example

PRESIDENT ELECT
ACTING ON PROMISE
Will Consult With BEST
Minds of Country
on Policy

MARION, Ohio.-President-
Harding has started in to put into
effect his prediction promise to
consult, as soon as possible after
the election, with the "best minds
in the country on the establishment
of new relationship with the ma
lions of the worii as Substitute
for the Versailles league Of nations
covenant.
This announcem snt was made Of
fetal at the president-e,ect's head
quarters here after conference be-
tween Senator Hal ding and Repub-
lican National Chairman Hays. Har-
ry Daugherty, the senator s personal
adviser, was also a: headquarters.
The announcement said that invi-
tations are now being sent out and
that the consultation will begin i'm
mediately after the president-elect
returns to Marion, about December
Z,
The conferences will be with indi-
viduals. There will not be general
meeting, as suggested in some quar-
tiers, nor will groups on one side or
the other Of the league fight be
called in.
Representatives of all shades and
political faiths will be invited to the
conferences, but they will be con-
suited separately. Women as we'll as
men will be asked to give the presi-
dent-elect the benefit of their views.
This method, it is believed, will be
seemly and most effective in accom-
plishing the desired purpose.
Senator Harding's determination is
literally to put into effect every
pledge he made during the campaign.
He will make no effort to force his
opinion upon the country, but instead
will seek to harmonic the opinions
of all groups, as made clear in his
speeches.
It is plain that the president
elects desire is to work co-opera-
lively a plan entirely acceptable to
all elements and factions, plan
upon which the people will unite and
the nation can support.
But on one thing Senator Harding
is determined, and that is, the pro-
posed association shall surrender
nothing of Americas sovereignty or
freedom of action and shall in no
way mortgage the United States to
the old world.
America will play her part in the
task of stabilizing the civilization of
the world and in esta blishing safe
guards against war, he has declared
but this government must
preserve its own free conscience and
chart, without outside dictation, its
own course in world affairs.

new JAP TREATY
GOES TO SENATE
State Department With
hold Text From Pub
lie, However

WASHINGTON.-The new treaty
between Japan and the United States
which is intended to solve wounded
Japanese national pride and at the
same time have due regard for the
drastic California referendum meas
ure Is In such an advanced stage
that 1t will be sent to the senate
early in December.
The state department at the re-
quest of Japan is Withholding COM
ment on the exact verbiage of the
treaty. It Is known, however, that
as a balm to the racial sensitive
ness of the Mi1-ado. the United States
proposed the recognition of the "civil
rights" Of Japanese now legally in
the United States.
On its face this formula of Ian
guage seems to be concession. In
fact, however, the establishment of
civil rights is matter for court con-
struction and the news today from
Japan is that the Japanese foreign
office has reluctantly yielded to that
inevitable conclusion.
1t Is indicated semi-Officially that
after any new treaty becomes effec-
tive the measure of the civil rights
referred to in the treaty must be
determined in the first instance by
the federal and state courts of Cali
fornia.
This situation takes the matter
back to the period when Secretary of
State Rryan intimated that test case
could be brought in the courts to de-
termine the right of the Japanese to
become national of the United
States and also what his rights were
with regard to land holding, leases
under the laws existing at that time,
The law which has been enacted by
California is more drastic than any
previous measure so that it is believ-
ed case will be brought promptly
to expedite the matter finally to the
supreme court of the United States.
