The State Convention
 And An Auditorium

The Democratic state cOnven- tion met in Liberty Hall. a big wooden building that lacks the accommodations. the convenient cen and the comforts that should be found in the auditorium of the capital city and metropolis of state.
 When these hundreds of dele gate , sat on hard benches in the sweltering atmosphere of that wooden structure lh,.t might well have asked th,nl eel Ies the Ques- tion; Why has Eot Little Rock a great modern fire proof audit Orium?
 The answer to this ques ion lies deep in the fabric of our povt rnment, Little Rock and other Arkansas cities are prohi. bited by the state constition from bol TO wing money and from levy ing a special tax. If Little Rock could avail itself of the measures that other American cities are almost universally permitted to avail themselves of, it could issue bonds and build an audi torium or it could levy special tax to raise money for that pur- pose.
 If the representatives of Ark ansas Democracy go home ask ing themselves why there is no great modern, fireproof audi toium at Little Rock for the ac- commodation of the state con- vention and other bodies to which Little Rock is host they will get upon a line of thought that may lead to constructive legislation.

Cotton Men Are
 Refused U. 5. Aid

Z Requests of the American Cot ton Association for governmetal aid in financing the marketing of the cotton crop of the South were denied today by c oveanor Hard ing of the Federal Reserve Board
 The representatives of the as- sociation asked extension of credit on cotton loans estimated at ap- proximately $500, 100000 in order to permit growers to hold their cotton and prevent putting it on the market at loss.
 The solution of the problem facing Southern cotton producers. Cover or Harding said. lies with the producers representatives and their home banks.
 Go back hom. and tell the people to quit talking calamity, :" the govetnor said, suggesting that the cotton men sell their high grade stock to meet demands as they arise, which would enable then gradually to liquidate their low-gra c cotton for a better market.
 ''The Federal Reserve Board is keenly alive to the importance of doing everything to sustain agri- culture in all sections of the country the governor said, but he added that the board is not authorized to deal in prices though its action might have an effect upon them.
 Recent estimates of the value of this years staple crops are $32, 100000. .O00," the governor said, "and extension of credit to assist producers in all prats of the country would mean about $6. 900 900, 900 in loans"
