WILL Snip COTTON
BY the TRAIkLOAD
New System Will Get the Staple to
The Mills Much Faster Than
The Old Way.

Little Rock, Sept. % = Through
train-load service" will be a new feat
ure in handling Arkansas cotton this
season, according to an agreement
made by the Missouri Pacific and Cot
ton Belt railroads with the Arkansas
Cotton Trade Association. When 20
more cars of cotton are ready for ship
ment the railroads will consolidate
them into a train, which will be rushed
through to the markets without delay.
On the average it has required 80
days to ship cotton from Arkansas to
eastern markets. Under the new sys-
tenn, the movement of Arkansas cotton
will not require more than 10 days or
two weeks.
Trainload movement of cotton was
tried out several times last year by
the roads when embargoes held up
the shipment of cotton, but this is the
first time such service has been Of
fered to the roads as a regular system.
It is believed Little Rock will be able
to forward a trainload of cotton every
day during the period of harvest ship
ment, according to w. S. Turner Sec
retary of the Arkansas Cotton Trade
Association.
From the entire Arkansas territory
the shipments should run. during the
busy season, two solid trains a day,
Mr.. Turner estimates,
Among advantages of the new sys-
tenn the principal one is the time
saved in shipment, Mr., Turner said.
Where the cotton man formerly had
his money tied up for 90 days, he will
Enow be enabled to turn his cotton
money in two weeks.

CLOTHING DUE TO DROP
Man Has Nerve to say That Clothing
Due to Drop 0ne-Tiird.

Chicago, Sept, 21.-Men's clothing
are slated for a drop of SO 1-3 per
cent in price, according to Fred Vio-
land, of Topeka, Kansas, national dir
ector of publicity of the Retail CLOTH
iers Association of America in session
here. In some instances, he says, the
slashing of Woolen prices will be even
greater.
This is bound to be a decided reduc-
ton in prices by spring if the Ameri-
can public continues to refuse to buy
the higher priced woolens. These are
not being bought now and they are ae-
cumulating in the warehouses. When
this surplus reaches a certain figure
prices are bound to drop.
THE spring styles will be 100 per
cent logical, Suits that are now cost
ing $65 may be had then for $40. Those
that bring SIS will be sold for $50 and
the $120 suit OF today can be bought for
SIS"

Is in the Market or for
a Million Arkansas Hogs

Little Rock; Sept. 22.-Texas farm
ers can use million hogs from, Arkan-
sas, according to G. G. French OF Fort
Worth, who was here yesterday seek
ing to buy porkers from this state. Mr.
French is connected with both the
Texas Agricultural Extension Division
and wit! the Fort Worth stockyards,
His present mission here is in connec-
ton with the interests of Texas farm
ers.
Mr. French says that Texas has the
greatest crops Of corn and grain, sor-
ghum in it's history. 1t is impossible
to secure cars to move the crops, how
ever, and the farmers will have to feed
this stuff to their hogs or let it rot.
The state has not sufficient hogs to
which to feed it's enormous crops and
hence it will be necessary to buy them
in other states and to ship them.
Mr., French is stopping at the Hotel
Marion and says that he will be glad
to see anyone who wishes to make
him a proposition. He says that he
wishes hogs weighing from 50 to 100
pounds that are thin, healthy and
thrifty. He will be here until Wednes-
day.

WANT CHEAPER CLOTHING
Retailers Say Prices Are Too High and
Must Come Down,

Chicago, Sept. 22.-Clothing prices
are too high and must come down, ac-
cording to members of the Retail
Clothiers' Association at meeting
here today. In the same breath they
warn the public that the reduction will
be slow and gradual, but that in time.
at least 20 per cent must be scaled
off present prices Relief may begin
to show in the spring but not now,
as merchants and tailors are loaded
with high-priced stuff. Merchants say
they are not giving much thought to
styles, as they are engrossed with the
problem Of how to meet the insistent
demand of the public for better and
cheaper garments.

PRICE OF F0RDS is CUT
TNlRTY-0ME per CENT
Maker Hopes to Lead in Move to End
The War Prices On All
Merchandise.

Detroit, Mich, Sept -estab-
lishment of prewar prices on all prod
ducts of the Ford Motor Company, ef-
fective Immediately was announced
bp Henry Ford today The price re-
ductions range from approximately "A
Eer cent Oh motor trucks to 3 per
cent on small automobiles In an
nouncing the decision of the company.
Mr.. Ford in formal statement said:
Now is the time to call halt on
war methods, war prices, war prof
teering and war greed, 1t may be
necessary for everybody to stand a
little sacrifice, but it will be most
profitable after ALL because the sooner
we get bushes sof the country back 10
a preWar condition, progress, prosper
ity and contentment will occupy the
attention of the people
The announcement said the price
reductions were made spite untitled
orders for 146.056 vehicles.
There will be no reduction in wages
at any Of the Ford plants, it was an
nounced.
The statement says:
"There is no sense or wisdom in
trying to maintain an artificial stan
dard Of values. For the best interests
OF all, it is time that a real practical
effort was made to bring the business
of the country and the life Of the
country down to normal
INFLATED prices, always retard pro-
gress. We had to stand it during the
war, although it was not right, so the
Ford Motor Company will make the
prices of its products the same as they
were before the war.
This in face of the fact that We
have untitled orders for immediate de-
liveries of 156,065 cars and tractors,
Manufacturing plants are being
shut down all over the country La
Dor is being thrown out of employ
ment. Yet the cost of living has seer
very little reduction
Our country is rich beyond meas
ure in natural resources; rich In all
the material things that go to make
nation great and yet its progress is
being held practically at a standstill
because of the greed of profiteers." )"
The old and new prices follow:
Stripped chassis from $525 to $3.50;
runabout from $3.50 to 1895, with a
starter from $625 to $465; touring car
from $575 to $440. with starter from
$3.50 to $50; truck chassis from $640
to $545, including demountable rims
and pneumatic tires; coupe from $3.50
to $475, including starting system and

Little Rock, Sept. 22.-All children
found working in violation of the laws
of the Bureau of Labor and of the
school attendance laws will be report

ers will be prosecuted, Commissioner
of Labor T. A. Wilson said yesterday,
at the close of a conference with Miss
Ledas Aubrey, attendance officer, and
Lawrence May, negro officer in charge

The cooperation of the Bureau of

aney, Mr.. Wilson said, and it is ex-
Eected that the per cent of non-at-
tendance will be further lowered dur
ing the coming year.
