 To Correct a Sander.
 It is hard to correct false reports. Error travels faster than truth, and it would seem that it is also held more tenaciously by the human mind There never was any truth in the statement that campaigns for the reduction of the cotton acreage in the past have always failed. In fact, they have al ways succeeded both in reducing the cotton acreage and raising the price.
 But someone started the islander that when there is campaign for the reduction of cotton acreage, "the indi- vidual farmer thinks others will re- duce, so he plants more. and the acre age is increased instead of reduced" :" As stated. the thing is false and a islander, mean and low It is not diff ficult to understand why every 1.-two by-four" writer for the lay press, and everyone whose sympathies are with the cotton factors, spectators, and spinners, is ready, parrot-like, to re- peat the islander, but it is hard to un- dedrstand why anyone whho really has the interests of the south at heart will continue to spread the false hood. There have been since 1895 four well-marked campaigns for the reduction of the cotton acreage. The one in 1919 was largely conducted by cotton factors, supply merchants, and bankers, and was discontinued as soon as prices began going up, but there was a reduction in the acreage just the same:
 Campaign:--
 1895-Acreage reduced 14.7 per cent,
 price increased 65 per cent
 1905-Acreage reduced 13.1 per cent,
 price increased 20 per cent.
 1915-Acreage reduced 14.7 per cent,
 price increased 66 per cent.
 1919-Acreage reduced "A per cent
 price increased 29 per cent.
 The acreage will be reduced in 1921

PARIS, Dec. 6.--B 9th the Senate and

Premier BRAND to-day, when, under
fire Of a hundred interpretations re-
garding his trip to the Washington
arms conference, he demanded hat
discussion of that subject be post

been passed. The Premier insisted that
it would be tactless to debate the arma-

was still in session, and this was con-
ceded 1t will be debated later.
Both bodies also gave the Premier
a vote Of confidence on his general pol.

Seven Lose Cabinet Seats
Conservatives Overwhelmed
by Advocates of Lower
Tariff for the Dominion

OTTAWA, Dec. 6.-Returns received
tonight from to-day's general election
indicated the defeat Of the Meighen
government and landslide for The
Liberals, led by w. l.. Mackenzie King.
Seven members OF the Cabinet were de-
feated.
Premier Mcighen was beaten in his
home constituency, Portage La Prairie,
Man. His opponent was Harry Leader,
Progressive.
The chief plank in the Liberal plat
form is tariff reduction. The Meighen
government stood for high protection.
At II o'clock tonight Senator Rob-
ertson, Minister of Labor, conceded the
defeat OF the government.
Mr.. King, Liberal leader, was elected
in North York, Ont, division nor
T. A. Crerar, leader of the Progressive
party, was elected in Marquette, Man.
In the eastern part of the dominion
the Liberals made clean sweep,
Quebec, with sixty-fve members in
Parliament, will be represented entirely
by Liberals. Five of the seven defeated
Cabinet members were candidates in
Quebec constituencies.
Nova Scotia, with sixteen seats, gave
them all to Liberals, two members of
the government going down to defeat
in that province. Liberals were re-
ported elected in three out of four
Prince Edward Island divisions and in
six of the eleven constituencies in New
Brunswick.
In Ontario, the most populous of all
the provinces and long regarded as
safe for the government, the Meigheu
party retained only thirty eight of the
sixtytwo seats it held there.
Sufficient information was at hand
tonight to show that Mr.. King, Lib
eral chieftain, would have the largest
group in the next Parliament, and prob
ably clear majority over all parties
He will thus be called upon by the
Governor General to form a govern.

Clarence J. Shearn, special counsel of

of the B. f. T. were not as much open
to the criticism to which the Inter
