WANT JUDGE REMOVED
Petition Circulated to Do Away With
 Bowie County Court.

Texarkana, May 12.-A petition is being circulated in Bowie county (Texas) and is said to be receiving many signatures, asking the legisla- ture to abolish the Bowie county criminal district court, over which Judge P. A. Turner of Texarkana has been presiding since it's organization few years ago. It is said that the motive is desire to Oust Judge Tur- ner because of the fact that in the election for removal of the county seat from Boston to Texarkana, few years ago, Judge Turner was a strong work CT for Texarkana. It is said the petl- tion is getting most of it's signatures in the west end of the county, where there is strong feeling against Texar- kama because of the effort to move the county seat there.
 It is said that Judge Turner and all his friends favor doing away with the office, but only on condition that Bowie county be made separate dis trict with one court to look after both criminal and civil business. At pre- sent the district is composed Of Bowie and Cass counties. Judge Carney Of Cass county is district judge and tries both criminal and civil cases in Cass county, and all civil business in Bowie county. Judge Turner has jurisdic- tion only of criminal cases in Bowie county.

It was ex- | pected that very considerable advanc- es to exporters or to banks that are 1 financing exporters would be made i availyable from the War Finance Cor 1 poration under this arrangement with 1 corresponding relief to Southern cot | ton spot markets and Southern bank l ing institutions.
 The committee also discussed the 1 question of sales on credit to EurO- peaE countries in order that they may | be able to buy more American pro- ducts than they now are able to buy for cash. On this question the meet
 ing had the benefit of consultation
 with important New York bankers
 specializing in foreign trade. Assur-
 ances of strong cooperation were giv-

 present at the meeting. No formal
 plan of syndicate cooperation was
 adopted or considered necessary, but
 it was agreed that this cooperation
 will be forthcoming when concreate
 export preparations are ready for con-
