VIRGINIA WOOLEN POOL
SELLS27,OOOLBS.
AT Is CENTS

The Loudoun county, Va. wool pool
of 27.000 pounds of sheep fleece has
just been sold IL Baltimore firm
at about 25 cents a pound. The
wool was pooled by the farmers
In all sections OF Ioudoun county
with a view OF holding 1t for a
fancy price, and the pooling at
tracted considerable attention in
the wool trade. 1t is understood
that at one time an offer OF 10
cents a pound was refused in the
hope of getting still higher figure.
When the price OF wool began to
decline below the figure it cost the
poolers to raise it, an attempt was
made to work out a plan to man
ufacture blankets and cloth. but
this fell through and 25 cents a
pound was reluctantly accepted.
There is much discomfort among
the poolers over the failure of the
coup.

Washington, D. c., JAN, "a pub
lie and solemn engagement among
the great powers not to violate or
to permit the violation of the territor-
ial integrity upf Russia is regarded by
President Wilson as the sine qua non
of an attempt at the qualification of
Armenia and other states bordering
on the former empire. His views are
given in a noto transmitted to Faul
Hymans, president of the league of
nations assembly by Acting Secretary
Davis, made public tonight
The "distrcssful situation" of Ar
mcnia invaded by both the Turkish
nationalsts and soviets is only one
detail of the Russian problem the
president says and he urges his con-
comprehensive treatment of the prob
lem, "only by full cooperation of the
principal powers" that a hopeful ap-
proach to the pacification and indie
pendence of Armenia can be found.
The president says he has never be-
lieved that the problems raised by the
Bolsheviki coup could be solved by
outside military actions and he ex-
presses the hope that the tragical
events on the Polish front and in the
Crimea have convinced the world that
armed invasion is not the way to bring
peace to Russia
Mr.. Wilson adds that these events
have only strengthened his conviction
that the Russian revolution must be
developed to n satisfactory conclusion
by the Russians with such help as may
be voluntarily received"
The problem he says is one OF rcla-
tions between Central Russia and sur
rounding smaller national groups. Bit
ter and mutual distrust, he states, is
tho cause OF the unrest and instability
along the border: the struggling new
nationalities are afraid to disarm and
return to peace because they distrust
the Bolsheviki while the sovicts con-
tend that they are afraid to denobilize
fearing new attacks.
Mr.. Wilson expresses the opinion
that the present offers a peculiarly
pressing challenge" to an attempt at
general pacification on the Russian
borders along the lines of a clear dis
tinction between offense and defense.
Such an attempt seems to the presi-
dent to be tho only logical develop
ment of the request to mediate in the
Armenian conflict It is obvious that

TEXAS GOVERNOR
ABOLISHES PARDONS

Austin, Texas, Jan. 22-Govcrnor
Pat NJ. Neff today abolished the board
of pardon advisers and asked for tho
resignation of the members. He also
announced that applications for places
on that board were useless and none
would be considered.
In a letter addressed to the board.
the governor said that too freely
granting pardons "weakeus the law
and makes its enforcement a farce
The constantly growing tendency
that makes easy the securing of par
dons is one of the several things that
are encouraging violations of the law
he said.
Until further notice is given, no ap-
plication for a pardon will be consid-
cred, Governor Neff said, unless tho
judge of tho district court from which
the applicant WAS sentenced states to
him officially certain reasons why
pardon should be granted to tho ap-
plicant.

MORE SHIPPING
BOARD STATEMENT

washington. Jan. "a statement
giving hiseversion OF certain incidents
in dispute before the Walsh committee
investigating the shipping board, es-
pecially in relation to the testimony OF
Colonel Abadie. former comptroller
general OF the shipping board con-
cerninE auditing was made here last
night by secretary of the interior,
Payne. Tho latter was chairman of
the board at the timo the incidents IN
dispute occurred.
Tho statement follows: Colonel
Abadie presented to me written
statement (probably in February.
1920 recommending that tho books OF
tho Bethlehem ShipbuildinS corpora
ton be audited. At that time Colonel
Abadie was general comptroller in
charge of the accounting for tho ship
ping board and had approximately
900 men on his payroll i Immediate
'ly issued an order directing that the
audit be made, assuming that Colonel
Ahadie would have the audit made by
his own accountants
In a few days 1 was informed by
the treasurer that Colonel Abadie had
made contract with Perley Morse
and company to do this auditing and
that the expense would likely be In
the neiEhborhood OF $4,000. ] i'm
mediately telegraphed Pearley Morse
and company not to proceed and di-
rected Colonel Abadie to mako tho
audit with his own force.
This resulted in an interview be-
tween Pcrley Morse and myself and
Colonel Abadic and after giving con-
sideratiou to the matter 1 decided,
Notwithstanding the cost, IL would be
wise to permit Morse to proceed with
the audit. Charges meantime were
preferred against Morse by the Beth
lehem people and a hearing was had.
This was participated in by Commits
sioncr Stevens, Donald. Scott and my
self Tho result was that VIC declined
to interfere with Morse and directed
him to ,roceed with tho audit.
THE Bethlehem people then de-
clinod to permit Morse to have access
to their books. When this came to
my knowledge / notified tho Bethle-
hem company that they must submit
the books to Morse for audit and that
we would charge tho company for all
the expense occasioned by their re-
fusal.
Morse and his men were meantime
idle 1t was this e1tanso that in
sisted should be charged against the
Bethlehem company.
This WAS the status of the case
when 1 left the shipping board.
The voucher to which Colonel
Abadie refers S2e0.0oo) for personal
expenses in October. 1918. of an officer
atom was not called to my attention
and did not figure in any of tho pro-
ccedings with reference to the audit.
There was n general statement
made that large sums had been In
cluded in the expense items which wcrc
