MRS. smith WILL
SERVE ON BOARD
ELECTION Is TOMORROW
Prominent Woman Consents to Accept
Position as Director of Con-
way District.

Mrs. S. G. Smith will have the dis
tinction of being the first woman in
Conway and one of the first in Arkan-
sas to hold membership upon a school
board. At the same time the school
district of Conway will be fortunate
in securing as one Of its directors one
OF the city's noblest women.
After giving the matter mature
thought, Mrs. Smith today gave her
consent for her name to 60 upon the
ballot at tOmorrow's school election
as candidate for director. On &C.
count Of many other duties she was
reluctant to do so, but said she ear
nestly felt that women should be in
cluded in the boards membership and
that if she declined when called upon
to serve she could not consistently
urge the election of other women. To
the Log Cabin Democrat this after
noon she said she desired and expect
ed to receive the cooperation of all
the women Of the district in the per-
formance of her duties.
Following the suggestion of Mrs.
Smith for director, as made by the
Log Cabin Democrat a few days ago,
many have Joined in urging her to &C
cept. The Conway Shakespeare Club
at meeting yesterday afternoon I'M
animously adopted resolution en-
dorsing her for the place. The Con-
way News in its edition of yesterday
also strongly supported Mrs. Smith
for the place.
For the other place, DR.. l. N. Nc
Collum, who has efficiently served for
the past three years, will be reelected
without opposition. The retiring di-
rector is w. B. Clayton, secretary of
the board, who has been one of its
most active and valuable members.
At tomorrow's election Prof. A. J.
Meadors will be elected as member
of the county board of education, sue
ceeding J. H. Hall, who declined to
become a candidate again. The rate
of taxation will also be voted. AS
even that amount is insufficient to
maintain the school, it is anticipated
that the maximum 12-mill rate will
be levied practically without opposi-
ton.

SATURDAY, MAY 7, 1921.
OVER SPECULATION.


Charges of over-speculation and
price depression made against grain
exchanges by farmers organizers are
vigorously denied in the report cover
ing an investigation of several months
and submitted by the board Of direc-
tors to President Joseph P. Griffin
of the Chicago Board of Trade.
The report, which is causing wide
discussion among economic experts,
answers all questions stressed by OPP
ponents of the exchanges. Sharp ex-
ception is taken to charges that specu-
lation caused price slumps in grain
during the last nine months when
Americas huge crop met competition
from big foreign crops at a time when
commodity values the world over were
shrinking.
The committee, comprising directors
Of the Association interested in va
rious phases of cash and futures grain
marketing, recommended that in fur
Their applying the rules to eliminate
any possible evils that the board dis
allow deferred acceptance contracts,
extension of credit by commission
houses TO clients trading for other
than hedging purposes, and elimina-
ton Of private wires to towns of less
than $4,000, except under supervision
of a board member. Strictest censor
ship of market news also was recon-
mended
THE belief that the grain markets
can be manipulated downward, that
short selling can successfully and
permanently reduce prices, is enron
eous," says the report. ut is based
on lack of knowledge of the market
and of economic laws. Should the
short seller offer grain below it's leg
itimate value the worlds buyers would
flock to the market with orders. The
short seller would be at the mercy of
buyers when he came to buy pack. In
reality short selling is a stabilizing in
flhence, for each short seller creates a
buyer of himself.
1.-The futures market, the basis of
which is organized speculation and
upon which is built the entire hedging
system of price insurance, moves our
surplus grain crops with greater econ
Onmy and efficiency than would be pos
sible by any other method. Realizing
the great economic service which is
thus performed by organized specula
ton, we cannot consider recommends
tions for restrictions which would
hamper hedging facilities and destroy
the economic usefulness of the mar
ket"
