MORE COTTON SENT
CZECHO-SLOVAKIA
Southern Farmers Ship 5000
Bales-Lar9er Lots to Be
Forwarded Regularly.

With their first shipment Of 5000
bales of low grade cotton we'll through
the mills OF Czecho-S -SlovalHa and most
OF 1t already manufactured into print
cloth, a group Of Southern farmers who
took the bull by the horns when cotton
slumped and organized their own export
association announced yesterday that
the second Shipment OF 5000 bales to
Czecho- -Slovakia had just cleared Gulf
mort Miss. from which the first one
was sent. and that additional shipments
would be sent 20 that country at the
rate of 10000 bales of low grade cotton
q month
A. NJ Friend, president of the Bleecker
Export and Trading Company, is the
New York represen tative of the Missis-
sippi Delta Export and Trading Com
pany, which is the name chosen by the
farmers who desired to sell their low
grade cotton abroad and who formed
the 100000 corporation of that name
soon after the wave of liquidation struck
the cotton market. Mr.. Friend said
yesterday that the company's export
machinery was working smoothly and
that cotton was being put into mills
which for more than five years have
been idle, due to the inability TO get
the raw materials.
The first step Of the farmers who
found themselves with a great amount OF
low grade cotton on hand which they
could not sell except for sacrifice prices
In this country was to finance the
scheme through the Federal Foreign
Bank Corporation Of New York and the
International Banking Corporation OF
New Orleans. The corporation under
took Just one thing--to ship. insure and
get the cotton to it's destination as
agents for the farmers.
Agents were sent to Europe and they
reported that the mills OF Czecho- -Slovakta
would take the cotton on a toll basis.
Two proposals were offered the mills: :
one to take a part of the cotton shipped
over for manufacture into cloth in ex-
change for the work of the mill. which
most of them accepted, and on which
basis they are working. The other was
to receive cash payment for the work
after the finished cloth had been sold.
The corporations Hamburg agents have
contracted to take on that basis about
$4,000 bales, and practically that amount
has been pledged by farmers who have
raised the crop. There is no guaran-
tee of the price that the planters will
receive. but estimates are made on a
minimum basis of 20 cents a pound. with
a prospect of a higher price.
Mr.. Friend said that the manufac-
tured product. mostly coarse print cloth.
was being sold in Manchester for reship-
ment to the Far East

Things Sensational.

Perhaps it is not to be wondered
at in this age of newspapers that
public depending upon the press for
its thrills should insist upon pub
LEGATION of all the details of sensa-
tional murders. There is so little
to be gained from knowledge of such
details. They do not teach us how
better to order our lives nor do they
make our mental comfort more Sc
cure. We say to ourselves "Ah,
and oh" and Dear me" and then
feel somewhat nauseated about it
all.
The bare fact that murderers and
other criminals are made to pay
penalties for their crimes may be
considered to show ns many things
about the wages of sin. But the
bare facts can he stated in few
words while the details we abhor
run along, too often, for column af-
ter column.
Why don't the papers reform?
Some one is sure to ask. And the
answer is, OF course, that many pa
pers do not handle murders at all,
that others hold strictly to essential
facts and that it is the public, not
the management, which determines
the policy of the remainder.
1t is the public which insists on
the salacious novel and naughty
movie, though once aroused to its
tendency, the public has, i'm the
case Of moving pictures, prevailed
upon the producers to amend their
ways; OF perhaps we should say
that the producers, anxiously wait
ing, were finally given license to cut
out the improper part of productions.
Just so with the press. When
people do not cry for the stories of
crime and vice, newspapers will be
able to give what better newspaper
men have always wanted to give, a
paper that will inform and educate
and improve and never exert a de-
grading influence.

GO WORK.

Many people are of the opinion that that the new
administration is in office and it's views are fairly well
known, there should be further delay the revival Of
business throughout the country
Every change of administration brings its period of
doubt and uncertainty. The moneyed interests do not
know just how far it is safe 60 hence they set the
brakes and mark time by temporary crtailment of
penditures. This produces natural slump in business
that is designated by some as hard times.
Mr.. Harding has indicated that he desires conserva
tive but progressive administrations free from changing
foreign alliances, and with the protection that should be
afforded legitimate business interests i'll every section Of
the country.
1t is time for big business to get down to the steady
grind again. and for little business to hit the same pace

Origin of Yankee Doodle.

The origin of Yankee Doodle" is
involved in obseurity but it is said
that the song was introduced by the
British troops about the beginning
of the American revolution, says the
Detroit News. While the British
were in the city of Boston in the
summer of ITS some rhymer
among them wrote a poem in deri-
sion of the dress equipment etc. of
the New England troops, or yam
KEGS" That was the original Cyan
kee Doodle" song. The authorship
is generally aseribed to DR.. Richard
Shuckburg, a British surgeon and
wit.
DR.. Edward Everett Hale has at
tributed the present version of
Yankee Doodle" to Edward Bangs,
who graduated from Harvard in
1877. The tune has been attri-
buted to various countries and even
carried back to the church of the
middle ages, but most likely it had
its origin in England.
