as the cotton is exported and sold
The Staple Cotton Cooperative as
sociation comprises within tits mem
bership many of the leading cotton
planters in the Delta District of the
Mississippi. In fact, the owners and
producers of 100000 bales of long
staple cotton, out of total average
yield of approximately 100000 bales,
have agreed to sell their cotton
through this organization. The action
of the corporation will enable the
association to market its cotton in
an orderly way during the current
cotton year without unduly forcing
sales.
If similar plan could be carried
out in connection with other types
of cotton, it would be helpful in re-
Eeving the situation. Properly financ-
ed, it would insure the orderly MARI
keting of the crop and make it UNI
necessary fer the producers to dump
on the market unduly large quantities
of distressed cotton within a short
period. But it would do more. 1t
would help the market so that the
consumers of cotton would perhaps
feel justified in replenishing their
stocks, which, in most cases, are much
lower than usual at this season of
the year.
The War Finance Corporation
stands ready to assist other organi-
cations, as well as cotton exporters
and banking institutions, in the same
way that it has assisted the Staple
Cotton Cooperative Association, pro
vlded the advances can be made upon
sound business basis and provided
also that the corporation may be
definitely assured that the advances
will be repaid from the proceeds of
export sales within a year.

place as fast as foreign markets will

The statement by Managing Di-

The advance of $5,O00,0O0 to the
Staple Cotton Cooperative Associa-
ton, of Memphis, approved recently
by thd War Finance Corporation,
MARKS the adoption of new policy
by the Directors of the Corporation.
The Corporation, which was directed
by the congress to resume operations
Tor the purpose of assisting in finan-
eng the expectation of domestic pro-
ducts by making advances to Ameri-
can exporters and American bankers,
has steadily broadened its policy in
order to meet the present emergen-
cy which exists in the marketing of
agricultural and other commodities.
AT first. advances were made to ex-
porters only on cotton actually ex-
ported under definite contracts of
sale, but later, following conferences
with cotton exporters and bankers
In Washington, New Orleans and
New York, the corporation announces
its readiness to consider applications
IN connection with the expectation
of cotton on any one of the three
following plans:
|. For prompt shipment against
deferred payments. |
For future shipments within al
reasonable time against either |
prompt or deferred payments, after
arrival in foreign countries where |
goods were under definite contract |
for sale; or
8. For prompt shipment to ware
houses in foreign distributing points
to be held there on account of the
American exporters and bankers for
out of warehouses.
The advance to hte Staple Cotton |
Cooperative Association carries these
plans a step farther. BY it's terms,
the association agrees that, out of

NOTED RUSSIAN PRINCESS
GIVES HISTORY OF
FORGED PROTOCOLS.

The "New York Times" today
prints the following article which
is appearing in the current issue
of the american Hebrew"
AT last, and for the first time,
it is possible to proclaim and
prove that the protocols of the
Wise Men of Zion, from begin
ming to end, are forgeries.
Proof of this came into pos
session of the American Hebrew
on Monday, February Fl.
"Since 1905, when the proto-
coils made their appearance over
the signature of the mysterious
Nilus, Jews and fair minded non
Jews the world over have sought
to prove them a mass of lies.
While. there has been circumstan-
tial evidence galore, direct evil
dence was lacking up to this time.
1T is Princess Radziwill, a
writer of note on matters Rus
sian and European and member
OF an old Russian family, who
furnished the direct evidence to
the American Hebrew.
by the greatest good fortune
it was learned that the Princess
was one of two persons who had
seen the manuscript of the Pro-
tocols before it was ready to be
sprung on Russia and the world.
She proved a most willing wit
ness, kindly, sympathetic and
eager.
"The Princess told her story
with certainty and without fear,
told it realizing its unparalleled
significance and Importance.

"The inner circle of Europe

intention of Abraham Lincoln. It
knew further that the great love
OF the American people and their
full confidence would give Lin
coin the power to consummate
his plan, and that the fulfllment
OF his plan would spell the down.
fall of Europe's capitalistic con-
troll of the world. So by the dark
inner council the death of Abra-
ham Lincoln was decreed. It was
an easy matter for it's hirelings to
incite the half-witted actor to
commit the actual deed.

forgery and the results that were
expected to follow it's publica-
ton.
"The Russian people, for whose
eyes the Protocols were manufac-
tured, consistently have refused
to accept them as other than they
are, forgeries, while strangely the
rest of Europe and America have
been duped by them.
"The Protocols of the Elders
of Zion had their beginning in
1884, many years before their
publication by Nilus. They were
created to serve a political pur-
pose, following the assassination
Of Gar Alexander II, and were
again dragged into the light for
the same ends in 1904.
Follows the remarkable direct
evidence of Princess Radziwill,
proving the Protocols to be TN
scrupulous lies:
After the assassination of
Alexander II, his son and success
sor the third Alexander, took very
much to heart the fact that the
murder of his father had been
planned and executed by Rus
slams belonging to the better
classes. Among them were such
Russian notables as Sophie Per-
owskaya and Je1iaboff.
"'The inner clique of the ultra
conservative party, however,
made every effort to convince
paramount. These bankers see
for themselves golden opportuni-
ties in the eventuality of split
that would divide strong, self
reliant deht-free republic into
two weak, pickering, money-bor-
rowing democracies, easy to be
exploited with the help of Jewish
financial jugglery. So they sent
adroit clandestine agents into the
field to bring about an open
breach between the North and
South by agitating both sides of
the slavery question. This ques-
ton had naturally a very strong
hold on the popular imagination,
and, using it as a leverage, the
hirelings of the Jew bankers
found it easy enough work to
raise the partisanship of the
American people to the pitch of:

THE CREDIT OF THE CITY.

This week the Sinking Fund COM
missioners of Wilmington disposed of
an issue OF s515.5O0 Sinking Fund
bonds. bearing interest at per cent,
at a premium of S57.6Ol.94. This is
in fine contrast, so far as figures go,
with the results of some other bond
ISSUES in recent times, although the
rate of interest for this latest issue
was considerably higher than that
offered by the issues which failed TO
attract a premium bid. but were sold
az discount.
This apparently flattering offer for a
good investment may be taken as an
indication that the financial credit of
the city is of fair standing, and that
II something worth while. But, de-
spite the cash gift the city will re-
ceive as a premium on this issue, the
annual interest payments of s25,77s
will devour this premium in a little
more than two years. after which
time the interest burden will become
a straight liability each year.
/ Probably one element that entered
into the attractiveness of this lates
offer was the desire OF many invest
ors. in these times of excessive an,
irritating income taxes, to put thei
money in non-taxable securities. Thii
makes a large difference.
Also, the recent transaction may no
figure so largely as financial ac
complishment. The records will shoy
