to soldiers, were still ringing in the
ears of hundreds Of surviving heroes
Of the civil war tonight. Shortly be-
fore shutdown the rear ranks OF the
Grand Army of the Republic passed
the reviewing stand Of Chief in Com
mand william A. Ketcham, bringing
to a close the annual parade and the
most spectacular event Of the fifty
| fifth encampment.
/ Through streets packed solid with
flag waving, shouting citizens, the
Grand Army paraded arousing as
much patriotic enthusiasm as il it
were. an army on its way to war. To-
night they were weary and sought the
benches and rest places provided for
them through the downtown district
but as they hiked along today the
vets marched jauntily, tramping in
step with the music Of war drums
and flies.
Hundreds of automobiles were ready
to carry vets who might be unable
to march but there were few who
made use Of machines unless they
were totally disabled.
The cheering started with the APP
proach Of the old guard at the head
of the column. These vets, mustered
from Columbus and Newark, Ohio,
marched with equipment and rifles,
keeping perfect alignment and orderly
files. The Purdue University band
followed the old guard and swung
into place along side the reviewing
stand. Then came the vets in six
divisions. Illinois. Pennsylvania, Wis
consin, and Ohio comprised the first
division, New York, Connecticut,
Massachusetts, New Jersey, Maine,
California, Nevada, New Hampshire
and Rhode Island, the second; the
Potomac, Virginia, Vermont, North
Carolina, Maryland, Nebraska, Mich

zona, Georgia, South Carolina, North
Dakota, Oklahoma, and Indiana, the
fourth. The fifth division was COM
posed Of Spanish American and World
War vets and in the sixth division
were the disabled vets IN automobiles
Preceding the parade the G. A R.
delegates met in business and passed
a resolution condemning the Ku-Klux-
Khan. The Sons of Veterans passed
similar resolution.
whatever may be it's purposes,
said the @. A. r. resolution, regard
ing the Khan, 1--WE believe its methods
are un-American and that its exist
ence is a standing menace to con-
stituted government and to the open
and impartial administration Of the
law"
The @. A. r. win meet again tomor-
row to elect officers and select the
city for the next encampment. Des-
AIoines, Iowa, and Milwaukee are
seeking the meeting for next year.
Affiliated organizations viii also hold |
sessions tomorrow.

(By Tho Associated Press1

WASHINGTON, Sept. 28-Marked
weevil activity and unseasona.bly
warm weather continued to hamper
the gowth of the cotton crop during

the weekly crop review of the national

while general deterioration occurred
in the northwestern portion of the belt
and very poor progress was reported
in Texas"
Cotton bo1ls, however, continued to
open very rapidly in all sections and
picking and ginning made good pro-
gress, the bulletin added.
The crop was reported fairly good"
in parts Of eastern and southern
North Carolina, Tennessee, locally in
northern Alabama, some northern and
eastern counties in Arkansas, north
ern and west Oklahoma, and in few
sections of Texas, chiefly in the west
ern belt Elsewhere, said the bulletin.

Picking is Wen advanced In Texas
and about completed in much of the
central and southern parts of the
state. Practically all cotton has been
gathered also in the southern half of
Georgia, most sections of Florida, and
in many localities OF southern Ala
bama.
weevil was reported spreading to-
ward the northeastern limits of the
belt.
Corn matured nicely in the south
ern districts, and cutting progressed,
said the review. Rain, however. was
said to be needed for late corn in
the southeast while drying weather.

LABOR UNREST IN BRITAIN
General Idea That Wage Struggle on
Large Scale is About to
Be lnaugurated

All signs point to the collery indus
try as the first which will be engaged
Ia a wage struggle on a large scale,
IN the British Isles. There Will be
new development soon following
upon the detailed Inquiries by both
parties in the wage negotiations to dis
cover what the general body of both
owners and miners desire.
In the meetings ia tile various coal
fields, the miners have declared for II
new standard wage, enhodying nearly
all present earnings, while the owners
declare thot. unless wages are sub
suntiaIiy reduced. many collierIes must
close. The attitude of the miners wilI
be decided ut d coming national con-
ference and III the subsequent re-
newed negotiations a decisive stage
will be reached a struggle is regard
ed as almost certain, and the fact that
many eolliery owners, especially In
South Wales, are giving notice to
terminate contracts In fourteen days
90 that thereafter the mines may be
closed at one days notice. is regarded
as an ominous portent.
