price Of cotton advanced to new high
levels. The opinion here is that the
cotton market has seen it's low level
for the season. and that better prices
may be looked for after the govern

mentary report on cotton yet to be
ginned are made public.
There is a general belief that there
will be no rail strike, but Atlanta has
organized emergency committees to
act If tie-up eventually comes.
Heavy newspaper advertising of bar

larger retail stores.
Damage to cotton by the boil wee

ST. LOUIS, October 21.-The pros
pect of a railroad strike has not
caused CONSERVATION here, but it is the
subject of more or less concern, and
preparations for possible tie-up have
stimulated some lines of business.
Merchants do not expect a strike, and
some of the railroad men say they
will not leave their jobs. AS a pre-
caution, iron and steel companies have
been urged to expedite production on
contract work. Five furnaces have
been blown in in this district. and the
trade has been advised that three or
four additional plants have resumed
in Birmingham.
Coal and coke are now moving in
large volume in anticipation of a pos
sible strike. and public utility COM
panies, hospitals, schools and churches
are putting in large supplies.
Jobbers state that the buying policy
of retail merchants continues to be
conservative. Purchases are large and
diversified, but are adjusted to the
immediate demand. General condi-
tions of trade and commerce show no
decided change, but in the main indi-
cate advancement toward normal ad-
justment.

sage reflected the view among mem
bers of the Irish republican parlia-
ment, with whom he had consulted,
that the governments proposals fur
nished the basis for a possible settle
ment.
1t was assumed, however, that he
asked for more explicit explanation
as to certain details before the Brit
ish proposals should be submitted to
the Irish republican parliament next
Tuesday.
Relieve Strained Relations
1t was suggested that the hurried
return of the prime minister from
Paris was prompted by a recognition
of the fact that the short interval be-
fore the meeting of the Irish repub-
lican parliament made it desirable
that Mr.. De Valera have the govern
ment's considered response as long as
possible before the meeting of the
Dahl Eireann.
Some political correspondents sur
missed that Lloyd George welcomed the
opportune arrival of the Irish com
munication as an excuse to escape
from the critical atmosphere of Paris,
possibly hoping that brief Interrupt
ton might relax the strain to which
the relations between Great Britain
and France have been subjected at
the present meeting of the supreme
allied council.

Cast Eyes Years Ahead.
The Democratic leaders have their
eyes not merely on the congressional
elections of next year, but on the next
presidential election and on all cleo.
tons for decade to come. About the
future the Democrats show increasing
confidence. They have pulled the af
fairs of their national committee into
better shape, and are doing aggressive
work. They have raised money and
have come more near to paying their
debts than the Republican national
committee has.
