Dublin, Sept. 9.-According to ru- mors current in Dublin today, Ramon DeValera, president of the Irish re- public, does not wish to be one of the plenipotentiaries appointed to confer with the British cabinet committee at Inverness, should the Sim Fein ac- eept the offer of Premier Lloyd George for further parleys.
 DeValera is said to be willing to let Arthur Griffith, some times called the "brains" of the Sim Fein, have absolute charge of further negotia- tions with the British cabinet.
 No special meeting of the Sim Fein cabinet has been called to con- slider the newest peace note from Lloyd George, but cabinet members are believed to be considering it in- formally preparatory to an early meet ing.

COTTON PRICE
 R[CA|NSL0SS
 0F YESTERDAY

Yesterdays sharp decline in cotton was fully wiped out by a sweeping ad- vance today, averaging about S6.25 a bale, and bringing quotations to within 200 points of the maximum advance momentarily touched on Wednesday.
 The opening was at gains of 90 points or more, and while there were reactions throughout the day, the trend was strongly upward, and closing figures were within few points of the days highest. That the sharply higher prices prevailing the past week have not curtailed mill consumption was shown by continued large in creases in spinner's takings.
 New York October contracts closed this afternoon 125 points net higher at 1855 cents, and December 118 points up at 1883 cents. New Or leans October registered a net gain of 130 points, closing at 1925 cents, and December was 124 points net high CT at 19.49 cents.
 Spots in New York were advanced 115 points to 1880 cents and in New Orleans spots were marked up an even 100 points to 19 cents.
 Spinner's takings for the week end ing today were announced at 192,O75 bales, compared with Al .695 bales the same week last year and 111,515 bales the same week in 1919. Since August 1 spinners' takings total 1904 ,00O, compared with S42,000 bales for the same period last year and 974,000 the same period in 1919
 Receipts on the local market are gradually increasing, considerable sprinkling of new cotton appearing along with bales of the 1920 crop. Conway prices were higher today than New York quotations, strict middling cotton of 1 1-16 inch staple bringing 21 cents pound and slightly better A few bales of low grade cotton were sold at IF to IS cents.
 The price of cottonseed was ad- vanced on the local market today when the Conway Cotton Oil & Cir Company announced an increase ot $3 per ton to S25. This is the high est price for the season and for the year.

have been made for higher pay and
more force. 1t is matter Of common
knowledge that the school congestion
of the present is in part due to the
fact that the municipal architects Of.
fee has been unable to do the work
assigned to 1t by the appropriation
bills. And the conditions in the archi.
tect's Office are typical OF those in
every other branch Of the District gov
ernment. The fact is that the District
municipality is undermanned as we'll
as underpaid in every department.
The wonder is that the local govern.
ment work is done as we'll as it is.
AS for the employment Of private
architects. it is simply a question Of
whether the school buildings will be
ready in time Or not. II there is any
doubt at all about the legality Of the
procedure 1t should be settled imme.
diately. If the District government
cannot employ outside talent for this
purpose an emergency bill must be
rushed through Congress giving it
authority or else enlarging the appro-
priation for the municipal architects
Office. II these buildings are to be ready
for the school year Of 1929. And if
they are not ready then conditions in
the public schools of the District in
September. 1922, will be bad. probably
without parallel in the United States.

Beware Of the Extremists.

Are not the extremists too busy and
emphatic these days to be convincing?
Take the pessimists. The situation
cannot be as bad as they describe. If
1t were. 1t would be hopeless. No avail.
able means would be sufficient to pull
us out Of so deep a hole. A receiver.
ship for the government would be the
only sensible step; and the sooner that
were taken the better.
Take the optimists. They respond
with an effort to pooh-pooh all
anxiety. Who's afraid? There is moth.
ing much awry, and what is awry can
easily be Strengthened out. The war
upset things. yes. But when did war
fail to upset things? 1t is feature of
war. Calm yourselves. Take matters
coolly. Shipshape is just ahead. and
we are approaching it rapidly.
As usual. the truth lies between.
Our situation is not to be appraised
as either hopeless or easy of relief.
The times are tight and difficult The
war.upset is the worst ever, because
it is universal. The war shook the
world. We cannot hope to recover
much In advance of the world at large.
Our fortunes rest somewhat on the for.
tunes of other nations. AS they re.
cover, we shall recover.
And we shall recover. When have
we failed to meet difficult situation?
We have met few. and emerged from
each the stronger for the experience.
The present situation, let us frankly
confess, is the greatest we have ever
faced; but it does not. and should not,

japan at the Conference.

Japan's silence on the subject OF far
eastern questions in a note accepting
President Harding's invitation to the
conference on disarmament does not
signify particularly inasmuch as the
invitation itself was informal and
probably did not explicitly detail the
subjects proposed for consideration.
These "acceptances" are. in fact.
strictly indications of the willingness
Of the powers to participate in meet
ing. The program itself remains to
be written.
In any case. every power that at
tends the disarmament meeting must
come prepared to consider the ques-
ton from all angles. Disarmament
means, if anything. the allaying OF in
ternational prejudices and jealousies
and fears. President Harding has in
dicated by the inclusion of China
among the conferees that In his judg-
ment the far east presents more def
nitely the possibilities of conflict and
consequently is more distinctly the
cause of competitive armament than
any other area Of the world. 1t re.
quires no especially intimate knowl.
edge of international affairs to dis
Germ this condition.
When the powers through their rep
resentatives reach Washington next
autumn doubtless the program will
have been loudly outlined and each
government will know the scope pro.
posed Japan will come possibly pre-
pared to demur to the consideration Of
any question outside Of that OF dis
armament But this position would be
most unfortunate for Japan. The gov
ernment at Toxic could hardly afford
to enter a discussion with reserva-
tions, expressed or implied, inasmuch
as the whole subject of disarmament
turns and is we'll known to turn large
iy upon Japan's aspirations and fears
and projects.
The chief benefit of this conference.
1t would seem. will consist in a full.
open discussion Of the relations Of the
powers in that area which is so plainly
indicated as the possible cause Of trou-
BILE between them. If, there is the
potentiality of war In the Pacific any
reticence on the subject by one Of the
powers may have the effect Of alien
ating it from international associa-
tions, past. present and future.

"Wipers" Let It Be.

If you are thinking Of buying a new
French dictionary. do not be reckless
or hasty. BY waiting till 1854 you
will be able to get the latest. The
work Of preparing the new edition is
progressing so nicely that the pub
fishers feel justified in stating that
the book will be out in about forty
three years. 1t IL claimed that this
will be the most perfect dictionary of
the language ever issued. All slang
will be eliminated except that grow
ing out of the late war. 1t is felt that
a retention Of some words and pro-
nunciations introduced by the Eng
disappearing soldiers are essential to
a recognition Of tho service of these
defenders.
This is very gratifying. For exam
pie, there is the city Of Ypres. The
people have always pronounced the
name as II 1t were spelled "Eper." But
not the Yankee soldiers. AS they
marched to its defense they called 1t
''Wipers," and "Wipers'' it became. The
people there are still fighting against
''Wipers." It may be necessary for
them to do as did the people of the
state Of Arkansas many years ago.
The pronunciation was the cause Of

pronunciation Of the name of this
state is as If it were spelled "Arkan-

The Coming Senate Battle.

AS eight years ago. the real tussle
over tariff revision will be staged in
the Senate. The House rules are never
favorable to protracted debate. Com.
plant is sometimes made that they
are not favorable even to adequate

seldom denied. AS a consequence, in

How long the Fordney bill, when it
reaches the Senate, will be held under
review by the finance committee is
but a guess. Something will depend
on the points made in the House de.

result when the House has recorded
its final vote on the measure.
But attention will be fixed when
the measure is reported out Of the
committee. and is taken up with the
committees amendments by the Sen.
ate for discussion and passage.
The men who will lead are Mr.. Pen.

The democrats are convinced anti.

1t has been proposed to turn over
the present Business High School to

former. In the same way it has been
suggested to turn over the present

advocates is willing to hand over the
discarded building to the other school.
But that is not the way to settle this
question or to provide adequately for
present and future school needs. Obvi-
ously Business High School cannot be
enlarged. Possibly Tech High School
can be. The present Business High

According to reports that come from

ried to aliens abroad are being detained
at Ellis Island as aliens and conse-

recently enacted law restricting immi-

woman who marries foreigner loses
her citizenship. This is an anomaly at

changed that woman born IN this
country should not lose her citizenship
save on the same grounds that a man
loses his.

Architects and School Buildings.

ANONYMOUS Su0 SC000l 0ullQl0&S.
Great surprise has been expressed
by members Of the House District
committee on the score Of the made.
quate salaries paid to the municipal
architect and his STAFF at the District
building. This revelation came in the
course Of hearing at which the sub
ject are the employment Of private
architects for the construction Of some
of the school buildings newly provided
for. Doubt had been expressed as to
the propriety Of engaging such serv.
ices. The explanation given to the
committee was STRAIGHTFORWARD and
clear. The municipal architects ONCE
is underpaid, undermined and choked
with work. It cannot possibly handle
this big job Of erecting 100000

add them to the public school equip.

necessary, If the buildings are to be
available for the opening Of school in

There should have been no surprise

force engaged in the office Of the
municipal architect. The District ap-

The Virginia Republicans.

In putting state ticket in the field
on a declaration Of party principles
the Virginia republicans have taken
the proper step. Presumably, they
will make a thorough campaign. and
set before the voters Of the state the
issues Of the day. local and national.
This accords with some recent pro-
nouncements as to republican needs
in the south. The party in that sec.
ton should. it is conceded, get a move
on. For years it has shown small in
terest in local affairs, and only a
periodical interest in national affairs.
Only the approach Of a presidential
campaign has caused a stir in repub.
lican political circles in the lower
southern states.
Whether much or little is possible,
whatever can be should be done. Or.
ganizations. city. county. state and ma.
tional, wherever lacking should be
established. Wherever existing, they
should be strengthened and exercised.
All should be done under native
leadership; and such leadership is
available everywhere. 1t has worked
wonders in Maryland, West Virginia,
Delaware, Missouri and Kentucky, and
it added Tennessee to the republican
column last year.
Virginia has long been democratic
stronghold. and last year withstood
the republican avalanche. The demo.
Gratis have maintained, and now pos.
sess, an efficient organization and the
republicans will be bucking a line
familiar with victory, and that has
not known defeat since Mahone's day,
now forty years ago.
