treasury department to Supnlt al
itemiZed statement, showing detaldeu
expenditures under the SIoV3Uoo'Uo ~
speciaI war funds, set aside Tor use
by the president. Such q statement

mately S23,OO0,00O had been carried

The president sent to the house
a letter from the secretary or the
treasury saying:
"In view of the fact that the dis
bursements represent for the most
part advances of funds for disburs-
ing officers upon accountable war
rants, it cannot be said that the flg-
ures are final or that they neces-
sarily represent actual expenditures

lures out of funds advanced On &C

accounts of the disbursing officers
concerned The auditor for the state
and other departments who examines
the accounts of the disbursing of
ficers concerned advises that it will
take about three months to complete
the examination"

to the peace mission, was allotted
S150,000 for expenses.
The shipping board was allotted
s27 100000 for purchase and repair
Of German and Austrian vessels.
The treasury said in it's letter ac-
companying the report that the prin-
cipal accounts of the war appropria-
tions were in number of cases re-
imbursed in whole or in part and
that the amounts of allotments so
restored were available for reallot-
ment In this way each account OPP
Grated after the manner Of re-
volving fund. Allotments exceeded
the total appropriation but actual
disbursements were less.

FORMER DETECTIVE
IN MACON SUES CITY
FOR Loss Of HIS JOB

MACON, Ga, March 10-Suit for
$8,467.5O against the city of Macon
was filed in the superior court Tues
day afternoon by J. E. Bunch. for
mer city detective, through his at
torney, Judge Charles L. Bartlett.
The suit is the result of the city re-
fusing to reinstate him as a city de-
tective after w. o. Swift, also former
city detective, was acquitted of muir
dering Phillip Lamar, who, with
Abram Kimbrell was killed in Bobo's
store in south Macon, two years ago.
Bunch alleges the city is due him
$2,822.50 for back salary and $5,645
for damages done to him by the re-
fusal to reinstate him as city detec-
tive. He alleges that he was appoint
ed a member of the Macon police
force and sworn in by the civil serv-
ice commission which at that time
had jurisdiction over the police and
fire departments of the city, and that
he was never guilty of any miscon-
duct and has never been notified that
any charges had been preferred
against him.
Bunch claims that a man cannot
be dismissed or dropped from the
payroll unless he has been given
hearing.
Bunch was indicted with accessory
murder at the same time indictments
were returned against L. S. McLen-
don, L. K. Stevens, w. C. Evans, c.
G. STRIPPING and w. o. Swift. All
were city detectives and Swift was
indicted as principal. He was con-
victed, given a new trial and ac-
quilted. He and Bunch then applied
to the city for their former positions,
which were not given them. 1t is
said that McLendon and Swift prob
ably will file similar suits against the
CITY within a short time

HOOVER IS MEETING
OPPOSITION To HIS
|. DEPARTMENT PLANS

WASHINGTON, March 1O-Her-
bert Hoover is meeting opposition
in his plans for the reorganiza ton
Of the department of commerce. AL
ready he has encountered obstacles
in two sources-in congress and in
the other government departments.
This is one explanation. it was
learned today, of Secretary Hoover's
delay in formally announcing his
proposed reorganization and although
a statement of his plans is expected
this week it will be minus several of
his original propositions.
Mr.. Hoover had hoped, at first,
that he could revamp his department
without new legislation. He discov-
cred this was impossible. AS each
government department is a creature
Of congress, congrt ssional action is
necessary before its functions, can
be changed and the conflicts in de-
partment activities eliminated. New
appropriation also would be neces-
sary, under Hoover's plan, and would
n. eet opposition in congress, it was
stated at the capital today.
Some congressman, on the plea Of
economy, are opposed 20 granting
MIR. Hoover the increased appropria-
ton he would ask. Others are
against any effort to eliminate from
other departments certain bureaus
which Mr.. Hoover contends should
be under the commerce department.
Mr.. Hoover's plans, it is learned
were discussed at the cabinet meet
ing Tuesday. 1t developed then that
Mr.. Hoover'S greatest obstacle lies
in the reluctance of the various de-
partments to relinquish any of their
present powers.
Mr.. Hoover believes the depart
ment Of commerce should supervise
government activities which relate to
commerce. But the consular service
is under the state department and
agreement has not yet been reached
on method by which this overlap
ping of activity can be avoided, with
satisfaction to both departments.
The bureau of standards, in the
commerce department, performs many
functions which also come under the
bureau of markets, in the depart
ment of agriculture. The latter de-
partment is loath to make a change.
The treasury department is opposed
to Hoover's desire that certain func-
tions of the customs service be
transferred to his department.
These are but few instances Of
the conflicts which Hoover has en-
couEtcred in his reorganization PLAZA

Three Cardinals
Are Indicted Into
Office With Pomp

ROME, March 1O.-Secular and &C.
classical Rome today turned it's foot
steps and thoughts to the Vatican,
where three candidates were for
mally received into the sacred col
lege. This ceremony, one of the few
that have come down virtually I'M
changed through the centuries, COM
bined the brilliance of the period
of Michael Angelo, the historic at
mosphere that ever envelopes the Holy
See, and the impressiveness that
clings to the sacred rites of st.
Peters.
Only three cardinals were conse-
Grated today, because the three
Spanish prelates elevated to the car
dinalate will receive their red hats
from King Alfonso, Archbishop
Dennis j. Dougherty, of Philadel-
phia; Jose F. Schultz, of Cologne, and
Michael Won Faulhaber, of Munich,
who yesterday received the first in
sigma of their new rank in the hier-
archy of the church.. took their places
today in the ranks of the cardinals
and assumed in full the dignities
conferred on them by Pope Benedict.
Since Monday these prelates have
been given flattering attention in the
Holy city, but today they were the
center about which revolved a pa
geant which impressed the eyes of a
distinguished congregation and will
long be remen bered.

A Reuters dispatch from Helsing-

denying that revolutionary troops
are occupying three-quarters of the
city. The dispatch says the in

part of the city which is under fire
from Kronstadt, and that it is also
being shelled by Bolshevik batteries
located at Boullovo. Another Hels-

the Fortress of Krasnoye .Gorka and
several armored trains, and that for
eign couriers have been unable to

If cotton sold at 10 cents a pound
every cent of the $500 wage would
be lost, so that if a man worked for
just his rations, there would still be
a loss.
Now take a 5-yards- the-pound
piece of cotton goods selling at Is
cents a yard The pound of cotton
in that form brings 75c per pound.
Now if you allow 25 per cent for the
manufacture of those goods, 10 per
cent for the wholesaler, 20 per cent
for the retailer, 5 per cent for waste
and transportation, the other 40 per
cent ought to be the value of the raw
cotton, which would figure out plain
ly to be 3Oc per pound.
The public is paying for cotton
goods today at price that shows
a value of soc per pound for the raw
pensation for necessary distributors
(forr If the grower sold direct to
mill, what other distributor would
be necessary. In other words, if
the pound of cotton in the goods is
worth Use to the consumer the raw
cotton is worth soc to the mill.
SO that when we consider the cost
of cotton there is yawning chasm
OF loss to be accounted for Cotton
goods have q value today, that if the
raw cotton was marketed in the
proper way, would bring at least 81
cents per pound, to the grower Now,
where does that difference between
II cents per pound and 80 cents per
pound go? Someone is surely get
ting it. for it does not just simply
go up in smoke. A part of that diff
ference which now goes to specu-
lators and others who are not neces-
sary distributors can be easily saved
to the grower by cooperative mar
keting, and it is the essence of folly
for the south to stand longer for this
damnable loss.
If you count cotton goods values
in the better grades. which range
from $3.50 to SIS and UP. per pound.
the disparity between those prices
and a measly little II cents for the
grower is so extreme that even a
blind mule could see it.
Let's set up better marketingg
system and save and retain more OF
this cotton wealth to the south.
Mr.. Spiro will explain the Califor-
MIA ways of cooperative marketing
