Legislature of Mississippi.
Whereas, our schools have at
tanned a marked degree of effic-
iency and the standard of the
teaching corps raised, and.
Whereas, with the increased
appropriations of recent years we
still rank Nth, in the list of
states in illiteracy and general
standards of education, and.
Whereas. the demand for train
ed men and women is greater than
ever before. and,
Whereas, to lower our county
lew for the common schools
would cause our public schools
to lose a per cent of their share
of the State Equalizing Fund
which amount is far in excess of
the amount paid by the county,
therefore,
Be it Resolved, that it is the
sentiment of this body that the
county levy and state appropria-
ton for public schools should not
be reduced.

u. S. MAY PROSECUTE XII
KLUS KHAN.

Washington, Sept. 2O.-The
vvestigation and possible prose
torney General Daugharty allow
ed it to become known tonight.
The attorney general conferred
to day with his various assist
ants, chief William J. Burns OF
the bureau of investigation and
with District Attorney Haywood
of New York. While no cOnclu-
sion was reached as to the action
to be taken, the attorney general
made this significant assertion.
This government is not going
to be run or inundated by any
man or organization wearing a
mask"
Mr.. Daugherty will confer with
Chief Burns again tomorrow and
with Mr.. Haywood on Saturday.
The ideals of the Ku Klux Khan
the attorney general declared, are
"repugnant to any lawyer or, law
abiding citizen While the liter
ature and the avowed purpose of
the organiza' icn, he explained,
do not on their face indicate any
Illegally, the government is anx--
ious to find out what lies behind
these ostensible objects. He add
ed.
Possibly the organization may
bn compared to some of the corp
orations that have been found vi
olating the antitrust laws. Their
charters and minutes proclaimed
the most virtuous ideals and OBJ
jects, but it is the wink and the
nod that does the trick.
Any investigation that may be
undertaken by the government
said Mr.. Daugherty. will have for
it's chief purpose to ascertain
what goes on behind the closed
doors of the khan meetings. If the
facts warrant federal action, they
will be placed before a grand
jury and the finding of an indict-
mnnt will be urged. The charge
upon which such true bill would
be returned was not revealed. 1t
is understood, however, that de-
partment officials believe that
evidence criminal conspiracy will
be revealed.
That the attorney general has
New York City in mind for the
Inauguration of such a prosecu-
ton was indicated by the fact
that District Attorney Haywood
was called into the conference.
EVEN though Imperial Wizard
Simmons is a resident of Georgia,
department officials believe that
a New York indictment will be
sustained if it were proved that
he had conspired in any way with
officials of the khan in that state.

FOCH PAYS TRIBUTE

Perhaps the most dramatic OF
the many incidents that have
marked the visit of members of
the American Legion to the bat
tie fields of France came last Sun
day at Flirey, Muertheet-Moselle,
during the unwilling there of the
famous monument erected lin
memory of the American soldiers
who died in France.
Marshal Foch. ait the climax of
the unwilling ceremonies, sudden
ly took from his tunic, where it
was pinned beside the American
Distinguished Service Medal, his
own Croix de Guerre, and step
ping over to Major John G. Emery,
commander of the American Lee
gion, pinned it on the Americans
lapel. Only a short while before
Major Emery had received the or
der of the commander of the Le-
gion of Honor with great cere-
mony and formality, but the simp-
lie, unaffected tribute of Marshal
Foch to the American boys, dead
and alive, who played their part
with France in the struggle for a
free world was by far more i'm
pressive, stirring all who witness
ed it.
Little instances such as these
mean more than any studied dis
play or flowery language could
convey. They are the measure of
true affection, the tribute that
comes from the heart; and they
are tycical of the bond that exists
today between the people of
France and the peovle of America.
May that bond never be broken.

SCHOOL WEEK
Superintendent Bond Asks
Every County In State to
Cooperate.

w. F. Bond, State Superinten-
dent of Education, has given out
the following statement with ref
erence to School Week which will
be observed in all counties of the
state during either the first or
Second week of October.
In accordance with the sugges-
ton of the United States Com
missioner of Education, and upon
the county .superlntendent OF ed
location. Better School Week will
be observed this scholastic year
in every county of the state. dur
ing either the first or second week
of October. -
During this week everybody is
requested to give serious thought
to the needs of the common
shoots of the state. and therefore
are requested to meet at places
to be designated by county COM
mittee, for the purpose OF dis
cussing with one another plans
for the betterment of educational
conditions in the county. At all
such meetings there will be
speakers who are able to give the
people the necessary information,
encouragement and inspiration
along educational lines.
All state and county officials,
college presidents and professors,
editors, ministers of the gospel,
candidates for office, congress
men, district officers, members Of
the state department of leduca-
ton and leading mem and women
generally throughout the state
are called upon to lay aside poll
tics and other things that might
stand in the way, and give what
ever of their time they can during
this week of encouragement of
educational matters along the fol-
lowing lines:
/. All children should be en-
couraged to go to school, and stay
in school until they finish at least
the high school course.
e. Parents should be encouraged
to provide adequate educational
advantages for their children;
lay aside petty quarrels and jeal-
ousieS, and to cooperate whole
heartedly with the teachers.
8 Teachers should be encourag-
ed to either try to make better
teachers of themselves every year.
or get out of the profession.
Mississippi ranks low educa
tionally because of the poor at
tendance of our children on the
common schools. and because of
the relatively poor support given
schools in financial way. Du-
ring the last three years, we have
made more progress than any
other state in the Union. accord

AN ELECTRIFYING EFFECT

under the above caption the In
dustrial Index of Columbus Ca,
says:
AS these lines are written, fiji
teen cents is being paid for cot
ton in various cities and towns in
the South. Fifteen cent cotton is
not forty cent cotton or even
twentyfive-cent cotton, but it is
great deal better than ten-cent
cotton. Indeed. the beneficial eff
feet of this market change is not
simply that cotton is bringing so
per cent more than it did a COM
paratively short time ago-the
benefit Is far greater and broader
than that.
Cotton is going UP not down.
this, perhaps, after all, is the
main point. During the past week
the market went up in a way that
showed both life and strength.
When the price of cotton advances
just at the time when the farmer
begins to market it, some funda-
mental underlying cause is re-
sponsible. In years gone by there
have been purely artificial spurts
in the cotton market, but as a
rule they were during the plant
ing season, and that they influ-
enced the planting is unquestionI-
able. But when the price rises i'm
August and September, it simply
means that there is sound COM
mercial reason for the increased
bidding (and this means an in
creased price, for the staple. The
good old law of supply and de-
mand is in operation, and that is
all there is to it.
Cotton may or may not GO to 20
cents this marketing season. But
even if it does not bring more
than Is cents, this is a better
price than was expected by most
conservative people.
