COTTON MAKES ADVANCES
Plants Blooming and Frultina Well
in Oklahoma

Temperature averaged
near normal in the cotton growing
states during the last week and show
ers were general in parts of Texas.
according to the crop bulletin of the
department of agriculture.
Under these conditions the report
said, cotton made fair to very good
there was considerable damage by
advance in all sections, although
excessive rains in some eastern loca-
lities.
The plants are blooming and fruiting
well in Tennessee and Oklahoma and
made very good advance in Georgia
and North Carolina. The condition
is fair to very good in nearly all sec
tions of Texas except central coast
sections. The weather was favorable
for cotton in Arkansas and progress
was good in Louisiana and Mississi-
ppi. Growth was rank but at expense
of fruit, in South Carolina and some
damaging rains occurred.

Reaction Expected In Business When

Washington-Re in federal
reserve re-discount rates Throughout
the country generally were indicated
by high administration Officials as
likely to follow soon upon the action
of the reserve banks of New York.
Boston, Philadelphia and San Fran
cisco. in bringing their rates down
from 6 percent to IL percent, Belief
was expressed that the readjustment
Of the re-discount rates would mean
the reduction to 6 percent on those
now 1-2 percent and IL percent
on those now percent.
A favorable reaction in the business
situation throughout the country, ad-
ministration officials said, could be
looked for >as a result of lower levels
as this clear indication of easier
money should stimulate industries
and business to greater activity.

DEFICIT is S28O,OOO,OOO
GERATER THAN WAS
ANTICIPATED
Be A HUGE COST NEXT SEASON
The Books Of the Shipping Board are
in Bad Condition According to
Statement Of Lasker After He
Had Made Investigations

Washington-Operations of the
shipping boards fleet for the fiscal
year just ended, resulted in a loss of
approximately S38O,O0O,OOO. Chairman
Lasker Of the board announced. This
deficit was greater by 1907 900 900
previous estimates from official
sources and was made following an
examination of all board accounts.
Armed with authority from Presi-
dent Hading to "yank the lid off the
entire shipping siuation,' he summon-
ed newspaper correspondents to his
office. There he threw onto his desk
for the American public the figures
showing that the shipping board des-
pite camouflage showing expenditures
of $99,51S,00O actually went through"
$6SO,O0O,OOO during the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1921.
Deception Is Deliberate
That's as near as we can get to it
with the deplorable state of the books
which, if kept for the specific pur-
poses of cloaking frauds, could not
have been better" Chairman Lasker
stated "One thing is certain. There
was an absolute deception of congress
and the people on the expenditures of
the shipping board. That never will
be again"
The new chairman's dehunciation of
the bookkeeping system employed by
the shipping board in the past was
delivered In the presence of Alonzo
Tweedale, comptroller during the past
two years and still In the boards en-
ploy. The chairman, however, gave
him and Admiral w. S. Benson, form
or chairman and present commission
er, clean bill. He charged 1t all to
the system.
1T is a system that was conceived
in the stress Of the war and was con-
tinued in the stress of incompetence"
stated Mr. Lasker. 'If 1 am not
right Mr.. Tweedale and his assistants
will correst me-"
you are right admitted those un-
happy survivors of the pro-Lasker re-
gime.
Here is the schedule of receipts
dragged out of the books of the board
by Chairman .Lasker to prove that in
was gone through"
the present fiscal year $3.50, 600, 900
From operation Of ships, $SOO,OOO..
900.
From treasury, by appropriation.
S1OO.OOO.OOO.
Balance in treasury, start of year
$sO,OOO.OOO.
From sale of ships, S2O0,OOO,OOO
Now total that up and see If it
isn't $6sO,OOO,OOO," he commented.
when l showed these figures to the
president he was shocked as congress
and the public will be. It only shows
the utter collapse of the shipping
board of which this administration
has fallen heir. It constitutes the
most difficult business proposition
that ever was put up to any presi-
dent
Then he produced the figures show.
ing how the $6sO,OOO,OOO was ex-
pended, as follows:

GREEKS DEFEAT TURKISH ARMY
LOSS ON BOTH SIDES WAS
REPORTED ENORMOUS
It Was Announced That The Greeks
Broke the Record BY Marching
900 kilometers in Ten Days

Touloum, Asia Minor-Kutaia, Mus
tha Kemals strategical point in Asia
Minor, was occupied. Terrible fight
ing occurred before the town owing
to the persistence of the Turkish re-
sistence. which lasted seventy-two
hours.
The losses on both sides were enor.
nous, but it was a decisive victory
for the Greeks who captured numer.
GUS prisoners and an abundance Of
artillery.
The fall of Kutia greatly disturbs
the Kemalists, who now will be un-
able to retain Eski-Shehr, the new
Greek objective. General Papoulas
expresses the belief that the Turks
have lost their principal defensive
line.
The Greeks fought with Spartan
energy in the fierce bayonet attacks.
They advanced 200 kilometers since
the offensive began. The division
commanded by Prince Andrew has
made a marching record of 800 kilo-
meters in ten days.
Greeks Take 10000
A central news dispatch from Ath-
ems says that the Greeks have occu.
pied Kutsha, capturing 10000 priso.
ners. The enemy is reported in flight
towards Eskisher.
