VOTE FOR
BIG STANDING ARMY
SENATE PASSES APPROPRIATION
BILL PROVIDING FOR
FIGHTING MEN
10000 Men Will be Taken Care OF In
Measure Just Passed in Senate;
$4,000 Men Will Be Dis
charged from Army

1 Washington.-In an unexpected re-
versal of Tuesdays vote, the senate
Wednesday decided, 80 to 81, to reduce
| the strength Of the army to 10000 men
necessitating the discharge Of approx
mately $4,000 men before the middle
Of next February.
The action came as complete sur
prise after the action Tuesday by
which the senate adopted by vote OF "a
to 80, the military affairs committees
recommendation designed to keep the
strength of the army from falling be-
low 10000 men.
When the army bill was brought up
Wednesday for final action, a separate
roll call on the size of the army was de-
manded. The result was victory for
the economy drive Of insurgent Re
publicans, led by Senator Borah OF
Idaho, allied with virtually the solid
Democratic votes.
The military committees amendment
provided pay for minimum army of
10000 men. The rejection OF this
amendment automatically restored the
house provision requiring reduction of
the army to 10000 men, which Secre-
tary of War Weeks declared would be
ruinous.
Senator Wadworth Of New York,
chairman of the military committee ap-
pealed to the senate not to insist upon
30 drastic a reduction, and proposed
an amendment prviding funds for an
army of not less than 100000. The
senate relented somewhat and agreed
to this amendment without a roll call.
All but two votes for an army OF
100000 men were cast by Republicans
The two exceptions were Senator
Myers of Montana and Senator Fetch
err of Florida, Democrats. The twelve
insurgent Republicans and twenty-four
Democrats accomplished the defeat OF
the larger army amendment. The
twelve insurgents were BOrah, Capper.
Gooding, Harreld, Jones Of Washington
Kenyon, Ladd, LaFollette, McNary,
Norris, Townsend and Willis.
The passage of the entire bill. carry
ing appropriations of about $33, OOO,O OO
for the army for the fiscal year begin
ming July1, followed shortly afterwards
without roll call. The measure now
goes TO conference, where the question
of the size of the army will have to be
threShed out further.

about her, on first appearance or after
close scrutiny, to suggest the character
which made the shivers run down
childish spines or satisfied the fairy

dainty, with hands that lady of quail
ity might envy for their shapely slen-
dorness, and with a smile that grows
in friendless and warmth as she talks,
Mrs. Southland is about the last person
one would select as possible whole
sale murderes. She arrived Tuesday on
the liner Matsonia from Honolulu, in
company with Sheriff H. V. Ormsby of
Twin Falls, Idaho who with his wife
made the trip to the islands to bring
back the accused woman. At her own
request she was taken at once to the
city prison, rather than to the uptown
hotels, in order as she said ito keep
away from newspaper people and
others" who seemed to want to glimpse
her.

PREsI. ENTERTAINs WOUNDED
Men From Hospital Near Capitol Visit
Chief Executive and Wife


shingtOn.-America's wounded Of
the world war from hospitals near the
capital were entertained Wednesday by
President and Mrs. Harding at a gar.
den party at the White House.
They came by automobile and army
trucks and to the music of the marine
band were pushed in chairs, or led past
the president and Mrs. Harding. There
were "eats" in abundance.
When the long line of about 1000 had
tiled by, the president and Mrs. Har-
ding mingled with the crowd, stopping
at random to speak word. T the
groups Of blinded men the president
paid particular attention.
II wish / could restore your sight"
he said to one, and then noticing that
the blinded veteran had also lost both
his hands, he added earnestly:
II wish l could restore your hands,
too"
The soldier replied cheerfully that he
was getting along pretty WE'LL"
That's fine, that's very good" the
president continued. "Theres always
something to be found to make life
worth while. You have friends-and
you can SMILE"
The soldier fulfilled the presidents
judgment by smiling. The president
patted him on the back "Can you do
many things for yourself he asked.
II can feed myself" was the conf
dent reply.
II wouldn't doubt it," the president
laughingly answered.

WORDS FROM HOME


Statements That May Be Investigated
Testimony of Payette Citizens
When a Payette citizen comes to
the front, telling his friends and
neighbors of his experience, you can
rely on his sincerity. The statements
OF people residing in far away places
do not command your confidence.
Home endorsement is the kind that
backs Doan's Kidney Pills. Such tes-
timony is convincing. Investigation
proves it true. Below is a statement
of Payette resident. No stronger
proof of merit can be had.
Geo. r. Fulton, retired farmer.
GIL Sixth St., Payette, says: II was
troubled with kidney complaint and
my back caused me the most suffer
ing. It ached all the time and was
very weak. As had heard about
Doan's Kidney Pills SO often, used
them and It only took few weeks
to correct the disorder and rid me of
the pains"

CHANGE IN PRICE
 HELD IN NARROW
 LIMIT LAST WEEK
Liuuidation Prevents Market From Responding to Brisk Sentiment and Good
 Spot News
By Associated Press

New Orleans, July 17.-Price changes were held within narrow limits in the cotton market this last week. Sentiment was brisk and spot news and crop accounts were in ia vor of values, but liqGidation from the long side was much in evidence and it prevented the market from re- spending. At the highest levels prices were 20 to 32 points over the close of the preceding week; at the lowest they were 8 to 19 points an- der. Tine close showed net gains of to Is points october traded up to 12,sOc, fell off to 12.S3c, and closed at 12.5sc. The high prices were scat tered through the early sessions of the week. A feature of the fluctua- tions was the way on Friday that July fell $1 bale under spots, mid ding closing that day at 11.S8c, against H. 68c for July. On the close middling still stood at 11.Ssc, a net gain for the week of SS points. July closed at 11.s0c. year ago July

Daily Financial Gossip

most unnoticed absorption of these securities, as well as the part which the return of them to us played in changing our attitude from that Of a debtor to a creditor nation, have occasionally been referred to with qualification. But we begin to hear discussion which centers upon those returned securities. There never has been an officially accurate statement of the aggregate amount of these securities which were returned. Some of the authorities guess that at least three billions came back. others put the amount as high as four billions It seems to be the impression that there remain in Great Britain and in Europe about one billion of American securities.
 But the question is now occasional ly put: what has become of these billions of returned securities? Have they been absorbed by the public7 Undoubtedly some of them have, but the wonder is whether the greater part of them is not now held by banks and other institutes utilized as collateral security for loans-some of them placed with the federal re- serve banks. It seems to be the feeling that conditions cannot be well stabilized until these billions of American securities have been paid for in cash and thus absorbed by the public. It is in fact d hidden but important factor in the entire situa- tion. Great Britain and Europe, which sent to the United States in war days these securities have been paid, but it is possible that a good many of them may represent what is sometimes called frozen credit. TT fr 10 of leo ,er how many of these securities were accepted by American investors and how many of them stand behind loans.

pretend to know, and the safest course is to avoid the risk of a prob lem so inscrutable.
 The tariff debate is fully reported in the daily press. The Presidents opposition to the duty on petroleum has been disclosed and the Mexican oil companies are thereby somewhat reassured. Opposition to the valua- tion clause of the Fordney bill seems to be increasing. Money is in good supply in New York, but 6 per cent for the best commercial paper rf- mains the minimum here and higher rates prevail in the west and south.
 The Cuban crisis is still unrelieNed, though there is much talk of large American loan to srry over the sur nus supply of sugar.
 From Mexico there is no authorita- tive news. The best opinion is that Obregon is so fully employed in put ting his own back yard in order that he cannot pay much attention to eX- ternals.
 Our trade with Latin America Is, however, SO small in comparison with our domestic commerce ana fir4nce that 1t takes a subordinate place in the public mind which is gradually becoming more cheerful and S2uld be almost optimistic were it not for the unconscionable delay of Congress in dealing with the oppress/e taxation that makes capital inert and timid.

 The main events of the week were connected with the spot department and the demand shaped up In way that was most encouraging to traders on the long side. Sales for the week in the Liverpool market were the largest in years, the total being 6S,000 bales against 10000 this week last year and 19,000 this week two years ago. On Thursday alone, sales of 2O,0O0 bales were reported in the Liverpool market. or as much as was sold during the whole of this week last year. A better demand was felt in the New Orleans market but offer ings were not liberal and cotton owned here was tightly held. Texas markets reported more buyers than sellers and points in the eastern belt told of more demand and smaller of ferings.
 Tn the way of weather the main de- velopment was the complaint of too much moisture in the eastern belt, which some time ago was complain ing of drouth. Daily showers finally reached the point where damage Gas complained of, mainly through the spread of the weevil and telegrams from South Carolina were almost sen sational in their claims regarding the spread of the insect. which some messages reported working it's way into the hill regions. In the western belt there was too much rain in some sections the first of the week but later on dry weather prevailed. South Texas, however continued to com plain of the effect of too much mois- ture which delayed the maturing and opening of bolls and increased weevil damage.

TUSCALOOSA CROPS
 LOOKING MUCH BETTER

Tuscaloosa, July 17.-(special)-- Farmers in and around Tuscaloosa are feeling optimistic over the fact that several fairly good rains have fallen and crops are looking fine. Some places in the county have re- ceived little or no rain, but they are not so numerous as in many coun- ties. Vegetables, muskmelons, water melons, etc., are plentiful, and IL looks as though the corn crop wrn he a success, as well as wheat, oats, sugar cane, alfalfa and velvet beans No farmer planted as much cotton as in previous years, and the boil weevil has already started it's devastation of the crop
