EUROPE Is RAPIDLY
BEING RESTORED TO
OLD TREATY CONTROL
BY CLYDE A. BEALS

BY CLYDE A. BEALS
Written for the United Press)
LONDON, July S.-The old trea-
tyfied Europe in more extreme
I form. though possibly under much
more favorable circumstances, is be-
ing rapidly restored. The outlet for
the adjustment OF territorial disputes
/ provided by the League OF Nations,
however, may render local adjust
ments" practical, and failing any,
thing better, even desirable.
The sponsor OF the amendment to
article XXI OF the league covenant,
recognizing and encouraging local ap-
pl.cation OF the broad principles laid
down by the league, DR.. Benes, the
Czecho-Slovakian foreign minister. IS
also one of the moving spirits in the
little entente. In an interview he
discussed for the United Press the
effect of the amendment and of the
little entente on the peace OF Central
Europe.
"The amendment is an important
addition, believe" he said, ito the
League OF Nations covenant. There
are many local problems that, for the
league to attempt to settle, would
provide endless complications. This
amendment will provide for their
settlement on the principles of the
covenant by the nations concerned.
"The little entente, consisting at
present of JugoslaVia, Roumania and
CzechOslovakta, comes within the
meaning of this amendment. 1t is
designed to promote economic ad-
iustments.
"Our nations have gained indie
pendence at a great cost and we
mean to see that nothing upsets it.
We have arranged treaties requiring
military support in case a member
of the little entente is attacked or
in cases where the peace of Central
Europe is prejudiced. We want TO
prevent war from b 'eaking out.
Because Czecho-Slovakia has re-
fused to enter into a Danubian con-
federation, which is supposed to be
able to bring about peace in Central
Europe, We have been accused OF
seeking to keep Austria and Hungary
beggared. l have opposed the Dan
ube confederation. 1t is not wanted.
If We formed the Danubian conded-
GRAFTON without the other powers,
we should be outnumbered two to
one, which would not be bad but
for the fact that both Austria and
Hungary are so strongly influenced

PREDICTS SHORTAGE IN
SUPPLY OF RAW COTTON
American Attache AT London Says
Acreage Must BE Expanded 10
Meet Future Demands
RESULT or EXHAUSTIVE STUDY


The worlds cotton acreage must
undergo very marked expansion in
the years TO come If the supply OF
raw cotton is TO keep pace with the
worlds needs. Alfred p. Dennis,
American attache at London, reported
to the department of commerce after
an exhaustive study of the worlds
capacity for consuming cotton goods.
At the present time, he said. there
is a record carry-oyer OF raw cotton.
Combined with this there is an inn
mense amount of under-produetion in
the chief cotton spinning eenters of
the world. There has been marked
setback to the purchasing power OF
the world in the amount of cotton
goods and corresponding setback
to the production of cotton.
1T Is obvious" says Mr.. Dennis.
that the world has emerged from
the war with "A production capacity
of raw cotton considerably below its
requirements. Co-in-cidentally there
has been marked decline in the
output OF manufactured cotton stuffs,
that. in turn, being a reflection OF re-
duced buying power in the great
cotton consuming centers OF the
world
with a return Of the world TO a
normal state of economy. buying will
be sumed, idle and short time looms
and spindles will be speeded up, and
an insstent demand for raw mate
rial may be anticipated.
'Far-sighted representatives of the
British cotton trade are already agi-
tating the question of increasing the
production of raw cotton within the
empire.
II seems established that the need
of the world for cotton goods within
the near future will grow more rap
idly than viii! the extension of cotton
growing areas. Increase in the sun
ply of cotton depends very largely on
the finding of fresh cotton territory
and improving the strains of existing
known cotton.
"The crop in America, which had
been averaging for the five years,
/ 1859. IL, 900 900 bales. jumped 10
NtuIS lOi Nh' NV SNN'N'
1904, to an average of 13,50O,0OO
bales. Production in other countries
also increased. The inference must
be accepted, therefore, that through
the increase in the worlds popula-
ton and through the extension OF
consumption to new markets as well
as through the inclusion of cotton into
new utilities. such as automobile
tires, the world required an increase
in its supply of cotton. II Is stated
on high authority that the world IN
1914 was in a position to absorb in
manufactured goods at least 7Oo.0o
/ bales of cotton more each year than
II consumed the year before.
zone of the prime factors in the
present day equation is the impover-
ishment of the world. Trade with
both Russia and Germany has
amounted to little. and while the ca.
pacity in general of Central and
Eastern Europe to buy cotton goods
has not been destroyed il has been
greatly impaired.

he is suspected. He may be prepar-
ing such confession now. He is said
to have grown very nervous, as re-
suit of the continued isolation and
mystery, and to be writing very busi-
ly in his cell. If he is the murderer
he is thought to be, quite possibly he
is writing the story Of his crime.
This is described as "a fascinating
experiment in psychology" 1t is that.
and it is a horrible one. The psychol-
ogy of it, however, is probably sound.

NEW JAPANESE POLICY.

Japan has promised several times
to restore Shantung to China. and has
not yet done so. 1t does not follow
that Japan is bluffing now when she
says that she intends to make the
restoration as soon as it can be ar
ranged. and also to evacuate Siberia.
The Japanese government may not
have experienced a change of heart.
but it does appear to have changed
it's plan. 1t still wants to dominate
eastern Asia. but it is growing sensi-
tive to world opinion. 1t appre-
ciates. too. the fact that rebeliious
and resentfu Chinese and Siberian
population can be of little use to it, for
purposes of either commercial or
military exploitation.
Japan therefore. seems disposed
to follow the example of the United
States. not presuming to govern any
of her neighbors. but asserting a sort
of oriental Monroe Doctrine and
gaining her ends by cultivating the
friendship of her neighbors. That is
wiser course. and one to which
Americans can offer no criticism.

LABOR CONTRACT HELD SACRED

At time when organized labor is
subjected to widespread opposition
and criticism-some of it unquestion-
ably deserved-it is duty and {
pleasure to call public attention to
an act of the Brotherhood of Loco.
motive Engineers.
Last summer 2,400 members of that
body joined in an outlaw strike
They were Immediately suspended by
Grand Chief Warren S. Stone. His
prompt and decisive action was
warmly commended at the time by
the press and public generally, but
there were some rumblings of dis
content among the railroad men. The
matter naturally came up at the trien-
NAL convention Of B. Of l. E., which
has just been held. To the great
satisfaction of the officers of the
Brotherhood, the 405 delegates voted
unanimously upholding the action OF
Chief Stone in suspending the strik-
ing members.
This approval was based entirely
on the ground that by striking as they
did, those 2,4O0 railroad engineers
had violated the contract existing be-
tween their union andtherali NIB
tween their union and the railroads.
It was the most impressive recogni-
ton of the sacredness of contract
that has yet been given by an Ameri-
can labor uinon.
American unionism needed just
such demonstration of it's essential
good faith in this vital matter Of
keeping contracts. The precedent es-
.ablished by the B. of L. E. should
have fine effect in stiffening the
average unions sense Of responsibility
as regards the keeping of business
agreements. 1t is one of the best
things that ever happened for the
promotion of the welfare of union
labor.

THE MODEL WILL.

The late Chief Justice White cer-
tainly ought to have known how to
make a will, if anybody in America
did. 1t may be of general interest.
Therefore, to learn what kind Of will
ne made. The document has just
been made public.
Tbs most notable thing about it is
braYity. 1T contains only 81 words,
and reads as follows:
'.TEis is my last will. give. be-
aueath and devise to my wife. Leita
M. White, in complete and perfect
ownership. all my rights and property
Of any kind and nature. whether
real, personal Or mixed. wherever sit
mated. appointing her executrix of
my estate without bond and giving
her seizin thereof
Contrast this straightforward state
1nsnt with the elaborate legal fiud-
dub that messes up the average will.
The form used by Justice White. in
spite of it's simplicity. is presuma bly,
proof against viii attack. 1t may
serve as convenient model for any
man who wants to make his wife his
sole heir. as most men do, and may
also serve as a stimulus for more
men to perform the sensible duty Of
making their wills while they have
time, thereby avoiding the danger OF
confusion and difficulty after death.
It is necessary, Of course, to have

and is no doubt. better. whether state
law requires it or not, to have it wit
messed by a notary public.
