President Interested In Means to Carry Stored Cotton
 From Year to Year
By AssocIated Press

Washington, June 2S.-President Harding has requested Secretaries Mellon and Hoover and managing director Mayer of the war finance corporation, to conduct an investiga- tion into credit facilities in the south available for the carrying over of present cotton stocks until they can be marketed in an orderly way.
 Announcement Of the credit inves- tigation was made today by MT. Hoo- yer, who said that the committee named by the President would begin preliminary investigation of the sub jest immediately upon the return of Mir Meyer, who is now absent from the city, He said there had been many complaints about the insuffi- ciency of credit for carry-ove pur- poses.
 The President seemed to have in mind. according to the commerce secretary, desire to make credit available in order that the stocks of cotton from previous years, now stored throughout the south would rot act as deterrent to the growth of a full crop this year.
 MT. Hoover declined to say whether any credit arrangement for southern cotton might assume a likeness to the cattle pool recently arranged through the federal reserve board. He said, however, that in all likeli- hood, the federal reserve board may yet have a part in the cotton financ- ing as 1t did in the livestock indus try.

 "The White House, Washington, June B, 1921. My Dear Governor Harding:
 Thank you very much for yours of June 2l, with which you enclosed to of The Brmingham Age-Herald which IS printed paper made from Alabama spruce pine. It is very interesting because of my concern for ample pulp supply for the newspaper industry of our country. It seems to me we have the two fold problem of acquiring inexhaustible timber supply the one hand and limiting the size of newspaper publications to a reasonable de- gree the other. do not know the best pro- ceedngs to effect the limitation, but think that is less important than the continued develop ment of pulp supply. Please know of my gratitude for your thoughtfulness in calling this matter to my attention.

 WILL CONSULT HIS
 CABINET I FIRST
Part of DeValera Cabinet Is In Jail and Must Also Be Consulted as to Lloyd
 Georges Invitation
By Associated Press

Dublin June 27.--Tne announce ment made by Sir James Craig. the Ulster premier. that he must consult with his cabinet before replying to the invitation of Prime Minister Lloyd George to a conference between the leaders of the Irish factions and the government has directed attention to the fact that four members of Ramon DeValera's cabinet are in jail-the Countess Georgiana AIarkievicz. minister of labor, and Robert Barton, who are under sentepces of penal servitude. and Arthur Griffith foun- dor of the Sim Fein and Prof. John McNenl, president of the Sein Feins volunteers, who have been held since last autumn without charges prefer red against them.
 The opinion was expressed in high Sim Fein circles today that Devalera would request an opportunity to consult with them, and that should Sir James Craig's cabinet consider q general meeting of the northern parliament members desirable, De- Valera would make the same claim as regards the Dail Eireann. and ask for the release Of all its imprisoned mem bers.
 In both official and Sein circles De Valera's acceptance of Lloyd Georges invitation is regarded as probable. Prof. John McNeill. who was expelled from the Royal Irish academy after the rebellion, today was restored to his position by the members of the academy without development, al though he is in jail.
 The Irish Bulletin, the Dail Elreann's official organ. answering today intimations in the English press of division between Devalera and the extremists. says no such divi- sion ever exists. Mir. DeValera him seif, 1t asserted, repeatedly has stated publicly that the national army IS under control of the national civil government and that the ministry of the Dail Eireann is responsible both for policy and executive action

DOWELL BILL IS
 PASSED BY HOUSE
Will Cause Compromise With Senate on Townsend Bill,
 as House Is Against Bill

Watson of Georgia, McE<erIar Of Tennessee, aAd Dial of south CaroIipn. were greatly encouraged i'm their op- position to the Townsend highway bill when inc House today passed the Doweil bill by an overwheIm- ing vote.
 The Townsend bill provides for overland highways connecting the cities of the country. The DoweIl bill is q replica of the Bankhead biu. and provides means for the construction of farm m-to-mariset roads. The argument against the Townsend bill Is based on the belief of the senators that farm CTS will not vote for bond issue, making possible co-operntiOn be- tween the states and the federal government, when made aware that such issues will he used in constructing automobile high ways. The indications are that the Senate, despite the minority's opposition. will substitute for the DoweII hill, the Townsend bill. But the House, more closely in touch with the people, will not, it was strongly indicated today, accept the substitute. In con sequence, it Is predicted thnt some equitable compromise will be wrought.
