The chamber also passed an addl tional bill authorizing the government to increase prices paid for foodstuffs by natives of countries where Italian money is at a discount. The bill had its origin in the fact that Itlay pays for her coal, wheat and raw materials in pounds sterling and dollars, which means Italians pay five times the par price.
 Italy, even after the increase in bread prices, still will lose billions of lire on staple foods in order to keep the price relatively low, and also will lose

President-elect ,Harding's announce ment of his completed cabinet may not have aroused any loud cheers of enthusiasm, but it was received with quiet satisfaction and confidence by a large part of the public. Though the list of ten names does not include those of many men of towering emi hence, 1t is felt by most Republicans. at least, that all the members of the new cabinet are men with ideas and opinions and that they will be actually the advisers of the chief executive. The only real surprise among the ap- pointments was that of Edwin Denby of Michigan to be secretary of the navy. Not that he is not well equipped to fill the position, but he was barely mentioned in advance. The selec- tion of Mir. Hoover for the portfolio of commerce was gratifying to the public, and that of MT. Davis for sec retary of labor pleased most of the organized labor forces of the country, though he is no longer directly con- nected with their activities.
 Frank LOwden, having declined ap- pointment, Illinois received no place in the cabinet. But many persons are hoping that Mir. Harding will per suade Charles Dawes of Chicago to accept the chairmanship of the com mission he will name to reOrganize the executive machinery of the gov ernment. This position, Mir. Harding holds, will be almost if not quite as important as a place in the cabinet.

The two great agencies of the allies the supreme council and the council of the League of Nations-began ses- sions last week, the former in London and the latter in Paris. The league council first took up the matter of amendments to the covenant, and, be- cause the attitude of the incoming ad- ministratiOn in America was in doubt, the question was referred to a com mittee which will not report before April. This gives MT. Harding time to define his position on the league. Then the mandates were brought up for consideration, and again the United States, though not officially represented, made it's influence felt. Ambassador Wallace sent word that our State department wished to pre- sent its views, and action was halted until the note from Washington ar rived. This note, in substance, called attention to the fact that the United States has never given its consent that the island of Tap be included in the territories subjected to the man. date of Japan, and declares the gov ernment cannot regard itself as bound by the terms of that mandate. It asked the council to submit the question to a new investigation.
 Secretary Colby also claimed for the United States an equal concern and interest with the other principal allied and associated powers in the disposition of the overseas posses sions of Germany.
 The net result, at this writing, is a decision to delay all mandate ac-

 The conference in London dealt with the problem of the Near East and the possibility of revising the Sevres treaty. Turkish delegations representing both the Constantinople and the Angora governments were present and the first part of the week was wasted in their efforts to get to- gether and present a detailed state ment of their desires. They finally agreed on demands that Thrace, Smyr- na and the Dardanelles be restored to Turkey, and objections to the polit- icaI, economic and financial control exercised by the allies. However, groups, assured the conferees that both sections would accept the de cisiOn of the allies. The demand that the custody of the Dardanelles be re- signed again to the Turks caused much surprise and unfavorable con- ment, even among the French dele gates, who have been generally on the side of Turkey in the present contro- versy. The Greeks remain uncompro- missing in their demand that the treaty of Seyres stand virtually unaltered, and 1t was considered possible the great powers might permit them to try to hold their positions in Turkey, though without assistance from the allies.

According to advices from Constan- tfnople. the Bolshevists in the Cau- casus region have begun warfare against the republic of Georgia and already have occupied considerable territory. First dispatches said the Reds, under command of Budenny, had captured Tifis, the capital, but later it was reported they had been driven back from the city by the hastily gathered Georgian troops. There is little doubt of the ability of the Bolshevists to overrun Georgia and reach Erzerum, there establishing contact with the forces of Mustapha Kemal Pasha.
 Another Red drive took place in Persia and resulted in the capture of Teheran, the capital, and of the shah himself. This exploit was carried out by several thousands of Persian Cos sacks under Reza Khan, who landed on the south shore of the Caspian sea and marched to Kasbin and thence to Teheran. Notwithstanding these movements in the east, the great bulk of the Russian Bolshevist army is on the west border preparing for the big spring drive there.

While the "war" in Ireland was be- ing carried on with renewed vigor by both sides, the house of commons last week engaged in long and exciting de- bates on the Irish question. At one time, in rejecting an opposition amend ment by a vote of 257 to S8 the house placed its seal of approval on the gov ernment's Irish policy. Lord Robert Cecil made his debut as whip of the opposition party in an effective speech in which he demanded that parliamentary commission make an impartial investigation of the alleged atrocities in Ireland. Sir Hamaf Greenwood warned the house that the conspiracy of the Sim Fein was now directed against England; and he told of captured document which showed an appropriation of f3O,OOO a month for the republican army" most of which money, he asserted, came from Irish-Americans.
 Justice Cohalan of the Supreme court of New York, one of the most obnoxious of the anti-English Irish men in this country, made himself more ridiculous than usual last week by voicing, in a public address, the opinion that the United States should demand of Great Britain that she make Canada free and forever remove the British flag from this continent.

Cotton ReUieW
(By Thomson x McKinnon)

New York-The cotton market During
the greater part Of the snort session to-
day acted fairly steady, responsive. no
doubt, to the favorable showing made in
the weekly statistics.
During the coming week, attention win
be conferred on the coming bureau report
estimating the size of the crop. 1t is
possible that the report may show suf-
ficient variation from the prevailing ideas
to create some temporary fluctuations
in the market, but we hardly think that
there can be such variation as to ma
and demand. The statistical figures do
not tell the entire story
The trade will be confronted sooner or
later With the percentage Of undesirable
cotton, end unless there is a promise Of
much larger crop this coming season,
we will more than likely have a better
market this coming year, with higher
prices.
