Harding for DelnY

\ LTHOUGH President Harding is com
miited by prediction pledge TO end
immediately this :ount:y's technical state
Of war with Germany. il is autlcritativciy
stated that the influence ot his adininstra-
ton is not behind the movement Of Senate
leaders TO press the passage OF the knox
resolution declaring peace between The two
countries. Rather IT is stated. he has
given HIS approval to tho prompt iutroduc-,
ton Of the resolution upon the convenng
of the special session next Monday, but
would have it held up in committee until
his administration finds ITSELF on the
question of definite foreign policy having
Ito DO with the whole subject of world
peace. lie is said To take The view that in
the settlement OF so important Il question
the nation must proceed with care and pru-
dencc II is further explained that he has
no; withdrawn the approval he gave tie
resolution when he supported it in the last
Congress. Still he is convinced that the
present situation does not require haste in
its passage.
While il has not Dcen made clear just
what motive is influencing this change in
his attitude toward immediate passage Of
the resolution, il is inferred that he would
consider his admins; ration in n better posi-
lion Ia make advances ior an association OF
nations If The peace declaration were de-
layoI. However this may be. it is forescen
that he Will have to present convincing evil
dence TO the Senate of the wisdom Of this
course TO induce them to abandon their
present intention of Fastening action on tie
resolution, since an overwhelming number
Of them are known to be favorable to that
course. Moreover. the position of these
Senators is strengthened by reason of the
fact that our late associates in the war are
nt peace with Germany and enjoying all the
benefits OF trade intercourse with that conn
try, OF which we are largely deprived under
! the existing state of affairs.
Presumably. the reasons which have in
fucnced tho Presidents change of attitude
toward IN Immediate peace declaration will
be presented in his forthcoming message
upon Tie converting OF Congress. 1t may
provo to be weighty; IL is reasonable TO as
/, sumo that the supporters OF the resolution
will yield point in their present program
rather than antagoniZe the administration
and delay its passage until the President
( has had n chance 10 test out his plan for
checting world association, in which our
F! foreign policy whole will be fully de-
/ fined. With the election now five months
! past, both the American people and the
I world AT large are entitled to know what
/ This policy is To be. ).

willing to await conversion of the. raw
product into finished Merchandise.
That the interests OF the cotton grower
have suffered greatly throughout the his
tory Of the industry by reason OF stressful
credit conditions which force him to dis
pose of his crop in, a stagnated market,
is a statement that is incontestable. Specu-
lativc interests understand the conditions
and they reap huge profits by aggrayating
them. If the financial interests, which owe
much of their prosperity to the cotton in
dustry, can be prevailed upon to give more
concern to the neells of the cotton grower
at the right time by providing him with
proper credit facilities. through local bank
ing syndcates or some such plan. this con-
dition would be overcome and to that ex-
tent, he would be more advantageously
placed to combat the speculator
However, what has hurt the cotton
grower MOST during the past season is the
lack of buying power in Europe. That
country needs his raw cotton but is un-
able TO purchase it, AS Governor Harding
rightly stated TO the conference, there is
no actual overproducton Of the staple but
decrease i'll the buying power OF the Euro
pean states, into which American commo-
dit!eS formerly went. This condition must
be overcome by the extension OF long term
credit through some American agency to
rccrcate this buying power
