FACE REAL TEST OF
TIES OF FRIENDSHIP
tBy Associated Press)

LAUSANNE, Nov. 21.-Delegates to
the Lausanne conference, with the pre-
liminary oratory concerning the close
relations of Great Britain, France and
Italy behind 4hem, faced this morning
the real test of the strength of the
ties which spokesman for the three
powers have insisted existed amons
them.
The conference meets In private ses-
sion today for purposes Of organiza-
tion and to start the actual work of
making peace with the Turks. For
centuries Turkey has been able to pro-
tect herself by getting European ma
tions to- quarrel among themselves
over near eastern questions. The riv-
airy of France, Italy and Great Britain
for supremacy in the Levant has been
the protection of weak sultans in the
past and it remains to be seen whether
it will also be of service to Mustapha
Renal Pasha and his Angora asso-
ciates.
Ismet Pasha and his associates OF
the Turkish delegation to the confer.
ence appear less confident than when
they arrived and the feeling Is growing
that they will reduce their program
materially in the hope of restoring
peace and re-establishing trade rela-
tions with the outside world. 1t is be-
coming evident that they are begin
ming to realize that it was Greco and
not the great powers of Europe which
they defeated in their recent success.

COTTON FUTURES LAW
IS UNFAIR TO BUYER
SAYS SENATOR DIAL
tBy Associated Pressl

CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-The present
cotton futures contract law 'reverses
the laws Of common sense and the
customs of merchandising by per-
hitting the seller to deliver any one
of 10 grades to the buyers, Senator N
B. Dial, of South Carolina, declared
today in an address before the South
ern Commercial congress. He urged
amendment of the act to give the pur-
chaser rights equal to those of tho
seller. Under the present system, he
said, the grower suffers because pur-
chasers sell out their hedges rather
than accept delivery of inferior grades,
and the consequent heavy sales de-
press the price
Artificial supplies are created at
the pleasure of the sellers of contracts
without charging the demand. The
law of supply and demand is thus
hobbled. Whoever puts up the most
margins can carry prices his way. l
am not endeavoring to legislate value
into a commodity. This could not be
attempted. To my mind, the forego-
ing clearly demonstrates the Unequal
ity of the present law and it's unjust
operations against the grower
Suggests Remedies
Il suggest either one of three rene
dies, which ] am satisfied will great
ly improve conditions, but urge the
last one, toWit:
First: Require the specific grade
to be specified at the time the con.
tract is made.
Second: Allow the purchaser and
the seller of contract to each select
half of the quantity; but in order to
avert the possibility of a corner, eth.
er up or down, let them divide each
half equally in two, or even three
grades.
Third: Do away with the middling
fair as one of the grades tenderable
and divide the other nine grades into
three classes-A, B and C-with three
grades in each class, and make the
middle class the basis, with discount
for grade below and a premium fol
a grade above.
Il have introduced amendments ir
the senate along the lines suggested
above, but / am told that the task is
too monumental to be accomplished
and that it would cause a revolution
in marketing. l believe in revolutions
when they are necessary to accom-

his associates started on the second
day of their terms, six in the Joliet

sent to Joliet will be assigned to
routine prison tasks.
"Guess I'll get job as clerk" Jack
Carney, one of the six, is reported to
have said to his guard.
Guess you won't" replied the
guard, knowingly. "All white-collared
guys want to be clerks"
