In the legitimate market OF more than
$SOO,OOO.OOO and worth in bootleg
channels more than $1,OOO,OOO 900,
shipped from the United States to for
eign countries just before the Volstead
act went into effect on January 16,
1922, eventually will find their way
back to this country, under the pro-
visions of the Willis-Campbell act
passed by congress last November to
supplement the national prohibition
law, according to John d. Appleby,
general prohibition agent in charge Of
New York and New Jersey.
Big Shipment Enters.
Already one big shipment has been
made to this country under the provi-
sions of the supplemental law. Gin
valued in bootleg circles at $3,OOO,O 900
was reimpOrted from Cuba about two
weeks ago. The distillery which made
the shipment had gone out Of busi-
ness, fact that apparently was not
discovered by the government agents
until the gin had arrived here. A spe.
cfal permit had to be obtained from
Washington before 1t could be stored
In local warehouse, pending its
withdrawal for medicinal purposes on
permits from the directors of1ice.
Prohibition agents we're mystified In
checking up the cargo to note on the
manifest 112 empty barrels. They
have not yet been able to make out
the reason for the empties, but Fed
eral Prohibition Director Ralph A.
Day regarded 1t as suspicious cir.
cumstance
The passage Of the Willis-C Campbell
law, ostensibly for the purpose Of kill
Ing medicinal beer, has made 1t pos
sible for the thirsty to be supplied
with good liquors for a much longer
period than appeared likely before
the measure was adopted, prohibition
officials said. In some quarters the
provision for the reimport Of liquors
was considered az "joker"

The law provided that the COM

What is regarded as another "jok-

provision which exempts payment of

DAMAGE BY HAIL
NEAR PATRICK

Patrick, May 22.-This vicinity was
visited by a severe hailstorm about
noon last Thursday and considerable
damage is reported to crops, especial
ly cotton. The most damage seems
to have been to the earlier cotton
which had been brought to a stand.
Some farmers have planted over and
some are considering planting other
crops, as the cotton was practically
all destroyed.
The hail stones were about the sic

caused by the hail stones.
This is the heaviest hail that has

"OUTSIDE WORLDS TRADE
DEBT TO L. S. is FINAGGER-
ATED." DECLARES HAIR
WARD EXPERT.

Writing in the current number of
the Journal of the American Bank
ers' association, DR.. John H. Will
inns, Of Harvard university, reaches
the conclusion that the unpaid and
overdue Indebtedness owned by
the outside world to the American
market has been greatly eXaggerat-
ed in current estimates. Some of
those estimates have been for as
large a sum as $5,000,000,000. AS a
result of thorough investigation, DR..
Williams holds that the actual in
debtedness of this kind cannot eX-
coed $1,000, 100000 and that even
this sum is mostly offset by Ameri-
can purchases of the securities of
other countries.
''The American exporter today
needs to be convinced that foreign
buyers can pay for what they buy
says DR.. Williams. 80 long as
the statement continues to be re-
peated that the world owes us an
unfunded debt Of $4,000 900 to
100000 900 our exporters will
continue to be hesltant about push
ing their foreign sales. The writer
has been for some time convinced
that the current short-term indebt-
edness of the world to this country,
representing unpaid overdue ac-
counts of foreigners which are car
ried by our bankers and exporters,

is much smaller than has been
frequently stated. 1t appears GER
tain that the amount does not eX-
coed a billion dollars, and in all
probability is considerably less. If
this is the case the existence of such
an unfunded balance ought not to
constitute serious obstacle to the
promotion Of our foreign trade.
IAN investigation was based on
q QUESTIONABLE distributed to for
ty-One leading. banks and financial
houses Of our imports of securities
since the armistice. This inquiry
showed that, in addition to the for
eign securities issued in this coun-
try, accurate data on which are
regularly published, we imported
in the three years 1919-1921, $780,
000,0 of foreign stocks and bonds
which had been issued abroad, and
S4S9, 100000 of American securities
formerly held abroad. The COM
bined import of these two sorts of
securities, S1,1O9,0OO,000, was about
twO-thirds as much as the new is

this side in the same three years
Isl 6OIOOO,O0O) but exceeded the
net amount Of such flotations after
subtracting maturing issues ($1,-
341, 000,000) by S763,000,000. This
huge inflow of securities, much
larger than had commonly been
supposed, would serve to pay off
a considerable part of our balance
of merchandise exports and reduce
considerably the supposed uncov-

CRUCES HOTEL WILL
HAVE SECOND STORY
WITH FIFTEEN ROOMS

Especial Correspondence TO me JoIrnai.)
Las Cruces, N. NJ, Aug. 22.-Dr.
T. c. Campbell, proprietor of the
Campbell hotel here, announced
this morning that plans are being
prepared for second story addi-
ton to the building. This will add
fifteen rooms to the hotel. The
cost Of the improvement is placed
at from $4,000 to 10000. Work
is to begin early in September.
THE completion Of the state
highway between FL Paso and Las
Cruces means that hundreds of
cross country tourists and automo-
bilists from various parts of the
southwest will stop off here this
fall and winter" Or. Campbell said.
"In addition there will be many
home and health seekers. some Of
whom will settle in the Mesilla
valley"
Local contractors say the out
look is good for considerable
building in town and valley this
season. The cotton, alfalfa and
grain crops will bring upward of
100000, and It is expected that
growers will also make money on
the pink meat melon crop this
season.
Shippers report that Mesilla val
lev melons are bringing good
prices in central. eastern and
northern markets, The shipping
season here will close next Satur-
day.

WHO'S WHO
IN THE DAYS NEWS
John w. DAVIS

The legal training of John w.
Davis, newly elected president of
the American Bar association, has
served him in many ways. Davis,
former U. S. ambassador to Great
Britain, was admitted to the bar
in 1892, three years after he was
graduated from Washington and
Lee university His first work aft
er becoming a lawyer was as as
sistant professor of law at W and
L. He filled that position for q
year and then opened law offices
in Clarksburg, w. Va. his native
city.
In 1899 he was elected to the
West Virginia house of delegates.
He served as delegate to the dem
ocratic convention in 1904. In 1911
he entered the national legislature
as a congressman and was serving
his second term when he resigned
to become solicitor general of the
United States.
His tact and diplomacy in this
office led President Wilson to name
him ambassador to Great Britain
to succeed Walter Hines Page. He
was serving as head of the Amer
lean delegation at the Berne con-
ference between America and Ger
many on treatment of prisoners
when named ambassador.
He was talked of as a possible
choice of the democrats for the
presidential nomination at the San
Francisco convention.

HAS THE STRIKE BECOME
OBSOLETE?

That the strike was a necessary
factor in our industrial evolution
is now universally recognized.
Large combinations Of labor were
the natural concomitants of large
combinations of trade, Where
small groups of men were employ
ed under the old industrial system,
large groups were employed under
the new,
Capital organized and labor fol-
lowed If economy and efficiency
dictated that capital be organized,
il applied with equal force to labor.
During their inception large COM
binatiOns of trade were frequently
enioined from operating in what
was generally supposed to be tbs
restraint Of trade and were sub
iected to heavy penalties, Anpro-
nrfate laws were enacted from
time In time to meet the changing
conditions and an unprecedented
era of prosperity followed and con-
tinued until the wheels of produc-
tive industry We're converted into
destructive engines Of war

is limited in its application to la

the buving public strikes and buys

and in like manner, when labor
charges prices not in keeping with
the demand for its commodity, by
demanding excessive wages, the

railroads had not been able TO
