birmingham October 9.-The early
Liverpool futures were slightly under due
but sales showed an improvement OF 1000
bales over Saturday at an advance OF 81
points in their middlings. Manchester ca
bles stated business in yarns continued
good. Our markets opened is to 20 points
above Saturdays close on accumulated or
ders over the weekend and better inter
fartSar gan & about 20 points on
buying but It these levels there was con .
siderable profit taking, which depressed
values back to the initial figures. The
close. however, was about 20 points, or ~
a bale net gain over Saturdays finals
Spots advanced in sympathy with futures
and reports continue to come in that de,
mand IS good. Southern spot marke&s SOFA
Saturday $1,000 bales. which confirms the
large volume of new buying today, but Of
ferings were light. The weather over ths
cotton region was bullish, the entire belt
was colder with rains, some heavy. These
rains will not only halt picking, nut dam
age the grade. There was no parelcu va
chases on setbacks.-s. r. Stewart s. Co.
HUBBARD's LETTER
New York, October s.-(special.)-
Though the Liverpool market was about
as due, our market opened some 20 points
above Saturdays CLOSE. Hedge seiiing
was lacking during the opening. possibly
due to the fact that rains were preva-
lent in some cotton centers over the week
end which delayed the movement.
There was considerable Gaining % co.eo.'
by the trade and more general buying.
However during the first hour, there was
very heavy liquidation. At one time the
market, however. advanced over 22c for
December but this point met consider
able selling from the south. 1t is gem
eral belief that a reaction Is due. but we
feel these reactions will be short lived as
demand from tho dry goods centers and
mills will cause spinners to enter the
market on any setback.
The market closed about 10 points from
the highest OF the day.-Hubbard Bros.

Public Economy Motto of
Republican Administration
Operating Expenses of Government Re-
duced Nearly One Half by Republican
Congress Working in Harmony With
Executive Department
o. 8. REPRESENTATIVE MARTIN b. MADDEN
ULIINOIS), CHAIRMAN HOUSE COMMITTEE
ON APPROPRIATIONS

Any one who has followed the con-
duet Of the Government since Mr..
Harding's induction into the presi-
dency must marvel at the rapidity
with which the cost of government has
been reduced It is the constant aim
of the administrative and legislative
branches of the government, all in con-
troll of the Republican Party, to ad-
minister the affairs of the Government
on a strictly business basis, expend-
ing not a single dollar for any purpose
not essential to the Nations needs.
The one thing on which all are agreed
is rigid economy in Government ex-
penditure, and nothing can more forci-
bly, portray the story Of accomplish
ment achieved in this direction than
the statement that costs have been
reduced to the extent above indicated.
One billion, five hundred and seven
teen million have been expended on
the care Of the wounded and sick sol
diers of the World War up to Febru-
a1y 1st, last, indicating that nothing
has been left undone to provide for
! the care and comfort of the men who
gave themselves to the country in its
| hour Of need.
The country Is to be congratulated
on having Mr.. Harding In the presi,
deney. The problems handed down to
him from the war complicated though
they are, have been solved in the il.
terest of the people. He has had the
vision to see, the Patriotism to do, and
the courage and ability to achieve His
+! devotion to the Nations needs has
been the admiration of all who have
| watched him. He has been jealous
painstaking, patriotic, untiring and I'M
| selfish, and he has had and will have
the hearty cooperation of the Con
grsss in his efforts to put the country
on a stable basis. Nineteen hundred
and twenty-three will find America the
only country IN the world living within
| its income The people have reason tG
rejoice at this accomplishment of theil
President and their Congress.

likewise serves as an agency through
which the services of these great
public institutions can be made readily

BY J. w. CLOVERDALE
Secretary American Farm Bureau
Federation

Editors Note.-J. W. Cloverdale is
secretary Of the American Farm Bu-
reau Federation, an organization that
seems to be combination of an agri-
sultural union and farm Board Com
MERGE. After one has read his article
one may do some thinking on a line
very different than the one suggested
by the daily Washington stories of the
Agricultural Bloc" Mr.. Cloverdale
seems to know what he is talking
about and there is a strong suspic-
ion that his words are not all propa-
ganda for the farmer, either.

The estimates submitted by Presi-
dent Wilson for the conduct Of the
Government for the fiscal year 1921
amounted to $3.50, 100000, and the ap-
propriations made under these esti'
mates by Republican Congress
amounted to s4,7S9, 100000, showing an
approximate saving in appropriations
for that year of s1,400,000,0 900.
The estimates submitted by Presi-
dent Wilson for the FISCAL year 1922
were ,6OO,000,000, and the appropria.
tons made under these estimates by
q Republican Congress were reduced
to s4,O65, 100000, showing an approx
mate saving of $1,000, 100000
The estimates for the fiscal year
1928 submitted by President Harding
amount to 1888, 100000, and the ap-
propriations, when completed, will
probably be s3.500,000,O 900, or 1858. 000,-
900 less than the estimates.
The people of the United States
should understand that for many years
to come it will not be possible to run
the Government for less than $4,000,
100000 per annum. This seems like
q very large sum, but when it is real
lied that we have three fixed charges
consisting of interest on the public
debt, sinking fund, and maintenance
of the Veterans Bureau, which were
created by the war and amount to ap
proximately $4,000, 100000 per annum
it will be seen that the other expense:
of the Government have been reduced
BY the Republican administration tt
$500, 100000.
The annual cost of the Government
before the war was S1,250,000.000
Thus it will be seen that the presen
cost aside from the f1xea charges re
ferred to, is but $3.50, 900 in excess
Of pre-war cost, and at least $150,000
600 Of this is accounted for by thu
normal increase in the business OF thu
postal service, leaving but 100000
of expense for ordinary purposes il
excess of pre-war costs.

Speaking of manufacturers VS.. farm
ers, the December record of whole
sale prices, as made public on Jan. 19
by the United States Bureau of Labor
Statistics shows that in comparison
to the farmers 13 per cent advance
ment since 1913 cloth and clothing is
still 85 per cent above normal. Build
ing material is 103 per cent higher and
household furnishings are still touring
the zenith at 11S per cent above pre-
war prices. Fuel and lighting cost 81
per cent more and chemicals and
drugs are 81 per cent above. The
farmers, who are soberly getting to-
gether to see what can be done about
it, are at the bottom of the list with
13 per cent.
Against Sales Tax.
Agriculture has been against the

hardest the consuming middle classes

grain exchanges merely takes away
unfair privileges of two other classes.

fund is no gift. 1t is a loan which
requires interest and credit. The far

long time turnovers is accommodated
in order that he may continue to pro-
duce with once-a-year sales.
While legislation and transportation
are subjects in which the farmers are
vitality interested, the real reason for
organization, and the one in which the
Farm Bureau is most active, is the adj
justment of the farmers marketing

he has neglected, 10 these many years!
The Farm Bureau is voluntary CO.

It's purpose is to assist in making the

On account of large expenditures
incident to the recent war and the
Increase in cost of State and local
government, taxes have been greatly
increased and people in all sections
of the country are Directing more and
more to paying taxes. The average
taxpayer has little idea of govern
mental expenditures and is inclined
to blame the State Government for
any increase which may be levied
against his property. The fact is,
that outside of Federal taxes, those
that are the largest are to a certain
extent local taxes which the people
themselves could regulate in many
instances if they would but make the
effort.
Generally speaking, the greater
portion of money raised by taxation is
for the support of schools and for
municipal government. In this state
each $4,000 paid by the taxpayer in
our two largest cities is distributed as
follows: City Government 1898,
schools $29.40, County Government
$17.57 and State Government 1910.
1t will be seen from the above that
the cost of State Administration is
comparatively small which is also
true of the county, while the cost of
maintaining a city is far out of
proportion to that of either the State
or County. 1t appears that the
smaller the subdivision of govern
| ment, the greater the cost of the
same
Schools Need More.
AS to schools, there is little chance
Of reducing expenses as we are de-
manding and expecting better schools
and, in fact, it would be very poor
policy to fail to provide funds that
they may be properly financed and
improved. While the cost of sup
porting them is great, no right think
ing person should object to paying his
share, and no expenditure of public
money will in the end bring greater
returns.
Necessarily the cost of government
has increased in proportion to the in
creased cost Of living and everything
costs more than it did a few years
ago. Consequently both officials and
employees must be paid higher salaries
or wages, supplies are costing more
and it is much more expensive to care
for an inmate Of penal or charitable
institution. Further, new and in
creased demands are constantly being
made upon the State, and the State
today is engaging in many activities
that it did not formerly. Perhaps the
greatest burden that the States have
assumed is the building of highways
The Federal Highway Acts have
caused every State to organize High
way Commissions which are necessar-
lily large and expensive organization
and which are spending vast sums OF
money This to large extent trans
fers to the State an expense which
was, formerly borne by the County o.
local community and while it neces-
sarily increases the State expeddi-
lures, there is no question but that il
is bringing about better highways
and is saving large sums of money

Night and Day Dollars
BY JOHN BLAKE

DUT dollar TO work and IT becomes
L your day and night servant for the
rest of your lifc-provided. Of course,
you find the right job for it.
AS we'll throw it into the street as
find the wrong job. for IL will leave
your employ in the end anyway and
give you considerable worry while it IS
working for you.
TIIE intelligent man, whether he is
l. working for himself or for some
body else. sets as many dollars to work
as he can save.
| sually. II he knows but little Of in
vcstments. he gives his dollar a place
with the Government. which means that
he and the Government become its joint
employers.
The Government finds abundant
things for the dollar to do and the
dollars owner Is sure of settled in
come from it. which averages about
four or four and half cents every
year.
Not great deal. that four and half
cents, when you have only n hundred
dollars, but quite Il little sum when
you have ten thousand of them.
WELL invested in Government bonds
w or securities. about which there is
no doubt. your dollar will work for you
night and day.
Week days and Sundays and holidays.
it is piling UP the interest that means
independence for YOU by and by.
When you got that interest YOU can
put il TO work in the same place as the
original dollar. and if you continue TO
do that you will soon be surprised to see
how you are nearing independence.
1t is sort Of n b"nignant circle.
with all the little dollars going round
and round, and each one of yours drop
ping four and half cents into your
pocket every revolution.
1t is hard work to save them. Of
course, but the sacrifice is usually
worth while.
