Women's Luncheon

Resolution for a Real
Democrat as Candidate
Fr,,,al pi,patch 70 me Tribsrs


POUGHKEEPSIE. June 22.-The
Hears, campaign for the Governorship
was attacked to-day in resolution in
,roduced by Mrs. Henry MorSenthau
and unanimously passed at the Demo-
cratic women's luncheon and meeting
held at the Nelson House.
1.-TWO years ago" says the reSolu'
ton, I'VE had a great President and a
great Governor. We may not have
agreed with them always in detail, but
we know they had vision, strength and
high principles. There were certain
men in tho Democratic party who
sought 10 discredit the administration,
and especially the Governor, by the
lowest type Of propaganda. We, the
Democratic women Of DJtchess Coun-
~. welcome honest criticism OF our
party, but repudiate insidious propa-
ganda. and I should therefore like 10
propose tho following resolution;
Resolved: That we urge in the
state convention, the nomination OF
such candidates as are truly represon-
,ative Of the principles Of the Demo-
cratic party. who supported the Demo.
cratic national and state tickets IN
1920. and who are honorable and hon.
ored members OF the communities In
which tnsy live. To such candidates.
and 70 fueh alone, We pledge our loyal
support"
About fifty women were present at
tho meeting, over which Mrs. Morgen-
than presided. Mrs. Franklin ID
Roosevelt was present. together with
Mrs. Wiiliam Alhro. Miss Albro Miss

E00D WEATHER IS
 gAJSE OF DECLINE
 lNCOTTON MARKET
Quick Stoppage of July Ten ders in New York Caused Great Sterngth of
 Week
By Associated Press

New Orleans, July 2.-FaVorable weather over the belt and liquidation of long contracts prior to bureau day kept the cotton market at net de- clines during the greater part of last week. There were periods of steadi- ness and fairly strong recoveries, but they were not carried very far. From net declines of 60 to 95 points the market rose to net advances of 20 to 31 points. finally closing at net losses of to 21 points. October traded as low as 20.30s, as high as 21.35c and closed at 20.99c a pound. In the spot department middling lost 50 points in the net results. closing at 21.50c which price, compared with lie as the closing prices at the end of this week year ago.
 The greatest strength was dis played Tuesday following the quick stoppage of first July tenders in the New York market. They were esti- mated at as high as 15o,o0o bales and many southern spot firms were among those who stopped the mo- tices.
 Whole Market Affected
 The eagerness with which spot in- terests took up this cotton affected the whole market favorable and put prices to their highest of the week. Outside of this development in the spot end of the market were not of great interest. South Texas reported the movement of new crop bales, in a small way, leading to the hope that spot firms would have fairly large early movement to work on but, over the belt generally, supplies were so extremely small as greatly to affect spot trading.
 The hot and dry weather of the week, relieved only by light and scattered showers. was generally re- garded as highly beneficial to the crop and led to the general claim that the condition of the crop was higher than on June 25, the date of he second condition report of the ,eason which Is to be issued at 11:30 o'clock, New Orleans time, Monday morning, and which can hardly help being the most prominent event in the coming week. The many private Bureau reports and guesses from jn- dividuals which appeared this last week made 1t apparent that the di- viding line of opinion for the pend- ing report, as regards condition, Is Just about 75 per cent of normal, while expectations regarding acreage are that an increase of about per cent will be reported. Expectations regarding the indicated yield fig ures average around 11,200,000 bales. The highest private condition report is 75.0, while the lowest is TOO. The figures will compare with 69.6 as the condition of the crop on May 25, this year, and the 10-year average for June 25 of 76.9.
 Tuesday will be a holiday.

Il
 uniontown, Pa, July 2.-Prestdent and Mrs. Harding, en route to their home in Marion, O., arrived late today at a hotel in the mountains near here for an overnight stay. Tomorrow they will continue their automobile trip and expect to reach their desti- nation by night.
 Most of today was spent travelling up and down the mountains of Penn sylvania and Maryland between Get tysburg and here.
 The President, at 9:3o a. m.. left the Gettysburg battlefield, where yesterday he witnessed reproduc tion of Pickett's charge by marines encamped there, and did not reach the hotel near here until shortly be- fore dark. En route, the President. accompanied by Mrs. Harding, turned from the main highway and went to the home Of Senator William E. Crow, who has been i'll practically all of the time since he succeeded the late Senator Knox. They spent half an hour at Senator Crows home.
 Rain fell in torrents shortly after the presidential party. travelling in Il automobiles, left Cumberland, Md. where a stop had been made for lunch. At reduced speed, the ma chimes for the remaining 40 miles of the trip crept up and down steep curving roads, made slippery by rain. The President and Mrs. Harding. rid ing in & limousine, were not incon- venienced by the downpour.
 A severe electrical storm broke over the Gettysburg carfS last night not long after the President had re- turned to his quarters from an open sir motion picture show. The camp ground was so soggy this morning that tractors were required to pull automobiles used by members of the Presidents party to the road The rain also caused cancellation of a pa- rade which was to have been held in MT. Harding's honor.

Of course, there are experts in New York, but how many really come from the city proper? Not so in the south, where every body dances simply for the sake of dancing The southerners do not take to what is called popular dance-the dance that Is offensive. They do all the modern dances in an artistic manner, and when 1t comes to grace. I must say 1t is cer- tainly a pleasure to play for such dancers"
 The only mishap was the loss of gold plated saxophone. worth about $500. The player, at the con- clusion of the concert given by the w. S. Y. radio people. left his instru- ment fin his hotel room. Upon his return the big horn was gone. After having all the hotel people search for it. the police were told about the loss, and they are busy. This instrument was one of the most perfectly bal anced in tone there was. and had at tracted the attention of many mu- sicians.
