POOLING SYSTEM
USED IN OKLAHOMA
Is FULLY EXPLAINED
Continued from Page u

additional funds are distributed
by the association to it's mem
berS. The Oklahoma aSsocia-
ton, as shown, has paid SIS per
bale to each of it's members in
addition to the initial advance
of $50 per bale.
AS the association still has
much cotton on hand-forty
pools in operation, have said
it follows that additional adj
Vances will be made to mem
bers as additional cotton is sold.
but in no circumstances will
final settlements be made until
the several pools finally have
been closed out.
1t is true probably that the
association could, if it so de-
sired, dispose of all of it's cotton
today, tomorrow or at almost
any time. 1t is equally as true
that the association probably
could have sold all of the 1000
bales it received within a few
days after the last bale was in,
but
Such action would have been
contrary to a fundamental fea-
ture of the organization, viz,
the orderly marketing of the
crop, instead of dumping. Had
all of the cotton been sold IN a
bulk, the members would have
suffered financial losses, even
though it had been sold in even
running lots as to grade and sta
pie.
In the cooperative movement,
the buyer and not the seller
takes the initiative, which ms
a sound, economic idea. The
association believes that it has
a superior commodity. and eX-
perience thus far has satisfied
it's officers that prospective buy
ers will seek them when they
are in the market for cotton of
uniform quality and in COM
mercial quantities.
Not Holding Scheme
The association is not now ell
gagged in an effort, nor has it
heretofore been engaged in an
effort TO influence the price of
cotton by a holding movement.
Carl Williams made 1t very
plain and very clear in my first
interview with him that the CO.
operative cotton marketing
movement is not a cotton-holding
scheme.
1--WE are prepared to sell and
do sell as the market demands
our commodity" he said. But
we are not trying to force upon
the exporters or the spinners a
lot of cotton when they do not
need it, and their business is in
no position to absorb our COM
modify"
The cooperative cotton mar
keting movement, of course, is
now in its sWaddl;ng clOthes-an
infant, scarcely nine months old
and the association in Okla
hOna realizes that it could not,
if it tried, control or materially
influence the New York and
New Orleans cotton markets.
Before the movement can pos
Sibly have much of an apprecia-
BILE effect on the price of cotton,
basis middling, it will be neces-
sary for the entire cotton belt to

Dry Goods Trading Was
OF Small Proportions

NEW YORK, March 4.-Trading in dry
goods was of small proportions today and
devoted mainly to orders for filling in pur-
poses. Prices, however, were fairly we'll
maintained although some softening was
in evidence in some constructions without
material change in quotations. There was
IL fair demand for narrow print cloths but
the G4x60s and 6SX72s were dull. Sheet
ings moved but in small lots. The lighter
SateenS continued in demand and trading in
fine goods very limited. Trading in
raw silks and in the finished products was
extremely light Buyers of finished goods
took some odd lots Manufacturers are hold
ing off from purchases of raw silk in the
hope that prices will drop still further.

rDR|VE ON SLACK:ERS
GIVEN NEW START

WASHINGTON, March "A
fresh impetus has been given to the
apprehension and punishment Of
draft deserters during the World
war.
The action of congress in passing
a few days ago a joint resolution
regarding the status of deserters
from the military and naval serv-
ice of the United States during the
war, has done two important things,
in the. opinion of officers of the
war department tonight:
1. It has made absolutely alright
! the authority of the wa" department
to continue it's work of seeking out
and furnishing these deserters.
2. 1t has indicated the policy of
Nthe war department in undertaking
and carrying on this work.
The department will continue its
hunt for the slackers and will make
additional efforts to prosecute them.
So far. comparatively few of the
100000 on the Stacker list have been
punished, and only a slightly larger
number apprehended. The total
number apprehended is !, 103, while
500 have surrendered, making a to-
tai of 1912.
Definite figures are lacking as to
the total number punished.
The congressional resolution in
question was passed by the house
March /, and it is expected to be
signed by the president in a few
days.
1t was drawn up by the judge adj
vOcate generals office of the war
department, and it's passage was re-
quested of congress as necessary in
the departments campaign against
the draft deserters. The resolution
has the effect of continuing the
culpability of draft deserters until
March IA, 1925.
The resolution specifically pro-
vides that this ameniability to pros
ecution and trial of draft deserters
! shall not terminate before the expi-
! ration of three years after the date
of the presidents proclamation of
peace, which was on November IA,
1921.
1t is understood that the resolu-
ton was made necessary because of
the legal theory that after the ter
minatiOn of q statute, in this case
the draft act, persons subject to
criminal action under it are auto
matically pardoned.
Now, this resolution will make alb
solute the authority of the war de-
partment to continue it's work of
bringing to justice the draft desert
ers, and while a time limitation has
been put on it by the provision for
the three-year period in the resolu-
ton, it is the opinion at the war de-
partment that this time can be eX-
tended later if necessary.
