paid more for cotton than it
could be sold for. This condition
, made it particularly desirable to
the banker to have the cotton
sold at once.
1.-THE plan of marketing fol-
lowed by the Oklahoma Cotton
Growers association calls for
marketing the cotton after the
quality has been established.
This is necessary in order that
the grower may get the full val.
ue of his cotton when heN sells.
1t was not possible this year,
under the conditions already
outlined, to sell rapidly enough
to take advantage Of the wild
market. y
"Under the plan of orderly
marketing the association does
not set an arbitrary price, but it
does endeavor to get a price
that will let the producer stay in
business. In order that this may
be accomplished, the cotton
must be sold throughout the
year as the consumers want it.
The consumer Will not pay a
price for something with which
he is already amply supplied.
''Since these principles are
fundamentally sound, and as
this plan of marketing demon
strates it's practicability, we are
sure that the bankers in Okla
l1oma and elsewhere will coop
crate to the extent of making
their paper mature as their Gus
toners may Nope to have re-
turns. In the adjustment of the
loan period, the bankers will be
serving themselves as well as
<their customers. They will be
enabled to make maximum loans
with lessened hazard and a mini

will be more evenly distributed

NO MORE FEDERAL

WASHINGTON, March 1.-Two
important. changes in government
policy toward the nations railroads
became effective Wednesday,
The section Of the transportation
act fixing 6 per cent as the return on
railroad properties which railroads
are entitled to earn under interstate
commerce commission regulations
expired. AAlso there expired the Pc
riod during which railroads were
CONTROLLED by the government dur.
ing the war are entitled to ask gov.
eminent loans to aid them in con-
Ffinuing operations after return to
private management.
The per cent return clause, gem
orally called the guarantee provision,
is superseded by the transpor-
tation actl provisions which here
after require the interstate commerce.
commission to make rates that will
give railroads reasonable return
on the value of property used in
transportation" The commission is
expected, therefore, to. define for
itself what earnings constitute rea-
sonable returns and to make rates
accordingly. The subject of the def
milton of reasonable return has al
ready been. taken up formally by the
commission for the purpose of Sc
curing arguments from railroads and
interested parties to proceedings be.
fore it\ in relation to rate regula-
ton.
Applications. from railroads desir-
ing the government loans have been
pouring into the commission in con-
siderable numbers during the last
few days in the endeavor to get in
before the Limitation began. Among
roads asking for monetary aid today
were the Chicago, Peoria and St.
Louis, which sought $1,000000, for
new equipment and repairs, and the
Memphis, Dallas and Gulf, which
asked $246,782, half of which is to
be used for new equipment and the
balance for improvement of its line.
There are also in the files of the COM
mission, it is understood. number
of applications which will be made
public after being recorded.

CHICAGO, March Sit was a big scalp

sharp bulge at the start on general buying.
Heavy selling by long interests developed
on the bulge. Offerings finally put
weight on the market. which resulted in

sellers then bought back the wheat and
caused another rally. Export sales of
500 900 bushels of Manitoba were reported
over night and Winnipeg reported sales of
eight loads for export. Montreal reported
sales of flour to the United Kingdom. All
primary markets reported a broader mill
inS\ demand for wheat. Liverpool futures
closed Sid higher. Cash wheat premiums
were unchanged.
Favorable crop reports: together with
heavy selling OF realize profits, brought baout
declines today in the value of wheat, al

a wide reputation and is highly

a wide reputation and is highly
respected by Oklahoma bankers
for his business sagacity, adj
mits that the association, this
season, may have worked some
injury to bankers, but he be-
lieves that the bankers have it
very largely within their power
to remedy the situation.
Mr.. Stealey was entirely
frank in discussing this phase
of the associations activity, as
he was in giving me access to
all of the records and other
facts relating to the manage
ment and operation Of the sys-
tenn.
Reply to Bankers
1t is evident from his remarks,
herewith quoted, that he has
made a close study of every fea-
ture of cooperative marketing
as it applies to cotton and to the
requirements of cotton farmers
and bankers in the cotton belt.
He said;
practically the only real
criticism offered by our banker
friends to the operation Of the
Oklahoma Cotton Growers as
ISOLATION is the statement that
the pools run too long and that
injury has therefore been work
ed on bankers who have been
forced to wait longer than they
otherwise would for repayment
of loans made by them to cotton
farmer members Of the aSSocia-
ton.
1--WE agree that in the opera
ton of our organization 9>Sthis
year, we have worked a serious
injury to some bankers who, be-
cause Of the condition in which
\ the cotton farmer has found
himself the past two years, has
been hard pressed for cash. We
admit this in the same manner
and for the same reason that,
surgeon says to his patient thatN
an operation is likely to hurt.
Finding themselves in sit.
uation which brings them near
to unnecessary ruin, the bankers
must do one of two things. They
must either apply the remedy
that promises relief against
frozen collateral in their note
cases, or sit idly by and let the
: impending ruin settle upon
them. Should they take the lat
ter course simply because the
( remedy requires some little adj
justment of established methods
of doing business?
Heretofore, the bankers
notes have matured with the
cotton crop produced by farm
ers who have had no marketing
facilities and who have been
dumping their cotton ION the
market as soon as their crop is
picked, regardless of price All
that is necessary to market with
the demand is for the man who
bets on the farmer making a
crop by loaning him money to
produce it, to make his loans
mature during the marketing
season.
Marketed on Quality
I'VE grant, of course, that
conditions are especially difficult
during this first year because
cotton matured early and while
it was first going onto the mar
ket, the market went wild. Dur

Wool Continues Dull
With Price Steady

BOSTON, March 2.-The wool
market here continued to exhibit
dullness but prices continued to just
about hold their own. Manufacture
ers were not buying, in any large
amounts. The tone of the market,
however. was made somewhat more
firm by reports that wooden manu-
facturers were considering strongly
an advance in prices in the near
future. 1t is asserted in some quar-
tiers that the large manufacturers
have Low taken what business for

goods which will be constructed of

PACT RESERVATION
|NSURES APPROVAL
OF THE j. s. SENATE
BY DAVID LAWRENCE
Ieased Wire Service to The Journal.
downright. 1922

WASHINGTON, March 3.-Sen-
ator Brandegee's reservation to the
four-power treaty will be adopted.
1t contains President Harding's exact
words in the address made the SEN
ate on submitting the pact. 70 vote
down. the reservation may be con-
strued as an affirmation of the argyll
ment that the fcur-power treaty is
go to war.
This is the situation as the debate
on the treaty begins. Ratification
with the -Brandegee reservation,
seems assured. Without it, there is
danger of defeat for the treaty.
The views of the most of the sem
atOrs who advocate the Brandegee
reservation have been given to this
correspondent. To understand the
reasons which actuate them, It is
necessary to study the exact text of
the treaty as well as the reservation
which reads as follows:
"The United States understands
that under the statement in the pre-
amble, or under the terms of this
treaty, there is no commitment to
armed force, no alliance, no obliga-
ton to join in any defense"
First, the senators who favor it.
make it clear that they do not for a
moment question Mr.. Harding's in
depreciation of the treaty, but they
want his Interpretation made a part
of the ratifyings resolution itself so
that the rest of the world and flu
ture generations will not misunder
stand. At present the Interpretation
merely is an executive statement and
the senate has not yet uttered its
understanding of the treaty.
Effect of Reservation
If the Brandegee reservation is
adopted by the senate included in the
instrument of ratification and ex-
changed with the other powers who
signed the treaty, and they do not
protest that their understanding is
different them the other nations
never could claim hat the United
States was under ANY obligation to
join in defense" of their rights
in relation to their insular posses
sions and insular dominions in the
region of the Pacific ocean,"
Senators who take this view point
out that if the treaty without the
reservation means what President
Harding says 1T does there can De
no valid objection to letting the
treaty say SO by means Of a clarity
ing reservation.
The preamble of the treaty de-
clares that one of the purposes for
which the, treaty is made is -the
maintenance of their rights in rela
ton to their insular possessions" in
the Pacific ocean. Article two says
that eff the said rights are threat
ened by the aggressive action of any
other power, the contracting parties
shall communicate with one another
to arrive at an understanding ,as to
the most efficient measures to be
taken, Jointly or separately to meet
the exigencies of the particular s,tua-
tion."
Now it is the view of many-sena-
tors that when aggressive action"
occurs the conference Of the powers
does not by any means meet merely
to decide whether they shall take
any measures.A They communicate
only Sin order to arrive at an under
standing as to the most efficient
