500 Bales of Cotton
Sold In Americas

AMERICUS, Ca. April Anew
life was injected into the Americas
cotton market here Monday, when
sale of 500 bales good middling
staple was recorded. This is the
largest lot sold here during several
months past, and the staple, it is
said, brought a shade more than the
prevailing price of seventeen cents
for good middling. The lot, which
was purchased by G. H. Janney, a
Montgomery buyer for an Alabama
mill, graded good middling and was
shipped "flat" from Americas. Amer
icus warehouses still hold large
stocks of cotton, with growers ap-
parently inclined to reject prevailing
quotations.

PROTECT BUSINESS,
IS SENATORS IDEA

WASHINGTON, April 4.-Busi-
ness can prosper only if it knows
what paths it may tread safely and
honestly, without fear Of prosecu-
ton for violating this or that anti
trust measure. If business Is to
become normal again it must have
some federal source to which it may
turn for guidance so that it may
not unwittingly be hauled across
the Goals for violating laws which
it has no desire to transgress.
This is the idea actuating Sena.
tor Edge, New Jersey, in promoting
senatorial probe Of trade associa-
tions and cooperative organizations,
with a view to passage Of bill
authorizing the federal trade com.
mission to give such bodies adequate
counsel and guidance.
"My idea," he said today, sis not
based in any way upon any attempt
to circumvent the trust laws or
existing supreme court decisions.
Business is willing to respect these
laws and DEGREES; that is water
over the dam. But business can't
flourish if it is ever fearful Of prose
cution when it operates through as
sociations, the purposes Of which
are not monopolistic but instead
really beneficial.
ST am not asking that the anti
trust laws be amended, but l
would like to see congress pass this
bill, because business wants to
know what it can do.
eff trade associations know,
from the federal trade commission,
what paths they may justly tread.
then business can go ahead. These
associations are Of advantage, not
alone to the producer but also to
the consumer, for they lower costs
Of production and hence of the fin
ished product; stabilize conditions;
let the big and little producer know
what buying, selling and manufac.
turing conditions prevail and give
the public the benefit of knowl-
edge of these conditions. System
is substituted for speculation. If
business can be told just how far
it may proceed, then it can come
out Of the depression which has
marked it. But so long as it is
hampered at every step, it is bound
to be cautious to a degree"
Mr.. Edge indicated that the fed
eral trade commission was favor.
able to the bill. 1t had not passed
thereon officially, but one Of it's
associates had helped frame the
measure, he said.

That Field Marshal Sir Henry Hughes
Wilson. one of the most brilliant of
Britain's soldiers, assassinated in the
doorway of his London home, should
be regarded as a victim of the political
struggle in Ireland. is natural enough,
considering his position as military ad-
wiser to Sir James Craig, premier of the
Ulster government; in view Of the Hib
ernian names of his two assallants,
taken almost red-handed in the act of
shooting him down, and by reason OF
the further fact that one OF the pair
is revealed by his papers as Il member
OF the Irish republican army in arms
against the forces OF which Sir Henry
was the head.
II is fair to say that the Dublin re-
publican leaders were thrown into CON
