ALLIES TO DECIDE
MOVES TO FOLLOW
STATEMENT TO BE MADE THAT
POLAND WAS ATTEMPTING
TO ASSIST IN RECONSTRUC-
TdON OF RUSSIA REPLY
FROM POLAND

Genoa, April 27.-Announcement
by the British delegation that a
meeting of the signatories of the
Versailles treaty will be held in
Genoa within a fortnight to deter
mine upon action in the event of
Germany's failure to meet her rep
arations obligations at the end of
May was the chief feature Of today's
conference activities. This call for a
meeting of the allies was inspired by
Premier Poincare's Bar LIE Due ad-
dress intimating that France was
prepared to act alone if the allies
failed to support her in enforcing
the treaty.
Poland replied to Russia's protest
charging the Poles with violating
treaties with Russia and seeking to
undermine Russian sovereignty. The
Polish reply asserted that the Poles
were endeavoring to assist in the re-
construction of Russia and had no
thought of violating their treaty
agreements with Russia.
While the leading statesmen as
sembled in Genoa were consulting
each other on what kind of reply
they should make to the Bolshevik
counter-proposal and what would be
the probable scope of the non-ag-
gression pact which it IS proposed to
submit to the conference. the ex-
perts here from many lands were
hurrying on with their technical
work connected with economics, f.
nance and transport.
The transport commission in f.
nal session recommended the urgen-
cy of the powers adopting all pos
sible measures in concert to improve
the transport system of Russia. The
league of nations was asked to in.
vite the nations, whether members
or non-members Of the league, to
work together on technical matters
furthering the cause of transport.
The experts insist that important
things have already been done al
Genoa in the way of improving con
ditions; these have largely taker

rency and general financial meeting'

COTTON INDUSTRY
HAS HOED HARDROW.
HEAD OF MANUFACTURERS
TALKS OF TRIALS IN NEW
ENGLAND.-NAMES THREE
GREAT CAUSES WHICH FoRc-s
ED GOODS DOWN g

Boston, April 27.-Trying times in Z
the cotton industry due to downward
readjustment and the strike situation
were described in an address by
President Russell B. Lowe of Fitch!
burg, at the convention of the Ma
tional Association of Cotton Manu-
facturers here today. At the same I
time he expressed the hope that the
darkest period was passing and that
Tthe next few months would carry the ;
industry into better times with more ;
employment and larger and more
stabilized market.
He named three great causes which
have "forced goods down and brought
about the present situation. First, un-
satisfactory prices received from
crops which reduced the purchasing
power of the farmer. Second, unem-
ployment which has cut the purchas-
ing power of millions Of consumers.
Third, the imports of foreign goods
which on March were 99,O0O,000
square yards for the previous eight
months. "These are enormous factors
and it is difficult to say which is the
worst" he continued.
"a wage reduction has been neces-
sary since last December and every
buyer and manufacturer knows it."
Labor, continued Mr.. Lowe, may
be asked ".if cloth goes up why
should we go down."
Because labor in England will
probably be down 20 per cent before
we are, labor in England can out sell
you in the United States, and is do
ing it now. They can more than do 1t
with their reduction. A speedy pass
age of the tariff is the only way to
prevent even greater punishment than
now is going on.
eve have not kept our place in the
cotton trade. For ten years now the
south has used more cotton than the
north. New England is losing con-
troll of one of the great industries of
the country but New England does
not take it seriously. =
"Now as to the future. I recently
took a trip to Chicago and st. Louis
and found goods accumulating in the
jobbing houses. One buyer said the
strikes were a blessing to him and
a president of jobbing house said
trade was the worst now in his forty
years of business experience.
"The coming crops are the next
bright spot. What will they be? the
answer goes long way to forecast
ing the future. Unemployment is get
ting less but the coal strike may
change that. Purchasing power from
these great sources cannot be much
until late summer, anyway. This is
the opinion in the distributing CEN
ters. The tariff should cut imports in
two. Allowing in that case, 100000
square yards more a month to be
provided by American labor"
