Making an Asset of
Difficulties

A great opportunity is now before
American business-the opportunity
of making a big and permanent asset
out Of the very difficulties of the pres
ent situation. The conviction that this
can be done is extremely heattening.
1t is enough to put a lew thrill of life
and activity into every form of in
dustry.
From one point of view the present
situation is by far the most desirable,
the soundest, the sanest, and the most
hopeful this country has ever seen.
Whya Because it brings into bold re-
lief, through sheer necessity, the latent
power to create conditions as we would
like to have them.
The curtailment of Demand for the
products of industry brought us face
to face with the question. hitherto ig-
nored, al to what causes demand.
Then ii was discovered that Demand
was a created thing. and that o of
il could be created in almost any direc-
tion--if enough of the right effort
were applied.

LLOYD GEORGE STILL
HOLDS PREMIERSHIP
AS CRISIS VAN|SHES

LONDON, March 6.-Three de-
velopments Saturday show that hte
British political crisis, threatened
Thursday, has been averted, and
that David Lloyd George has once
more escaped, by a narrow margin,
the necessity of resigning his pre-
miership. They are;
I. Sir George Younger, whose at
tacks on the premier were respon-
sible for Lloyd Georges flare-up
and threat to resign, has made "a
complete retraction, according to
the Cardiff Western Mail.
2. A conference of conservative
leaders, called by the premier for
the weekend at Chequers, his cOun-
try estate, has been proclaimed I'M
necessary, in view of the easier sit
uatiOn.
8. Winston Churchill. Austen
Chamberlain, and Sir Laming Wor-
thington-Evans, in further speech
es, supported the coalition and the
prime minister.
The statement of Sir George
Younger, who, as leader of the die
hards" within the conservative
party ldllhS, WAS LlOyu N6OIS6 >
most bitter opponent, was most sig
nificant.
According to the London CORE
spondent of the Western Mail,
Younger now agrees his assertion
Of conservative independence was a
mistake. 1t was the demand of
Younger and his followers for sep
aration from the coalition and a
return to party politics that precjp-
itated the crisis of Thursday.
Expresses Regret at Speeches
Sir George has expressed regret
that recent speeches of his have
been interpreted as challenging
Lloyd Georges authority, and hopes
the coalition will continue until the
time for a general election arrives,
after which liberals and conserva-
tives can cooperate, according to
the Nails correspondent.
Winston Churchill, speaking at
Loughborough, praised the ex-
cellence of the coalition govern
ment. Churchill, however, expressed
the hope that the coalition even
tually would become the national
party, which he for some time has
had under his hat. The energetic
minister for the colonies has vi
sions of a new party, led perhaps
by Winston Churchill, with pro.
gressive liberal policies.

INQUIRY CONTINUES
INTO CHECK THEFTS

Secret service agents Saturday
continued to sift thoroughly addi-
tional phases of what they charge
was a Well-OrganiZed conspiracy for
defrauding World war veterans of
their compensation checks by steal
ing them from the United States
Veterans Bureau at 433 Peachtree
street.
Four arrests were announced Sat
urday, following an extended inves-
LEGATION which has been in prog
ress since last November, when the
first of the checks stolen from the
bureau was returned after it is al
legged to have been paid over a forg-
ed payee's signature.
Operatives said other persons,
some of whom are in Atlanta, and
some of whom are in other parts
of the county, were being closely
watched and indicated arrests of 9th
err suspects would follow shortly in
their rigid investigation of the thefts
of the checks, which total $4,000 at
present. 1t is expected thefts to-
falling $4,000 will be revealed when
the investigation is completed.
Gerald E. Norris, of 31S South
Ashby street; William Larry Wood,
Jr, of $50 KirkWood avenue; Au-
brey Guffin, of 296 Kirkwood ave
nue., and John o. Locke, of 1O6
La France avenue, were the per
sons whose arrests were announc.
ed Saturday. Norris and Guffin
are held in the Fulton county tow
err; Wood is at liberty under $4,000
bond, and Locke is held by secret
service operatives in Cincinnati,
Ohio, following his arrest there on
Thursday.
1t developed Saturday that Norris,
Wood and Guffin were arrested Feb
ruary IS, but secret service agents
said they had withheld this infor-
nation in order to insure their sue
cess in the investigation.
The checks were stolen from the
mail room of the Veterans Bureau,
in which Norris was employed, ac-
| cording to the secret service men,
who charge that the four men ar
| rested were members of a Well-Or-
ganized conspiracy to steal the
| checks and then get them Cashed
| by forging the payee's names.
Others implicated in the +hefts
who are being watched by the secret
service operatives, are charged with
having aided in disposing of the
| forged checks.
/ The checks were to have been
mailed to World war veterans, many
i of whom are in dire need of the
| funds, which operatives say will now
! be held up until it can be deter
mined just how many checks were
| stolen and Cashed by the conspira-
/ tors.
The three men arrested in At
lanta are between twenty and TWEEN
ty-three years of age. Secret serV-
ice agents charge that a desire to
live beyond their means was in a
measure responsible for their steal
ing and forging the checks.

Concerning this feature, a re-
cent issue of the association Of
ficiai organ remarked:
"Of course, it is understood
that when your association is
. firmly established, ard the as

your association can cooperate
fully with them, q plan can be
worked out for marketing cot

cd. At that time we may beNable
to say something about the price,
but we will always have to let
the purchaser say how much he
shall buy. This means that an
average price will be the only
fair basis of settlement with the
members. 1t would be just as
unfair for one set of members
to get the price prevailing when
their particular cotton was sold,
as for a group of stockholders
in a corporation to select the

where it will be possible for the

their trained experts, to material
ly influence prices, basis mid
ding, but in the meantime, it
seems certain that the associa-
ton here and other associations
operating along the same lines
can vastly help the farmer to re-
ceive the worth of his cotton,

them heretofore have received.

Farmers Hard Hit, Says Babson
Famous Statiscian Tells of Conditions in the Middle
West

expenses to the price which they
receive from their products.
1.-THE most optimistic sign Is the
interest which farmers are showing
in the cooperative movement.
Recent legislation passed by con-
gress permitting farmers to unite
for purchasing and selling will
until abused-be very beneficial, to
this section. Of course there is
nothing wrong in combining whether
it be by manufacturers, merchants,
farmers or Wage-Workers provided
the privilege is not abused. The
ton is not that the farmers are
being permitted to combine, but that
the law does not give the same priv
ilege to all interests with heavy
fine for it's abuse.
Naturally the cities in these west
ern states are not showing up very
well. Sioux City, Iowa $4,000 popu-
lation), is only 60 per cent of normal.
Wichita, Kan, with the same popu.
laton is IS per cent of normal
Duluth, Mimi. 100000 population.
Davenport, Iowa $1,000 population;
Omaha, Neb. 100000 population,
and Peoria, Ill. $4,000 population),
are running from Is per cent to So
per cent of normal. The best city is
Minneapolis, Mimi, 95 per cent of
normal, followed closely by st. Louis
which is 80 per cent of normal,
Kansas City, Mo-, and Omaha, Neb.,
are running about IS per cent.
From these figures it is evident
that it is the west which is causing
the low average figures on the Bah
sonchart.
The index of the Babsonchart
shows no change from last week.
The recent Improvement seems to
be holding very we'll with general
activity at 10 per cent below normal.
Increased building activity may be
expected as the season progresses.
