NEW YORK. Oct. 11.-The cotton
market showed renewed tirmness
during today's early trading, owing
TO relatively firm cables, apprehen-
sions of unsettled weather in the
Southwest over tomorrow's adjourn
nent, and bullish spot advices. The
opening was 20 TO 80 points higher
on all months except September,
which was unchanged. December
advanced to 2S24 and january to
e7.70, or about so to "a Lnints above
Yesterdays closing quotations. A
good deal of the buying was attriDut-
ed to covering, but further trade
demand was also reported. and adj
vices reaching here from the south
said there was good demand tor
spot cotton.
The buying continued with the adj
vice extending to 1855 for ecember
contracts and 27.76 for January, or
S9 to As points net higher. There
was heavy realizing at these figures,
which represented a recovery of
about 125 points from recent low
levels, and prices reacted some 10 or
20 points from the best. The under
tone, however, remained firm DUR
Ing the noon hour on rumors OF an

ahead OF its June record for 1922 with
a gain OF IL per cent on total travel
of 1920 in June 1923. as compared
with 21S0 In June 1922.
The motor travel gain was 95 per
cent over the 1922 figures and the
rail travei gain was II per cent over
the June record for 1922.
Compared with the travel for 1921
the gains made by the Eastern en-
trance for the season up to July 1.
show slightly less than 100 per cent.
indicating the rapid strides being made
as a result of the advertising of the
most scenic seventy miles in the
world" and the reputation Wyoming
is getting for good roads.
The increase of business in the park
from all entrances shows a gain OF
2555 peop'e. Huge parties of Shrincrs
at the opening OF the 1879 season
broke all rail records for that year.
There were no such parties in 1928
hence the rail travel shows a loss Of

UNDERWOOD OUT FOR
THE NOMINATION

There is no longer any doubt that
Oscar Underwood will be a formid-
able candidate in the national Dem
ocratic convention of next year.
Next to McAdoo and Alfred E.
Smith, he would probably have the
greatest following. The Demo-
cratic party is fortunate in the ma
terial that is being pressed forward.
Either of these statesmen would
prove strong before the people and,
what is more to tho point, either
vZuId be a commanding presence in
The White House.
But for the religious issue which
unliappily has been raised, Cover
nor Smith would have first cali.
1t is doubtful II any other name
would come before the convention.
He is acknowledged to be the best
vote getter that has appeared in
public life within our time and few
mon in history have hud his train
ing in stutecraft before reaching
middle age.

ALIEN ACITATORS

Every good American, whether
native or naturalized, will go along
with President Harding when he
says: 81 would like to acclaim the
day when there is no room in Am
erica anywhere for those who defy
the law, and those who seek our hos
pitaiity for the purpose of destroy
ing our institutions should be de-
ported or held securely behind
prison walls. This land of ours has
little to fear for those who attack
from outside our borders, but we
must guard very zealously from
those who work within our borders
to destroy the very institutions
which have given them hospitality.
A Republic worth living in is worth
living for; and a Republic worth
defending is worth our patriotic
vigilance"
Those who do not go along with
the President in these sentiments
are not worth Observation-Disclosures
than that a watchful eye should be
kept on them.
The half-baked "doktors" So
called, and the bespectacled theor-
lists who seek these shores and i'm
mediatel- OF landing begin agitation
to change u system, the system
under which we have prospered
amazingly, should be packed off or
imprisoned. II they do not shut up
they should be shut up.
The ambition of a majority of
Continentais right now is to find
residence in America. But for re-
strictive Legislation they would come
at the rate of 1000, 900 or 3,OO0,-
900 a year. What is it that invites
them. Our free institutions and
our limitless opportunities. A ma
jority if not misled. probably would
accept our institutions and embrace
the opportunities offered, but a
vicious minority appear to think
they have a mission, and that mis-
sion is to undermine our social and
political customs. We have no
abiding place for them.

NO FOR TEN
NESSEE

kentucky's feud over evolution
appears to have sunk out of sight,
but the battle continues in Tennes-
see.. Last spring Prof. James w.
Sprowls was dismissed from the
State university for expounding the
theory of evolution and assigning
"The Mind in the Making as out
side reading for his students. The
students took Prof. Sprowl's dis
charge especially hard and proceed
ed to spread propaganda in favor of
academic freedom and student self
government. Four members of the
faculty spoke out against the action
taken by the trustees in the case
of Prof. Sprowis an dshowed SYM
pathy with the undergraduate de-
msnds. All four have been sep
arated from their jobs.
The board of Trustees of Ten
nessee University has the right, un-
doubtedly, to oversee the courses
of instruction at hat institution of
learning and to hire and fire faculty
members. But there will come a
time, if Boards of Trustees make
too many mistakes of this kind,
when the curriculum of no univer-
sity will be subject to change at
the hands of business men appoint
ed by the Governor. Usually the
trustees have the wit to let things
alone which they do not understand.
In this instance a group of amateurs
has i~nterfered unwarrantably with
the work of experts.
What member of the Board of
Trustees of the University of Ten
nessee has made a study of evolu-
ton or of the evidence on which the
theory is based? What member
of the board can base his decision
in regard to these five instructors
on a basis more reliable than here
say, prejudice or political expedi-
ency? The students at Knoxville de-
serve a more intelligent quota of
overseers.

ONE DEBTOR THAT DOES
O. CALL AMERICA
GREEDY

Great Britain, first of the allied
nations to make formal arrange
ments for payment of the war debt
due the United States, has set a good
example to other European coun-
tries. Some of Jul other debtors
seem to think that the United
States is a selfish and grasping ma
ton, and apparently they conclude
that they have at least a moral
right to attend to everything else
under the sun before they even think
about the money which they Dor
rQtFed from America.
The British government already
has made substantial payments to
the United States and it is becom-
ing more and more evident that the
American debt settlement plan is
popular in Britain. A dispatch
from London say that when Pre-
mier Baldwin made a speech prais-
ing the United States for the friend
ly spirit revealed in the debt nego-
tiations the cheers from a large
audience were'loud and prolonged.
Instead of referring to, The I'm
tied States as a greedy creditor, the
premier declared that the negotia-
tions for collection of the debt rep
resented unparalleled fr~iendliness."
Premier Baldwin expressed the
gratitude of the nation 20 the AM
erican debt commission. "rhis is
the first step in the settlement of
world problems" he said. at has
made America more willing than
ever to work with Britain for the
regeneration of the world" Uncle
Sam would be pleased to hear from
other European debtors capable of
getting pleasure from the knowledge
that they are meeting their obliga-
tions in an honorable way. This
does not apply exclusively to the
allies, for Germany owes us large
sums.
