BILLS DEALING WITH
COTTON STATISTICS
PRESENTED IN HOUSE
Measures Would Take Com
pilation From Depart
ment of Commerce.

Washington, d. c., March 27.-Two
measures dealing with the preparation
ard distribution of cotton statistics
were introduced in the House yester-
dav. Under a oill presented by Rep
risentative Aswell, Louisiana, ranking
Democrat on The House agricultural
committee, all raw cotton statistical
work would be transferred from the
Department of Commerce to the De-
partment of Agriculture.
A census to determine the amount
of grades of cotton on hand in mills
and warehouses would be authorized
under a resolution introduced by Rep
resentative Byrnes, Democrat. South
Carolina. The director of the, census
bureau also would be directed to es-
innate the number of bales on farms.
Mr.. Byrnes said it would not be
difficult to gather accurate informa-
tiop as to stocks in mills and ware
houses. A census should be taken, he
declared, to clean up misapprehension
In the cotton trade as to stocks now on
hand.
Whether intentional or otherwise"
Mr. Aswell said in discussing his bill,
the Department of Commerce has
gravciy injured the cotton producer
and the cotton holding cooperative
organizations of the country By mud
dliIs the figures on cotton production
and especially by the unproven and
unfounded reports Of a carry-over of
more than 100000 bales. After caus-
ing disastrous break in cotton prices
By tins report, the department yielded
to the outraged cotton producers and
inve1 tigated its own figures. The re-
suit was that it was unable to balance
its OWE figures and unable to explain
its alleged carry-over. BY this pro-
"edure the Department of Commerce
has established its unreliability and
In future should have no part in re-
porting statistics on raw cotton. BY
iis' recent performances this depart
ment Of the government has cost the
domestic cotton growers hundreds of
millions of dollars"

individual honors: Wills has been
going great guns all fall and is a far.
better runner than he was last spring.
Peck and Wilson should find the
course to their liking and finish we'll

has always been n consistent per-
former will undoubtedly be we'll up
among the leaders.
Archibald has proved. that he is n
good hill and dale man as we'll as
quarter miller. and is expected to
turn in a creditable performance.
Mckinley. .the brother OF Cyk Nc
Gfnley. will make up the rest of the
team that will start. The Bates men
are out to bring back the honors. and

They took the Waterville eleven by

fact that last year Cony held the
Deering boys to a scoreless tie at
Augusta, the present Purple team
has been practiCing faithfully all the
week for the struggle. The team
Yesterday looked to be in good form
and the first team in scrimmage

opponents line for some good gains.
The Purple line looked much strong
or than in the South Portland con-
fict. and ought to give a good ac-
count of itself in the coming bat
tie.
Funny" Douglas has been pro-
NOTED to regular in place of Morang.
Douglas. while not heavy. is a fierce
tackler and and good receiver of
forward passes. His excellent work
this week prompted Coach Flack to
make the shift. Riley, who has been
playing the end position is in poor
shape and will not be able to play
in the Cony ,tussle. The Purple
wingman is battered up from the
Portsmouth and South Portland
games and Coach Flack has decided
to keep him out OF the coming bat
tie unless he unexpectedly rounds
into better shape.

COBuRN ENTERS
COLBY TRACK MEET
MINUS STARS
Especial to Eennebec JournaD

Waterville. Oct. S0-Coburn will
enter eight men in the Colby inter-
scholastic cross country meet to be
held on the Colby course tomorrow.
The team will be comprised mostly
of 1nexperienced men only two vet
Grams being in the meet and neither
of these has been training to any ex-
tent this fall. Ryan and Sullivan are
the only men that have any exper-
fence in the long grind. both of them
running on the championship team
of last fall. Coburn will be weaken
ed greatly by the loss OF Captain
Hop" Wood and Brainerd Hardy.
These two seasoned vets have been
hit hard by the hand OF fate and are
both limping around with injuries.
Only the first of the week, while
practiciug. Wood caught his foot in
a hole in the ground and strained the
lisaments severely. Hardy is suffer-
ing from a shin splint that will keep
him out of the running for the re-
mander of the season. Much was
expected of these two men as they
have no equals in tn, State but Co.
burn must make the best OF things
and with six green men attempt 10
carry of the honors Saturday morn
ing.
Spalding is expected to finish well
up with the leaders, he is short and
has a free stride that denotes the
style of a champion, from his per-
formances so far this season he is
the man on whom Coburn is pinninS
her hopes to keep the team going
and capture the low points. Fuller
and Simmons have been doing good
work over the Colby course and can
stand the GAIT of hard race. Perry
ran on the Mcriden High school cross
country team down in Connecticut
for the last two years and is reputed
to be a good runner, He reported for
practice the first of the week and is
not in the best of share. with his
experience, however. he sho0ld prove
an ace in the hole for the Crimson
and Gold barriers. Sullivan and
Ryan are both plugSers, they ran
last fall and know the fine points OF
long distance work, they can keep a
fast pace throughout the race and
always have n spirit at the finish.
If the team can only keep in a
group with Spalding and the leader
and Perry TO alternate as pacenaker,
the local boys have fine chance of
coming through even though the
competition is stronger than ever this
wear.
