score Well informed opinion here is
that the worlds rapidly increasing de-
mand for cotton goods will absorb new
production as fast as it can be brought
In, and that American spinners proba-
bly, will take the whole American crop
by the time the Lancashire spinners
are in position to get along without
American cotton.
There Is another, and possibly more
important, story to be written about
European markets for American farm
products when the European situa-
ton is surveyed as a whole, but I am
confirmed by expert opinion in believ-
ing that the above pretty accurately
sizes up the situation so far as the
United Kingdom is concerned.
AS summing up of my observations
here, before moving on to the conti-
nent, I want to say that the British.
as we are at home, seem still a good
deal bewildered by the postwar situa-
ton. They realize, as we do, that
after the vast upheaval of the war the
world will never be the same again.
They know that new economic forces
are at work, new currents setting in,
but how those forces will operate and
where the currents will lead they can
only guess. In the meantime, they are
going ahead and doing the bast they
can, hoping and believing that the
ground Is getting firmer under their
feet, but not feeling quite sure Of 1t.

Punishment for Crime
In Chile Is Modified

Punishment for crime in Chile has
been much modified through recent
penal legislation inspired by groups of
sentimentalists. In the first applica-
ton of the new penal code recently
10 inmates of the prison in Valparaiso
were granted provisional liberty by
the ministers of the court of appeal.
Under the law these court officials will
make half yearly visits to the penal
institutions, go over the record of
every prisoner who has served half
the period Of his sentence. If the
record shows exemplary conduct the
prisoner may be granted provisional
liberty II the prison head approves.
The newspapers of Chile hail the
penal code as a step toward modern
ization, but suggest that it would
have been well to draw up the law SO
that the character of the ofYense
would be given consideration by the
pardon board in it's consideration of
applications for parole.
