In the Cotton Market
CBy Thomson & McKinnon)

NEW YORK. April 17-After a week of
abnormally cold weather over the belt the
weather seems to be swinging back into
normal, There Is a divergence OF opinion
the news from Washington that the Presi
denk tavors loans to cooperative societies
may generally be construed as evidencing a
weakness somewhere. The result of such
course, particularly if IL should take the
form of selling the surplus abroad is best
perfcial view of the subject would seem
to lead to the conclusion that it would re
suit In giving foreign spinners g tremen-
dous advantage. Some form of govern
ment aid has been in operation in Egypt
but notwithstanding Egyptian market
have been cOnspicuously weak for some
time, In our opinion cotton is selling be
low its value, but this may not be rectified
before better understanding of the aC-
count of May tenders comes about.

Shell Shocked

Eight years ago Tarbot's memory
was almost blottted out when n
great shell exploded near him in
France.
There was tremendous flare Of
dEht and the sound Of a million
bees humminS in my ears" he re
calls.
From that time on he can remem-

ton, Cal. How he got there he does
not know. but during the interval
from 1918 to 1923 he apparently wan
1ered all over the country, even
ouying a barren ranch.
Tarbot could start life again on
fresh. new page, but he needs his
past. His few scattered flashes of
memory. cleaning through the haze
Of forgotten years. are not enough

in society or to his real name.
If he could identify himself and
connect himself with a war service
record somewhere In the rolls of the
Marine Corps. he would be several
thousand doll1rs richer. He would

IF I could go back and begin were

Served With French First
Most convincing are his memories
OF Army life. He thinks he went to
France in 1916, and for a time he
was dispatch carrier with French
troops.
He remembers, too, that he served
with the 9Th Marines at Belleau
Wood. This fact is confirmed by
members of that famous outfit, a
captain making affidavit that he
must have ben there to know so
much about the fight and the men
in it, and an enlisted man saying he
knew him, but only by the name of
"Frenchy."
A handful of earlier memories he
has, also. He grew up on New
York's west side. He remembers
boyish mischief, such as selling a
chicken to a sidewalk merchant, re-
covering it through a hole in the
coop and selling it over again. He
thinks he once studied for the priest
hood, and he can quote phrases of
Latin and Greek such as might stici
in a schoolboy's mind. His mothe-
was Irish, he thinks. and his father
was French.

HELD
UP In DIAMOND
CREEK HEARING

PRESCOTT-The Diamond creek
power permit case was taken un-
der advisement by Judge Jacobs
after it had been argued. Four
points were considered by Attorney
General Murphy and Assistant At
torney General Frank j. Duffy for
the state, and by Attorney Samuel
White representing the Greater
Colorado River Development asso-
citation:
D. These attorney held that
there was no federal question in
volved.
(2). That when the permit to ap-
propriate water from the Colorado
river was cancelled by operation of
law, by reason of the fact that Gil
rand had failed to do the work re-
quired by the state, that State Wa
ter Commission Frank P. Trott
merely entered a minute record of
that cancellation.
90. That if aggrieved, Grand
had remedy at law by appeal
a.. That Girand's cross-bill is
a collateral attack which cannot be
maintained because he had a plain
remedy at law by appeal.
After hearing the argument, Boy
lie and Pickett, Bisbee, attorneys
for Grand, asked to amend this
cross-bill in some slight detail. The
attorneys for the state and for the
Greater Colorado River Develop
ment association and for the Ari-
zona Highline Reclamation associa-
tion were given Is days to file a
brief in answer to that filed by
Boyle and Pickett on the morning
of the hearing.
