In the Cotton Market
CBy Thomson g. McKinnon)

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-very little pub
lie interest was manifest in the cotton
market this morning. Prices we're easier
on cables and disappointment at the
failure of the market to advance on the
beginging figures published yesterday. A
belated short covering of December con-
tracts gave that position a certain
strength and checked the public's inclina-
ton to take profits on their long cotton.
Statistically, there is much to be said
for cotton but, as rule, astute traders
take It for granted that such conditions
are discounted before the rank and file
are in possession of the facts. without
predicting any radical price change in
the immediate future. the policy of gradu-
ally selling out holdings on all advances
appeals to us.

HOUSTON, June 2s.-tP-With
tns speeches Of three Of those in the
running Tor the vice presidency still
ringing in the ears Of the delegates,
supporters OF almost a score Of 9TH
ers whose names have been banded
back and forth for almost a week
groomed themselves today for the ap-
proaching final struggle.
Torn state standards resulting
from the strife brought by the clarion
call OF Senator Robinson Of Arkansas
Tor religious tolerance were still in
evidence when Mrs. Nellie Tayloe
Ross. a former governor OF Wyomilg,
faced the glaring searchlights and
spoke into the ~mierophone an ap-

Scarcely had the velvety voice of
the Wyoming woman been smothered
IN the last applause Of the thousands
before q s~outherner, Senator Barley

second 70 the nomination OF the New

Few claims are being advanced BY
the clan Of Robinson today, but there
was a quiet anoertone which indi-
Gated that his measure Of delegate
votes would be large. Silence still
pervsded the chambers Of Tammany
n there was no indication Of any
preference the New York governor
might have for a running mate. But

Mrs. Ross was being c~hampioned
claimed that other votes were rally

There was considerable comment
over the speech OF Senator Barley
and some Of his supporters claimed
that progress had been made toward
winning Smith sohorts for their can

Wyoming name was being drawn into

WORKS.

Vanished into thin air their boasts that GOV
Smith would be nominated for president
and discounting his leadership of the Demo-
cratic Party. the Ku Klux Khan is now about to
launch a campaign for membership among Re-
publicans according TO recent reports. The be-
lief seems to exist that the Republican Party
offers an opportunity to pick up lot of mem
bership fees and dues-paying members because
it is reasoned they will do anything to beat Gov
Smith 1t is said that literature is being broad
casted among Republicans pointing out the ne
cessity of saving the United States from the Pope
The success of Senator Watson, supported by the
Khan, in Indiana is said 10 have encouraged
the hope among the officers of the organization
that they might take the Republican Party into
camp and possess a National Administration as
they have possession the Administration in the
State of Indiana--and they almost succeeded
in accomplishing in Alabama. 1t has even threat
ened the Republicans, it is said, that if they do
not fall into line with the Ku Klux Khan a
new party will be formed ito champion funda-
mental American principles"
The Ku Klux Khan not only fought almost
to the last a losing battle against Gov. Smith
in the Democratic Party but it is still fighting
against Secretary Hoover in the Republican Par
ty. Its opposition to Hoover is not that he is a
