COSTE WILL WAIT
TO RECEIVE $4,000
Tour Plans Prevent Getting
Prize at Boston Legion
Session October g.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, September l3.-The
good will tour to be begun Monday will
interfere with carrying out the sugges-
ton cabled to Dieudonne Coste and
Maurice Bellonte today that they ac-
cent the $4,000 EaSterwood prize for
their flight to Dallas, Tex, on the last
day Of the American Legion Conven-
tlcn, in Boston, on october 9.
The tour itinerary calls for the
French flyers to be in Philadelphia on
october 9, and spokesman for the flyers
and the Tour Committee said it would
be impossible to change the schedule.
Boston is the first overnight stop on
the good will flight and Philadelphia
the last, and it was not felt that It
would be advisable to visit the MaSsa-
chusetts city twice before going to the
Pennsylvania city, even if the schedule
had not already been finally decided on.
The flyers complete their tour on
October 10 and after that would be
able to receive the prize wherever Col.
William E. Easterwood, the donor,
might designate.
Easterwood today cabled from Paris
a suggestion to CoSte that the check
might be presented in Boston.
The cablegram was sent in care of
the national commander of the Legion,
who was asked to invite Coste and
Bellonte there on that date E. r.
Tenant, president of the Dallas, Tex,
bank upon which the check is drawn,
will take the document to Boston and
meet MIR. Easterwood there.

agencies. Henry P. Fletcher of Pennsyl-
vania, for many years one of the Ma
tons diplomats, will become chairman

Reserve Board.
Four Names Ready.

other four members of the Tariff Com
mission in time to take Office on Tues

ton.
Thomas Walker Page, a Virgins

nominee whose choice for the new com
mission has been announced at the

ii is reported that the President has
decided upon the men for these.

A host of work confronts the new
Tariff Commission. Even before It's re-
organization, the special investigators
have been put to work on the scores OF
Investigations ordered by Congress into
the newly enacted rates in the Smoot-
Hawley act.
The recent tariff act places upon the
commission the responsibility for fix-
ing the rates, giving to the President
the power either to accept or veto It's
recommendation.
Meyer will succeed as governor Of the
Federal Reserve Board Roy Young, who
resigned to become the governor of the

HOPE FOR COTTON
SEEN IN |NACT|ON
Attitude of Market to August
Consumption Report Cited
by Carl Williams.
BY the Associated Press.


Carl Williams, Farm Board member
representing cotton, said last night the
almost total absence of reaction on
either the New Orleans or New York
market to the Governments August cot
ton consumption report was the most
optimistic sign of improvement he had
seen this season.
The report showed 206,4 less bales
consumed during August than for the
corresponding month year ago and
but save for the faintest trace of f1uctu-
atoms the effect on the market was
probably the slightest at any time since
monthly reports have been made on
consumption.
williams said the situation indicated
a definite realization that cotton prices
had hit the bottom and that it had
put mills, which long had waited to see
If prices were going lower, in position
to fix prices for their seasonal pur-
chaseS and had increased the buying
power both here and abroad. More
cotton is being bought now, he said
than at any time in the last six months.
