Dick OHara's Derby year was
1880. He had won one race as a
2-year-old, but had failed to win
in six starts prior to Derby day in
his 3-year-old season. Obviously,
Dick OHara had no legitimate
business in the Derby.
He belonged to a brisk young
Chlcagoan named Pat Joyce, a
member Of that group whom H. L.
Mencken used to describe as men
of vision. There were a lot of them

IT is remarkable that despite the
Il threatening situation rapidly
developing, the country is prob
ably better off economically than
for many years. Foreign COM
panies still manage to make profits
despite heavy taxes and numerous
strikes.

improving, according to official
figures. A minimum salary law
assures workers of better income
and has reflected itself in i'm
proved business.
Sterilization of the peso at 800
to the dollar, which position it has
held firmly for more than a year
even during the recent silver
furry, has increased exports and
development of native industry.
In conferences between the as
siStant treasury secretary, Rob-

The government is furnishing

is booming. Better auto-road con-
nections between the United
States and Mexico should be ready
this summer, as work is being

SEES IMPROVEMENT
FOR COTTON TRADE
Foreign Markets Expected
to Be Regained Soon.
Times Special

ImcS Special
CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-North Ameri-
can cotton, which like wheat has
been burdened over a number of
years with excessive legislation, is
destined to effect a comeback and
regain its natural markets.
This was asserted by William r.
Meadows, cotton registrar of the
Chicago Board of Trade, in an ar
ticle published recently by Com
merce and Finance. Mr.. Meadows
stated, THE supremacy of Amer;-
can cotton may be threatened, pos
sibly temporarily eclipsed, but it
can not be overthroWn.
From a study Of the situation l
am convinced that American cotton
will, in time, regain its foreign mar
kets. This hope and prophecy is
based on solid facts. The South
has vast acreage of suitable soil
and favorable climate.
Labor Cheap
"It has experienced and chaep
labor under intelligent direction. 1t
has more than a century of accumu-
lated experiences in seedbreeding
and in the selection and adaptation
of varieties. 1t knows how to cul-
tivate and harvest cotton cheaply.
Vast facilities exist for ginning and
COMPRISING the bales and tranport-
ing them to seaboard markets at
low costs. Cotton merchants of
courage, experience. wealth and
dependability are available to mer-
chandise the crop efficiently.
There are, likewise, futures ex-
changes to adequately hedge and
distribute the supply as needed, and
the United States has ample cap
ital to finance all transactions.
American cotton enjoys wide and
enviable reputation among spinnerS
as the bread and butter cotton of
the world, and is always in demand
if the price is right. Under such
circumstances, it is impossible to
believe that anything aside from the
collapse of modern civilization can
prevent an early return of King
Cotton to his throne"

Nuys 3D., md, reported here today.
The Senator, back from a tour
of the states county seats, said the
changes wrought since he stumped
Indiana in 1882 are almost unbe-
lievable.
In 80, he said, the farmers were
dead broke, their farms mortgaged
to the hilt, and houses and barns
implanted and in disrepair.
Today he asserted, their debt
burden has been lifted, prices for
their products have been restored
to parity and the adjustment checks
have given them some ready cash,
"They have painted up their
places, bought new autos and farm
machinery. and the indigo has faded
from their viewpoint. Although
most of them have been life long
Republicans they are praising the
President and daring any politician
to try and take away the AAA."
Good times likewise have returned
to northern Indianas industrial
areas, he reported. Blast furnaces
are blazing again at Gary and
throughout the Calumet region.
South Bend, badly hit by the de-
preston, is thriving. Fl. Wayne is
humming with business activity.
"Hoosiers aren't falling for the
propaganda that recovery would
have returned faster without what
this Administration has DONE" the
Senator declared
When I stopped at Gary hotel,
Is union labor heads marched over
to express their thanks for the labor
legislation that was passed.
Labor and the farmers are not
being fooled by the opposition's tall
talk"
Indiana Republicans will likely
support Frank Knox for the presi-
dental nomination, he predicted.

eminent in favor of German freight
ships threatened yesterday to de-
stroy the North Atlantic Continental
Freight Conference and institute a
dangerous rate war.
Eleven members of the confer
ence, largest on the Atlantic, re-
signed yesterday and indicated with
two others who resigned earlier that
rate cuts up to so per cent prob
ably will open the war.
Unless diplomatic action insti-
tuted by the State Department
brings a truce, the first rate cuts
probably will be made late next
week. designations Of the II lines
which acted yesterday become ef-
fective Wednesday.
First lines to resign were the
Black Diamond and Belgian. They
charged that with connivance of the
German government the Arnold
BerStein and Red Star lines were
giving rebates to shippers through
a manipulation of German marks.
Other lines of the conference
would be forced to meet rate reduc-
lions which the Black Diamond and
Belgian lines, in direct competition
with the German companies for
traffic between New York and Ant
werp, announced would be made.
The affected lines are the United
States, Holland-America, Hamburg

fic County, Baltimore Mail, North

NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-The weekly
food index advanced a cent during
the week ended Nov. 5. Dun g.
BradStreet, Inc, announced today.
The index rose to S2.74, despite the
TACT that advances were fewer than
declines.
The latest report compares with
the high of s3.77, recorded in Sep

cent over the corresponding figure
OF 1884, which stood at SAL. The
rise during the week was attributed
to sharp seasonal advances in but
ter eggs, rye, oats, barley and po-
tatoes.
