U. S. Grant and staff" The men vir-
tually stripped the farmhouse of
victuals. Only a pumpkin pie re-
manned; the men were all too full
to eat it.
BY coincidence. Grant himself the
same day stopped at the same farm
house-and found the cupboard bare,
except for the pie. The housewife told
the story Of Wickfield's visit, so Grant
set out after him.
With the Army at attention, Grant
read the following order: "Lt. Wick
field, having on this day eaten every
thing in Mrs. Selvidge's house, except
one pumpkin pie, Is hereby ordered to
return with an escort of 100 cavalry
and eat that pie also"
The order was carried out,

Knowing that declarer held the ace

THE PROPOSED TVA
INVESTIGATION

1t has been proposed that Con-
gress investigate the Tennessee
Valley Authority. A number of lead
ing senator's, of both parties, are
supporting the proposal.
For a long time, there have been
rumOrs of Irregularities in the Op-
Grafton of the Authority, starting
with the sensational disclosures of
ex-ComptrOller McCarl concerning
waste and ineficiency. It has been
said by men in a position to know
that Twas system of bookkeeping
makes it next to impossible to
judge, from the bare records, pre-
cisely how much none yIs spent in
many instances.
II II is true that there has been
an excessive amount of preventable
waste in the operation of the Au-
tbOrity, the public. which pays the
bills, is entitled to know about 1t.
If it is not true, the rumors should
be dissipated in the interest of fair
ness to the Authority's directors
and employees.
Under any circumstances, It will
be interesting to see how the sena-
tors vote If and when a resolution
for investigating the iva is offered.
Congress has always been more
than willing to investigate and con-
denim the private utility industry,
an doften on the fimsiest pretexts.
IT has done this. according to
spokesmen. in the public interest.
VIII It be as jealous Of the public
interest when It comes to disclosing
the truth and the whole truth about
its own creature, the iva?

Cotton Stockings For
Style

The spectacular success Of domes-
tic Isle full fashioned stockings for
women demonstrates once again
that King Cotton has not lost favor
OF the style-conscious American
public.
The demand for this new type Of
Isle hosiery, smart enough to wear
everywhere, with town as well as
country clothes, has grown with
great rapidity and promises a sub
stantial new market for large guam
titles Of the finest domestic cotton.
Within the past two months the
number of American hosiery man
ufacturers producing Isle stockings
has jumped from five TO more than
fifty, and in spite Of the best efforts
of these manufacturers it is still i'm
possible for them to make deliveries
in sufficient quantities to meet de-
mand.
Probably the recent widespread
movement to boycott japanese pro-
ducts has had some effect on de-
mand for Isle hosiery made in Am
erica. But, the movement for de-
Yeloping new types of Isle hosiery
undertaken by the Durene Associa-
tion was begun months before the
conflict in the Orient. According to
Dean Hill, president of this organi-
cation Of cotton yarn mercerizers,
the Association is not in sympathy
with the boycott movement and is
promoting the new stockings en-
tirely on their own merit. "For
some time" says Mr.. Hill, ''it has
been generally recognized by fash
ion authorities that there would be
instant response from American VIC
men to a smart, properly styled,
long wearing Isle stocking to COM
plete their hosiery wardrobe. We
believe that every American woman
should have at least three pairs Of
DuTene Isle stockings in her hos
iery wardrobe. This represents a
new market each year for more than
a hundred million pairs Of stock
ings-milliOns Of pounds Of fine do
mestic cotton. The importance OF
this development 10 the cotton tex
tile Industry and to cotton growers
Is obvious
First introduced In the smartest
shops on Fifth Avenue, New York, I
these new Isle stockings in beauti- /
ful mesh patterns and sports colors .
won immediate attention and en-
thusiasm on the part Of the buying I
public, especially for wear in town |
with tweeds and tailored garments.
A nationwide survey to check con-
sumer reaction showed equally en-
lhusiastic response throughout the I,
OF the hundreds OF women \
s3es said that there was
! definite place In their hosiery
wardrobe for stockings Of this type.
In Southern cities, S79s we're affirm
itive. The success Of these new
sponsored by the Durene
Association Is conclusive evidence
hat Il pays the cotton textile indus
.ry TO be continually alert to new
ashton possibilities for fits product.
King Cotton can retain his throne n
,nly through continued fashion
The Durene Association
deserves the congratulations of the
.ntire cotton industry.
