 eating e memorial to Canada war freedom and peace on it's apex and dead, pointing to the two figures of remarking: without freedom there can be no enduring peace and with out peace no enduring freedom Grouped at the foot of the dais were several hundred Canadian world war veterans who had cheered the king at every opportunity. Be- fore the king appeared with the queen, they han chanted in a boom ing roar: we want the king :. We want the queen"
 The king finished his speech and the cheering was thunderous. Every one expected the ksng ana queen to leave the dais through their rows of guards as scheduled, but they stepped down into the midst of a group of veterans and began Shak- | ing hands. In 8 few minutes they were pressed in by a crowd 20 deep on every side. Veterans were push- ing cameras into their faces, making close-ups. One veteran thrust out his hand to the queen, say:ng: Put it there, your majesty"
 Put It There" Said Queen
 "Right you are," said the queen, smiling, and added, Put it there."
 Members of the ofiicial party, par- ticularly the large contingent of Royal Canadian Mounted police guarding their majesties and re- sponsible for their safety, were be- side thmselves anc Alan Lascelles, the kings private secretary, at one point paced up and down at the edge of the milling throng in de- spair.
 The king and queen were moving in the general direction of their waiting automobile, and the veter- ans trooped along with them, both stopping every few feet to chat with another veteran. It took them a half hour to make the journey, the vast crowd opening up little to give them path. From the top of the Union station, overlooking the memorial, all that was visible of the queen was her white hat sur- rounded on every side by sea of maroon beretS-part of the uniforms of the war veteran,-

fix up that situation.
 She ran away fro mthe queen and went to where the king was stand- ing. Without so much as 8 "by your leave, sir" she took hold Of his hand and grinned at him.
 They Both Laughed
 The king stopped over and whis- pered something to Yvonne.
 Then they both laughed their heads of at their private joke.
 Marie Dionne decided that her sis- ter was having too much fun with the tall man in the blue sailor suit, so she ambled over and handed the king Q small bouquet.
 The rest of the quints gave their bouquet to the queen.
 The 19-minute ceremony opened with all the quints standing in line
 pr. DefOe Presented Them
 pr. Dafoe, wearing formal morn- ing attire that seemed little tight in the seams, presented the children one by one.
 Each stepped forward, put her right foot behind her left and made Q neat curtsy. Once that formality was out of the way the quints took charge of the situation themselves.
 Cecile was the first one to think up the idea of kissing the queen.
 She just walked across the room and did it. As soon as her sisters saw what was happening they, too, were thronging around the queen, scram- bling to see which one could kiss her first.
 The queen loved it.
 Five Mementoes of Visit
 The king and queen will carry back to London with them five me- mentoes of this visit. Each of the quins gave them an autographed photograph with the names scrawled on them in large childish letters.
 In turn, the king and queen gave each of the quins little blue reefer coats and announced they were gifts from Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret who are waiting

National Cotton Week Opens Drive To Stimulate
 Recovery Of King Cotton, Americas Sick Man

the present cotton loan program which pegs and allows other na- tions to undersell American cotton by . few points and thus obtain the lions share of world markets.
 "The United States can produce cotton as economically--and still pay higher wages-as any country in the world,'' an Agriculture Depart ment cotton expert declared. When ---and not until-we start again com- peting in world markets on q price basis will other nations be willing to cooperate in apportionment of exports"
 while the United States, under the farm program, has reduced cot ton planting from 42,000, 900 acres to 3T,OOO,000 other countries, and es- pecially Brazil, have made enormous increases in acreage tiled by cheap labor.
 Normal Corp Set
 The present United States acreage is intended to produce crop, under normal conditions, of i2,000, 900 bales Of that amount approximately G. 500, 0,000 bales are needed for home consumption. leaving 5,500,000 balei for annual export.
 If the United States is successful in reeaining it's normal share of exports the additional amount needed would be drawn from loan stocks until the American reserve supply is approximately $5,0o0,00( bales.
 Thereafter. acreage would be ad: justed from year to year to produce the amount needed to meet expected home consumption and export de. mands for the following year. Tn thu event of a short crop, cotton coult be withdrawn from the reserve tS meet demands and acreage increas. ed the next to replace that cotton In the words of one farm admin istfation official: "Kine Cotton ma, be . mighty sick man, but he stil is able to put up . winning fight a3ainst any competitor in the worls -there t . lot Of life in the ole boy yet.s

hair done. Rose, Therese and Paul line all had white dresses with white stockings and black patent leather shoes. Ernest, Daniel and Oliva, Jr., had blue suits, blue neck ties, and white shirts. 'INs Memes Choses Que Papa" <Just like papa's) Papa Dionne, . farmer until his quintuplets made him famous father, was asked if he wasn't wor- ried about what he was going to do or say when he was presented to a real king and queen.
 "why should I be?" he asked. '"The King and Queen have been brought up properly. They won't laugh at me-"
 Last night, after the train had left Callander, Mama Dionne came into the dining car where the re- porters were having their dinners.
 Are you going to curtsy to the King and Queen, Madanle?" I ask ed.
 No" she said, tits not that I wouldn't like to. It's just that don't know how and there was no way for me to learn"
 Put To Bed Quickly Once the train was moving, they were dressed in their pajamas and put to bed. There are three bed rooms in their private coach. Two quints were put in each of two of the rooms and the fifth was put in the third with one of the nurses. This in itself was an adventure and the Quints drew lots to decide which one would sleep in the same room with the nurse.
 The lights were left on for while SO the little girls could con- tinue their discussion of the king and queen, g discuyssion which has been interminable now for weeks. They had had supper at the nursery be- fore they left, and Cecile, leaving the table first, had said to her sis ters: goodbye girls. I'm going to see the King and Queen"
 In the lounge of their car rode five, constables of the provincial po- lice. Eight constabies had guarded the route their automobile took to the train and more waited at the Toronto station.
 Chose Eight Toys The departure from the nursery was delayed because Yvonre exer- cised the feminine prerogative of . change of mind. Dr. Dafoe had in- formed all the sisters that they each could take but one toy with them a toy of their own choosing. The sisters promptly chose their favor ite toys which, of course, were the most worn and most disrpeutable items in the vast collection of ex- pensive toys contributed by persons | in every part of the world.

European and Jauanese spinners turned to other sources for Q major portion of their supplies.
 As e result American exports since last Aug. 1 have fallen to the lowest point in more than 50 years. Ex- ports for the current cotton year probably will not exceed $500, ,000 bales, about half of the average for the 20 years.
 President Roosevelt proposed an export subsidy in March to place American cotton on a competitive price basis with other cotton on world markets. He also approved a proposal to barter surplus cotton for rubber and tin, strategic war ma terials in which this country is de- ficient.
 Wallace Urges Farley
 Secretary Wallace proposed an international conference of cotton exporting nations for establishment of an "ever-normal" cotton reserve supply and an apportionnent Of cotton exports, based on export data for the past 10 years.
 Secretary of State Cordell Hull has invited about 10 cotton export ing nations to consult with the United States preliminary to such such a conference. Six nations, the identity of which were not revealed have sent favorable" replies.
 The administration hopes to com plete preliminary arrangements early this summer and to hold the con- ference probably in Londofi--this fail. It would follow the general lines of the International Wheat Conference which met in London this spring.
 Secretary Wallace has estimated that the United states share ol world cotton exports, totaling ap. proximately 14.000. 900 bales annual. iy, would he 60 per cent. or about 7,l00,o0O bales. American exporti this year Wiil be about % per cenl Of the world total.

 sor of the measure. Since that time he has refused to commit himself on the bill, either for or against.
 Secor to Present Report
 Through a political paradox, the favorable report on the referendum bill will be submitted tomorrow by Senator Audubon Secor, of Bridge port, Socialist, chairman of the cit ies and boroughS committee. Some weeks ago Senator Secor told report CTS that the people of Waterbury ought to have 8 conservator ap- pointed over them" If they accepted the city manager charter, Yet, as chairman of the committee, 1t is his duty to submit a favorable report on the bill and speak in its favor.
 Observers today believed that the first step in the parliamentary maneuvering tomorrow would be the filing of an amendment. This would provide for the referendum to be held during the early summer, rath- CT than on Oct. 3, as now speci- fled in the bill. The original text of the bill called for the referendum to be held three weeks after it's final passage, but this provision was changed by the Good Government association.
 Constitutionality The question of constitutionality of some of the city manager charter provisions, and of the conflict o1 other provisions with existing state laws, is almost certain to be raised tomorrow.
 Senator Edward P. Egan, col- league of Senator Culhane, is ex- pected to vote for the referendum bill itself if the bill should come to a vote without having been first amended. It is not known what Senator Egan's stand will be on any amendments that may be proposed tomorrow.
 The Republican leadership, head ed by Lieut.-Gov. James l.. Mc- Conaughy, has been seeking the en- tire 16 Republican votes in the sen- ate in favor of the bill, but it is understood that one or two G. O. P. members of the upper house are prepared to oppose it. The two So- cialists will probably vote for the bill. The IT Democratic votes will decide the fate of the measure, since any considerable Democratic sentiment for the bill would insure its passage.
 Should there be 6 tie vote on the bill itself or on any of the amend ments that may be proposed, the tie will be broken in favor of the Good Government association by Dr. McConaughy, the senates pre- siding officer.

 Washington, May 22--(UP)--Kine Cotton, from his sick bed, reigns for one week beginning today.
 A gigantic, nationwide observ- ance will mark National Cotton Week, May 22 to 27. Parades will be held, speeches made and 10000 stores will feature cotton goods.
 Growers, shippers. spinners, man. ufacturers and merchants have cooperated to make the week . significant national event. They hope it will make buyers cotton conscious" and start a campaign to increase the use of cotton in @ move toward national recovery.
 National Cotton Week will be irl- dustry;s contribution toward achiev- ing the administrations aim to in- crease domestic cotton consumption by 100000 bales to a national goal of 100000 bales e year. Realiza- ton of that goal would mean jobs for an estimated 35o,oo0 persons new unemployed.
 Big Crop in ls states
 King Cotton's domain spreads across l8 southern states. More than 15,000, 900 Americans depend either directly or indirectly upon cotton for living. They are growers shippers. spinners, manufacturers and merchants.
 Cotton prosperity is vital to the welfare of the nation. When the 30,000.000 southerners have money to spend they buy manufactured goods, wheat and meats that fur- nish employment to millions o1 farmers and workers in other partl of the country.
 Big King Cotton is sick. His m. ness was caused by over-production sharply reduced exports and conse. quent low prices brought on b, record surpluscs.

 Demonstrations were reported also at Werder, in the corner where Danzig, Poland and Germany meet.

Polish Press sharp

VAAcaA ASoo EAh0AK
 Warsaw, Poland, May 22.-(UP). The Polish press sharpened its tone against Nazis, demanding an inquiry into Sundays incident which was climaxed by the fatal shooting of a Danzig resident by Q Polish chauffeur.
 Authoritative quarters charged that uniformed Danzig Nazi storm troopers had provoked the incident at the town of Kalthof by attack ing a Polish customs building.
 The press demanded that respon- sibility be fixed and that indemnifi- cation be ordered: That the Danzig senate give guartees for safety of Polish officials and inhabitants and that Polish customs officials be as- sured that they may work un- molested in the future. The news papers unanimously-aS if by offi- cial inspiration-asserted that the persons responsible for the incident were not Danzig residents but came from Marienburg, Germany.
 The Kurjer Warsawski reported that large Nazi storm troop groups in civilian dress had arrived in Dan- zig from Leipzig, Berlin and other German cities.
