E YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, June II -
Cotton futures cracked nearly ~
points in fast response to French
capitulation early today but start
ed a comeback that left the close
Is to rs lower.
The shock of the war news soon
wore off although traders admitted
the ultimate effect OF the German
victory was guesswork.
Pressure subsidized after midday
and short covering in July and
price fixing attracted by the lower
levels stimulated prices.
The rally was motivated by be-
lated consideration of the U. S.
defense program. which experts
said would go far to eliminate
lost sales in export markets.
Encouraging was the report
heard in Washington that plans
were underway to form an organl'
cation of all the Americas to help
solve the problem OF exportaole
commodity surpluses.
Business in textiles claimed after
last weeks heavy turnover but
prices held firm at advanced levels
and an air of optimism prevailed
in Worth street.

EXCESS PROFITS TAX
ASKED BY ROOSEVELT

Observation-Disclosures
of a steeply graduated excess profits
tax was asked of congress by Presi-
dent Roosevelt July 1, the day the
additional taxes recently voted went
into effect.
The Presidents message, one of the
briefest he has ever sent, read:
1--WE are engaged in great national
effort to build up our national de-
lenses to meet any and every potential
attack.
1--WE are asking even our humblest
citizens to contribute their mite.
st is our dutyq to see that the
burden is equitably distributed accord
ing to ability to pay SO that few do
not gain from the sacrifice of the
many.
81, therefore, recommend to the con-
gress the enactment of a steeply grad
uated excess profits tax to be applied
to all individuals and all corporate
organizations without discrimination"
How soon congress would act on
the Presidents request remained prob
lematical.

SENATOR DAVIS
MAKES ELOQUENT
PLEA FOR kATHAN

In a radio address delivered last
week by Senator G. G. Davis of Rose
bud, he pleaded for enlightened
thought and study on the part of the
people of the state of the political
and economic issues which they, in
the exercise of their democratic priv
ileges in the coming elections, will
influence by their votes. He stressed
the necessity of the common people
awakening to the danger of encroach-
ments on their liberties.
Senator Davis closed his discourse
with the following eloquent appeal to
his listeners:
''Men for HIGH OFFICE-issues for
NOBLE PURPOSE. Make no mis-
takes-act we'll your part Remember,

1000 CITIES ASK
FOR STAMP PLAN.
100 SUPPLIED

AT present 100 cities are covered
by the Food Stamp Plan, while an
other 1000 communities have asked
to be included, according to the Fed
eral Surplus Commodities Corporation.
With farm prices continuing to sag
as exports are further curtailed, farm
ers have been particularly insistent
that the Stamp Plan be extended.
The amendment to the Relief Bill add
ling $100,000,000 to the funds of the
Federal Surplus Commodities Corpor-
alton was passed by the Senate but
later cut in half by the House.
Though complaining about the in
adequacy of this amount, Senate con-
ferees yielded, and both bodies have
now approved the reduced sum.
Congress had already agreed to ap-
propriate $1S7, 100000 for the fiscal
year beginning July 1, 1910 This
amount, which is slightly less than the
s205, 100000 voted last year had been
proposed before the recent breaks oc-
Cured in the commodity markets.
The additional $50,O00,000 just acted
upon by congress will allow little ex-
pansion of the stamp program and
is inadequate to meet the surplus prob
lem.
By late summer it is estimated that
4,000,0 900 persons will be under the
Stamp Plan, thereby getting an extra
21a cents worth of surlus food to
add to their meals which now average
only 5 cents each. Even if the plan
were limited to relief families, the
FSCC estimates that there are more
than 20,000,000 persons eligible for
inclusion; and if the plan were ex-
tended to all ill-fed, low-income fam
lilies, at least 45,OOO,OOO persons could
be included.
This year 100000 school children
got their MONDAY lunches free, made
in whole or in part from surplus foods.
There are, however, at least 100000
undernourished children in our low
income areas who would be eligible
to participate in such a program If it
could be extended to more cities, and
officials of the FSCC have urged such
action ''as matter of national health
defense"

Capitol Corridor
Chatter

There's one good thing about this
political campaign business that I've
found. It's kept these patrol guys
from hanging around the capitol 1t
used to be that l had to dodge behind
one of those pillars every once in a
while to keep out of sight of one OF
the gaffers, but for the last month
haven't even seen one. They haven't
held any parades or schools either. |
found out that most of the guys have
had to hit the road and tack up signs
for the governor or chauffeur poll
ticians around that were out beating
the bushes for votes for him. could
even stand for the campaign to last
longer just to keep those coppers out
of the way.
1t hasn't been much of a campaign
here at that The AABF thought they
were going to get to horn in on the
free samples from the blue ruin car
loads but l guess, from what I hear,
that the governor figures he'd better
save what he has accumulated, be-
cause he faces long dry spell next
year as far as any free sample cases
are concerned. OF course, | expect
that his cabinet members and he him
self don't run any danger OF stepping
on their tongues because they hang
out too far from thirst l can touch
at least one member of the AABF who
is in about that shape, and no relief
in sight either.
I don't know how long it'll take the
guys at the capitol from getting over
this mania for activity that they've
shown lately. They come and go all
the time and when you ask for some
guy, they tell you he's on vacation.
Then you are just as apt as not to
meet him in the corridor packing a
bunch of the governors pictures or a
bundle of stuff telling all about his
nihs' budget balancing stunts or some
thing. And generally, when they start
out they're travelling in some state
car, and a lot of them send in swindle
sheets for expenses. That part isn't
SO bad, but it'll be tough on those
guys If they get the habit to work
But l guess they'll recover easy
enough when this campaign stuff
ends.
The more l see of this STATE job
business, the sorer l get at myself
for ever getting into the racket I'm in.

IL BILLIONS FOR
APPROPRIATED

| WASHINGTON.-In it's survey of
recent legislation, Farm Research
finds that ornaments bills totaling
$12, 900, 100000 have already been
passed or approved by congressional
committees since the President made
his original request in January for
81, 1892, 100000 for national defense.
The next request on May IL in
which the President issued his call
for $4,000 airplanes asked for an ap-
preparation of $1,1S2, 100000. He also
asked for $272,000,000 to be added to
this years budget. This brought the
total to $3,2S6,0O,O00, but before con-
gress got through these appropriations
had been raised to s3,559, 100000.
To mechanic the army, the Presi-
dent called for another $3.50, 100000
on May 20, but the very next day
he increased this to $1,000,000,000
Congress raised the amount to ST.
zoe, 100000 Then the Senate passed
a measure amounting to $50,000,000
for war relief and the House approved.
Thus the total already approved by
both houses of congress amounts to
$5,315,000, 000 Another seven billions
have already been approved by appro-
pirate committees and have been
marked for rush passage.
Chairman Vinson of the House COM
mittee on naval affairs introduced
bill calling for "a new warships at a
cost of $1,000 100000 The President
raised this to $4,OO0,OOO,O0O and the
committee approved. On June 20 the
army put in it's request for $4,000
100000.
Despite the staggering size of these
appropriations, no provision has yet
been made for the $4,000 airplanes
or for the compulsory training of the
100000 young people which the Pres
ident has asked for. Though it was
commonly assumed that these $4,000
planes would be paid for out of the
s1182, 900 defense bill, it actually
only small part of this
sum for airplanes, leaving the item
for later action.

saved by farmers and stockmen of
Montana, Idaho, Washington and
Oregon during the next two years as
the result of reduced interest rates
on most types of Federal Land Bank
and Land Bank Commissioner loans,
R. E. Brown, president of the Federal
Land Bank of Spokane, announced
this week.
K Legislation adopted recently by con-
gress and approved by President
Roosevelt fixes the interest rate on
the next two years installments on
both loans, with some few exceptions,
at 3h percent annually. Land Bank
loans made since 1917 have been writ
tenat varying rates of interest, but
average about percent.
The 8 n percent rate on Land Bank
loans, Brown explained, is continu-
alton of a rate that has been in effect
since 1888. The new rate on Commits
sioner loans trims another one-half of
percent from the interest charge, a
special rate of percent having been
in effect on these loans for some time.
