NEW YORK. Dec. 9 - ar -
Cotton futures registered gains of
$2.25 to $685. a bale over the prev
ious close in active dealings Mon
day.
Buying was stimulated by settle
ment of the coal strike, which re-
moved the threat of ~curtailed tex
tile operations and the disruption
Of cotton exports. The market did
not respond to the December cotton
crop export. which apparently had
been more than discounted.
Best gains of 81 a bale were reg
istered before the crop report an
nouncement. Thereafter, the mar
ket was under pressure of profit
taking and hedging, the Depart
ment of Agriculture estimated the
1916 cotton crop at 8,428, 900 bales,
which was 5000 bales under its
November estimate and compared
with the 1915 crop of 9,015, 900 bales.
There was considerable switching
from nearby to later futures deliv-
cries by trade interest.
Futures closed $2.25 to 1925 a

PhiIIy Hotel
Apologies
For Refusal

PHILADELPHIA, Pa.-(NNPA)
Counsel for the Benjamin Frank
lin Hotel apologized last Friday
for hotel employees refusal to
rent rooms to colored members
of the New York University track
team.
On behalf of the Benjamin
Franklin Hotel Corporation they
declared the action was unauthor-
lied. They said there had been
no previous discrimination and
promised there would be none in
the future.
That satisfied everybody. So
Magistrate Joseph H. Rainey dis
missed the charges brought by
Maurice and Stanton Calender,
co-captains of the team; Frank
Dixon, Homer ellis, Milford Park
er and Alexander Jordan.
Il feel great deal has been
accomplished here today" Rainey
said.
FIRST PROSECUTION
The case represented the first
prosecution of a hotel brought in
Philadelphia under the states
equal rights" law of 1885, and
Rainey's office at 2406 North
Broad Street was crowded for the
hearing.
Defendants were former Mayor
W. Freeland Kendrick, president
of the Benjamin Franklin Corpor-
alton; Allen J. Levin, secretary,
and Michael T. McGarry, sales
manager Of the hotel.
McGarry was the only one on
hand at the outset, which dis
pleased Rainey. He told Morton
P. Rome and Benjamin M. Colder,
counsel for the hotel, he wanted
an authorized officer of the Ben
jamin Franklin here, not just an
employee" Rome promised to
''have somebody here in Is min
utes," and the hearing got under
way.
The compliments story was
that the team made reservations
early in April for the Penn Re-
lays, but that when they arrived
on April 26, they were told only
white members would be accom-
modated.
Raymond Pace Alexander, at
torney representing the complain
ants and the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, presented only two wit
nesses-Saul Cohen, manager OF
the team, and Dixon.

The first committee called Dy
the clerk was the Interstate and
Foreign Commerce Committee.
Representative Alfred l.. Bulwinkle,
Democrat, of North Carolina,
chairman Of that committee, called
up the bill to amend the Civil
Aeronautics Act of 1888 so as to
improve international collabora-
ton with respect to meteorology.
Under the rule, two hours of
debate were allowed with Mr.. Bull
Wrinkle controlling one hour and
Representative Charles A. Wolver-
ton, Republican, of New Jersey,
controlling the other hour.
AGREEMENT CHARGED
Representative Vito Marcan-
tonic, American Labor Party mem
Der, of New York, charged that
an agreement had been made that
the Interstate and Foreign Com
merce Committee had agreed not
to use its place on the calendar to
call UP its bills because to do SO
would be abiding and abetting the
filibuster to prevent the call of
the Labor Committee.
He disclosed that the Interstate
and Foreign Commerce Commit
tee had held meeting that day
which he was unable to attend
and had decided to call up its
"bills-bills that could have been
passed by unanimous consent"
What mockery," Marcantonit
cried. II just want the country
to know the mockery in which we
are now engaged for the sole
purpose of taking up time in order
to prevent the call of the Commit
tee on Labor and again block con
sideration of FEPC."
After the bill to amend the 1885
Civil Aeronautics Act was passed
Mr.. Bulwinkle called up bill tt
investigate the causes and char
acteristics Of thunderstorms.
When Mr.. Marcantonio asked
unanimous consent that debate OF
the bill be dispensed with, Repre-
sentative John E. Rankin, Demo
crat, of Mississippi, objected.
"You cannot tell when or where
we will have a thunderstorm that
! might prove disastrous to our ava.
tors" said the Mississippian, as Il
debate would stop thunderstorms

New York's anti-discrimination
law, the first in the nation, is
success, Gov. Dewey declared last
week. Discrimination, he said,
has dropped to a point never be-
fore believed possible since SCAD

The statements were part of a
message sent to the $50 delegates
from 400 lodges throughout the
country here to attend the 59th
annual convention of the independ-
ent order, Birth Abraham. Con-
tinuing, the governor said:
despite the i'll consequences
prophesied by opponents of the
measure before it was enacted,
employers are now acknowledging
that the commission has been a
genuine help to them in eliminat-
ing employment practices which
the statute made unlawful.

Wins Right To
Bring Baby Home

PARIS (ANP) - Finally win
ming a six-months' battle for GUS
tody of his son, after all claims
to the child were relinquished by
his French mother, John Mobley,
the 1O-months-old baby, left here
for the United States last week.
The boy, born in Toul, France,
had been the subject of a contro-
versy involving regulations of the
French and American govern
ments and the United States Ar
my. The father hitchhiked from
Toul to army headquarters in
Frankfurt, Germany, and then to
the American embassy in Paris, in
efforts to adopt his son and ar
range transportation to America.
A visa for the child to enter the
United States was obtained after
Gen. McNarney and the American
Red Cross wrote Washington
about the case. Special orders
were issued for Mobley to travel
on civilian status with his son.
He viii be demobilized upon ar
rival in Chicago, his home.
