COTTON
NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, Sept. Is. Up
Cotton futures were strong to-
day. Trading was active and with
the exception of the opening,
when light hedging made Its
appearance, offerings were very
light. The market at times rallied
81. so a bale with final prices up
S2.25 to $4.35 a bale.
Heavy buying came into the
market, following a limit rise IN
wheat and strong markets Tor
other commodities.
Despite increased movements
of new crop cotton in the South,
hedge sales so far this season
have been light.
Some dealers attributed t h e
small volume of hedge to sharply
higher values for other commodl-
ties, and felt that producers might
be waiting for higher values to
hedge their cotton.
Textile mills also bought cot
Ton futures, covering further
sales of print cloths for second
quarter 1948 delivery.
Futures closed $2.25 to $3.50
a bale higher than the previous
close.

Shoots Family To Prevent Being "Fenced In"

MAPLEWOOD, N. J., (P)-Po- lice posted a guard today at the hospital bed of a 76-year-old re- tired jeweler who, they said, told them he had attempted 10 w.pe out his entire family because a new apartment development was fencing in" the 2l2-story frame dwelling he had spent 3 years in beautifying.
 Police Capt. Howard Dowd said that the man, Frederick F. Dieter, had signed a statement saying he had shot and killed his son and seriously wounded his wife, daughter -in-law and dog because he was certain his family's privacy and comfort were now at an end and that therefore he didn't want to leave behind anybody l loved"
 Dieter himself suffered bullet wounds in the head and right hand, the first being the result of what police said was a suicide at tempt and the second the climax of 20-minute Sunday morning gun duel in which his weapon was shot from his grip. Capt. Dowd said he came out then from the cellar of his home shouting, Don't hurt me. I'm an old man."
 Dowd said the son, Frederick, Jr., 50, was found dead in his bed with a bullet through the head. The sons wife, Mary, 47, was also in bed, bleeding from a bullet wound in the neck. The wife of the elder Dieter, Lena, 66, was found slumped over a windowsill where she had been screaming af- ter being struck by two bullets.

Kansas City Elec- ton Frauds Are Matter For Courts

WASHINGTON, (P)- Republi- can Congressional leaders marked off the Kansas City vote fraud charges today as a court matter and something to talk about in the coming political wars.
 Although Senator Rem tR.-MoD told a reporter he will not reach a decision until later, a Republi- can leader who declined to be quoted by name said it is his judgment that the issue will not be revived when Congress meets again in January.
 Rem had sought Senate approv- al of a resolution calling for spe- cial investigation of Attorney General Clark's handling of the charges of vote buying and other irregularities which arose as re- suit of last years Democratic purge" primary in the fifth Mis- souri district.
 In that race, President Truman supported Enos A. Axtell, who won over incumbent Rep. Robert C. Slaughter. Axtell, however, lost to Albert Reeves, Jr., a Re- publican, in the November elec- tion.
 The charges of Rem and Sena- tor Ferguson R.-Mich) that Clark "whitewashed" the investigation seemed almost certain to be re- peated and expanded by Republi- can orators busying themselves with the l948 Congressional and Presidential campaigns.

HOLIDAY Classic
By James Rundles

Tougaloo, Miss. - The Bulldogs
of Tougaloo College Fixed out a
20 win over the Jackson College
Tigers her last Thursday after
noon. A record crowd of holiday
thrill seekers and ex-grads wer
on hand to witnes the Bulldogs
homecoming clash with the jack
son eleven. The game was marred
by flood of fumbles on both sides
of the score card. The score itself
was the result of tumble. A low
pass from center that slid along
the shoe laces of Jimmy Roberts
and skidded loosely to the turf, re-
suited in his being hemmed in and
hauled down behind his own goal
line early in the first period for
the Tougalo safety and the two
points that proved be the ball
game.
Scoring opportunities wer many
for both squads. Early in the sec:
ond period the bulldogs initiated
a drive that carried to the Tiger
16. On the first play from scrim-
mage, Dillon intercepted Bnder's
toss on the Tiger 10 and ran it
out to the 26. Three plays, and a
penalty against Tougaloo for hold
ing carried the ball to the Bull
dog 30. With second and seven,
Magee's aerial attempt was inter-
cepted on the Tougaloo % by
by Scott who was down the side
lines to the 40. A tumble on the
first play ives recovered by Jack
son on the Dc and after a series
of downs the attack of bottle teams
was stymied around midfield un-
til halftime.
Midway the third period, Tou-
galoo, on recovered tumble, with
Bender in the drivers seat, pow
cred to the Tiger IS. On the next
play Howard picked up 8 more
his on right tackle. With the second
and seven, Bender tossed out to
his right and Roberts intercepted
on the Is and dived forward two
yards as he hit host of tacklers.
