He cer tainly has not ehanged. His very re cent utterances show that. ' "If you have ehanged from that eom plete accord with him, I have not heard of it. Such a change ia not indicated by the vague and general expressions of your telegram saying that yon will accept reservations that will clarify, that will be helpful, that will reassure the American people, that won would sit down with the members of the Sen ate, that you would confer with Mr Wilson, Mr, Taft and myself, and all o the re who have a sincere purpose, etc,' because you are the one who would de termine what waa useful, what would reassure the American people, what Sd vice you would follow and you are sol emnly, publicly pledged to an agree ment with Mr. Wilson concerning the covenant he. brought bach from Eurepi. us Bcaervaiwa vaaauaiacipry.

There ia no other newer in our government to do that; but, if the umtea Btar.es makes S treaty agreeing to pay a mil lion dollars to another country, would anyone aay that the obligation eould be cancelled by a refusal of congress to appropriate the money. Certainly not; the only effect would be that the United States weald hsvs broken faith.

Yl. Plans for the organisation of a 112,000,000 cotton ex port snd crop financing corporation wers adopted at a meeting here late today of bankers and representatives of i cotton, interests attending the conven tion of tho American Bankers' Associa tion. The meeting approved suggestions contained in a report of a committee headed, by Bobert T.

Capital subscriptions, the plans sug gest, will be based on an assessment of 1 i bale on cotton raised ia the re apertive states thereby making the or ganization one of far reaching influence throughout all territory wliich has had difficulty in financing the- movement of the cotton crops. The decision to call for the initial payment of only half of the total capital means, therefore, that the subscriptions will be prorated among the purchasers of stock on the basis of 90 cents per bale. It was made clear by speakers at the meeting that the purposes of the corpo ration which will be organised ander the Edge act amending tha Federal Be se rve act is aot o hold cotton crop but to insure the commodity be moved "at a time when ths msrket is aot stag nant.''

Although there was as specific mention msds, there were indications that formation of us eorporatios would immediately epen the way for the sals of cotton in Europe, where the demand ia estimated at three to four million bales. The committee informed those in at tendance at the meeting that it would make "no extravagant promisee," but that it hoped that the eatabliahment of such a corporation would ds oi tre mendous benefit" to the south. The meeting was told also that the corpor ation would not prove a "remedy, for all ills," although it would, maxe pos sible the provision for markets ia Urns of emergency, such aa the cotton pro ducers are now passing through Although the corporation may in the future extend its operations to other commodities, those ia attendance urged that it devote its resources at first to tha handlins of this crop alone.

The speaker dwelt at considerable length on the necessity for adopting the income tax amendments in order that the State aot revert back to the 68 2 cents limitation with revaluation applied to all the property ia the State. He reiterated the atatement made several times in the campaign, that hia position oa taxatioa haa aot beea changed ainee hia Chapel Hill speech. Ia the primary contest he advocated tke income tax as a baiia for a system of taxatioa and that is just exactly what the Demoeratie legislature worked out. Parker, his Republican opponent, comes Slong and talks about the income tax amendment but he neglects th state that it ia insep arably linked to revaluation. Mr. Morrison disclaimed his primary nomination of the standard bearer of the party at the handa of the so-called Simmons-Watta organisation. He cape- eially gave credit to organised labor and the farmers of North Carolina for hia selection over Max Gardner and Robert N. Page. Another reference was made In hla speech here to the Wsyne Democrats in reply to Parker's charge that he was a lawless eitiaen in ths nineties and therefore "unfit for governor.' He was proud to have worn the red ahirt then, be explained, and ho ia willing to put it on again if the black cloud ever arises to menace the supremacy of white man's governmsnt in North Carolina. He waa frequently cheered during the speech and practically the entire audi ence remained to greet him personally at hia conclusion.
