COTTON INDUSTRY ON A SOUND
BASIS.
The final ginning report for the year
shows that more than 13,000, 000 bales of
cotton were raised in the United States
last year, the crop being the largest since
the record crop was produced in 1014.
The fact that cotton prices have, .remain
ed* around the 25rCent level despite the
iluHrttW thtttr the -hidUstfT US
back bn a rather sound basis again after
the years of uncertainty following the
war.
The cotton icrop of 1924 is approximate
ly half a million bales greater than was
estimated by the government in its De
cember report, and at the same time it is
nearly 200,000 bales greater than the
crop of 1920, which was the largest since
the record harvest of more than 16,000,-
000 in 1914.
Cotton consumption figures made pub
lic several days ago show two important
facts: That more cotton is being used in
the United States than before and that
conditions in Europe are more stable.
Both are factors in the present price of
cotton. Usually when a crop as large
as this year’s is raised the price of cot
ton declines. Not so this year, or at
best not so to a marked degree. The
price has been around twenty-five cents
for months and there is no indication of
a break.
We have used much cotton in the Unit
ed States and at the same time exports
have been high. Foreign mills have been
purchasing raw materials in large lots
and apparently. *ve been making more
sales than at 4ny time since the war.
With the increase in foreign business and
tflth American mills on a more normal
schedule now, cotton prices should remain
favorable for both the raider and the man
ufacturer. i
Cotton fanners should be careful of
one thing, however, They should not
plant too much cotton this year. They
are going to have to fight the weevil
mighty hard after the unusually warm
winter, and they should strive for better
crop per acre than for an, unusually large
acreage.
PACIFISM AS BAKER SEES IT.
Pacifism has come in for much discus
sion in' recent years and many persons
who have called themselves pacifists have
been criticised. Many of them deserved
, t(V be criticised for they did not know
just what they thought There were many
others, however, who did kpow what they
thought. They did oot want war; they
did all they could to prevent war, but
once war came they did all they could to
win.
Newton D. Baker, former Secretary of
War, in an address delivered recently
before the convention of the Reserved Of
ficers' Association, took “Itocifism” As
his subject and he discussed it most in
telligently.
"I am a pacifist,” Mr. Baker said. “I
apt a pacifist in my hope; I am a pacifist
.in m; prayers; I am a pacifist in my be
lief that God made man for better things
than that civilisation should always be
under the Might of this increasingly dead
ly destruction which war leavaa us. And
I am a pacifist in believing that the real,
contribution to that sentiment lies in ade
quate, sane preparedness on the part.of
any free people to defend its liberties.

some other name. I am perfectly will-
j HUNT’S WASHINGTON LETTER
: By HARRY B. HI NT
NEA Service Writer
j Washington—Much has been said and
will be said as to “the influence of “par
tisanship” in the action by the Senate in
twice rejecting the nomination of (.‘has.
Beecher Warren to be United States at
torney general. . ,
The cry of “partisanship” is easily
raised. It is difficult to refute. It is
a charge that easily catches the pub
lic attention, and in the absence of a
full understanding of a given situation
is likely to be accepted by the public as
the chief basis, on which opposition is
founded.
It is most probable that the country
now believes and will continue to be
live that partisanship was the controlling
factor in the struggle over the Warren
appointment.
That it was a factor, no one who
knows politics and human nature will
doubt.
But that it was the controlling fac
tor, any one who followed the develop
ment of the fight will—privately if not
publicly—deny.
. The question that should always be
balanced against the view that the 46
votes against Warren were purely par
tisan votes is:
“To what degree were the 3ft votes
cast favorably to Mr. Warren influ
enced by similarly partisan considera
tjjjns?" t
The truth would 'be. of course, that
partisanship played equally as dominant
a part in the fight to put Warren across
as it did in the fight to block his con
firmation. j

The lack of enthusiasm over the War
ing to have its constitution changed as i
anybody may want to change it. I am 1
perfectly willing to throw it on the scrap 1
heap just as soon as we get something ‘
else that will do the job better. I am (
indifferent as to the matter. i,
“Peace will not come by merely wish- ,
ing for it. We must work .for it. We i
must fight for. it. We must be willing to j
abate something of our prejudices in the 1
matter.” j 1
The Charlotte News agrees with Mr. . 1
Baker and fays further that “Pacifism, j
first and iast, inflicts upon us the duty, |
individually and collectively to do all i
within our power, to strive earnestly and ,1
without check, to prevent war. but when
war comes in spite of everything that has I 1
been done to beat it back, then pacifism | J
does not' require aught of any man ex-1'
cept that, for the sake of his country \
and his flag and common honor and right, ,
he throw himself unreservedly upon the i
altar of sacrifice.” i
THE MEANING OF DREAMS. I
A writer in Popular Science gives
some interesting information on dreams. '
“Many persons." he says, "are afraid of
their dreams. Superstition lias more pow
er in this field than in-almost «ny, othejr.
It is because human knowledge of dreanis 1
has come so slowly. For thousands of 1
years -scientists have attempting to ' ]
pry beneath the darkened glass that has '
obscured this mysterious function of the |
human mind. ,
“In the last 20 years we have made
more progress in understanding dreams ;,
Bhan in many centuries before. We are .
at last seeing possible answers to the re-' >
curring questions of mankind: What are
dreams? What causes them? What do
they mean? Our most recent and sig- •
nlficant experiences all point toward ex
ternal causes for dreams.
l“Examinatiou of thousands of dream- ;
ers has enabled us to learn that the most
common dreams are eight in number, and
every one of these can be traced to some
physical cause. The most common dream
of all is said to be that of wandering
about with insufficient clothing. In this,
almost always, the dreamer awakes to find
that the bed clothing has fallen from him,
leaving some.part of his body uncovered.

I f=o ft you |}J/ W S<s-C3t • CS The: j
ren appointment, on the Republican side
of the Senate, was at all times strikingly
evident.
Warren is do more popular with a
lot of the older Republican wing in the
Senate than lie is with the Michigan
represenntation in Congress.
And hi« fellow Michiganders turned
thumbs down on him.
One staunch G. O. P.- publication, |
which made a pool of Republican sena
tors, reported that only five members
could be registered as out-and-out War
ren supporters.
The other 34, the inference being, were
voting for him because of party regular
ity, on the theory that the president
ought to have a free hand in naming his
own cabinet. .
* * *
If nothing else, the result has demon
strated that the “safe party control’ the
president was said to hold in the new
Senate has gone glimmering before any
legislation has been brought before that
body.
For not only did the four “insurgents”
who have been expelled from she G. O.
P. family by the Senate caucus—La Fol
let.te, Ladd, Frazier and Brookhart—
vote against the president’s dearest de
sire, but seven others stepped out of the
party lineup to record their opposition.
-These were. Borah, Couzens. Howell,
Johnson. Xorbeek. Norris and McMnster.
With Sliipstead. a Farm-Labor sena
tor, this makes a total of 12 votes that
may, as they desire, exercise a veto on
administration plans. With the Demo
cratic strength of 40, this group, which
already has foreifted administration
j favor, can effectively block any O. O. P.

tisan.”
after something, a trolley car, for exam
ple. It :s terrible, for in the dream your
feet are fastened to the ground; Exert
ing every muscle and breathing as hard
as you can, you make no progress. The
car disappears in the distance. x Tlien you
[ woke to find that your nose is’stuffed with
cold and you are out of breath—again an
actual physical sensation.
; "The dream of food, another common
experience, usually can be traced to the
j sensation of hunger. Dreams of murder
and death usually are traceable to indi
gestion. An alteration of the blood sup
ply to the teeth, or dental decay, may
bring a dream that you are in the den
tist's chair. For centuries, people have
been trying to “interpret" dreams. But
it is only in the disclosures of physical
! disorders or similar things that dreams
jliave meaning. Thus a man who bad a
series of dreams that a wildcat was claw-
I ing at his throat was found to be -suffer
ing from cancer of the thront. There isr
nothing, though, science has found, in the
so-called ''prophetic dreams’ those htat
tell one where to find lost finger-rings
and massing wills, or that disclose in ad
vance the dinners of hoi'se races or stocks
that are due for a rise.”

The Tide Turned.
Charity and Children.
The late Legislature did a good many,
things wise and otherwise, but there is
one thing to its credit that no man can
belittle or deny, nnd that is. it complete
ly reversed the tide of wild extravagance
in the administration of our government
that was fast leading ns to disaster.
Ruthless exitosure of reckless expendi
ture put the plungers completely out of
business. Instead of being crowned ns
heroes, these champioins of progress sud
denly found themselves on the defensive.
The public changed ft s mind over night-
The war cry "forwarjj.” which had wel!
night ruined the state, was changed to
"stop, look and listen." Did you ever in 1
all your life see so complete and sud
den a reversal of public opinion? No
body is sorry that the state nas made 1
progress but everybody is glad that we 1
are looking about now to find away to
pay for that progress. The issuing of
bonds by the million had completely :
demoralized us. It. made us spend
thrifts. and we forgot that there is such
a word as economy iu the dictionary. It
was plainly revea’ed in the high rolling
officials around Raleigh, but it seeped all
the way down to the very bottom of the ,
social order. The General Assembly had
wisdom enough to see the drilt and to ,
scent the danger; and it applied the
brakes at. the very beginning of the ses
sion and kept them tight to the very
end. They listened .to the Governor.
Out of two score measures be -proposed,
all' but one or two were accepted and
passed. The ffeet of this return to sanity
nnd business sense by our lawmakers is
bound to have a wholesome influence on i
all our people high and low, great and
small, rich and poor. It is a remarkable
fact that exactly the same effect has
been produced in our national life by the
rigid policy of economy demanded by the
I’resident of the ‘United States. The
tendency to national,, extravagance has
been checked. The pay as you go plan is
coming into public fayor once more. Let
us hope that our peotde everywhere are
learning over again the lesson we had
about forgotten, namely, that it takes
cash t,o settle bills while credit only post
pones their payments.
