General Pe dro Nel Ospina, who assumed presi dency of the Republic of Colombia on August 7, has appointed a nation al cabinet, giving representation in it to all political parties, and sur rounding himself with some of the most eminent men in his country. It is noteworthy that General Benjamin Herrera, the candidate opposing the present chief executive in the recent election:;, has been appointed secre tary of the treasury. Doctor Carlos A. Urueta, former minister of Colombia in the United States, has been made secretary of foreign affairs. Doctor Miguel Jimenex Lopez, a man of science and of progressive ideals, was named to head the de partment of the interior. Carlos Velez Danies, owner and promoter of some of the largest in dustrial enterprises of Colombia, has been appointed secretary of war. He ,is at present interested together with certain American business men, m the development of a large packing house on the Atlantic coast of Co lombia. The other departments of the gov ernment have been placed in hands of experts along their respective lines. The department of finance has been entrusted to Felix Salazar, a prominent banker and financier; and that of public works to Alejandro t n,.fqh o pnmneer woo LONDON, Sept. 4. If Great Brit ain should have the misfortune to be engaged in another big wart it is safe to predict that no cases of "shell shock" .will appear among her list of casualties. The first recommendation of the war office committee on shell shock, whose report has just been published, is that the term should be cut out of the official language. "War neurosis" is considered to be the best general term. "Shell shock" is declared to be wholly misleading, because it occurred to patients who had never been even within hearing of a shellburst. "It is no surprise to find that the general lay conception of the term was very loose and ill-informed," the committee state. "There was such anxious solitude during the war as to the incRDaeitated, and such was the appeal of the term "shell shock, that this class of case excited more general interest and sympathy than any other, so that it became a most desirable complaint from whioh to suffer. "No case of psycho-neurosis, or of mental breakdown, even when attrib uted to a shell explosion, should be classified as a battle casualty any more than sickness or disease. "In many cases," say the commit tee, "it is extremely difficult to dis tinguish cowardice from neurosis, as in both fear is the chief casual fac- rwi Stnhlm. D. S.

He speaks in the highest terms of Mr. Howard, who is sales manager for this asso ciation. This letter is addressed to Mr. Howard himself: "Dear Mr. Howard: We read with a great deal of interest yesterday in our local paper of your-appointment to the position of general sale man ager of the American Cotton Grow ers Exchange. The association has made a very wise selection in our opinion and we wish to congratulate it upon the appointment. We are sure you have a great work ahead of you and if our firm can be of assistance to you in buying from the association from time to time, we will be only too glad to do so. There are great possibilities in this new organization ami we wish it every success. The writer wishes to add his per sonal congratulations and best wish es for your success. "Alexander Sprunt & Son." RALEIGH, Sept. 4. The cotton crop of both North Carolina and the cotton belt shows the phenomenal decline of over 13 per cent during August, which resulted in a decreas ed forecast of 825,000 bales. Added to tl"vas an additional one percent dccrilrTe in acreage and 367,000 bales due to abandonment since June 25 when the regular abandonment re port is accounted for. These condi tions forecast a crop of only' 10, 575,000). bales as compared with the short crop of 7,954,000 bales last year. Thus the crops of both this and i last year will be but little more man a single crop of 1914 whe nover 16, 135,000 bales were produced. The condition a year ago was 3 percent less than on August 25 this year, but the unusually favorable fall conditions and lack of boll weevil resulted in very fine per acre yields. The exceedingly continued wet con ditions in the coastal belt and serious Loll weevil damage in the southern half of the state cannot, this year, be so readily altered. Instead of the 77(1,000 bale crop of last year, it may he nearer to 700,000 bales. T'ue present conditions of cotton according to the United States Crop Reporting Board's release through Ihc cooperative crop reporting ser vice for this state are for this and last year as follows: North Carolina YOKOHAMA.

John L.

The selected design for the memo rial consists of a colossal figure m bronze, symbolic of Friendship, hold ing in her right hand a sprig of lau rel, and supporting with her left the flags of Brazil, and the United States intertwined with laurel and palm, in dicative of prosperity and peace.

The fact ""1 ' . . that the New York market begins, to hesitate at above 2,000 yen should be evidence that the American manu facturer cannot longer make and sell silk goods to' the. American people at prices based upon raw silk above that figure. He could in 19l and 1920. when the prices of finished goods continued to rise. "The action of the market in re cent months would seem to indicate that with a uniform, stable market butween 1.R00 yen and 2,000 yen the American manufacturer can do a fair business but above that he cannot meet competition with other fabrics. In cotton, artificial silk, and mercer ized cotton, the cost of raw material constitutes from 10 to 30 percent of the entire cost of the finished fabric. In silk, it is approximately 50 percent of the cost of the finished fabrics. This causes the silk manufacturer to be more sensitive to fluctuations in the. raw material than other classes of textiles." BORN AN 11-POUND BOY. Mr. .1. G. Stalls was all smiles Sun day morning.
