(By The Associated Press) BERLIN, Monday, Oct. i:i Sugges tions from the jgntentw mat Germany join in the blockade of soviet Russia have not as yet been officially considered by the German cabinet, but have inspired a statement indicating the government 's answer will neither be an unconditional refusal nor an indication of assent. It is said that Germany will suggest the installation of an international commis sion to deliberate on the proposition which unquestionably found Germany unpre pared and places her in a quandary. Primarily, the government takes the po sition that it cannot participate in an en terprise tantamount to the hunger block ade imposed upon Germany five years ago.

Better cotton through careful seed selection was promised to growers by E. C. Ewing in a paper delivered today before the World Cotton Conference. Tracing the growth of cotton experi ments by the Department of Agriculture for the last ten years Mr. Ewing showed that staple cotton developed by selection has evidenced marked improvement in grade and has withstood more easily the attacks of the boll weevil. The best re sults he declared had been obtained from seed of the Express variety which fruits early and has a high lint percentage. Hybrid strains of cotton produced by crossing seeds with the Express variety have shown excellent results and it is by this means that the continued improve ment of cotton is expected. State and government institutions are looked to to carry on the systematic improvement of cotton as the average farmer is not con sidered equipped to produce depeudable seed. Seed stock of the average grower ia sure to become contaminated when a va riety is widely cultivated, it was pointed out, and it is in this connection that well organized seed farms can perform valua ble service. By maintaining the purity of the seeds by selection and isolation the seed farms can render available to the farmers adequate supplies of seed as needed from time to time. Unless there is a source for pure seed or an improved variety the growers ' stock must necessa rily deteriorate. But through the work of seed farms and experimental stations in the care of the standard varieties and the develop ment of new seeds, Mr. Ewing predicts that substantial benefits to the industry will be continuously forthcoming. COTTON INDUSTRY IN ARIZONA PRESENTED TO CONFERENCE (By Associated Press.) NEW ORLEANS. Oct. IX Growth of the cotton industry in Arizona was trac ed by Dwight B. Heard today tofore the World Cotton Conference. In his address on new sources of cotton, production, Mr. Heard gave the history of American Egyptian cotton in the Salt River Valley, Arizona. In no section of the globe does the sun shine more regularly than in Salt River Valley except in Egypt, he said, and in llucj it was found bv analysis that the Vri.ona land was almost identical with the soil of the delta lands of Egypt. By government experiments the American- Egyptian cotton known as Pima was de veloped wliien last vear produced a yieni f .14. .'.nu bales in the Salt River Valley. Because of its immunity from the boll weevil the fait uiver auey does no. suffer from the handicap to the industry hat other sections of the country bear. Mr. Heard told the conference; and any lauger of infection is being curtailed by the co-operation of tthe I hpa rt meiit of Vgricnlture.

" SOVIET GOVERNMENT READY TO EVACUATE MOSCOW COPENHAGEN. Oct. 14 - The Bus sian soviet government at Moscow has been making preparations to evacuate that city ever since the fall of Kursk, ac cording to a report from Helsingfors to the Berlinske Tidende. Kursk was captured by General Deni kine's army in mid-September. The city is :!.'!.'l miles south of Moscow. Its cap ture, with communicating railway lines, gave General Denikins a base for an ad vance on the important railway center of Orel, about 100 miles to the north, and early this month his forces were re ported within 30 miles of the latter city. A wireless report from Denikine's head quarters Monday claimed the repulse of a bolshevik attack in the vicinity of Orel and the gaining of additional ground. JERSEY CITY. N. J., Oct. 14.

Charlotte Mob Wanted to Lynch Police ' man on Night of Car Barn Riot in Au gustThreatened to Dynamite Barn. Charlotte Observer. j That the mob which gathered at the Charlotte street car barn on the night of August 25 last threatened to lynch a iuemler of the police force on duty there and that it was proposed to dynamite the barn in order to "get" the "strike breakers" quartered therein were some of the facts brought out yesterday throguli signed statements made by offi cers of the law who were on the scene that night. The occasion for the statements was a declaration by J. Frank Flowers, candi date for mayor on the recall ticket, that if he were shown that the shooting by the policemen at the car barn that night was justified, he would no longer charge that what the police officers did there was unlawful. Mr. Flowers' communication is printed on the editorial page of to day's Observer, under tiie head of "The Open Forum." Showing that unlawful acts were com mitted by tog mob at the car barn that fateful night, signed statements were made yesterday by Chief of Police Wal ter B. Orr, Sheriff N. W. Wallace, Depu ty Sheriff V. P. Fesperman and 30 police officers who were present. The facts shown by these statements include: That the first shot was fired by a member of the mob; that the crowd cursed and threatened to lynch the man who hit Clem Wilson, the crowd began to yell "Lynch Merritt!" "Bring him out!" "Get a rope!" "Here's a limb!" "We will hang him;" that la ter some one in the crowd yelled "Bring on the dynamite; let's get them now; we'll blow it up," and a number of oth er threatening remarks, and that a crowd did surge into the power house bent on "getting" Policeman Merritt. The statement of Sheriff Wallace, Dep uty Fesperman, Chief of Police Orr and the 30 policemen, telling what occurred at the car barn the night of the riot, fol low: I went to the car barn with Sheriff Wallace alout 9:30 and there were about 1,500 or 2,000 people in front of the barn when we arrived. Policemen were trying to keep the crowd on the sidewalk. This kept up continuously until I heard some shooting in back of the car barn and Chief Orr and some of his men rush ed to the rear and when they came back the crowd had gathered in front of the barn. Tne chief and his men pushed them back out to the sidewalk ajnl I saw Clem Wilson lying on the ground. Then the crowd commenced to curse and threaten to lynch the man who hit Clem Wilson. He was later taken to the hos pital. Someone said Merritt hit him. The crowd then began to holler "Lynch Merritt!" "Bring him out!" "Get a rope!'' "Here's a limb!" "We will hang iim!'' Sheriff Wallace went out and talked to the crow. I. I could not hear what he said, but he came back; then the cn.wd all raised their hands and went to the power house. I heard one man say. .Ml who will follow me hold up their hands we'll get him.-' Quite a number held up ftieir ban Is.

About that time someone said ".lohn, bow is ilem?" He said "I don't know; I haven 't saw him. ' ' I said ' ' He is all right John: She: iff Wallace and myself have .just come from th iospital and the nuise said he will be all right when lie gets soImt. he is nut hurt." He says, "Well. I want to see the chief; where is he'" I said "He is standing in front of the car barn." He said. "Call him." I said "You call him: he is standing over ther." He walked straight across toward the barn with both hands in his pants pockets. As he crossed the side walk on to the company's property to ward the barn a crowd fell in lehind him and I lost sight of him. I heard him call the chief and X tieard the chief answer, but I did not hear what was said. I turned back to Warren and he said, "Well, I am going." About that time there started loud talking behind me and someone hollered. " Bring on the dynamite!" Iet's get them now we'll blow it up!" and a number of other threatening remarks. A pistol fired at my back, then almost instantly a rifle, t' en everything went up like a match had lieen touched to a powder can." V. P. FESPERMAN. Deputy Sheriff. I went to the car barn about 9:3f or not later than 10 o'clock.- At this hour I should estimate that there were about 1,000 to 1,500 men, women and children in the streets. About 1 jJrIock Mr. John Wilson approached the chief of police and asked if " He hit his brother or if he knew who did hit him," or something to this effect. I understood the chief to say that he did "not know who hit him, if he did know he would tell him." Someone remarked to my left and to my back that " of a cheap chief of police is the mai that hit him." Just about the time that he made that remark a pistol cracked to my left and to my back and about where the remark came from. Then the chief's gun went off and was fired in the air. I am sure that Chief Orr did not fire the first shot. Between the hour of my arrival and the time of the shooting I heard many threats and con siderable cursing. V. W. WALLACE.

Those Who Snow Say There WW Net Be Another Mill Built Soon Foxes Plen- tifuL Clover Cor. Yorkville Enquirer. Since the recent sale ot the Clover Cotton Manufacturing Company to for eign interests, there has been consider able local rumor and simulation as to' whether or not Clover would have a third cotton mill right away. It will not, ac cording to prominent local citizens who have lieen more or less associated with the rumors and who were interviewed this week by The Enquirer's correspondent. Rumor has had it that the local stock holders in the Clover Cotton Mill having just learned a mill is a good thing through the pleasant experience of draw ing down the big stock dividends that have come to them recently, would be right in for a third mill in order that they might add to the ducats they have. But it looks just now that it wont be. The opinion of local leaders and thinkers and men with money is that it would be next to imjiossible to build a cotton mill now because of the scarcity of labor and the inability to get materials and supplies ami that quite a number of people who up until a few weeks ago considered cotton mill stock the best in vestment possible, don 't think so much of it now. It will be some time before Clover 's third cotton mill is erected say those who know or who think they know. Mr. Robert Whitesides who lives in the vicinity of Henry's Knob and as "Bob Whitesides," has a reputation of wide extent 'as a fox hunter, was talk ing fox hunting the other day. He sees lots of "signs" here of late that lead him to believe there are a good many foxes in the vicinity of the Knob again. Because of the fact that foxes ranging in the Knob section and up around King 's Mountain and Crowders have been getting scarce in late years, Mr. White sides has about quit fox hunting and has no dogs except a few rabbit hounds. But he says that due to the fact many of the hunters were away in the fall of 1917 and all of last year hunting Huns, the foxes have had a chance to multiply and the "signs" which do not fail show that they have come back again. ELIMINATES TYPESETTING. ( By The Associated Press ) NEW YORK, Oct. 13. Elimination of typesetting, one of fhe costliest opera tion of magazine production, by the use of plates made by photographing the original typew ritten copy has been ac complished in the October 18 issue of the Literary Digest," consisting of 80 pages. This radical innovation, which was brought about by the printers' strike in this city, leads the publishers to suggest that "it is possible in tliis age of marvels that the whole future of magazine production may be revolu tionized by the elimination of typeset ting. The make up of the magazine is in no way changed, the only difference be ing that the style of the type is that use.l on typewriters and is uniform in all the reading matter throughout the number.
