to impress the Turks that the- world
will not tolerate massacres such as
the slaughter of the Armenians in Ci-

would be more seveie.Beem to have no

make a show of military force with
Great Britain. France and Italy agreed
that quick action is necessary to save

WKEK’fl COTTON REVIEW.
NEW ORLEANS. March 8 —
Considerably Irregularity was shown by
tiie cotton market last week although
the general trend of prices was up-
ward in a moderate way. On the close
the net results of the weeks transac-
tions were gains of from 16 to 71
points.
March closed at 39.27c. which com-
pared with the closing prices on mid-
dling spots of 40.50c, spots advancing
25 points In tiie week’s net results.
Cold and wit weather over the belt
was mainly responsible for the de-
mand for contracts, although there
were times when a good demand arose
from the strong recoverTes in sterling
exchange and there was also a de-
mand following the announcement by
the shipping board of the wtowtlon
of a competitive basis on ocean rates.
Talk of an international loan for Ger-
many aid the persistent rumors of
large shipments of gold to this coun-
try by England Increased the demand.
Irregularity arose from the gelling
pressure that was felt by October at
times, caused partly by 'talk of a large
acreage and partly by uncertainty
over laws regarding tenderable grades.
Further irregularity was induced by
bullish activity In the near months,
credited by some traders Io strong
spot Interests. Thus far March has
brought no tenders hut there Is con
slant gossip that March contracts can
be liquidated only by the delivery of
spot cotton.

DALLAS. March 8. — Resolutions
adopted at the state democratic con-
ference here Saturday, of friends of
the Wilson administration, follow:
To Hon. Thomas H. Ball, chairman,
Democratic Conference:
On the eve of another presidential
campaign, the, loyal Democrats of Tex-
as stand ready to give battle to all its
foes whether those who from afore-
time have fought outside the party
who ought to be outside the party.
Wle make no apology for the admin-
istration of the affairs of this nation
under the Incomparable leadership of
Woodrow Wilson.
To recapitulate its achievements. Is
to summarize the record of construc-
tive accomplishments unsurpassed in
American History.
It celebrated its taking over the reins
of government by driving a bold and
ihsolent lobby from the nation's capi*
tai and keeping faith with the people
by revising a tariff not upward, hut
downward in behalf of tiie consumers
of the land.
It established the federal reserve
banking system that created a flexible
currency and has decentralized the
power of money and money power ami
robbed panics of their terror alike in
peace and in war
It lias established the farm loan
banking system, enlisting the power
and wealth of the nation in behalf of
a home-owning citizenship among the
farmers and producers of the land.
It has stood for an economic policy
in days of turmoil and conflict that
Bought to protect trt 1 property honest-
ly acquired and invested, but more and
more to the’ end that labor should be
recognized ,and rewarded with its Just
share of tiie wealth created by the
great army of toilers whether in field
or* shop or mine or factory.
It has stood with courage and wis-
dom for a Just and righteous settle-
ment. of warfare of different groups,
classes and interest midway between
tiie Bourbon and Bolshevik!, between
the complacent reactionary who puts
property above humanity and the blind-
ed Red. who. In his fanaticism, would
mill down the pillars of the republic.
It has passed laws distributing the
burdens of taxation so that in spite of
the imperfection and crudites that
should be overhauled, for the first time
in our history, the swollen fortunes
of tiie rich have borne a Just share of
the cost of government.
It has passed a shipping act that re-
stored the American merchant marine
so that once more the flag of American
commerce whitens the seven seas of
the world.
It has enacted a child labor law to
the end that no industry shall fatten
on the stunted bodies and minds of lit-
tle children.
It has stood for a sober soldiery in
time of war and for a sober citizenship,
in time of peace, and has givvm to
tiie sovereign states the privilege of
voicing under the constitution their
righteous Indignation against corrup-
tion and debauchery of the liquor traf
flc in tiie social, economic and politi-
cal Hfe of the republic. r
It has thrown itfY weight both in the
...... a„ „4 •
sums their responsibilities in the shap-
ing and moulding of American destiny.
More splendid than oonorbte accom-
plishments written into law is the itrfty
spirit of patriotism and unselfish stan-
dards of public servico set by the
President of this republic to all the
nations of the earth. '• j
Epoch-making as are the ■achieve-
ments of the national administration in
solving the complex and perplexing
problems of peace, it safeguarded the
nation’s honor In calling Americans to
arms and won the gratitude of world
as It piloted us to victory against the
mad ambition of German autoc.-acy for
world empire.
It raised and disciplined an army of
five million men; It landed th© flower
of youth in France with mazing ener-
gy, without the loss of a mnn under the
convoy of the American navy; directed
decisive blows on the battlefield three
thousand miles from home; it mar-
shaled the productive agencies of our
country for munition and feed for the
victorious army; it gave of Its resour-
ces and food for the peoples of the
earth; It financed our allies as they
were fighting, with us. for humanity
and freedom of the world. These con-
stitute the monument of Democratic
administrative efficiency that sluiU en-
dure to the latest generation 3x-
it has dreamed and wrought and
fought amid plots abroad and war plots
at home for a council of the nations to
end that the tragedy or war should no
longer redden the earth with t.lood and
whiten humanity with terror and tho
broken In body, we oommend the hero-
ic spirit of Woodrow Wilson ns he
stands today fighting agalntit destruc-
tive amendments of a covenant of peace
that shall give heart and hope to war-
torn world.
On this unexampled record of Demo-
cratic achievements iu the most try-
ing days of American history, the loy-
al and progressive democracy of Texas
goes forth unashamed and unafraid.

WOUNDED HERO TOO
HANDSOME; ARRESTED
(By InternatioYftU News Service)
PARIS, France. March «.—Because
ins new nose made him look too hano-
some, Jean Cuchllle, French war vet-
eran. was arrested after a free-for-all
fight at a tobacco store. It was only
after he had proved that he was
really wounded that he was released.
Misfortune overtook the rehabill-
Wited "inutile” wliile standing in line
tor the regular distribution of tobacco
which is customary at the Paris shops.
Tobacco being a State monopoly, lim-
ited supplies are sent to the licensed
stores at stated tinjes, and the men
line up to purchase on the “first come,
first served" plan. Tiie, stock seldom
lasts until the whole line has pur-
chased, ©o thb Government has decreed
that wounded soldiers shall have the
first place in the lines.
Cuchille was late, and edged in be-
tween two veterans, still wearing the
faded horizon blue, at the front of the
line. He was dressed In civilian clothes
of neat pattern and wore a large pair
of spectacles. To all appearances he
was a meek bank clerk, untouched by
the rigors of war.
The civilian crowd in the rear roar-
ed at him. “Get out of there," they
shouted. “Come back to the end of the
line where you belong.”
Cuchille simply glared back at them.
Then the is*bunded soldiers behind him
began to complain. “I've got a right
here!" he protested, but the protests
grew and one veteran darted out and
pulled Cuchille violently out of the
line. The nieek-looking civilian squar-
ed away and sent his assailant spraw-
ling. Others rushed out and civilians
Joined In. turning the long line- Into a
seething mass of battlers.
The gendarmes rescued Cuchille
from beneath the surging mass and
led him away to a point of safety,
reprimanding him sternly for not ob-
serving the rules.
Cuchille, talking at a machine gun
rate, unhooked his spectacles from bls'
ears and lifted Ills nose off with them.
The gendarmes and the crowd then
understood. He was ¥>ne of several
hundred mutilated French soldiers
who had been fitted with “Portrait
masks" by the American Tied Cross,
to cover mutilations which would
leave them unsightly horrors among
their friends. The masks are' made ot t
thin copper and enameled so cleverly f
