YBACK COTTON MARKET
Asheville, N. C., Nov. 22 (UP) —
Col. Raymond Robins, prohibition ad-
vocate who had been the center of a
national search since his disappearan-
ce two months ago, was kept in sp-
clueion today by physicians, although
it was announced he had “regained
his memory.”
Members of the little group who
surrounded the Colonel since his dis-
covery in the little town of Whittier,
where he had been known as “Rey-
nolds Rogers”, told a dramatic story
of his return to the world of actuality,
and his sudden recognition of Mrs.
Robins.
Dr. M. A. Griffin, who has had
charge of the medical aspects of the
case, issued a bulletin Ute yesterday
announcing Robins had recognized his
wife and a nephew, John Dreler.
The physician added to this bulletin
during the evening, with a two page,
typewritten statement describing Col.
Robins’ “return to consciousness",- as
related by Dreler.
The second statement related that
Col. Robins, holding hands with his
wife, called her "Margaret", and then

Couple Escaped With
No Injury, Less Money
Two negroes, Gaines Green, and
Ben Smith, were arrested late Mon-
day afternoon by Highway Patrolmen
Rose and Schauer and placed in the
city Jail. Examining trial will prob-
ably be held here today.
The negroes were arrested on the
highway about eight miles south of
Navasota for driving in the center of
the highway while going up a hill, the
view ahead of them being obstructed.
On making the arrest the patrolmen
found about two gallons of whiskey
in the car. The negroes were driving
a Model A Ford roadster.

were larger than expected, totaling 1,-
287,000 bales, the biggest in several
years, with the exception of last sea-

A recently signed Egyptian decree
restricts cotton acreage for next year
to 40 per cent for sakellaridis and 50
per cent for other varieties of the cul-
tivated area.
Spot cotton sales in the south are
running smaller than they have been,
but the basis continues steady.
Local are temporarily against
market, more because of the lack of
business than to any important mar-
ket factor.
Exports are falling off on account
of weakness in foreign exchange and
today they are only about 135,000 bal-
es ahead Of last year, compared with
an excess of 500,000 bales earlier in
the season.

ONE CAN TELL TALES
AS WELL AS OTHER
Chicago, Nov. 22 (UP) A poor
youth and a rich one faced separate '
charges today of having committed
murders which police and psycholo-
gists agreed were among the moat at-
rocious in the city’s recent history.
The porfr'youth, James Varecha, .17,
who twice escaped from an asylum,
pleaded not guilty to charges of mur-
dering Frank Jordan in a holdup. Po-
lice said that previously he confess-
ed not only to killing Jordan but to
shooting at least seven other men and
to attacking at least two girls.
The other boys, Charles Bertrand
Anold, 16, stared at the floor when
he appeared in court and heard a
grand jury’s recommendation that he
be held on a charge of beating to
death his stepmother’s mother, Mrs.
, Ellen Saxe, 60.
' ' Varecha, accused of carrying on a
■' reign of terror on the far south side,
had no attorney. A public defender
was appointed to represent him.
Arnold, whose father lives in the
village of riverside and Is a moderate-
- ' was repre-
sented by high prices attorneys who
had advised him not to talk. He fol-
lowed their instructions. Previously,
officers said, he confessed to the
charges.
After Varecha’s hearing, the youth
was led back to a jail cell. Arnold, a
romancer who appeared hurt when he
overheard a* policeman call him a
"punk", was taken to the largest hotel
in the world, waited upon by bellboys
and other servants while doctors wat-
ched every move he made in an ef-
