the
Signature of
London, Juno 21—The closing of
the cotton future market In Liver-
pool was viewed with approval there
and in Manchester, where It. caused
no f-urprise. The incident fixes at-
tention on the critical iwxitlon of
the cotton trade which many hold
must result before loug in limiting
the output. Manufacturers are not
yet. however, agreed on such a step.
The Federation of .Master Cotton
Spinners recently took a vote on the
question of running for a short time
on organized lines but failing to get
the necessary eighty per cent support
tile priqKwsal was abandoned. The
..... failure to secure a majority was at-
that tribnted to the fear that noii-federated
employers would benefit by the sacri-
fices of the federated firms. The dif-
ficulty of finding a solution has in-
clined many firms to favor govern-
ment Intervention and the compulsory
limiting of output.
It is also suggested that the gov-
ernment take control of all cotton im-
ports us it has already done with wool.
Hut ns far as is known the govern-
ment lias done nothing In this direc-
tion. Government officials, however,
have approached the trade, inquiring
as to condition of affairs ami have
pointed cut the grave danger of a
serious dlmunltion in the amount of
employment.
Operatives vjow the situation with
great concern, ns they foresee the
probability ,of a restriction in output,
through a dimunitlon in supplies' of
raw material. Wages are cmnpara-
tivel.v low and although raised twenty
per cent since the war are insufficient
to meet the increased price of com-
modities.-.food alone having risen one
hundred per cent. The Times, com-
menting on tile situation say^
“The root of the whole t^Rlde is
tin* lin k of shipping, which made
worse by the submarine mi^H."
Egyptian Smoksra and Madntss.
An Egyptian smoker of hasheesh Is
even a more helpless slave than the
Chinese opium fiend. He knows that
in the end lie will become a madman,
yet be.rushes toward the uwful goal
with unrelaxed speed. With the
strange exaltation which first comes
to the smoker he feels himself floating
from cloud io cloud or alighting In the
gardens of palaces all his* own. Most
of the hasheesh which Egypt con-
sumes comes from Greece. From the
husks of the hemp seeds and the ten-
der hops of the hemp plant the Greeks
manufacture a greenish powder whose
fumes bring the ecstasy Its victims
desire.

a well known qpff highly resjiectable
