BOSTON EX-MAYOR VISITS ENG.- LAND
lt is surely unnecessary for British
public men and British newspapers to keep on repeating that there is no thought of peace among the Allies, and that the war will be continued un- til Germany's power is completely crushed; but perhaps it is the only fitting answer, except aggressive nc- tion, to the _peace suggestions that have been set afloat in Germany. That there is absolutely only om spirit an- lmating` all classes in England is vouched tor by Nathan Matthews, for- mer Mayor of Boston, who has recent- ly returned home after s visit in the British lsles. To a reporter of the Boston Globe he said: “You hear no peace talk in England. Great Britain, transformed and united by the lessons of the war, is determined to see this struggle through to a, decisive end. It's one thought is to win. It has struck its gait in raising an army of volunteers, and for the production of the munitions it now realizes it must have."
NETB FOR SUBMARINE8
Mr. Matthews asserted further that
Britain hes' curbed the submarine menace of the Germans. He says that th_ei‘e is no doubt Britain has a great net across the Channel, for he had s. conversation with four men who hsd seen it at different times. “Anyone who crosses the Channel on it British transport," he says, "can see the buoys which- support it from shore to shore. One of the men I talked with, an oili- cer; told me me that the day he saw the net a. repair boat was at work upon it. The net is relatively light in con- struction and the heavy waves of the Cbsnnel frequently damage it. Patrol boats watch the net both for damage needing attention and for any catch thst might be made." The net is said to have meshes ten feet square, with smaller nets to immesh torped-
oes. Mr. Mattligws remarked that the Government tide no mention of the submarines captured, and no ref- ence at all to the methods adopted to cope with this danger. _A statement attributed to Sli' John French is to the effect that more than forty submar- ines have been caught or destr'oyed by the British' since the war began. Just what has been the bag, and how the
'ri-is Munrrlon M/txsrne
Mr. Matthews said that while the
British factories were not, at the time of his visit, completely organised to increase the supply of munitions, ‘they had made a great beginning. Britain took ten months to' wake up to the fact that she required not ,ten times, but ii million times, its much ammuniloti ss ln any previous wsr. Now that this fact has been grasped the change is wondei'ful,' and Mr.
Matthew; ssys the result will be won- derful. von the municipalities are going into the business of making
ssw there one of the lsrgest markets converted into sn sminunition fac- tory in which business and profes- sionsl men worked from toni- to eight hours ii. dsy melting shells. Not for some months,-llowevsr, will the supply reach its msximum, and un- til 's -huge surplus had been sccumu- lsted the genersi opinion is that there will be no great advance of the Brit- ish sud French srniiss.
|(lT¢HlNBR'8 ARMY 2,500,000 MEN
_there. Ninety pe_r cent: of the under-
ammunition with volunteer labor. He.
graduates ot Oxford and Cambridge had volunteered. In the laboring classes the volunteering runs from 25 to 33 per cent., and the real problem is to keep skiied mechanics at their regular jobs instead of joining the army which most of them are strong- ly inclined to do. ln one large plant with which he was familiar, 3,00 out of 10,000 employees have volunteered.
THE RESPO_NSE OF THE IRISH
He bore witness to the fact that
the Irish had magnificently respond- ed to the call for men. He thought that the Irish people living in Eng- liind and Scotland had offered them- seles in even larger numbers than Englishmen oi' Seotchmen. In Irelandl itself there are not the young men to volunteer. He emphasized the unity of the British people, which he' de- scribed as wonderful. Everyone was confident of ultimate victory; but everyone was ready to admit that the ilglit might be n. long and desperate one. There was no waning of the confidence in the Russian armies, whose defeats were universally attri- buted to s. shortage of ammunition.
REAL PROBLEM OF COTTON OROWERS
Col. Robert M. Thompson, one of
the leading American financiers, chair- man of the Board of the International Nickel Company, and president of the New York Metal Exchange, has con- tributed one of the most interesting opinions on the cotton situation. He points out that the war is not primar- ily the cause of the cotton problem of the South; that the war, in fsct, has been. and is likely to be even in the taco of the British declaration of cot- ton as absolufe contraband, n help to the South. What is the matter with the cotton growers of the South is lack of brains. If cotton were or- ganized and handled like oil oi' steel there would be no more trouble. ln other words, the truét idea as applied to cotton would add hundreds of mii- lions of dollars to the wealth of the Southern States in a few years. Unless there is brought into existence some such stabilizer as is $50,000,000 corpor- stioi the troubles of the cotton grow- ers are likely to continue indefinitely.
T00 MUCH COTTON PRODUCED.
In reviewing the causes that have
led up to the present crisis Col. Thompson points out that, while cot- ton prices ruled fairly high in 1911, 1912‘and 1913, they were broken when the tremendous crop of 1914 came on the market. This crop, more than 16,- 000,000 bales, was far beyond the im- mediate needs of the world; but, nev- ertheless it was forced upon the mar- ket snd prices tumbled. Because of the lack of sufficient buyers about 4,000,- 000 bales of cotton remained unsold. Now comes this year"s crop, estimated at 11,000,000 or 12,000,000 bales. With last year’s surplus, this, too is ini' beyond the immediate needs of the world. so it is evident that, war or no war, prices would be likely to recede aiid some cotton remain almost un- r-aleabie. Col. Thompson says that llnst yeni' it was the grower, ss usual. who lost. The man who bought cot- ton and held it :finds money, for des- pite the war cotton has been Boing abroad ns usual, and normally 05 per cent. of the crop is exported.
CHIEF IMPOHTERS OF COTTON.
Great Britain takes about 4,000,000
bales. Gennany and Austria 8.000.- 000. Francs slightly more than 1,000.- 000, Japan about 400,000. Belgium
200,000, and otirr countries about 1,00,000. Brits n closed the Ger- .msn nisrliet; Germany destroyed the Belgisn industry. end captured the quarter of France that contains most of the cotton spindles. Nevertheless
lrmi : more was they
elses
the export fell off only shout 800.000 holes, because Britain took about "00.000 more bsles than usual, sud Germany wss sble to sec\1l"e`sppi°ox- imsrtely 75 per cent. of her nofmsi imports through ltsiy. Hoiisini, Den- mark. Norway sud Sweden. ltsly jumped from less than 600,000 holes to more thsn one million; and the
other countries adjacent ` |o“0l!&`
many. -The cotton_which Britain has seized has been bought: and paid for et good prices, and German subma- rines have destroyed only 50,000 bales. lt must be plain that unless there were something seriously wrong with the cotton lndustry a inlling off in demsnd of only 800,000 bales could not upset the market.
Col. Thompson estimates that the
foreign demand for cotton will be two million bales short of last year. Ger- many will be able to get little or none, because cotton is absolute con- traband. Nevertheless, neutral and adjacent countries will naturally _buy more than usual because the Bremen market is closed to them. The entry of Italy into the war means that Italy will be n larger buyer than hereto- fore. He says that the only hope for the disposition of this surplus is that the manufacture of explosives and war accoutrements, the increase in American manufactures, and a greater demand by Japan will create a. larger market. There is a likeli- hood, however, of serious loss to hun- dreds of thousands of cotton growers. THE TROUBLE OF THE SOUTH.
The real trouble is that cotton is no
longer grown, as it was 50 years ago, by large planters who were wealthy enough to wait for their market. The average plantation in Georgia., for in- stance, is only 'I7 acres; and the average production per grower is only eight and a. half bales. ` The small growers depend wholly on their cot- ton. By the time it is ready for mar- ket they have reached the end of the rsources provided by the previous yesr’s crop. They must have an im- mediate markét. With the offerings coming on the market all at once, and with most of the growers in desperate need of money, it is plain that the buyers have a greet advantage. If the, cotton growers would only plant other crops the price of cotton would not be' s matter of life and death to them,‘ and states like Georgia would pot
have to ,import -50,000,000 worth of Western grain. Failing such a. revo- lution in the agricultural habits of; the South, all that remains is for e huge mutual corporation to enter the field, and thus control the product, us has been done with oil and steel.

MUST BE EXTENDED
STORY is so interesting that it
could not be terminated at the end of the flfteeiith installment and will now run for a total of twenty-two weeks. Most successful of all serials. -
when the current Universal serial
was first planned mid written it was outlined iii fifteen irstailmeiits of two reels unch. That is the nccepted length of serials and that was the in- tent of the scenario. “The Broken Coin" was a very interesting story and one which was sure to please tile thousands who want just such is seri- al as this. .lt was an assured success But now a very unusual and unpreced- ented thing has happened, and for the first. time in history the Universal will have a serial which runs over thirty reels in length. “The Broken Coin" will run forty-four reels before it is concluded.
When work was started by Francis
Ford, who is directing the serial, on the fourteenth installment, which con- tains sume of the most wonderful iight ing ever staged in a film, it was sud- denly discovered that lt would be ut- terly impossible to conclude the story in any such length as the four remain- ing reels. Kltty Grey had not come anywhere near solving the riddle of the lost jewels of the bankhupt prin- clpallty of Gretzhoffen and there were a greet many exciting things which just had to happen before she could find them. In justce to the story it was a positive crime to cut the act on short without showing all the stunts whlcli had been planned. Recourse was had to the main office and a couple of pages oi passionate telegram explain- ing the stuation were at once dis- patched to tlie'ohicers of the company. Aleeway of fourteen more reels was asked in which to tell the story with- out harmlng its intense dramatic val- ile. After a hurried consultation it was dec ded to allow "The Broken Coin" to run for the desired ,seven
weeks. Now everybody is happy a- gain. ' 3591-10-25Mll.
