"Mr. i’halrniun, we are In sympathy

That old competition Is settled, so fur ns
the western world goes. It Is still on
the Orient, but eveu there, the iU«St
lightened oliservers declare, tbo Issue
clear. As Against the ancient Idolatries,
Jehovah has won. The very names of the
gods of Israel's nelghlmrs are mere matters
of autbiunrlnn Interest. In the expressive
colloquial speech ..f the day. they are
“dead ones.’’ Today the nature of the
conflict has shifted. Now It Is between
Jehovah and worhllliiess, lietwecu Jehovsh
and human seltlshnesii. ,Tlie^ are the
twentieth century Idols that dispute Jeho
vah's claim to the allegiance of man. Here

there existed, in the old Testament era* In
the minds of l*oth the’ Jews and tu th*

Idea that Jehovah was In competition with

lie said that they had warehouses In
Havannali, one for compressed and one
for uncompressed cotton, but the stor-
a#e rate wbn the same.
Mr. Jordan said that the heads of the
great marine lir,uruncc companies In
London had told him that the rate on
American cotton was abnormally high
because of the poor baling.
Mr, Hanson declared that an uncom
pressed bale of cotton would shed water
like a "duck,” while the compreseed
cotton would "drink It like a sponge."
"This discussion Is becoming acn-
demfc," said Chairman McLendon. "It
Interesting, but wo had better get
down to the case."
Ho you object. Mr. Hanson, to th*
small compress having the same rale,
a* the large compresses?" asked Mr,
Jordan.
"I do not," was the reply.
In reply to a question he said he did
not have a dollar’s Interqgt In tlie At

’i am simply Its hired president,” he
said.
He stated that he did have an inter

thnt ho owned no gin in Us territory.
Mr. Green said Ills company always
made allowance for compressed cotton,
but not to exceed the mat of compres
sion. He said when shippers were pre
pared to offer compressed cotton at
Initial points, the Houthern was ready
to treat with them.
"Doesn’t Inman, Akers ft Inman own

"They do," replied Mr. Green.
"You pay them for compression, do
you not?"
"I believe w
"Well they oompres* for a profit, do
they not?" asked Commissioner Calta-
”1 think It Is so, and we must cer
tainly cease paying them for compres
sion." replied Mr. Green.
At this point the testimony was con
cluded and the commission went Into
brief executive session.
John O. Little, for the glnner* and
shippers at a number of points opened
the argument against the differential
rate. He gave It as hls opinion that to
make a differential rate would result In
putting 2,000 to 1,000 gins out of busl-
r.esr. entailing a less nt JS.SS0.990.
"The theory of compression Is good,
but, gentlemen, you are tampering with
a dangerous thing when you attempt to
change the existing system."
Mr. Little’s argument covered tho
whole range of the question, lie con
cluded st I o’clock, when the commis
sion adjourned for lunch. At 2:30
