GDVERNNIENT TO FIX
PRICE OF COTTON AND
DIRECT DISTRIBUTION
Wilson Intends for Ordfer to
'Apply to Present Crop,
Southern Senators Were Told
at Recent Conference
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.- Senators
I from cotton growing states riise.kised
today that at their recent White House
conference President Wilson made it
clear it was his Intention not only to
I fix a price for this year’s cotton crop,
but also to order government control of
its distribution.
The president gave no intimation of
what he would consider a fair price, it
was said, and any action will await the
report of the special committee which
the president announced last week
would inquire into the general subject,
including production costs.
Government control of distribution, it
is claimed, is necessary owing to the
shortage of the present crop and in order
to make the available supply meet as
nearly as possible the demands which
have been greatly augmented by the war.
That some action will be taken by the
executive department without delay wad
the opinion expressed today by Senator
Underwood, of Alabama. Because of the
uncertainty of the situation, he said, the
cotton market is at a standstill!.

cil of national defense, last night while

that President Wilson had decided to fix
a price on cotton and that it would tie

products at the mills. Mr. Hooper con
ferred with J. A. Wade, Alabama com
missioner of agriculture, todaj' Mr.
* Wade will attend a meeting of the war
advisory board in Washington Monday
to discuss the matter.

| cotton. This statement and other statements
that may have teen made purporting to repre

terly without foundation. The secretary has ex

CASTOR IA
For Infants and Children
In Use For Over 30 Years
Signature of
Beer Money Is Loaned
To Brisbane to Buy Paper;
German Brewers in List
WASHINGTON, Sept- 20.—The federal
custodian of alien property. A. Mitchell
Palmer, tuarte public today the names
of the fifteen brewers, who, with the
United States Brewers' association
raised a fund of |407,i»00 from which
$375,000 wus loaned to Arthur Brisbane
to buy the Washington Tunes.
Mr. Palmer acted immediately after
the senate had passed a resolution intro
duced by Senator Jones, of New Mexico,
calling upon the property custodian to
show the proofs on which he made his
speech in Harrisburg. Pa., last Satur
day, describing the efforts of brewers
to control a newspaper in pro-German
Interest, to exert their influence upon
congress, and, finally, on which he
charged that the brewing interests had
advanced the money for the purchase of
a newspaper to ’light the battle of the
liquor traffic under the shadow of the
dome of the cajyiLol.”
Senator Klug, Li tab, wants the reso
lution referred to a sub-committee if
which he is chairman. This sub-com
mittee was created to Inquire into ac
tivities of German propagandists
through German language newspapers.
Senator King holds it can likewise in
quire whether papers printed m Eng
lish were used by German piopagan
dists.
Mr. Brisbane, in published statements
in the Times already has stated that he
bought the paper with money loaned
by C. W. Feigenspan, a brewer and pres
ident of the Federal Trust company of
Trenton, N. J.
Mr. Brisbane also has published a
letter 1 ■ <*m Feigenspan defining an ar
rangemoat by which the loan was syn
dicated to fifteen breewrs. Mr. Palmer
includes :n his disclosure this letter and
also documents to support his assertion
that the loan was made in away to con
ceal its course and purpose.
Included in Mr. Palmer’s papers are
copies of letters written by Alexander
Konta. evidently a German agent, to
Captain Hans Tauscher. notoriously as
sociated with German propaganda in the
United States, and to Dr. Bernard Dern
burg, Germany's chief propaganda agent,
upon the prospects of buying some great
American newspapers. Mr. Palmer con
nects these with his declaration that the
influence which the brewers' attempts
to exert was thoroughly in the interest
of Germany
Mr. Palmer declined to say where his
nfflcrt obtained the documents. He added
that they spoke for themselves. •
First among the doeumexits is' a let
ter from Feigenspan to Robert Crain,
whose office is in the building which
houses Mr. Brisbane’s Tinies, detailing
the .distribution of the $407,500 loan. Lt
was divided this way:
• Distribution of Fund
George Ehret, $50,000; C. Feigenspan.
$25,000; Julius Liebmann, $25,000; J. C.
G. Hupfel, $7,500; Jacob Ruppert, SSO -
000; Joseph E. I'lplein. $5).000; Edward
Landsberg, $15,000; Reuter and company.
$15,000; A. J. Hcughton company. slu,
000; William Hamm, $10,000; G. Pabst,
$50,000; Fred Miller Brewing company.
$15,500 (this sum was allotted among
five individuals at $3,000 eaThl; C.
Schmidt and Sons. $5,000; F. A.
Poth and Sons, $15,000; Bergner and
Engel, $10,000; United States Brewers’
association (adv.), $20,000; a total of
$407,500.
Os this sum, Feigenspan's letter
stated, $375Ji00 was advanced to the
Growing Circulation corporation. Mr.
Brisbane’s published statemerfts
the sum he borrowed through Mr. Fei
genspan at this amount.
Mr. Palmer’s documents quote the cor
poration directory for 1917 as describ
ing the Growing Circulation corpora
tion as being capitalised at SIO,OOO. hav
ing offices at 140 Nassau street. New
York City, and having among its di
rectors William A. DeFord, one of Wil
liam R. Hearst's lawyers; John T. Stur
devant and Thomas McEntegart.
The course of the loan, as it appears
to be shown by documents, the originals
of which Mr. Palmer states are in his
possession, shows first Six checks drawn
on the Federal Trust company by C. W.
Feigenspan, trustee, payable to the order
of the trust company, aggregating $400.-
000. and drawn between June 21, 1917
and January 25. 1918. There also is a
check for $35,000 drawn by Feigenspan
as trustee to Crain. Then follow five
drafts by the Federal Trust company on
the American Exchange National bank,
payable to bearer, aggregating $345.-
000. They were indorsed to be padd to
the order of “A. Thursby, Growing Cir
culation corporation, per L. B. Krause,
vice president. For deposit pay to
Equitable Trust Company.”
’’A Thursby." says Mr. Palmer’s an
nouncement, “is evidently Alice Bris
bane Thursby, whose address, acording
to the record at the Equitable Trust
company, is in care of Arthur Brisbane.
238 William street.”
Receipt for $260,000
The documents then show a note for
$300,000, dated June 21, 1917, payable
five years later to Feigenspan as trus
tee, and executed by the Growing Cir-1
('irtation Corporation. This is followed
by a receipt to Feigenspan, executed
by A. Brisbane, acknowledging $260,000
“to be used in the purchase of Mr. Mun
sey's newspaper in Washington by me."
The remaining $44).000 was to be paid
later.
The documents then include a state
ment by Feigenspan. dated July 30.
1918. win ch says:
“During tbe month of June, 1917, to
tii«: best of my recollection, the matter
of Uo Washington Times became of
mutual interest to Mr. Arthur Bris
bane and a number of brewers. Mr.
Brisbane, as I have been informed by
him. had an option to purchase the
Washington Times from Mr. Frank A.
Munsey for a sum which I recall as
being $500,000 The terms of this sale. :
as I recall them, were that $250,000,
was to be paid down, the balance to ba
paid in installments of $50,000 each
every six months.
“In order to bring about the purchase
of the Washington Tiroes, 1. at various
times, advanced Mr. Brisbane funds
through the Growing Circulation Cor
poration. which I believe is either own
ed or controlled by Mr. Brisbane. The
aforesaid funds were advanced on the
dates and in the amounts as hereinafter
specified and in the following manner: ,
“I first drew a check or checks on
the. account at the Federal Trust com
pany, which stood in my name as trus
tee. such check or cheeks being pay
able to the order of the Federal Trust*
company, and the Federal Trust com
pany then, in turn, would deliver to me
a treasurer's check of the Federal Trust
company, payable to bearer, which
treasurer’s checks 1, in turn, jlelivered
to Mr. Brisbane personally."
A letter to Brisbane from Feigenspan
defining the terms of the loan is, next
given. This previously had been pub
lished by Mr. Brisbane. It sets forth
that a number of brewers, including
Feigenspan, were ready to loan Brls- ‘
bane $500,000 for the purchase and es
tablishment of a newspaper, and that
at the end of five years so much was <
to be repaid as Brisbane determined
as the business of the paper warranted; I

Mr. L:i Line has staled that he de-
clined to accept the loan without inter
est.
Note Is Security
His only security, Feigenspan de
clared in his statement to the alien
property custodian, is the $300,000 note
of the Growing Circulation corporation.
At the close of the statement, George
Ehret. Jr, declares that he believes it
to be true.
The alien property custodian makes
no comment upon the documents, but
simply includes them in a letter to Sen
ator King, of Utah, the author of the
resolution which cancelled the charter
of the (rennan-American alliance, and
then passes to the two letters by Konta
to support his charge in his Harrisburg
speech that “the organized liquor traf
fic has been pro-German in its sympa
thies,” and that “these great interests
actually have been willing to finance
great newspapers for the purpose of
spreading German propaganda and sen
timents in this country.”
Konta:; letter to Tauscher includes
oome expressions of doubtful compli
.nentary nature as to Bernard Dem
ourg’s value as a German agent here,
out informs Tauscher that at Dern
burg's request he has canvassed the
prospects of buying a newspaper. He
asks that it possible the original be
recovered.
The letter to Dernburg. written March
31. 1915, the subject of “the purchase
and publication of a daily newspaper in
this country, in the interests of Ger
many and the German government" It
proceeds to discuss various New York
newspapers from the point of their suc
cess proceeding from that to make de
ductions on the likelihoou of their sale
Possible Material
The Herald, Telegram, Tribune and
World. Konta put out of the reckoning
at the outset, because they were part
of great fortunes, and the Times, which
he reckoned as very prosperous and not
for sale. That left in the morning field,
he wrote, the Sun. Press, Telegraph and
Commercial. The Sun, Konta wrote
Dernburg. had the drawback of not then
being a member of the Associated Press,
and be did not know if it could be
bought. The Press (now discontinued),
be* reported, has recently changed own
ership. “and the old owner was so de
lighted to get it off his hands that he
mi.de his managing editor a present »>f
slw,o(K>.” He expressed doubts if the
ne« owners would wish to sell.
The Telegraph. Konta reported, “could
be bought at any moment." but would
"have to be remodeled from beginning
to end." The Commercial, Konta de
scribed as a “mere skeleton” and then
turning to the evening newspaper field,
discussed the Post, the Mail and the
Globe.
The Post, Konta spoke of in the most
flattering terms, but made no comment
on the possibilities of its purchase.
The “price quoted for the Evening Mail
by its editor is $1,000,000.” he -eported.
(The sale of the Evening Mail al
ready has resulted in indictments charg
ing failure to make proper returns to
the alien property custodiaji).
Whether the Globe could be bought
Konta wrote Dernberg, was “a matter
for cautious inquiry.”
At this point Konta took up the re
lation of the prohibition agitation to
the question in hand, and wrote:
Prohibition Alao Figures
“Prohibition is ; seriously occupying
the minds of the brewers and distillers
of this country. It is not a question
of temperance, which they advocate, but
of the actual prohibition by-law of the
sale of beers, wines and liquors. A
paper that would not be hostile of
the personal liberty of the citizen to
drink in moderation what he pleased
couM count upon the powerful support
of the brewers and the distillers to
command illimitable capital, and what
is more, means of giving the paper in
question a circulation large enough to
attract advertisers.
“Add to this a discreet appeal to
every German society in the country
for support by its members, and we
could hastily count upon a national
daily circulation of 500,000 copies. This,
to be sure, would be a circulation
among Germans and German-Ameri
cans, whereas, what is wanted is na
tive American readers, but if this Ger
man circulation is built up discreetly
as I suggest, the man in the street
will only be impressed by members. A
large circulation widely advertised
would impress the native American and
lead him to take the paper. And. mean
while, a deficit would be changed into
a profit to be used fol further propa
ganda”
At no time in the Konta letters are
Mr. Brisbane or the Dmes mentioned
at all, but Mr. Palmer, it was said,
included the correspondence to prove
his charge that the brewing interests
were furthering German propaganda
and that the German alliance was really
a "German whiskey alliance.”
Mr. Palmer’s revelations of these
documents shot a« stir through official
Washington wdiich probably has not
been approached since the declaration
of war. Since his Harrisburg speecn
Saturday a storm has raged around the
ownership of Mr. Brisbane's Times. It
came to a climax yesterday with Bris
bane’s p*lbltat*ed announcement that he
bought the paper with money borrowed
from brewers, which was followed to-,
day by the alien property custodian’s
revelations soon after the passage of
the senate's resolution.
The senate judiciary committee will
meet Monday to consider the affair.

LONDON, Sept. 23.—British troops, in
their drive north through Palestine, al
ready have counted. 18,000 TuiKish pris
oners and have collected 120 guns, ac
cording to an official statement given out
Sunday by the British war office.
British cavalry units, operating be
tween the Jordan and the Mediterra
nean, have advanced some sixty miles
from their original positions, and have
occup.ed the Biblical renowned town
of Nazareth, and Afule and Baisan.
General Allenby’s troops have sur
rounded part of the Ottoman army and
are collecting the disorganized masses
of men apd transport, arriving from
the south The text of the statement
follows:
"By 9 o'clock on Sunday night, on
our left wing, the. infantry about Bira
fur had reached the line Beitdejan-Sa
maria-Birafur. shepherding the enemy on
the west of the Jerusalem-Nabuhis road
into the arms of our cavalry operating
southwards from Jenin and Beisan.
"Other enemy columns vainly attempt
ed to escape into the Jordan valley in
the direction of Jisr-Ed-Dameer, which
still is held by us. These columns suf
fered severely from our aircraft, which
constantly harassed them with bombs
and machine gunfire from low alti
tudes.
“In the vicinity of Lake Tiberius our
cavalry detachments hold Nazareth and
the rail and road passages over the
Jordan at Jisr-Ed-Dameer.
"Already 18.000 prisoners have been
captured and 120 guns collected.”
Enemy Resistance Has Collapsed
An earlier British statement in re
gard to operations in Palestine says:
“Palestine—By 8 p. m„ on September
20. the enemy resistance had collapsed
everywhere save on the Turkish left
in the Jordan valley.
“Our left wing, having swung around
to the east, had reached the line of
Bidieh, Kaka and Messudieh Junction,
and was astride the rail and roads con
verging at Nabulus.
“Our right wing, advancing through
difficult country against considerable
resistance, has reached the line of Kahn
Jibeit, one and a quarter miles north
east of El Mugheir, and EsSawieh and
was forcing north astride the Jerusa
lem-Nabulus road.
“On the north our cavalry, travers
ing the field of Armageddon, had occu
pied Nazareth, Afule and Besian and
were collecting the disorganized masses
of enemy troops and transport as they
arrived from the south. All avenues
of escape open to the enemy, except the
fords across the Jordan between Bei
san and Jici-Ed-Dameer, were thus
closed.
“East of the Jordan. Arab forces of
the king of Hedjaz had ejected numer
ous demolitions on the railways radiat
ing from Deraa. Severel important
bridges, including one in the Purmak
have been destroyed.
“Several days must elapse before ac
curate figures of captured can be given
out. Already wore than 8,000 prisoners.
100 guns,* large quantities of both horse
and mechanical transports, four air
planes. many locomotives and much
rolling stock have been counted.
“Very- severe losses have been in
flicted on the masses of Turkish troops
retreating over the difficult roads by
our air services.
“A German airplane, later ascertain
ed to have been carrying mails, landed
in the midst of our troops at Afule.
The pilot, who believed the place still
to be in Turkish hands, destroyed the
machine and Its contents before he

Why I Believe '
in Nuxated Iron

“The crest strain of the present time* should
make the public peneraily realise the necessity
of fortifying the blood and nerve cells by
mean* of a strengthening upbuilding tonic. If
people would only reelize that iron is just as
indKpensable to the blood as i*> air to the
lungs and be just as particular about keeping
up a sufficient supply at all times there woui*..
in my opinion, be far less disease resulting from
anaemic, weakened conditions. For years it
was a problem with physicians how to admin
ister iron in a form that could be taken np by •
the system and tacrease the red blood corpu»-
'without upsetting the stomach, blackening
the teeth or producing other disorders almost
as serious as the lack of iron itself. But the
introduction of Nutated Iron has done awgv
wlth all the objectionable features of the old
mineral salts of iron and gives to every care
ful. thinking physician a tried and valuable
prescription which hg can recommend nearly
I every day with benetit to his weakened and
’ rund-down patients.
“Nuxated Iron, by enriching the blood and
creating new blood cells. strengthens the
nerves, rebuilds the weakened tissues and helps
to instill renewed energy into the whole sys
tem whether the >wtients be young or old. In
my opinion. Nuxated Iron is the most valuable
conic, strength and blood-builder any physician
j can prescribe.”
If you are not stronger well you owe it to
j yourself to make the following test: Sec how
long you can work or how far yon can walk
without becoming tired. Next take two fire k
grain tablets of ordinary Nuxated Iron three ’
times per day after meals for two weeks.
