Tri-Weekly Market Reports
LOTTON
NEW YORK, Oct. 23.—The cotton
market opened at a decline of 5 to
15 points today, the more active
months showing net losses of 15 to
18 points in the first few minutes
under southern and local selling en
couraged by a private crop report
estimating the condition 55.7 and the
indicated yield 12,777.000 bales com
pared with an end-September indi
cation of 12,599,000. There was some
doubt as to whether the frosts re
ported in the northern half of the
belt had been severe enough to do
much damage except in a few points,
but after selling off to 22.80, De
cember rallied to 22.95 on trade buy
ing and covering. The forecast for
frost In parts of the eastern belt
again tonight probably accounted for
part of the buying.
The rally from the early low lev
el carried December up to 22.98 or
back to yesterday’s closing quota
tions, but trading became quiet at
the advance and late forenoon fluc
tuations were narrow. Trices at
midday ruled around 22.93 for De
cember with the general market
about 5 to 6 points net lower.
. No fresh feature developed during
the early afternoon, and traders
seemed to be waiting either for the
final October notices tomorrow or
the government report on Saturday.
Most of the little business reported
was in the shape of switches be
tween months and prices held about
steady, December selling around
22.90 at 2 o’clock, when the general
market was 8 to 12 points net lower,

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 23.—The
eotton market opened steady owing
to easy cables and despite decidedly
a cold weather map. First trades
showed losses of 6 to 9 points and
prices eased off a few points addi
tional right after the call with De
cember at 22.76 and January 22.80
nr 12 points below the previous
close. The market then rallied on
reports of rather cold weather in
the interior than the map indicated
with ice in South Carolina. Deeem
l)®r triided up to 22.88 and January
22.90 or up to the levels of yester
day’s close. The frost line by map
extended well into the southern por
tions of the belt.
The market has been a very nar
row affair all morning, prices fluc
tuating within the earl\Zrange, the
spread being only 10 to 12 points.
The undertone has been bullish ow
ing to the low temperatures, heavy
to killing frosts having occurred in
many portions of the belt. One sta
tion in Louisiana showed as low as
,”!) degrees. The market is prevent
ed from advancing owing to fears of
what the government rspert may
• how on Saturday. Near noon, De
cember was trading at 22.82 and
January at 22.85, or 6 to 7 paints
below yesterday's close. There was
little disposition to trade.
The market continued dull and
largely featureless during the after
soon. Prices eased off slightly at
• >ne time, making new lows 1 to 2
joints under the lowest of the. morn
ing. It was a typical. pro-bureau
mfcrket with no disposition to trade
i>n either side of the account. A
i.ulge in the current month was due
:o attempts of some belated October
’.horts to cover. Exports for the day
totalled 18,632 bales.

THE ATLANTA TRI-WEEKLY JOURNAL
GRAIN
CHICAGO (Thursday) Oct. 23.
! Rains in Argentina upset the caleu
| lations of wheat longs and were re
r sponsible for the weakness in the
i market today. Corn also had a
downward trend largely because of
; the extreme weakness in wheat and
j oats followed the leaders. Provi
sions had a weak tone in sympathy
i with grain.
I There was a wild rush on the part
! of local holders of wheat to unload
as soon as the opening bell sounded
• today. Most of the locals went
i home with long wheat on the be
| lief that Liverpool would come back
strong this morning. To the con
trary, that market was off 2 1-4
to 2 314 because of the rains in
North Argentina. These rains were
reported as insufficient but afford
ing temporary relief.
There was some buying of May
for investment account on the break
but the volume of selling was too
great to be readily digested. Decem
ber was tinder pressure from tired
Jongs. Seaboard exporters reported
no demand for nearby shipments
from abroad and also a let-up in the
demand for deferred clearance.
However, local shippers found ex
porters moreanxious to buy wheat
and a cargo of 190,000 bushels was
sold out of here at 2 cejits over De
cember, c. i. f. Buffalo, or a cent
better than was paid yesterday. Mill
ing demand for wheat was quiet.
Wheat closed near the low point,
13-8 cto 2 l-2c lower. December
$1.44 3-4 to $1.44 5-8; May $1.49 1-8
to $1.49; July $1.31 3-4 to $1.31 7-8.
General selling and lower prices
featured the opening in corn. This
selling was prompted largely by the
break in wheat. Some of the ag
gressive local traders supported the
market on the break. There were
reports of fresh export inquiries,
but no business was reported. Do
mestic shipping demand .was also a
trifle betetr. Country offerings to
arrive were light.
Corn closed 1 l-4c to 2 1-Sc lower.
December $1.05 3-8 to 1-2; May
SI.OB 1-4 to SJ.OB; July SI.OB 5-8 to
SI.OB 3-4.
Oats were under pressure from
commission and hedgers. Buying on
resting orders checked the decline.
Oats were 1-4 to 7-8 c lower. De
cember 51 5-8 c to 51 l-2c; May 56
to 55 7-8 c; July 53 3-4 c.
Weakness in grain caused selling
of provisions and lower prices were
recorded. Some buying of October
bellies was noted and prices for this
product were higher.
Lard closed 15 to 25 cents lower;
ribs 25c higher, and bellies 23 l-2c
higher to 12 l-2c lower.
Local cash sales were 295,000
bushels of wheat, all to exporters,
including 105,000 bushels now at
an eastern port; 147,000 bushels of
corn, including 100,000 bushels to
exporters, and 64,000 bushels of
oats.
The seaboard reported 2,000,000
bushels of wheat worked for export.
Vessel room was chartered for 190,-
000 bushels of wheat to Buffalo and
165,000 bushels to Georgian Bay.

MILI.S OF GEOBGII
EXPB SCHEDULES
OMBOIGHT OUTLOOK
RY J. C. ROYLE
(Special Leased Wire to The journal—Copy
» right, 1924.)
NEW YORK. Oct. 22.—The cot
ton goods trade was sharply divided
todav in its reactions to the an
nouncement that the ’ Amoskeag
mills, one of the largest cotton
manufacturing plants in the world,
had decided to pass its quarterly
dividend. The statements from, New
England which accompanied the an
nouncement laid stress upon the se
verity of the textile depression. In
other sections some close students ot
the situation profess to see various
other considerations in the move as
well.
According to lhe goods trade here,
tbe response to the opening of the
Amoskeag spring ginghams at prices
practically equivalent to those of
last year, has not been entirely satis
factory. Buyers undoubtedly ex
pected a marked reduction of prices,
and southern mills which have an
nounced their spring gingham prices
have made these reductions in many
instances.
In the south, the I.a Grange, Ga.,
cotton mills started this week on a
twenty-four-hour schedule. Griffin,
Ga.. interests have formed a com
pany to erect a new $750,000 mill,
and extended activities are reported
from other southern textile plants.
Hundreds of mill executives, gath
ered at the Greenville. S. C., textile
exposition, report a belter outlook
in the industry.
Planned Wage Cut
Tt is generally known that the
Amoskeag company has paid divi
dends in late years from surplus
rather than earnings. This, it is
stated, is due partly to southern mill
competition, partly to high wages
paid operatives, and partly to a gen
eral textile depression. The company
entered negotiations a month ago
with its employes for a. 20 per
cent wage reduction, with assurance
of a five-day week. The operatives
agreed to a 10 per cent cut but the
company evidently deeming that sav
ing inadequate, left wages as they
were.
Labor men see in the passing of
the dividend another step in the ef
fort to force a. reduction of wages
in New England.
For example, the Arctic and Royal
mills ot the B. B. & R. Knight com
pany in Rhode Island, have resumed
on a full-time basis after a long
shut down with wages 12 1-2 per
cent under the former scale. The
Thorndyke mills, of Massachusetts,
also have resumed cn a six-day sched
ule, having deferred an eleven per
cent wage reduction until other mills
take similar action. They had been
on a three-day basis.
It is remembered, in connection
with the passing of the Amoskeag
dividend, that the American Woolen,
company took similar action about
a month ago. Irrespective of the
objects which dictated the move, the
fact remains that since that time,
the goods of the leading woolen In
terests have moved with increasing
rapidity, prices have been advanced
seven times on men’s spring goods
and six times on worsteds and
worsted and wool combination fab
rics. A number of lines have been
sold up and withdrawn for mthe mar
ket. Whether the Amoskeag action
will offer stimulus to gingham sales
remains to be seen.
Competitive Basis Seen
Many textile men, however, de
clare the call for ginghams at pres
ent is not sufficient to occupy all
gingham mills and prices must he
placed on a competitive basis in con
sequence.
One of the chief blows to the Amos
keag earnings undoubtedly came
when the Tutankhamen vogue for
printed silks and cotton supplanted
ginghams in many markets. Reports
from many jobbing centers this fall
state that ginghams still are in re
latively poor demand.
Although Paterson silk manufac
turers are still troubled by the strike
which has been under Way for some
time, producers cf silk goods in gen
eral report an excellent volume of
business. Raw silk dealings in the
Oriental primary markets have been
heavy, as have the shipments of raw
silk to this country. In the new
spring printed silks, th© Oriental,
Persian and Egyptian motifs have
given place in some lines to the
influence of modern architecture and
geometrical patterns are popular.
Artificial silk manufacturers are
straining plant capacity in some cen
ters to supply the call for their prod
uct.
White House Silent
On Revived Rumor of
Wallace Resignation
WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.—N0 for
mal comment was available at the
White House today on the recurring
repo.rt that Secretary Wallace, of
the agriculture department, is plan
ning to retire from the cabinet in
the near future.
Mr, Wallace himself is in a hos
pital here recovering from an oper
ation. He has been in bad health
for some time, and some of his
friends have urged that he give up
his official duties. Should he decide
to do so. he may step out before
the opening of the next session of
congress early in December.

Above, Viola Olerich. at 2, was called the “cleverest child in the

now Mrs. John Storms, Jr., of Sioux City, la., and her little daugh
ter, Virginia, whom she is rearing just an ordinary little girl.
Virginia Plays With Dolls
at 2, Age Her Mother As
tounded Science
SlOl’X CITY, la., Oct. :She was
a child prodigy herself—
But she doesn’t want her own child
to be one. •
Before she was 2, Viola Olerich
was being proclaimed throughout
the west “the cleverest baby on
earth.”
That was 25 years ago.
She could read fluently, talk in
polysyllables, nariie all the bones in
the human body, identify hundreds
of famous men, solve difficult geo
metric problems, talk intelligently
about the planets and do dozens o£
things that would stump the average
high school pupil.
At 3 she was taking dictation on
the typewriter and turning out per
fect copy. At 4 she was out-spelling
a group of picked university stu
dents.
Under the tutelage of her foster
father, Professor Henry Olerich, she
made remarkable progress in her
studies, gaining an unusualjj' broad
general education.
Then she dropped out of the lime
light.
Three years ago news of her mar
riage to a young man employed in
the offices of an Omaha packing
company leaked out.
Then the world again lost sight
of Its “cleverest baby.”
But now she has been rediscover
ed. She is living here. Has been
for a year.
And she has a little daughter of
her own—Virginia.
Virginia is just 2—the age at
which her mother was astounding
scientists, educators and medical
men.
But Virginia is not a child prodigy.
She’s playing with dolls, a. big rub
ber ball and still talking baby talk.
And hei- mother is glad.
“I don’t want her to be a child
prodigy,” she says. “I want her to
be like other children.
“If the body is strong and healthy
now, learning will come easily when
school age is reached.
“I’m exerting no effort to make
her a prodigy. Os course, I shall help
her all I can throughout her school
career. But now I want her to be
just like other little girls.
“After all, taking care of a child’s
physical needs, together with the or
dinary amount of discipline, seems
to me about the most important
duty of a mother during the first
few years of her child’s life.
“And that’s what I am trying to
do.”

I SAN BERNARDINO, Cal., Oct. 22.
iT. C. Kelty, missing since Sunday,
was found dead at the foot of a
precipice off the -state highway in
(the San Bernardino mountains to
iday. His wife was alive, but injured,
and Meredith Waterbury, aged five,
■ also was alive, ke’pt from death by
I thirst an<l starvation by blood from
■ Mrs. Kelty’s arm, which she had
■ gashed to save the child.
| The missing automobile for which
1 posses have been searching since
Sunday night, was found crushed
at the foot of a 900-foot drop off
the highway. Kelty, who was driv
ing. apparently had been crushed to
death.
Mrs. Kelty and the child, a daugh

Hollywood, were found about 200
feet further down in the chasm,
i where they had been thrown. Both
were injured, but it was announced
by physicians they probably would

Mrs. Kelty, partly delirious, told
how she had opened a vein in her
arm and had fed the blood to the
girl to keep her alive throughout
the chill mountain nights.
Kilty’s son was attracted to the
spot where he found his father’s
body by the bark of his father's
dog. The dog had been a compan
ion of the elder Kelty.

i‘T WE HOUSE
WASHINGTON. Oct, 2.—(By lhe
Associated Press.) —Declaring that
various charges he has made against.
President Coolidge’s administration
during Ute campaign have gone un
answered. Senator Wheeler, the in
dependent vice presidential candi
date, today challenged lhe president
personally to reply.
His specific questions were:
“Why, Mr. Coolidge, was it neces
sary for congress to act before you
dismissed lhe secretary of the navy,
who had allowed the navy’s oil re
serves to he turned over to the secre
tary of the interior, knowing this
secretary of the interior was frank
ly in favor of turning over all Die
nation's natural resources to private
exploiters?
“Why, Mr. Coolidge, did you wait
for congress to act before you start
ed your half-hearted proceedings
against the secretary of the interior
who had accepted a bribe of SIOO,OOO
from certain oil interests and had
given away the navy's oil reserves
in return for that bribe and for con
tributions to the Republican cam
paign fund?
“Why, Mr. Coolidge, did you wait
for congress to expose the vile de
tails ot corruption in the depart
ment of justice before you consent
ed to remove Attorney General
Daugherty from office, when you, as
well as all Washington, knew his
record?
“Why, Mr. Coolidge, do you still
retain in the department of justice
those men who worked hand in hand
with Mr- Daugherty in covering
crime and protecting criminals.’?
“Why, Air. Coolidge, when you
knew that agents of your govern
ment were trailing members of con
gress ami shadowing their homes, did
you not have those men discharged
from the public service?
“Why, Mr. Coolidge, did you pro
tests against the investigations car
ried on by congress? Why, especial
ly, did you interfere to prevent in
vestigation of the treasury depart
ment?”
