Washington.—Declaring the Uniteo
States is on the verge of the worst
cotton famine in history, Senator Hef
lin (Democrat of Alabama) asked the
senate tfie other day to make a thor
ough investigation of the New York
cotton exchange, the Chicago board
of trade and the New Orleans cot
ton exchange for aleged price fix
ing and control through future sales.
Heflin said the present cotton crop
would be exsausted by July 1, and
there would be no more planting be
cause cotton growers are “financially
ruined.”
A resolution introduced by Heflin
called for ihe appointment of a senate
committee to invesitgate the relations ,
of transactions for future delivery’ on
the cotton exchanges .and boards of
trade in the United States to prices
of cotton and grain. The committee
would hold Itbarings In New York,!
New Orleans, Chicago and Washing-,
ton.
Heflin charged the number of bales
of cotton involved In transactions on
the codon exchanges for future de
livery “exceeds by ten to fifteen
times all the cotton raised in the
United States for the fame ’ period.”
Heflji said the cotton exchange
and the Chicago board of trade “in

T HAT Story of a military Convention
signed by representatives of the
Russian soviet army and the Herman
generaJ stnfT in Berlin April 3. first
,, fipruha by the-London Times and vig
orously denied, will not down. Now
the Burls Journal I/KH^ir prints what
purports to be the text of the pact.
In it the Germans agree to furnish
tlie Red army with arms and material
for ISO regiments of Infantry and
heavy field artillery for 20 infantry
divisions; to train GO Russian instruct
ors in the latest developments of chem
ical warfare and to- send technical ex
perts to Russia to speed up'the muni :
tlon plants and open new ones. The
German general staff pledges to reor-
ganize the Russian Baltic and Black
seat fleets and to .supply at. the earli
est possible date f»<K) new’ airplanes
together with a supply of spare parts,
and 150 field wireless outfits.
The Russian army staff guarantees
the establishment in Russia of three
German plants, one for the manufac
ture of airplanes, one for poison gas
and one for arms, on condition that
the Russian army can use the output
when needed. German specialists would
be admitted to “the new arms factory
. Jn Afghanistan.” The two staffs, Jt
is agreed, will.prepare a Joint ptnn of
operations to give Russia access to
tb« Upllic sea. _
