FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1921. The cooperative marketing association for cotton growers was organized here Wednesday. The plans of the organization as outlined in yesterday's Times are, it seems to us, wise and safe. Already many sections that produce cotton have gone into the movement. WOODROW WILSON. James Smith, of St. Louis, who was one of Mr. Wilson's most efficient managers in his last campaign for President, was in Washington on Armistice Day and had a long visit with his candidate, and this story is told in the New York World about Mr. Smith's impressions of the true head of the Democratic party: "I found, so far as mental attitude is concerned, almost the same man that I last talked with in the White House before he was taken ill. He is keenly interested in everything that is going on, and. if he ever lost, he hxig regained the sense of humor that made him a delightful confere while president." Mr. Smith declared that so long as the former President remains seated, no one, however close to him, could .11 there was the slightest physical lpairment. "He has the same keen tyes, the same gestures, the same ? aense *of humor that he had before he was taken ill." Mr. Smith con nued, "and he has tost none of the en analytic sense that has always w.abled him to instantly grasp the \ : jrport and find the answer to any oject that might be presented." The World adds: Mr. Wilson seems to have in no ' ay suffered from the activity of participating in the funeral procession of the Unknown Soldier, Friday, or the tremendous demonstration staged at .his home that aiternoon by more than 20,000 persons. To enter the procession. Mr. Wilson arose at 7 o'clock and with Mrs. Wilson rode in an open carriage from his home to the Capitol, down Pennsylvania Avenue to the White House and then back home. The afternoon demonstration in his honor lasted nearly three hours, and most of that time ne was on his feet, waving his hat and his hands, nodding to the throng and shaking hands with those near the door. The day was cold and for many minutes he stood bareheaded. He also was under an intense emotional strain, which finally gave way to tears, from the tribute paid by his admirers. He was said to have been very tired after the demonstration was over. If he were only strong enough, the way to the succession in the govIernment at Washington would beclear. The most conspicuous figure in the procession that followed the "Unknown Dead" to Aldington, lie will remain the most conspicuous figure in all the history of the world of the present period because of the service he gave when civilization was the stake at hazard.?Spartanburg Journal.

Russian Tarde For Next Year Riga, Nov. 17.?Russian trade, it is expected, will materially benefit next year by the various improvements that have been projected. As announced at Riga, the include the deepening of Windnu harbor and th widening of the gauge of some railway lines to permit through shipment from Baltic ports to Moscow. A group of local financiers is arranging to enlarge the docking, storage and manufacturing facilities at I.ibau where a free port will he ere. a ted. Consideration is being g'ven to a plan '.vhieh will permit an Eiglvh syndicate to rebuild, and enlarge railway equipment shops at Dvinslc, Riga and elsewhere. Attempts to interest American cap ital in various projects to improve Russian trade via Latvia have thus far failed. According to some American financiers who have visited the country, this is principally due to lack of recognition of Latvia by the United States government Many Italian, German and English houses are opening branches in Riga and Reval but such evidence of American enterprise are few. One Chicago .meat-packing plant recently opened a branch, this constituting the only American addition to the rapidly prow in fj colony of traders. Extremely pessimistic views of the possibility of doinpr any business with Ru?.sia, recently reached Riffa, eman atinnr. it i understood, from 'he British trade delegation to Moscow. Nevertheless, British, Italian and Ger- 1 man traders are hoping for a steady 1 improvement in their business w th ' Russia next year, as new economic rrct Into full swing.

Figures of Norway's imports for 1919, recently made public, show thatt about one-third of the Norwegian im*' ports were from the United States. n American exporters gained a hold in Norwegian markets at a time when ' Norway's chief source of supply was ^ closed. Requirements which could not be covered in the regular market3 nearer home, as was the custom prior to the war, had to be taken from America, or not at all. n It is now being pointed out, howe ever, by Norwegian trade experts, that in order that the United States e may maintain this position in Norwegian trade, it is essential thtat c American manufacturers stipulate e virtually the same terms of credit as e other countries. d The dollar now costs more than <1 twice as many kroner as it did prior r. to 1914. This high dollar rate makes imported ^American goods so expen0 sive that similar goods from other 1. sources, home.made or imported from ie Germany, can be sold cheaper and i- which eventually will crowd Ameri>r can articles off the market. Is Merchants suggest that if the trade is relations between Norway and the 1- United States are to be maintained rs at anything like their present level id it will be necessary for the American i3 Vlealers to grant long terms credit and r- for the Americans to buy more goods -n of Norwegian origin, i- ? 5e Citation to Kindred >y is and Creditors sr iy State of South Carolina, et County of Union.

Hundreds of Southern or Szechaunese prisoners have been decapitated by the Northern defenders of Ichang, according to reports brought to Peking by foreigners who have been visiting the Ichang front. The troops who are doing the decapitating are not the soldiers of Wu Pei-fu, but the original garrison of Ichang which has looted the city three times during the last four months. The bodies of their victims are invariably stripped of their clothing and then thrown into the Yangtze together with their heads. These atrocities were brought to General Wu Pei-fu's attention on his arrival at Ichang owing to the fact that some of the original garrison one day mistook a Chinese collector for the Standard Oil Company for a Southern soldier and cut off his head in the usual manner. They did not find out their mistake until they went through their victim's clothing in search of lood and found instead documents proving his identity. In order to smooth matters over they at once fished the head and the body of the deceased out of the river, sewed them together again and bought the best coffin that they could afford. Corpse and coffin were then carried to the home of the deceased, where profuse apologies were offered bo his family for the incident. The Standard Oil Company, however, is not satisfied with t'^se apologies and has demanded that a sola- . :ium be paid the wife and children of h^ murdered man.
