WASHINGTON, September P-More j cotton was ginned this year prior to! "entember t_ than in any previous; y#ar in the history o? American cotton j growing. The census bureau announced roday in its first report of the season ! ih-a: !.GS?.«Sf) bales had been ginned. The largest quantity heretofore ginned to September 1 was Se0,«88 bales | in IP’S, when 7.5 per cent, of the crop was ginned to that date Glnntngs re- i ported today comprise 9.3 per cent, of j th- U. 137,000 bale crop forecast from August 3.7 conditions by the department |

of agriculture.

The heavy ginning# this year are ascribed to hot and drv weather in , the western part of the cotton belt. «s-! pevially in Texas and Oklahoma Much cotton opened prematurely and the picking was done early. There also was a considerable increase in the acreage planted m southern Texas and the crop

the-e matured early.

t limit.gs ast year prior to September 1 amounted 10 6H,7$7 bales, including 13.7Hi round bales and 2.S38 bales of Sea Island The latest official forecast of this year's crop based on August 25 conditions was 11.137.000 equivalent 500-

potind bales.

FORD TO BECOME ACTIVE. Will Do All He Can to Gain Election to Senate—Why Son Is Not in Army. DETROIT, September 9.-Henry Ford, in an interview Saturday, announced that he would become an active Instead of passive candidate for election to tbe I’nlted States senate from Michigan. He said he would do whatever he could within the strict letter and spirit of the law to win the contest It must be understood, Mr Ford added, that he accepted the Democratic nomination In the exact spirit in which it was tendered bv the leading Democrats of the state when they offered to form a nonpartisan combination with the Repub-

Stcans-

•T regard this as no time for the promotion of partisan politics,” he said. Mr, Ford also answered criticisms that his son, Eds*!, had received deferred classification in the draft. “Full responsibility for his absence from the firing line rests with me.” Mr. Ford said. "When the duly authorised authority says his services are more needed in the army than here tn these industries he will be found at the front fighting,'' ^ BACK FROM EUROPE. Members of House Committee Enthusiastic Over Work of Navy. WASHINGTON. September 9—Representative Padgett, of Tennessee, chairman. and seven other members of the house naval affairs committee, returned today from Europe, enthusiastic over the work of fhe American navy In the war zone With Mr. Padgett were Rep-

j Tn compliance with the request of the | board of public safety, the board of public works today ordered the street cars 1 off East Market street between North Pennsylvania and North Delaware (streets, and off Kentucky avenue in ti - 1 first block, so that the center of the streets named may be used for tinparking of automobiles. Ken tuck-. I avenue cat tracks, however, will be j used, as in the past, early in the morning and late In the afternoon and even- ! ins for cars running to Mars Hill. The board took under advisement the j safety board's request for permission to use the center of the first block of Viri g.nia. Massachusetts and Indiana avc- | hues for the parking of cars. Schuyler 1 A. Haas, president of the board, satd ! he favored such action being taken, hut that St would require a rerouting of the cars in the downtown district. He said such an arrangement would be better if there were car tracks In New York street between Indiana and Massachu-

setts avenues.

Against One Proposal. Mr. Haas was against taking tbe cars off the first block of South Meridian street, saying he did not see how that could be done without disrupting the whole street car traffic downtown The new parking regulations of the safety board became effective today and automobilists found much more space downtown for parking their cars with the front wheels touching the curb.

$5,500,000 Monongaheld Valley Traction Co. General Mortgage 7% Fire-Year Gold Bonds Dated July 1, 191A Du* July 1, 1923

The Company agrees to pay the interest without deduction for any normal Federal income tax in an amount not in excess of A% a T" a hf. investment position of these bonds is indicated by the following information contained in a letter from Mr. James O. Watson, President of the Company: The Company operates without competition a system of urban and interurban electric railways and does the entire electric and gas business in a number of cities and towns in West Virginia and Ohio. The Company also owns valuable coal mining properties. The population served is estimated at about 225,000. These bonds will be secured, in tbe opinion of counsel, by a mortgage on the entire property of the Company owned in fee, subject to underlying liens. They will be further secured by the pledge of $5,500,000 of the Company’s First (& Refunding) Mortgage Bonds and of more than 95% of the stock of a subsidiary corporation. The mortgage will provide for a Sinking Fund, and in addition will contain a strong maintenance and depreciation covenant. Tbe franchise situation is very satisfactory. The large equity bi the property above tbe bonded debt is represented by $3,431,730 of 6% cumulative preferred stock and $&,28&,861 of common stock, upon which dividends are being paid at tbe rite of 5% per annum. The combined earnings of the properties for the year ended May 31, 1918, as certified by independent accountants, were as follows: Grog* Earnings S3.S99.835.11 Operating Expense*, Maintenance *mI Tax*# (exeluakog Depreciation and Depletion) 2,134,450.78

Net earning# 31,565,384.33 Annual inter eat ou funded debt, including present issue .... 842,500.00

Balance

3722,884.33

Net earnings are more than 1.85 times bond interest requirements. These earnings reflect practically no benefit from tbe expenditia’es being financed by this issue of bonds, which should result in largely increased net earnings.
