October 23.—Senator Pat Harrison, Demoerat, Mississippi, speuking list night beiore the annual convention of the Audit Bureau of Circulation. commended the program of the 1ecent Memphi iference of cotton interests to-cope with the sur- plus crop emergency and expressed the hope that the Federal Govern- ment would immediately provide credit facilities for the execution of the plan.

By the Associated Press. PHILADBELPHIA, October 23.—The insistence of the United States on forelgn governments paying their war debts was commended yesterday at the final session of the annual conven- tlon ,of the National Assoclation of Mutual Savings Banks. ‘The association in resolutions looked with apprehension of the present practice and expansion of buying on installment, and favored commercial banks segregating savings deposits. Insistence of the United States on the principle of the integrity and sanctity of national financial obli- gations was not inconsistent with such modification of terms as a creditor nation may be willing to concede, and as has been evidenced by the inter. national debt agreements, already con- cluded, the resolutions declared. The resolutions called for restriction of public expenditures to public necessities and urged Federal, State and municipal governments to set an example to individuals of rigid economy to repair the waste occasion- ed by the World War. ‘The association, in its resolutions, CAIROHOTEL Que at Sixteenth Street L.
