But that’s | changed now. The price is rising. Nearly 80,000 bales have been sold to the Russian Soviet government. We loan- ed the Russians the money with which to buy it. Of course this cotton had long since left the hands of the cotton farmers. was in the hands of the cotton brokers, | who, having unloaded part of their stock, can purchase sodn the new crop which is now growing under Dixie’s sun. The export to Russia is not the only ! stimulus to price. The wheels of domes- tic cotton mills are turning once more. They must supply the demands of millions of Americans for new clothing to replenish their wardrobes which have been depleted steadily for three years. At a New England thread mill last week scores of pale-faced women in cheap dresses were waiting in line to secure the five hundred jobs which had been reopen- ed. Along the highway great truckloads of cotton bales moved toward the thread factory. Higher prices for the staple will put new light of hope in ‘the eyes of Southern cotton growers and their families. Higher prices for their cloths will enable the mills of New England to employ more people at better wages, thereby putting new color in- to the cheeks of the factory workers and their children. Raising the price level is truly a boon to miilions, ELECTRICITY CAN BUILD BUSINESS One exhibit at the Chicago World’s Fair is particularly interesting to mer- chants, whether their stores are large or small. That is the one showing the use of electricity in merchandising, which is part of the power industry’s , “electricity at work”’ series, ‘ . There is a white.carpeted dress shop with Farisian imports being modeled by tiny mannequins upon a revolving stage, with curtains that open and close auto- matically, There is a grocery store in which light indexes the foods kept on var- ious shelves. There is a beauty shop, a bakery and a restaurant, each’ showing how lighting effects may be used to’ make a striking and tempting display. All are the products of months of work, by mas- ter craftsmen, architects, eleetrical and mechanical engineers, in consultation with experts in various arts and industries. The average store, like the average home, has as yet taken little advantage of the possibilities of modern lighting. It is a pretty safe bet that the» store~which does, will be the one that sees its volume of business and its profits rise. All other things being equal, the buyer will go to the store which displays its merchandise most uniquely and catches his.eye most defin- itely. ° As a result, the electricity in mer- chandising exhibit might, very well be en- titled ela sons as a business builder.” SHAFT 70 AMUNDSEN San ieanciece: ‘has paid tribute to a great explorer by erecting a tall granite shaft in Golden Gate park in memory of } Roald Amundsen, who discovered the South Pole in 1911. Amundsen was a native of Norway, where he was born in 1872, and became a sailor at 21. In addition to his discovery | of the South Pole, he also’made two trips | to the North Pole, one in an airplane and the other in a dirigible; he:discovered the | north magnetic pole; was the first to make the northwest passage from Europe to Alaska, and was the third navigator to make the northeast passage from the At- lantic to the Pacific. In 1928, after Amundsen had = an- nounced his retirement from active ex- ploration, Nobile’s expedition to the Arctic in a dirigible met with disaster, Amundsen set out by air to rescue Nobile, but perished in the attempt, and was never heard from again. The San Francisco monument will serve to remind coming generations of one of the most intrepid adventurers the world has ever seen, whose contributions to selence were among the most notable that ave been derived from polar exploration. |: |: THE KEY WEST CITIZEN POSS ewoeocccecveveccecverscesccoeussoreseseeusose Daily Cross-word Puzzle Socccccsevecvccosocvecescecnccccs sceosceenreesooos ACROSS Solution of Yesterday’s Puzzle 1.
