WASHINGTON, Sept. 1—(UP)
The movement of a bountiful win-
ter wheat crop from the South-
west to Middle West markets has
demonstrated the method used by
competing railroads to work as a
unified syste mto solve a trans-
portation problem, according to
the Association of American Rail-
roads.
The co-operation was achieved
through the car service division of
the association, which was charg-
ed with supplying a sufficient
number of cars to move the grain
without costly delay.
"I think the railroads did the

NURSES CONFESS ALL ABOUT

White nurses moved quietly in
tlfe corridors, stretchers with hum-

and a new picture "Between Two
Women,” was launched at Metro-
Goldwyn - Mayer with Franchot
Tone, Maureen O’Sullivan and Vir-
ginia Bruce heading an important
cast. The film begins a two day
showing at the Simon Theatre
Thursday. J
"Between Two Women" is a grip-
ping drama within the walls of a
great medical institution amid the
suffering of the daily victims of
crimes, traffic and accidents.
Franchot Tone deviates from his
customary roles to play an indus-
trious young physician devoted to
his work and who marries a worn
an who does not love him.
Virginia Bruce appears as the
self-willed heiress who lures Tone
Into marriage and Maureen O’Sul-
livan plays a young nurse, also
married but in love with Tone.
George Seitz directed the pic-

Life at the Pole
Through Mazuruk, the North
Pole party reported recently:
"The drift of our icefloe for the
past 10 days was rather peculiar.
We made a loop and found our-
selyes in the same place where we
were weeks ago. The open water
space running parallel to our ice-
floe has been al Ithe time free from
ice. It has been accompanying us
since our landing. In certain plac-|
es its width exceeds IM feet. Pa-
panin and Shirshov made a long
trip on it ina rubber canoe
photographed picturesque
tee shores.
"We noted there times with
great satisfaction the appearance
of a large seal. As we anticipated,
life in the high northern latitudes,
contrary to all theories, proved
quite varied. Quite recently we
noted the beginning of biological
spring at great ocean depths.
"Down 9,000 feet a small medu-

WASHINGTON, Sbpt. l-(UP)
-Exports of farm products from
this year’s crops probably will
show a very "marked increase"
i over recent years, according to ec-
onomists of the Department of Ag-
riculture. «
"In recent months there has been
an increasing number of indica-
tions that the world trade situa-
tion has greatly improved," the
bureau of agricultural economics
said.
This improvement, however, has
not yet been reflected in corre-,
sponding improvement in export
outlets for American farm pro-
duct*. the bureau said. Exports of
farm products declined steadily
during the first six months of this

Tariff Leveling Sought
Many countries, the bureau said
are seeking a leveling of tariff
barriers, abandonment of subsidies
and more open markets for most
of the major crops. Lowering of
wheat import duties in Germany,

cited as examples.

-)tton Seed Worth
More If Meal And
Hulls Are Fed
DALLAS. Sept 1—“You would
Mt plant a loaf of bread to raise
a Whsst crop, because for planting,
yva need seed.
.. . For food, on the
Acient than a grain of wheat.”
While this may sound absurd, it
la an excellent example of the im-
portance of using products in their
most economical and effiicent form
What is true of human food is true
also, of livestock feed, even though
EvMtock are able to Use some fted
—-ouch as grains without the pro-
cessing that is necessary with
other sources of feed.
Cottonseed is a familiar exam-1
pls of this. All of the feed ele-
ments contained in cottonseed;
meal and bulls are contained in the '
■sod but cottonseed Is not an effi-
cient feed, whereas cottonseed
njeal and hulls are economical and
efficient feedstuffs The money re-
oeived from the sale of a ton of
cottonseed will buy 50 to 100 per
cent more feeding value in meal
and bulls.
Seed Wasteful As Feed
Both practical experience and
Experiment Station research have
proved that the feeding of cotton-
oeed is wasteful. The reasons for
tMs are obvious, when the products
contained In a cottonseed are tak-
tn into consideration.
The feeding value of cottonseed
is due to its content of meal, hulls
and oil. However, a ton of cotton-
assd contains only, on the average
004 pounds of uncooked meats
(which are converted into meal)
and 553 pounds of hulls. There are
232 pounds of lint, dirt, stones and
other waste in a ton of seed, none
W* which can be used by the anl-'
mal .and in addition, a ton of seed
contains approximately 311 pounds
, of Oil, an excessive amount which
tends to scour animals and causes
them to pass undigested or un-
wed much of the natural food val-
ue of the meats and hulls.
Meal More Palatable
Livestock make much better
gains when fed a palatable feed.
For this reason, the faet that cot-
tonseed meal is more palatable
than the uncooked meats contain-1
«d in seed Is Important in keeping
stock on feed and In securing effi-
cient use of the feed.
Dairy producer* are particular-
ly interested in the fact that the

cottonseed is fed. Excess oil In cot-
tonseed results In brittle, tallowy

In the development of the live-
stock industry of the South, no
■Ingle factor is of greater impor-
tanrs than the efficient use of
available feeds. Certainly, the effi-
cient use of cottonseed, the South's
Icrgvet source of protein, by con-
verting it into cottonseed meal and

to cotton growers, as well as to

Two Warships Speed

Off Valencia
LONDON, Sept. 1. (UP)— AMjl
unidentified submarine attacksd^F
the British destroyer Havock ott^*
Cape Antonio, on the east coast
of Spain, during the night, the ad- v
miraity announced today.
The submarine fired a torpedo
at the Havock but did not’hit it,
the admiralty said.
... The attack occurred about 60
miles south of Valencia, in an
area where mystery submarines—
the Spanish Nationalist navy la
credited with having only one
have been attacking Loyalist and
foreign merchantmen.
Meanwhile, France, angsred at
Italian intervention on the Nation-
alist (rebel) aide in the civil war, -
was threatening to open her frui-
tier for munitions and volunteers
for the Loyalist*.
Britain and France are now ne-
■bL gotiatlng over»the Spanish situs- *
■ lion. It was learned
A few hour* before the an-
nouncement of the submarine at-
tack on the Havock, the British
destroyer* Hyperion and Hardy, -
at Gfbraltd^ had received urgent
orders to proceed at once to the
Spanish coast near Cape San An-
tonio.
No reason was assigned for the
order, but it was reported tn re-
liable quarters at Gibraltar that
foreign "iflrate’’ submarines had
been sighted off Valencia.
Farther up the coast, off Sosa
Mar in Catalonia, an undisntifted
submarine twice attacked three
Spanish Loyalist merchantntan
yesterday, but was driven off

merchant ships.
