Berlin, July 20.—The report of the
■second subcommittee of the com-
mittee of investigation on’President
Wilson’s peace effort during the
winter of 1916-1917, prepared by
Professor Sinsheimer, former social-
ist member of the reichstag, draws
the conclusion that President Wil-
son’s action made peace overtures
possible, but that the German gov-
emnSent, not availing itself of them
took a stand for unrestricted U-boat
warfare.
The report is signed by six mem-
bers of the different political par-
ties. It is a grave indictment of
Germany’s military dictators at the
time. The report shows how the
economists of Chancellor von Beth-
mann-Hollweg’s civil government,
even the commercial attache to the
German embassy, who, being famil
iar with the American situation, in-
sistently warned against unrestrict -
jed U-boat warfare. The report men-
jtioned Von Papen’s message to Gen-^
jeral Erich von Falkenhayen, former |

Chicago, III., July 20.—The United

totaling $600,000,000. The increase

Dallas, Texas, July 20.—Three
factors—the lateness of the season,
destruction by boll weevils and the
pink boll worm—have had the ef-
fect of making the present cotton
crop in Texas the poorest of the
last decade, according to E. F.

division of the American Cotton As-
sociation. '
“While since June 1 there has
