Increased Demand for Cotton, Atten tion Is called to the following statement by Mr. Charles J. Brand. Chairman of the Committee ou Cotton Distribution and Chief of the Bureau of Markets of tho Department of Ag riculture, on November 14, announcing the Committed action requiring the suspension of speculative "short" Bell- | ing of cotton on the echan??s. Ii will be noted that the Cotton Committee,' reflecting the views of the Department of Agriculture as well as of the cotton experts constituting the committee, con flaently expect an Increase in volume-! of eports and consumption of cottotlr?4. "The signing of the armistice brings 1 us suddenly to the threshold of the reconstruction era. Pending develop ments are of the utmost importance to the entire cotton world. "The consequences of unfounded ru mors that tend to promote vicious spec ulative activity and cause unjustified demoralization must be -avoided as for as possible. In order th:" harmful violent price fluctuations may be check ed the Committe on Cott Distrlbu- 1 tion has ordered all speculative short selling on the> New York end New Or leans Cotton Exchanges stopped, and, j to make this order thoroughly effective, has required that no selling orders ex-; cept in liquidation of long contracts be | executed from any foreign country. "The stoppage of sinkings by U-boata the monthly increase in new ship ton noge and the releasing of ships now engaged in supplying the fleets of the Allies, together with the freeing of space previously used In sending muni- ' tlons to~ Europe^ will mean a large in-' crease In available tonnage for cotton exports. "The world's requirements of cotton to meet its increasing demands for. clothing will henceforth be on a con tiguously ascending scale. Based on reports to this committee front the various foreign countries, we estimate their requirements and probable ex-1 ports of cotton under present condi tions to be over two million bales in! excess of last season's takings. "Europe is almost denuded of cotton and cotton goods. The potential buy ing power of the world which will be aided and hastened by the establish ment of the necessary credits will quickly assert itself." GIRLS!
