Slavery of woman and children in
the cotton Aelda la the only means nf
Marketing tha ataplo at the prevent
low price, according to a atatemrnt
nu.de by W. W Morrison, of the New
Or lean* Cotton Exchange, In a com
raimication to the American Colton
Aa*ocialion. He oatimatea that it
cords 47 8-B cent* to produce a pound
of cotton,
"Owing to a wholly erroneous es
timate by tha public." ha najri, "ml
Ion haa alway* occupitd a fal*r r>o*i
on in the economic life of the South
"This in due to the habit, inherited
from the regime of slavery of not
charging the crop up with the ex
LCUIC involved in lie nprtdnr*ir»n In
keeping with what sound basinet*
usage demands.
“In the 8oath cattle, sheep, earn,
os Is, potatoes and other products,
representing millions of dollars In
value, havt bssn and continue to be
consumed each year on the farms on
which they are grown.
“Where half tne area cultivated is
in cotton, the consumption of fully
76 per rent of these products ia made
necessary by the cultivatson and har
vesting of the cotton crop, that being
the exeesa of labor which cotton re
quires. In other wards, if it had not
baen for the cottoa crop, 76 per cent
of these products could have Wen
said for cash and would havc become
a liquid asset to the fanner.
Must Demand Bight Prise.
Mr. Morrison stresses the fact in
hit communication to tha American
Cotton Association that when farmers
realise they now are not grosring cot
"««lg!IMMMMV
labor—then cotton will no longer
prove a liability. The American Cot
ton Association has agrccd'on a min
imum pries of 66 cants to solve thin
pro Warn.
Further impressing the fact that
non cotton product* are really paying
for marketing tha crop, Mr. Morrison
says: “Until vary recent years, not
a dollars worth of them products
ware ever charged up to cotton, or
was seriously regarded as putt of tbs
expense of its producting. Thousands
of women and children, white as well
as black, have worked in cotton fields,
the major part of them andcr tha
moat wretched conditions of poverty;
yet, for the better part of half a
century their labor was not even con
sidered an item of expense in growing
cottoa.
Slavery Day Custom.
This habit. Inherited from slavery
days of giving cotton tha Wnefit of
fre« labor and frec food, finally be
came crystalixed into the convention
al view, which has been for yean,
more or less authoritative, and has to
a considerable degree, intimidated the
free expression of opinion regarding
tW «oet of production. The fact ia,
a strict accounting so aroused our
ideas of the coat of production at
compared with the views so based upon
the slipshod met bods of the past—the
real basis for the conventional view
—that students from fear of criticism
were for a long time reluctant to an
nounce lh* result of their calcula
tions, although Uiair findings were
clearly justified by the rules of sound
bookkeeping, and also, by the recog
nlicd fact a* to tna value of th*
product* In production.

IHSr unhesitatingly declared, ac
cording to Tho Grvensboro News, that
Congress should pass a law to pre
vent strikes in all enterprises, which
I vc crptivd in intaritate commerce.
| r cimpulsnvy arbitration would be
written into the national statutes, he
insisted, and the states also should as
set laws to provide for similar pro
hibition of strikes.
"The psychological time baa arriv
ed for as to hark back to fundament
el principle*,” declared the governor.
"The great trouble at pmeent be
tween capital and labor i/ that the
disease is being treated symptoms
lically, not fundamentally. A salve,
as it were, is being applied, and it
proves efficacious In local infections,
but you must remove the cause of
this trouble. After healing one sore
spot, the trouble presently breaks out
more violently in some other pert of
the body politic. We must dsvise
tom; fundamental formula.
"In my opinion the congressional
ommiUee investigating tile steel
strike had a wonderful opportunity
ihe other day when Mr. Fltspatriek
mid that if the steel company would
ogre, to arbitration the men would
Immediately return to work. The
committee should have replied that
such a proposition wonld find accept
ance, provided the principle of arbi
irution wcr0 made permanent, incor
porated aa a bade part of the method
of handling industrial quarrels.
"In-other words, the committee
should work for the early paasagt by
Congress of a law providing for the
arbitration of all industrial diigmtas
between employes and employers In
concerns whosa products ars handled
in Industrial plants of that character.”
Here tb* governor indicated that
he is seriouply considering placing
the matter before the special eesrioa
of tho general assembly at Raleigh
next summer, with a recommendation
for enactment of a similar Inw. Al
though he turn not yet resmhed n defin
ite dechelon tn regard to the matter
he declared that ne one should seek
to minimise the importance of thf
Question or to elude the inescapable
net that remedial action la absolutely
imperative.
The beat start hi the direction of
strike prevention ond compulsory ar
bitration of the disputes between cap
ital and labor may be made with the
public utilities, declared Governor
Bickett. The transportation system
was denominated a "supreme necessity

country, he pointed out, might result
| In Incalculable hardships to the pa©
pis. Including loss of Ufa as wall as of
property, together with an economic
loss that woald be beyond Kansan
'imputation.
Public Has Sight.
"If the tleup of transportation sys
tems ta to ho permitted," exclaimed
the governor, "government of the peo
ylo, by the people and for the people
■halt perish from the earth.”
The public also has certain inalien
able rights, the governor stated,
