ANOTHER COTTON PANIC IS FEARED CONDITIONS THAT ARK ALARM ING to t h k sorai. Amendment* to file Warehouse Act of Importance o Handlers of Cotton; Atlanta Grower and Banker Presents . Reasons For Unking Statement. Washington, Sept. 14.?"Cotton producers are ready to make another crop. and. true to history, the prite de clines as the time drawee' nearer for the cottqn to be sold." remarked Win. II. Clegg, a-farmer and btmk^r of At lanta. Ga.. ii> an interview in Wa-'h in&ton. "The*"radical deklino for the last few days seems to forebode anoth er, cotton panic sim Hot. t j those of 1M4 and lyis. Thy ^present crisis in tlie cf>:ron mafket is caused by several imfavor^UI" conditions which demand tentiou.. The principal trouble is thaj the European market is practical ly dosed bceau&v ?f the jilmost pro hibitive rates of foreign cxciiang'o. To iilustphe.- it takes nearly $1.20 of En glish money. "of French money, $2 of Italian inoutvy and neaii> ;.4 of Gorman money to bi^y $1 worth of Am- ' i*iic;? cot.fon. Th*>se conditions are a la riii ing' the cotton, producers in the South, because .they export ajprge part of their ootton. "The depressed financial conditions in Europe, can bo handled by the IVtl eral government uittoui lo<s. and by prompt action the cotton producers may be saved $500.000.000 on the 1919 crop. There can be ih> relief save hrough the government. Uet the Un ited Slates take charge of the present cotton at a fair price, carry it to war stricken countries of Europe, freight added; sell it to those countries on time, issuing bonds against if, and rc ieve the situation. "This is not asking the government Liey. hut for government cred ducers sell their cotton onacreo those European countries, those con tracts must be made negotiable and converted into a liquid asset that may be handled in regular commercial channels. An acceptance Issued against American cotton secured by those European governments would make the tansaction safe. But is in dividuals lure cannot deal with for eign governments direct, the United States government should handle these contracts for the American cotton pro ducers and in turn secure those con tracts to the'cotton sel\ers of Ameri ca. This, will furnish an immediate market for American cotton at. fair prices and start the wheels of the Bu? ropecm industries." Amendment to Warehouse Law. To place the business of cotton ware housing on a stable basis and provide receipts for cotton that aro negotiable at any bank has long been an aim of persons interested in cotton, and un der the amended United States cotton warheuse act this is likely to be real ized . The warehouse act has just been amended so as to permit the accepance of personal bonds frbm warehouse men and to pemit the issuance of ne gotiable receipts, when requested by the depositors of cotton in the ware house. without stating the grade of the cotton. The grade must be stated however, unless the request.to omit it is made. The purpose of the warehouse act is to create a warehouse receipt of un questioned value and one which will be acceptable to all bankers as se curity for obtaining loans, regardless of the location of the'warehouse. Warehouse men desiring to take ad vantage of the opportunity extended should apply to the Bureau of Mark ets. at Washington, for the application forms. Upon receipt of the blanks they should be tilled out and sent to the Bun .hi of Markets at Washington along with Ihe nominal Inspection f?'? required. This fee is based on the capacity of th ? warehouse at the rate of *l for each l.ooo bales of its capac ity.
