Cotton os an Investment.
If Washington dispatches are cor-
ret. several members of Congress
are s- hed tiled to confer with prcsi-
dent Taf t this week on ways to de-
stroy the commercial mechanism by
which raw cotton has been given a
world-wide market to the great ad
vantage of the grower, trader and
manufacturer.
Investments in cotton lands of the
South total not less than $25.00o.uu.
and in cotton textile mills in the
United States fuUy$600,000,000. Ad led
to this fully $150,000,000 more occu
pied in carrying the cot'on crop com
mercially. These three fields of In
vestment have a combined investment
of capital tt $1,000,000,000.
ThLt country producing two-thirds
of the world's cotton crop, and has
thereby a partial monopoly of great
value to the Southern grower. Ye
the whole cotton growing world Is
larger than ever before. The British
