At a meet ing of North Carolina bankers In Washington Wednesday, Including H. C. McQueen, of Wilmington; W. B. Drake, of Raleigh; W. L. Parsons, of Rocky Mount; A. W. McLean, of Lumberton. and It. O. Everett, of Durham, with the cotton commis sion, recently appointed by Gov. Morrison, a general survey of the cotton situation with regard to th agricultural situation was mads from the most reliable information obtain able. It appears that there is a larger surplus of cotton on hand at the present time than at the same time In any year In the past. The domestic consumption Is greatly re duced on account of the unfavorable conditions in the home markets. The foreign demand Is reduced to approximately one-third on account of the unsettled conditions and con sequent lack of buying power la foreign countries which, In normal times, consumes about two-thirds of the American crop. As an evidence of this condition, It is reliably stated that recently spot cotton was lower In Liverpool than In New York tak ing into consideration the adverse exchange conditions. Those who have studied the sub ject most carefully are unanimously of the opinion that with the present lack of buying power both at homo and abroad, there is cotton enough on hand now to supply the actual demand for a year or more, even If no cotton at all were raised during the year 1921 In America. At the present time the price of cotton Is fnr below the cost of pro duction. With anything like normal production In 1921, it Is likely that not only tho new crop but this old crop on hand and unconsumed will Distiniruished Catholic Prelate Had Been in Failing Health for lt seems that the only way to pre- h ' it 11 t .
