Daniel O'Ddl A Company and a
Member of tbe New York Oottoa
Exchange, Says Cotton Prices Rare
Advanced Because of the Possibility
of a Material Redaction k I
Acreage.

3. Anderson of thla place, who has lad
charge of pattin* the "Rock Hill ^
Plan" for. the redaction of cotton (
icreage. Into effect, has just received f
he following letter from Jatnee O. f
Williams, a member of the cotton ^
brokerage Arm of Daniel O'Dell A
2o., of 71 Broadway, New York, and '
rho Is also a member of the New
fork Cotton Exchange. Mr. Wlllama'
r
i rtI-am very much pressed to learn
aui your enoru nave dmd so sucsossful
tn bringing about a promised
naterial reduction in the cotton acreige
for this year. I wish you every
iucce?s and believe it to the very salration
of the cotton planter.
"I consider that many spinners are
aylng in supplies for future needs in
rlew of the possibilities of a material
eduction In acreage this year.
"When I was south last October a
>lg spinner told me that if cotton
vent to 8 l-2c he expected to buy
luffldent to run him for two years,
is he considered it a safe Investment
it a price which he considered below
he coot of production. His views unloubtedly
represented the views of
tumorous spinners all over the counry
and when the price reached a
mint at which they considered that
he actual cotton could not be proluced,
they began buying on a heavy
cale. This heavy baying In my
pinion, turned the market and the
isee with which it( has since sdranoee
has not only made them surer
if th^ir position, hut has encouraged
|to follow their example, and h
he eonseQuenoe is that we have a
nuch more optimistic feeling today
ban we had a months ago., alhough
there has been no redaction
n estimates of last year's yield.
"As to the future course of merest,
I believe it absolutely depends
ipon the acreage planted, fertilisers
ised and progress made in this year's
rrop, for certainly if Indications point
o another big yield, spinners who
lave bought far into the future will
to the first to try to unload In the
ixpectation of buying again at maerial
receeslons, while th? demand
vill become so slack rfchat there
rould surely follow a tremendous
ireak la priosa h 'r. "
"On the other hgnd, if the prostoets
were tor a small crop the spintore
would feel assured of their poIttlon
