Cotton is selling at thirteen cents a pound, and cotton is still “King” down here. Textile mills, to bacco factories, steel plants, and re sort hotels are all well ahead of 1934.

The dead are the plane’s crew of three and its eight passengers, all Ger mans. One of the main purposes of my field trip is to find out what the av- I erage Southerner thinks “off the rec j ord” of the cotton control program. First andm ost important, of course, is the fact that cotton is selling a round thirteen cents a pound against eleven a year ago. After five and six cent cotton in 1931 and 1932 and the miserable failure of private crop con trol, naturally growers are ninety per cent behind continuation of the Bank head Act. Those who oppose thep ro gram are mostly big growers, so what the vote might be on an acreage basis, I do not know. The brokers, 0.-.

I.—Auto manufac turers are very much interested in averting strikes in the auto and sub sidiary industries. (But they will hold out to the last against the American Federation of Labor). The manufacturers are interested for a potent reason. If they can have ! uninterrupted production from now | till April 1, the auto output for the first quarter of 1935 may total as high as 1,100.000 units. There were only . 150,000 units in the like period last ' year. Production of 1,100.000 units would exceed the first quarter production of any year since 1930—when the total ; was approximately that. A glass strike already has lowered glass supplies. Production is not expected to con tinue at such a high rate all year.
