Committee of Soothers Senators and
RepresenUttres Advise Tanners to
Hold the Staple for Higher Prices.
Washington, Aug. 24. After dis-
eoaming what was referred to as
'threatening condition of the eotton
market,'.', a conference of southern
senators and representatives through
commit tee eonsisting oi senators
Williams, of Mississippi and Owen.
of Oklahoma, and Representative
Burleson, of Texas decided to rive
formal advice to farmers' organisa
tions, to "bold eotton for thirteen
cents." A committee will nrre the
state banking associations to co-operate
against the "bearish movement
of the speculators."
The committee, which will advise
farmers to "hold for 13 eents" is
sued a statement which says in part:
"It seemed to be the opinion of all
that there was a preconcerted effort
being made, principally through in
strumentality of the speculative ele
ment of the New York eotton ex
change to break down the price of
cotton. It was-the opinion of all that
the present statistical condition of
eotton did not justify the lowness of
present quotations and that the esti
mate of 15,000,000 of bales was un-
unjustined by any facts upon which
prediction could be sanely based.
and that moreover, even if a 15,000,
000 bale crop, were, in sight the
world's supplies still probably would
tall short of the world s demand to
the extent of more than 1,000,000
bales, because of the exhaustion of the
present visible supply of earried-over
spot cotton.) ' ;-vi, :V , i.
'In other words, with a 15,000,-
000 American crop, the world's crop
for lull would sum up only 25,000,.
000 with 140,000,000 of spindles cre
ating an active demand for 26,000,-
000 bales. This opinion was based
upon the latest advices from Egypt,
India, China and other cotton pro
ducing countries.
