The relation of cotton to Interna tional reconstruction is intelligently outlined by Hon. E. J. Watson in the following call for: the extraordinary session of the otton Congress: "The eighth annual convention of the Southern Commercial Congress is to be held in Norfolk, Va., Decem ber 11-14, 1916, and the series of ses sions will be devoted, not only to the most practical consideration of the vital questions relating to agriculture education, to the industries and ; to commerce, but to an interpretation of the relation of the United States to International reconstruction fol lowing the close of the world war, which has in so many ways affected American commerce and industry. It is the purpose during these sessions to review conditions as they exist to day and looking to the future, to build a program that will meet the exigencies of tremendously changed economic conditions at the close of the world war. "Nothing that . America possesses was more affected by the outbreak of the European war than cotton; noth ing will be of more concern to the future prosperity of the nation than the future of American cotton.
