MANY CUTTING THE ACREAGE

Here in Georgia, in Arkansas
and in Texas the cotton planters
have organized state associations
and agreed to cut their acreage %
per cent. Organization is proceed
ing in other cotton states, and with
diigent effort will no doubt be eff
feeted in all of them. This is the
only salvation.
Since the movement first started
last December, Immediately after
the great slump in prices, cotton
has advanced fully s. a bale, and
.middling is now holding steady at
Z cents or better,
We firmly believe that but for
this organized effort to hold the
surplus and reduce the acreage it
would be selling today at cents.
Therefore, the gain has really
been ? cents a pound or so bale.
But the supreme test is is yet to
come,
The surplus of 1000, 900 bales
hangs over the market as a de-
Structive portent which can be
averted only by faithful compli-
ance with the promise to reduce.
There are today just that many
bales of cotton more than the world
actually needs this year.
The only way to equalize pro-
ductiOn with consumption is to re-
duce the next crop not only to a
basis of II, 900, 900 or II, 500, 900
the worlds requirements for one
year-but 1000, 900 more in order
to absorb the surplus and make the
next seasons total supply, includ-
ing the surplus and the new crop
only II, 900, 900 or II, 100000
| Figuring the last crop at II, 900,
loco, this means that the mex
should not exceed 100000 to 8,
1900, 000-a reduction Of at least 2!
per cent in acreage.
The fist acreage report by tn
government will be issued in June
Until that time the promise to re
duce will probably maintain pres
ent prices, but when that report o
the actual facts is made, the pric
for the next crop will be unaltera
bly, fixed within reasonable fuctu
ations of weather.
: If the acreage is actually re
duced, all will be well. If it i
not actually reduced, all will b.
i'll, and nothing but disastrou
growing and harvesting season vii
restore prices.
4: 1t is believed that most farmer
will keep faith and reduce acreage
But here and there one will proba
bly, seek to put in large acreage
with the idea that others will re
duce and he will profit thereby
E All such should be sought out b.
e the faithful and persuaded to de
} sist. Few men can resist the influ
ence of their neighbors in such
matter.
This is the first organized move
ment for reduction and much de
= ponds upon its success. Indeed,
e it fails not only will disaster com
e this year, but it will be PRACTICAL
impossible to organize again.

WRECK OF THE HILDA
JAMES GRINTER, A SURVIVOR, l.-. TELLS HIS STORY.
Says There is no Truth in the Report
 That steamers Boilers Burst Vessel Struck a ... Rock.

St. Malo, Nov. 21.--James Grinter, the only survivor of the crew of the British channel steamer Hilda. wrecked of this port Saturday night with the loss of l23, lives, was interviewed today by correspondent of the Associated Press and definitely settled disputed points fin connection with the disaster. Grinter said:
 There is mo truth in the report that the Hilda's boilers burst. There was a terrific shock as the steamer struck the rocks and this made noise resembling an explosion. I am an engine room me- chanic, and as such I am positive that the boilers are intact.
 The Hilda was pinned on huge rock and the waves sweeping fiercely over her carried away the women and children.
 With thirty other persons, by actual count, climbed up into the. rigging and managed to hold on. until rescued. The others gradually fell off before the fearful storm of hail and sleet. until only six of us remained when we were sighted by the steamer Ada, which res cuet us when nearly dead as the result of cold and exposure.
 The report that the Hilda struck Sunday morning is also, wrong. She went on the rocks at 10 o'clock Satur- day night while going dead slow and trying to make an entrance to St. Malo's harbor
