CALLS FOR THE BASIS
HEFLIN SEEKS INFORMATION FROM WILSON.
Resolution by Alabama Conxressman Demands Information as to the Goyernment Estimate of
 Cotton Crop.

Washington, Dec. 16.-A resolution charging the Secretary of Agriculture with inaceuracy in estimating this years crop and calling on him to fur nish to Congress "the figures and the information upon which he based his estimate of the cotton crop of the United States for 1907," was introduced in the House today by MT, Hehin of Alabama.
 In explaining the resolution, Mfr. Hefin said:
 By December, 1905. according to the Government report, there had been ginned S,690.o00 bales of cotton and there remained to be ginned of that years crop according to the Govern ment's final report. 1,ss5.0a6 bales.
 Now. when the Government report shows only s.33e,000 bales ginned by December, 1907, 352,oo0 bales less than was ginned by December 1. 1905, I want to know. and the cotton producing section of this country wants to know, by what method of reasoning the Sec retary of Agriculture has reached the conclusion that there remains to be ginned of this years crop. 3,340,000 bales. This estimate by the Secretary of Agriculture has cost the producer several million dollars already.
 The facts do not warrant his esti- mate No such crop has been made If we are going to have and rely on Government reports as to the cotton crop. we must insist that those in au- thority base their estimates upon more informaion and not on suggestions from any other source.
 The passage of my resolution will accomplish that end and 1t will reveal to the country in time to help the cotton producer to obtain a fair price for the remainder of this years small crop that the Secretary of Agriculture is entirely mistaken In his estimate of the cotton crop for 1907"
 The resolution is apt to receive early consideration, for even the Republicans cannot afford to deny the information.
