leaves it an extreme degree of arbitrary
power. This committee is usually made
up of men who are large operators on the
exchange. and who are constantly inter-
ested in the future market. 1t is within
their power SO to fix these differences as
to affect enormously the value of their
own future contracts. In this same re-
vision of November 1866, when the diff
ferences fixed by the committee were
radically wrong, several members of this
committee have admitted that they were
at the time heavily interested in future
contracts. and that they profited by the
action OF the committee. There is no con-

Fixed differences are an attempt SUBJ
stantially'to render future transactions a
.'sure thing for limited class of specu-
lative experts. The system amounts to
an attempt absolutely to fix prices-an
economic absurdity. The relative values
of different grades are as much subject
to the natural laws of supply and demand
as the value of middling cotton itself.
and it is as unreasonable to attempt 20

of the contract.
The foregoing criticisms were striking
ly illustrated in November, 19l6, as the
result of the failure of the New York
revision committee to establish correct
differences Owing to abnormal weather
conditions the commercial values OF the
lower grades of cotton fell very sharply
from the price of middling. The revision
committee failed to adjust its liked"
differences to the actual situation and
established differences for low grades
which very heavily overvalued them. AS

season is going to be the greatest in the
history of motor touring.
While hundreds of cars have been
shipped abroad to meet their owners in
England, France, Germany. Italy and
other parts Of Europe. thousands of tour
lists have gone abroad with the intention
OF touring in leased cars. 1t is noticeable,
too, that this custom Of leasing cars for
special tours Is increasing In favor in
America. Many competent drivers who
know the roads and how to tour have

1t is great fun. Of course, for the novice
to start out touring with his own car, but
the wise beginner leases car for the first
season or until he learns a few things.
Like every other branch of sport and rec
reation, automobile touring has to be
studied a bit before one gets down to the
basis of the maximum of enjoyment with
the minimum of annoyance and irritation.
Nearly every one who has toured could
write fourteen books of advice to begin
ners about what to do and what not to
do, what kind of a car to buy and where
to go. etc. And after the beginner had
read all the advice he could find in print
