Moore, they have poor way OF
showing it. IfAcotton were to
drop to ten cents he declared it
would not start a single spindle.
Eleven States in the South are
raising more cotton than the
world will take at a fair price.
1t would not help the mills a
bit to sell for ten cents; it is
simply a matter of over produc-. :.
ton. The old world says it:t
has taken six or seven million
bales of cotton and is we'll sup
piled, andit will hold off to see
what you fellows will do. It
will have to have three million
bales more, and the mills of
New England will need two
and a half millions, the South
ern mills about the same
amount-14 million bales neces-
saay to supply the world, and
4 crop of less than II mil
lions. The old world has 7 mil
lion and needs: three million
more, and the mills of Canada
aud New England need 2 II
million bales, so it is difficult
to see where. the mills Of thu
} South are going to get their
8 supply. If the price is allowed
to drop-it will be a difficult
= matter TO raise it again, be
: cause there is lack of conf
, dence in tn = ability of the Cot
] ton Association to hold up thu
= price. The cotton mills o
d England are able to pay Is cent
:. for cotton, and they take II
n million bales, and If the mill
e of tho South couldsnot pay tina
II price they had better Shut dow
II than for the farmer to sell l
n million bales at a price to &C
1t commodate the consumer VIII
le only uses 2 IL million bales.
J. Mr.. Moore asserted that th
o. only banks that did not issu
v script during the recent PAM
D. were the banks in the cotto
