Options Favor Sellers.

Options Favor Sellers.
His complaints against the exchange
are that all the options in the contracts
made on the exchange are in favor of
the sellers, that the differences Of price
between the grades are fixed arbitrarily
by those in control of the exchange and
that the contracts do not specify the
grade Of cotton o be delivered under
them.
The witness wants some measures
adopted to prevent corners of the cotton
market and to provide against the de-
preston OF the market by manipulation.
AS a protection against corner or the
cotton market, he suggested that deliver
les of cotton should be allowed, not only
in New York. but in southern cities like
Little Rock, Ark, and Columbia, b e.
at New York prices less the carrying
charges To prevent the arbitrary depres-
sion of the market. Mr.. Parker suggested
that the contracts be made for the future
delivery of only good spinning cotton.
Grade Delivered by Seller.
IT was explained that the manufactur
ers who bought cotton on the New York
exchange do not expect deliveries OF that
cotton. The sellers in New York are al
lowed to deliver any grade they desire
and therefore prevent the manufacturers
from demanding delivery by the threat to
deliver cotton that cannot be used In
tho factories, this threat being backed up
nv actual transactions in the past. The
manufacturers, he said. buy in the cot
TON exchange to protect themselves
AGAINST the failure of producers or their
agents to deliver cotton at times speci-
So, ,r account of adverse prices.
His experiences in the New York Cot

in the price of raw material to the pro-
A. one time when the witness was de-
scr,h,ne fluctuations of price he remark
"a In response to a question. that the.
oranges were due to manipulatons on
the cotton exchange. .
IT think we have an evil right there
that ought to be remedied," remarked
Sanator Clarke Later. the Arkansas
serator tried to get the witness to admit
,hat the operations of the cotton eX-
chanee were gambling, but the witness
reSerred to the operations there as
hedging and asserted that 1t was le-
Ar another time. when the witness de-
scrihed the revisions Of the differences
In nrfca between the grades as arbitrary,
Senator crawford remarked:

with and negotiate collective agree
mentS with their wOrkmen was the
cause of many strikes. He said in
part:
ask you to consider the question of
strike from the point of view of the stock
holders and of the laborers. The stock
holders when they form a corporation act
upon the legal right to be represented by
officers of their own choice in everything
that they do as stockholders The labor
ers when they organize claim the same
right to be represented as sellers of labor
by officials of their own choice in collec-
tive bargaining for their labor. When the
stockholders through their elected officials
decline to confer with labor union
through its elected officials the stockhold-
ers are put in the position of virtually
saying to the laborers, 1--WE insist upon
all the privileges of combination for our
selves. but we claim the right to deal
with our laborers individuals" And
thus they deny to organized laborers the
benefits of collective bargaining which
they demand for themselves.
1t is entirely clear that stockholders
when they do this through their elected
officials are acting within their legal
rights, but it is equally clear that they
are acting very incOnsistently. A certain
percentage of strikes is caused by pre-
cisely this attitude on the part of corpo-
rations. This attitude is SO Illogical that
1 do not believe 1t can be permanently
maintained, and think that the disinter-
ested public is becoming more and more
impatient with the attitude of corpora
tons that permit strikes to take place
simply by declining to confer with a un-
ion. Strikes no doubt will take place be-
cause of disagreement on the merits even
after such conferences are held. but a
strike upon the merits of a dispute settles
something. So does arbitration upon
the merits. But refusal to confer set
ties nothing.
Mr.. Low went on to say that an open
shop should mean shop in which I'M
ion labor and nonunion labor are en-
| ployed indiscriminately and in which
