MANN BACk FROM
LAND OF C0TT0y.
EXPLAINS PLAN PROPOSED TO RE-
LIEvE SITUATION OF SOUTH
ERN GROWERS.
U NIQUE SITUATION
WITH CROP TWO MILLIONS OF
BALES GREATER, MONEY
{
VALUE Is LESS THAN LAST
YEAR By e3sO,ooo,ooo.

Governor Mann reached Richmond
yesterday morning from New Orleans.
where he participated actively in the
conference OF Southern Governors on
the cotton situation. The Governor
gave his hearty approval to the plans
proposed looking to the corporation
on the part of the Southern growers.
with a view to the procuring OF a
normal price for the cotton crop,
As explained by the Governor the
cotton situation Is either very much
out OF joint or powerful interests have
interrupted the normal law of sup
ply and demand. According to the
government crop report the years
crop will reach thirteen million. eight
hundred thousand bales, which 10
about seven hundred thousand bales
less than individual traders estimate.
= The crop last year wass twelve mil
lions. one hundred thousand bales.
notwithstanding the large crop the
money value OF the crop this year at
current prices Is $350.000,o0 less
than that OF the smaller crop of last
year. and. as two-thirds Of the crop
n exported. the reduction in price Will
mean a trade balance less by tts.s
hundred and ten millions of dolla rs
than the trade balance from this
source last year. Arrangements have
been contaminated by which two mill
lions OF bales OF cotton will be abso-
tutciy withdrawn from the market,
leaving the available supply less than
the available supply Of last year.
Under normal trade laws this should
bring about a readjustment of mar
ket conditions says the Governor. to
the end that virtually the same prices
should prevail as last year. However.
while himself a believer in the stability
OF the law OF supply and demand, the
Governor seems convinced that there
are powers that are not bound by
such Law.

Facts as To Future Demand.

The government heretofore has been
gathering Information as TO the prob
able supply Of cotton. According to
action taken by the Southern Cover
nors the government will hereafter
seek to ascertain the probable demand
for the crop as we'll as to learn the
extent of the crop itself From re-
ports gathered from American con-
suiar representatives II u estimated
that the normal demand for cotton
from customers will he in the neigh
horhood OF nine and one-half millions
of bales, while the domestic demand
will be rather more than four millions
of bales. Should the plan to take two
millions of bales entirely of the mar
ket. and to curtail production next
year. work out in practice the visible
supply Of cotton should be reduced
that point at which the growers Eill
be able 10 get what they consider a
living price.
