SOMEONE MAKES
GREAT BLUNOER

WASHINGTON. Sept f2.-Either
the Tariff Board or the Census Blu
reau has made Il colossal hiunder in
estimates for the 1910 production of
raw cotton. This fact was discovered
to-day by officials or the Southern
Commercial Congress while preparing
Il tabulation on cotton production.
There Is difference of more than
million bales In the estimates or
the Tariff Board and the Census Blu
reaH for the 1910 crop. On June -.
1871, the Census Bureau issued a re-
port giving the cotton production for
1910 as ll.42s. 600 bales, Prey ious
figures given out by ,ne Tarin Board
gave the production at Io3ss,ooo
bales. This Is a difference Of 1885,
0ou bales.
The Tariff Boards figures we're
largely used ~ the House WAYS and
Means Committee in preparing the
cotton tariff bill which was vetoed
by President TAFT during tho recent
extraordinary session.
This IL not the onry estimate Of
cotton production BY the Census Eu-
reau and the Tariff Board which dG5s
not agree. The bureau and The hog ri 2
estimates for the worlds Protection
Of cotton for 1910 differed bY more
than a.ooa,a bales. NOT q single cs-
timate Of production Tn any country
being approximately tne same.
Officials of the board and the hu.
reau. when questioned to-day. could
not explain the discrepancy.
The different estimates shows, de-
clared the Southern Commercial Com.
gress officials to-day, that either ths
Census Bureau or the Tariff Eoafd
cannot he relied on for correct reports
OF cotton production.
1t is probs hle representatives from
cotton producing States will take up
the matter at the next session OF Com
gress and advocate legislation to OBJ
tain correct cotton statistics.
