The Cotton Situation

1 markable tenacity close to the cent level throughout the entire month, and the holding movement, while general all over the south, has not assumed the un- wieldly proportions that some thought 1t would, as it has been confined chiefly to those who were prepared out of their own resources to hold cotton, or who have been able to borrow from their local banks, directly or through mer- chants. It is important that some cotton should remain in the hands of produc- CTS until planting time next spring, to preserve their interest Tn the present crop, as some reduction in acreage ap pears to be very desirable for another record breaking chop next year would result in ruinousy low prices.
 "Those farmers who will still have some cotton on hand next March will be more apt to reduce their cotton acreage than those who have entirely sold out Every encouragement should be given to the sitication of crops and our farmers should be impressed with the importance ofplant- ing more corn and other food crops and less cotton. The boil weevil has been re- ported in 12 counties in Alabama, and in those sections particularly the cotton acreage should be reduced to a minimum next season, as the damage there will undoubtedly be great. The textile trade is improving steadily. and at present prices, with a large supply of cotton in sight, cotton mills appear to have a good year ahead of them and there Is no doubt that many of the larger mills will take advantage of the present abundant supply to provide for future require ments as soon as prices show a tendency to advance.

Woodward Iron Company

sThe event of greatest importance local ly during the month of November was the acquisition of the properties of the Birmingham Coal and Iron company by the Woodward Iron company, which now becomes the largest holder of iron ore and coal in Alabama with the exception of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company. It is understood that the Woodward Iron company will at once expend a large sum of money In exten- sions and Improvements, and that ample provision has been made for even larger construction and more extended improve ments in the future, thus assuring to the Birmingham district strong independ- ent company which will no doubt enter largely into the manufacture of finished products. This combination is regarded in industrial circles as the most im- portant step toward the establishment of a really great manufacturing district in Jefferson county, that has, been taken since the entrance here of the United States Steel corporation.
 The Aldrich Plan
 ''The American Bankers association, whose annual convention was held in New Orleans last week, has definitely com mitted itself by practically unanimous vote in favor of the Aldrich plan for a National Reserve association. The the ory of the plan is unquestionably sound, as it seems to fully meet present condi- tions, and when enacted into law will give us a system of bank reserves Tar su- perior to the present one. It will enable these reserves to be effective at all times, and will, it Is thought, avert the mone- tary crises, known as pancs, which have occurred in this country at intervals av- eraging 20 years. It is hardly probable, however, that any definite action will be taken on the proposition by the pres ent Congress, which has it's hands full with the tariff and trust problems so there is ample time for full discussion of this very important subject. We be- lieve that the present plan IS not gen erally understood in the south, nor do we think that it is now regarded With favor by the great body of the southern people. but we believe that it will uiti- mately be enacted into law without any material mOQlHcatloHS, anu 'h"' "iio- it is understood by the people, 1t Will be generally approved by them The money power of the country, under the present system, is centered in the hnan- cial district of New York, known as Wal street, and the National Reserve associa- tion. whose ownership will be distributed among banks in all sections of the coun- try, is intended to hold this power In the future. A prominent New York bank CT recently made the remark while In Birmingham that he expected the estab- lishment of the National Reserve associa- tion to reduce the deposits of the banks of New York by at least $50o00o,0oo In the absence of any constructive legisla- ticn, it is to be hoped that Congress will extend for a period of two years at least
