vehicle highways traversing a country
One-fourth as large as Europe-narrow
highways hemmed in by impenetrable
wilderness-and one may form some

of the Montgomery Conference, when
1 assumed the gaveI, that business
principles should be applied to
the marketing OF Americas
chief export commodity. I have rea-
lized that the East, and indeed, all
American commerce, is dependent
upon cotton, for unless the banking
interests can have cotton to deliver
to Europe they must. perforce, send
over gold
Il have time and again proclaimed
that no commodity in the world has
ever been sent to The markets of the,
world with so great degree of
ignorance surrounding it as Ameri-
am cotton. That Is literally true,
and the time has come for the pro-
ducers themselves to. come to an un-
dersranding Of the situation, and any
plan that is economically sound, to
awaken to their own opportunity,
