WEEKLY REVIEW OF COTTON MARKET

New Orleans, June 3.--In the cotton market this week the net result was an advance Of to 15 points. Prices held up very well in the face of the bureau reports on condition and acre. age. Both of these reports were bearish, although that on acreage was not so much so as expected The high prices were made on Thursday and the low prices on Monday. At the highest prices were 19 to 22 points over last weeks close; at the lowest they were 1 to 3 under. The range was over 21 to 23 points.
 The crop reports on Friday were the one big feature of the week. The re- port on condition Of SIS was higher than expected by about points. The report on acreage, showing an increase Of AT per cent more than pleased the bhils. They expected an increase of from to per cent. At the same time the increase made the total acreage 3a,O04,0oo. the largest area ever planted to cotton. This bearish feat did not es cape the statisticians
 The reason why prices did not fall ol the condition report was to be foun' in the weather returns. Since May 25 the date to which the condition repor carried the crop, conditions in the bel have steadily deteriorated, in the opin ion of most traders through high tenn. pcratures and drouth. This week the drouthe became more pronounced only Jew scattered showers falling over tEe entire cotton country. The alarm ing complaints coming from many sec- lions of the belt made shorts nervous and exceedingly weary about putting out fresh lines. On bureau day the re- port on acreage, to some extent, bal anced the report on condition but the bad weather prevailing was undoubted- ly the real reason why the condition figures fell flat as a bearish influence on the market.
 The week was a short one, since Sat- urday was a holiday in this market. This restricted trading on Friday to some extent.
 In the spot department prices lost 1-16c, middling closing at 15 7-16c against 15 1ac last week and 145sc this week last year. Sales on the spot amounted to 1858 bales against 37S0 last week and 2660 this week last year; sales to arrive amounted to 2603 bales against 366 last week and 1905 this week last year.

Will Help Consumers

William A, Scott, director of tl,e course in commerce and professor of political economy in the University of Wisconsin, expressing his conclusions that Canadian reciprocity would be of far-reaching ben eft to America, said
 My brief and imperfect survey of the clements of the problem before us Cana dian reciprocity), seems to justify the conclusion that consumers will be bene- fitted by reciprocity with Canada along the lines proposed, and that the magni- fude oI that benefit will be far greater than surface facts and study of presen conditions indicate.
 This is not | question 10 be settled on the basis of statistics or of exact data of any kind, It calls for a consideration of broad principles; it belongs within the realm of statesmanship, rather than in political loG-rolling or of careful bal ancng of petty interests.
 Since both Canada and the United States ar. exports of wheat and since it's value is determined by a world wi le market. it is possible. and, indeed quite probable. that the removal of the duty would not lower its price in our mar kets, except as certain kinds were af- fected by it's peculiar conditions. How ever, it might not follow that consumers in this country would not benefit from it. The by-products of wheat, such as bran, mddlings, etc, are not sold on worldwide basis, and with u greater amount of wheat to draw from, the great and economically managed mills would be able to work reduction through greater consumption and added rHofts from by-prodncts.

Benefits Are Mutual

Prof E. V. Robinson of the University of Minnesota, addressing the eopference on reciprocity today said in part:
 The fundamental fact underlying the argument for reciprocity is that the ben eits of commerce are ever mutual. Neither side gains at the expense of the otber: both gain in that their wants are better satisfied through the exchange of products than if each country endeayored to produce everything needed for it's own consumption The whole economic activi- ty of man. indeed, amounts to an attempt to supplement the spontaneous products of nature (which would support at most few score thousand savages in the whole continent of North America) through cooperative production, each man and each district producing what can be produced most economically and then exchanging their products, so that each profits by the natural resources and skill of all 'f

Professor Taussig Talks

Prof. F. W. Taussig of Harvard uni versity, spoke in favor of Canadian reci- procity. The speaker referred to the pro- posed agreement as affecting New Eng
 land particularly. He said in part:
 'The reciprocity arrangement now pending involves no far-reaching political and social question, no problems as to the way in which the industrial develop ment of two differing regions shall be shaped. It is like the trade between ad- joining farms. not like the trade between city and farm. If restrictions, though a possible source of annoyance and incon- venience, will cause no serious changes
 It's freedom will promote good feeling and mutual accommodation, but will not seri- ously affect the course of economic deyel- opment in either country. The notion that the farmers of the United States or of New England are going to be ruined, or seriously affected, is nothing less than preposterous. Even on the very border itself I doubt whether any perceptible number of farms will be disturbed in the slightest, or will have to readjust their ways For the farmers of the country as a whole. the effect will be as ripple on millpond.'

 that almost immediately upon the con- pletion of the Canadian agreement Germany will withdraw from us cer- tain of the minimum rates now en- joyed by the United States.
 "Germany, it is well understood, has made inquiries regarding the pr obable answer of the United States to a request for the extension of the lower rates of the Canadian agreement to her and is apparently prepared to carry her point to the logical extreme The question of England's position has already been raised in parliament and will also be pushed as opportunity fla Vors.

Scope Is Large

"I believe in the agreement not be- cause it is perfect, or even satisfactory In its scope, but because 1t is a step toward the establishment of those equitable trade relations with Canada which can be reached only by a very marked reduction if not actual aboli- ticn of tariff restrictions upon the mu- tual interchange of commodities.
 There is another aspect of the Can adian agreement, however, in which it constitutes an important innovation upon past and present commercial pol icy, and which suggests the introduce tion of a new attitude toward foreign ccur tries more in harmony with exist Ing conditions than the selfish and exclusive International position here tofore accepted by the United States The reciprocity agreement if adopted will without doubt be an important step toward the revision of our sys- tenn of international tariff treaties.
 That the United States would, with out a struggle, surrender its tradi- tional interpretation of the most fa- vored nation clause in our treaties is hardly to be expected. The question would, therefore remain whether the United States could refuse to open ne- gotlations for the extension of reel prCcity arrangements to other coun-
 tries which might demand such ar engagements.

Politics Says Hoard

In statement sent to the Western Economic society and read at todays session, at which reciprocity was dis cussed, former Governor Hoard of Wis consin declared that most of the oppo- stion against reciprocity with Canada was based on politics and that reciproc- ity would help the farmers. His state ment follows:
 Back of all this confusing cry, of clamoring politicians of high protection ists on one hand,1 and the insurgents looking for political advantage to their group on the other, lies the great basal recollection with me that always in the history of this country has the farmer prospered best when the manufacturer prospered best; when the great army of worl5men were employed and their fam
 flies consuming largely of the farmer S food. Never once have I seen agricul- ture prosper when labor was idle. For that reason I have faith that reciprocity with Canada will stimulate a demand for the products of labor this side of the line and, as day follows night, will it help the farmers.
 Already have the farmers been given a taste of declining prices for their food products. Do they like 1t? Do they want more of it? Then let them follow the counsels of those politicians who are fighting President Taft for political pur- poses only. and in my opinion they will get their fill of if
