nervousness, sleeplessness, etc, we

change.
I. ". Lawson OF Waco, Texas, pres
ldent OF the Texas Association of Cot
ton Exchanges, chairman OF the meet
Ing, was authorized to perfect the
national organization and to carry out
the plans Endorsed by the conference.
AS outlined by Mr.. Lawson. the ma
tional association will deal solely with
matters of national and International
Importance, principally the adjust
ment OF difficulties between the cot
ton producers and shippers of the
United States and the spinners and
takers OF cotton of Europe. The state
associations will have similar scope
within the states. No effort will be
made toward the fixing of a price
for the staple.
Organization will be perfected at a
meeting to be called by Mr.. Lawson.
at which it is planned to have repre-
sentatives present from every cotton
exchange in the United States.
Delegates to the European confer
ence, which will be held at Liverpool,
will be authorized to adopt a uniform
classification to govern the handling
of cotton both in the United Stat
and Europe, and to dispose of Il.
"tare" question and other matters in
controversy between the interests of
the two countries Assurances have
been given that delegates will be ap-
pointed by the European exchanges as
quickly as representatives from this
country are named, and that the
meeting will be held in time that the
rules adopted will apply to the dis
position of the 1913 crop 1t was
stated that only slight notifications
of rules already laid down by the for
eign exchanges will be asked
The men who met Monday, repre-
sentatives Of nearly all of the more
important cotton exchanges of the
country, came authorized to act, not
merely to confer" said Mr.. Lawson,
spokesman for the conference, which
was executive. AS a result plans
were formed for the immediate re-
vision of the method of handling the
cotton crop which will prove profit
able to all interests concerned, from
the producer to the consumer. The
different exchanges will be asked to
appoint delegates to the Liverpool
meeting at ence, and the next meet
ing of the national organization will
he called as quickly as practicable"
