SOUTHERN GOVERNORS
MEET IN WASHINGTON
Discuss Plans to Relieve the
Cotton Planter.
A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.
Southern Governors and AgriCul-
tural Officials Confer With

COnyresSneu.

Congressmen.
Washington, Sept. 26.-Curtail-
ment of cotton production next year
because of the huge amount of the
1914 crop remaining on hand
through the suspension of the Euro
pean market was discussed today by
governors and congressional delega-
conference committee consisting of
senator and two representatives.
from each state were selected to
meet with the governors later in tho
day and devise formal plan for ac-
complishing crop curtailment.
The morning meeting showed
there is some difference of opinion
as to whether legislation should be
state or federal. Senator Hoke
Smith, of Georgia, and several other
congressman held that each state
should act for itself, passing laws
that would limit next years crop to
so per cent of the 1914 yield Many
of the governors, however, believed
federal law should be enacted tax
ing excessive production either by
the pound or by the acre.
The preliminary conference was
expected to complete IT'S work in
time to present a plan to the open
meeting tonight, which will be at
tended by all congressman from the
cotton states, officials of the depart
ment of agriculture and other gov
ernment representatives.
A plan for federal taxation al
ready has been formulated by some
Southern congressman which would
fix tax of 10 cents a pound on all
cotton produced in excess OF half the
1914 crop. Another proposal was a
tax of $40 on each acre planted in
cotton in excess of so per cent of the
1914 acreage. Both proposals have
had many supporters, but it was not
indicated at the preliminary confer
ence which would be favored in the
final plan.
Washington, Sept 2S.-SeveraI
Southern governors and agricultural
officials conferred with congressman
here today over plans for relieving
financial stringency due to conditions
in the cotton marker. Specific rem
edies will be considered at a general
conference tonight.
