Contract Fair TO All.

This Hill compes by law the use by
cotton Exchanges Of contract tho quo
tations OF whose value shall reflect ac-
curat.y and truly the value Of spinnable
cotton. 1t furnishes for such markets
"A contract that is fair 10 all interests
producer and Consumer alike.
by enforcing the use of official Gov
eminent standards, commercial differ
euces and the prohibition against delivery
upon contract of unspinnable cotton will
In my opinion enhance the value OF these
contracts not less than s. a bale, which
rcfocting themselves in the value of the
spot cotton will mean 100000. 0h0 an
nuai increase in the value Of our cotton
crop.
since We export approximately two
thirds of our cotton crop. this will en-
nance the value OF the cotton and will
add between $4,000, 900 and $50, 600, 900
annually to the value ~ our export
trade"
