Thru Monday and Tuesday OF
last week when the Louisiana
Press Association WAS holding its
business sessions, New Orleans
our beloved metropolis, fully
lived up to and even overtopped
her we'll established reputation
for hospitality.
Following the opening session
at 10 o'clock Monday in the AS
ISOLATION of Commerce Building,
areception was rendered by the
International Typesetting Ma
chine Co., refreshments being
served and a souvenir pin pre-
scented to each lady and a watch
fob to the gentlemen.
Another business session was
held in the afternoon, and at 4:3O
we found ourselves in the tender
care of E. G.. Palmer & Co., who
proved veritable princes in their
lavish entertainment. An auto
mobile tour Of the old French
quarter and all the principal
streets, parks and drives OF in.
terest in the City was concluded
at the Southern Watch Club
West End at $50 o'clock and al
ter a half hours social mingllng
of guests an elaborate banque
was served which did honor t.
even such lordly hosts as b. c
Palmer and Go.
The tediousness of the secon(
days business was relieved by
most enjoyable Harbor Trip will
luncheon on boat complimentar.
of New Orleans Publishers AS

The festivities were concluded
Tuesday night by a smoker wit
Vaudeville entertainment and re

So much for the social featul {

intellectual feast5 and beneicl;
results of the business session
which were presided over by Pc

ever been made at one meetil

had.
Mr.. Frantz retired under pc

The Point Is, Get For Cotton
What 1t Is Worth.

If cotton is to go abroad anu f>
fetch only six or seven cents d e
pound it will be little better than
giving it away. a
The effort should be to SO az 4
range that cotton need not be t
sold under a fair price.
Judging from the actual crop t
conditions and from the norman
demand, this years crop sho"lu
be easily worth upward OF l.
cents.
Cotton is an easy thing to
identify. It is non-perishable.
Age does not make it stale 1t IS
easily warehoused. 1t does not
heat. 1t does not mold. 1t does
not rot 1t is safely insurable'
It is, more easily turned INTO
money in normal times than any
Iother article produced III the
United States.
Because of the future contracts
which many of our sapient poll
ticians denounce, a bale OF cot
ton can be marketed any day IN
the year.
The future business having
gone to pieces now is one of the
reasons of the prospective sigma
! ton.
Our effort should not be so
much to sell the cotton as to be
able to finance the cotton and TO
hold the cotton until the time
; when it would fetch u reasonable
price.
If Germany, France and Eng
land could import cotton during
: the war their factories could no
n manufacture it because the ell
Gent labor would probably be il
5 the army.
U They could not sell it abroa'
r because of disturbed trade con
U ditions.
II If the domestic mills could bu
} and manufacture all the cotton
h they could not sell all the clotI
II at once.
L The domestic mills will surel
d consume all they can if they ca
b, get it at very low price, becaus
l. Just as much capital as they ar
g able to command they will put i
ct cloth and hu.l it until the war
TO over.
I. Let the government OF tn
United States issue certificates
I'd all the cotton when it is war
a housed.
tn Then let the government iss'
~ a cotton currency against the
IS receipts. Let this currency
OF based upon so much per bale
The owner of the warehouse T
ed ceipt can exchange his receipt t
TN this currency. Then when t
e" war is over-whjch it will be
he four or five months-this cott'
can be released and sold.
es From the beginning it shou
he be announced thai no colt
ial would be sold for less than
INC cents a pound middling.
or If "a domestic mill desired
