GOT TON
Culture in Africa for the Needs
of All France Urged by
Deputy.
nr AaseerA1Ge saEsn

PARIS, France, April France
might easily declare her independence
in the cotton growing industry and
cease the yearly tribute" Of $SO,OOO,-
900 for imported cotton, chiefly from
the United States, according to Laur-
ent Bonnevay, who led recent debate
on the Moroccan budget in the Cham
Der of Deputies.
He declared that if France developed
the cotton lands of Northwest Africa
it could produce all the cotton needed
for French requirements, and export
to other manufacturing countries.
NJ. Bonneyay gave the results OF an
inquiry made by NJ. Lamba, an agr1-
cultural expert who studied the cotton
growing possibilities of Tunis, Algeria
and Morocco. NJ Lamba found that
cotton of an inferior quality was al
ready grown in some sections of these
countries, and he was convinced that
cotton culture could be made as re-
munerative there as in Egypt which
now. grows 500, 600 bales.
Nj. Bonnevay said the French con-
sular agent at IIl-Ksa had imported
Egvptian cotton plants and obtained
excellent results. Several French
officers Interested in the agricultural
development of Morocco had also ex-
perimented with cotton culture at out
living French coasts with great success.
NJ. Bonnevay, had no doubt that cotton
would become the most valuable ex-
port of Morocco
