WASHINGTON HAS
NO COTTON PLAN
AGREED TO ATTEMPT LEGiSLA-
TON TO SECURE EASY LOANS
ON THE COTTON SURPLUS.

WASHINGTON Southern governors
and congressman concluded a series
of conferences here Tuesday without
determining upon any definite plan
for the relief Of cotton planters from
the conditions growing out of the Eu'
ropean war. While they resolved that
next years cotton acreage should be
materially reduced no specific means
of curtailment were agreed upon.
The conferees agreed to attempt to
secure federal legislation that would
enable planters to obtain loans from
the banks on their surplus crop. while
prompt action was urged upon the
warehouse bill pending in the house
and upon the Senate bill proposing the
repeal of the 10 per cent tax on state
banks which participate in the amend
ed Aldrich-vreeland emergency cur
rency act. They determined to at
tempt to maintain cotton prices above
10 cents pound and committee
was named to submit the conference
resolutions TO President Wilson.
The resolutions unanimously adopt
ed are:
Resolved, That it is the sense OF
this conference:
THAT the acreage of cotton to be
cultivated in the United States In
1915 shall be materially reduced. That
TO accomplish this end every legili-
mat means shall he employed.
THAT the members of this confer
ence shall make every possible effort
to secure federal legislation which
will enable the producers OF cotton to
obtain loans of public funds deposited
in the banks at reasonable interest
rate.
Resolved. That it be the sense ~
this meeting that there be established
bv Joint resolution in the House OF
Representatives and the Senate Of the
United States commission LOOKING
to the ensions OF the consumption
and marketing of cotton goods and
that Senator Hoke Smith prepare sucn

Resolved. That II Is the sense Of
this conference that the House OF
