FEDERAL AID IS NECESSARY
Cotton States Face Situation Unpre-
cedented in Modern Times-Co-
operation Is Essential.

eRv HARvIE JORDAN. President Of
Southern Cotton Association. Atlanta,
Ga.)
Not since the days of the Civil war
have the co5t6n~lgates faced a condi-
tion so serious as that which at the
present time confronts the handling
and marketing of the cotton crop of
1914
Because Of the existing conditions
between the five great nations of Eu-
rope which so largely consume Amer
lean cotton, with their ports closed,
business paralyzed, and commerce
stagnated, situation is presented un-
precedented in modern times.
There is no demand for lotion at
this time in any of our markets, while
all of the exchanges are closed. If the
movement of the crop is restricted by
limited demand, very low prices will
ensua unless arrangements with the
federal government are promptly per-
fected to finance large portion OF the
crop in storage until European peace
is declared Cotton must be held off
SldSuduL uldI hSL. CAC~ al eAO ~
the extent of several hundred million
dollars is imperative. Such an emer-
gency fund could be handled through
the banks operating in the cotton belt
and loaned against receipts ilsued for
cotton stored and insured in bonded
warehouses at a fixed price per pound,
basis middhng. This would provide a
stable market for such cotton as is re-
quired by mills in unaffected consuIn-
ing centers, and values for the staple
main aimed while the industrial life
OF the South would go forward unham-
pered
United effort on the part of all the
people is imperative at this time Sys-
tematic cooperation was never more
essential. The cotton situation, while
grave, can be handled with safety to
the growers of the South if prompt and
systematic plans for financing the crop
temporarily are adopted and put into
execution throughout the 500 cotton
growing counties Federal aid is abb
solutely necessary. When peace is de-
clared normal conditions will prevail
and profitable values be maintained.
