McLaurin Has Hopes for Forcing Good Price;
In 1915.

Former Senator J. l.. McLaurin OF
South Carolina, referred TO by Gov.
Cole Blease last night, as the best
posted man in the world on the cotton
situation" thinks the southern farmer
can close up shop next season and make
money.
Gov. Blease declared Senator Nc
Laurin has made more exhaustive
study OF conditions than any other man
ir the country. he will speak for Gov
Blease if South Carolina's plans for re-
lieying the situation are asked for at
today's conference.
ssThe Aldrich-V act has prov
en- failure and has not accomplished
what the secretary of the treasury led
the people Of the south to expect when
the Cotton Congress was held at Wash.
ineton in August" said Senator Nc
Laurin last uighs at the Chisca. "The
new currency act can take advantage
OF it through state bonds to the extent
of taxing up the distressed cotton and
providing for the needs of the domestic
mills at 10 or II cents pound.
'sIf this is done, it would FIX a bor-
rowing value for cotton at about eight
cents, which would be sufficient 10 liq-
uidate the expenses incurred in raising
the crop.
s'The trouble will not be eliminated,
however. until the farmer learns the
lesson of diversi6cation. A partial re-
duction of cotton acreage next season
will not fill the bill. If the cotton ac-
reage is only partially reduced there
will still be surplus and prices will
sag and hit the bottom.
SAT recent conference in New Or
leans, Harvie Jordan, quoting Hester,
said the visible and invisible supply of
cotton CO September /, was 6,23S, 900
bales. The present crop on hand, ac-
cording to q Federal government re-
port, indicates 100000 bales. MY
own opinion is that it will not be under
16,000000 bales. To the present
crop and supply on September /, add
1000. 900 bales raised IN India, Egypt
and other foreign countries, which
would give total of 2S, 900, 900 bales.
THE consumption for the world is
estimated at IA, 100000 while the con-
sumption duri1. peace times is estima-
ted at 21,000,O00 bales. There fore
there will be from $4,000, 900 10 14,000,- :
600 bales to carry over in 1916. Thus
you will see that partial reduction of
next years crop will not have the de
sired effect.
1--WE in South Carolina are strongly
in favor of the total elimination of cot
ton next year. The farmer and plan.
ter should arrange scme way to hold
his cotton, raise corn and hogs and
keep down his own expenses, and in
his spare time 20 fishing. At the end
of the year. he will find that he has
made more money, great deal more
than if he had raised more cotton, for
then the cotton he has will be worth a
great deal more than if 1915 crop had
been raised. And he will have been
saved the expense of raising it and will
have had enough foodstuffs to have
kept him comfortably through the
year."-Memphis Commercial-Appeal,
Saturday.
