SUGGESTS U. S.-BRITISH
COTTON VALORIZATION
Head of England's Master Spin
ners Wants Two Countries
to Take Our Surplus.

LONDON, Oct. Sir Charles Wright
NIAGARA. president OF the Federation of
the Master Cotton Spiners and Manu-
facturers Association. speaking at
luncheon Of the proposed institute OF In
dlIstry and Commerce to-day, suggested
that the British and American Govern
n.ents cooperate In a joint valorizatioh
effort to take over the surplus raw cot
ton in the United States and regulate the
prices OF raw cotton now and In the tu-
ture.
Sir Charles said that tho excess OF cot
ton now on the market as a result or the
cutting off OF the Continental outlet has
caused so great an uncertainty in prices
that buying is practically stopped. lie
said that the Lancashire mills must close
before hong and that the result Of the
situation would be the virtual destruction
of tho cotton industry in England and
the ruin uf many American planters. the
planters, he said, would give their land
over to other crops, and thus the world
supply In future years would be upset.
The crisis of 1904. caused by a short
age OF cotton, he said. could have been
averted had reserve supply been held
by the Governments.
He suggested that the two Govern
ments, by gathering cotton reserve
could protect the millions OF persons in
the various branches OF industry While
the project, he said. might involve be-
tween 5000. 00O,0 900 and s350.000.000
there would be little or no risk attached
to IT,
Earl Grey former Governor-General OF
Canada, and Sir George II. Reid, High
Commissioner for Australia were amone
those AT the meeting.

CALLS CONCRETE THE
BEST ROAD SURFACE
Noted Engineer, However, De-
tends Gov. Glynn's Shale
Brick Experiments.
TESTS NOT YET FINISHED

An engineer OF distinction who Is a
specialist on road building and who has
filled public Office in both New York city
and State. discussing yesterday for THE
SUN Gov. Glynn's programme for State
road construction, said that his views CO.
incided with those Of Col. Edwin A. Ste
vens, Public Roads Commissioner OF New
Jersey printed in yesterdays SUN.
"On the question OF road financing
believe Col. Stevens was quite right"
said this authority. land also be-
pavement is best for all roads-that
local conditions must generally decide the
bbest materiol for surfacing a road.
Gov Glynn has a brick plant az FL
mira which Is, understand. manufacture
Ing bricks of native shale for use in paw
ing. The tests OF this brick have not
been completed. Tests OF brick made
from nearby shale at Peekskill -on the
Hudson were unsatisfactory but there is
reason to believe that the shale at Elmlra
Is better suited to the purpose
The thing Is not far enough advanced
for a reasonable judgment TO be pro-
nounced one way or the other. II Is silly
to say that Gov. Glynn's project to make
brick OF New York shale with prison labor
wont work Wait and see.
Personally feel sceptical about It,
because private enterprise has not yet
succeeded in utilizing this New York shale
satisfactorily. II II held possibilities men
In the road business would not be likely
to have overlooked IT,
Now. frankly. brick pavement at
It's best is ideal. but the cost can go TO
tremendous totals. have In my own ex-
per,ence known Of brick road that cost
S52 600 mile Of this $i2 600 a mile
was the cost OF the brick surfacing. and
OF tina: sum about half was freight cX-
pense on the brick, which was brought
from West Virginia or Ohio or Indiana.
I don't recall WHITEHALL three States
supply fine brick. So. unless Gov. Glynn
succeeds in utilizing native shale. brick
I roads 10 any great extent may he out OF
the question for us. With imported brick
we should have to cut down very much
the amount Of road mileage constructed.

STRONG URGED FOR
RESERVE COUNCIL
Bankers Approve Idea-Want
Twelve Bank Governors
Picked.
NEW AGENT SUGGESTED

Benjamin Strong. Jr. recently elected
governor OF the Federal Reserve Bank OF
New York. Is being advocated as the
logical man for the place of advisory
councillor representing New York in the
Federal advisory council OF twelve mem
bers. Leading bankers who have been
in touch with the development OF the
Federal reserve system pointed out yes
terday that the best interests OF the New
York insttution and Its member banks
will he served by the formation OF an
advisory council made up OF the executive
heads OF the twelve reserve banks OF the
country.
The selection OF Mr.. Strong TO represent
New York In this capacity and the selec-
ton OF the governors OF the other reserve
institutions IL foreshadowed in the report
of the special committee appointed to
devise plans OF organization for the banks
II is there recommended that the execu-
tive heads OF the institutions be made the
advisory councillors.
The selection of advisory committee
member is regarded by New York bankers
as one or the most important matters In
the immediate consideration OF the re-
serve bank board here. Bankers pointed
out yesterday that the advisory council
was a feature OF the Federal reserve act
which was put into the act as a direct
result of the strong fight OF the bankers
OF the country for some direct representa-
ton In the management OF the new sys-
tenn.
banker said yesterday that the inter
relations of the reserve banks of the
country would he promoted very decidedly
by the election of twelve governors 10
the advisory council II was pointed out
that the New York reserve bank board
would he much moro ready TO discount
the notes of another reserve bank II the
head Of the New York bank could bring
from his councils with the Federal Re
Serve Board at Washington a direct pres
entatlon OF the need and the opinion OF the
reserve governors OF the country.
Approval was expressed by bankers
Yesterday OF the recommendation in the
report Of the committee Of experts that
in order to give vitality to the advisory
council n paid officer not a member OF
the council should he maintained at Wash
ington TO represent the council. II IL
recommended that this officer should eli
At least once week with the Fedora
Reserve Board and should keep the ad
yigory council, whose active duties II
their reserve centres would prevent then
from meeting with the Federal Reserve
Board. except at more infrequent periods
in touch with the operations OF the Ike
serve Board.
