to prescribe how cotton seed should

Columbia, Nov. 2O.-John l.. Nc
Laurln, State warehouse commission

house receipts more valuable than
those issued py independent storage
corporations. This information was
carried in telegram from Wade
Stackhouse, Nj. D., president of the
South Carolina division of the Cotton
congress. The message was sent from
Washington, and read:
Il showed your warehouse receipts
to several business men in New York.
The cashier Of the National Park bank
and others told me they thought yo,.,
receipt would be much more valuable
than local receipts and they thought
it would be well worth the extra cost
of getting your receipt"
At the request Of Senator McLaurin,
DR.. Stackhouse took the State ware
house act and copies Of all the blanks
to New York, for the purpose Of sub
mitting them to capitalists and others.
DR.. Stackhouse has a standard ware
house at Dillon full Of cotton, which
will entail some expense in unpacHin;
and grading to meet requirements of
the State and wished to see if it would
pay to do this.

MORE VESSELS ARE NEEDED.
Now That Cotton Has Been Declared
NOn-Contraband Shipping Facilities
Should be Provided.

From The Daily Item, Nov. 20.
Senator Smith in an interview in
Columbia yesterday discussed the cot
ton situation in regards to fOrei2n
trade. He said that in view of the
fact that England, as we'll as the
other countries at war, have declared
cotton to be non-cOntraband. it seems
that the situation could be greatly re-
lieved if the American government
would use every means within it's pow
er to obtain vessels for transporting
cotton to the different countries.
Senator Smith announced that he
had received several letters from for
ciEn correspondents bearing on the
cotton situation. \ correspondent
from Germany stated that in spite of
tho War German mills would possibly
consume as much American cotton as
ever, il not more, if the supply could
DC obtained. a Russian correspond
"nt indicates that were transportation
facilities available. Russia also would
use her usual quota of American cot
ton.
Il intend to use these letters said
Senator Smith, "bcforc the proper au-
thorities in Washington, in order to
expedite the perfection of transporter
tion facilities"
