URGES SUSPENSION
OF RETIREMENT LAW
Daniels Wants All Navy OFFICERS
Kept in Service This
Year.
From The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, July 2.-The urgent
need for retaining the services of every
available naval officer has caused Sec
rotary Daniels to ask the President not
to grant applications for voluntary re-
tirement this year. About twenty Off
GERS Of the rank of commander and
lieutenant commander applied for re
tirement under the personnel law OF
1899.
Section of this law provides that
when fewer than forty junior grade
lieutenants are promoted during the
fiscal year the President may az his
discretion accept applications for re-
tirement, in order 10 keep promotions
at a normal flow The Navy Depart
ment, however, is taking no chances of
a shortage of officers, especially as an
adverse opinion of Attorney General
Gregory on the question of resigna-
tions may at any moment precIpitate
the withdrawal Of a number OF officers
who have offers from ammunition man
ufacturers.
One of the reasons assigned by the
department for suspending the applca-
ton Of the personnel law is that pro-
motion TO the higher grades is now
made at too early an age in most
cases. The department has prepared a
bill for the next Congress providing
for proper distribution of officers in
the respective grades and for their
promotion at more mature age and
after longer experience than at present.

MOVES TO PREVENT
SLUMP IN COTTON
Federal Reserve Board
Urges Southern Banks
to Protect Growers.

Washington, July "A strong hint
TO the four Southern Reserve banks TO
BE- liberal in loans secured by cotton,
with the advice that a proper use Of
the loanable resources Of the banks,
with the use of cotton warehouslng
facilities now possessed by the South,
would avert any danger Of repetition
of last years conditions, was given IN
a letter sent to-day 10 the banks by
Governor Charles S. Hamlin of the
Federal Reserve Board.
Governor Hamlin is chairman Of
committee 10 study the cotton ques-
ton with a view TO preventing any
such condition as arose last year, when
Southern Representatives delayed the
adjournment of Congress in an effort
to force the government to buy cotton
at 10 cents a pound ito save the
South"
Experts on the committee estimate
that the entire crop this year will not
be more than 100000 bales, against
nearly 1900. 900 bales last year. This
is due partly 10 reduced acreage and
largely to the fact that the cotton
planters, owing 10 the low prices for
cotton. were unable 70 buy fertilizer
in sufficient quantity. The reduced
acreage was due 70 efforts made by
The Department of Agriculture, which
desired that more foodstuffs and less
cotton be raised in the South to reduce
the cost Of living.
While a 12,OO0,000 bale crop would
ordinarily mean big prices for cotton
ard a sharp demand, it is not at all
certain it will mean this this year,
eince the British Orders in Council
Virtually have cut off Germany from
any supply of the staple. So effective
ha, been the blockade that orders have
been issued in Berlin that no more
cotton fabrics be woven, so as TO con
serve the supply Of cotton for eXplo-
sives. The South, therefore, cannot
look to the big German cotton mills
10 take any Of their cotton this season,
nor even 10 the German munitions
manufacturers, since the blockade prob
ably will prevent any cotton from get
ting through. A 100000 bale crop
thus presents a serious problem, de-
spite the increase in home manufacture
of cotton.
"The Federal Reserve Board" says
Governor Hamlin's letter, realizing the
possibility of a congestion of stocks OF
cotton this fall, due 70 abnormal condl-
tons in our export trade. desires full!
information regarding the facilities IN
YOUR district for warehousing and
financing the cotton which would under
ordinary conditions be exported. The
board he's, therefore, appointed COM
mittee to study the question and gather
data on the subject.
"The board feels that, in view OF the
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-07-03

large surplus reserves now hell by the
banks throughout the country, there
should be no difficulty, so far az the
financial ability of the country IS con-
cerned, in providing for necessary ad-
vances upon that part Of the crop which
will eventually be shipped abroad. Il
appears from data in hand that the de-
mand for our domestic manufactures
of cotton goods is increasing, and it
seems to the boards committee that
there is no occasion whatever for
depression in the price OF raw cotton
such as was experienced last fall The
committee believes that arrangements
should be made TO assure producers Of
cotton of the cooperation Of merchants
and bankers in the proper handling Of
the crop.
"In this connection attention is called
10 the estimate by the Department OF
Agriculture that the South now has
warehouse capacity of 9.66+.OO0 bales.
If proper use is made Of this capacity
and Of the loanable resources OF the
banks, including both members and
non-members of the Federal Reserve
system, gradual marketing OF the
crop will be entirely possible, and any
danger of a repetition Of last years
conditions will be ayerted.
"The writer. as chairman Of the
boards committee, would be glad %
have your views on this subject. and IS
anxious to secure your cooperation IN
formulating plans 10 reassure and pro-
tect the farmers, merchants and others
interested in our cotton growing IN
dustry."
