said, however, should cool weatherS;
continue long the crop would be pes
riously menaced. y
He declared the 1915 crop, taking
all conditions into considerations 10
they are today, will sell for about 8
cents. He assigned the reason for
the low price to the surplus on hand.
from last years crop and the uncer-
tainty Of business conditions in the.
next twelve months.
There are 2,751,000 bales Of cot
ton in warehouses in various parts OF
the South, MI. Cockrum said, being
held because Of the impossibility Of
the expectation Of the product
abroad to neutral ports, on account
of the British embargo order.
Surplus To Cut Price.
"This surplus Of last years crop.
he explained, "will, Of course, make
our crop for this year, in the aggre-
gate, considerably higher than wees.
timated some months ago. It is Sc
rious situation the country is facinga
and especially the South, when we
are forced to hold this product here
until another nation sees fit to per-
NIT us to send it to the foreign MAJ

"The United States Government
appears in a dilemma as to what to
do at this moment with Great Britain
on this embargo question. In my
opinion, it is either go to- war and
run risk of being able to hold our
own or sit still and take the medicine,
as it is now being offered us. It is
my personal opinion that the United
States should demand its right Of
freedom of the seas for its interna-
tional shipping" .
Mr.. Cockrum represents 17,461
in the South, who operate
$4,000 gins, about 1000 Of which are,
by licensed oil companies,
the remainder being run along inde-
pendent lines. He expects to organ
ize the State association Friday and
Saturday, with a membership of
about 500.

In fact, beginning with Kansas city
four or five years ago. half a dozei
large cities in the country. including
Cleveland. have in their new charters
definitely set apart social activities

will endeavor in each ease to discover
the underlying reasons behind poverty
and destitution wherever possible, and
Will attempt TO emovc the cause. II
the cause is sickness II viii. seek to
provide the necessary medical treat
ment or hospital care. If the cause
is unemployment 1t vii seek through
existing channels to find the necessary
work. II the cause is desertion or
abandonment an effort VIII b. made
through every possible channel to find
the dsserter and compel him to re-
sumo his respo: sibility. So far as
possible the bu-eIu. will aim 10 keep
families together rather than to have
them broken up.
The third reason for the establish
ment Of the bureau is to protect the
city from impostors and to stop the
practice of filing up private and pub
lice institutions at the city's expense
with persons who are not properly
entitled to pubic charities
The various kinds OF social inves-
legations which will be taken up by
the new bureau, with the numerical
importance Ct each as shown by the
statistics OF 1914, are as follows:
Families applying for the COM
mitment OF children to private

The Department Of Charities said
Mr.. Wilson. for a long time has had
the function Of investigating children
who are placed in institutions and
orphan asylums paid for by the city,
1t Is responsible both for the board OF
these children in the institution and
for the decision as to whether a child
shall be removed from its W home
and placed In an institution.
This function has been performed
through a special bureau for depend
ent children. whose visitors, in maxi
ing their Investigations, are now con-
cerned primarily with the question as
to whether the family could provide
for the children at home. Similarly
the Department OF Charities has to de-
termine whether a patient should he
received in M Of the private hospitals
paid for by the city, or saould he ac-
cepted as city charges.
Here again Is a separate set OF
visitors representing the city in maxi
ing these Investigations. Formerly
the concern of these visitors was pri-
marily to pass upon the condition
presented by the sick person who
needed hospital care. The two types
of Investigations might have been
made for the same family by two diff
ferent investigators within a very
short time; yet the facts ascertained
in one investigation were o avail
able for the other without considerable
difficulty.
