BRITISH TOBACCO EMBARGO.

~ > "a, f-tsH - rsfst t1s1s ~ = = ses-sf
1t is the merest rot to talk of put
ting an embargo, by act of Congress,
on the expectation of war munitions
to Great Britain in retaliation for her
action in shutting off imports of to-
bacco, and such talk should receive
no consideration at the hands Of
growers. There is not the slightest
chance of anything of the kind being
done. Aside from its impracticability,
it would be an unneutral step; and, if
such a step were possible, it would
result in more harm than good.
The power to adopt means to solve
the situation lies with the growers
themselves and the sooner they real
ize it the better. Sometimes it takes
a catastrophe to reform methods and
the act of Great Britain in shutting
off altogether imports of tobacco
coupled with the serious difficulties
of selling to other foreign countries
may prove the blow that ultimately
will rebound to the prosperity of
growers of the export types of to-
bacco.
A year ago the South was the
bluest part of the country. 1t had
sold record-breaking crop of cotton
at ruinous prices. Today the South
is rolling in wealth, the transforma-
ton within year being one of the
marvelS of the present general pros
perity. 1t has been estimated that
the agricultural products of the South
last year possessed value of $780,
100000 greater than in 1914. It
planted less cotton and more of other
crops with the result that it received
a good price for the cotton and raised
almost enough corn and other crops
to feed itself. If it had stuck to a
full acreage of cotton it would have
remained in the slough of despond,
for exports during the present crop
year have run far behind the previ-
GUS year.
Tobacco growers of Kentucky and
Tennessee, who grow the export
types, can raise other crops than to-
bacco and they should take the 'bull
by the horns, as it were, and break
away from the old ways and diversi-
fly their crops and by doing so they
will place themselves in a position to
take John Bull by the horns on the
question of tobacco supplies later on.
By raising other crops the problem of
starvation prices may be solved.
Great Britain claims to have two
years supply Of tobacco on hand.
Her people are consuming almost as
much as they do under normal con-
ditions despite the high prices due to
the war tax, but she is selling less to
other countries. She is in need OF
breadstuffs and war munitions and is
experiencing difficulty in providing
ships to transport them. Ocean freight
rates are prohibitive on things that
can be dispensed with, and this situa-
ton will grow worse as long as the
war lasts. The prohibition against
imports of tobacco is a war measure
Let tobacco growers begin raising
other crops and reiuvenating the soil
and in time there will be demand
for tobacco and they will hold the
whip hand, for they will have become
independent of the foreign tobacco
buyer and he will have to pay prices
that will justify the farmer in raising
it-Louisville Times.
