Condition of Cotton Crop 69.6

New York, Aug. 29.-August is
generally a month of deterioration
for the cotton and the 2,O40 reports
received from special correspondents
of an average date August
%, show decline of 81
points, compared with a loss of 1o.l
points a year ago and 6.6 points in
1915. The severe decline in Texas
of IA points is wholly responsible
for the loss, since all other States
show gains, with the exception OF
Florida and South Carolina, which
remained unchanged.
Both Mt. Whitney and Salton sea
the highest and lowest points, re-
spectiyely in the United States-are
in California.

PLAN HOME GUARD.
Organization of Regiment Under Way.
Baker to Cooperate.

Columbia. Aug. 31.-The organiza.
ton of a regiment of State militia fo1
service solely within the limits of the
State, will be taken up by Governor
Manning in conference with the Sec
retary of war and governors of New
jersey, Maryland, Delaware and Vir-
ginia at an early date. Preliminary
steps have already been taken and
the matter has been brought to the
attention of the war college in Wash
ington.
The committee comprising the pro-
posed regiment will be formed only
in those communities which are anX-
ious to form such organizations and
which will guarantee to give them
financial support. The officers will
be designated and appointed by the
governor. The arrangements SO far
made are purely tentative and are
contingent upon the approval of the
secretary of war and the assistance
of the federal government.
The general plan is to organize a
regiment of infantry, the members OF
which will subscribe to oaths render
ing them subject to the orders of the
governor for use solely within the
State The president will also have
authority to call upon them for serv-
ice. but only within the borders OF
the State to which they belong. The
organization parallels the status of
the militia under the Dick law of the
national government, which was
superseded by the national defense
act of June 5, 1916.
The same conditions we face
confronts the authorities of 9TH
er States," said governor Man
ming today There is very
apparent need for the State
authorities to have at their command
a mobile force for use solely within
each State. The organization OF
Home Guards would not be a
sufficient check as they could be used
only in the localities in which they
are formed. Furthermore, there is
some doubt as to how far the federal
government would go in extending
recognition to them in the matter of
equipment.
with the State militia, however,
which would have its central body of
control, the probability is that the
government will extend recognition
and render the necessary assistance
after the regular army, the National
Army and the federalized National
Guard have been equipped.
81 intend to go to Washington IN
the near future when I shall present
the matter in full to the secretary of
war and obtain from him such
assurance as the war college has
seen fit to grant"
