| German Cotton
Shortage
Opinion of European Experts ON
Cotton Situation
WaShin@t(

Washington, March 24-Germany's
cotton shortage is estimated to be
4,5OO,0OO bales of 500 pounds each in
official dispatches based on the opin-
ion of European experts and made
public today.
When Germany began hostilities in
1914 the country had on hand only
about 100000 bales of raw and manu-
factured cotton, a supply sufficient
for two or three months. The pre-war
consumption had been 100000 bales
annually, much Of which was exported
but the cessation Of exports was fully
Offset by military needs, so that the
countrys requirements were not less
ened The stocks on hand were sup
plemented to the extent of 1900, 600
bales by seizures in invaded districts.
Many expedients were described as
having been used by the Central
Powers to obtain the staple through
neutral countries, and in the first three
years reasonably large quantities OF
cotton goods We're, imported in that
way German sources estimate that
600, 900 bales were purchased from the
United States, Scandinavia, Holland,
;l75,000 bales from Switzerland before
the blockade was made entirely ef-
fective I'D to the end Of 1917. The
amount obtained in 1918 was not
known.
A total of 100000 bales also were
acquired in Asia Minor and Russian
Turkestan Cotton purchased by Ger
man interests, which We're unable to
| import it from neutral countries, is es-
tinated at 100000 bales Of which
200, 900 bales are stored in Scandina-
via, Holland and Spain, and $4,000
bales in Switzerland.
Substitutes for cotton made from
paper, nettles, etc., were not very sue
cessful, and only 10 per cent Of Ger
many"s normal domestic cotton con-
sumption was met in taat way, accord
! ing to the estimates, or about 100000
bales in three years.
Based on the above information, il
was estimated that of Germany's
average need of 5000, 600 bales in
four years, only 3,5O0,0e0 bales had
been supplied.
In determining the cotton ration to
be supplied Germany. it was POINTED
out the loss of Alsace and Lorraine
must be taken into consideration
Those provinces included 25 per cent
of the spindle and loom capacity OF
the country, SO that the annual re-
auirements have been reduced to per-
haps 100000 bales. Virtually all
! factories were said to be in great need
of repair and a loss Of three or four
months working time was estimated
!! to be necessary to put the machinery
injured by working on substitutes. in
good condition.
The report pointed out that if Ger
many demanded that the shortage be
4; made up, she would be asking in eff
feet for one-fourth of the worlds an
nual production of 20,000.G00 bales.
