SAYS WORLD SUPPLY OF
COTTON IS THREATENED
Prof. Todd, British Expert, Urges
Economy in Use and Assurances
to All Growers.

BLACkPOOL, England, December l
Correspondence of the Associated Press.
Prof. John A. Todd one of the British
delegates to The world cotton conference
a New Orleans, in October last told the
Textile Institute the other day that the
worlds supply of cotton for the next
ten years was seriously threatened. He
saw indications that the scarcity of cot
ton would increase as the world capacity
to consume it returned to normal.
Prof Todd said the first step to be
taken should be to assure the grower of
a reasonable price to cover the cost OF
production and to reward him ade-
quately for growing improved cotton.
He pointed out that the present system
of marketing did not encourage the pro-
duction of better cotton, and insisted
that the British government might well
do great deal more tilan this to eX-
tend the cotton industry.
American Crop Limiting Factor.
He pleaded for rigorous economy in
consumption. The American cotton crop,
said the professor, was the limiting fac
tor in the worlds supply. This crop had
developed an extreme undesirable see
saw movement of acreage, crops and
prices. There had been five bad crops
in succession. with high prices accen-
tuated by world initiation.
Before the war, said the speaker, a
large part of the American growers were
on small margin of profit and when
prices did not pay they reduced their
acreage. This occurred during the war
and the acreage then lost had not since
been recovered. American acreage was
reduced in 1919. and. owing to- bad
weather, this years crop was "a disas-
trous failure and a calamity" The re-
suit was that prices had been forced up
to a very high level.
Cotton for Tires Alarms.
Europe and Asia are without stocks of
Il xlo Hl,n.
amount of cotton which the worlds minis
by destruction of machinery in the dew
astated regions of Europe and restric-
vastated regions of Europe and restric-
ton of the hours of labor, but these
conditions would not be permanent.
One thing which alarmed him was the
enormous deelopment of the use or mo-
tor cars in America, with a consequent
demand for 900 bales of staple cotton
for fabrics in tires. This demand ex-
listed at time when the whole world
supply of staple cotton, he said, had
been reduced to 100000 bales.

CAR RER0UT!NG
ASKEDBY CITIZENS
Brookland Organization Of
fers Plans for Betterment
of the Service.

ReroNting of cars from Brookland.
u. c.. to eliminate the long haul from
Brookland to Cabin John. Md. was
urged by speakers at a meeting OF
the Brookland Citizens Association
last night at Masonic Temple, 18TH
and Monroe streets northeast
w S. Ayers. chairman of the asso-
cations committee on street rail-
ways, presented report, in which he
said that passengers at the Brook
land end of the line frequently have
to wait for more than half an hour
for car because the cars are tied
up on the long run through the city
He said also that conductors some
times wait until past the time they are
scheduled to start and then try to
make up for the time lost by admon-
ishing passengers to step lively
please"
Mr. Hams View.
Mr.. Ayers said he had talked with
William r. Ham, president of the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company. regarding routing of many
of the North Capitol and w street cars
through to the terminal at Brookland.
He said that three out of four OF the
cars running north on North Capitol
street stop at the pit and then turn
around back to the city Mr.. Ham
told him. he said. that few cars reach :
ed the w street pit comfortably filled
Brookland would cause unnecessary
use of power and cause car conges-
ton.
A motion to ask the Capital Trac-
tion Company to route some OF It's
cars running west on Florida avenue
through U street to 18th street was
made by Miss NJ. Lynch and passed by
the association. Miss Lynch pointed
out that hundreds of pupils go to
school in the Mount Pleasant section
and have to transfer three and some
times four times to reach their des-
tination because the cars run down
18th street. The secretary was in
structed to take the matter up with
the Capital Traction Company.
Want Express Cars to Treasury.
Another motion proposing two ex-
press cars running from the Treasury
to Brookland at the suggested times
of AS and pm. was passed and the
secretary instructed to ask for its in
corporation in the car schedule.
The association went on record as
favoring the confirmation of DR.. John
Van Schaick. jr., by the Senate as
District Commi ssioner and voted to
hold a social and dance in place of the
regular meeting the second Friday in
January. Protest against the obstruc-
ton of 10th street northeast was made
and the Commissioners will be asked
to stop such obstruction.
One hundred and fortY-three new
, members were elected last night, and
President Wilson said he expected to
have 400 in a few months.

JUS. ARMY'S AIR SERVICE

NEW YORK, December 49, - Air

being charted by the Atlantic coats pa
troll of the United States Army air serv-
ice. according to Col. Archie Miller,
commanding the Mitchell and Hazel

twelve De Haviland and four bombers

Col. Miller said the flyers were Civ
ing an excellent demonstration of how
an Army airplane and pilot may be
utilized to advantage in time of peace.
An observer accompanies each De

said, has an increased gas carrying

Extension of the service to include

temptation. At present, while one
third of the first aero squadron peri
