the existing cotton condition by w.
B. Thompson, of this city, chairman
of the Louisiana division of the AM
erican Cotton Association, and a
prominent factor in a statement
made here.
The sharp comments of Mr.. Thomp-
son, who was formerly president of
the New Orleans Cotton Exchange,
were made in reply to statements
of w P. G. Harding, president of
the board of governors of the Fed
eral Reserve Board, who was quoted
as saying in an address in Birming-
ham that the board would not assist
in the holding of cotton for higher
prices.
Mr.. Thompson's reply was as fol-
lows:
"The press reports of statements
of Governor Harding, of the Federal
Reserve Board, at Birmingham, illus
trates the studied misunderstanding
of the issue which has marked the
attitude and utterances of the Federal
Reserve Board throughout its recent

Market Bureau Head
Makes Pertinent Re-
ply To Harding

ATLANTA, Oct. 11.-That the
Fedora Reserve Bank of the Allan
ia district is carrying at the present
time only $4,000,000 of agricultural
re-discounts, as compared with va
rious other rediscounts aggregating
$170,000,000, is asserted by L. 3.
Jackson, director of the state bureaus
of markets, in a statement issued
upon his return from Birmingham
where he appeared Friday before the
directors of the bank in this district
at meeting held in that city and
attended by w. P. G. Harding, gov
eronr of the Federal Reserve Board
in Washington.
As the result of Mr.. Jackson's ap-
pearance before the board, and of in
quiries put to him by others inter
ested in the cotton situation who
were in Birmingham for the purpose
of getting light on farm credits, Gov
ernor Harding gave out statement
in Birmingham Friday night in which
he declared;
''The idea that has gone broadcast
through the country that the federal
reserve banks can help the farmer Of
the South to hold his cotton for for
ty cents by financing the cotton crop,
or aid the farmers of the west to
get high price for wheat by rush
ing reserves to that section to bols-
ter up the wheat crop, is entirely er-
roneous."
Governor Harding then went. on to
say that the most effective means of
help for the Southern cotton grower
was self-help through the formation
of an export corporation to open the
closed markets of Central Europe
thereby making possible a big in
crease in cotton exports and reliev-
ing the cotton market as a whole of
an accumulated supply which is or
may be greater than it can absorb.
In this connection Governor Hard
ing made the statement that there
was money in the north to finance
such corporation, but he thought
the South should help herself, with
her abundant financial resources, and
let the North keep its money for
needs of its own.
1t is by way of reply to this state
ment issued by Governor Harding
that the statement of Director Jack
son of the market bureau, was Civ
en- out Saturday. The significant
portion of his statement, in which he

deflation campaign.

deflation campaign.
Governor Harding says that the
Federal Reserve system was not :
tablished to assist plans for holding
commodities off the market, nor is il
at the disposal of speculative enter
prises organized to advance private
interests.
"The attitude of the Federal Re-
serve Board always presupposes that
the movement of the cotton produc-
ers to hold cotton in the present
crisis was an attempt to profiteer or
to extort unreasonable profits, and
thereupon it declares its righteous
determination not to aid in such ne
farious undertaking.
''The truth of the matter is that,
due largely to the deflation policy or
rather to the assault with intent to
debate activities of the. said board,
there is really no market for cotton
in the true sense of the word, and
the cotton producer is struggling, not
to extort anything from anybody, but
to save his economic life"

TWO THOUGHTS SUGGESTED BY GREY LETTER.

~ wo thoughts suggested by the letter Of Lord
Grey approving the reservations TO the League Of
Nations covenant
one is that he thinks America, in her own interest,"
should make the reservations and that the other nations
should not object 1
The other is that perhaps Lord Grey is seriously op-
posed TO the reservations but is so anxious to get
America into the league that he is willing to accept the
reservations in order TO accomplish the greater end.
lie may hope that having entered the league with
reservations the American representatives may be in
duced TO disregard the reservations.
Whichever view is correct. his letter dscredits the
diplomatic ability Of the who supposed TO
represent American interests at the peace conference
