COTTON OF UNITED
 STATES QUALITY IS
 SCARCE ELSEWHERE
New Fields of Production Not in Sight Yet, Says
 Bureau

Washington, April 2S.--No large quantities of cotton with the quali- ties of the American product will be produced outside of the United States for many years, is the conclusion of the department of agriculture after a survey of most ppromising regions for growing the staple.
 "Even with the necessity both of protecting a domestic industry and of supplying an increased world de- mand, new fields of larger production are not in sight" says the report.
 ''The development of cotton grow ing along scientific lines has been in progress for number of years in different parts of the world; yet the production in foreign countries has done little more than hold it's own. The need for cotton with the characteristics of American has been uppermost in the minds of those in- vestigating the situation; but so far as the investigation could ascertain the total quantity produced in new regions within the last IS years ire quently has been equalled in a single county in the United States.
 Even if considerable quantities of cotton with the characteristics of American could be produced in other parts of the world it is req sonable to assume that the increas- ed use of cotton goods will take care of the available supply"

AMERICA FIRST IS
 ! PLAN OF PROPOSED 1 MARINE MEASURE
BubStitute for House Bill is Framed in the
 ls Senate

! Washington, April 28.--Establish-
 he4t of an America first policy for
 1het development of the American
 bepchant marine is provided in a bill
 lrAfted as substitute to the house shelchant marine bill by the senate 3ommerce subcommittee and made Ikuhiic today by Chairman Jones, who
 klans to report it to the full commit
 Tee tomorrow.
 < Coastwise shipping, the bill pro- Tides, must be entirely American
 owned while seventy-five per cent
 pf the stock of corporations engaged < n foreign trade must be held by American citizens. Sale of American
 ships to foreign interests would be Eprohibited by the bill without the ipproval of the shipping board which she act creates.
 g The bill also would prohibit the Interstate Commerce Commission
 from exceeding authority already eX. listing to grant preferential rail ana
 water freight raise on exports or i'm ports as we'll as passenger raise un- less American owned vessels were hsed. Upon the boards recommends lions, where American owned facll- |ities are adequate, the commission would be authorized by the bill, how ever, to suspend this section. In or Her to permit this discrimination, khe bill directs the president within ninety days from its passage to term
 mate treaties restricting the right of the United States ito impose discrim-
 mating duties OF tonnage dues on
 foreign vessels"
 HThis simply unshackles the Unit lhd States commercially so far as it's
 merchant marine is concerned and
 Will enableit to pass such laws as 1t
 may desire to pass for the encour-
 agement of the merchant marine,'
 Senator Jones said today. In provid- ling for the preferential rates he de- Sclared the bill only proposed a pol 3icy similar to that under which Ger amary, Japan and other countries shave built up their export trade and their shipping
 As already announced, the bill would place the present government zowncd merchant fleet under the di- 4rection of shipping board composed fof seven members which would be au- Ethorized to operate the ships under lcharter or otherwise and develop the foreign trade of this country through 1the establishment of new trade routes by means of privatet enterprise if |possible or through government op- |eration if necessary.
 The house bill directed the board |to sell the government owned mer- |chant ships as soon as practicable but the Senate bill provides that they shall be disposed of "as soon as prac- Eticable."

 PROMISED BIG
 C0ALSTATI0N

The Boring river coal fields may save the entire transportation sltu- ation in Alaska. according to advices reaching Seattle. Both the Alaska Steamship company boats and Copper River & Northwestern railroad may be burning coal from these fields before midsummer next. Already the Cordova market is promised 50 tons of coal every "A hours, and this may be increased sufficiently to take care of the railroad and steamship wants. With steadily increasing price of fuel oil the Alaskan Steamship company Hofficials announced some weeks ago that revenues providing for over a million dollars in additional costs of fuel oil for 1921 would have to be provided for.
 Falcon Joslin returned from the Katalla coal fields during the week. He reported his company was now constructing four miles of planked road to get coal to Boring lake from which point it can be barSed at high tide to Cordova. This coal will take care of domestic consump- ton.
 If the Joslin company successfully next few months then the Copper River X Northwestern railroad can extend a branch road 2S miles to load coal from the mine bunkers. This would allow the railroad to place loading bunkers at Cordova, which port would become the fueling point for all western Alaska steamers.
 Falcon Josln says it is slow work combating department red tape in developing coal leases in Alaska but his associates have not let obstacles stand in the way of eventually mak- ing Boring river coal fields produc- tive.
 Regarding the oil situation at Ka- talla, MT. Joslin is optimistic. He says the greatest obstacle to the opening of oil pools is the present leasing law, which in his opinon is not liberal or encouraging to the oil prospector. He believes, now ever, that congress will modify it to save endless delay and litigation Alaska Dispatch.
