.780,OO0 BALES IS | ALABAMA ESTIMATE
Total Acreage Is 2,870,OOO and Condition 67 Per
 Cent Normal
By FRED H. GORMLEY
 Montgomery Bureau The Ase- Herald
 22l-2 First National Bank Building

Montgomery, July 3.-(Special. )-Ala- bama will furnish the market with about 7S0, 900 bales of cotton in 1920, according to estimates of the Alabama cooperative crop reporting service, announced Satur- day, following confirmation from Wash ington. This estimate was based on re- ports which showed that the total acre. age of cotton growing on June 25 was 2,S7O,000, and that the condition of the crop was 67 per cent of normal.
 The acreage this year is barely per cent less than that planted last year. The greatest decrease in acreage has occurred in the western part of the black belt, this decrease being due to wet weather and scarcity of farm labor. The report said it was evidently the intention of cotton farmers to increase their acreage, pu' this was prevented by labor and weather conditions.
 Marked improvement was shown in the condition of the crop between May 9 and June 25 because of favorable weather con- ditions. The condition of the crop this year is about the same as that at the same period of last year, but is about iz points below the average for ten years The forecast of the cotton crop at this time last year was 837, 900 bales, or 57.ovt more re~than the estimate this year. The total bales gathered last year wert 712 GOO

BEGIN
 FINAL ARGUMENT. Concede Need of Increased Revenue By Roads, But
 Differ on Method
sv Associated Prsss

Washington. July 3.--Concluding arguments on the applications Of the railroads of the country for increased freight rates to net an additional oii- lion dollars revenue were begun today before the interstate commerce com mission by representatives of shippers. Shippers generally conceded the need for increased revenues by which the roads might give adequate transporta = tion service but differed as to methods for providing the return. Increases m passenger rates to eaualize the bur den were advocated. Some shippers protested against an increase in rates calculated on a percentage basis' pre- ferring flat increases.
 R. e. Fulbright of Houston. Texas representing the Southwestern Indus trial Traffic League. advocated sep arate agreement asked by the carriers of the southwest as distinct from the western classification vcrritory, ot which they are part.
 c. E. Cotterill of Atlanta. represent ing the Southern Traffic League argued that while the railroads or the south should be granted increases, the application for 31 per cent advance asked by those roads was entireiy too high. He claimed the roads or tne south were in better financial cohoi : tion than the railroads of the norta' which are seeking only 30 per cent.
