unanimously passed at a meeting Of

Under plans now in formative stage

Last year similar meeting was

successful was that committee in car.
rying out the work assigned to 1t that
requests have been received from all
points Of the compass for the com

1t is being pointed out that enough
acreage was planted this year, not
withstanding reduction estimated by
the government at about % per cent
compared with year before. for crop
of 100000 bales with an average
yield per acre. Boil weevil and other
unfavorable factors were responsible
ior less than average yield per acre.
There is not now any suggestion ot
further reduction in acreage, but II
is proposed to emphasize the hazard
to the cotton grower Of crop exceed

condition Of Europe somewhat recov

also to remind the. grower that It Is
very hazardous to rely upon the grow

DOES NOT TOUCH DETAILS
Some Arguments On china's ~Polnts~

General Terms, Pledge Their
Best Protection.

Washington.-A joint declaration oe
policy toward China, based on terrific
rial and administrative integrity, eco
nomic opportunity, an enforced open
door, and the abolition Of "speci0
rights" has been agreed upon by ~
the nations represented IN the arms
conference.
The first definite agreement to CONS
out Of the conference. the delegation
touchs in general terms r.lost Of the
principles for which China asked IN
her bill Of rights" but does not Pre-
vide in detail for the settlement Of
the specific problems with which she
Is confronted.
Elihu Root, Of the American delega-
tion, proposed the declaratory 1850
luton, and two hours Of debate pre-
ceded It's adoption. During the dis
cussion both Japan and China, as the.
most directly interested nations. asked
many questions as to possible applica-
tion Of the suggested principle to
specific problems, while all the other
nations took less active part IN tho
debate. sss
Perfect satisfaction with the
resolution was expressed recently BY
Admiral Barbn Kato, head OF the Jap
anese delegation, although he declined
to suggest what changes the agres-
ment might lead to in the far east.
The Chinese also declared themsel yc9
gratified at the development. and tho
delegatse Of the other nations gener-
ally voiced the view that the agree
ment was good start toward oom-
plete agreement on the most I'm
portant Of the far eastern problems.
| The two features Of the declaration
attracting widest attention tonight
were the clause approving admins
trative integrity, for China. and that
under which the powers agreed not~to
|seek special rights within Chinese
territory. Previous declarations Of
policy regarding Chinese integrity
have stopped with territorial integ-
T rfty" commonly construed as much
narrower term than administrative
integrity The special rights agree
ment was considered generally a d.
krect contravention of the policy Of
