COME BACK
DECLARE
GROWERS
There Was a Two Billion
Loss in 1920 But Market
Will Recover. Harding to
Aid.

NEW YORK, May 31.-The country
faces the shortest cotton crop in the
last quarter of a century, j. S. Wan
namaker Of Saint Mathews, S. c., pres
ident of the American Cotton Asso-
citation, today told the National Con-
sultation conference of Cotton Grow
ers.
This shortage was largely due, he
said, to the successful cotton acreage
reduction campaign of the association
in its efforts to create a market and
prevent further deflation in prices. No
quoted statistics to show the acreage
had been reduced 30.73 per cent.
Abolition of cotton exchanges if
they cannot be regulated adequately
by law was advocated by Senator 7.
J. Heflin of Alabama, in an address
before the national consultation of the
American Cotton Growers, manufac-
turers and affiliated interests. Con-
sderaton is being given a law con-
cerning cotton figures, he asserted, but
he expressed doubt as to the posi-
bility of framing a measure that the
exchanges could not find way to
evade.
'If the cotton exchanges cannot be
regulated" he declared,'1 am in favor
of killing them. | say give them an
other change, However, we don't have
to have exchanges to sell cotton.
"The price of cotton will go up
again. We will survive it. Let us go
back and breach to our people never
to go back to pre-war prices. Cotton
cannot be produced at II to IA cents a
pound under present conditions"
Senator Heflin favored amending
the Federal reserve law so the Federal
reserve board would be compelled to
recognize staple cotton as basis for
credit. Ways and means of rehabi!:-
tating the cotton industry and putting
it on prewar basis were discussed
at the opening session.
The government recognizes the IN
dustry faces critical situation, Pres
ident Harding declared in telephone
message to the conference, and he as
sured the cotton growers the admin
istration desired to cooperate with
those seeking to improve conditions.
oCildCOI NdllStiSll, IoulSiuil', q Wv
Eon planter, estimated cotton produc-
iers had lost approximately $2,000,00O,-
900 in 1920, due to adverse market
Eonditions.
} j. r. MacColl of Providence, former
president of the National Association
of Cotton Manufacturers, sent a mes
sage in which he declared manufacture
ers were not opposed to higher prices
for the raw product and had come to
realize that advocacy of decreased
growers prices was unwise.
l.. d. Tison, representing the Amer
lean Cotton Manufacturers associa-
ton, told the growers that the" were
in the same boat with the manufac-
turers. "The only way we can get
out of this trouble" he continued, sis
to reduce acreage, and bring supply
down to the level of demand"
President Wannamaker announced
that large manufacturing interests
had informed him they were prepar-
ing to buy large stocks of cotton, be-
lieving that prices would advance.

WILL SIMPLIFY
WORK OF BOARD
(By United Press)


SACRAMENTO, May 31.-With the
signing of the Crowley bi\placing the
control of smallpox of the state in the
hands Of the state board ~f health,
Governor Stephens has killed the vac
Icination act of 1911, according to state
ment from DR.. Walter M. Dickie, Sec
retary of the state board of health.
The bill will take vaccination con-
troll out of it's present chaotic condi-
ton and provide more orderly oper-
alton of the law. in the opinion OF
DR.. Dickie.
"The schools of California, under
the old law, have lost large sums OF
money through lack Of attendance
whenever smallpox appeared in any
district. Through absence, many pu-
pills have been deprived of necessary
part Of their education and have been
retarded in their work. In many cases
this has caused them to drop school
work before completing their courses
'Tne state board of control will now
place small poX control upon the. same
basis as the control of any of the other
communicable diseases. This will sim.
plify the work of health officers and
teachers, will facilitate quick action
in stamping out the disease whereve,
it may appear, and will eliminate the
''red tape" and the clumsy features OF
the old law"
DR.. Dickie asked the cooperati-E of
the general public with health officers
in the enforcement of the state boards
regulations. Indications are that
smallpox will be more prevalent this
year than ever before, as the records
for the first quarter of 1921 show ar
unprecedented number of cases re-
ported.
