NOT ILLEGAL FOR

"o"CN III " EaIt IfIOU SEHS.
Seattle. Wash, Oct. 1O.-While
the wearing by women of masculine
shirts and trousers may perhaps be
subject to some criticism from an ar
tistic or aesthetic standpoint, it can
not be said that it is prohibited by
the law" Attorney-General L. L.
Thompson has advised w. H Hillyer,
town marshal of Zillah, Wash.
Marshal Hillyer consulted every
authority in his pursuit of means to
curb the wearing of mems attire by
women in his town. Secretary of State
J. Grant Hinkle, to whom the ques-
tion was first put, passed the problem
up to E. L. French, director of agri-
culture, on the ground that the wom-
on wearing mems clothing were en-
gagged in agricultural work. Mr.
French was unable to offer solution
and the matter passed ON to MIR
Thompson.

sons for Cooperative Marketing OF
Tobacco:
1t standardiZes grades and stabi-
Lies prices The tobacco will be
carefully graded by the association
experts according to standard grades
determined with the aid of govern
ment experts They are already at
work upon this. Standardization OF
grades will aid in stabilizing prices
and in selling each grade for it's full
market value, which value will be
known by the associations statesmen
supplied daily with the fullest mar
keting information.
Under the present system. there is
no standardization of grades before
selling. and consequ )ltly no stabiliz-
ing of prices is possible. The grades
are mixed in the same piles of tobac-
co. The grower-seller has no accu-
rate knowledge of the quality of what
he sells. The buyer has fuller and
more accurate knowledge of both and
Consequently prices are speculative
a sort of gamblers game in which all
the odds are in favor Of the better in
formed organized buyers. 1t happens
ev.,>. - on every warehouse floor
that tobacco of the same grade sells
for widely different prices. Tobacco
of inferior grades sells for more than
better grades. The same tobacco oft
en- sells for different prices in differ
! ent rows on th1e same day on the
same warehouse floor.
Price protection through cOmmod-
ity control. Tie individual tobacco
grower coming into the open market
of the world in competition with ev-
cry other tobacco grower. controlling
only an infinitesimal fraction of the
commodity. can never hope to have
any voice or influence in fixing or
protecting the price Of his product.
Only by organization under a bind
ing. legally enforceable. longtime
contract. and controlling enough to-
bacco to make them a big, preferably
the biggest. factor in the market for
that commodity. can growers hope to
lave any influence in fixing or pro-
tecting the price. Until they do that,
they must continue to sell at a price
fixed by organized. thOroughly-in-
And such buyers will naturally fix
the lowest possible prices in order to
make the biggest possible profit for
themselves.
This principle of commodity con-
troll through organization for price
protection is recognized and practised
by every other big successful business
and industry, Consolidated Steel.
Standard Oil, Meat Packers, Tobacco
Manufacturers, Cotton Manufacturers.
1t has afforded price protection for
agricultural commodities through or
ganized cooperative marketing as
sociation elsewhere. Who can doubt
that a cooperative marketing asso-
citation for tobacco covering the three
states of North Carolina, Virginia and
South Carolina, the biggest bright to-
bacco belt of the world. controlling
at least SO per cent-and from the
present outlook, rs per cent of the
bright tobacco-will be equally sue
cessful, as the biggest single factor
in the bright tobacco market of the
world, in protecting the price of
