DIAL INTRODUCES
COTTON MEASURE

changes have on Cotton Producers.
4 Washington, April 19.-Senator Dial
or South Carolina has again intro
duced proposed amendment to the
cotton. futures act which would have
tendency to break the stranglc hold
which, he charges, the cotton exchang-
cS have on the cotton producers.
1T appears to be the conccnsus or
opinion that the Dial amendment
Will have better opportunity at pas
sage than the amendment of former
Senator Cromer, of Alabama. The
amendment of the formcr senator
passed the senate, but failed in the
mouse as result of the activity of rep
rcscntativcs Of cotton states which
produce only low grade cotton. 1t
was their contention that the Conner
amendment would have eliminated a
market for their product
Senator Dial declares that his
amendment would not only eliminate
a market but would probably creatc
a market. Under his schcme. any
purchaser from a cotton exchange
could demand one half OF his purchase
IN any two of the ten legal grades, and
the cotton exchange could deliver the
remaining half in any two of The ten
legal grades.
Both sides to the transacton," said
Senator Dial, have an even break.
Under the law as it is today, a cotton
exchange has the power to deliver a
quantity Of purchased cotton in either
one of the ten grades it desires. The
man who buys has absolutely no
chance. On the face OF things, that is
not fair. 1t is not right Such a
scheme would not hold good if applied
to any articles or goods purchased. If
the producer of potatoes was legally
authorized to dispose OF his potatoes
without consulting the purchaser, very
naturally the purchaser would receive
only low grade potatoes. And if the
purchaser had the entire option, the
producer Of course could sell only
his very excellent potatoes.
The same natural laws apply to
cotton transactions. Therefore nci-
thcr the seller nor the buyer shou!d
have the sole right of option. 1t, is
that evil which l am Alternating to
eradicate am not trying to put the
cotton exchanges out Of business; am
