Seek TO CurtaiI Danger

England was the first cotton spinning
country outside of the United States to
awaken to the danger of having her
major manufacturing activity almost
absolutely dependent on the vagaries Of
climate, legislative regulation and
specul in a country over which
she had no control, and movement
was started some twenty years ago to
mitigate this danger by extending the
growth of the fiber within the empire.
The World War strengthened the de-
termination ultimately to attain this
freedom, while the present cotton fam
inc has produced a firm resolve to
speed the process. There are many
yet alive in Lancashire who have q
lively recollection of the dire straits
in which the industry found itself dur
ing our Civil War.
+ Progress in this direction has been
encouraging. despite the interruption
of seven years hostilities. The total
amount of cotton produced in new fields
in the British Empire during 1920 was
105,s00 bales, compared with the pre-
vious record of 1914 Of 1880 bales.
The latest step OF the British is the
formation OF che British Empire Cot
ton Growing Corporation under a
royal charter, with grant of si.000,-
900 from the government. It is TO be
non-profit making body. This grant
will be supplemented by fund raised
by the spinners contributing pence
a bale on ali the cotton used. More
than 80 per cent Of the trade have
agreed to the levy 1t would appear
that the matter is to be approached in
L practical way, central research
bureau is to be set M, the agricul-
tural departments OF the British col
cnies are to BIO enlarged, cotton read

dered in the proper marketing Of the
crops.
Africa is receiving much attention.
Uganda is looked upon as most prom
iSsng field. Staple cotton of excellent
grade is being grown and the yield is
Increasing from year TO year. IT is
grown entirely by the natives, who in
1920 had l62,35t acres under cultiva-
tion. A crop of 100000 bales has
been estimated as the yield from that
protectorate within very few years.
Progress is being made in Nigeria and

Panicky Situation

The situation in regard to the cur
rency Is in some countries becoming
nanfcSy and the decline in value has
been carried to an extreme point. Some
course must be adopted that will radi-
eally change the situation, and what
ever proposition is considered must be
one that 1t Is possible to carry out.
Practically every one of these nations
would like to borrow from America,
but with the credit they present in the
form of ordinary national obligations
such borrowings, in most instances. if
not in all, is impossible. The plan
which | propose offers security which
would be regarded by American invest
ors as an underlying one, and offers
prospect of enough profit to attract
capital. On the other hand. the profit
is limited and large part of the earn
ings go to the governments where the
banks are located. If the profits so
paid to the various governments were
to be devoted to the purpose of re-
purchasing the stock every government
might IN few years own its proper
tlonare amount of stock without hav-
ing been forced to devote anv of its
income from taxation to the nurpose

Cotton Industry Lays Plans
To Prevent World Shortage
Consumption Rapidly Overcoming Production of
Staple, and Efforts Are Being Made
to Avert Disaster


in 1900. when the factory system of
cotton manufacturing was we'll under
way in Lancashire, the exports of cot
ton from the United States were but
$4,000 bales. and that, with really
urgent demand for increasing supplies,
American exports twenty years later
were Only 254,o00 bales, and this in a
civilized community having ample sup
plies Of forced labor.
Indications are that in the future
Americas position in the raw cotton
markets will be governed by cost of
production and transportation charges
from field to factory, and, as boil
weevil control will compel more and
more extensive application of fertiliz-
ers, both cost and selling price viii be
pushed upward. This will make the
lure of cotton growing stronger on the
virgin soils of some countries and the
cheaper lands of others.
