The FIRST bale of cotton from
the new 1921 crop was sold on
Houston, Texas, market on May
10Th, and is the earliest bale On
record. The previous early bale
was marketed about June 10,
1918, and last year the first bale
was marketed about June 2ath.
It was raised near San Benito, in
the extreme lower part of Texas.
1t is estimated that fully 1000
bales Of new cotton will be mar
keted from Texas during the
month of June.
Sounds strange to our people,
this marketing of a new bale Of
cotton when up this way cotton

For United States Valuation

Congressman Points Out Neces-
sity for New System Incorporated
In Tariff Bill
I'VE are importing at the rate of
about $500 100000 worth of foreign
goods per month into the United
States" declares Congressman ]. w.
Fordney, Chairman of the House
Ways and Means Committee. "Most
OF those goods could be made here.
There Is not a manufactured article
produced In tho United States in
which the labor cost is less than 20
per cent. Of the total cost mean,
following the raw material from
start to finish. Now, if that is true,
Of the $300,000,000 that we are send
ing abroad each month to buy for
eign made goods, $2S0,000,000 Is
going out from the people of the
United States to employ. German,
French, English, Japanese and Chi
nese labor, while our laborers are
walking the streets in idleness.
Under free trade we must como
to common level somewhere, If we
compete with all the countries of the
world. Today German labor is get
ting from 90 to IS cents per day in
gold for ten or twelve hours. Japan
csc and Chinese labor today is from
II to Is cents per day in gold for
twelve hours work. If we had to be
placed on a par with the imports
from those countries, do you believe
we could lift those foreign countries
up to our standard Of living1 Not at
all. We have got to come down to a
common level somewhere, but we are
not ready to do that, and we are not
going to do it.
Revision Demanded
"The people OF the country are de-
handing tariff revision. Some people
say that Canada will retaliate. Can
ada is the best customer we have in
the world, on the basis of population.
There is no place in the world where
our balance of trade is stronger than
in Canada. Canada has no reason to
complain about the rates fixed in the
new tariff bill; none whatever. |
shall tell you why.
last year Canada collected $3.50
in import duties for every man, wo-
man and child in Canada, Great Brit
ain, the great free trade country of
the world, or said to be, collected
$l6.5O per capita, or %2S.0000O0. We
collected $3.15. Little Japan is col
lccting at the rate of 20 per cent. ad
valorem upon all her imports, drti-
able and free. We have the lowcst
duty of any principal country on the
face Of the earth right now, and
have had. since 1918.
