SOARING COTTON IS
IN VIEW As j. 6.
PREDICTS FAMINE
BY HARDEN COLFAX
Neased Wire Service to The JOurnal.)
(COpyright. 1929

Copyright, 1921
WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The en-
tire supply of raw cotton in the
United States will be exhausted be-
fore next August at the present rate
of consumption and export, the de-
partment of agriculture announced
today, leaving the country without
this important staple for several
months or until the 1928 crop is
available.
The department in it's announce
ment, however, holds out the hope
that the acuteness of the approach
ing situation may be averted through
continued rise in prices which
would inevitably reduce consump-
ton. In any event cotton and cot
ton products seem destined to soar
to much higher price levels within
the coming months. The depart
ment's statement. given to this cor
respondent, is as follows:
Consumption of cotton by Amer
lean mills during the first five
months of the season was on the
basis Of a little more than 6,O00,-
900 bales for 1922.
Should consumption by American
mills and exports continue st the
present rate. it is estimated that the
supply in the United States will dis
appear before next August.
ut is pointed out, however, that
the continued advance in prices
would inevitably reduce consump-
ton.
THE world supply of American
cotton, August 1, 1922, was approx
mately 5,123,000 bales of which about
100000 bales were in the United
States. Production of cotton in 1922
in the United States is placed at
9,S90,000 bales, indicating a total sup
ply of American cotton in the Unit
ed States for the 1929 season of
approximately 12.450,OOO bales.
American cotton mills are we'll
filled with orders ahead, and Great
Britain, France, Italy, Spain and
Belgium have taken more cotton so
far this season than for the CORE
spending period last year. Germany
has taken about 125,OO0 bales less
than last year and Japan and China
nearly 100000 bales less"
The present price of cotton is
around the 27-cent level. During the
past few days the market has fluc-
tuated in response to developments
in the unsettled European situation.
The future of the cotton planter and
the cotton mill, while not entirely
bound up with the situation in Eu
rope, is directly affected by condi
tons there and the restoration of a
partial state of stability. in the view
of officials here, will tend to advance
price sharply.
l. he inverse dloO - u Nv N@AANA -
cause such is the case, economists
here believe that the chief hope OF
preventing d cotton famine in the
United States next summer lies in q
continuance of the decentralization 1r
Europe existing at the present time
The department of labor, engaged
in it's monthly work of checking ur
on the volume of employment, ex
poets to show continual gains during
December. The level of wages OF
common labor is reported to be about
So per cent above that of 1921.
Demand for money was much
more active during the week and in
terest rates hardened. The effect
of this may be to compel the pay
ment of a higher interest rate on the
forthcoming long term issue of Unit
ed States bonds than officials had
hoped for.

afternoon was taken up with The
statement made by DIR. Lanford cor

by DIR. Duval. 20.
Both physicians declared that a
dynamite explosion could have pro

autopsies showed. This point was
emphasized by the states legal rep
resentatives in their questioning be-
cause of the fact that the discoV-

Lake La Fourche two weeks ago
was preceded by a mysterious eX-
p1osion which wrecked the banks of

At the time there has beeh decline in the number of among all first admissions in which there is record of intem- perate of alcohol In 1909 such constituted 28.7 per cent all first admissions, while in 1921 this rate had declined to 118. A close correlation found exist between the rate of alcoholic first admissions to New York hospitals and the per capita consumption of liquors in the United States. Dr. Pollock is of the opinion that even closer correlation would have been found had the data relative to the capita consumption of liquors in New York State been available.
 The lowest rates for alcoholic admissions appear in 1920. The slight increase in 1921 Dr. Pollock be-
 ieyes to be due partly to lax administration of the liquor laws and partly to economic depression During the whole period for which adequate data avail able, the percentage of alcoholic admissions from urban districts has everywhere greatly exceeded the percentage from rural districts the Federal Gen. sus of 1910, alcoholic admissions from rural districts constituted 778 per cent. of all alcoholic admissions A study of first admissions the New York civil state hospitals from July 1, 1915, July 30, 1920 showed that 90.9 per of the alcoholic ad- missions from urban districts These figures borne cut by representative data from the state hospital reports of number of states for 1919 1920 and 1921 in which years percentages of alcoholic first admissions from urban districts S56, 83.9 and S4.4 respectively.
