HOUSE PASSES BILLS
ON COTTON INDUSTRY
Senate Measure Requiring Semi
Monthly Report on Product Now
Goes to President.

The House last night passed the
senate bill providing for issuance
semi monthly of cotton reports by
the Department of Agriculture and
for their publication simultaneously
with the ginning reports of the Com
merce Department. The measure now
goes to the President.
Another bill passed by the House
would authorize the census bureau
amount of cotton in warehouses and
other places and to make an estimate
of the number of bales on farms.
The measure. which was introduced
by Representative Byrnes. Democrat.
South Carolina, now goes to the
Senate.
Under the Senate bill approved by
the House acreage reports based
upon the intention of cotton growers
to plant would be discontinued. The
reports of the Department of Agri-
culture as to conditions, progress and
probable production of cotton would
be issued twice a month, between
July ] and December I. Between
August | and December l the crop
and ginning report would be made
public at the same time.
The bill. which was sponsored by
the cotton bloc" will result, in the
opinion of the House agriculture
committee. which recommended its
passage, in preventing. among other
things, violent huctuation in price
due to different interpretations of the
two reports.
In its report the committee said
that during the critical growing
period of cotton crop weather and
other factors may greatly change the
outlook within a week or so.
The bill also provides for three
cotton statisticians to act on the cot
ton crop reporting board. The com
mlttee estimated that it would take
about $4,000 additional to provide
for satisfactory semi monthly re-
ports, the bulk of the money to be
used in defraying the expense for
additi tional statisticians and for their
travel in the fields.

Copper Group Strong.
With the exception of Anaconda.
which has behaved differently from
the rest right along, the copper group
was strong.
American Sugar dropped below 40
again. but the shares of the produc-

better. Some heavy covering was
done in American WOODEN around 66,

that the Coca Cola dividend will be

that there would be no change and
that the stock was being picked up

COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK, April Ca further
sharp decline in the cotton market
marked today's early trading due to
low Liverpool cables continued I'M
favorable reports from the dry goods
markets and liquidation of near
months presumably in preparation
for possible notices on Friday.
The opening was easy at a decline
of 2S to 50 points. After some ir-
regularity, active months sold 35 to
AZ points net lower. with May declin-
ing to 1906 and October to 24O0.
Private cables attributed the weak
ness in Liverpool to straddle selling
and liquidation. Houses with Liver
pool and New Orleans connections
were sellers here during the early
trading. There also was q. good deal
of local and Wall street liquidation.
Trade interests were buyers of
old crop months on a scale down.
presumably to fix prices. but heavy
liquidation continued, with the mar
ket working off to 29.O2 for May
and 23.9S for October during the
forenoon or 81 to SO points net lower.
Selling pressure then subsided and
trading was quieter toward midday
with prices showing rallies of 10 or IS

A national conference on street and
highway safety has been called by
Secretary Hoover to meet in Wash

obtain better organization and CO.
operation of activities in reduction of

panieS, safety councils, chambers of
commerce, labor unions, automobile
associations and other organizations

tend.
The importance of this question"
the Secretary said" needs no en-
phasis beyond the bold statement of
the facts brought out by the statisti-
cal committee composed of eminent
authorities who. after canvassing To-
cal. municipal, state and national in
formation, arrived at the conclusion
that in 1923, not less than 22,600 per-
sons were killed. SIS, 900 injured and
600.000,000 worth of property dam
age incurred in traffic accidents. This
represents an increase of so per cent
within the last years. OF the acci-
dents. about IS per cent were due to
automobile traffic.
as to warrant the most complet con-
sideration and effort at drastic
remedy"
Mr.. Hoover has had eight special
committees at work gathering data
and making other preparations that
the conference might be successful.
