SEES NEED FOR
. TRADING RULES
Standardization of Cotton Trad
ing Rules May Iron Out Diff
hculties to u. S. Shippers

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-Stand-
ardization of cotton trading rules
and contracts in the worlds cotton
markets would iron out many of the
difficulties now experienced by
American shippers and place the
world cotton business on a more I'M
form basis, Dr. A. b Cox, Depart
ment Of Agricultural eclnomist de-
clared today following ycar 5
study of European cotton markets
Much time and money are lost in
international cotton trade through
the need to arbitrate disputes arts
ing out of differences in trading
rules, contracts and practices in the
various markets." DR.. Cox said "No
two cotton markets are alike in
methods of calculating cotton tare
and net weights, in the wording of
| contracts, and as regards length of
staple on which the contract is bas-
ed. 1t is difficult Tor the smaller
firms, and especially those just get
ting into the business, to compete
successfully because of the difficulty
of getting this information.
DR.. CoX's recommendation for the
elimination of these difficulties is
to encourage the movement for the

sengers in ALL The ermans have
been singularly free from accidents.
Everybody in Germany seems to
be boosting aviation. The govern
ment, not being allowed to have
military air fleets is free to spend
money in developing civil aviation.
Recently the Ministry of Transport,
in conjunction with the great air.
plane companies, established school
to train airmen and to give ex-army
and navy-pilots a refresher course.
But the most striking thing is the
manner in which town after town is
boosting the air services. Thus not
long ago Chemnitz contributed $780,
900 marks, of which the municipal
government itself gave 200, 900. This
is to establish an air service between
Berlin and Chemnitz and another
to Bremen by way of Leipzig and
Hanover. Part of the money is al
so for building an airdrome. All
over Germany cities are giving land
and money.
The fares charged for air passen-
ger service are about equal to first
class railway fare. On long dis
tances there is a saving, because
the cost of sleeping cars and meals
is cut out.

standardization of rules, practices
and staple length description. These
reforms he thinks will be greatly
promoted by the cooperation of the
European cotton trade with Amer
lean shippers.
Discussing the present European
textile situation, DR.. Cox said that
textile production in England has
been very much reduced since the
war on account of decreased buying
power of India and China, but 1t IS
now increasing, Italy, on the 9TH
er hand, is taking more American
cotton to meet the demand for low
er grade products. Production
costs, also, in Italy are much lower
than in England because of cheap
labor.
The German mills, he said, made
money up to June, when production
began to outrun sales. Switzerland
has about the same situation as in
England, the demand for high class
goods Tor embroidery and iaces haV-
ing declined, while the cost of pro-
duction is high. Spain is manufac-
turing mainly for home needs.
France is almost back to pre-war
production, having taken nearly L.
100000 bales of American cotton
this year. Costs production in France
and Belgium show a considerable
Improvement since the war, much
modern machinery having been in
stalled and many new manufacturing
methors adopted.

STRICT TREATY
DOES NOT KEEP
GERMANY IDLE
They Have Several New Types of
Planes and Are Leading
Other Nations
By MILTON BRoNNER

BERLIN, Oct "a Taking all
the barriers imposed by the Allies,
crippled as to the size of their ma
chimes, the power of their engines
and the load they can carry, the
Germans, nevertheless, today are the
leading comercial aviation power in
the world.
They have nothing like the long
distance air mail service regularly
carried out by Uncle Sam. But in
the everyday prosaic business of car
rying passengers, mail, and freight
over regularly established lines they
have the other countries almost tied
to the post.
And it gives the French cold shiv-
ers, Notwithstanding that France is
the strongest military aviation pow
er in the world. For the Germans
are building numerous factories for
manufacturing planes. They are
establishing airdromes all over the
Germany. They have brought into
being a large body of scientifically
educated and trained air pilots and
navigators.
The Council of Ambassadors of
the Allies by the famous nine rules
for Germany limited the engine pow
er, the altitude, the speed, the char
acter of the oil to be used, the use
full load of airships. But working
within these limits the Germans have
today cabbaged the air business of a
large part of Europe.
There are 1872 regularly establish
ed air lines in the world. The Ger
mans run either directly or indirect
ly 81 of these.
Over19 900 Of German air routes
are regularly covered principally by
the great Junkers and Deutsche Llft-
verkehrs. Only recently the Eur . pc
Union was formed. In this combine
the Germans are paramount, buut 1t
includes Swiss Finish, Esthonian,
Swedish, Danish. Latvian and Aus
titan lines. The plan is to use only
airplanes of uniform type furnished
by the Junker company. This shuts
out the French and British from an
extensive field for sales.
In the fiSrt half of 1926 the

zoo passengers and 226,00O pounds
of freight. In the same period Junk

pounds of freight and $4,000 pounds
of mail. In six years the British
