BONUS CALLED
. H0PE,FOR
COTTON
BY international News Service

by international News service
Only a Government bonus or
similar machinery can raise the
price Of American cotton, w. L.
i clayton, of Anderson, Clayton
Company, Houston. Tex, cotton
brokers', yesterday told the Senate
Agriculture subcommittee inveSti-
eating the cotton market with a
view to relieving depression, here
this afternoon. He said:
You can't IegisIate sale value
into cotton"
Clayton, head of a firm known
as the biggest cotton brokers in
the world" delivered a lecture on
4 cotton economics to the COM
r1ittee. He was faced with a bar
gage of questions as to what was
wrong with the cotton market and
how to correct it.
Blames World Crop
The world cotton market, not
the United States market, is re-
sponsible for depressed condi-
lions. Clayton went on, explain
ing that this was the reason why
! nothing could be done by Con-
gress to help matters at present.
he said that unless business con-
ditions improved the first of 1880
he could see no immediate relief
for growers from present low
prices. He added:
As far as future trading,
spot cotton trading or any. fac
\ cor Of the industry Is con.
cerned, / can see nothing that
! Congress could do that would
help unless bonus Of some
! sort were paid the farmer"
Clayton's reply to questions OF
what was wrong with the market
were generally the same as those
he gave before the committee
on previous occasions. He ADDED:
The immediate cause OF the
depression Isl the fact that we
had SO much general business
depression. The spinners are
buying only for their inlmeci-
ate needs. So we have a dis
inclination to buy--and big
inclination to sell"
Low Prices JustN ,d
taking in the world demand
and supply, unless we have
some business Improvement
right after the first of the year,
/ believe conditions justify the
present low price of cotton.
The American cotton grower
should have at least ~ cents
pound to maintain his pre-
war standard of living-but
what it takes to maintain this
7 standard and what the world
cotton market will give him may
be two different things.
Senator Walcott (R.), of Con-
A1kcticut, drew a picture of the
cotton industry Of the future as
Hes fea' combination q n0n'p0
Clayton asserted that while
this might be true in the distant
future, there was no immediate
danger OF solicitations In the
cotton industry which would en-
! danger the farmer.
clayton went on record after
considerable questioning as in
favor Of call cotton buying. as a
natural evolution of the trade.

Genial Personality
Factor IN Success
Of Valley Business

An example of the results that
may be obtained by a combination
Of the best business methods with
the personal touch Is een in the
Valley Waffle Shoppe in San Be-
nito, one of the most popular eat
ing places in the Valley.
The concern revolveS around the
personality Of its genial owner and
proprietor, Pete GovatoS.
Opening as a restaurant and cafe
specializing in waffles and coffee,
Pete soon developed a business that
increased during the year and a
half that he has been in San Be-
nito, with his reputation foc cook
cry and service spread out to all
kinds of food.
The Waffle Shoppe was opened
in San Benito when the present
row Of buildings of Hinkley ard
SubIett were constructed, replacing
the old San Benito hotel.
The location was outfitted with
the neatest and most attractive fur
niture and fixtures, and was care
fully finished in well chosen colors.
A grand opening was followed BY
a rush of business which has con-
tinued to the present time.
Pete is one of the best known San
Benito Business men, his restaur-
ant being a regular gathering place
or social center at almost any hour
of the day, when business men have
their coffee.
Due to this fact the restaurant
specializes in good coffee, and the
