STABLE CURRENCY

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 29.-Unbalanced
budgets. international trade rivalries,
political tealousies, fears Of war
these are few major parts Of the cur
rency stabilization puzzle which none
tary experts are trying to piece to-
gether.
Since May IA when Secretary of the
Treasury Morgenthau issued what was
regarded as an invitation to nations of
the world to tackle the stabilization
problem, efforts to fit together the
pieces have been going on behind the
scenes.
Morgenthau's stand was followed by
United States assistance to France In
warding of attacks on the franc.
Friday Johannes Postmus, governor
Of the South African Reserve Bank,
departed from London to the United
States. known as a stanch defender
of the gold standard, he will seek de-
tailed information here on motives in
back of American stabilization ideas.
As the result of these steps, q num-
Der OF leading economists and bankers
feel that before the end of the year
some concrete action may be taken
which will start clearing the path for
stabilization.
Presently. however. that path is so
thorny SIS to make even the most in
trepid statesmen and cabinets tread
warily.
Fundamentally, world currency sta
bilization is felt to be a three-way
party to which the invites are Great
Britain, the United States and France.
Consequently, bankers say, until each
of the three achieves somewhat more
definite economic and political condi-
tions, stabilization must remain mat
ter for hope rather than action.
Until action starts debate will run
high. Many compare the problem to
q cat chasing its tail. Some say:
There can be no sterilization until
world recovery gets under way" As
others see it: There can be no re-
covery until currencies are stabilized"

OUTLOOK CHEERS
COTTON FARMERS
12-Ct. Average and Larger
Crop Than Last Year
Expected Now.
BY FRANK I. WELLER.

The American cotton farmer, who
saw the price Of his produce rise from
S cents a pound to almost IA cents at
times since 1888. is going into the
1856 season fairly hopeful of q H.
cent average and more cotton to sell
than last year.
At midyear he had ofilcial con-
firmation by the Government that its
practice Of making loans to farmers
against warehouse receipts for cotton
would be continued. Since initiation
of the practice the loan value Of cot
ton has been stepped up from 10
cents to IL cents q pound, and pro-
ducers generally have the opinion that
level is the administration idea Of q
fair base price.
The cash price of cotton early in
the season just ending averaged around
l3 cents a pound. On August 9, 1884,
1t made seasonal high of 1853 cents.
From that period until early March
of 1885 values hovered around IL
cents, the Government loan price.
Processing Tax Fought.
Then came the cotton textile in
dustry's fight to overthrow the cotton
processing tax, speculation that the
Bankhead cotton control act might be
repealed and rumors in the trade that
Government cotton loans would be
discontinued. BY March 18 cash cot
ton had dropped to 1850 cents
pound, the low so far this season. 1t
had worked back to Ills cents by
June /.
If current private estimates prove
correct. the 1856 supply Of American
cotton will be about 18,500, 900 bales
Forecasts range from 10,500,000 to
IL SOC, 900 bales for the new crop, de-
pending on individual view of damage
done by the wet weather. and average
around $4,000 bales in the carry
over.
There was carryover Of 7,746, 900
bales when the 1934-5 season opened
and the 1884 crop added 9,469, 900
bales.
The apparent supply Of American
cotton In the United States on June
/ was about 8,474, 900 bales. But ap-
proximately 4,400, 900 bales were held
of the market by the l2-cent loan
and 100000 bales were in the pro-
ducers' pool, leaving only 3,274,0o0
bales of apparently free cotton for
June and July needs.
Small Balance Seen.
Estimating a domestic demand of
900, 900 bales during those two months.
an export demand of 100000 bales,
mill stocks Of $4,000 bales and 50O,-
600 bales in transit, there apparently
would be an available free market
balance of only $4,000 bales at the
end of the season.
Both domestic consumption and
foreign demand Is tagging. From
August to June of the current season
the former was 8.3 per cent less than
during the corresponding period of
1s34-5, and exports we're about 38
per cent less.
Inasmuch as exports have been SO
small, particularly to Europe, there
Is q possibility they may pick up dur
ing the last two months Of the season.

the A. A. A. sections which protected
the market.
Silver made history when the world
price tagged along after the Treasury
price for newly mined domestic silver,
passed it, then declined abruptly when
the Treasury refused to bid higher.
In two jumps the Treasury raised the
domestic price from 64.64 cents a fine
ounce to 77.57 cents in four months.
World prices passed 80 cents, broke
sharply and entered the last days of
midyear in the low 70s, still well
above the January average of 54.42
cents.
World copper. too, advanced, but
slowly. Blue Eagle copper in the
United States held steadily at 8 cents
a pound while world prices edged over
8 cents only to fall again when the
original N. r. A. died. Biggest aid
was world agreement to adjust pro-
duction to demand.
