CAUSING DROP
IN LINT PRICE
Rayon Growth, Alien Desire
for independence Cited
by Professor.
BY LOUIS BADER, PHI. n
Associate Professor of Marketing, Ss~
York University.

1ork university
NEW YORK. March 21.-Begln-
ming with the announcement of the
Agricultural Adjustment Admins
tration restriction programs, there
has been much discussion of their
effects on prices and the sales Of
the affected commodities in world
markets. 1t was quite evident that
advances in domestic prices above
world prices would lead to de-
creased demand for the American
products so affected. This was par
ticularly true of cotton.
AS the principal world producer
of cotton for more than a century
we had become the principal ex-
porter of it, sending to foreign
countries usually more than so per
cent of our annual crop.
Exports OFF Sharply
Since the application of the AAA
program our exports have fallen off
materially, a recent report OF the
Department of Commerce showing
only 2,864,538 bales exported for the
six months ending Feb. l, against
4,919,45O bales the preceding year.
This situation is giving concern
to the Southern cotton grower and
to others in our country. The ques-
ton also is being raised: 1t is due
altogether to the AAA program?
The phenomenon is, however, not
a new one. The AAA program may
accentuate. but it is not the only
factor in the movement which has
been taking the foreign market for
cotton away from us.
Reasons Are Cited
Among others there are two rea-
sons particularly which account for
it. One is the Spectacularly rapid
growth of the rayon industry IN
most of the countries which have
been large manufacturers of cotton.
The second and even more i'm
portant reason is to be found in the
fact that the principal cotton man
ufacturing countries have been try
ing for 80 years to make themselves
independent of American cotton.
Great Britain, for example, has
been at work in India for decades,
not only to increase the size of the
crop but to improve its quality so
that it might be used in place OF
American cotton.

BY DIR. LEO WOLMAN

Unquestionably the most striking
feature of the statistics of wages
and hours Is the degree Of recovery
Of hourly earnings and the reduc-
ton in the hours of work.
Hourly earnings have now prac-
tically made up the losses suffered
in the depression and are in general
at their 1929 levels. II is, moreover,
a fact of the utmost significance
that hourly earnings in the impor-
tant categories of employment are
about where they we're during the
years Of postwar prosperity from
1922 to 1929, and are, in many in
, stances, not materially below re-
corded hourly earnings in 1920, the
year Of peak wages in this country.
In the face of drastic declines in
the price level, rates of wages, in so
| far as they are measured by hourly
earnings, have apparently escaped
readjustment Of anything like the
same amount.
Full Time Hours Cut
The full-time hours of work have,
in the past two years, been more
radically reduced than in any SINH
lar period of which we have any
record. The maximum work week is
now certainly five hours shorter
than it was in 1929 and, in the
judgment of the writer, the reduc-
ton n. easily have been greater.
The srage weekly earnings of
employed labor have increased from
1888 to 1884 in all important cate
gories of employment, but they have
not increased by the same amount
as hourly earnings. In some the
increase was less than that in the
cost of living.
But in these classes of employ
ment public utilities, wholesale and
retail trade, Glass l railroads. the
decline in weekly earnings through
out the depression was not so great
as in the others, with the result that
the real weekly earnings of employees
In public utilities, wholesale and
retail trade, and Class l railroads
we're higher in 1884 than in 1929.
Pay Rolls Show Gain
In all important groups of indus
tries. both the volume of employ
ment and the volume of pay rolls
were materially higher in 1884 than
in 1893.
In all of these groups, also, the
total volume of wage and salary dis
burSementS in 1884 was considerably
below 1929. as is indicated in the
following table:

may be argued
that We should clear up the stu
alton once and fro all while We
are at II irrespective Of the cOnse-
qucnces. but your correspondent is
OF the opinion that such a proceed
ure should not be adopted without
some very serious thought.
The United States has paid a
fairly high price for such reforms
as already have been effected.
There can be little doubt but that
they have had a retarding effect
on business. and that the conse-
quent lag had been Offset only by
direct and indirect government ex-
penditureS. These expenditures, in
turn, have constituted a heavy
drain on the governments credit,
and they are yet 10 be repaid
through taxes, assuming they are
repaid.
4 DDITIONAL return might well
n result in currency imitation.
The government can not continue
Indefinitely 10 borrow money to
care for those forced into idleness
by lack OF trade activity. In fact.
10 is doubtful that it could have
proceeded as far as 1t has gone in
that direction had 1t not set up an
artificial and potentially dangerous
marketing procedure.
II probably is safe to say that
the banks of the United States
would not be carrying so many
government bonds in their port
folios II they did not realize that
they could easily convert them
into cash at the Federal Reserve
banks. The banks today are the
largest purchasers Of government
securities.
But If the Reserve banks are
obliged to take back government
bonds and pay out cash TO the
banks for them in very large
amounts the printing presses will
have 10 be brought into play. Such
a development might well be re-
garded as an important step in the
direction OF imitation.
THE question, therefore, which
Il should be considered at this
time is whether We desire additinoal
reforms at the risk Of imitation or
whether the needed reforms should
be postponed unlit such time as the
business health Of the country is
good enough TO stand them. Doc
tors frequently refrain from per-
forming needed operations due TO
the general weakness of the pa
tient. and those who would do a
thorough job Of trade repairs at
this time could do worse than look
at the problem from the same
angle.
The stock market has )een re-
garded as a reliable business ba-
rometer for many years, and it in
variably has proved TO be an &C
curate fOrecaster. The me- rket &C
ton during the last month or so
has pointed in the direction of a
slump in trade. II says that the
small recovery We have expert
enced may be erased in the months
directly ahead. The warning may
be more important than many peo-
pie believe.

@HICAGo, January 2s.-Base
Ball Commissioner KeneSaw
Y 4 Mountain Lands has put the
Cincinnati Reds to a lot of
extra bookkeeping and hastened the
careers of II young players by rul-
ing on the working agreement" sys-
tenn.
The ruling orders the Cincinnati
club to either comply with organized
base balls transfer rules or risk fines
and the loss of the players, who, the
commissioner maintains. we're moved
from five minor league clubs to clubs
of higher classification in an irregu-
lar manner.
The players, none of them named in
long statement sent out for the in
formation of all clubs, came from
minor league teams at Wilmington,
NJ c.; Beckley, w. Va: Bartlesville.
Okla; jeanette. Pa, and Mount Airy,
N. c. Ten of them were sent to
Toronto of the International League,
and the remaining seven to Fort
Worth of the Texas League, in deals
made or suggested" by the Reds.
The commissioner ruled that in
stead of shifting the players directly
from the smaller clubs to Toronto
and Fort Worth, Cincinnati should
have signed them to Red contracts
and then reaSSigned them. This the
Reds were ordered to do. Signing
them TO major league contracts be-
fore sending them away makes the
II eligible for the draft next season.
Under the method used they would
not have been eligible for drafting into
higher company for three years.
The document also included a rul-
ing by the commissioner that after
the 1885 season club may not have
working agreement" with an entire
league or with more than one team in
a league. This decision affects the
st. Louis Cardinals. who had such
an arrangement with the Nebraska
State League last year. The world
champions have arranged for the
same plan this season with both the
Nebraska State and Arizona State
circuits.

COLLEGES IN EAST
PLAN NEW LEAGUE
Georgetown Is Among Lot
Likely to Band in Big
Athletic Family.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NITTSBURGH, January 29.-The
- rise of a new athletic con-
ference, embracing colleges
East and West of the Ale
ghanies and an ofshoot of the pres
ent Eastern intercollegiate Basket
Ball Conference, was predicted in
sports circles today.
At State College, Pa, Penn States
faculty commission on athletics met
to consider an invitation to Join the
Eastern Basket Ball Conference, TAX
ing the place left vacant by the with
drawal of Bucknell. Graduate Man
ager Neil NJ. Fleming said Penn State
probably" will accept.
Athletic directors of the various
schools are silent as yet, but action
by the Nittany Lions is viewed as
first step toward the formation of
year-round conference modelled after
JDe Dig len.
1t was pointed out that the organi-
zation of such a circuit-which prob
ably would include Pitt, West Vir-
ginia, Carnegie Tech, Georgetown,
Temple, Penn State and maybe one
or two others-would be partly de-
fenSive.
This Is because of the movement
toward new collegiate league along
the Atlantic seaboard. Many believe
Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia.
Cornell, Dartmouth and Penn are
planning to join up in one athletic
family.
Syracuse, an old Pitt and Penn
State rival, and perhaps Colgate are
mentioned in discussions as other
possible members should the Eastern
intercollegiate Basket Ball Confer
ence grow into a permanent all-sports
loop.
