NEW YORk-Any analysis of
the cotton situation involves APP
preaching the problem from sew
eral angles. In the forefront, as Ia
customary, should be placed supply
and demand, usually. II not nearly
always the ultimately dominating
factor. Then there IL the war.
with such subdivisions an defense
requirements. expansion Of over
seas markets-admittedly a hard
nut 10 crack In these days-and
the position of the domestic con-
sumner. which recently has become
matter of tender solicitude.
Along with the above must be
placed the position of the cotton
producer, not only the going mar
ket price. but also the ''compensa
tory payments designed to step
up agricultural income so that the
cotton grower will not look like
the tattered poor relation Of the
high-riding industrial worker.
When these and other angles
are given the ''once over" we have
a picture that might bear the title
Of chaos" II one cannot find a
more lurid description.
As OF March 81. the stock OF
American cotton in all hands In
the United States amounted to
16.20o.o0o bales. This compares
with lS.so7 900 at the correspond
ing date last season. The figures
represented an all-time record.
Government-owned or controlled
stocks OF cotton make the venture
OF the Inflated federal farm board
look like a Sundsy-sehool picture
Even after repossessions OF more
than 100000 bales out OF the
1910 loan. these holdings are now
about lo.25O. 900 bales.
Increase In Consumption - New
ertheless. domestic consumption
has come along to mitigate the
terrors OF this statistical display.
All-time records for domestic cot
ton consumption are foreshsdowed
for this reason. and anyone who
ventures a prediction OF $500. 600
bales will not be far from the
mark.
This. Of course. would include
approximately <oo. 900 bales Of cot
ton for mattress consumption. This
latter il quite an item. and no one
begrudees the "under-privileged'
the pleasure OF tempting Morpheus
on ''downy couch" bestowed by
king Cotton" The figure may be
somewhat exceeded. and at any
rate Is practically 1000. 900 bales
above the 1855. 600 consumed las,
season
One wonders where all this cot
ton goes. A compilation issued by
the department OF commerce some
time ago gave this information up
TO the end OF February: Tire fab
rics and cords accounted for near
ly 100000 bales: narrow sheetings
and allied fabrics called for nearly
700. 900 bales; heavy duck, about
SIS. 900 bales: print cloth yarn con-
structions. around 400 900 bales

geared for heavy production of army and navy ships, find themselves with no defense orders fill they will also find themselves with the space and equipment to turn out private planes much cheaper than was possible during the emergency days
 Not only will the plane plants have much more extensive production facilities than before; the nation will have large of trained schooled in the production of planes, who will be suddenly out of jobs unless the plants turn their attention to private plane construction. Look at the future of aviation from any angle and you will that increased civilian use of the mechani- cal birds is inevitable.
 And it is these civilian planes which in another four five years, will be coming into Alaska on pleasure jaunts and business trips Coming in veritable swarms in the summer months and swell ing record of increased air travel by almost numbers
 With an eye toward the future then, Alaska cities may well begin preparing themselves to take care of the airpane tourist and business man.
 Every city of any size in the Territory has or government landing fields and hangars to house commercial and government planes, but just as hotels are necessary for visitors and boat moorings must be provided for visiting craft, some sort of either muncipaly privately owned airport facilities going to be vital necessity to take care of the craft in which our future visitors will wing their way north.
