NEW YORK. Aug. 10 (AP).-Cot-
ton futures lost ground last week Ac-
tive contracts on the New York Cot
ton Exchange took net losses ranging
from 30 cents to "a q bale.
The distant deliveries were the
hardest hit The october and De-
cember. 1859. positions made new
ife-of-contract lows.
At the start Of the week, the nearer
months turned soft on selling infiu-
enced by q larGer-than-expected ofi-
eial crop forecast and a smaller-than-
expected final 1888 loan rate. The
distant maturities flrmed on the err
roneous expectation that the House OF
Representatives would not approve q
farm bill at this session.
When this proved false and the
House finally passed compromise
farm bill. prices were hammered down
in waves OF heavy selling The mar
ket steadied somewhat toward the close
on short covering that reflected tech
ntcal considerations.
Exports for the week ended Tuesday
were estimated BY the New York Cot
ton Exchange Service Bureau at 05.-
900 bales, compared with 100000 the
previous week and 90. 900 in the same
week last year. Exports for the sea-
son through August 12 were estimated

Editorial
TOWARDS A JUNIOR COLLEGE

AS TIME GOES on it will be found that the idea Of
a Junior college for the Virgin Islands is neither as re-
mote nor as far-fetched as it seems at first blush. There
is a very distinct possibility that with careful study such
a college could be brought into being and serve a very
important need.
AS MATTERS NOW stand only a select few go off
to college. They are the ones who are brilliant enough to
win scholarships, or the few, who, being fortunate
enough to have parents financially fit, can go off to the.
college of their choice. But colleges are for more than
these. There are those who have a niche to fill, a contri-
button to make, a service to perform, yet, who could not
qualify on the basis of the top rung Of scholastic excel
lence.
THIS is NOT to say that the egghead does not have
his place. He does. In fact, there is need to recognize and
honor those who devote themselves to scholastic excel
lence for the sake Of it. But there is also the realization
that there is conscientious, Woodworking y~oungster
who dreams Of the day when he, too, can qualify, and
can make his mark. A Junior college on the spot will
give this type Of boy or girl an opportunity to set out on
his own.
ONCE THE NEED is established, then, we are sure,
the place, the buildings, the equipment and the like
could be found, and there are many ways Of finding
them. AS for a faculty, there is an increasing number Of
men and women who have done advanced work in spe-
cialized fields and whose training could be utilized in
this connection.
WE COULD USE a junior college. The next step is
to Justify its existence in terms Of such need. Then
comes the task Of setting up a plan which would CON
vince the powers that be that this need could be met.
This combination, properly put together, could bring
favorable results
