Boston reported today that cotton

South are advising their clients to
cover their requirements at anything
like present prices. The feeling in
New England is that cotton may go

The world is
faced today with a shortage of cotton
supplies unparalleled since the Civil I
War.
If supply and demand continue to
make their laws felt for the remain-
der of this season and they have in
the past, 30 cents a pound cotton is
a certainty in (he near future and al
price of from 35 cents to to cents is I
probable before the next crop be-
comes available That is the general ;
opinion of the best informed cotton
men in the South and in New Eng
land as expressed in reports received
by wire within the lust 21 hours.
The cotton situation is of pressing
interest ot every man and woman in
the United States, for each is affected
to a greater or less degree by the
price and supply of this basic com-
modity.
F'oreign-grown cotton k', estimated
this year at ti.tUIP.OOO bales or 2.000.-
000 bales less than normal The
American crop, according to the most
accurate authorities is in the neigh-
borhood of H,.51X1,000 bales qf lint, or
about I0.O00.OO0 bales including lint-
ers. There will he therefore approx-
imately 15.1)011.0011 bales of American
cotton, including the carry-over from

I wish to emphasize the import-

that one of the greatest opportunities
