STATUS OF THE
COTTON MARKET
WELL KNOWN COTTON MAN ANI»
WRITER OF NEW ORLEANS
MAKES STATEMENT.
Special to The Favorite.
(By Walter Parker.!
New Orleans, Sept. 14.—Europe’s
war has progressed far enough to de-
velop phases which convince students
of trade that the established system
of international commerce—the only
system the business men of America
have been trained to work under—
will not be destroyed. In other words,
far seeing men are now convinced that
the Teuton’s industrial system, which
in late years has harassed English-
men, Frenchmen and Americans, the
fear of which has been a big factor
in spreading trade pessimism since
the war began, will not gain domina-
tion over world business as a rtsult of
the war.
This, of course, means that such
merit as the Teutonic system pos-
sesses will prevail only through the
Blow process of evolution in peaceful
times and not suddenly by the might
of arms.
The effect of this conviction on the
minds of cotton men cannot fail to be
felt in a bigger way, since they now
are beginning to realize that the shock
to commerce and trade will be that of
temporary checks rather than revolu-
tionary change.
New avenues of trade will be open-
ed to America, and the fact that the
system of carrying that trade on will
differ in no important respect from
the economic system that has existed
all along must soon engender a decid-
edly better feeling.
Thus it follows that the cotton tffde,
more and more, will lose its fcgr of
the future, that the promised surplus
from the growth of 1914 will com* to
be regarded as a means of encourag-
ing expanding consumption, that prof-
itable markets for food crops will au-
tomatically reduce the acreage plant-
ed to cotton, and that the impulse
given diversified farming will assure
sustained prosperity and a greater
of price making influence in
the South during many years to come.
Meanwhile, a great deal is being
done throughout the belt to assist the
farmer in withholding his cotton un-
til a satisfactory market shall have
been developed. Warehouses are be-
ing erected in practically every coun-
ty. Many of these are being bonded
in order that warehouse receipts may
be used as collateral for emergency
currency. The buy-a-bale movement
has attained large proportions Many
merchants are holding farmers’ cotton
with price wide open, thus protect-
ing his accounts and the farmer too
In the very near future the cotton ex-
changes are expected to find a way
to reopen the Kings to hedge trad-
measfre
From all of which, in the last few
days, a distinct tendency toward great-
er confidence in the future of the cot-
ton market has begun to develop, and,
as a consequence, interior values have
advanced a half to a cent a pound.
On Sept. 29 delegates representing
the farmers, merchants and bankers
of all the cotton growing states will,
on the call of the Southern Cotton As
soclation, assemble in convention at
New Orleans. At this meeting the
farmers all over the South will be ad-
vised to hold for a minimum price
to be named then. Unless that price
be a low one some farmers will prob-
ably sell under it. But, in any event,
the suggestion then made will serve as
a guide and a standard, and it would
be folly to presume that such a price
suggestion, if it be based on the cost
of production, with due regard for the
financial and trade difficulties creat-
ed by the war, would fail effect on
the market.
Evidently the cotton market
passed through its darkest hour.

In these days of piping pessimism

who makes the trains saw a drum-

said he had hail a good business—not
in Arkansas or Louisiana or Ohio, but

was very good. To prove this state-
