The "Peopie-Sentine! Is not Tpief-
tioning the accuracy of the recent
cotton crop estimate* of the IT S.
Department of Agriculture, which
have caused a loss of millions of dol
lars to the Southern fanners, but
V e do question the necessity for these
frequent official guesses which bene
fit nobody except the speculators and
those who want to get the South’s
chief money crop year after year at
less than the cost of production. And
no less a writer than Arthur Bris
bane, the highest paid editorial writer
in thfe United States, concurs in this
opinion. As Mr. Brisbane aptly sums
up the situation, these large crop
estimates merely serve to put foreign
and domestic buyers on notice that
a large crop has been made and they
can get it at greatly reduced prices
by holding off ii\ making their pur
chases. On the other hand, as we
have seen demonstrated during the
past few months, if the Department
issues a report that is favorable to
an advance tn prices and would, there
fore tend -to benefit the producer,
Wall Street refuse? to believe in its
accuracy and depresses the market.
It seems to be absurd to say that the
price is governed wholly by the law
of supply and demand. In spite of
a brisk demand this fall on the part
of the mills, cotton has declined
steadily in price, there being a differ
ence of more than $30 n bale between
the high and low levels. We do not
Wlieve thaf this drastic decline in the
price of the raw material has been
reflected in the prices for the finish
ed product.
As Mr. Brisbane points out, the
government does not make semi
monthly estimates of steel production
or dabble along that line with other
industries. Of course not. The pro
ducers wouldn’t stand for it a min
ute. Then why persist in a practice
that works havoc with the cotton
growing industry? If estimates are
a necessary evil attendant upon the
production of cotton, let’s make them
as few and far between as possible.
For our part, we wouldn’t object to
seeing them abolished altogether.
the plaintiff in this action will apply
to the Court for the relief demanded
in the Complaint.
