Prof. Todd says that he has re signed from tho cotton growing com mittee of England, and that he is now devoting his entire time to his business as a consulting economist. "I am keen on cotton," said Prof. Todd, "and want to know all about tho American situation. I have al ways been Interested in the prob lems of the Southern cotton grow ers, and am in sympathy with their present, efforts. The greatest benefit would como to tho cotton industry in America through a reform of the present system of marketing. The growers have always been at a dis advantage in this respect, and I havo for years been urging the necessity of a change in this respect. I cer tainly hope that the movement this time through the American Cotton Association will be successful."

They have been hoping for and expecting figures which would point to a production of at least 15,000.000 bales. I have been warning them that this figure was a maximum, and from recent informa tion I fear that it may be much Hiller. This lessened production, d tho great increase in the cou su nip'i on of cotton by the American Indus: \es worries us. It makes us wonder ..-hore our supply is coming from. 1 believe that tho amount of cotton which will bo used light here In this country is considerably larger than you anticipate." When asked ab.ait tho activities of the .Japanese in purchasing largo lots of cotton machinery .in this coun try, Prof. Todd said thal it was to be exepcted. "The Japanese," he de clared, "are the Scotchmen of the East. They are on the lookout for every promising opportunity. They bought our Indian cotton at high prices when no ono else would show even a passing interest in it. They will undoubtedly become an import ant factor in the future cotton in dustry." Tho Empire Cotton Growing Com mittee, according to Prof. Todd, ls now well organized after the inter ruption caused by the war, and it will use all the means in its power to bring about a largo cotton produc tion throughout the British Empire "Tho committee," he explained, "will receive substantial contribu tions from the government and the trade. Tho plan to levy six pence per bale on ?ill cotton imported into Great Britain will almost certainly go through, which will furnish $500, OOO a year to further the work. This amount, of course, is no. sufficient to do anything in the way of run ning plantations or actually growing cotton, but it will be used entirely to pay tho expenses of administra tion, education and research. Our only hone toward production must come from educational work among tho native agricultural populations We must tench them bow to grow cotton, furnish them with the proper seed and prove to them that it will be worth while financially. This will take a great many years, and there is no chance of imm?diate relief.
