TWO-THIRDS CROP SAVS K D. SMITH JUNIOR SENATOR ISSUES STATE ME XT OX COTTOX. Urges l.> Cents Minimum?Thluks South Carolina Good Index as to Yield in Other States. Before leaving for the West, where he goes to speak for the Democratic OAnofAw XT' Cmith OTQVD /VI1 t *2 lausc, ouuatui iu. i/. kjiuuu gu v uul ~ statement in regard to tie present cotton crop. "From information at hand," saic the senator, "it is my opinion that this year's yield will amount to about twothirds of a crop, or about 13 to 13 1-S millions bales." Senator Smith says that, on accouni of what he thinks a comparatively short crop, cotton producers shoulc make every effort to obtain a highei nrinp rvmtirminar. he savs: "In view of the fact that for a number of years the size of the cottoi crop has been estimated from June tc November, I thought it best this yeai to wait until the bearing period was over before I should issue any statement in regard to the probable yielc of cotton. "I have not yet received responsefrom different cotton growing States as to the probable yield based upon + ^ ^ + f Af AI/1 ^ tr me actual uuuuiu ul uciuo ^v, the present time. Fairly Good Index. "South Carolina is a fairly good index as*to the yield of the cotton growing States. Taking the yield up tc the present as compared with last year, it does not indicate more than a two-thirds production. If this is a basis of comparison for the balance of the cotton growing States anc giving a liberal margin of excess, 1 c x- -a - A i 1 _ xo 13 1-3 minion uaies m cutluii ?uim seem to be the maximum. "The farmers of the South must moi forget that in spite of the enormous production of last year, and the large percentage of low grade cotton, thai after a temporary unwarranted depression, cotton rose again to 12 1-S and 13 cents. There is no reason save the lack of organization and a sensible financial system, why cottor should not be bringing today 15 cents a pound or more. If ever there was a time in the history of cotton growing when those who produce it shoulc exhaust every legitimate means in de manding a higher price, this is the year. "You have heard the cry of over production. Last year, according tc the figures of the department of agriculture and the census department, we produced 16,000,000 bales. This has teen absorbed by the trade at a price which, save for a short period, was far in excess of what might have beer hoped for had not there been an organized effort cn the part cf those who produce it to refuse to take less than a living price for their product This is one leacon. The other reason as powerful as this, was the determination on the part of the manufacturers in -1910-11 -to break the power o! the farmers' organization. The man uracturers attempted tc uo tins dj running short time thereby not consuming the amount of raw materia normally demanded, and leaving c surplus in spite of short crcps. This of course produced a scarcity of man ufactured goods. "When tne price in 1911-12 dropp c on account of the prediction of an enormous crop they of course bough' heavily to replenish exhausted stocks and to furnish an exhausted market So that the crop of 1911 has been con sumed to supply the artificial exhaus tion produced by the conditions abov< stated. "In several of my letters of las year I called attention to the fact tha from data carefully gathered the work needed from 16,000,000 to 20,000,001 of American cotton to supply its de anand. "It seems almost suicidal in the fac< of these facts that the South shoulc take less than 15 cents minimum. Hopes for United Effort. "I sinc'erely hope that throughou the country there shall be a unitec effort on the part of tile producers t( demand a fair and legitimate price. "You, the producers of cotton, mus not forget that eternal vigilance is th< price of success. "The cotton manipulator and specu later never ceases to look for ever; advantage in his favor. Why shoul you? A battle fought and won in on year does not mean a victory forevei An abundant crop made one year doe not guarantee an abundant crop th next; ana tnereiore me umv iiuye <_ salvation for the Southern cotto grower is to be eternally alert to hi own interests and by cooperation an organization ultimately settle tb question as to who shall name th price of his cotton. "Th -re a: .. &VA< I q .Aliens | seriously affect, the problem. One is i our banking system. This will probably come up at the next session of congress. I am persuaded that with a better financial system the problem that confronts us as cotton growers would be infinitely easier. Another is^ our system of domestic and foreign ?| marketing of our cotton. This in a j new way is closely allied with and dependent upon our financial system. ! Another is, the conflict of interests 1: which is perennial, constitutional, ac I i . _ it. _ i o t : coraing to me iaw ui nuinan uaiuir, l tli^s conflict between buyer and seller. It is inevitable that we as producers and sellers must show ourselves as [ well organized and intelligent in the ; sale of our cotton as the buyers are. "There are other facts which, if - the experiments that I hope to have completed in the near future seem, as t they indicate, will lend tremendous r strength to our position.
