v SUGGESTS CHANGES
Columbia. Jan. 24.?The general assembly
of South Carolina is urged in
a statement issued last night by J.
Skottowe Wannamaker, president of
the American Cotton Association, to
mjake certain amendments in the
South Carolina Warehouse act. Mr.
Wanamaker urges that a commission
of seven, one from each congressional
rvn or-of) fori cn-nnpratp with
the warehouse commissioner and that
the commissioner be given authority
to license warehouses.
"The South Carolina legislature,"
said Mr. Wannamaker. "by makingcertain
amendments to the warehouse
act can make an act that will furnish
model warehouses for the entire cotton
belt.
"The present act has many admirable
features. At the annual convention
of the South Carolina division of
the American Cotton Association,
however, it was decided to urge the
General Assembly to amend this act to
permit the state warehouse commissioner
to issue licenses for wareTiniisps
, (
"The cotton industry is gradually
being put upon an economic basis. A
bale of cotton should have the grade
stencilled upon it; we should have licensed
graders, men whb have taken
a thorough course in grading, stapling
and fibering of cotton. The time is
fast approaching when our colleges
will put on courses on the business
side of agricuture. Europe has been
for years past spending vast sums in
this way, the gerat universities turning
out men thoroughly equipped for the
business side Of life. As an example, j
Oxford University, England, with
A
Prof. Todd at the head of a depart- j
ment of economics, teaches its young j
men in addition to a regular commer- j
cial training, every phase of the cot- |
ton industry.
"We export from 60 to 65 per cent, j
of our cotton. This cotton is bought
subject to acceptance in Europe so
that today, although we have been
producing cotton since 1735 in South

"With an amendment to the South

as a board with the warehouse
j commissioner, licenses could be isi
sued to men who are Thoroughly
I equipped for handling the business
I side of the industry, as well as the
j business side of our products. It. will
j be necessary that we follow the course
followed in England, which is the best
of its kind in the world. We must
teach grading, fibreing and stapling
and every detail of the cotton indus!

j "An act requiring that cotton be
i graded and the grade stencilled upon

benefits to the cotton industry. It
would be the first step toward the

"With a chain of warehouses
J throughout the entire cotton belt, unij
