THURSDAY, SEPT. 1, 1921
The following letter will be read
with interest by farmers with cotton
to sell:
Aug. 25, 1921.
Deaj Sir:
Seven years of subnormal consumption
of cotton goods has created a
scarcity that more than offsets the
world's reduced buying power;
coupled with the fact that if the^
same sum of money were expended
during the coming year as was spent
by the ultimate consumer during the
past twelve months, present prices
Avould furnish a demand for more
raw cotton than would be obtainable.
This, in our judgment, solves the
consumption problem which is now
agitating converter' and retailers and
tends to a stability for the prices of
couon goocis.
Some of the larger converters
have this week disclosed their attitude
by placing orders at top prices
as far ahead as the mflLs will accept.
Mill stocks of raw cotton in America
and abroad are down to a minimum
and regardless of what may be
feared for the general, financial situation,
the mills will be compelled to
buy steadily, even though they continue
upon a hand to mouth basis.
The new crop promises to be so
small that the farmer is practically
assured of a steady demand for his
cotton in sufficient volume to equal
the movement of the new crop cotton
to market during the period of
the heaviest movement. With the
statical position becoming stronger as
the season progresses, we do not concur
in the generally expressed belief
that the new crop will prove a
weight.
Mill takings are about 2f> per cent
greater than last year despite the
strained financial situation. While
this indicates' a consumption several
million hales beyond pre-war stand.ards,
it also indicates a c^rry-over at
the end of the present season, which
will allow the mills to barely get
through comfortably to the next
year's supply. '
The reason a partial paralysis of
production exists in the chief industrial
nations, is not because the
world has no need for commodities,
but simply because they cannot be
produced at a price which consumers
are able to pay. The reason is not in
the cost\of raw material, but in the
cost of manufacture. Ilight standards
of life disappear in the imperative
necessity to . live?and workers
must produce to live. All of this
has an obvious relation to the world's
situation today. When labor decides
to do a fair day's work for a fair
day's pay, the wheels of commerce
will again.function. Building will become
active, traffic will be heavy, pay
rolls will increase, confidence will be
restored and there will be the ability
to buy, and the capacity for cheaper
production enlarged. ?
Tha' the tide has turned strongly
in this direction, there' is abundant
evidence ' both in American and
, iiuroau.. rtr.fieiier spirit exists between
. employers ami workmen ami
there- "is a better outlook in the industrial
world than has obtained for
a long time.
The news of yesterday was all constructive.
Manchester reported activity
in cloths. .Silver was higher.
.Cables reported the textile trades in
Germany. Austria, Czccho-Slovakin,
.Finland.'Spain and Holland as much
Improved. The French. Government
will heln the textile indusfries in the
devastated regions. North Carolina
cotton strikes have ended and the
troops have boon withdrawn. Fall
River sales are increasing decidedly.
Retailer's stocks are low.
We reiterate our advice to our
Southern fripnds, to market their cottop
with deliberation, here is no occasion
for haste and as the season
progresses, it will bp disclosed that,
^cofrton is in a strong nosition. It is
imperative for the welfare of the '
wotfd that the South should next
year raise a large cron. and it is oh..
yious that a price, not below 15c. basis
middling, should he obtained for the
* present sunply.
i Yours very truly,
"r.'T * J. W. Jay & Co.

well be heeded.
