vwsvmiRAij cotton standards.
Efforu tQ Secure Adoption by Foreign
Kiehangca of Official American
Once.
Washington. March 34.?The estab?
lishment under the terms oi the
United State* Cotton Futures Act of
offtctal cotton standards for the Unit?
ed States has been accompanied by
an earnest effort to secure the adop?
tion of these standards by the cotton
trade in Europe as well as In this
country. A brief history of this move?
ment Is contained in Service and Reg?
ulatory Announcements No. 7 of the
Office of Markets of the United States
Department of Agriculture, which has
Just been published.
Although the attempt to secure the
adoption abroad of the now American
official standards was not altogsther
successful, this new publication shows
that much has been accomplished to?
ward .bringing about uniformity of
standards. For various reasons the
Liverpool Cotton Association did not
see fit to adopt the American official
standards, by. has revised its stand?
ard to a form which is said to accord
at least 1ft value with the American
standards and which replace by a
single set the three sets formerly in
use, representing respectively up?
land, gulf and Texas cotton.
This triple standard seems to have
grown up in Liverpool betwoen 1S33
and 1913. It seems also to have been
the result of a process of evolution
caused by the Increasing necessities
of the cotto i trade and was built UP
from time to time by the addition of
types or boxes of standards.
When the United States Cotton Fu?
tures Act was passed and exports be
gnn the work of preparing the new
standards required, the desirability
of securing universal adoption for
the now standards was recognized.
For reasons given In dotall In Ser?
vice and Regulatory Announcements
No. 7, however, it was fou 1 " ido
siraldo to adopt the Liverpoo. stand?
ard h for upland cotton. In order,
therefore, to explain the proposed
American standards and to urge their
udoption In England, Germany and
France, two members of the Depart?
ment of Agriculture visited Europe In
the fall of 1914.
I
A number of conferences with rep?
resentatives of the Liverpool Cotton
Association were held and It seemed
at one time probable that this asso?
ciation would adopt the American
standards, one or two minor changes
having been made at their request.
Tho association, however, was Uf -
willing to tako definite action until
March 1. 191 ft. It was iinposiiible un?
der the law for the American govern?
ment to defer until thut date the
promulgation of the American stand?
ards and accordingly no agreement on
standards with Liverpool was reach?
ed.
On December IB, 1914, the official
cotton st&ndi nl* of tho United States
wore established and promugltaed and ;
their use on the future exchanges be?
came practically compulsory on Feb?
ruary 18, 1915. They have been
adopted voluntarily by all of the
leading spot cotton exchanges .of the
United States.
The representatives of the depart?
ment also visited Bremen and Havre
and conferred with German and
French eottoi) merchants in regard
to the adoption of the American
standards by those exchanges. The
Havre exchange has taken no action,
but the question is still open with
Bremen and that exchange has stated
Its expectation of adopting the stand?
ards if they prove to be suited to the
conditions of the cotton trade at
Bremen. It is believed that these
conferences did much to promote
uniformity in cotton grades for the
future, but owing to the disturbed
conditions caused by the war no defi?
nite agreements were possible.
PREPARE FOR PYTHIANS.
Plncwood Expects to Have Big Recep?
tion for Visitors.
Plnewood, March 23.?One of the
largest reception given here in Py?
thian circles for seasons will be the

to tho grand lodge officers and dele?
gates in attendance here for the occa?
sion of the annual meeting of the
6th district convention with this lodge
for the first time. All the commit?
tees have taken upon themselves to
make the banquet a never-to-be-for?
gotten success, the universal slogan
at this time. Preparedness Is the
town/t slogan to receive the visitors.
A full representation from each lodge
In the district Is looked for and ar?
rangements have oeen completed for
their entctrainment. On account of
the late arrival of the trains at night
?10 o'clock?delegates from George?
town, Lugoff, Camden and other dis?
tant points had best leave home on
2'Jth, if they intend to come by rail; if
they motor across, come either by
Surutcr or Manning.
HFItKLUA HASN'T DESERTED.
American Consul at Cliihnahua Wires
That Curranza Commander Is There
Washington, -March 24.?Consul
IiOtchcr at Chihuahua, wired the State
department today that Gen. Herrera
is there With his troops and the re?
ports that ho had deserted were un?
founded.
Consul Letchcr's message was tho
first direct word from Chihuahua In
two days. Its rocelpt caused much
relief, officials accepting It as proof
that Carrunza still has control of his
forces. After the cabinet meeting
officials stated that tho situation as a
whole is much better.
Messages from both the east and
west coasts of Mexico report every?
thing quiet. Thore L no word from
Tamplco, however, and tho possibility
that Americans are in danger thore
caused somo uneasiness.
The cabinet meeting determined to
oppose the Sherman resolution author?
izing volunteers but an understanding
was arrived at whereby a similar res?
olution can quickly pass if necessary.
