BIG COTTON ACREAGE
NEXT YEAR PREDICTED
Atlanta^ Ga-, Dec. 14.—Acreage
seeded to-«otton in 1923 in the South
will be just as large as is physically
and humanly possible. Such, at least
tfee prediction of cotton men in re
ports received by dealers in Atlanta.
Amid the uncertainties that be*
cloud to the staple represents the
one practical certainty on the thres*
hold of the new year, according
Frank Inman, one of the Sooth’s best
known cotton men here. Other
ton men take the same view as
Inman. The Cotton Storage Finance
Company, of which Mr. Inman
treasurer, have received reports from
all sections of the South which bear
out the prediction of a vast cotton
acreage.
The noted Candler warehouses,
now in charge of the Cotton Storage
Finance Campany, are storing
ton for the Georgia Co-operative As
sociation, which is the big agency for
cooperative marketing of the staple
in Georgia.
Free Storage For Seed.
Growers in Georgia, particularly
in the northern section of the i
have joined the movement started
in Atlanta by the Atlanta Com
mercial Exchange and representatives
of the city and country banks, to
improve the quality of seed 1
used in the next cotton crop. The
The Cotton Storage Finance Company
with its immense storage facilities
the Candler warehouses, have offered
free storage space for all cotto n seed
shipped into Georgia on account of
the campaign to improve the seed of
the State.
The imperative need for increased
cotton yield has been consistently 1
shown in figures which have been
compiled bere. These statistics dis
close that because of the rapidity
with which consumption is outrunn
ing world production, the loss in the
world’s reserve supply of cotton for
the seasons 1921-22 and 1922-23 will
be slightly more than 8,500,000 bales
The decrease for 1921-22 was 5y
306,000 bales, giving a total shrink
age for the two seasons 8,603,000
This loss, as pointed out by
Inman and other cotton men in At
lanta, is without precedent in the
history of the whole industry and,
cotton men declare, it makes it abso
lutely necessary to greatly increase
production or to restore the uneven-
balance as between production and
onsumption by substantially de
creasing the latter.
Less consumption, ft is pointed
out, is neither expected nor desired.
It would seem that conditions are
about right for a bumper crop at
top price, as the world seems t
adjusted for such a program, but,
ne Atlanta businesi man puts it,
wonder what the biggest growers
have up their sleeves when they
predict an oldtime bumper crop, with
the weevil still unconquered.”

NAVAL COMPETITION
HAS BEEN RESUMED
(Continued trom page one)
with some mud, but passable.
Road Forecast.
Fair weather is Indicated, and much
'colder during the next several days
cruisers and suraarine programs w
planned abroad, adding:
"In other words, competition is
again in the single direction to which
the unratified agreement (the Wash
ington naval treaty) does not extend
and if it be allowed to go unchecked
the purse strings again must be
laxed and this government, like all
others, will be constrained to launch
program to the extent
sary to keep up at least abreast of
any of the other powers.”
President Harding was not consult
ed by the committee with relation
its limitation conference request.
The project for negotiations apparent
surprise even to naval
officials. It was originated by Chair-
Kelley of the naval appropria
tion subcommittee.
The chief reason prompting Mr.
Kelley to propose a new naval con
ference was understood to have been
the light cruiser program recommend
ed by the navy general board. No
mention of this is included in the
published copies of committee hear
ings on the bill. The program urged
however, as necessary to keep the
United States navy on a -parity with
other navies in erasers included six-
light cruisers, within the
10,000-ton size limitation of the
Washington treaty and to cost $168,-
000,000.
The committee also eliminated
from its published hearings testimony
of naval intelligence officers on tha
program of construction abroad.
