Intended to prohibit trading In fu Hires. found themselves woefully mista ken In their Judgment as to the effect that this news would have on values (imwn accustomed to such attacks by ambitious politicians, the, American rings kept on the even tenor of their way, dis counting legitimate developments as as fecting the crop outlook and the demand for actual ooton. There was a time a few years ago when the action taken by the house of representatives in Washington Tuesday would have sent cold shivers • lown the spines of all traders, and cotton would have been thrown overboard, re gardless of the effect on values. The In difference shown at this time was based on a conviction that the United States senate would hesitate to set the seal of its august approval upon such a piece of destructive legislation, even If that body had time to consider the measure In the short period that \ et remains of the pres ent congressional session. There is rea son to believe that the senate will give full considerstion to the economic effect that the passage of such ill-advised leg islation would have upon one of the na tion’s chief industries.
