Taking the cotton-growing South as a whole, the final purchasing power should be in excess of that of last year, which, in which Belding alleges was struck by a rifle bullet fired from one of the patrol boats, and took sworn state- ments from members of the Coast Guard and Mr. Belding and those cn the yacht during the incident.

REPORT YACHT ATTACK. = clally gratifying to know that sup- plies of cotton will be adequate to furnish consumers with cotton goods this season, for the country had three successive crop failures during _the period 1921, 1922 and 1923. Last year's production totaled 10,140,000 bales. Production in 1922 was 9,762,- 000 and the 1921 crop totaled only 7,954,000 bales. Yleld Bringing High Prices. | ‘The South will enjoy nearly as high value for this year's crop as it did | for the 1923 crop, ‘even though farm- | ers may not be getting quite as much {per unit this year as last. The estl- mated farm value of cotton as of | December 1, 1923, was $1,563,347,000. | Prices to the farmer at that time |were rullng around 32 -cents per pound. The per pound price today is about 22 cents. In other words, a |reduction of about 30 per cent has {occurred this year in cotton prices. { Based on prevalling prices, the farm- ler will receive about $1,408,000,000 {tor the 1924 production of cotton—a Details of Firing on Belding Craft The Rocl i;oro Sent Here. 1717 R St. N.W.
