By the Associated Press. Secretary Jardine has decided that the Department of Agriculture has no control under the present law to correct manipulative operations in the cotton futures market, and that additional legislative authority is necessary before any really effective investigation can be undertaken. Complaints have been made to the Secretary by members of Congress and others that futures trading on certain of the cotton exchanges had been the subject of manipulation to the detriment of the cotton growers, and action to correct the conditions was asked. The Secretary said he was aware of the situation and had repeatedly condemned manipulation in the {futures market for agricultural products. In the case of grain, he said, the grain futures act has been able to deal effectively with situations scmewhat comparable to those alleged to exist in the cotton market, but the present cotton statute does not give him authority to inquire formally into subject of the complaint.
