By the Ass Press. A charge that cotton market opera- tions of Anderson, Clayton & Co., Houston, Tex., cotton factors, in March of 1923, which amounted to price ma- nipulation were “conducted under the di- rect auspices of the Federal trade com- mission” was placed before the Senate cotton slump investigating committee today by Arthur R.

The process of “hedging” in fhe futures market was particularly abnor- mal, the witness sald, and in 1922 the “first serfous charges’ of manipulation were heard. “One very powerful interest, the Anderson Clayton Co., which came out of the war far richer than it went in,” he added, was sald to be “conducting covering operations here and there for the purpose of forcing prices for cer- tain months out of proper relation with other market factors.” This con- tinued into 1923, he continued, and the March operations of the Houston firm were under “direct auspices” of the Federal Trade Commission. He referred to Walter Twombly, former Trade Com- missfon representative, who s now dead, as the source of his Information. s ‘The old Greek philosophers con- demned suicide, but made an exception of the custom of old people drinking poison hemlock.
