Cotton Trade Conference Adopts Reforms and Warehouse Plan
The conference endorses stricter cotton handling from pick to bale, favoring square Egyptian bales and extended warehouse storage with labeled bales showing weights. It backs ginning compress systems, housing of green cotton, and means to curb speculative trading. Delegates plan further international meetings and consider national laws to abolish gambling in exchanges.
