COTTON PLANTERS DO NOT FAVOR POOL Unofficial Plan Suggested in England Liable to Hurt Prices. WASHINGTON, July 23. Informal pro posals that British Interests form a gi gantic 'cotton "pool" to buy America's cotton supply are not altogether satis factory to American cotton growers, It was learned today. Southern Senators and Representatives declared tho price and not tho purchaser Is the vital point. Fears were expressed that an English pool would not pay enough, even If It bought the bulk of tho American product. State Department ofllclals'sald such nn arrangement would havo to be directly botween the private Interests Involved. Tho Department was willing, however, to assist In any negotiations. Tho British proposal Is that the Gov ernment set asldo 1"5,000,000 to buy Amer ican cotton which. In pcaco times would ordinarily havo gone to England's en emies nnd neutrals, after which tho Brit ish would put cotton on her contraband list. It was not ofllclal, however.
