nearly every part of the British em

tions were satisfactory last year, ac
cording to the annual report of the
British Cotton Growing Association.
It is generally admitted, says the
report that 1923 was ono of the most
unprofitable ever experienced in the
history of the cotton milling industry
In Great Britain, due to shortage of
raw materials. The great bulk of the
mills using American cotton worked
on short time, and the earning pow
er ot the operatives was seriously
curtsiled. This condition is being
overcome by the Increased produc
tion of the British colonies.
Attar detailing the progress made
In oottoa growing tn various parts
of tbe empire the report concludes:
"The Increased quantities of cot-
ton produced during the
many parts of the empire is very
gratifying, especially at a time when
the prospects for a greater produc
tion In America appear to lie getting
more remote every year. It cannot
be denied that the cotton industry
In (treat Britain has been passing
through the worst time it has exper
ienced since the cotton famine, and
there can be little doubt that the cost
of cotton goods, largely due to the
high price of the raw material, is
responsible to a great extent for the
poor demand from overseas markets.
The world supply of useful cotton
has been seriously curtailed as a re
sult of the recent failures of the
American crop, and with better trade
conditions the demand tor raw cot
ton would certainly have exceeded
the supply."

Los Angeles. June 20.— (A. P.)—
Statistics made public by the Los
Angeles Traffic Commission reveal
that Los Angeles streets are the most
congested in the United States.
In making the comparisons, traffic
at each intersection of the principal
streets outside of the downtown area
proper were recorded.
Some of the salient points which
the check disclosed were:
Los Angeles county, with 425.572
automobiles (tourists' machines not
included) represents 3 Vs per cent of
the total automobile registration of
the country.
Approximately 310,000 curs enter
the congested district every day. This
is said to be mire than the total
number of automobiles registered In
New York City.
Motor traffic at
Adams and Figueroa streets is de
clared the heaviest in the United
States. During the eleven and a half
hours of the day ot the check 69,797
cars traversed both streets of the In
tersection. The total registration ot
Los Angeles county is larger by 120,-
000 than that of New York.
The check shows that there are
three intersections in Los Angeles
that have a daily movement ot over
45.000 machines; six intersections
with between 40.000 and 45,000;
nine intersections with betweeu 35,-
000 and 40.000, and 23 more with a
movement of 30,000 to 35,000. The
figures show the traffic movenieut
for only one street ot each intersec
tion, that is, north and south traffic
or east and west traffic.
