COTTON GROWERS CONVENTION
To Be Held In New Orleans Jam
uary 74.36. The Waco Ware.
house Plan to Be Discussed.

Walter Parker, News correspondent New Orleans.
The discussions before the big cot
ton growers convention which is to be
held in New Orleans, January "a, %,
and %. will cover q wide range OF
subjects, crystalizing on the handling
of this years surplus, the reduction
of the acreage, and on plans for
warehOusing cotton under the control
of the producers themselves. All
three of these big subjects r OF
equal interest to the farmer, the
merchant and the banker of the South.
The handling of the surplus and the
reduction of acreage will have to be
discussed in their entirety, for no
definite plan for either has yet been
framed. The w~arehOusing matter,
however, has been developed to q
greater or less extent by the progress
made ON the 'WacO Plan which was
framed by the farmers and business
men of Waco, Texas, and approved
and elaborated by the farmers in
convention at st. Louis several
months ago. This plan provides for
local warehouses built on approved
plans in order that insurance and
other expenses will be minimized.
These warehouses are to be erected by
local companies to be owned and con,
trOlled by the farmers. A big central
company, also to be owned and ION,
trolfed BY the farmers, or II deemed
best, by the farmers, merchants and
bankers, is also provided for. The
local companies win be the units OF
the big company, but the local com.
panies will manage their own affairs,
guided and protected by the parent
company. The ''Wsco Plan, which
is generally regarded with approval
1t, will doubtless be discussed in all
its phases 1T New Orleans, and 1t has
been suggested that these delegates
who desire information in advance or
this subject write to Hon. Eugene
williams at Waco, Texas or
pamphlet recently issued by thu
Farmers, as it throws much light OF
the project. The pamphlets r ISSUED
gratis.
