Harvey Jordan, of the Southern Cot
ton association, annonced today that,
beginning. the latter part Of July ne
would address mass meetings IN ev-
erv state of the cotton belt. Prea-
dent Jordan will discuss his investi-
cations in Europe in regard to the
baling, handling and marketing OF
American cotton.
He will urge on the farmers the
necessity of as slow "a movement OF
cotton as possible in order to main
tain high level Of prices. In this
connection, Mr.. Jordan declared THAT
the price of cotton next fall, he be-
lieyed, would be the highest in twen-
-ty wears.
The first Of the mass meetings will
be held in North and South Carolina.
On July 10 he will speak at Garner,
Wake county, N. c., and at Raleigh
on July 20. Meetings Will be held at
Spartanburg, S. c., ON July 80, Un-
ION ON July 20, and Gaffney on Ju-
iy 81.
Leaving these two states, Mr.. Jor-
dan will go to Texas, and In that
state he will speak at ten Of the larg-
est cotton concentrating points IN the
state. Leaving Texas he will go to
Arkansas, thence TO Louisiana, then
to Mississippi and Alabama, and will
finish his campaign in Georgia in the
latter part Of August.
Mr.. Jordan will be accompanied on
his tour by General Organizer E: D.
Smith. of South Carolina, commonly
known as the "Cyelone Orator" Of
the Southern Cotton association. Mr.
T--7<,.r and Mr.. Smith have the co

pect fer cotton next season, Presl-
dent Jordan said: .. -. .
'sIt is fine. I believe we shall rea-
ize r:'oes l:i9her than we have re-
ceivei:: For twenty years. Every lndl-
catic., .-rin4s to that fact, and shall
espe. LILY urge oa the farmers IN my
spec IS the necessity of a slow nlove-
mel so as to maintain as high a lev
elf prices as possible. "
President Jordan said that he eT;-
pected good ottendanees at the meet
ings. He asks the general cooperation
of the press in this great farmers
movement.
President Jordan's observations ON
his European trip will be of more
than usual interest to cotton growers.
While abroad he took particular pains
to study cotton conditions there as
they affected the buying and manu-
facture Of the staple.
He saw and compared he foreign
cotton with American, and compared
their methods of baing. He talked
with manufacturers, and learned their
needs. He also 7 noted interesting
things about European business meth
ods as compared with American. :
These observations he will embody
in the series cf speeches he proposes
to make through the cotton belt. He
will also observe crop conditions in
the belt.

here to-day. The exercises were held
AZ the Presbyterian Church. under the
auspices Of Mildred Lee Chapter. L. d.
G.. OF Martinsville. Judge i. w.
Saunders delivered the address. which
for appropriateness Of sentiment and
beauty OF language deserves a place
among the. Virginia classics.
Judge saunders. whilst placing Lee
among the great ca plains or the world
dwelt more upon the grandeur and
beauty Of his character than upon
his military achievements He declared
that Lee was unique in this-that.
though modern biography had shattered
so many idols and laid bare the faults
and fallinEs Of so many OF the great
men Of former days. yet IL had found no
flaw in the character Of Lee. He com
pared Lee to Gustavus AdoIphus. and
said he was the gcra ndest character
which Virginia had ever given to the
nation He spoke especially OF his
ma gnanimity and purity OF life. and OF
the tributes paid him by men OF other
countries. Judge Saunders was intro
ducec by John ". Carter. Esq. OF
