SOCIETYWOMAN BEGS
FROM DOOR TO DOOR
TO SAVE CITY'S HONOR

MACON, GA, Sept. 26.-Led by Mrs.
Dorothy Blount Lamar the citizens of
Macon are responding to the call for
funds with which to pay the balance of
$2,19S.50 owing on the monument to the
women of the South, which was unveiled
here last year,
The announcemnt of the bankruptcy
trustee of a Marietta Marble Company
that the monument would be torn down
and moved away aroused storm of pro-
tests, and movement is now under way
to raise the money.
Mrs. Lamar is going from door to door
soliciting money for the cause, and Post
master Harry Stillwell Edwards has vol
unteered to take the lecture and enter
tainment platform in a score of south
Georgia towns to donate the proceeds to
the fund. The monument was purchased
by the local Confederate veterans, who
raised all the money they could, and who
have failed to make the other payments.

DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Sept 26.-The weight
of supplies and the indifference on the
part of consumers seem to outweigh for
the present bullish weather and crop
developments. Liverpool again came in
dull and easy, with spots l point lower
New York support also seemed absent
for that market opened lower in spite of
bad weather news, and caused a CORE
spending decline here in December to
11.51. New York reports an unfavorable
technical condition of the market absence
of speculative short interest and gives
this as a reason for the lack of support
by bull operators
The weather, however is so bad that
pressure against bull interests was not
very pronounced and the market rallied
and settled around 11.56 for December
The map shows fair weather in Texas
and north Oklahoma, and cloudy else
where. Unusually low temperatures in
the northwestern quarter. General rains
in south Texas and the central states;
no rain and seasonable temperatures in
the eastern states, Heavy to killing frost
was reliably reported from many points
in Oklahoma, with temperatures of 80 de-
grees
Indications are for a slight rise in tenn
peratures in the Northwest but colder
and more rain for the central and east
ern belt. Some storm formation is
shown in the east Gulf, but the cold wave
over the belt is likely to control 1t and
keep it out of the belt. There is no longer
any doubt that the Oklahoma crop has
been considerably cut down by the cold
wave. Full facts will only be known
in a few days.

OF rice from Ningpo to relieve some of
the hundreds of thousands of starving
persons in the eastern half of Cheang

phoon washed away their crops and
drowned their live stock
Along the coast in the low-lying
country circling the bay of Chow, a
tidal wave killed thousands and their
bodies are strewn upon the beaches,
save where they were washed out into
the sea.
NO hopes remain that the band of
soldiers escaped death. Mutlny, which
was afterward quelled. broke out
among the soldiers when they were or

grave duty" The soldiers feared
death from pestilence If they ventured
into the storm swept districts. where
thousands of bodies had lain in the
open since the floods went down ten

SOU THERN VETERANS
MAY HOLD THEIR NEXT
REUNION IN SEPTEMBER

CHATTANOOGA, TENN, Sept. 20
The local camp Of the Confederate Vet
Grams is now attempting to decide upon
the actual date for the next annual re-
union, which meets in Chattanooga. It
was originally intended that the re-
union should take place in May, but
many camps throughout the South
seem to prefer a later date. Septem-
Der appears to be the most popular
month with the gray veterans.
General Bennett H. Young, COM
manderin chief, has notified Captain
L. r. Dickinson, of this city, that he
had been urged to set the date for the
reunion in September, but that he
would take no official action until some
decision had been reached by the local
camp and the other veterans were con-
