J. W. Dunn, real estate man, and

act as purchasing agents for cotton

assistance most.
Mr.. Hammond and Mr.. Dunn will
have the cotton weighed and graded

the buyers do not object Mr.. Ham
mond and Mr.. Dunn would prefer to
have the cotton placed on law range
or on the court house square for a

they will cooperate with the COM

To the Members of the Southern Cot

To the Members of the Southern Cot
ton Congress:
The following letter was received on
the Sth, and l hasten to give it out
that the farmers may see how the
matter stands now. AS chairman OF
the Cotton congress committee on Au-
gust 13 l went to see Mr. McAdoo, and
as a member of the National Farm
ers' Union committee On the W1ole
matter of more effective aid from the
government, l will go to Washington
Thursday to remain until we do Sc
cure government control of the in
terest on loans made for emergency
purposes or direct loans to the farm
ers or to associations of farmers, on
as favorable terms as to the banks.
/ am convinced that we will not be
able to get this aid from the govern
ment or the needed aid from the
banks under government supervis-
ion on reasonable terms without leg
islative control of 1915 cotton acre
age. l would prefer uniform State
legislation, such as Col. Watson is
working for, but l shall look into the
advisability of national legislation, too,
We must have one or the other and
that quickly or the situation will be
beyond the place where even tie gov
ernment can have us from years of
distress. I am glad to see the de-
mand for legislative control so gen.
eral. Without it we are depending on
a ''broken leed." l shall be pleased
to have suggestions from home as to
what is wanted and what is being
done. The "buy-a-bale' movement is
fine and will immensely strengthen
the committee in its position.

E. w. Dabbs, Chairman Southern Cot
ton Congress, Mayesville, S. C.
Sir: I beg to acknowledge the re-
ceipt of your letter of the 14th ultimo,
written on behalf Of the Southern
Cotton congress, containing several
suggestions in the matter of the ac-
ceptance of cotton warehouse receipts
as security for the issue of additional
currency under the act Of May 80,
1908.
AS YOU will see from the inclosed
announcement of the secretary, such
receipts have been added to the list
of eligible securities to be used as a
basis for the issue Of currency. 1t is
impossible, however, for the govern
ment to control the rate Of interest
charged by the banks on loans to the
cotton growers.
Furthermore, the department be-
lieves there is adequate power under
existing law to issue through the ma
tional bank currency sufficient to meet
any reasonable demand that may arise
without extending the note issuing
privilege to State banks.
BY direction of the secretary:
Respectfully,
(Signed) VIM P. Malburn.

Insurance for Cotton.

Another aid to the cotton situation
comes from F. ]. Parham, State agent
Of the Florida Life insurance COM
pany, who says that he can write IN
surance, taking in payment therefor
cotton at the price of 10 cents
pound. Mr.. Parham has written to r.
H. McIaster, insurance commissioner,
to ascertain whether this scheme
would be legal, and in reply Mr. Nc
Master stated that he saw no reason
why the insurance companies and
agents should not accept cotton on
10 cent basis in payment for prem
iums for insurance.
"This cotton" Mr., Parham writes,
'I will agree to store and hold in
warehouse, borrowing such amount
on it as l can, and paying out OF
the money borrowed the amount due
to my company, and carrying the cot
ton until it reaches the market price
Of 10 cents, or more; per pound.
"I think We all know and recognize
that cotton is actually worth 10 cents
and more per pound, and it is the
duty of every person in our section
of the country to live up to this con-
viction. It's price is temporarily de-
pressed far below its real value by cir
cumstances over which neither the
South nor the country at large has
any control; and in the making OF
which circumstances this country had
no part Mr.. Parham further states
that this cotton will not be taken by
the company but by himself and his
agents as individuals,
In reply Mr.. McMaster writes: "The
eXigencies Of the case and the general
methods of doing business Of today
seem TO me to warrant me in saying
that there is no violation in law in
agents and insurance companies ac-
cepting cotton on 10 cent basis for

Mr.. Alexander also made public the
opinion of Justice Lamar. He upheld
the Georgia Supreme Court in its deci-

was made and denied the defendant
could not thereafter make a motion to
set aside the verdict on the ground that
he was not present when IT was re-
