 Would Establish Warehouses
 No doubt many plans of solution Will be offered befoge the meeting. In several of the southern cotton growing states pertinent suggestions have been voiced by different ones and it is de- clared that some of these are now be- ing considered by the officials in their particular localities In Alabama a me m5er of the legislature brought for ward a plan that has been given fa- vorable considerat ton in a great many quarters. This is the suggestion of II A. Thompson of Greenville who fla vors the establishment of warehouses in the cotton growing sections of the state to be financed and the cotton cared for at the expense of the state Others have also expressed their views on this line and the general confer ence of ideas and plans at the Atlanta gathering will doubtless be of great benefit in the matter of reaching some solution.
