ONOLONA MISS. DEC. II, 1919

Messrs. w. Z. Savage, A. L..
J}goe ard L. Rosenbaum have
teen appointed members of the
lcca. committee to have charge
che distribution of the cotton
=. fund in this territory. They
6 AT good business men ano
t interests of the fund and OF
t Sc who have to deal with the
c umittee are in safe hands,
b.. we predict that this commit
tee viii not be overburdened ir
passing on loans. We thin
their principal work will be If
explaining to the people the
workings Of the pool.
while We have not discuss
ed the matter with the local
bankers, we are of the opinion
that very little, if any, of this
fund will be used here. AS we
view the conditions under which
the loans are made, the southern
banks do not get a square deal,
Besides the benefits to accrue
from the workings of this fund
a . not to be had by the people
v 0 should have these benefits
AID who most need hem the
farmer. 1t is of small concern
to the common run Of people anC
to the banks Of the South,
whether spectators and manu-
~facturers are able to hold cotton
for a higher price or not. After
the cotton leaves the farmers
hands and is concentrated III
Hundred bale lots, the money foI
general distribution is already
lost to the community and il
is Of small consequence whether
the rich holders are to be made
richer by reason of easy money
or whether they shall take the
whole responsibility of their risk
and perhaps lose on the deal.
1t is the money in first hands
that counts in making up the
prosperity Of a community.
AS we view it, it is still up to
the farmer to make his OWL
arrangements to hold his cotton
and find financial aid as best he
can for another year. Our
farmers have always got by and
they will do so again. They
will be obliged to use a little
more economy than has been
the case for the past few year,,
but there will be no real suffer
ing.
