ALABAMA GOVERNOR
REFUSES To CALL A
MEETING LEGISLATURE
Especial to Times-Recorder)

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 5-The posi-
ton taken by Governor John M. Sla-
ton regarding the right of the state to
prohibit by drastic laws the produc-
ton of cotton or other crops is up
held by the state of Alabama, as voiced
by the attorney general, who holds
with Governor Slaton that such a
movement would be unconstitutional
and uncalled for.
Governor Emmett O'Neal, Of Alabama,
has written the Georgia executive a
Letter complimenting him highly for
his stand on this question.
Your address to the people of Geor-
gle was the most logical and
statesmanlike presentation of the is
sue that has been made" wrote the
Alabama governor. 81 congratulate
you most sincerely in securing the aid
for the farmers in your state which
MIR. Asa G. Gamblers cotton loan plan
offers"
Governor O'Neal said he had written
to each member of the Alabama legis-
lature asking their views on cotton
reduction laws and nearly every re-
ply was against a special session for
such a purpose.

NEW YORK BANK SURPLUS IS PILING Up;
EXPORTS FOR The WEEK BREAK RECORD

had a surplus of $14,914,95O, which is
more than twice that which they held
at the end of the corresponding week
of last year and almost twice as large
as that of two years ago.
Another very notable feature of the
statement is the fact that the banks
continue to gain in specie and legal
tenders despite the steady stream of
gold to Canada in settlement of this
country's foreign obligations. The
banks gained $646S,00O in cash during
the week, of which $4,7SS,OOO in COLO.
These gains, coupled with a moderate
decline in deposits, caused an increase
of $6,4S1,OOO in surplus.
While the domestic money situation
is continuing to show improvement,
the course of our international fnan-
cial relations is equally reassuring.
Sterling exchange continues to display
downward tendency and reichmarks
have declined to unprecedently low
levels. In spite of the difficulties that
apparently lie in the way of exports
to Germany, the volume of reichmark
exchange averaged about 81 900, 900 a
day during the week, whereas there
was steady enlargement in the vol
ume of sterling bills representing pur-
chases of supplies by the belligerents.
Investments Increasing
The feature of the financial situa-
ton which was most gratifying to
Wall street was the evidence of in
creasing investment interest not only
in unlisted securities and short-term
notes, but in the so-called curb mar
ket Saturday there were advances

FLYING WEEVIL
ALREADY COMING
This DIRECTION

In Americas, as elsewhere in south
Georgia, there is alarm felt at the
statement given out yesterday by Mr..
e. Lee Worsham, state entomologist.
to the effect that the dread boil wee
vii is ready to strike on the west bor-
der of the state and will be here in
force to destroy the next cotton crop.
AS though the situation, agricultural
ly, was not sufficiently serious, the
boil weevil is to be an added danger.
And he will be worse than cent cot
ton, for the price might change, while
the weevil hangs on.
Mr.. Worsham has been in south
Georgia this week, making investiga-
tons. The weevil, he says, has al
ready pushed his way to the Chatta-
hoochee river.
eve may expect the boil weeviT
in Georgia, however, before the end
of the year." Mr.. Worsham said, "as
the weather conditions are favorable
and he will begin to fly in search of
food on account of the absence OF
cotton.
THE top crop of cotton throughout
that section has been pretty will
killed out by frost In many sections
something like rs per cent of the top
crop has ben destroyed. AS a result
of this the late weevils will find fod
scarce and will begin to fly in search
of it. I would not be surprised to
see them in Georgia within a short
time now as the winter gets more Sc
we're, they will go into Information
until spring when they will come out
to attack the new crop.
"The farmers of that section of the
state are pretty we'll instructed as to
the effect of the weevil's coming
They have been working on early
varieties of cotton for some time now
and know just what is necessary to
protect their crops"
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1914-11-05
SURPLUS COTTON
Still BLOCKING
The WAREHOUSES;
DEMAND is STILL LIMITED WITH
OUT PROSPECT OF IMMEDIATE
RELIEF

Americas warehouses, old ones and
new ones alike, are still piled up to
the metal roofs with cotton bales for
which there is very little demand. The
four old warehouses are filed; three
new ones recently completed are like
wise filled, while two others still in
process of erection could be filled to
their capacity of 5000 to 10000 bales
from the supply stored upon farms in
Sumter county. A very remarkable
condition, and one never before exist
ing here.
Farmers would willingly sell were
there a market-even at cents-but
this price is offered only for the finer
grades, and there is no more such cot
ton. Any demand for other grades is
quickly supplied, but only an occas-
ional buyer comes now.
There are about $4,000 bales in the
Americas warehouses today, and TO-
600 held on Sumter farms. Truly a
glut of cotton. The same doleful sto-
ry is told in other towns in south
Georgia.
While the slight demand keeps up,
Americas factors are urging the sale
of as much as can be taken. In any
event there will be very heavy unsold
surplus to carry over, and the load
should be made as light as possible.
The only people who can afford to
plant at all next spring are those who
do so with practically no money cost.
1t is estimated that the unusued sur
plus this year will be fully 100000
bales, so that crop of even 10000
600 bales will put the country in a
still worse fix next year. 1t is argued,
therefore, that any planter who in
vests money in cotton growing next
year will richly deserve the loss he
will incur.
Despite the bumper grain crops, it
is now apprehended that the surplus
will not be adequate to the demand.
The situation in this regard cannot
fail to become further aggravated, so
that foodstuffs are just about as GER
tain to be higher as cotton to be lower.
The moral is, the less cotton and he
more food crops, the better for the
farmer.

Protection for Banks

In the meantime, the action of Sec
rotary of the Treasury McAdoo and
Comptroller Williams in giving the
banks to understand that they will be
protected in basing their loans on the
closing prices of July 80, is being
warmly commended, not only among
bankers, but among brokers. 1t is re-
warded as an extremely courageous
act on the part of these two officials,
and it has had a most reassuring eff
feet on credit. 1t will greatly aid the
banks in making their valuations not
only of the collateral in their loans,
but in their quarterly reports to the
comptroller. 1t has already been at
tended by more liberal disposition on
the part of New York banks toward
borrowers and is generally regarded
as one of the main causes of the
strength shown by listed stocks during
the last few days.
Cotton Exchange Expected to Open
The announcement was made Satur-
day afternoon by Edward NJ. Weld,
chairman of the conference committee
of the New York cotton exchange, that
the corporation syndicate plan for TAX
ing over unliquidated straddle cotton
had been perfected, subject to the or
der of the court regarding the dispo-
sition of the S. H. P. Pell contracts.
This order, it is expected, will be
handed down Monday. Members of
the cotton exchange will be asked to
appear before the committee shortly
to state definitely how many bales of
cotton they are ready to take. With
the confirmation of the plan it is gen.
orally believed that the re-opening of
the cotton exchange will inevitably fol-
low.
