THE SUB-TREASURY PLAN.
Editor Jeffersonian.

Editor Jeffersonian.
Referring to the various editorials
and plans to relieve the cotton situa-
ton in the South, I desire to sug-
gest the old idea advanced in the
Ocaba platform by the Farmers AL
lance known as the Sub-Treasury
plank.
This remedy was born in the
brains of patriots who had the good
of the farmers and producers of the
Union at heart. 1t should at least
receive as much consideration at the
hands of the Congress as son-in-law
McAdoo's plan to lend to the Ma
tional banks currency, at three per
cent per annum for the banks to
lend in turn to the farmers at one
per cent a month for four months,
thus placing them in more distress
at the expiration of the loan than
they were before.
The Government has followed the
Sub-Treasury plan in establishing
Regional banks, but the difference in
the system is, that the Regional
banks were established for the use
of member banks, whereas the Sub
Treasury was proposed for the bene-
fit of the producer.
The Government could easily aid
the farmers to carry the present cot
ton crop at very nominal rate of
exchange without valorization and

without the possibility of loss under
this plan.
By the issuance of cotton certif-
Gates non-interest bearing, and le-
gal tender for debt direct to the
farmer who held his cotton in bonded
warehouses to the extent of seventy
hVe per cent of its market value the
farmers distress and the cotton cri-
sis would be relieved No one would
object to this except the banks,
Their objection would be strenuous,
but this government should exist for
the good of the people and not the
banks. Profit has always been an
other word for patriotism, with the
National banks. The time has come
when the Government should do
something for the people. If the
Federal Government refuses to enact
such remedial legislation, it should
at least repeal the ten per cent tax
on State issues and permit the States
to carry out direct plan for relief
1t the great cotton crop was grown
IN the North or East the Govern
ment would have long ago enacted
legislation for direct relief to the
growers. Why not do as much for
the South?
Respectfully,
Ga. o. M. DUKE.

RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED AT
FARMERS MEETING, COCH-
RAN, GA, SEPT. 5, 1914.

We, the farmers of Bleckley
County, in mass meeting assembled,
declare that we know:
l. That when the word bankers
is used hereafter, we mean the big
bankers, the bankers of the "sys-
tenn the money trust, and that our
small bankers are equally interested
with us in this crisis, because our
success lis their success, and our
downfall is their hurt, perhaps their
ruin. We ask for their cooperation.
2. That the basis of currency has
been changed from Government
Bonds to bonds and stocks Of cor
porations.
3. That the big bankers own the
oil fields, the mines, the railroads,
the water powers, the factories.
4. That they can monetize all
these stocks at pleasure, and pay
little or no interest to the Govern
ment.
5. That they can easily and prof.
tably lend this money to all their
enterprises whether Of manufacture
or distribution) at from 2 to per
cent.
6. That the small bankers and
the mercantile world stand next in
the big farmers favor, who accom-
mOdate their demands at from to
per cent, when fully secured by
mortgages from farmers.
7. That few farmers manage
to secure some money at IS to 20
per cent.
8. That the farmer is made the
goat" to bear all the burden of in
terest and credit down the line.
8. That the Government is very
"Paternal" to all except the farmers
and laborers who are treated as
illegitimate children, while it upholds
the manufacturers by the tariff.
10. That the Government pro-
by purchasing his bullion when
necessary.
II. That the Government made
haste to ship cargo of gold and
charter vessels to help our pleasure
seekers to escape from the perils of
war.
IL. That the Government is
heartless which monetizes the
watered stocks of corporations, and
refuses to monetize the unwatered
and gilt-edged value of the farmers
cotton, to escape the financial ruin
wrought by war.
IS. That the big bankers and the
Government appear to forget that
the cotton crop brings annually from
500 to 900 millions of gold from
Europe, and is an enormous factor
in sustaining the gold standard sur.
plus in their own vaults, and in the
u. S. Treasury.
IA. That the Government has
ready one million dollars of Treas
ury notes for the big bankers, in
addition to one half a billion of dol
lars of Vreeland currency.
