ISSUE A CALL
FOR CONFERENCE
Representatives of Southern Pa
pers VIII Discuss the Cotton
Situation.
OBy Associntod Press.l }

MEMPHIS, Tenn. Nov. 2.-After an
exchange OF views by Il number of the
newspapers of the South, call was
issued tonight for conference in this
city November IL OF representatives
of all the daily and agricultural pap
ers In the Southern States to discuss
the cotton situation. The general pur-
pose OF the meeting is to organize q
system OF publicity that will encour-
age voluntary reduction of the cot
ton acreage next year and the plant
ing Of unused lands in other crops.
1t is planned to adopt a system Of
reporting pledges to reduce acreage to
a central body, which in turn would
inform the trade within thirty days
to what extent reduction is contem-
plated. Plans for united effort for
crop diversifcation will be formulat-
ed. Cotton in It's relation to banking
and the country merchant also will
be considered.
From Investigations already made
by some of the papers," the announce
ment ;tates. Sufficient data has been
secured from farmers to warrant the
belief that proper publication of vol
untary pledges of curtailment of pro
duction will result in q general re-
duction. the extent of which, IL made
public. would influence the price of
the present cotton crop to q point
nearer its value than the prices now
quoted"

ATTORNEY SULLIVAN.

Usually when great reform starts
In any community there Is one man
more responsible for its success than
any other. for usually the brunt Of the
work to be done is borne by one man.
The crusade against the blind tigers
in Anderson is not an exception to
this rule, and the man who is bearing
q large part of the brunt and censure
OF those upon whom the hand OF the
law Is falling, is the city attorney, G..
Cullen Sullivan. Absolutely fearless.
and unimpeachable, this yong man
has fought the legal battle for the city
in these cases single handed and
alone. and while he has stood sor the
rights Of the city in a loyal way, he
has not done 30 arrogantly. but un-
derneath the surface has shown the
kindly spirit OF the man. He has not
wished to persecute, and his sole de-
sire has appeared to be the stamping
out OF the evil Save the man II we
can, but stop the evil at all hazards.
No man could have made the fight he
has made except he be In earnest and
have u worthy motive in doing 1t, and
no man who has so far felt the PEN
atty OF the law can say that Cullen
Sullivan has taken the slightest ad-
vantage of him.
In saving this. The Intelligencer
does not wish TO take away one bit
of the praise that belongs to Mayor
Godfrey. Chier sammons and ali tne
other city officials for their share in
the work of cleaning up Anderson, to
say nothing OF the arduous task of
the recorder. Col. Russell. They have
all done we'll, and have undertaken
task that officials In other cities
shirk and in great many OF them
never do. Like The Intelligencer these
gentlemen could have remained silent
and have done nothing and even then
Anderson would have been better than
many cities In this State but they did
not elect To do SO. and they deserve
the well done OF their people for their
Efforts to improve conditions in 'Riy
Town"

PLAN TO REMEDY
SLIGHT DEFECT
Will Tax Federal Reserve Banks
to Defray Expenses For First
Half of Year.
(By Associated Press.)


WASHINGTON. Nov. 2.-The fed
eral reserve board today announced
a plan to remedy a slight defect in
the new currency act and to provide
for payment of its members salaries
Through Secretary Willis 1t announc-
cd q levy of four tenths of one per
cent against the federal reserve banks
for the purpose Of defraying expenses
for the first half year of its exis-
tence.
The law gave the organization COM
mittee 100000 to spend. but congress
did not then contemplate that the
banks would not be in operation for
nearly eleven months after it's pas
sage. The expenses of the board and
its assistants are by law to be paid
by the banks.
The 100000 has been spent, how
ever, and the levy was found to be
necessary.
Secretary Willis announced that the
expense includes an estimated charge
OF 100000 for dies and the prepara-
tion of federal reserve notes. This
item in the future is expected to be
much smaller. The actual cost of
maintaining the board has not been
finally estimated.
Reserve banks are to pay one-third
OF the assessment Immediately, a
third within thirty days and the rest
within sixty days. The basis used
for the levy is the capital stock al
lotted to the applying member banks
at its face value. or about $110, ,O00,-
900.

LET rs PAVE ANYWAY

Because the legislature killed The
bill to allow Anderson to issue bonds
TO the extent of Is per cent OF he. as
sessed property valuation is no reason
why Anderson should not do SOM
street paving any way. From the fig
ures available Anderson has proper
ty valuation OF $3.136,000 at the last
tim" the returns were taken. Next Feb
ruary. after the returns for 1915 are In
10 viii be found that there has been n
great increase. Anderson now has q
bonded Indebtedness of only SI75,5OO
and under the present constitution
she can issue up to per cent. of the
assessed property valuation. So by the
time the next years returns are in,
Anderson can increase her bonded in
dcbtedness at least 100000 Should
the amendment to the Constitution to
be voted on tomorrow carry, and
there is little doubt that II will, then
the city can assess abutting property
owners an amount equal to what the
lily will expend on permanent i'm
pr1vements. This will gi, approxi-
mately 100000 available for this
work, or which will be available as
soon as the bond issue is arranged
for. AT reasonable rate per mile, the
amount thus to be secured will pave
approximately ten miles of the streets
Of the city. For present needs. it
strikes us that the above is all we
need. SO let us get busy and have
everything in readiness to issue the
bonds, and begin early to add several
miles to our paved streets.

WHY CRITICISE TKEM7

II Is understood that there are some
listers and other promin ent gentlemen
Of the city on account OF their inter
est in the trials that are going on at
the Recorders court here. Of course
these gentlemen stand for. and why
synpathiZe with the acts OF the evil
dOers do not wish TO have ministers
present to see just what conditions
are. We fail TO see any argument that
applies TO the presence of those who
stand for the right, which would not
apply with equal force 10 those on
the other side Why is it, we may ask,
do those who "side" with the accused
in those cases, also frequent the court
room? Something else must be done
to create sympathy for the offenders,
for 1t is incredible that such gentle
men as the ministers Of Anderson. the
secretary of the Y. M. G. A.. and others
equally interested In making Ander-
son clean city. should have any but
the purest of motives in attending
these trials.
How can a minister, for instance,
know what is happening in the city
unless he gets familiar with all walks
OF life. and how Is he to know what
the "blind" tigers do unless he hears
1t in court. These business(0 men do
not as a rule invite gentlemen of the
cloth to their midnight revels, nor
would they be welcomed If they came
unbidden. SO what is a minister to do
who wishes to get information of this
business? How can minister save
man II he does not know from what
to save him? Suppose, Mr.. Critic, that
you were young man who had fall
len to the lure Of n blind tiger. whose
business was done on the quiet in an
upstairs room, and your minister
should attempt to save you from fall
ling, would it not be of incalculable
value to this minister to know. just
what the temptation Is to which you
are subjected? Could not he do more
effectual work for your SOULS saliva
tion, II he knew, and how is he to
know except what someone tells him?
Better have 1t from witnesses under
oath, than from street talk.
No, there must be something else
done to create sympathy for the Of
tenders against all law. When minis
ters and business men are sufficiently
interested to leave their work and go
to crowded court room to hear evil
dence In nasty liquor case, 1t pre-
sages evil to the offenders, for this is
what is needed to put stop to their
practices. Unless ther: :s wholesome
public sentiment back of any effort to
clean up Anderson and so evidenced
by the interest, and presence Of her
best and most influential citizens. then
the efforts are In vain.
Tns Inteiiigencer believes that It is
a healthy Sign for so much interest to
be shown, and also that these gentle
men are not going to hear these trials
for any pleasure they derive from 1t,
but from sense of duty. Let the Of
fender beware II he is engaged in
something which has not the sanction
of the ministry, and the influential
and moral citizens of the community.
Botter sfor him that he give It up, and
place himself In the watchcare of
some OF these Cody persons till he
can trust himself to walk before his
fellow man.
