Atlanta, Ga.-(Special 1.-THE cred.
it system under which the agricultu-
raj south works and stays poor is an.
alyzed in a striking way by H. G.
Hastings of Atlanta, chairman of the
agricultural committee of the Cham
Der of Commerce, and a member Of
the executive council of the South
eastern Fair. He does not mince
words in talking about the situation.
Every season during the last fifty
years." he says. there has been trou-
BILE in the cotton belt whenever the
crop was krge and the price low, or
the crop short. Each time the cry Of
hard times goes up, and the reason
back Of it is that the farmers cannot
get enough money to pay their debts
out Of their so-called cash cropecot-
ton. 1t is disheartening because IL IL
so absolutely unnecessary.
"A cotton farmers debts are large
ly for food and grain. charged up
against him OF the merchants books
at two to three times the price that
those same items could be produced
on his own acres, and usually without
serious interference with a crop of cot.
ton as large as he now makes.
THE trouble is that most cotton
farmers owe their crop instead of
owning 1t when made.
1.-THE credit way looks the easy
way, but 1t strangles most farmers
before they get through life.
II have said repeatedly in public
addresses that no state or section of
any country can be prosperous that
is regularly dependent on another
section for its food supplies. What
is true of a state or section is true
of the individual farmer.
THE great exhibits Of grain, hay
and food products shown at the South
eastern Fair held in Atlanta in No.
vember. give the lie to the statement
that these things cannot be grown
here at home successfully and prof
itably.
"A good big home garden kept
planted and rightly tended through
the season will produce half of the
living besides furnishing an abund-
ance for canning or drying from the
surplus.
when we make our food and grain
we will have few Or no debts at the
we will own instead of owe
our crops when made, and farm
wealth will accumulate in the south
instead Of farm and crop mortgages"

INDIVIDUAL WORKER
IS A SORRY PICTURE

Washington.--In a vigorous defense
OF collective bargaining by workers, Sec
retary of Labor Wilson, in his annual
report, presents this picture:
"A solitary wage worker faces a fore
man whom he asks for work to do.
Back of him a shadowy mass of indi-
vldual bargainers eager for the lob.
Fronting him the foreman upon whose
words his livelihood depends Over the
foreman a superintendent whom the
foreman must satisfy Rising above
BOTH rank upon rank, managers, direct
ors, stockholders, all to be satisfied bv
superlntendents and foremen. and each
rank subservient to the rank above it.
he interests of all but the solitary bar
gamer for job are knitted together
into a collective self-interest which in
stinctlvely dictates for wages the least
that the labor market will allow-a mar
ket tense with competition for work but
slack IN competition for workers.
Even this is not all For that collec-
tive interest is permeated with similar
ones through interlocked directorates
and interlocked stockholding vitalized,
1t may be, with gentlemen's agreements
and by business coercion or fear of it.
At the outer edge of all lone wage
worker bargains for work; bargains in
glutted labor market; bargains indi-
vidually!
Before those gigantic collectivities OF
employing interests wage worker bar
gaining individually for work is as i'm
potent and negligible as medieval peas
ant kneeling before the council of king.
Never, one may fairly say, is oppor-
tunity for work so far in excess of per-
sons needing work as to give them more
than a very slight and very temporary
advantage in bargaining, or even to place
them for long on an even footing. While
this unbalanced condition lasts the in
terests of wholesome social life demand
that wage earners be freely conceded
the right, in bargaining for employment,
to do so collectively"

EMPRESS.

tonics, hilarity. 1t is program that

and still more laughs, with just enough
of the sensational, song and instrumental
melody and the novel and unusual, to
make it splendid entertainment. There

ly occurrence at the Empress this sea-

The foremost Of these is the avalanche
of fun, won by Leg a veritable cy-
clone of mcrrment, and well suited for

farceurs who have won unlimited laugh
ing success, and who have dominated
every show in which they have appeared.
Another act of headline proportions
is that of the Singing Four, quartette
of voices whose harmony is of the high
est quality and calibre. These four men
represent the class and the refinement Of
singing vaudeville, and they are one OF
the acknowledged sensations of the sea-
son. They are happy, good-natured
crowd of young fellows, and harmony
prevails with them in such a marked
degree that their vocal offering is a gen.
une treat.
