People of the Eastern Section of the
County Lead in a Most I'M

Subscription lists are being circu-
lated in Holtville and vicinity to sell
stock in a cooperative cotton gin to
be built there and put in operation
for next seasons cotton crop.
Farmers interested in the movement
said today that good progress is be-
ing made in the sale of stock.
4 meeting of cotton growers was
held in that city about ten days ago.
at which plans for the cooperative gin
were mapped out The meeting was
attended by most of the leading cot
ton growers of the Holtville district.
They enthusiastically endorsed the
movement, and it was agreed to erect
an eight-stand gin before the next cot
ton season opens.
The movement was started by the
attitude of private gins, which have
refused to grant growers the right to
dispose of their seed as they see fit,
claiming the right to buy the seed
at prices fixed by the gins themselves.
Many farmers who We're forced to
borrow money early in the season
from the ginning companies are now
forced TO sell their seed at much less
than other growers are receiving, ii

the loans were made specified that
the seed should be sold to the ginning
company lending the money.

the first payment for water stock,
amounting to $120. was made month
after the proof was made. Edmund

MILITARY TRAINING.

Universal military training is now
imperative Some form of legislation
will pass now without delay. Sen
ator Chamberlain proposes in his bill,
which is most prominently discussed,
to register all men between the ages
Of 20 and % for military training.
The measure as originally drawn in
cluded the, nineteen-year-old class.
This revision would seem to weaken
rather than strengthen the act as a
military measure.
AL men of military age under the
bill must be registered, but there are
number of exemptions from actual
service, SO that the inauguration Of
q new military system would not par
alyze our economic system. Any uni
versal scheme Of military training
must not be too drastic at the start,
but eventually the nation will be fore
ed to organize its man power for any
exigeacy, reducing exemptions to the
lowest possible percentage.
