Farmers Organize to
Cut Out Extra Profit

Especial Dispatch to The Journal)
DOTHAN, Ala, Sept. 21.-One of the
largest cooperative marketing projects
for farm products ever undertaken by
farmers in the state is now being devel-
oped in southeast Alabama for the mar
keting Of the enormous hog crop raised
this year in this section. A meeting
held in Ozark was attended by repre-
sentatives from twenty towns in Pike,
Russell, Bullock, Barbour, Dale, Coffee,
Henry, Houston, and Geneva counties,
at which time plans for the undertake
ing were outlined.
1t is proposed to concentrate hogs
from this section in the larger towns,
where they will be graded. These towns
will form a circuit, and sale days will
be held in the towns In rotation every
two weeks. Buyers from the various
packing concerns will be invited to these
sales and the hogs will be sold at auc-
ton In this manner it is proposed to
cut out the middle mans profit of 1 to
8 cents per pound, and thus save thou
sands of dollars to the growers
Another meeting will be held in Ozark
October 3, at which time steps will prob
ably be taken to permanently organize
the Southeast Alabama Swine Growers
association. committee is now at
work working out details.

TAX DEMANDS BY HOUSE
HOLD UP FINAL REPORT
Deadlock DiSSipateS Hope Of
Agreement Based on Defini-
ton of Invested Capital

WASHINGTON. Sept. 22.-Conferees
on the war tax bill today agreed on one
of their chief points of dispute in con-
sidering war excess profits taxation
the definition of invested capital--and
then struck a serious obstacle in house
demands for drastic tax increases, which
threatened tonight to result IN final dis
agreement.
The new deadlock dissipated earlier
confidence for complete agreement and
several conferees tonight predicted that
the fight would be thrown back into
both houses. though some members wei e
more optimistic
Sunday session of the confereeS
was arranged largely to clea" up mis-
cellaneous minor questions, with final
decision expected Monday on tie entire
bill, including the profits Question. If
the conferees fail to agree then, II was
believed, a partial report would be made
to both houses
A compromise definition of invested
capital, said to provide a systerI IF al
lowance for borrowed funds and also
intangible assets, including good Will,
trade marks. copyrights, patents and
similar inchoate property. was approved
by the conferees today after several
days discus sion.
With this basic dispute compromised,
the conferees turned to exemptions and
graduated tax rates, developing the de-
mand of house representatives for rad
ical increases of senate rates and a
much greater total levy on war profits.
1t was understood that the house mem
bers insist upon adding between $780,
00O, 900 and s500,O00,0O0 to the $1,06O,-
900. 900 senate levy.
Senate conferees were reported to
have expressed the fear that a higher
total assessment on war excess prof
it's would impair business and after to-
days session they met separately and
were said to have agreed to Withstand
the house demands.
Another factor in the new deadlock
was refusal of the senate to accept the
exemption basis OF eight per cent pro-
posed by the house. Reports that con-
ferees had approved tentatively an eight
per cent exemption were denied offici-
ally tonight The senate is said to in
sist upon a maximum exemption of ten
per cent with a six per cent minimum
as provided in the bill.
Among the miscellaneous matters to
be cleaned up are items OF the manu-
facturers sales, tobacco and liquor sec
tions, with probable further negotia-
tions on the automobile tax provision.

MENACE OF U-BOAT
IS UNDER CONTROL,
OFFICIALS THINK
Encouraging Results Obtained
by Use of Devices and by
the Conveying of Merchant
Ships by u. S.

WASHINGTON. Sept 23.-IUnless
some new outbreak of submarine activ-
ity develops, many officials are satisfied
that the situation is fairly we'll under
control. Encouraging results have been
obtained through conveying of fleets of
merchant craft, the loss having been re-
duced to less than one-haf of one per
cent. The employment of smoke screens,
kite balloons and other devices also has
shown good results and progress is be-
ing made with the reduction of smoke
from merchantmen and by painting
ships to make them almost invisible at
a distance through a periscope.
In discussing submarine conditions
today. Admiral Benson. chief of naval
operations, and acting secretary in the
absence of Secretary Daniels, Indicated
the departments purpose to make
known more of it's accomplishments
hereafter than in the past. No formal
announcement was made, however.
Admiral Benson said the department
had been unable to find any support for
reports that German submarines either
had begun operations off the American
coast or were preparing to do so. The
department however. Is ready for any
emergency.
The "smoke box" a device to be
thrown overheard from a vessel when a
submarine appears, was proved highly
successful in some cases.
A great smoke rises instantly when
the chemicals In the box come in contact
with the water and under the screen
created the vessel has opportunity to
change her course and elude the U-boat,

INVASION OF 40 PER CENT
WILL LAST TILL OCTOBER
They Will Come in Ones and
TWoS as Fast as They
Are Certified

The invasion Of Camp Gordon by the
will not stop before October l, unless
the entire 40 per cent is secured from
the state at large, according to direo-
tions Acting Adjutant General NJ. j.
Daniel received Saturday afternoon
from Provost Marshal General Crowder.
Each Georgia board will be instruct
ed Immediately to send its white men
forward between now and October J.,
from day to day, just as rapidly as they
are certified back by the district boards
Then men will drift into the camp in
ones and twos or dozens, just as fast as
they are available. Each man will be
given directions to report direct to the
camp. thus making special mobilization
instructions unnecessary.
The matter of transportation was
taken up Saturday afternoon at con-
ference between Major Joel b. Mallet
and Major Arthur McCollum, or the
adiutant generals department, and c. d.
WAYNE, representative of the American
Railways association. Mr. Wayne ex-
pressed the opinion that it will be I'M
necessary to make special transportation
plans. since the men will come forward
in small numbers.
Georgia is something like 1900 or
1000 men behind in the delivery or lts
40 per cent increment of white men,
and Major Mallet, basing his opinion on
figures compiled in the adtutant gen
erals office, is of the opinion that nor
more than 1000 white men will be Sc
cured in this states contribution to the
first new army, since the percentage OF
negroes runs very high.
Just how many men can be sent for
ward from day to day from now to Oc-
tober / is. however, a matter Of con-
lecture District boards are far behind
in their work, due to the tremendous
crush of claims and there are still hum
dreds whose claims are pending. me
new order comes in consequence or this
fact that so many claims are Undecided.
Dispatches from Washington Satur-
day night quote Secretary of War Baker
as saying that colored men drawn Tor
the national army will begin to be mus
tered about October 3.
The present plan in Georgia IS to
clean up the list of white men as far as
possible this month through the plan
of sending them to camp as rapidly as
certified and to send 40 per cent of ne
groes ONLY from October 3 to Z, inclu-
sive.
Reports from Washington, however
indicate that this plan may be changed
and that there is a possibility of not
more than 5 per cent of the negroes be-
ing sent in the October increment ana
that even this may be postponed If dis
trict boards have not virtually COM
pleted the certifying of white men.
It is understood from Washington
that no special traffic arrangements
have been made for the second mere
ment. The adjutant general, however
has no advices along this line and, I'M
less advised to the contrary, expects,
of course to plan for the movement OF
the colored selectmen.
