Atlanta, Ga. July 25.-Raymond
Daniel. chairman of the committee on
Foreign Correspondence of the Grand
Lodge OF Masons of Georgia. has just
made special report in which he
states that Georgia Masons will be al
lowed to visit the lodges and hold
Masonic intercourse with members of
the Grand Lodge of France, the
Grand Orient of Belgium and the
Grand Orient of Italy
This action was taken so as to per-
nit members of the Georgia craft in
service overseas to secure Masonic
privileges abroad; and is a small part
of the definite and extended plan of
work for Masonic soldiers.
The Masons' Annuity, a benefit or
der for Masons only, is also charging
its work for Masons since the war,
and Masonic soldiers are particularly
interested in the plan of the Annuity.
Over million dollars form the pres
cnt assets of the company.

FARMERS OF GEORGIA; YOUR
INTERESTS ARE IN
20 DANGER
Dear Sir:

On July LIST, meeting OF this board
was held in New Orleans, La. At this
meeting it was decided that it was
vital to the interest Of cotton plant
ers, and therefore to the entire South,
that there be no price fixing OF cot
ton by the government, and a strong
resolution TO that effect was passed
and committee sent to Washington
to protest any government control.
Three days later there was held
in New Orleans a meeting which
claimed to represent the Bankers OF
the South. This meeting adopted the
name of the Southern Cotton States
Association Of Bankers ard Farmers,
which name is similar TO that of the
Cotton States Official Advisory Mar
kcting Board, apparently was adopted
with a view OF confusing the issue
and muddying the waters. \ rcsolu
ton was adopted calling on the Gov
eminent to fix the price OF cotton.
This last convention is backed by mo-
ney, and is directed we believe at the
iorcible lowering Of the price Of cot
ton below its just value.
The Cotton States Official Advisory
Marketing Board through its special
representative in Washington, ID. G.,
Mr.. +. a. Calvin, and its committee,
have made great fight i'll the interest
of the Southern farmer, We are to-
day in receipt OF the following wire
from Mr.. Calvin:
Have farmers and bankers send
kilograms and write letters to Baruch
Chairman War Industries Board pro-
testing against creation creation OF
United States Cotton Corporation by
Congress to buy cotton. MIR. Raruch

while he has heard great deal from

complete Bankers have gone home
very much discouraged There is no
doubt but what the whole scheme was
started to put down the price of cot
ton. Not one Of them advocated more
than twenty-five cents. Our organi-
cation has done great piece of work
and is on the map i'll good shape.
You will note Mr.. Calvin states Mr..
Baruch, Chairman, Washington, ID. G.,

those who are opposing the interest
of Cotton Farmers. and now wants to

ing.
