COUNCIL FAvORS PRICE
FIXING FOR COTTON
Some Other Important Resolutib pms
!. Passed at Meeting Held 2.
49, Thursday. MlN

Columbia, Aug. 8.-The state
Council of Defense has gone on de-
cord. by. the adoption of resolutions
at the bi-monthly meeting held here
Thursday, as favoring q government t
financed cottoir>, corporation; and
recommendation has been made To
President Wilson and congress thai
cotton be taken. through the formal
ton of such a governmental agencyI
to fix minimum price which the far
mer may be guaranteed for his cot
ton. =
Another resolution adopted at
this, probably the most constructive
meeting yet held by the Council of
Defense. directed the attention of
the war department and congress- to
the labor shortage in South Carolina.
which is aggravated by the fact that
many women whose husbands are in
the military service have left the
fields where they have been accus-
toned to work in former years, and
are subsisting on the allowances re-
mitted by the war department An
appropriate remedy to relieve this
situation is asked for, since many
women are living in idleness while
the farm labor shortage grows more
acute.
Two other resolutions. both OF
statewide Importance, were adopt
ed. One Of these deprecates the sale
and use of fireworks during the pc
riod of the war and calls upon the
municipalities to forbid either. The
other urges members OF the county
units to keep on the alert for slack
ers, for those who abuse the system
of paying allotments, and for other
Irregularities.
The Council Of Defense appro-
priated $1,000 to help finance the
work of the State Illiteracy Com
mission.
The executive committee OF the
Council Of Defense has been enlarg-
ed by the addition OF three members
VINO are Robert McDougan, of Co.
lumbia. w. A. Stuckey. OF Bishop
vile and Horace l.. Tilgham. of Ma
