WALLACE SUGGESTS MEMOR|AL-IREES IN
 HONOR 0F FALLEN
Planting of Shade Trees Will Be Lasting Monument to the Heroes Who Died
 for Mankind

Montgomery, November 23.-(Special) Planting of memorial trees in every avail able place in Alabama. in honor of Ala bama's dead in the war just ended, is suggested by John H. Wallace, Jr., state game and fish commissioner. in a state ment to the people of Alabama Satur- day. He pays a beautiful tribute to the ''unconquerabIes' who paid the debt in order that oppressed people might be Tree The planting of the shade trees oy the roadside, in lawns and every available place, he says, will be a last ing monument to the states heroes.
 The statement follows:
 TEXT OF STATEMENT
 T desire to enlist the active co-opera- tion of every publc-spirited citizen in Alabama in carrying into effect a sys- tematfc programme for planting memo- rial trees for our gallant soldier dead.
 Alabama is the mother ofpatriots; she is the home of unconauerables. In the world war. just ended, many of her bravest and most favored sons have given up their lives for the emancipation of oppressed peoples, shackled by the tyran- ny of autocracy, that they may enjoy the blessings of libery and have voice in heir own government.
 The planting of trees to the memory of those young men WHO were Sldin upon the battlefields and who will not march in the ranks of their comrades when our victorious legions return, will be a fit ting tribute and comprise an everlasting, living, beautiful testimonial of our grati- tude to those who slumber in the sacred soil of France.
 SUGGESTS BLACK WALNUT
 T suggest that black walnut trees be planted along the roadsides, for in the event of another war in 50, 100 or 200 years hence, the wood from the black walnut trees, so planted, could be util- ized in the manufacture of gunstocks and into propellers for aeroplanes
 "In the event black walnut trees arc not available, oceans, scaleybark nick ory. elm, peach, hackberry, linden, syca. more, sweetgum, sugar maple and yell low poplar should be planted.
 'The advantages of roadside trees are incalculable. Trees furnish protection to the traveller from the chilly blasts of winter and from the summers heat.

 COTTON FOR 35C
Proclamation Terms 35- Cent Price Equal to Cost of Production, Plus a
 Fair Profit

Atlanta, November 23.-A joint procla- nation signed by the governors of eight cotton states urging farmers, merchants bankers and business men to organize and hold cotton for not less than 8; cents pound, middling basis. was is- sued here tonight through J. J. Brown, president of the. cotton states official ad- visory marketing board. The prociama- ton, an indorsement of the recommen- dations made by the board here Novem- Der '. termed such a price "equal to the cost of production plus a fair profit" The recent heavy break in cotton pr1ces. the proclamation said, "is wholly unJutihed by existing conditions and the great disturbance incident to the break in the market has temporarily paralyzed the agricultural and business interests of the south and entailed heavy loss to the cotton producer by reason of the price being below the cost of produc. tion.
 BORROWING INDORSED
 Selling of cotton for 35 cents was ad- vocated only Ito meet pressing obliga- tions." and borrowing on cotton rather than selling it, was indorsed Federal reserve banks were called upon to ''be just as liberal as consistent with good business in rediscounting notes secured by cotton.
 The necessity for the. south producing more food for men and animals was stressed in another part of the procla- nation, which urged smaller cotton acre. age next year and more planting of feed and foodstuffs.
 The proclamation, signed by the gov ernors of Texas Georgia, South Caro- lima, Arkansas, North Carolina, Missis- sippi, Alabama and Florida, urged that county and school districts in each state be organized
 The advisory board added statement saying the bears in the market "are trying to frighten'' the southern cotton holders, declaring that federal fixing of cotton prices is dead,'' and concluding, Hold your nerve-yact as your sons did at the front in FfAnce-tell the priates they shall not pass"
