south's Future at Stake.

The South realizes that its future
existence is at stake, and that it is
absolutely necessary to market, bank
and finance its cotton crop and that
Il this is not done, the cotton produo-
ton of the South will follow the in
digo production, and that the cotton
production will be referred to only az
something that once existed in the
South.
For this reason the farmer, mer.
chant and banker have absolutely de-
termined to arrange to market cot
ton. They are forming a $200,000,0o
corporation for this purpose known as
the Marketing, Exporting and Financ-
ing Corporation. The manipulators
and gamblers who have fed on the
life blood OF the South will, OF course,
violently protest. We realize that
commercial freedom OF the South is
absolutely necessary to the future
progress and prosperity Of the South.
The banking interests OF the South
plus by at least so per cent, and will
accept liberty loan bonds in payment
FOR additional stock issued Oppor-
tunity only knocks once. The South
realizes that it is knocking today and
he door will be opened.
Are You Helping.
Are You helping in the fight for
commercial freedom of the South? II
not, you are not loyal son of either
America or the South. Not only this
you do not realize that America, CT
which the South is part, is your own,
your native land; you do not realize
that God Almighty made all men free
and equal; you do not believe on
Peace on Earth good will to men"
No loyal American will so far forget
