COTTON GROWERS WANT
 FAIR PRICE FIXED

of YOU are under the impression that the cotton grower per SC objected to the nrice being fixed on his cotton, you are badly mistaken. Ninety per cent of the cotton growers wanted the price fixed. at a reasonable figure. we would nave been content at 35c, which iIs very httle apoVe if any the cost of production. We would now gladly welcome a fixed price on cotton at 35c for the lotion now in the hands of the produc er and the same nrice for the 1919 crop. If price fixing has haen fought, it was not done by the farmers generally, as have said above' and I can speak directly for the mem hars of the Farmers Protective league. of which I am president; for we not only advocated the fixing Pf the price, put made a campaign to that end. The Farm- CTS Protective league would not like to sae the price of cotton fixed above 35c. for the reason we dol not want to see too great premium but upon cotton orowing. as we have found that diversi- 6cation is more profitable than cotton would be at 40c per pound year in and year out"

CONVENTION NECESSARY,
 MIR BURRUSS THINKS

"Our only hoPe lies in a consti- tional convention" said Commis- sioner Burrusk yesterday. "The present constitution requires that a county have lat least 500 square miles of territory. It is expected that if a constitutional convention is not called the only amendment that can be paEsed is the one all lowing municipalities to place 10- mill tax, which I hope will be en- acted. But not few of the mem- bers of the legislature are favor able to the calling of a constitu- tional conventidn. If it is called we should have no rouble in getting in the necessary drticle that will al- low us to form Birmingham county"
 Commissioned Burruss said that it is time the pedple of this county are getting behind the matter.
 'The people of Birmingham favor it, if I can judge from the opinions that I have already heard. The people of Besse mer, I understand, are also heartily in favor of the movement. Thdre are some inter- ests which ard looking out for themselves and flor this reason are opposed to the plan, and there are people of influehce and respectabil- itv who will rej4ct this and all oth- CT suggestions of change for req sons satisfactorily to themselves. But I am for Birmingham and her interests first, last and always and those opposing plans that are to Birmingham's advantage will sim plv have to ldok out for them- calypcv

 Your declining to debate the subject: Resolved, That the cotton growers of the south have rendered a more sacrihcial service to the country during the world war than the wheat growers of the west,
