WHAT The AMERICAN COTTON
ASSOCIATION PLANS TO Do

Atlanta, September 1o.-(Special)-
With its offices now well established
here, in the state senate chamber,
state capitol, the Georgia Division Of
the American Cotton Association is
ready to pitch into an active and Wig
orous campaign, Immediately follow
ing the big New Orleans meeting, IN
der the leadership of Major D. F. Nc
Clatchey, secretary Of the senate and
former secretary of the Georgia food
administration.
Just what is the American Cotton
Association" is a question that is
now heard all over the South, usually
accompanied by the statement, I
know in a general way, but am anx-
ious to know all about it."
The man who reads the newspapers
couldn't help knowing about the Amer

soon he will be so well posted that
he will be informing others about it,
Producers Must Organize.
Preceded by the Cotton States Ad.
visory Marketing Board which did
splendid work in unfolding the price
of cotton, The American Cotton AS
sociation is the outgrowth Of Sc
ries of meetings and conferences by
prominent farmers and business men
of the South, who have given willingly
and unselfishly Of their time and mon
ey to make it possible for the producer
to organize to protect himself-to meet
organization with organization.
Cotton buyers, cotton shippers, cot
ton manufacturers and distributors of
cotton goods, all are organized, and
through organization they have at
tanned business success.
Likewise to organization the pro
ducers of the South must look for re-
lief from industrial slavery, for bet
ter living conditions, for an educa-
ton for their children instead of work
in the field-all and more to come
through that medium which will in

material above the cost of produc-

The American Cotton Association,
as stated by President ]. Skottowe
Wannamaker, himself a prominent cot

already, through various agencies,
saved to the producer Of cotton some
thing like s5OO,OOO,0OO. But this is
just a beginning.
1t is proposed to insure an even
greater saving through this organi-

THE CLOSED DOOR
BY FREDERICK CLARK.

Paula walked the length of the room
and stood peering through the lacy
fneness of the curtains. Her hus-
bands car was at the door; presently
he would come with his easy stride
down the white stone steps of the en-
trance. His going each morning and
his return at night were the events
of Paula's day. Nothing else held for
her the absorbing interest of this pass

figure
Her violet eyes would widen visit

she sat for moments after his depart

Paula, at first, had believed that in

Always. 1t seemed, she had loved him

have been so blind? Why, her lips had
overf1owed continually in snatches or

her new home, and David's. every
gown she selected had been with
thought of pleasing David; indeed, ev'

invasion of their bailiwick, bombarded
James A. Turley, candidate for NUM-

According to Henry c. Parks, Repub-

meeting twice was broken up by the
fusilade. The eggs, he suspected. had
been left over from the campaign of
1902 or Whereabouts. Two or three Of
them hit Mr.. Turley. he said
"Finally." Mr.. Parke related, Nh.
Turley became angry and lunged into
the crowd after his tormcntors, 0ut
they escaped. Magistrate Nolan was
standing nearby and Mr.. Turley called
on him to preserve the peace. The
magistrate, however, did not interfere.
No policeman appeared until after the

Captain Scott, Who Brought

Position Here; Super-Airship
Is Discussed

LONDON, Oct. 27.-Cons derabe dis
satisfaction is evinced over the decision
of the Air Ministry to sell one Of its
giant airships to the United States.
Before economy became the watch
word Great Britain had promised com
mercial supremacy of the air" through
feet of huge airships. The govern
ment had this fleet of airships under
construction. The country sees this
anticipated mastery now going to an
other power, from whom naturally
there is 70 fear of hostility, but whose
commercial rivalry is severely felt
Present plans of the Air Ministry
Of the --latest and best type" Britain
will eventually have these upon the
completion of the sister ships of the
R-38, the R-37 and the r 80 These Will
be almost as large as the RIB and the
probabilities are that the R-37 will
be completed first.
This surrender of the plans for a
great aerial navy is keenly felt. There
is group of famous pilots, metcorolo-
glsts and master mechanics who have
given their services to the Air Min
istry since the war, notably in connec-
ton with the flights Of the R34, who
are disappointed at the turn which
events have taken. They have sacri-
feed considerable personal gain to fur
ther Britain's air mastery and now see
their efforts have been useless
Among those is Major Scott. who
plloted the RIB to America. probably
She foremost airship pilot in the world
to-day. 1t would not be surprising if
Scott resigned from the air service
shortly and went to the United States
to take position with leading Ameri-
can firm. OF course it is only a mat
ter of time before Britain gets on her
feet financially and makes a tremend-
Gus bid for aerial supremacy Already
it is officially knowns that plans are
under way by British company to
turn out an airships which will surpass
ANYTHING previously imagined.
The plans for this superdirigible
show it will be LOO feet .ong with
tremendous liftin gcapacity and capa-
be of carrying 300 passengers and
eight tons OF mail, making Il speed ct
from so to 80 knots. The plans Of ,his
ship are carefully guarded and it Will
not be possible to start construction
until the present economy wave passes.
1t is believed such an airshi0 might
be used in commercial way, possibly
to convey visitors over bait ciields,
furnishing them an unequalled view Of
the ruined portions OF France.
At present, however, the R-3S, which
has a capacity of full Y one third great
er than the R34, with a gross lifting
capacity of eighty-two tons and speed
of seventy miles, will be the finest
drigble in the world Instead Of four
she will have seven gondoIas, with six
engines, and will be able to remain in
the air nine days, travelling 9.495 days
without taking up people. probab y
Scott will be asked to pilot her across
the Atlantic to her new owners.

I consider nine years an insufficient
period Of training for the Supreme
Court Bench.
Il desire to call your attention to a
circular which has been mailed to
thousands of voters, entitled Una
Causa Celebre per Assassinio.' "a
celebrated murder case, which states
that Irwin Untermyer, the man who
is a candidate for judge of the Supreme
Court, defended poor widow with
four children and then. presented her
with $500.
The circular further states that
the crime was committed in 1907 and
that she was tried in December of the
same year. 1nasmuch as Irwin I'm
termyer was admitted in 1910, i
is obvious that he did not defend Au-
gusta Crlsanti, the woman referred to
in the circular.
