SENATOR SMITH EXPECTS
4O.CENT COTTON IN FEW WEEKS

ATLANTA, Jan. 3.-Senator Hoke
Smiths confident prediction that cot
ton will probably go to 40 cents a
pound in the next few months, has
given strong impetus to the cotton
holding movement among the farmers
of the South who are more and more
determined not to sell their staple I'M
til they can get a price that covers
the cost of production, plus a reason
able profit
In the near future it is quite iikely,
as pointed out by Senator Smith, that
tie blockade on Germany and Austria
will be lifted where cotton is con-
Cerned, so that the great textile in
dIstries of those countries can get
raw material This will be in line
with the generally agreed policy of al
lowing the Central Empires an oppor-
tunity to make money with which to
pay the war indemnities that will be
levied upon them AS pointed out here
and in the allied countries, unless
Germany and Austria make money they
cannot pay the cost of the war
Should, therefore, the blockade on
cotton shipments to those countries be
lifted, there will be Immediately Great
ed an additional market for 100000
bales of cotton, and in Senator Smiths
opinion the price would then go to 40
cents in very few weeks.

in love with her and wants to marry
her, and she does not deny that he has
begged her to become his wife. Nay,
nav. never again, also nix" is now the
way she feels about him. She says
she would like for the police authori-
ties TO arrange to ship him to Mil

moment. She doesn't care about pros
ecuting him for shooting her through
the thigh, even if he did try to hit
her in the heart and was only pre-
cented by her quick presence of mind
in selling the automatic pistol.
Winchester claims that he had no
idea of shooting Mrs. Green. He says
that he intended to kill himself if she
refused to break her other engage,
ment to let him come to see her We'd

gun she got excited and grabbed it and

the small boys and grown-ups in the
Central of Georgia yards here today.
II was a string of freight cars, just

keen the snow from melting entirely

for the Southland, was viewed with a
great deal of interest.
