OvERPRODUCTION OF COT
TON GREATEST DANGER.

In order that the cotton grow.
ers may receive an adequate price
for their products it is absolutely
necessary that the next cotton
crop be kept we'll within the mar
gin of demand. The following
from the Memphis Commercial
Appeal is very appropriate just at
present:
Overproduction is certain to re-
suit unless planters have a
change of mind between now and
spring in the opinion of DR.. E. r.
Lloyd, agriculturalist of the
Chamber of Commerce bureau of
farm development
High prices and the absence of
boil weevil for two years have
combined to stampede planters to
cotton" DR.. Lloyd said. "All
throughthe delta planters are
planning to increase their cotton
oSACoSC tAlO CdI.
For two years we have had dry
springs, the most advantageous
sort of weather for cotton produc-
ton. For that reason planters in
sist that the boil weevil is thing
of the past. They don't know
what they are talking about. If
we have wet spring we may ex-
pect the boil weevil again this
year."
DR.. Lloyd arrived in Memphis
yesterday to take up his new
work as agriculturalist of the
farm bureau. His first drive will
be to combat the theory Of in
creased cotton acreage. Better
farming forces in Arkansas and
Mississippi are planning soon to
start campaigns against too much
cotton and the Memphis bureau
will join them in the fight.
In taking up his new work DR..
Lloyd said he would conduct the
farm bureau along the same lines
it has been operated in the past.
Produce all the feed and food
required to sustain every person
and animal on the plantation
and then plant all the cotton you
can, will be our advice to farm
ers," said DR.. Lloyd.
Another important work the
bureau will undertake is to stimu-
late the production Of live stock
I'm the tff-ssate territory We will
encourage dairying and will seek
to increase the number Of pure

THE "FAIR AND SQURAE''
QUOTA PLAN.

America as q nation believes in
fair play" 1t was this national
idea that carried us into the
world war. Our representatives at
the peace conference are pledges
to a "just peace"
The same idea was in the minds
of officials of this federal reserve
district when they adopted the
''fair and square" individual quo
ia for the fifth Liberty loan.
Under this system every citizen
will be given a quota based on his
tax returns and income. If the
amount allotted is regarded un-
just, the individual has the right
to appeal to an adjustment COM
mittee.
No one will be harassed by
solicitors if he does his duty. He
will be asked simply to appear
at given place on the opening
day OF the campaign and sub
scribe to the amount of bonds he
is known to be able to buy. When
this is done there will be no re.
quests to double it" or to make
another subscription.
The plan is one that should ap.
peal to the people throughout the
district. If every person responds
the county's quota will be raised
the first day and business can e
on as usual. It will mean q great
saving of time and effort.
The bond issue must be floatel
to pay the enormous expense in

Should Apologize to the A. E. F.

A Paris dispatch says: AT
least one of the crimes attributed
by Paris newspapers to renegade
Americans in the city has turned
out to be neither of American
planning nor execution. The. case
was that of the theft of an auto
mobile, attributed by the Intran-
sigeant to two Americans, who
were said to be making a special
ty of this kind of crime.
"The men who stole the auto
mobile have been arrested. Of
the three one proved a deserter
from the French army and the
others French civilian accomp-
lices."
A further investigation will
probably develop that fact that
very little of the crimes perpetrat-
ed recently in Paris have been by
the members of the American
Expeditionary Force. Of course
it is to be expected that a few
criminals would be included in
such a large force Of men as has
been sent to France by the United
States. Owing to the discipline
Of the army, however, the depre-
dations, have been kept down to a
minimum. This has always
been true with we'll disciplined
body Of soldiers. Men who were
inclined to lawlessness while
they are in civil life are restrain
ed from it by discipline and army
regulations. To a great extent
the army has always proved to be
q reformatory, although it is con-
trary to the policy Of the depart
ment to accept criminals for mill
tary service. 1t works an un-
justice to the better class Of men
in the service.
At the same time the army and
navy have been frequently held
responsible for crimes that have
been committed by civilians. It
is one Of the favorite methods Of
criminals to work in the uniform
Of the army. It is more difficult
for the police authorities to ap-
prehend 3 criminal who disguisea
himself as soldier. After com
mitting . crime, he can change to
civilian clothes and escape detec.
tion more READILY than ii he %.
crates in civilian clothes. This
doubtless accounts for much 81
the crime that has been attribut'
ed to the soldiers ia France. o1
course no one will claim that ths
army is entirely free from wrong
! doing, but the Paris par6l7
