"NUB" WRITES HIS VIEWS

Mr.. Editor:
Knowing as I do that you are an
advocate of law, order, and coed gov
ernment, / do not feel embarrassed
when ask for space in your valuable
columns to express my views on some
of the problems that now confront
our people.
In the first place, I desire to say
that / believe very large majority of
this country's citizens heartily agree
with our great president, when he
said few weeks ago, that even
though the armistice had been signed
almost year, we were neither at war
nor at peace, but in : great crisis
When we read daily of the awful and
appalling tragedies that are taking
place, it certainly does appear to the
writer, that il there ever was time
of unrest among our people it is to-
day.
There have been anG still are indi-
cations which point to oisagrecments
between capital and labor, end with
the power which lies with the labor
unions, manufacturing industries have
been tied up, from time to time, to
time, on account of strikes, which
have greatly handicapped the ship
ping ld'iiltlcS VI lHc IdilfOdu WOrIu,
as well as keeping off the market
thousands of articles needed for var
ious causes all over the land and coun
try. Not that the writer is opposed to
labor unions, or in too great sympa-
thy with the capitalists, but with each
of these forces as well organized as
they should be it does seem plausible
that an agreement could be reached
before strike takes place and the
great industrial enterprises are all
closed down. | long to see the day
come when capital and labor shall go
hand and peace, harmony and good
will shall prevail between these two
Then there is another situation al
most too appalling to mention. This
is the great number of race riots TAX
ing place. During the period Of the
great war, which has not been so long
closed, when many, many gallant SOL
diers were killed and sometimes, no
doubt, innocent women and children
were shot down, we thought this per
fectly awful, and it was, and not
willing to trust our arms all together,
millions and millions Of our Ameri-
can people, as well as the people of
all the allied nations went on their
knees before Almighty God, pleading
for a speedy end of that great con-
fiict. TiS needless to say what the
result was. Now how can we, as a
Christian people, believe that such
conditions will longer exist? Preach
er, teacher, Christian men and Chris
tian women, white and colored let us
remember what the Good Book says
BLESSED are the meek for they shall
inherit the earth" Let us be meek in
dealing with this problem and slow
to anger, or we fear we shall have to
forfeit the great name we have SO
long cherished, "Christian America" !"

Dangers IN the TreQty DELAY,
And Hopes for RatUicntjon

~ ENAT0R UNDERWOOD, OF Alabama,
% cogently warns his colleagues that
present suspense over the Treaty OF
Peace is curtailing our export trade to such
an extent that the losses soon will be felt by
the cotton farmer OF the South, the wheat
farmer of the West and the manufacturers
and laborers OF the North"
There are higher reasons than those Of
mere business why the Treaty tangle should
be disposed Of, but there is none which for
the time being come Sc forcefully home to
SO large number Of the American people. Ma
tioral honor and the pla:nost Obligations OF
International friendship demo. that the
United States be spared the 3D. abandon
ing her associates il the war Tor freedom,
abandoning them at critical ju1cture Of
world affairs, and making a separate peace
with the Hun. National interest and the
plainest dictates of humane conscience urge
that this Republic do its part in efforts to
prevent future wars and to foster goodwill
among nations. "a
But aside from these considerations
which some gentlemen of the Senate dismiss
as moonshine, stands fact which the most
materialistic ard most cynical Of them
ali cannot deny or ignore. Senator In
derwood has stated it well. Delay on the
Peace Treaty is hurting business at vital
point, and il ratification is deferred much
lOnGar, producers and workers in every re-
gion of America will suffer in consequence.
Though the armistice came more than thir-
teen months ago we are still in "a state of
war;" still at sea as to our foreign policy.
The world waits to see what America will Go,
and America waits upon the Senate.
1t is dubious and d hazardous state Of af-
fairs. 1t aggraVates every trouble attendant
upon crucial transtion--the restlessness,
the anxiety, the instability OF a time like this
| There would be difficulties enough, even had
| the Treaty issue been settled months ago;
but there would be satisfaction in knowing
that they were of the kind unavoidable and
that everything possible to promote read just
mont had been done This is the least the
! country's business interests are due, and the
least the Senate in good faith can render.
There are cheering omens that the period
of obstruction and delay is near an end. Not
only from Washington, but from Paris and
LondonS as we'll, come limitations that events
are quietly shaping for an agreement on the
Treaty points in controversy. May these good
hopes have early fruitage, for upon their full
illment depend the material welfare no less
than the national prestige OF America, and
the happiness OF all the world.

TIE Fat Of Prosperity.

" VERY observer is impressed by the
value of Georgia-raised hogs has in
creased from an aggregate of some fifteen
million to more than fifty million dollars
Striking as the figures are, they leave I'M
pictured vast realm of the development
and prosperity which lies beyond and about
this new farm industry of the cotton belt.
The doubling and trebling of the value of
the States swine in so short period would
never have been possible but for certain
marked changes in agricultural policy. Thou
sands Of acres of corn and ~sundry crops
other than cotton were planted as pre-
REQUISITE to the dagger undertaking in animal
husbandry. The counties now foremost in
hog and cattle raising We're first in the ex-
tensive production of food and forage har-
vests. They were, for the most part, the pio-
neers of diversifcation, and from them the
tyranny of cotton had it's earliest efectual
challenge. This remarkable increase in the
output Of hogs means! then, that there has
been nothing short of revolution in our
agricultural affairs. s+- .--
And what a beneficent revolution! It has
brought millions upon millions Of new wealth
from Georgia's soil. 1t has saved amounted
MILLIONS more in food supplies formerly
imported from the West. 1t has given the
farmer a cash income for every season,
where hitherto he depended on credit until
cotton marketlng time. It has saved the
State fromEWhat doubtless would have been
disaster had the boil weeviI invasion found
us still staking our agricultural all on
cotton. gxass Isl ~

pWS IERE has not beon time in the Iast
twenty years, competent observers de-
clare, when cotton would have SOLD
below twenty cents a pound if the growers
had been able to market their staple IN a
business-li3e way.
Instead CT Rising enough food and iced
to make t:?-.r farms Self-sustaining, it was
long their habit to plant everything in cot
ton and buy these necessary plantation sup
plies The consequence of such an obviously
ll-advised system WAS to force them to
dump their cotton on the market IN the
fall of the year to raise cash TO pay LOT
supplies bought on credit.
Twelve million bales of cotton sold at
afty dollars bale makes six hundred mil
lion dorSrs To supply such stupendous
sums of cash in short marketing PERIOD
was more than the cotton manufacturers
couId do. Spectators, bought cotton ana
determined its price, both for the farmer
and to large extent for the m2nufacturef
Prior to the establishment. Of the Federal
Reserve System, every cotton marketing
season drained the South OF cash ana Gre
ated = money shortage.
And now at last the third difficulty,
which has been the failure of the growers
to act in concert, gives bright promise OF
becoming thing of the past in the grow
ing membership and strength of the Ameri-
can Cotton Association. Farmers able to
get money at low rates when they need
it, to feed themselves and their tenants
and their stock, and thus to place their
cotton Oh the market whenever the world
needs it and offers a right price for it,
ought to and will become the most pros
porous agricultural community on earth.
