REVIEW OF FlVE-YEAR g..
FIGHT FOR FAIR PRICE OF
COTTON BY SEN. SMITH
Continued Prom Page y

Smith and his colleagues would cease
their criticisms of Great Britain's
seizure policy. Senator Smith in
formed this emissary that he could
speak only for himself, but he would
not trade any rights belonging to his
constituents. He suggested that II
Great Britain or British companies
should enter the cotton market by
September and by genuine purchas-
es carry the market beyond twelve
cents per pound it might be assumed
little attention would be paid to crltt-
cism.
There IS reason to believe that the
british government sought to make
~ to southern farmers their loss on
account of Illegal interference with
the south's cotton shipments to
uorthern Europe. Well-informed
..~rsons claimed that in September
and October, 1915. agents at the be-
hest of Great Britain did enter the
market and bought two to three mil
lion bales causing the price to ad-
vance beyond twelve cents.
Senator Unjustly Accused
AS an interesting commentary upon
the situation then existing, it will
be recalled that Senator Smith was
so active and persistent in his efforts
TO broaden the cotton markets that
he was actually accused of pro- Ger
manism when he was merely seeking
to aid the southern cotton grower
and enable him to ship cotton to the

published at his own expense adver-
tisements in the leading papers OF
the east facts covering the size and
cost of production of the cotton crop
and figures relating to the demand
for the staple. Portions of the press
reached the conclusion that the price
for cotton is not too high, but that
it probably will go higher.
Efforts at Last Rewarded
For five years, therefore, the sem
Tor Georgia senator led movement
here to remove from jeopardy the
principal product of great section
Of his country. He devoted hts time
and his private purse to a CAM
paign Of education, legitimate argu-
ment and protest against first one
impediment and then another in the
marketing of the south's cotton.
Through it all he kept sectionalism
\ground that the prosperity of the
nation as a whole was linked with
fair return on the product Of the
farms and non-interference with a
great export trade. Today Senator
Smith is entitled to the satisfaction
of knowing that for time, at least,
the cotton producer is being paid for
his labor.
But nothing better illustrates the
Georgia senator's devotion to cotton
and the interests Of his constituents
than passing remark by Washing
ton newspaper man at the height of
the embargo controversy. The south
ern correspondent was informed by
colleague that there was state
ment of some sort available at the
office Of Senator Hoke Smith.
81 bet you three to one" replied
the correspondent, that it's a state
ment about the cotton situation. Sem
ator Hoke is certainly worked up
over it."
incidentally, the newspaper man
was right, but the little occurrence,
it may be fairly said, merely illus
trated how consistently the Georgia
senator remained con the job" for
five years while cotton was having
its ups and downs and the entire
south-industrial and agricultural
apprehensively awaited each devel-

Those Who Prayed First =.
CITY Dry See Nation DrV

Many years ago, in 1873, to : be
exact, a group of people who called
themselves crusaders started to
clean up the town of Hillsboro, O.
It was the start of the prohibition
movement. The first step was to put
the evil saloons out of business.
Mother" Thompson was at the head
of the crusaders. She was the
founder of the w. C. Il. U. and the
movement to make the country dry.
Another person who was helping
lead the crusaders in their action
against the saloons was Rev. w. J.
Surely, pastor of the Crusade church
in 1873. He is now pastor of a
church at Oxford, o. The crusad-
ers met in front of the various sa-
looms in the town-there were not
more than three or four-and start
ed praying them out of business.
When the saloonists surrendered
they bought their stock and burned
it in the public square.

United States entered the war and

No one more zealously supported the
cause of the war and advocated
measures necessary for the defeat of
Germany than did Senator Smith
after the United States entered the
European conflict.
