FARMERS JOIN IN
WARON BROKERS
Ask To Be Made Party
To Browns Injunc-
ton Suit

ATLANTA, March 12.-J. H. Mills,
president of the Farmers Union of
Georgia, through his attorneys, j.
Threat Moore and H. A. Allen, filed
petition in the federal district
court yesterday, seeking to be made
a party plaintiff to the injunction pc
titlon brought by Commissioner of
Agriculture J. j. Brown and Direc-
tor of Markets Lem B. Jackson
against George H. McFadden & Co.
and other cotton buyers.
Mr.. Mills asks that he be allowed
to intervene with all of the rights of
the original party plaintiff. He adopts
all of the allegations set forth in the
petition and the prayers for relief.
He said that the effect of the meet
ing of February %, 1920, by which
various grades of cotton below mid
ding were reduced from one to four
cents per pound, had been disastrous
to the farmers of Georgia, who had
portion of their crop remaining on
hand, and had also prevented them
from realizing the value of their said
SOCNOH ny HOlulIlS II from Jue IldTheI
and had compelled them to borrow
money to raise their 1870 crops.
}. Hope Tignor, secretary of the
Atlanta Commercial Exchange, gave
4 statement to the press, in which he
denied that the meeting held at the
Commercial Exchange on February
28 was in any sense a conspiracy as
charged by Messrs. Brown and Jack
son in their petition. He said that
the meeting was not secret, but was
held on the floor of the exchange,
and that every one interested was
welcome to attend and participate. 1t
was customary, he continued, in every
stable market in the cotton belt for
parties interested to meet, discuss
the relative values of different grades
and decide how much each grade was
on or off middling cotton, which was
taken as the basis. The Atlanta
Commercial Exchange did not feel
that any irregularity had occurred,
as the matter of grade differences,
he said, had nothing whatever to do
with the price used in the competi-
tive buying of cotton.

SOCIETY FEELS
ANOTHER STAB.

Everything that comes along gives
society in Americas another stab, it
seems. Besides the Lenten season,
there was the ''fu." Now it is the
shortage of coal in the bins. There
were several parties, pretty ones, too,
scheduled for the week, but on ac-
count Of the shortage of coal it was
thought best to postpone these until
the weather moderates, or the coal
dealers get in sufficient supply
Spring is nearly here, however, and
in the spring woman's fancies light
ly turn to thoughts of clothes and
parties. There are several scheduled
for next week, and thereby hangs a
tale
The week of Prayer" services
planned for this week at the First
Baptist church had to be given over
and held with Mrs. Hollis Fort on ac-
count of the coal situation. These
meetings are being enthusiastically
attended, and much benefit is being
derived from the splendid papers be-
ing read. This is an annual occasion
with the missionary societies in First
D"Pt'Sh NhuiCby anu TIE w oman : MIS-
sionary society, the Nellie Worthy
and the Y. w. A. come together at
this week of prayer and lend their
assistance to the cause of missions.
The Music Study club has it's regu-
lar meeting this week with Mrs. Will
Dudley, on Church street, This club
gives splendid programs, and it is a
regrettable fact that more people do
not spare the time from their other
duties to spend an hour listening to
really good music. The papers read
lat this gathering are carefully pre-
pared and very interesting.
The Woman's club is busy now,
very busy, preparing for the conven-
ton to be held in Americas on April
1914 for the purpose of hearing
state speakers froh, the federated
clubs. 1t is hoped the new club house
may be finished and ready by this
time, and the various committees are
bending every energy towards this
achievement. The large reception to
the delegates and visitors will be held
in the club house. Various commit
tees have been appointed from the
clubs to arrange matters, and this
new club house will be both a credit
and a pleasure to the people of
Americas.
