REDUCED PRICES INDUCED BUYING Local Dealers Report Success full Sales of 0idfieId
 Tires

Under stimulus of the recent reductions in prices auto and tire dealers of Bir- mingham report a general increase in business. The public has been quick to take advantage of the unusual buying opportunities that are now being offered. according to survey made in automo- bile circles, The general trend toward reduced prices has caused manufacturers and dealers alike to accept a loss in order to move their high-priced stocks and be in a position to readjust their costs for next season.
 Among the most successful of the sales in high grade automobile tires is the one now in progress at the Weldon Martin Rubber Company. 214 South Twentieth street. Following the announcement Of g forty per cent reduction in Oidfield tires, Weldon Martin have done fifty per cent bigger business each day. Well don Martin report that automobile tire customers are stocking up, buying what ever tires they need now with the real izaton that present reduced prices are not possible for very long.
 Weldon Martin is selling one of the highest grade tires in the market. The Oldfield company furnishes the same guarantee with the tires now being of. NNf'e off as it does with these tires when sold at regular prices Both the man. ufacturer and the local dealers guarantee them to be first-class stock They are the same tires that went the entire zoo miles at this years Indianapolis speed way race on Gaston Chevrolets winning car without a single change. That is the first time in history that tires have accomplished this feat.
 The tires are manufactured by Barney OldfieId. famous veteran speedway driver, who has built into them twenty years racing and road experience. Besides be- ing on the first, second, third and fourth cars at Indianapolis, Oldfield tires won at Tacoma Uniontown and last week at Fresno. California, the big race classics of the country.
 The recent reduction in the price of Odfeld tires made an unusual impress sion on the tire-buying public.

 A call has been sent to all clearing merce, banks and banking associations, officers. directors and members of the American Cotton association. farmers and merchants associations and all all lied interests.
 Men from these institutions will get together to consider all the phases of the cotton situation and formulate plans for a reduction unequalei in the south in co far as the growing of. less cotton is concerned.
 In bringing about the reduction in cotton acreage the executive committee appointed by the Memphis Cotton ex- change are not unmindful of the farm CTS interests.

Atlanta, November 2o.-~Honor of be- ing the champion fiddler of Georgia went to R- M. Stanley, a gray-headed veteran of the bow, here tonight, when he stirred the 5000 or more persons at the Georgia old-time fiddlers' convention with We Will Follow Jesus
 There was almost revival spirit in the audience as the sweet strains of the old hymn were brought out on the vio- lin. Mir. Stanley, 1t was explained, has played only sacred music since his son was killed in the world war.
 There was plenty of levity in the con test however, and Miss Anita Soers won second place with rendition of Casey Jones'" while third honors went to A. 4. Gray, playing "Bonaparte's Retreat" For more than an hour before the actual contest the fiddlers from the hiils of north Georgia and the wire grass section Of south Georgia entertained the crowd with dozens of quaint tunes. 'Ihe
 Lick Skillet Band," with it's rendition oi
 such selections as Miss Nancy, Come 1 Out and Dance in the Light of th- Moon," and another old tune. known as Georgia Cracker Horreiin'." was the big
