The State, 23rd.
j. Skottowe Wannamaker, presl
dent of the American Cotton associa'
ton, last night outlined the program
of action which he will ask the big
cotton meeting to be held in Colum'
bia on Wednesday, August 25, tc
adopt. Every other state in the cot
ton belt will be asked to follow suit
The program calls for the forma'
ton of an export trading corpora
ton with a capital stock OF l,Oo0''
900 bales of cotton, all stock to DC
paid i'm cotton; the retirement = "a
per cent. of the growing crop from
the market; a most drastic reduction
in the acreage of the 1921 crop; the
adoption of plan of cooperative
marketing; prohibition of the impor,,
tation of oriental. oils and taking OF
steps looking to legislation requiring
that all cotton be classed upon Amer,
lean classification.
The meeting in Columbia on Wed
nesday promises to be one OF tne
most largely attended cotton meet
ines ever held in the South and de-
finite concrete program OF ACTON 70

South in their fight for a fair price
for their cotton Will be adopted.
Mr.. Wannamaker announced yes
terday that he would submit the fol
lowing recommendation to each
state division:

Formation of an export trading
corporation for the purpose of trad
ing in Europe, the stock of which is i:
to be paid in cotton. 81 shall ask
said MIR. Wannamaker, Chat 1000
coo bales of cotton be subscribed IN
the stock of this corporation and
that each of the cotton producing
states take it's proportionate share
South Carolina raises approximately
one-twelfth Of the cotton crop. South
Cardinals share of this stock would
therefore be between $4,000 and
$4,000 bales of cotton Central Eu-
rope is in desperate need of cotton
and this is the only possible way that
we can get cotton into central Eu-
rope. Every bale of cotton I'VE re-
move from the market will increase
the value of the remaining cotton
and in furnishing central Europe
with raw cotton we will enable them
to enter our market in combination
against the combine which is now
killing IS.
Second, / shall ask the cotton belt
to retire 25 per cent. of the growing
crop in the following manner: Each
state Will retire it's proportionate
share of the growing crop. This will
require South Carolina to retire one

twelfth of 25 per cent. of the grow
ing crop. My plan for retiring this
cotton is as follows:
Retire Portion of Crop.
The producer is to warehouse this
cotton and turn the warehouse re-
ceipt over to bank to be designated
bv the South Carolina division of the
American Cotton association, SAID
bank to give the producer trust re-
ceipt for his warehouse receipt, SAID

before July, 1921; the bank holding

eve must drastically reduce the
1921 acreage. l shall request each
state association to appoint commit
tees in every county and township TO
secure pledges (pledges are frequent
" rot worth the paper they are Wrl1-
ten on), but legally executed, written
and binding contracts, assuring me
reduction of the cotton acreage OF oV
per cent. The contract will permit
the remeasuring of the cotton acre

more than so per cert. the owner per-
n,its the destruction Of his cotton
down to SO per cent. and also lays
himself to violation of contracts. Inc
acreage so reduced will be planted IN
food and feed crops. The world needs
an enormous increased production at
profitable prices of food and feed
crops. / am finding ready coopera-
ton for this plan throughout the
South and am requesting each OF the
governors to issue a proclamation IN
dorsing same.
Bears Short Sighted.
"The organization of bears in its
greed seems to forget that if it's ef-
forts are successful the disastrous re-
suit will not be confined to the South
alone. They boast that we will not
be able to finance our cotton crop
and for this reason will be forced to
sell it regardless of price. This is
the most costly cotton crop ever pro
duced. Prices quoted today mean fl
nancial bankruptts. am requesting
every state to appoint a committee
of it's most able men from its agri-
cultural and commercial life, num-
bering among these its able fnanciers
for the purpose of jointly meeting
with the representatives from every
state for conference with represen-
tatives of the governors of the fed
eral reserve banking system and rep
resentatives of various of the leading
financial institutions Of the country
so that arrangements can be made
for financing this crop.

adoption of a plan of cooperative

Thief WRECKS PRU|TT
CAR IN ROADSIDE DITCH

Stealing a 12 cylinder Haynes be-
longing to w. c. f Pruitt an un-
known thief drove the car towards
Athena and at a point about half way
between Adams and Athena went off
the grade and smashed into a tele-
phone post. So badly wrecked is the
car that the owner will suffer a con-
siderabl loss despite the fact he car
ried burglar insurance.
The two front wheels were knock
ed off, likewise one of the front doors
and the entire front portion of the car
sadly smashed. The motor. however is
still in running order.
The car was stolen from in front of
the Umatilla Auto Co. garage Friday
evening about I O'Clock. Mr.. PrWtt
was at dinner at the time and did not
notice that his car was gone for an
hour after his return. Taking up the
chase he learned that the car had
been seen going out Court street.
About midnight he located the ma
chine in the ditch at the point describ-
ed above.
There is virtually no clue as TO the
identity of the party or parties taking
the car.

TO reflect sharp decline in the north
west The trend suddenly changed
and the advance that, followed was
rapid and without any intermediate
setback of Importance. More COM
plants of damage due to black rust
were received than on any one day
this season, and from new territory. A
car of No. red wheat from an Illi-
nois point sold at cents decline COM
pared with Saturday. while at same
time bids to arrive were advanced 2
cents, the first sign Of Improvement
since trading in Wheat futures was in
augnrated. Liberal export sales re-
ported and stronger feeling obtained
at the seaboard and at Gulf. Visible
supply decreased 2,23S.OOO bushels.
The export demand promises to over
shadow the effect of new crop offer
ings for the time being.
Corn-with the exception OF a small
break early in the day based on the
decline in wheat, the market had n
strong tone throughout the session
and closed at best prices since the low
point was reached last week. Dis
quitting rumors regarding the possibIi-
ity OF further labor troubles on the
railroads should the wage award be
announced tomorrow prove unsatisfac-
tory, contributed to the uneasiness OF
the shorts as did the low tempera-
lures of the surplus corn states. Re-
celpts have shown a material falling
off and will be much lighter as soon
as corn in transit has been cleared IN.
The news since the middle of last
week has gradually turned in favor OF
holders and with the market thor
oughly liquidated. a higher range OF
prices should result.
Oats fluctuations were Influenced
most entirely by action of wheat and
corn Cash started steady to a shade
higher but eased toward the close with
light quality finding poor demand.
Weather and crop conditions general

follow the upturns in wheat and corn

that the governor was ready to be

was delightful. The president was at
his best, recalling any detail inquired
about as bearing upon the interna-

whole conference with humorous an
ecdotes now and then in his old-time
characteristic way. We are agreed
as to the meaning and sufficiency of
the democratic platform and the duty
of the party in the face of threatened
bad faith to the world in the name of
America. His thought is still of the
war and the pledges we gave to those
who sacrificed.
