many present wasteful methods,
shorten the route between, the pro-
ducer and spinner and secure for the
producer a larger share Of the price
paid by the spinner.
Seventh, it will determine the
cost of production of cotton. This
will assist in asking a price which
will yield profit to the producer.
Eighth, it will encourage and de-
velop tbe production of uniform and
standard varieties. This will assist
still further in pool selling and in Sc
curing better price.
'Ninth, it will advise with growers
on production methods and problems
This will be essentially helpful and
profitable.
"This program can be carried out
only in one way and that is under the
plan of organization outlined in the
agreement of the cooper
ative association. This association
will begin to function when men,
bership representing at least 100000
bales of cotton is secured. Each
member, regardless of the number
of bales the producers signs legally
binding marketing contract With
the association representing himself
and every other member, in which all
members agree to sell all of their
cotton through the association for a
period of five years. That's the big
point in the matter. 1t guarantees
that the association will stick and
that it will. be able to deliver the
goods"

DEFENDANTS IN
MATTEWAN TRIAL
ARE ACQUITTED
One Of the Most Famous of Criminal
Trials Is Ended in Acqulttal
Of Defendants This
Morning.

Williamson, W. Va, March q. -
The 16 defendants on trial in con-
Eection with killing of Baldwin-Felts
detectives in gun battle at Matewan
last May were found not guilty by q
jury here today.
The men were being tried on the
specific charge of killing Albert G.
Feltz, leader Of the detectives in the
Matewan trouble.
The jury's verdict ends a trial
which has been in progress nearly two
months and which, in number of de-
PENDANTS and number of killing with
which they were charged, was unique
in American criminal court history.
Selection OF jury began late in
January Originally there were "a
men indicted. AS the trial progressed
the state struck from the list one by
one until finally 16 remained.
These included Sid Hatfield, 27,
police chief of Matewan; Reece
Chambers, whose name is written in
feud history; his nephew, Halle
Chambers, and his son, Ed Chambers,
a youth scarcely out of his teens.
The specific indictment on which
they were tried was the murder of
Albert G. Felts, detective, though
other indictments charged the murder
of Lee Felts, brother, and five other
Felts Baldwin detectives at Matewan,
Mingo county, May 10, 1920.
The trouble which led to the street
battle in which the seven detectives
and three other persons we're killed
wGs the direct outgrowth of a war be-
tween mine operators and miners in
Nlingo county.
