OLD CHIEF CLERK.
ONCE SMITHVILLE
RESIDENT, is DEAD

ATLANTA, Dec. 27.-Joel f.
Johnson, chief clerk of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture for more than
twenty years. died Monday at the
residence of his daughter, Mrs. NJ.
D. Reybold. He became chief
clerk Of the Department of Agri-
culture on November is, 1909,
when o. B. Stevens was commits
sioner of Agriculture and has serv-
ed continuously in the position.
Since he became chief clerk five
different men, o. B. Stevens, I.
G. Hudson, J-.d.eConnon, J. D.
Price and j. j. Brown have served
as commissioner of agriculture,
and each appointed Mr.. Johnson

Born at Philadelphia. Tenn, Oc-
tober 20, 1852, Mr.. johnson moved
in early boyhood to the town of
Smithville, Ga, and resided there

HOW EUROPEAN
BUY Low COTTON
Need To Export Only Half Of
Manufactured Goods, U. S.
Department Shows

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27. = Thai
Germany and Poland, as well as 9TH
er European countries where wages
are comparatively low, can continue
to purchase and manufacture cotton
if they can export slightly less than
half their manufactured product is
evident from careful survey Of the
facts made by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. The mills
in these countries can use an av-
erage grade of strict low middling
American cotton which should cost
them, laid down at the point of man.
ufacture, about 19 cents a pound, or
$95 bale. An average of 85 per
cent of each bale of cotton can be
manufactured into cloth of hosiery
yarns This means that AIS pounds
of cotton cloth can be manufactured
from one bale of cotton. The coars-
est of this cloth should sell for about
33 cents pound and finished print
cloths and hosiery at SO cents or
better, the average for all being full
ly as cents a pound. At this aver
age price, total of $191.25 would
be received by the manufacturer for
the products derived from one bale
of cotton
If slightly less than half of the
goods can be exported and paid for
in dollars or other COMPARATIVELY
nigh valued currency it would keep
the mill owner supplied with suf-
ficient money to purchase the new
stocks Of cotton necessary to keep
his mill in operation and he would
be independent of the fluctuations in
the rate of exchange of the money
Of his own country. In addition,
profits can be derived from sales in
his own country where he and his
employees live and purchase the ne
cessities of life with cheap money
ard thus add to the favorable posi-
tiou of those manufacturers who con
duct their business in countries hav-
ing a deprecated currency.

GEORGIA TO AID
IN WILSON FUND
To Play Prominent Part In Rais-
ing 81, 100000 Memorial
To Ex-President

ATLANTA, Dec. 27,-Beginning
January 16, nationwide effort is
to be made, according to announce
ment made here, to raise $1,O00,000
to institute a Woodrow Wilson Foun-
dation, which annually will award a
prize to some distinguished .accomp-
ishment in the interest of world
peace or along the lines of the great
ideals which dominated MI. Wilson
.as president Of the United States.
Georgia is TO have an opportunity
to participate in this great effort. An
organization has been perfected with
Pleasant A. Stovall, editor of the Sa-
vannah Press, as state chairman, to
have in hand The proposition as 1t re-
tates to this state and it will be the
task Of this organization, it IS stated
here, to procure Georgia's share OF
the fund which this state is expected
TO raise.
The feeling was voiced here when
the movement was first proposed
that Georgia ought really take lead
ership in this enterprise iinasmuch
as il was in this state-in fact IN At
iarta-- that he studied and was ad-
mitted to the legal profession and
started his practice; that his first
wife was a Georgia girl and that the
state may we'll claim to have aided
in the laying of foundations OF that
wonderful character which has made
Mr.. wilson's name to link with those
Of Washington and Lincoln.
II is stated here by prominent At
lantans that there arc some intimate
friends Of the former president who
are so Interested in this effort and
who believe it so worthy of the man
in whose honor the Foundation is to
be established that they will see that
the necessary financial support is
Forthcoming, whatever may be the
porular response to the enterprise.
The idea in the minds OF the organl-
zation leaders, however, is that as
many as possible of the people should
have part in the endeavor. 1t IS
believed that they will want to have
q part no matter how small it may
be in order TO attest their own es-
TEEN for the man and in order to
share in a movement that will per-
pctuate his most worthy enterprises
It is for this reason alone. that the
$1,000, 900 is to be procured by pop
ular subscription. Contributions, it
is stated, will be received and appre-
ciated in denominations of even
dimes and nickels in order to allow
even little children and those of ord
mary means to contribute some part
of the fund.
State Chairman Stovall has declar-
ed that insofar as Georgia is con-
cerned, he could ask leading men for
large contributions and raise every
cent of this states quota, but he
wanted to give everybody an oppor-
tunity to contribute something. To
