PLAN RESERVE CORPS FORMER
 WAR VETERANS
BY COL. WINFIELD JONES

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12-(Special Correspondence).- ).-Plans are now be- ing considered by national leaders of | the veteran organizations in Washing ton to launch a plan for a veterans reserve corps, which would be A sort of auxiliary to the regular army, the national guard and the officers re. serve corps.
 Only veterans of the World war and the war with Spain and the Philippine insurrection would be elig- ible for membership in the proposed veterans reserve corps, which it is planned to have under jurisdiction of the the war department, with regular annual appropriations from congress for equipment and support of the corps.
 There are more than 4,500,00o vet erans of the World war in the Unit. ed States. Their leaders here and the chiefs of the other veteran organ. izations, such as the Veterans of For. etgn Wars, United Spanish War Vet erans, with which are incorporated the veterans of the Philippine cam- paigns, say that if the war depart. ment and congress will back the plan the veterans reserve corps would soon number more than one million trained and experienced form. CT soldiers.
 The plan is to have the veterans reserve corps put under separate and new bureau at the war depart. ment, ahd to organize the reserve along the present organization of the national guard, but totally separate from the guard.
 The veterans would be organized in companies, battalions, regiments, brigades, and divisions, and would be attached to the corps area scheme into which the United States is di- vided from military standpoint, at present.
 AS separate organization the pro- posed veterans reserve corps would be armed and equipped the same as the national guard, and would per form most of the duties of the guard, except that drills would not be as

will be Of inter 1T to bankers, business
men generally, and to farmers in the
Coastal Plain sections of the Carroll

Sour cream dairying, hogs and poul-
try is program that is appealing
to business men, bankers, and

industry as we'll as to the farmers
themselves.
The fact that sntton as the principal
source of cash income and as a safe
basis for credit is no longer dependa-
bic and safe, is apparent to everyone
and while we shall continue to produce
cotton, we now lealize that the econ

stuffs, paying more therefore than it
would cost to produce those nccessi-
