These are the facts. The figures
aIe startling but We believe they are
correct. They were prepared by the
Cotton Acreage Reduction Committee
at Memphis, Tenn, appointed by the
sreat convention OF bankers. farmers
o.,d merchants held at Memphis. This
committee consulted with the best
posted cotton men ir the world.
''There is one point which we desire
to stress regarding the pledges. They
do not require Il farmc" to cut his
acreage 80 per cent. They merely re-
quire that II. plant only onc-third Of
his cultivated land in cotton. Ii he

whether the pledge affects him or not,
to sign the pledge because We desire
to announce that q definite number OF
farmers have signed. This announce
ment followed by similar announce
ment from each OF the other cotton
states will SHOW the world that the
South is in earnest this time and will
have a good effect on the market.
THE situation is so serious that We
appeal to every farmer. every mer-
chant. every banker, every profession
al man: to every newspaper, every
chamber of commerce and statewide
OrganiZa ton to join in the fight. We
believe that the other states are going
to reduce. Reports indicate that they

Declaring that the time has come
when the truth regarding the cotton
situation must be driven home to
every farmer in the state, the South
Carolina Division of the American
Cotton Association has issued a state
ment appealing to every organization
in South Carolina to assist it lnSitS
efforts to secure an acreage reduction
in the state this year.
Statistics are given which tend TO
show that on the first of next August
before. bale of the 1921 crop Is
picked, there will be on hand sur
plus of over 8, 100000 bales. or almost
a one-third crop. 1t is declared that
the planting of anything hike nor
NAL acreage in cotton this year Will
be simple suicidal business polcy
not alone for farmers but for every
business interest in the South. For
this reason it is declared that the
business and professional men should
be active in the movement to secure
acreage reduction.
.sThe gravity of the situation con-
fronting the South as regards the
planting of another cotton crop and
the apprehension on our part that
there are thousands Of people in our
state who do not comprehend just
what we are up against impels us to
issue this appeal to the farmers, busi-
ness and professional men of South
Carolina" says the statement issued
by the South Carolina Division of the
American Cotton Association. 1--WE
feel that it is our duty to place the
facts squarely before them, as start
ling as they are, in order that every
organized agency in the state may join
with us in our efforts to see to it that
no farmer in South Carolina plants
over one-third of his cultivated land
in cotton this year. To do otherwise
will be to invite disaster and financial
bankruptcy.
, zone of the most alarmming fea-
lures of the present situation is that
there are so many who contend that
they cannot meet the requirements Of
the association that they plant only
one-third of their land in cotton. They
seem not to stop to consida' that it
would perhaps be better that they
plant no cotton at all than to plant it
and be forced to sell next fall at a
price far below the cost of production,
which we believe they will surely have
to do if over one-half crop is raised
this year. To those who still have
their last years crop on hand we
