Greed usually oversteps itself, and
We have just such result now tran
spring in the cotton industry. In
spite of the small crop, the rapidly
opening markets, and the revival Of
business throughout the country, cot
ton has gone from 81 cents two weeks
ago to 10 cents yesterday. Merchants
all over the South are beginning to
cancel orders. They know full we'll
that with lower priced cotton there
will come ultimately a lower price on
goods. They do not propose to be
made the scape goat along with the
farmer. And they are right. They
are sending in cancellation Of orders.
This in turn will stop manufacture
and slow down the wheels Of indus
try. But it illustrates the point. The
manufacturers cannot hope to get
away with it. If raw material, such
as cotton and hides is to go for a
song, the goods will have to follow
suit, or remain in the hands of the
manufacturers. And it is right that
it should be so Greed oversteps it
self.

Handsome %
Story Building

New York, Nov. 14.-Confident of
becoming an International market of
greater proportions and to some ex-
tent assuming the position held for
generations by the London Stock Ex-
change, the New York Stock Ex-
change is steadily pushing to compile
tion it's handsome 23-story addition.
Despite the reaction which has fol-
lowed almost two years of unprece-
dented speculation and inflated val
ues, officials of Americas leading Sc
curity market apparently have abso-
lutte confidence in the return to the
country of business prosperity.
While trading is slack, they are i'm
proving their opportunity to provide
greater facilities for a future which
to them seems limitless. In addition
to marketing and making otherwise
negotiable some $55,000,000,000 of
American stocks and bonds, the Stock
Exchange has listed about $4,000, ,000,-
900 of foreign securities for trading
on it's floor.
The site Of the new Stock Exchange
wing occupies the block upon Wall
Street between Broad and New
streets in the very heart Of the finan-
cial district. The steel structure,
which rests upon Golfer dam extend
ing to bed rock feet below the street,
is finished and the Georgia marble
facing Of the building should be in

Owing to the complicated mechani
cal and electrical equipment to be

People are Called
Upon to Help

Columbia, Nov. l4.-Resolutions
calling upon the bankers, merchants,
newspaper men and the people of the
state generally to assist in putting
over the cooperative marketing of cot
ton were passed at the meeting of
the organization committee, of the
South Carolina Cotton Growers Co.
operative Association in Columbia
Tuesday. The resolutions declare
the movement one of such vital i'm
portance to the welfare of the state
that everybody should be concerned
as to it's outcome.
The resolutions call attention to
the fact that the general assembly of
the state at it's last session passed
resolutions endorsing the movement.
Similar resolutions have been adopted
by the State. Fair society and many
other organizations over the state.
"It seems to US" says the resolu-
tions "that the cotton farmers only
hope for the future lies in the sue
cessful formation of this association.
The presence of the boil weevil In this
state Is going to force him to restrict
his acreage and will greatly decrease
the production on the acreage that is
planted. How important it is then
that he should secure fair price for
that which he does produce! This he
can do through intelligent market
ing"
In announcing the action of the
committee Harry G. Hammer, presi-
dent, said:
"The cotton farmer is right now
confronted with some very serious
problems.
"He has been pretty hard up
against it before, plenty of times, or
perhaps we should say all the time.
He has possibly been up against it as
hard rs he is at present, but
"Now he stands at the cross roads.
On the one hand he sees stretching
out. before him, twisting and turning,
rough and rutty, the old trail he has
been following since the beginning.
1t has been a hard road and the view
ahead is not encouraging.
"On the other hand is a new,
straight, hardsurfaced road leading
straight to the cotton mill. 1t is a
smooth road, well kept, and in its
surface is stamped this imprint,
Guaranteed by $4,000 satisfied users
Approved by. agricultural special
ists.'
"This new road is built on sound
business-like system, as are all other
highways of industry, which others
arc now following to prosperity.
"The new road is the South Caro-
lima Cotton Growers Cooperative As
sociatin. BY means of it the farmer
can, through his own hired marketing
expert, go all the way to market with
his cotton, guarding it from the losses
in country damages, city crop, specu-
lative profits, unnecessary handling
costs, etc., and take home with him all
of the money the spinner pays in
stead of the small part that has here
tofore been his in the price and the
local buyer has paid him.
"South Carolina farmers are TAX
ing the new road in steadily increas-
ing numbers"
