MUST SELL COTTON
WITH ASSOCIATION

John X. Pope, Marlboro, EniOined
From DispOsing OF Staple other
wise.
Columbia, Oct. G.-An injunction re-
straining John r. Pope, of Marlboro
county, from disposing of any Of his
cotton except throuph the South
Carolina Cotton Growers Co-operative
association was served upon Mr.. Pope
at his home some eight miles from
Bennettsville today, it was announced
tonight by officials of the South Caro-
lima Cotton Growers Cooperative as
sociation.
The Injunction was granted by
Judge II. j. Mauldin in Columbia
Thursday on complaint filed by Doug
las McCay, State counsel of the CO.
operative association, alleging that
Mr.. Pope has disposed of some cotton
which he had contracted to sell
through the association. The COM
plant alleged that Mr. Pope had sold
this cotton at Cheraw. Mayor Josiah
ed with Mr.. AIcCay in the case.
Officials of the association stated
tonight that Mr.. Pope was the only
member out Of the over 1000 mem
bers Of the organization that it had
been forced to bring legal proceedings
against. Not another allegation OF
violation of the contract has been
made, 1t was said
Under the provisions Of the special
act passed at the 1921 session Of the
general assembly any member of the
association violating the contract is
liable to a penalty OF five cents a
pound on all cotton sold outside of the
association.
"rhe great majority Of the farmers
who signed the contract did so be-
cause Of its binding features" said
Harry G. Hammer, president and gen
eral manager Of the association to-
: night. "There is practically a unani-
nous sentiment among our members
that the association vigorously en-
force the contract and that every pro-
vision OF the special act passed by
the general assembly be taken adj
vantage of in its enforcement. This
we propose to do"
In Oklahoma cases were recently
brought against several members for
violation of the contract, one member
has voluntarily paid the five cents a
pound penalty and all Of them have
ton except through the association.
Arkansas has reported one violation
of the contract and Georgia one.
