COTTON GROWERS OF
WEST TENNESSEE ORGANIZE

From present indications the great
bulk of the cotton produced in West
Tennessee in 1928 will be sold CO.
opcratively through live cotton as
ISOLATION. To start things moving
in this direction a number of the
largest cotton growers of the section
met at jackson recently and organ
lied the Tennessee Cotton Associa-
tion after thorough discussion OF
results that have been accomplished
during the past two years in eight
other Southern States through SINH
lar organization.
Judge L. L. Conley, of Crockett
County was selected chairman of the
organization committee and ar
rangements were made with the
State Farm Bureau for the financing
of the association and other machin-
cry for putting the association on its
feet in good shape in short time
was set up. Headquarters will be in
Jackson.
The association will begin a def
mite campaign for membership in ev-
cry cotton county early in 1928. Its
plan is to secure 10000 bales to be
sold by the association, those join
ing signing their names to a five year
ot y, iah lie for hn da1iunpx,
of all cotton grown by them for the
period.
The association will become nom
profit organization without capital
stock and it's main object will be to
stabilize prices for cotton by the feed
ing of the crop to the market in an
orderly way.-Extension News Serv-
ice, University Of Tennessee.

SHIP SUBSIDY BEFORE CONGRESS
Geddes Denies Britain Seeks to In
fuence Congressman.

Washington, Dec. 4,-The ad-
ministration ship subsidy bill sailed
into dangerous waters as tle measure
was taken U0 in the House for
amendments.
Republican leaders who claimed
there has been decided shift of sen
timent their way during the past few
days, professed confidence, that the
bill would weather the gale without
material change in it's essential fea-
lures and substantially as President
Harding wants it. Subsidy opponents
were just as confident they would be
able to "shoot the bill to pieces"
BITTER FIGHTS LIKELY.
Indications are the bitterest fights
willcome on amendments to be pro-
posed which would:
l. Eliminate from the benefits of
the subsidy the Standard Oil Com
pany, United States Steel Corpora
ton, United Fruit Company, the Gulf
Refining Sinclair Oil Company, and
other big corporations, which carry
their products in their own vessels.
2. Greatly increase the interest
rate which shipping lines would pay
on money loaned them The figure
in the bill is 2 per cent.
3. Establishment of more fixed
terms under which the 1,400-odd
ships owned by the government will
be offered for sale. AS the bill stands,
these ships could be virtually "given
away"
4. Specify that the government YES
sells cannot be gobbled up by one or
two powerful combinations.
5. Making the shipping board
come back to Congress every year
with a complete accounting and ask
for appropriations to continue the
subsidy. The bill now authorizes a
10-year appropriation, CLAIMED neces-
sary by subsidy drafters to enable
the making of 10-year contracts.
REBATE FOR FARMERS.
6. Give farmers and producers
generally throughout the country a
freight rebate of 2 per cent on goods
shipped from interior points for ship
ping on vessels receiving subsidy
aid. This amendment will be backed
by the Western farm bloc and shows
promise of carrying.
Consideration of amendments will
be through Wednesday and a final
vote on the subsidy taken that night,
Ambassador Geddes of Great Brit
ain placed a communication before
Hughes denying that the
British government was involved in
any attempt to influence the decision |
of Congress on the ship subsidy |
measure.
Geddes particularly denied that
be or any member of his embassy
staff had made an offer to Mathew
Quay Glazer, one of the editors of a |
farmers national magazine in Gin
,innati for the publication of a num-
Der of articles against the subsidy |
