THE s. G. COTTON ASSOCIATION
Preparing to Take Action Against It's
Members who Violate Contracts,

Columbia, Oct. 30.-Every men,
Der Of the South Carolina Cotton
Growers Cooperative Association
who sells cotton outside Of the as
ISOLATION will be proceeded against
IN the courts Of the State and forced
to pay liquidated damages Of five
cents pound for every pound sold
outside OF the association. The Off
clals of the association feel that
there Is no alternative for them in
this matter and they are determined
to invoke every provision of the law
passed by the General Assembly pro-
tect1ng the association from VIOLA
tons of the contract against every
member who does violate It,
Several members Of the associa-
ton have been reported for violat-
Ing the contract-probably about six
In all. Rigid Investigations are be-
Ing conducted in each case, and If
the. association finds that the con-
tract has been violated, and If the
contract has been really violated, :,
legal proceedings will follow.
Members of tho association are al
most unanimous in demanding that
all violators Of the contract be pro-
ceoded against. They declare that to
permit any one guilty of preaching
the contract to escape would be to
break the backbone OF the orgahiza-
tion and would create spirit Of dis
satisfaction among members. ),
we propose, to proceed without
fear or favor against every man who
does, not fully live up 10 the con-
tract, says a statement by the as
ISOLATION. ""Thus far there have
been only about six alleged viola
tions Of the contract. We are investi-
eating each one Of these carefully,
and will proceed in each case as The
result Of our investigation justifies.
The members Of the association may
rest assured that no guilty party will
escape" ~ 80
