WELBORN PARDON MAY
BE OF NO VALUE

Attorney General Clayon D. Pot
ter has prepared and will Thursda
present to supreme court judges 2
motion to advance the Cleveland
habeas corpus case on the docket
The case involves the validity of
a pardon issued in the fall of 1922
by Lieut.. Governor Casteel, during
brief temporary absence of Gov
ernor Russell at Memphis. The par
don was sustained by Chancello
Emmett N. Thomas, of Greenville
but was appealed by the state -
the supreme court. General Pott'
is quite hopeful that the motion wi |
be sustained by the appellate tribv
nal, and the case be disposed of that
much earlier. On such decision -
the court may render rests the quee-
ton of vidility of the recent Sha .
Welborn pardon issued with its in
tensely melodramatic setting by Gov
Casteel at Canton, as to which coz
flicting views and doubts exist.

Buildings erected at Camp Meade,
Md, on the outskirts of Washington,
to house soldiers during the war
were sold this week by the United

The buildings, equipment, and fix

represents a net loss of $9,750,000.

COTTON ASSOCIA-
TON ADVANCING
14c POUND

Jackson, Miss, September. 49,
Members of the Mississippi Farm
Bureau Cotton Association will be
permitted to draw drafts for ID cer'
a pound as first payment on cotton
delivered to the Association, accord
in to an announcement issued here
today. This is a raise of cents a
pound and brings the first advance
to the members up to $1,000 per bale,
based on 500-pound bales.
In authorizing the members to draw
Ia cents pound on cotton delivered,
Sales Manager w. c. Neal said,
"On account of the short crop due to
excessive rains, weevil, worms and
insect damage we feel that the
members need every dollar that the
Association can advance them and
stay within the bounds of sound
finance. They are, therefore, un-
til further notice, authorized to
draw Ia cents a pound against their
cotton and the banks have been noti-
fled to honor the drafts against the
Association accordingly.
Cotton deliveries to the Association
are steadily climbing and in spite of
the short crop the officials are con-
fident of a large part of the crop
being handled comparatively. There
are more than 1890 members in the
Association and new members are
being added daily with a splendid
spirit of cooperation being sshown in
all parts of the State.
