Six Peanut Suits Have
Been Filed In Court
None in Terrell County Charged With
Violating Their Contracts.

While only six suits had actually
been filed through Saturday by the
Georgia Peanut Growers Co-Opera-
tive Association against members al
legged to have broken their contracts
plans were being made to sue others
unless they came in and paid the pen
atty required under the contract, Col
onel r. E. L. Spence, president and
general manager OF the peanut asso-
citation, stated.
Those who have actually had suits
filed against them in the superior
courts OF their respective counties are:
l.. F. Brown. of Lee county; d. R.
Hunt. OF Decatur county; T. w
Cuhes of Mitchell county; w. L.
Bateman, of Colquitt county, c. A.
Smith, of Worth county, and d. C.
Wynn, Of Colquitt county.
Under the contract each member
signed he is required to pay two cents
pound, or $40 a ton, into the asso-
citation for all the peanuts sold on the
outside. Some of the defaulters, who
probably yielded to the temptation OF
high prices that the association had
such big part in bringing about
have actually gone to the association
Office at Albany and paid their dam
ages without suits, thus saving the
cost of court trials.

crude carrier, and with mother walk
ing by their side they set out in a

is MADE CHARM OF
FORGET ME-NOT DRIVE
MRS. M'NULTY WILL LEAD A
MOVEMENT IN BEHALF OF
DISABLED VETERANS.

MRS. J. M McNulty has been ap-
pointed by DIR. Louis Prosterman, of
Atlanta. state chairman of the cam
paign, as chairman at Dawson in the
Forget Me Not" campaign in Geor-
gia on November 3rd. This campaign
will be conducted for the benefit of
nearly 10000 disabled veterans of the
world war now in Georgia by the
state organization of the Disabled
American Veterans of the World War
The intensive campaign will occupy
one day, November 3rd, and residents
of every city in the state will be ask
ed to give as large donations as they
possibly can to the women selling
forget-me-nots on the streets of the
city and in its buildings in the inter
est of the campaign. Chairmen are
being appointed for the various cities
on the basis of their known ability,
and the interest they have shown in
times past in the welfare of those who
were wounded in the war overseas.
Even now, although industrial con-
ditions have improved considerably,
thousands of sons of Georgia, figures
show, who wore the khaki during the
war are in want because of wounds
received in defense of their country
on foreign battlefield. Hundreds of
families of these veterans are in need,
and Forget e-Not" day will be held
lest those Americans who did not see
service overseas forget the sacrifice
that others made.
The money raised by the campaign
will be used to supplement the work
of the government in caring for the
disabled men, in helping men get
training and to help those who are
now in distress Government aid is
given OH the basis of one dollar for
what is officially rated as one per cent
disability, and a veteran must be at
least fifteen per cent disabled to re-
ceive any compensation.
A veteran with one leg shot off on
ly receives fifty dollars a month from
the government which amount is
proving insufficient to care for many
veterans who cannot obtain employ
ment on account of their disability.
Consequently aid from civilians who
do not bear the wounds of war are
being asked to assist these men, and
Forget Me-Not" day will be held for
that purpose.

RUSSIA MUST PROCURE
THOUSANDS OF TRACTORS
Soviet Russia Has Not Yet Made Up
Its Mind Concerning Free
Trade.

BY The Associated Press,
Moscow, May 4.-Faced on the one
hand with q nationwide need for
auto trucks and tractors. and on the
other with struggling home indus
try In the manufacture of these ma
cvhines, the government departments
directing the foreign trade policy or
Soviet Russia have not yet made up
their minds whether they should
stand for FIRE trade or a protective
tariff.
Russia has little money to spend
for trucks and tractors abroad, but
some day hopes TO be able to supply
every community with at least one
farm tractor. Before the state plan
commission II WITS declared recently
that, during the next ten years, the
nation would need 100000 20-horse-
power tractors, but only $4,000 could
be purchased abroad. The remainder
will have to be secured elsewhere.
Russian factories are now turning out
a few tractors, and these are said TO
be of excellent capacity. Those ia
voring protection of this infant in
dustry want a high tariff on tractors
from abroad.
Several hundred tractors have been
brought to Russia by various agri-
cultural colonists and some foreign
relief organizations, but they are suf-
to replace an infinitesimal
percentage of the horses and other
draft animals who died by the hun
dreds of thousands during the recent
famine
