INCREASE IN PRICE
Of COTTON PASSED
QUICKLY To GROWER

According to announcement by
President j. E. Conwell, the di
rectors of the Georgia Cotton Grow
ers' Cooperative association have
authorized all members to draw 30
cents pound as initial payment on
cotton at the time of delivery.
The resolution is now in effect
and ali banks in the state have been
notified to accept members drafts
drawn for 20 cents per pound on
all cotton delivered to the associa.
ton until further notice. Previous TO
this time, the association has ad
vanced Is cents a pound as an I'M
tial payment to the member when
he delivered his cotton.
1t is announced further that work
has already been commenced in
sending out an additional five cents
a pound on all cotton delivered by
members heretofore, which. wheA
completed. will bring the advance up
to 20 cents per pound to all mem
bers etf
The association officials state that
mailing the additional five cents a
pound will require several days in
view of the large number of ac
counts to be handled but that this
will be done as fast as possible.
On this date last year the asso
citation had advanced to it's mem.
bers on cotton delivered at that
time, less than $2,250,000. This year
the association has advanced APP
DrOXin1atelv S3750 600 to. its mem.
bers at ID cents a pound, who d.
sired an advance at the time Of dc.
livery. This year many thousands of
bales of cotton have been received
from members who did not desire an
advance when they delivered their
cotton.
''This increase in our initial pay
m ut is in line with the policy of
the association to pay the members
just as much money as is consistent
with good business" stated Mr.. Con-
well. He said further that this pol
icy is all the more helpful in Geor-
gia this year in view of the fact that
tho state has the shortest cotton crop
in over forty years.
eff we, as individuals and business
firms, are to prosper in Georgia, we
must cooperate" he said. 81 mean,
all of us-farmers, merchants and
bankers. Our lack of understand
ing, wherever such is the case, must
be wiped out. 1t is gratifying to
know that cooperative marketing is
doing this among so many people and
lines Of business that heretofore
have not worked together for mutual
benefit

Rhine Bank Cashier
Chases Gypsy Band
And Receivers $3.50

ABBEVILLE, Ga, Nov. 21.-S. J.
Brown. cashier of the Bank of
Rhine, proved too smart for a band
of gypsies which stole $3.50 from
the bank right under his eyes Tues
day. 1t took an automobile chase
through the country, however, and
drawn guns, to recover the money.
They presented a 500 bill for
change, and as Mr.. Brown was
counting the money a woman slip
ped around the railing. The cashier
saw her, became suspicious and
counted his money as quickly as
possible. He found himself $3.50
short. He telephoned Ulcers in sew
e. al towns, and the marshal in
Chauncey tried to stop the gypsies,
but was unable. Mr.. Brown and his
party, in hot pursuit, overlook the
strangers at Jaybird Spring, and
with drawn guns, told them they
had to have the money, and it was
given up, although the gypsies tried
to retain 500 of it. The three men
ard two women had about $1,000
with them, according to Mr.. Brown.
NO arrests were made.

SAVANNAH LIQUOR
INDICTMENTS COVER
ALL PARTS Of u. s.

SAVANNAH, Ga, Nov. Elm
dictments returned by the federal
grand jury yesterday include 126 diff
ferent defendants in various parts of
the United States, according to a
statement today by Charles l.. Red
ding, United States assistant district
attorney. 1t is stated between forty
and fifty indictments were returned.
Mr.. Redding stated in response to
an inquiry by the Press that the

country. north, south, east and west.
They involve. charges of conspiracy
to violate the national dry law,
shipping, transportating, possess
sion and importing of liquors.
Names of those indicted are not
available for publication at this time
because of the fact that arrests are
to be made in various sections under
the indictments. 1t is understood
from the government attorney that
0ut-of town defendants are named in
indictments in which Savannah peo-
pie appear and for this reason none
of the indictments are available for
publication.
The action of the grand jury is
classified in official circles as one of
the greatest coups in prohibition
law enforcement in the eastern sec.
ton of the country.
Reports from washington today
were that the indictments are the
result of the work Of department of
justice agents radiating from Wash
ington. Not all of the details are
known locally, but it is understood
the investigation covers coastwise
shipments and other big liquor &C.

LENGTHY DEBATE
ON INCOME: TAXES
SLATED IN HOUSE

Argument on the Landlord income
tax bill was resumed in the house
of representatives Wednesday after
days delay spent in having the
bill and various amendments and
substitutes printed for distribution
among the members
Representative Rowe, of Rich
mond county, was the first speaker
arguing in favor of a substitute that
he had offered for the Landlord
bill. His substitute provides for a
classification of property for the
purpose of taxation.
Representative Bozeman, of Worth
county, spoke against the income tax
measure and Representative Covine-
ton, of Colquitt county, spoke in ia
Vor of the Bussey substitute.
Other members who had given
their names to Speaker Neil, indi-
eating that they would discuss the
income tax, were Representatives
Peterson, of Montgomery county;
: Harris, Of Jefferson; Mann, of Glenn:
Bozeman, of Worth; Elders, of TAFT
nall; Stewart. of Atkins; Culpepper,
or F,ayette, and Bussey, of Crisp. 1t
also was understood that there would
be several other speakers.
Under the rules of the house, each
speaker is allowed one hour, and
with at least ten members prepared
to make addresses, there appeared
to be little chance of a vote on the
bill before Thursday or Friday.
Bussey's Mother Ill
Representative Bussey, of Crisp
county, author of one substitute for
the Landlord bill, had not returned
Wednesday from Cordele, where he
was called by the critical illness of
his mother. 1t had been reported
that Mrs. Bussey was dead and the
house adopted resolutions of SYM
pathy Tuesday, but corrected the res
olutlon Wednesday s. as to express
sympathy in the serious illness of
Mrs. Bussey.
The bill under discussion is the
measure of Senator Landlord, al
Te"uN passed by the senate, prOVld-
ing for tax upon net incomes, and
the reduction of the ad Valorem tax
rate from FIVE mills to three mills.
The constitutional attachments
committee of the house has offered
three amendments, one of which
strikes out met incomes" and sub
stitutes the word income" another
OF which eliminates the scale Of ex
emption, and the third eliminating
the right to set off ad valorem
taxes against income taxes.
Would Raise Exemption
Representative Mann, of Glynn
county, has offered an amendment to
reduce the ad valorem ia xrate from
5 mills to 4 mills, and Representative
Lindsey, of Wilkes county, proposed
to make the exemption for married
men IS 900 instead of 81 500
