MISSISSEPPI IS
FACED WITH A
COTTON CRISIS
Sheriff Is Used As Employ

To Harvest Crop
r. JOHN L. HAMPTON

United Press Staff Correspondent
New ORLEANS, Sept. 20 UP
Deep in the Mississippi delta cot
ten lards where the tall, dark
green plants have turned white
under bumper crop of the
worlds finest staple. Three men
lounged in the shade at a cross
roads.

but man, I don't want to pick
cotton. ThatIl kill man in this

The man with the black hat
flippcd open his vest, showing a
star.
"Okay. stranger, he said. IF
you don't pick cotton we got a
Jedgc thatll let you have leg irons
or work 80 days or the chain
gang. We got lots of roads to fix
down in Mississippi now"
A few minutes later Ed and his
chief hired man crankcd up their
ramshaklc car. The tramp was in
the back seat.
I'll be back about SundOWn, -
the planter called. See If you
can't git me about five mo- stout

I'll try, but the buns are
dodgin' the delta now called the
man with the black nat.
Day and night, the great Miss
issippi cotton crop is moving to
the gins. But the planters can't
get the crop out fast enough and
many face ruin among their fields
Of white gold.
They need from 5000 TO 10000
field hands at once. Estimates
vary. Half of the 81 Mississippi
counties are short of help, but the
rich Yazoo and Mississippi delta
region especially suffers. The dis
trict produces long-staple cotton,
the most valuable variety.
Men. women and children have
been pressed into service, getting
the crop out Of the fields. At tank
stops and in railway jungleS, the
hobocs have been collected and the
highways watched for unWary
hitch mixers.
The present seasonal southern
hospitality asks no questions about
a mans past and draws no color
lines. So pressing is the need for
help that one Jasper County farm
er allegedly used a shotgun to in
duce four Negro hands to work
in his fields. He kept them safely
locked in a corn crib at highland
now faces kidnap charges.
Thousands Of WPA workers
have been transferred from their
regular projects to the cotton
fields. As a result, the S42,500,000
Mississippi highly building pro-
gram is iepoardized.
State Agriculture Commissioner
J. C. EoltOn estimates Mississippi
farmers may receive this year
from sale Of cotton and COCtonseed
alone nearly as much as their to-
tai income from all sources last
year including Federal benefits.

illusions on God and man is at the
outset of his chapter on evil
"All finite life is a struggle with
evil. Yet from the final point of
view the whole is good. The tenn
poral order contains at no one mo-
ment anything that can satisfy. Yet
the eternal order is perfect. We
have sinned, and come short of
the glory of God.
"Yet, in just our life, viewed in
its entirety, the glory of God is
completely manifest. These hard
sayings are the deepest expressions
of the essence of true religion. They
are also the most inevitable outcome
of philosophy"
At another point Mr.. Royce says
Nowhere in time is perfection to
be found. Our comfort lies in the
knowledge of the eternal. Strength
ened by that knowledge we can
win the most enduring of temporal
joys, the consciousness that makes
us delight to share the worlds grave
glories and to take part in its di-
vine sorrows-sure that these sor-
rows are the means of the eternal
triumph, and that these glories are
the treasures of the house of God.
When once this comfort comes
home to us, we can run and not be
weary, and walk and not faint. For
our temporal life is the very ex-
preston of the eternal triumph"

Is
Seen as Enemy
Of Christianity
The Rev. F. A. PfIeiderer
Points Out Dangers of
Attitude.

BY THE REV. F. A. PFLEIDERER,
Pastor, Sutherland Presbyterian Church
There have been many discussions
of the question, IF Christianity had
never existed" but these are purely
imaginary. But there is a possible
ty of Christianity being blotted out
You say this is what they are try
ing to do in Russia. The leaven of
Christianity is still in Russian So
ciety and it is not being done by
the consent of the common people
Religion is still a vital part of the
life of the Russian people although
they are seeking to overthrow re-
ligious system. In my humble opin-
ion the danger is not as serious in
Russia, where they rae trying to
force the people to abandon religion,
as it is in the United States where
neglect and Indifference is causing
America to lose its religious con-
seriousness.
What I mean by Christianity be-
ing blotted out is not by official act
or by the state but by indifference,
and by men leaving God out of their
lives. Not that we would tear down
our churches, but we do stay away
from them, we do not use them, and
we let them close for lack of sup
port. Through failure to use Chris
tianity in life and the neglect to
propagate it there is sdanger of
losing it. A fire will burn itself out
much quicker than if we try to beat
it out-for the sparks fly and new
fires are ignited.
Love Would Be Lost
Without God there is no challenge
to the moral conscience, and when
every man does that which is right
in his own eyes he is lost to the bet
ter life. Our practice of the prin-
ciple of love would soon be lost to
the world. Men would learn to hate
each other, envy and jealousy would
abound, murders and wars would
increase. In very shotr time there
would be an abundant crop OF weeds.
Our boasted civilization could not
long endure if Christianity were
hlotted out through indifference.
Hopelessness and despair would
soon settle down upon the hearts
and souls of men and we would have
another Dark Age. The world is
lost without the gospel of Christ.
Without it there would be complete
breakdown of the principles of
Righteousness. Personally, this is
happening to many today. They
have lost faith, the light has gone
out of the world for them, and Trey
have lost their way. To such, Jesus
comes with the light and the hope
of new world that men can reach
by faith in Him-the Kingdom of
God here on earth.

The most noted book of this
philosopher, who served on the Har-
ward faculty from 1882 to 1916, is a
massive two-volume work, THE
World and the Individual" which
seeks to explore the nature of man
and God.
Mr.. Royce at the close of this
work observes:
Despite Gods absolute unity we,
as individuals, preserve and attain
our unique lives and meanings, and
are not lost in the very life that
sustains us, and that needs us as
it's own expression.
Close With Eternal
"Close is cur touch with the eter-
nal. Roundless is the meaning of
our nature. It's mysteries battle our
present science, and escape our
present experience; but they need
not blind our eyes to the central
unity of Being, nor make us feel lost
Ill d 1Cd1Iil WllClC OH GllC WdllSiCl lllSc
of time mean the process whereby
is discovered the homeland of eter-
nifty"
Most of Mr.. Royce's distractions
are in the language of the mathe-
matician and metaphysician, and
nearly as complex as an Einsteln
monograph. But some of his con-
illusions come forth in simple and
fluid prose, as at the conclusion of
his chapter on Individuality and
Freedom:
arise then, freeman, stand forth
in thy world. 1t is Gods world. It
is also thine"
He expounds the identity of God
with man at length. THE temporal
order, taken in its Wilderness, is fol-
us identical with the eternal order
