10 TAKE UP SURPLUS
Special to The Ucorgian.
Montgomery, Ala., Sept. 26.—The
Alabama Cotton Association, through
many of It* member*, yesterday sub
scribed $10,180 toward the plan to
finance a $10,000,000 corporation to take
charge of the surplus and weak cotton.
This Is only the beginning and the sub
scription was pledged In less than half
an hour.
President Harvte Jordan was to have
been present, but was detained at
home. E. D. Smith, president of the
South Carolina association and gen
eral organiser of the Southern associa
tion, and Congressman J. T. Heflin
made speec hes. It was one of the most
enthusiastic meetings ever held by the
association.
Mr. Smith said that India could not
compete with the South In raising cot-
ton. He said there was only one place
where the fine staple of the South could
be raised, and that was In a small place
In Africa, but by the time that was
made a producing country the cotton
question will have been settled.
i'ongr*9»m*n J. T. Heflin stated that
he had presented a bill in congress
to appropriate $60,000 to have agents
In China to put the Amerlcun cotton
on the market there. He said he did
not get the $50,000. hut did get $20,000,
nnd only a few days ago received a
letter from Secretary Wilson, of the
agricultural department, stating that
these agents had been employed. He
said he woh going to Introduce another
bill In congress asking for the appro
priation of $50,000 more.
Congressman Heflin said he had in
troduced a bill In congress to do away
with the bucket shops and to make It
punishable by a fine of $10,000 and im-
