THE ATLATsTX SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, 3A., TUESDAY, AUGUST 5, 1913. 3 BIG COTTON EXHIBIT F0I1II ims plan is IS HELP UNCLE SAM IS WORRIED ill Be Largest Permanent Exhibit of Its Kind in the World Plan* have been put jnder way by the Atlanta chamber of commerce and the Merchants and Manufacturers’ Ex position association to establish here the most complete permanent exhibition of cotton and cotton products In the world It is proposed that the exhibit shall .take up a whole floor of the new chamber of commerce building and that it shall be so complete and so In teresting as to compel the attention of all visitors to Atlanta. Exhibitions of this kind have been established temporarily at some of the big world’s fairs, but there is no com plete permanent one in any city of this country. The plan was put under way yesterday morning at a meeting of the cotton products committee of the Mer chants and Manufacturers’ Exposition association held in the chamber of com merce hall and attended by M R. Wil kinson W M. Hutch nson. W. H. Schroder and H. E. Watkins, who repre sented F. P. McBurney Present also j at the mee'ing were P D. McCarley, vice president of the Coton Seed Crush- j ers’ association of Georgia; A. A. Fry- j erson.' secretary, and E. P. Chi vers, chairman of the publicity bureau of the samp association. W. J. White and W\ H. Pinson were also present. As the proco*al to devote the whole jf one floor will necessitate some slight changes in the plan for remodeling the chamber of commerce building it is de sired to push all arrangements to an early conclusion Wh n established along the lines suggested, this exhibit from a commercial and educational standpoint will be one of the most in teresting things In the south. It will begin by showing growing cot- ! ton plants, and soil, fertilizer and oth- j er things that enter into the planting and growth of cotton will be illustrated and explained. Then each product and by-product of cotton will be taaen up and shown through all Its stages. The co. on lint will be shown as it goes through various changes in a big cotton mill and the prices® s explained. Over fifty different kinds of cotton cloth and cotton products will be shown. The cotton seed will be taken up sep- j ar* ely the same as the lint and all of Its different products will be illus trated. including hulls, meal, crude oil, fine oil. cooking preparations, soaps, etc. Any man, W' man or child who spends an hour or two in this exhibit will come out learning more practically about what cotton means than they could • learn from a year’s s*udy. of books. It is the idea to make the exhibit the object of special interest to all visi tors and to throw it open to all con ventions which come to the city. It is hoped to have the exhibit ready to be opened soon after the chamber of com merce moves into its new quarters on January l.

Rumania, Aug 4.— Bulgaria's counter proposal presented at the Balkan peace conference here today is regarded as constituting her maximum demands, and. consequently, their abatement to some extent is con sidered certain. Peace will be signed, according to the opinion expressed in diplomatic cir cles, on the basis that points, on which an agreement cannot be reached, shall be reserved for decision by the great powers. The Bulgarian proposals stipulate that the frontier line should give Bul garia possession of the towns of Kot- chana, Istip, Strumitza, Seres and Ka- vala. Bulgaria declined to recognize the allies’ claim for an indemnity or to enter into any negotiations concerning that subject. BUMPER CROP EXPECTED AROUND BARNESVILLE ►(Special- Dispatch to The Journal.) BARNESVILLE. Ga., Aug.-4.—Not in years have the crops of cotton and corn In this Immediate section been so promising at this season as for this year.

WASHINGTON, Aug 4.—The plan of the Wilson administration to avert a contraction of the currency in New York and to facilitate the movement of the crops in tne south and west, as an nounced last night by Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, has met with instant approval among senators and congress men from the sections of the country *.o be affected. They regard it as an evidence of Pres ident Wilson’s determination to combat with all of the* resources at his com mand any attempt on part of New York bankers to contract the money market at a time when the farmers of the country most need it. They believe that tne plan outlined by Mr. McAdoo Will result in easy money in both the south and the west, and they feel that the farmers themselves will reap the greatest and most direct benefits, though it is equally certain that the banks in southern and western cities will share in the general good. ATLANTA BANKS ON LIST. John Skelton Williams, first assist ant secretary of the treasury, speaking for the department this morning. told The Journal that tile $50,000,000 which It is intended to transfer to souintrn and western banks will be apportioned among the agricultural states on a ba sis of crop valuation, population and sur plus and deposits of the national banks. ..e added that banss of Atlanta and Sa vannah would be chosen by the treas- uiy as distributig points for the big government deposits “While there are a number oi other excellent cities in Georgia, it will be impossible for the treasury department to deal with over two cities in the dis tribution of this fund,’’ said Mr. Wil liams. “It is my idea that Atlanta and Savannah will be selected as the Georgia cities. The banks in those cities have correspondents throughout the state and have adequate fac.lilies for handling the situation and taking care of the smaller oanks in the country.” CONFIDENT OF BANKS’ CO-OPERA TION. When asked if he believed the banks in Georgia and elsewhere in the south would avail themselves of the offer of the treasury department. Assistant Sec retary Williams waxed most enthusi astic. tie said. "I rtgard Secretary McAdoo’s propo sition as the greatest tning for the lax mers of the south that has been at tempted by the iederal government in hali a century I am entirely confi dent that the southern bankers will take ad\aniage of the offer, and that tne movement of cotton in the southern states will be greatly facilitated.” Mr. Williams declared that, In his judgment, the southern bankers who avail themselves of the ofter will use commercial paper and not 2 per cent government bonus, as a basis of their loans from the government. He declar ed that usually at this period or the year :he banks in the south have lots of high class commercial paper and that the treasury department would ac cept this as collateral and not require the banks to go into the markets to buy 2 per cent government bonds. SOUTHERN COMMERCIAL PAPER. “The southern banks have good com mercial paper and it will be unnecessary for them to buy bonds in order to ob tain the money the treasury intends to transfer as a means of moving the crops,’’ said he. Assistant Secretary Williams regret ted the publication this morning of a statement to the effect that the treas ury department was acting under the provisions of Aldrich-Vreel and emer gency currency act. He stated that such was not the case, and that the depart ment proposed simply to transfer some of the money in its vaults to the banker^ of the south and west.* HOKE SMITH’S VIEWS. Senator Koke Smitnh commended th* McAdoo statement highly and declared that the farmers of the south would benefit greatly as a result of the policy of the administration. “I regard the statement of Secretary McAdoo concerning the transfer of money to southern and western banka as indicative of a policy on the part of President Wilson to use the re sources at his command to block efforts of New York banks to contract the money market,” said Senator Smith. “It is the first time in half a century ot more that a president of the Unitea States has had the courage to take su decided a stand in the interest of all the people as against the bankers. The plan is one of the most reassuring and confidence inspiring moves that the ad ministration has made, and I feel con fident that the cotton farmers of the south will be among the first to appre ciate it. It means that money will be easy In the south this fall, and that the cotton crop will be moved with ex pedition.” ADAMSON AND HARDWICK. Congerssmen Adamson and Hard wick declared that they had read Mr. McAdoo’s statement with great pleas ure. and felt that it was a wise move in the right direction. “I favor any move by the administra tion that will make it easier for out farmers to market and move their crops.’’ said Mr. Adamson. “I believe the plan of the treasury department will accomplish this.” ”1 am in hearty sympathy with , tne ans of the administration to help the armers of the country,” said Mr. Hard- ick. - “Mr. McAdoo’s statement is a holesome and significant indication of ;e attitude of the administration. Its peration means much to the farmers Georgia and other southern states, nd It should be commended.” (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.—The sudden and unexpected appearance in Vene zuela of General Clrprlano Castro to take personal command of the revolu tionary forces, confronts the state de partment with a grave problem. Secertary Bryan declined today to say what would be trie attitude of the United States toward the presence of the unwelcome exile in the land from which he was banished five years ago. The Taft administration not only approved of Castro's exile from Vene zuela but sought by every means, al though without success, to prevent him from landing in this country last win ter. Officials realize that Castro’s present personal direction of the insurrection will make the movement far more for midable. The cruiser Des Moines will leave Brunswick, Ga., Monday for Laguaira, expecting to reach that port Friday. Henry F. Tennant, of the state depart ment. who Is going to Caracas to take charge of the legation pending the ap pointment of a new minister, will leave Washington tonight and will proceed to Venezuela on the Des Moines. Government Troops Mobilized To Move Against Castro (By Assoc.a.o«. Press.) CARACAS, Venezuela. Aug. 4.—Mobil ization of the Venezuelan troops In Ca racas was completed today.

Fi HU TRIES TO KILL EIGHT WITH AXE Negro Attacks Family at night as They Are Asleep 'Snedal Dispatch to The Journal.) CAIRO, Ga..

Declares England's Only Rea son for Not Entering Is Lo cation of San Francisco (By Associated Press.) LONDON, Aug. 4.—An apparently in spired statement in regard to the Brit ish government’s non-participation in the Panama-Pacific exposition In San Francisco appears today in the West minster Gazette, drawn forth by the caustic comment cabled from America. It earnestly avers that Great Britain’s refusal to participate has no diplomatic significance and is based purely on com mercial grounds. The newspaper says; “We do not mix up our diplomatic negotiations and our business in the way suggested. • * * Americans may be easy in their minds that our refusal on this occasion has no other reasons behind it than those of expense and the impossibility of getting together a wor thy collection at a place so distant as San Francisco. We hope and expect that any diplomatic differences we have with the American government about the Panama canal wll! be settled long before 1915, when the exposition is to be held.” The Pall Mall Gazette says there was no occasion for an “explosion of tem per” by Americans after the explanation given by the British board of trade yes terday. and continues: “We must confess we learned of the reluctance of our traders with some re gret. At first sight it betokens lack of Imagination and enterprise.” The newspaper suggests that the ex hibition might give British traders a chance to make up leeway on the Ger man “drummers” who are already busy on the coast. American Bacteria Are Entirely Too Vigorous For Ultra Violet Rays WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.—Although the ultra violet rays may sterilize water in Europe, the vigorous bacteria in Ameri can milk will not succumb to their in fluences. This discovery has Just been made by chemists of the department of agriculture, following a series of experi ments. The scientists found that while the rays were efficacious in disposing of much of the bacteria, many of the path- egenic, or disease-producing, germs sur- vi\ e. The department chemists found it was impossible to sterilize cpmpletely even dirty milk bottles with the rays. Fur ther inquiry as to the means adopted by the European scientists In the use of the rays probably will be made. AMBASSADOR WILSON’S POCKETS ARE PICKED (By Asstc.&ted P*ess.)

APPEAL OF ANDERSON. In speaking to the senate on the ap propriations bill Senator Anderson said in part as follows: "The chair desires to ask the chair man of the Appropriation committee to have another meeting of his committee during the day. The condition which confronts us today is of such a serious nature that those who form a part ot the administration charged with c< nduct- >ng the affairs of this state find it nec essary to call the attention of the sen ate to the gravity and seriousness of the situation The governor of the state, the president of the senate, the chairman of the finance and the chair man of the appropriation committee of the senate, the speaker of the house, the chairman of the ways and means committee of the house and the chairman of the appropriation committee of the house are those who form the state administration. • which Is charged with the duty of handling the state’s busi ness. "'The house has sent to the senate an appropriation bill carrying $280,000 in excess of the anticipated revenues of the state, based upon the expectation of preesnt values being maintained. “In the year 1910 there was a balance in the state treasury of $81,965.
