sell jt unless he wants to. These two: •facts .are "being morV pointedly dis cussed at this time than ever before j in connection with the renewed Re- i publican' agitation for cotton price 1 fixing. Senator Hoke Smith of Geo'r- s gia laid particular stress on the see- I , ond point in his necent speech in the 1 Senate completely exploding the Re publican assertion that the south was being shown favoritism'ln the matter I . of cotton., Senator Smith showed i that while the government has au- i thority to take over all the cotton for ' ■ its own use that the demands of the i war necessitate, there is no authority [• either in the War Industries Board or in the Congress tself to compel one ' citizen to sell his cotton to an'other i citizen at a price fixed by the govern- Iment. Senator Smith showed that • the cost of producing cotton is a J great deal higher than it ever was be- Iforc, ranging from 30 to 35 cents in 1 Georgia. He showed that the cost of producing wheat on which the gov ernment fixed a very high price to stimulate production has not increas ed in anything line the ratio of in crease in cotton production. He * showed that while the Republicans have been loudly clamoring for a price on raw cotton they have care fully refrained from saying about a M price on cotton manufactured prod- r ucts.

Wheeler, Una- dilla, Ga. l«-24-3t X _thejt are the men who know the sheer luxury of a cup of hot soup, a piece of bread, a stove to sit by, and a word of cheer. Think of a nation where every able-bodied man of less than fifty has been under arms for four long years and more. Think or a nation which has suffered as has France. Then you will know what the huts are meaning to the French, and what the huts are meaning to our fighters over there. It was requested by the Government of France, officially, that American maintenance of morale be extended to the armies of the French. Cheerfully it was undertaken, in simple justice ’ for our splendid debt of gratitude. ' J And >9 you see these huts today, hundreds of them; where ’ French an£ Americana stand side by side, holding out a hand < of friendship to the war-worn, grinded on whose fighting spirit is an inspjgaban to our Yanks. FcyOr du SoJdat they call tbs hut—bSarth of the soldier—the neatest approach borne up* on the roajl to battle. “The Support and comfort of your .Foyers,” says General Mangin, "Jmub been and will oontinue to be a tremendous phys ical comfotjand moral support, and has given the soldiers that fooling of hbme which has been so -much lacking.” “Your Foyers,” says Clemenceau, “constantly established in increasing numbers/ as great at the front as in the rear, has rendered to bur soldiers most highly appreciated service. Thanks to your efforts, our children have found in. your midst a center of distraction and comfort” United in this war for freedom, our fighters stand beside the soldiers of France. United in this campaign for morale, these seven organizations come to you as one. France’s fight is our fight. Unity of command is winning on the battlefields abroad. Unity is hastening victory through morale. Give for morale, giv« for unity, give for victory 1 The city tax bpoks are now open for 1918 Taxes and will close Doc. 20,1618. N. A.
