“OTITTER” —SAYS WILSON OF FOES PRESIDENT FIGHTING HARD FOR LEAGUE—REVEALS A NEW SELF. PACT OF A WORSE WAR Thousands Acclaim Mr. Wilson In Mid’ die West On Most Important Trip Of His Public Career. Kansas City, Mo.—lt is anew kind of Woodrow Wilson that this middle western country is observing as he proceeds on what he frankly calls the greatest journey of his life. No longer is he simply an eloquent orator or a profound thinker with high ideals. The president has become a real fighter, and in his crusade for the adoption of the peace treaty with the league of nations included, the only pre ventive, he asserts, of an early and more terrible war that the world has ever known, he has been delivering the strongest speeches of his career, putting into them his most powerful words and gestures, and, indeed, throwing into them a personality more virile than even his friends believed he possessed. And this has won more friends for him and the league, even among his political opponents. A Republican crowd of 1,500 in St. Louis Friday rose and cheered for more than a minute when Mr. Wil son designated as "quitters" these ene mies of the league who have been holding up its adoption. A mixed assemblage of more than 12.000 in Indianapolis on the preced ing night roarei approval when the president, referring to these same obstructionists of the league, defied them to “put up or shut up.” The president challenged them to produce something as good or better, If they did not want to accept this plan of preventing future wars. Be fore the St. Louis chambers of com merce, the president, explaining the purposes of the league, described it as a "chart and constitution for anew item for the world” —a system de signed to prevent wars by protecting the weak, who have always been the cause of ars, a system entirely con tradictory to the old political system of the world. It was for the purpose of ending war that America entered the world conflict Mr. Wilson remind ed liis hearer he demanded to know of his opponents how they would keep out of war if they failed to take part in the great pact to protect the weak. He recalled the pledges that all Anier ica made, that we should have a share In this great pact. Then, referring ta those who now opoose the league, he said: “They are absolute, contempti Me quitters if they don’t see the game through.” America will he despised, suspected and distrusted unless she goes forward with her bargain, the [ires dent added in the St. Louis speech. To all of (he objections to the league Mr Wilson offered explanations that satisfied his uudian£§, The much dig cussed article ten did not mean, he said, that Americans would ever have to send troops across the seas to fight other nations’ battles. Indeed, with a leagi; \ there would be no more bat ties, ho explained, at least the pos nihility was very remote. Each nation agrees, first, he ex plained, either to submit differences to arbitration and accept the decision of the arbitrator, or submit the dif ferences to discussion by the council of the league. In this latter case, the nations agree lo allow six months for the discussion. If settlement failed after that time, they agree to wall three months longer before going tc war, aiul no nations after that period of ''cooling off" would fight he asserted In case a nation refused to agree either to arbitration or discussion it outlawed itself, the president explain ed. It would be economically and so I daily boycotted by the rest of the world, and this punishment, he said, would be more terrible than war. As to Japan's holding of Shantung peninsula, the president said he agreed to that only because Kngland and | France, by secret treaty, had given j the territory to Japan, hut he was] sure, he said, that Japan would, as she ha>T promised, return it. Of those league opponents who pose as Ohriua'g friends in this matter, he inquired "How do they expect to get Shan tung back for China if not through the league? Would they go to war for it’ Accusing them of tearing the re sponsibilities of the league, he de •inanded: "If you are China's friends, should you scuttle and run? That's not tho kind of American I am." Again the crowd rose and cheered. >. The president explained America's need for being part of the league be-1 cause of business reasons, but said | they came last in his mind. He said ; in conclusion, at St. Louis: "If there is no league, there will be, in the vengeful providence of God, another. struggle in which not merely a few | hundreds of thousands of Americans! will have to die. but as many millions as may be necessary to accomplish the final freedom of the world." More than 100,000 persons lined the streets of the Missouri metropolis as the president and his party paesed through, and a wave of cheers marked his progress. At the luncheon at which he spoke, he was hailed as the "Benefactor of the World," and again as the “Greatest Citizen of the World." In the evening he spoke to 8.000 at the colliseum. and on the previous night to twice that many in the In dianapolis oolliaeum. to which b drove through five miles of cheering crowds. HU tour thus far is a triumph. WHAT THE AMERICAN COTTON ASSOCIATION PUNS TO DO Atlanta, September 10. —(Special.) With its offices now well established here, in the state senate chamber, state capitol, the Georgia Division of the American Cotton Association is ready to pitch into an active and vig orous campaign, immediately follow ing the big New Orleans fneeting, un der the leadership of Major D. F. Mc- Clatebey, secretary of the senate and former secretary of the Georgia food administration. “Just what is the American Cotton Association?" is a question that is now heard all over the South, usually accompanied by the statement, "I know in a general way, but am anx ious to know all about it.” The man who reads the newspapers couldn't help knowing about the Amer ican Cotton Association; and pretty soon he will be so well posted that he will be informing others about it. Producers Must Organize. Preceded by the Cotton States Ad visory Marketing Board which did splendid work in upholding the price of cotton, The American Cotton As sociation is the outgrowth of a se ries of meetings and conferences by prominent farmers and business men of the South, who have gfvon willingly and unselfishly of their time and mon ey to make it possible for the producer to organize to protect himself —to meet organization with organization. Cotton buyers, cotton shippers, cot ton manufacturers and distributors of cotton goods, all are organized, and through organization they have at tained business success. Likewise to organization the pro ducers of the South must look for re lief from industrial slavery, for bet ter living conditions, for an educa tion for their children instead of work in the field —all and more to come through (hat medium which will in sure them a fair profit on their raw material above the cost of produc tion, to which they are fairly and just ly entitled. Has Done Good Work Already. The American Cotton Association, as stated by President J. Skottowe Wannamaker, himself a prominent cot ton planter of St. Mathews, S. C., hae already, through various agencies, saved to the producer of cotton some thing like ,$500,000,000. But this is Just a beginning. It is proposed to insure an even greater saving through this organi zation of the producers, the bankers and the business and professional men of the South, every one of whom is A Fine Farm for SALE , Near Winder We aave for sale a tine farm of 149 acres five miles out from Winder, on the Public Hi leeway to Jefferson.

THE BARROW TIMES WINDER, GEORGIA. directly interested In the success ol the producer. The American Cotton Association, organized in every state, and with a central office, proposes to bring com merciai freedom to all the South, and to so change rural conditions that the farm will both attract and hold the white man. It will have representatives in ev ery cotton consuming country, to keep the producer accurately posted con cerning supply and demand It will furnish advance information of the world’s cotton needs, so that plant ing may be made to accord with them. Through its publicity department and, as soon as possible, a weekly newspaper free from politics, it will keep both producer and consumer fully informed about cotton, its pro duction, distribution, manufacture and will post them thoroughly as to fair prices both for raw materials and fin ished products. It will omit no in formation necessary to the pwiper pricing of cotton and the extent to which it Bhould be planted. It is the purpose of the association to bring about as soon as possible the establishment of a Domestic Fi nancing Corporation to take care of distress cotton, so that it will not be thrown upon the market in large lots, thereby causing price depression, sion. Will Have Government Aid. In this work it will have the sup port and assistance of the Federal Reserve system of the United States, and the influential aid of practically even’ financier in the South. It will encourage the building of advantageously owned and properly regulated warehouses in every cotton state, and the establishment of a warehouse certificate that will pass as current as a government bond or a gold note. These are but a few of the big plans of the American Cotton Asso ciation as outlined by President Wan namaker and other prominent leaders in the movement. They will be fur ther set out from time to time, and the association will bring, as it has already done in many cases, promi nent men of all parts of the South to its assistance and support. Every cotton producer, every bank er, every merchant, every business and professional man is sought and desired as a member; :*d, through the small dues collected, it is propos ed to meet the expenses of the pro ducers’ own organization which, when it speaks, is going to be heard around the world!
