Neer, of the Atlanta Journal. - J HON. HARVIE JORDAN ISSUES LETTER, TO SOUTHERN COTTON PRODUCERS:—Prompt and definite action on the part of producers and holders of spot cotton all over "the cotton belt is absolutely essential at this time to break the, pres ent powerful «“Bear’’ combinations that are so perfec’tly organized to depress prices. The open season has permitted the farmers to gather and gin fully 80 per cent of the crop by Nov. Ist, and enough cotton has been rushed upon the markets to largely meet all de mands of the speculators. While it is true more of the staple has been held back this year than ever before, the daily receipts at in terior markets and ports are still too heavy to force an advance in prices equivalent to the true value of the staple. The producers areto be congratulated for the firm stand they have already taken to market the crop slowly, and that fact alone has prevented the price from falling to eight cents during the month of October. The crop is about gathered, debts generally are paid and it is no longer absolutely necessary to sell the balance of the crop. The Ginners report recently issued from the U. S. Census Bureau indicated that ;up to October 18th, only 6,400,000 bales of cotton had been ginned. This reportclearly indicates that this crop will not exceed 11,000,000 bales, if it reaches that figure. The spinnérs can wéll afford to pay the producers 12 cents per pound for every bale of American short staple cotton made this season and do a profitable business for the 'stock-holders. The price of yarns has advanced 3 cents per‘pound within the past 60 days and an unprecedented demand for cotton goods exists while stocks generally are lower than they have been for the past twenty years. The duty of the producers is plain and sim ‘plc. They have crowded the markets for the past two months, con= gesting every facility for handling cotton and playing into the hands (of the Bear speculators and spinners. The thing. to do now isto give the markets and shippers a rest during the next 60 days and allow present stocks of spot cotton be gotten out of the way. Let the spinners who are living from hand to mouth run short of cot~ ton and force them into the markets as active buyers. Let the Bear speculators begin to feel the lash of the Bull operators whcn‘, the latter call for the deliveries of spot cotton which the former will be unable to deliver. Let every holder of cotton absolutely stop selling and sit down at home and quietly con template results. Let each holder determine to put no more cotton on the market until prices advance and never sell a bale on a de-| pressed market. ' , Port receipts are already falling off due to the resistance offered by the producers and if united concert of action is secured all along the line the fight will be whipped and Southern farmers will demon strate their ability to become important and dominant factors in fix ing the price at which their staple shall bz seld, ‘ Let county meetings be held all over the belt and strong and active steps be teken to defend this mest valvable Agricultural product from the rapacious greed of the selfish speculator., Let ev ery man who still holds a bale of cotton in his possesion join in these county, or local meetings, and agitate the importance of this ;stcp among his neighbors ‘o the end that success in the near future ;will be assured. We have held our own well so far but we can do ‘much better and easily advance the price from two to three cents by E persistently refusing to sell and lightening up present receipts We fixed our minimum at ten cents for this season and maintained !!lu: price within half a cent of that figure .throngh October, the 'heaviest month, Now let the price be fixed at 12 «cents for the remainder of the crop and the world will accept it at that price which ‘wil] mean an additiona) gain of nearly Fifty Million dollars. | I will be pleased to have reports of all county meetings and from individual farmers throughout the belt endorsing the above position taken and guaranteeing their active co-operation, Stats Vice Presi dents of the Association are urged to push this matter actively in their respective States. Farmers Unions and Agricultural Clubs general ly are earnestly requested to give their valued aid and co-operation to the movement and the Daily and Weekly Press of the South is re spectfully requested to use the power and influence of their columns to disseminate this circular letter and give such other aid as they may feel disposed. A determined stand will bring victory. Very respectfully, HARVIE JORDAN, President Southern Cotton Growers Protective Ass’n. ‘;‘ ‘? b ¢4 ;4‘!:“. | 5 | M ‘ " I Pfi 3_,“ ey L"h' .y B 8 &g Ty ;‘ :{ ¥ '\?i, B - - 1 . SN - .
