ASSOCIATION, foreign Adv. Representatives,
IS THIS A SNUB?—(Macon News)—lt is im
possible for the average citizen to follow all the
intricacies of international diplomacy, but the fact
that Gen. Pershing has decided to return home
from Paris, where he went to place a Congression
al medal of honor on the tomb of the unknown
poilu without going to London to perform a sim
ilar pious rite at the grave of an English soldier
in Westminister Abbey borders o nthe sensational.
The cables tell us that Gen. Pershing and the
State Department have made persistent efforts
to learn fro mthe British government when it
would be convenient for Gen. Pershing to go on
to London and place the medal of honor on the
grave of the unknown British soldier, but thus far
no satisfaction has been given.
The special regiment of American soldiers who
went to Paris to participate in the ceremonies in
that city remained there for a week, expecting at
any moment to be sent to London.
But neither direct nor diplomatic channels have
been able to get any official answer from the Brit
ith government as to when the proposed ceremon
ies might take place, and now we are told that the
special regiment will be sent back to their position
on the Rtine.
It has been hinted that Great Britain has not
moved in this matter because the officers and men
of the British army are borbidden to receive for
eign decorations. But to this the reply is made
that a congressional medal of honor is a distinc
tion in a class by itself. The usual laws and reg
ulations might very well be waived in this case.
General Pershing on his visit to France has been
given continuous ovation. All Paris turned out on
the occassion when he went to place the medal on
the grave of the unknown soldier at the Arc de
Tromphe.
He had expected to go right on to London and
perform a similar function. Ile had to be back
in the United States by November Ist in order to
participate in the reception of Marshal Foch. The
time is now too short for him to go to London, even
if the ceremony should be arranged.
It is perhaps most remarkable international sit
uation _Ythat has developed in a generation, It
looks very much like an affront to the United
States not even to vouchsafe a reply to the many
communications that have been serfft on the sub
ject.
The vast majority of the American people have
no predjudices against Great Britain, but on the
contrary admire her many good qualities. But it
looks as if an explanation were due and overdue.
HOW MANY TREES A DAY DOES THE
PUBLIC READ?>—The paper vou are reading on
was once a tree. - This newspaper is printed on
what is commonly called newsorint and it is made
iom pulpwood. The annual consmption is two
million tons of newsprint a yea®, according to the
American Forestry Association, and that means
- a strip of paper as wide as the regulation news
paper and about forty million mileg long ; half the
distance of the sun, which is ninety-two million
miles away. The annual consumption would make
a two foot ribbon of newspaper around the world
1,600 times Some trees.
More than one-third of our pulpwood comes
from across the Canadian Border, and Canada,
profiting by our mistakes is now taking steps to
forbid the cutting of timber at a rate more rapid
than its growth. That means primarily that our
annual importation of Canadian pulpwood has
practically reached the maximum, and for the oth
" er tworthirds at least we will have to look after
ourselves.
“Paper Week” will be the week beginnig Oc
tober 31, with Thursday, November 3, as the date
of the meetings of the American Association itseli.
The National Paper Trade Associaitno has an
nounced October 31 while the balance of the week
will be devoted to meetings of the affiliated asso
ciation most of which, like that of the National
Paper Trade Association, and the American Pulp
and Paper Association will be held in C hicago.
. Few of us care much about the other fellow's
business, but it so happens this phase of the for
est products is of a piece with a problem that tou
ches our whole economic life, for, without forest
products, business cannot go on. We sight our end
of it to show the tremendous consumption of the
trees going on every day, to say nothing of loss
by fires that sweep the forest areas. The Ameri
can Forestry Association is campaigning for for
est policy legislation. Every publisher should be
behind the campaign.
- BLOOD WILL TELL IN™ AMERlCA—Fifty
six years'ago at Appomattox two great bodies of
men one clad in blue and the other in tattered
.'?iy. decided to stop fighting and live together in
peace thereafter. Few alas, of those men are left
The other day the “boys” of the Grand Army held
their annual reunion at Indianapolis. Shortly the
surviving fighters of the Confederate Army will
meet in Chattanooga.
But it will not be long before these handsful
of glorios blues and superb grays will be compell
ed by circumstances to discontinue their national
gatherings. Well, they all belo . ved, those boys,
to a wonderful age in our history. They made
America. For one thing, their deeds of steadfast
fness and valor in battle gave notice to the whole
E world that this nation, united, could not be trifled
i\\'ith. And the moment it was learned that their
{ arandsons were to join in the worl¢ war, intelli
!yvnt men everywhere—even in Germany—knew
that that conflict was all but over over there.
The heroic blood of the men of 1861-65 courses
through the veins of millions of the 20th Century
| Americans. In the last analysis, both the blue
and the gray fought for democracy, and they who
fear that the descendants of such men will permit
autocrary of any breed—whether aneient Hohen
zollernism or mongrel Lenin-Trotzkyism—to raise
|its head in this land, are faint-hearted Americans
indeed.
CO-OPERATIVE MARKETING, WHAT IS
IT?—You have had many explanations of co-op
erative marketing, but most farmers do not keep
their papers, and they will lose sight of facts that
have been sufficiently explained in former issues.
[ think it would be well to give again the main
fcatures of the cooperative marketing plan.
The plan in short “is to make farmers mastcrsi
of their own industry.” What we do when we sign‘
the cooperative marketing contract is simply to
agree:
1. That we are going to sell our crops in co
operation with our brother farmers for five years—
2. Through the selling agents who will repre
sent our farmers and be responsible to them
3. The selling agents to be selected and con
trolled by directors elected each year by the sign
er-members themselves:
4. That we will not start cooperative selling
until a sufficient number of farmers have signed
to give the marketing organization control of bus
iness enuogh to make it a success.
; : : /|
Or perhaps we should say that through coopcr—‘
ative marketing those of us who produce cotton,
tobacco or peanuts propose to do six things. We
propose to have—
1. Expert, thoroughly-informed selling agents.
2. Sell our crops for us,
3. The selling agents to be elected and control
ed. i
4. Properly graded,
5. Properly financed,
6 In a gradual and orderly manner.
Such a plan needs only to'Heé demonstrated to
prove itself superior to the present system where
by— " i
1. We inexpert, uninformed producers
2. DUMP our crops,
3. In picayunish quantities,
4. Without proper grading,
5. Without proper financing.
6. Our panic: and disorganization often leads
us to feed a falling market, twice as fast as we
feed normal markets—this meaning that we force
prices down just twice as fast as they would oth
erwise have fallen.-~Progressive Farmer.
DR. SOULE'S DEDUCTIONS—Many farmers
in Georgia, especially those in the area most af
fected by the boll weevil, says Dr. A. M. Souf
president of the State College of Agriculture, have
learned that crops, other than cotton, can be grown
for profit. On the more recently invaded areas
adjustment to the boll weevil conditions is far
irom complete. There are many who depend too
‘much on cotton. The small family farm operated
by the owner, or renter, and his family and then
the larger farm operated on the plantation system
and worked on shares, are all trying to solve the
boll weevil problem.
South Georgia especially, says Dr. Soule has
made great progress in the production of food
stuffs. The farmers in certain parts of this region
take great pride in having full smoke-houses and
gardens. These have felt the pinch of hardships
when crop failure or boll weevil depredations have
ensued. This method of supplying the farm with
food and feed should be looked af er everywhere.
Some form of live stock is profitable. At the pre
sent time hogs play an important partin the pros
perity of South Georgia. Peanuts, potatoes, sugar
cane, watermelons, tobacco and truck are valuable
as side lines,
Cotton is still the most important cash crop for
most sections of Georgia. A strip along the coast
in the southeastern part of the state nave to reduce
the cotton acreage considerably more than has
been: suggested because of the extremely humid
climate. Outside of that section, cotton will no
doubt remain as the chief cash crop. :
Before the boll weevil came many farmers pur
chased all supplies, including hay and grain, be
cause cotton was more profitable. Such practice
now involves too much risk. The problem now
facing the farmer is to grow the food and feed
stuffs needed on the farm and at the same time or
ganize the business so that the farm will return
profts. The growing of the maintenance crops
are necessary insurance. The approved system
would be for the farmer to grow what corn is nec
essary to maintain him, as much cotton as he can
handle under boll weevil conditions, and then de
vote the rest of his time to other cash crops.

lGov. Hardwick Pays
. v
Tribute To Georgia
Executive Denounces Vicious Propo
[ ganda On The. State .
|
\VRI(‘.Z!'[‘S\"ILLE, Ga,, October,
H__*The State of Greogia is one of
the richest and faircst domains God
ever gave to man’ declared Govern
or Hardwick in a speech he de.ivered
Ito_ a record-breaking crowd at the
I}()hnson County Fair” It has within
its limits an unsurpassed variety of
‘soil and climate, The agriculture
texp(-rts tell us that there arc twenty
six elemental soils in the United
IStatos: of these twenty-six Georgia
has twenty-three within her borders,
her closet rival in his respect, being
California with ninetven.
The mountains of our state teem
with mineral wealth, as yet largely
undeveloped, Her fields groan with
‘the rich largess of a generous and
‘bounteoaus nature, Evcry year they
whiten a richer fabric than the fabled
flcece that Jason sought, The rich
est and most luscious fruit spring al
most spontaneously from her soil, un
til she is famed far and wide as the
“Peach State” and the “Watermelon |
State”, The boll weevil, in his de
structive march across (Georgia, has
undermined and almost overthrown
King Cotton, but in his stead his
Majecty, the Hog, and her Majesty
he Cow have come into power, and
with our splendid facilities for past
uring and with our balmy climate that
permits our cattle to graze all of the
year round we are now challenging
and wi'l soon destroy the supremacy
of eother zcctions of the republic, less
favored hy nature ~in the cattle-rais
ing business, and in all of its branches, |
“God wass cood to us when he ga\'cl
us Georgia, the land that is flnwin'l
with milk and znd honey”, and <n: 1!
we may :ay, with the prophet ¢ i
“Now are owm linés cast in plea~ant|
places.” I know practically every
foot of Georgia’s soil, and I love its
every inch, from her towering moun
tains that pierce her crystal skies to
her rolling plains that stretch in rich
ness and beauty from river back to
river; from her red old hills, ribbed
with everlasting granite, to her shining
coast line, where the roses never wi
ther and the flowers never cease to\
bloom, Yes I know and love every
inch of her sod, beautified 'by nature
and glerified by history, rich with the
teeming products of an unrivaled soil
and richer still with the lLeroic blood
shed upon it by the fathers who died
that you and I might be free,
- The governor also paid a high trib
‘ute to the people of Georgia, refut
ing imputations of their alleged mis
treatment of negroes, which he term
ed “vicious propoganda” that in no
land, in all history, have two wholly |
separate and distinct races ever lived
side by side, in almost equal numbers
with less trouble and less friction, in
‘more harmonious and peaceful rela
tions, than the white and black races
in Georgia and the other Southern
iStates at the present time'” He al
so asserted that the people of Geor
gia have never denied, or sought to
deny, to any person in the State the
frecedom of religion,
Governor Hardwick, reviewed in de
tail the fiscal affairs of the State. He
showed that when he was inaugurated
governor last June the State treasury |
was actually facing a deficit of ap-§
proximatelp two and one half million
dol'ars, He then showed that in order
to preserve the credit of the state that
provision was made for the discount
of the rental of the Western and At
lantic railroad for a period of five
vears, while at the same time the leg
islature levied a new tax of one cent
per gallon on all gasoline consumed
in this state, which will produce al
most of it not puite double the amount
of the railroad rental, Haviug thus
dealt with the deficit for this year up
to January 1, 1922 the legislature pro
ceeded to make the appropriations and
provide for the revenue for the year
1922 and 1923,
In obedience to the great principle
of sound business we have been com
pelled to fashion our garment accord
ing to the cloth to appropriate what
our revenues would pay, and no more
and if the financial affairs of the State
are to be put and kept on a firm
and stable basis this great principal
must ve religiously adhered to in the
future, and you may rest assured that
so long as T am Governor of Georgia
it will be adhered to”, declared Gov
ernor Hardwick,
Governor Hardwick proposed that
the State abandon the field of property
taxation on the ad valorem basis, leav
ing this to cities and counties and sub
stitute a graduated income tax,

Should “Draft’ Smith
For Mayor of Atlanta
ATLANTA, October 12—The sug
gestion that former U. S, Senator
Hoke Smith should be drafted to
serve as Atlanta’s next mayor, be
cause there is need for a citizen who
is versed in finances and ably equip
ved to discharge public duties, has
been made here by Hon, Walter R,
Prown, a prominent attorn(‘y, in a
“tatement issued today.
Mr, Brown’s statement which voices
the belief that the former senator
would agree to make the race says
in part:
“There is one man to whom every
citizen looks as the most fit person
for our next mayor, His abilities
and resourcefulness in President Grov
er Cleveland’s cabinet, as governor
of Georgia and as United States Sen
ator were signal. .
My indgement impels me to say to
my fellow citizens that they should
draft Senator Hoke Smith as their
next a ayor,
Mr, Brown points out that Atlanta
has a population of 300,000 and is
rapidly approaching that of a half mil
lion, He shows that the city spends
more money than the entire state of
Georgia, and with new taxation prob
lems to:handle the services of a man
of Hoke Smith’s type are greatly in
need, - i
Senator- Smith upon his retircment
from the national senate, established
a law office in Washington where,
according to close friends here he
has built up a large and extensive
legal practice, Major O. H, B, Blood
worth, Jr, his former secretary is
associated with him, and both have
been kept busy for many months in
‘handling large government claims,
‘Senator Smith, shoutd he make the
mayorality race would do so at a
great personal sacrifice it is stated
tby Atlanta‘ friends,
