Trying to Help the Farmer
There won a conference in Atlanta
'Tuesday between U. 8. Senators Smith
ami Harris and Congressmen Overstreet,
^ Crisp, Park, Wright, llpslmw, Lankford,
Wise, Lee, Brand, Boll, Vlijson mid Lar
sen, the objoct being to put tlio cotton
situation Ht|imrely up to tlio Federal Ro-
jktvo Bonrd and to President Wilson. As
a result of tlio eanforeneO' telogriinis Hvoro
framed and disputcliod us follows—
To Gov. Hording, of Federal 'Reserve
Board,
“Permit us to bring to your attention
4 ruling of your bourd fttlvorsu to the
•discount by Federal Reserve Bnnlfs of
notes given by cotton factors. Wo lire
lidviseil tint quite ii Inrgo portion of
tlie cotton erop iH bundled by cotton
flitters and that u Huceessful continua
tion of their business Is essontlnl to the
Onlorly movement of the crop.
“Cotton factors give their notes for
money borrowed, which is lonued by thorn
to option furmors partly to mnko tlioti'
crops, but hugely to harvest and pro-
pate cotton for market. Tlio cotton flic-
tot's do hUBlnoHS in largo cotton markets
mul ' receive there the cotton and jiut it
in simpo for intelligent, orderly mnrkot-
iug. They tnko wnrohouso roeoipts for
tlio cotton stored in warehouses and use
these warehouse receipts ob security for
their notes on which to borrow tho money
UHCil as boforo stated.
“We insist’tlmt-tlio
• ronoy Act provides for tho d 1
such notes. First, beuauso they nro
drawn for agricultural ami commercial
purposes. Second, because tlio proceeds
nro usod for agricultural purpoBos. Third,
bocmiso the notes nro secured by staple
agricultural products and tho advances
are ,not merely investments. Wo believe
flip. PflUfttl tinfna
rl Wo earnestly request your assist
ance in obtaining financial rollof for- pro
ducts of cotton so ns to provont the
dumping of tho twelve months' supply
of cotton on tho market at prices below
tlio cost of production. In our opin
ion, tho emergency enn host be met ny
reviving tho War Finance Corporation,
nnd wo urgo that this be done without
delay, ns it will provide now foreign
mnrkets and help relievo a most dis
tressing situation.' ’
PROSPERITY UNDER THE DEMO-
CRATIC ADMINISTRATION.
Showing prosperity under the Demo
cratic administration, Cileries J. Hllden,
finnneo clmlrinnn of the National Demo
cratic Committee for Georgia, says: "In
August, 1D12, tlio Inst tax digest pnor
to tlio election of President Wilson, the
total taxable value of the property of
Georgia was *82,358,842.00. The tax di
gest which has just boon dosed for 1020,
lifter sovon yours of Wilson, shows floor-
gift's taxable valuation to be $l,!i45,870g*
520.00, This is a not gain of about 65
per cent, in tho aggregate enhancement
of the wealth of this State -In seven
yours, or nbout *200,000 a day increase:
The KovoroBt, test of prosperity, and the
most dependable yardstick by which to
measure it, is tlio tax record. Georgia
gained in wealth iti sovon yonrs about
nh uimili ns its total loss of slave property
by the Civil War amounted to .
“At tho eloso of tlio Taft Administra
tion tlicro weef ■ 2,000,000 tons merchant

American llag. At tho closing of tho
Wilson Administration wc have IJ,700j-

“The nverngo linlnnco of trade ill

istration wnH bnroly *300,000,000 annu
ally. Since tlio aritilstlco the-.balance of
trade in fnvor of America has averaged
about $1,500,000,000. Iti is this balance
of trmio that litis made th;o Democratic
dollar tlio ono universal ilcpon'dablO 100

llrst Monday In March, 1921, then and

ceed thereon as to Justice may apper
tain.
Witness tho Honorable J, R. Terrell,,
Judge of said Court, tliia tho ,7th. day
of Ootobor, 1920. L, TURNER,’
W. L STALLINGS, Clerk.
Plaintiff's Attornoy. •
the cotton factors' notes embrace tlio
rquirenicnta of each of thoso three pro
visions. If they fall within oithor of
tho (three, tlio Act authorises thoir dis-
-count.
j, * 'The Act docs not limit discounting
V) notes givcu by farmers for tho monoy.
If $0 qionoy went for agricultural pur-
pesos the notes can bo discounted, no
-■matter who gives, them. Tlio character
of uso or Hw money, not tlio occupation
•of dho person, gives tho right of discountf
hold thnt advances by cotton factors
nr. investments and thovoforo not sub
ject to discount is to stride from tlio Act
Hie word ‘moroly, 1 for tlio objootiou only
applies where the transaction is merely
,*ii hivestmout.
* L, In the (Mine of tho factors tho ad-
van ecu nro not iiivostiuoiits, but nro
part of tho bustiioiis of gathering to
gather tho cotton mid acting ns -igo.its
for'the fanners to sell tho same. The
.advances made by the cotton factors are
parts of the most important commercial
handling of cotton. The highest courts
of the land do -not hesitate to reverse
erroneous dclsiou*. Tb© foots must
now bo more clearly before your board
than they were whou tho decision was
•node. -We urgo a modification of tho
ruling iyou -have made with reference to
t he ■ lliMiount by Federal Reserve Banks
-af-vitltun factors’ notes and that the dis-
YonnYnig of such notes be authorised. ”
To President Wilson.
’ In reply to message of Gov. Alton, of
Kaunas, you aro quoted in tho press as
colling for evidence of unfair practices
as to marketing of wheat- crop, with n
view to having tho Government investl-
-gate same. Following this manifesta
tion of sympathy on your part, the price
of wheat rose about 17 cents per bushel.
“Tho press carried news that the Gov
ernment called a conforenco of private
bankers with a view to financing the
Cuban sugar crop, to an re tho Cubans
from financial disaster. Our people fool
that they are entitled to some aid from
the} Government ill connection with the
cotton price, whicli lias declined from 43
cents to IB cents por pound, which is s
greater decrease than any other agri
cultural or manufactured product. Ono
of tho strongest reasons used for the
enactment of the Federal Reserve Act
was thnt it would moot just this kind
, of an emergency.

Common Sense Suggests
The road by your farm or home—
The school to which your children go—
Would never have been built, if before building the
road and' school you had been forced to dbnvince , a
private corporation that its stockholders would get (i
fat dividend on watered stock by the building.
People must have roads and schools, and so you build
them.
Over 104,000 farms in Georgia, are Without electric
light and power. . •
Moreover, 3,343 and more towns and villages liaye: no
electricity. . •
Yet in our streams are 2,152,850 horse-.power of un
developed water power, equivalent to 1 21,528,600 tons
of coal, the labor of 25,834,200 men, unused and thrown
away every year. • ' .
Light and power are as necessary as schools and roads.
But the majority of these farms, .villages and towns
can hope to get no light and. power. The Constitution
forbids the State to supply them. They’must get cur
rent from the corporations. But to install the ms-,
ohlnery and run the wires necessary to serve a few
farms or a handful of people in a, village would not
pay a profit on fictitious values. Therefore, no corpora
tion will furnish them current.
'
But the State, if the Constitution permitted, could
develop our waterpowers and supply thq service at cost.
You build your, own roads and schools arid tax your
self to pay for them, ,
, s
If your Constitution allowed, your State could de
velop your waterpowers and bring, electric light, and
power to the farms, villages and towns of Georgia,’.and
pay the cost from the earnings of’ the plant without
imposing one dollar of tax. , 1 , f ; ’
But the Constitution bars the way. : »
