COTTON
NEW YORK, Dec. 6.—The better font
acted in the cotton market here toward the
end of last week was in evidence again to
'iiay. Liverpool made a firm showing ana
houses with Liverpool connections seemed to
•tie covering here and first prices were firm
at an advance of 22 to 40 points. There were
reactions of several points after the call
under realizing and hedge selling which had
aceumulated over Sunday, but offerings were
readily taken with January selling up to
16.22 and March to 16.34 during the early
•ession. or 32 to 39 points net higher.
All active positions made new high ground
lor the present movement before noou wita
January selling at 16.5 3and May at 1(1.72
or GO to 63 points above Saturday’s closing.
Covering was stimulated by the closing
■trengtli of Liverpool and absence ofsouth
ern hedge selling, but tiie market met more
realizing around midday ami there were re
actions of 15 or 20 points from the best.
The view that rain amh cold weather in
the belt would restrict the movement of
the crop nnd so damage the remnants still
in the fields to such an extent as to make
them not worth picking put the market to
its highest levels, where it Stodd 59 to 68
points up, with January at 15.95 nnd July
at 16.17. Realizing on the long side set
in and toward 1:30 o’clock prices were
about a dollar a bale off from the best.
There was no increue in southern selling
on the midday reactions, and prices held
steady during the middle of the afternoou
top reports of an improved spot demand, Jan
uary ruling around 16.40 c, or about 50 noints
«et higher.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 6.—Somewhat bet
ter cables than due and a crop estimate of
12,546,000 bales, not including linters, but
including cotton that will not be picked,
gave the cotton market a firm undertone
and a rising tendency on the opening today.
Ih the first half hour of trading prices
were lifted 31 to 40 points, January selling
up to 15.65 and July to 15.88.
The firmness of the market persisted on
the view 'bat the closing session of con
gress would bring constructive legislation.
This opinion caused new buying of impor
tance for long account nnd a considerable
golume of short covering. In the trading
»p to li o'clock prices were sent 40 to
17 points over Saturday’s finals, January
touching 1.>.88c and July 16.08 c.

•NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 6.—Bullish feeling
In high during the greater part of the ses
min in cotton today and prices made sub
pantial gains on buying that, at tunes, was
■neral but late in the day. after « ris « of
i 1 ) to 6b points, longs took profits in bU J fI
.ent volume to cause reactions of about a
'ollar a bule. This selling ut appeared to be
■ne to uncertainty over the gium ugreport
Algood/ Liverpool, the crop estimate of
12,546,000 bales from the Times
rhich did not include linters but did include
•niton in the fields and which may not be
Hiked this season, fear of what the rains
rid cold weather over the belt would do to
■he movement and to the remnants of the
; *<,p in the fields and a somewhat more
•heerful feeling regarding business in geuer
il to say nothing about the belief on the
: -,-g side that this session of congress now
s livening will produce legislation that will
■ ally be constructive, all helped the mar
t-t do better.
The upward movement probably has de
i 'med more punch than most people ej
i •cteii of it and the market can do sti’D
irrter witli the greatest ease if the present
'•Vo id is retained.
At the same time it is wise to remember
■ it the census bureau report on ginning

Predicts Higher Price
For Cotton in 1921
GREENVILLE, S, C„ Dec. 4. —A
report made public today by B. Har
ris, state commissioner of agricul
ture, figured that it cost the farm
ers of South Carolina around $250,-
000,000 to produce the 1920 cotton
crop, and that at the present prices
the income from the crop would be
but $140,000,000. This would mean
a loss of more than $100,000,000, or
enough to run the state government
and all educational institutions in
South Carolina for ten years, Air.
lina for ten years, Air. Harris re-
Harris reported.
He predicted that cotton will
sell in 1921 for higher than 34 3-4
cents per pound, "for the world
needs the small crop of 12,000,000
bales we will make this year, fol
lowing five other small crops,” he
concluded.

COTTON SHOWS
HEAVY INCREASE
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.—Heavy in
crease in the movement of cotton
was reported by the federal reserve
board in its review of business con
ditions for November, although, the
report said, a tendency developed in
North Carolina and South Carolina
toward a crop-holding movement.
Continuation during November of
the period of readjustment, which,
according to the board, was accom
panied by a general refusal of con
sumers throughout the country to
buy, "until prices came down,”
showed no pronounced development
in Virginia, North Carolina and South
Carolina, despite price reductions,
and improved transportation, while
in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, eastern
Tennessee, southern Mississippi and
southern Louisiana, favorable agri
cultural conditions continued, de
spite some shrinkage in yield.
The portion of the board’s review
dealing with the southeastern states
said that larger quantities than usual
of low grades of cotton were report
ed, due to damage of various kinds.
In Tennessee the color was bad and
the quality rather low. Farmers gen
erally were reported dissatisfied with
the price which had manifested itself
in a tendency toward slower market
ing.
Cotton picking had been completed
in Florida and nearly so in Alabama,
South Carolina, Mississippi and Lou
isiana, but in upper Georgia the boll
weevil had increased 50 per cent.
Coal production in Alabama was re
ported as having steadily increased
despite the strike in that field. Plen
ty of coal for home was reported in
Virginia, North Carolina and South
Carolina, although public utilities
were operating on narrow margins.
Further shutdowns and more ex
tensive curtailments of working time.
Cotton mills in New England were
reported operating from 30 to 40 per
cent of capacity. Finishers of cotton
fabrics billed 46,233,000 yards of
white, dyed and printed fabrics dur
ing November compared with 58,670,-
000 yards in September.
In the Richmond district the report
noted decreases in the wholesale dry
good trade, wholesale groceries and
wholesale shoes, while in furniture
lines increases were reported. In the
Atlanta district, a decline was report
ed by the board in all four. lines,
sales of wholesale shoes dropping
36.4 per cent from October, and dry
goods 38.8 per cent.
A number of lumber mills were re
ported closed in the Atlanta district.
The 143 mills belonging to the South
ern Pine association showed output
35.4 per cent below normal the last
week of October, with shipments in
excess of output. In the Mississippi
valley 50 per cent of the mills were
reported closed.
Building activity showed general
declines, the Richmond district re
porting a decrease of 47.6 per cent
compared with a year ago, and the
Atlanta district about 60 per cent
decrease.
I TIME LIMIT NEAR
FOR TAKING STOCK
IN EXPORT BANK
With the time limit for subscrip
tion of the capital stock of the Fed
eral International Banking company
fast approaching, the Georgia cam
paign committee is putting forth re
newed effort to induce banks, bank
ers, exporters, importers and whole
salers to take stock in the enterprise
which is designed to relieve finan
cial conditions in the «outh by fa
cilitating the exportation of cotton
and other s<uthern products to for
eign markets. Unless the minimum
capital of $6,000,000 is fully sub
scribed by December 10, the export
bank will be abandoned.
The organization committee will
meet on the 10th of December. Fri
day next, in New Orleans to canvass
the situation and consolidate the
subscriptions that have been made in
Georgia and the other states of the
cotton belt. The committee’s deter
mination to continue with the organ
ization of the Institution will be de
termined in a measure by the re
sults of this canvass.
The campaign in Georgia, which
was inaugurated at a meeting of the
bankers’ association at Macon, when
over $1,000,000 was pledged, is pro
gressing satisfactorily, and it is con
fidently believed that the $1,500,000
allotted to Georgia as its minimum,
will have been oversubscribed be
fore the expiration of the time limit.
Recent Subscriptions
Most of the Georgia banks will
have the monthly meetings of their
boards of directors within the next
few days, and at each meeting the
proposition of subscribing to the
capital stock of the international
banking company will be considered.
Within the last few days the fol
lowing banks have sent in their
stock subscriptions: National Ex
change bank, Augusta; Peoples’ bank,
Athens; Jefferson County Bank, Wad
ley; Bank of Danielsville; Bank of
Woodstock; First National of New
nan; Butler Savings Banks, But
ler; Bank of Wrightsville; Bank of
Zebulon; Farmers’ Bank of Craw
ford; Bank of Quitman; Bank of
Girard; Elberton County Bank; Fair
mont Bank; Bank of Locust Grove;
Peoples Bank of Ideal; First National
of Thomasville; Merchants’ and
farmers’ ot Culloden.
The campaign committee. in
charge of the solicitation of sub
scriptions in Georgia, yesterday gave
out the following statement made by
J. E. Frizzell, president of the Farm
®rs ’ Banking company of Waverly
Hall, Harris county:
“After considering the provisions
of the Edge act passed last Decem
ber and reading the prospectus of
the Federal International Banking
company of New Orleans, I feel that
the successful formation and opera
tion of this export organization is
bound to exert a tremendous influence
at this time to relieve the emergency
that is faced by the people of our
section.
"The banks' serving the country
districts are peculiarly interested in
this subject for the reason that
whatever benefits will accrue from
the operation of this company as pro
jected will inure primarily to the
communities and the interests that
they serve. The secondary benefits
will also be felt by them along with
interests located in the large centers.
Would Aid Exports
“In facilitating the export of cot
ton which this bank will do, every
cotton producer in Georgia will be
benefited, regardless of whether the
cotton exported was raised in Geor
gia, Texas or South Carolina. The
price of cotton is affected by the
surplus stock in the country as a
whole rather than in a particular
state.
“The association of country banks
of which I am president has shown
its interest in this matter, especially
through the co-operation of our sec
retary,- Mr. L. R. Adams, of Atlanta,
who has given considerable time and
work, and has presented it through
letters to all the bank of our Associa
tion.
“We feel that the successful opera
tion of this banking company would
not only help communities our banks
serve, but would help the banks
themselves. There should be no
question that the offerings and serv
ices of the proposed banking com
pany -will go first to stockholders in
the organization. In becoming stock
holders our banks will not only be in
closer touch with the international
markets but will be lending part of
their capital to a project that has
every promise of giving the largest
possile benefit to their own cus
tomers.”
New Pensioners
Wil! Have Payments
Delayed Until March
It will be the first of March be
fore the state will have money to
pay the Confederate pensioners
made eligible for pensions by the act
of 1919, according to a statement is
sued Friday by Judge John W. Lid
sey, pension commissioner.
This is due, he said, to the fact
that 1920 tax collections are coming
very slowly on account of the low
price of cotton. After conferring
with the governor, comptroller and
state treasurer, he is satisfied that
many taxpayers will take the maxi
mum time allowed by law to pay
their 1920 taxes, which will be until
the first of March, and the new pen
sioners cannot be paid until that
date.
In the meanwhile, all other pen
sioners have been paid their pensions
for 1920. It is only the new pen
sioners, made eligible by the act of
1919, who will have to wait. The
total of their pensions is $450,000.
Judge Lindsey on Friday sent a
letter to county ordinaries, who are.
the local distributors of pension
money, advising him of the above
facts and requesting them to give
widespread publicity thereto.
“It is altogether unnecessary,” he
states in the letter, “to waste time,
stationery and postage in making
and answering inquiries as to when
the payment will be made, for there
will be no delay when the, money is
in the treasury. Their interests are
in the hands of their friends. Urge
everyone, who can do so, to pay
their 1920 taxes, for the payment of
taxes must precede the payment of
pensions.”

TURNING POINT
REACHED, SAYS
RESERVE BOARD
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.—The close
of the business year of 1920 was
described by the federal reserve
board in a statement last night as
the turning point in the transmis
sion from war-produced conditions
to the normal economic basis of in
ternational and industrial life.
The reserve board’s statement,
which reviews the economic and
financial situation confronting the
nation during the year, treats of
present conditions generally in an
optimistic manner; declaring that
the difficulty of transition will not
be much further aggravated. It also
asserts that owing to the nation’s
strong banking structure a normal
situation will be restored with far
less than the usual distress usually
attendant on periods of readjust
men t.
Tiie board declares that previous
periods of marked readjustment have
been acompanied by sharp reduc
tions in prices, heavy decrease in
production, extensive unemployment
and business reaction, often involv
ing bank failures. While neces
sarily uncomfortable, the transition
through which the country now is
passing, the board asserts, has thus
far been attended with only a mini
mum of these unfavorable symp
toms.
The fiscal situation both at home
and abroad, however, is still uncer
tain, the board declares. This is
held to be due to the late date at
wiheh the war was over in the finan
cial sense and to uncertainty as to
the best method of taxation.
In international trade a return to
normal unnidtions is now in prog
ress, the board says. With the ex
ception of agriculture, in which the
output was the largest on record,
production has been decreasing since
the spring of the year, the board
states.. Textiles, shipbuilding and
very recently the iron and steel in
dustries are said to have exhibited
tendencies of this nature.
The board describes the tendency
in the retail trades as downward,
the lessened activity occurring for
the most part considerably later
than the turning point in produc
tion.
The slowing down on the export
trade of the United States during
the year is attributed by the board
in some measure to the exchange
situation, which it asserts, has
steadily deteriorated. American ex
ports seem to be closely conditioned
upon the volume of imports, the
board asserts, and warrant the in
ference that there should be a larger
movement of goods iinto the United
States as a result of the extensive
credits granted foreign countries.
Virginia Town Quiet
After Jail Attack;
Troops En Route
BRISTOL,Va.-Tenn.. Dec. 6. —Last
reports received here from Wise, Va..
Where it was feared a mob from the
vicinity of Norton and Appalachia
would make a second attack on the
jail in an effort to obtain a negro
named Williams, held for the as
sault and robbery of Creed Robinett,
an aged white man, said the town
was quiet. Troops from Lynchburg
and Roanoke were en route to Wise.
A massed attack on the jail ear
ly Sunday morning resulted in the
killing of one member of the attack
ing party, the probable fatal wound
ing of one and the injury of sev
•eral others. Tate Blondell was kill
ed and John R. Lewis received three
bullet wounds when sheriff’s depu
ties in the jail fired on the mob as
the attackers attempted to rush the
door. Sheriff Corder stated that the
guard did not fire until after the at
tackers had poured a fusillade -.- of
sh-ts into the building. None of the
officers was wounded. ■ ■ .:■

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1920.
December 15 Is Last
Day to Pay Fourth
Tax Installment
December 15 is the last clay for the
payment of the fourth installment
of income and excess profit taxes for
1920, according to announcement Sat
urday by A. O. Blalock, collector
of internal revenue for Georgia. To
avoid penalty, the tax must be in
the main office in the Atlanta fed
eral building or in one of the branch
offices through the state by midnight
of December 15, said Collector Bla
lock.
In connection with the payment
of these taxes Collector Blalock is
sued the following statement:
"Inquiries reaching the commis
sioner of internal revenue indicate
a belief that taxpayers have ten
days’ grace on this installment. Such
a provision was contained in the
1917 revenue act, but was removed
by the revenue act of 1918.
“Payment of the, fourth install
ment may be made in cash or by
money order or check. The bureau
of internal revenue urges that when
ever possible payment be made by
check or money order. This method
helps the taxpayer by saving him a
trip to the collector’s office- and
avoids congestion at the cashier’s
window. • Check or money order
should be made payable to “Collector
of Internal Revenue."-
“Bills have been sent to taxpay
ers, but failure to receive a bill does
not relieve the taxpayer of his ob
ligation to pay on time.”

After arriving here the steamer was
attached by creditors, and an effort
was immediately made by her crew
to get out of the jurisdiction of the
district court here, but the boat was
captured after a long and stern
chase by United States Marshal Frefl
Hill in a motorboat and again moored
in Tennessee waters. Frida./ judge

APPENDICITIS
Appendicitis attacks at any moment,
even persons seemingly in good health.
Usually, however, it is preceded by stom
ach trouble or constipation. Many people
have a bowel movement every day, but
it is not a COMPLETE movement and
much old, stale matter stays in the sys-_
tem to ferment and cause trouble. Often
there is only a small passage in tbe een
ter of the bowels while the sides are cov
ered with old, hard matter which sticks
to the bowels and often poisons the sys
tem for months, making you feel tired all
the time and “half-sick.” Even if your
boweil. • nove slightly each day. that is
Dot enough. There must be an occasional
THOROUGH, complete cleansing to bring
out all the accumulated, poisonous waste

Appendicitis is. an intestinal infection
spreading to the appendix, and it can be
guarded against jn the same manner in
which you guard against the spread Os
throat infection (sore throat). When you
have sore throat, you can often prevent
further trouble by using an antiseptic
Wash or gargle to destroy the germs, and
a laxative to carry off the poisons from
the body. Very similar treatment is neces
sary to guard against appendicitis. But in
stead of an antiseptic wash for the throat,
an INTESTINAL antiseptic is necessary
and a COMPLETE drainage of the bowel
system.

the system for months and which noth
ing else can dislodge. It brings out all
gases, thus immediately relieving pres
sure on the heqrt and other vital organs.
It is the great amount of poi
sonous matter ADLER-I-KA draws from
tlie alimentary canal—matter you never
thought was in your system. Try it right
after a natural, movement and notice how
much MORE foul matter is brought out
which was poisoning your system. In
slight disorders, such as occasional consti
pation, sour stomach, gas on tlie stomach
and sick headaches, one spoonful ADLER-
I-KA ALWAYS brings relief. ADLER-I-KA
is a constant surprise to people who have
used only ordinary stomach and bowel med
icines and tlie various oils and waters,
on account of its rapid, pleasant and )
COMPLETE action.
