Hankers, It Is stated, can perform a valuable service by using every re source to force cotton into storage. Haynes McKadden, secretary of the Georgia Bankers' Association, Is send ing out to members a letter written to President L. G. Council of the as sociation, by Mr. Mills B. Lane, of Savannah, who says: "It is out opinion that the planter will he ns great a loser by damaged cotton next spring when he Is ready to sell as he Is damaged by low prices now. I believe it would do more good if the bankers' association could bring <|i about a campaign to make the farm ers protect their cotton tlian anything it has attempted.” Commenting on this President Council says: "I certainly think it would be well for our association to get busy along this line and try to prevail upon the farmers to store their cotton in the warehouses and out of the weather. If our banks will take hold of this it will, In my Judgment, help materially. "I might also say that the farmers, as I see It, should bring their cotton in to. the warehouses If for no other purpose than to turn the receipts over to their creditors. In my section I find many of them are holding back their cotton on their farms, when they have obligations that should be se cured at least with the warehouse re ceipts for this cotton until finally sold.” The Hankers’ Association, which Is making every effort to relieve the sit uation in eotton. will make a cam paign all over the state, urging that the cotton be properly protected.
