tGANIZATION AT WORK
TO PREVENT REDUCTION
;ht Being Waged to Prevent thej
Reduction of Cotton Acreage in j
State Savs Chairman
Wannamaker.
In a statement issued recently J.
ottowe Wannmaker, chairman of
i South Carolina Cotton Associan,
declares that he "has been furihed
with quite a number of letters
lich show beyond the shadow of a
ubt that the work for the reducn
of cotton acreage and holding of
tton for the remunerative prices is
ing systematically fought."
The statement by Mr. Wannamar
continues: "Contents of some
these letters would indeed be a
rprise to the general public. For
3 present it has been decided to
Id these letters for further develf
ments.
"I now have in my possession sevil
copies of- letters that were
itten to Governor Allen by ps.rties
>m this State, also copies ol' let's
that have been written to promint
citizens in practically every secn
of the cotton belt. These let's
prove beyond a shadow of doubt
it an absolute, systematic organ ition
is now at work for the purBe.
If possible of injuring the
tnpaign for acreage reduction, and
i holding of cotton for remunerae
prices. Indications are well backand
investigators are securing evince
for the purpose of ascertain?
the power behind this movement,
e are already in possession of
mes of some of the men who are
stematically carrying on this camign.
rtArt+nwfo havma ?V? A 1 /\4
xac wiii/cni'O ux ov/iiic ox tuc icir
rs received,by the association show
it some men who have been living
the blood of the South for many
ars are becoming desperate over
& 'prospective reduction in acreage
d that they are preparing to go
y lengths for the purpose of deiting
this movement."
"The fact that the movement is
ing opposed in this manner is proof
the fact that it is making wonder1
progress".
Mr. Wannamaker, who is also
ssident of the State Bankers' Asriation,
said that he was receiving
ters that indicated that the prosition
of thie organization of the
reign marketing, exporting and fincing
corporation with a capital
>ck of one or two million dollars
11 receive the backing of the bank3,
farmers, merchants and business
in not only in South Carolina but
every section of the belt. Many
the larger cities have already
jdged their quotas, he said.
"Some of the larger i banks are
ging that the banks take their full
ota of the stock of the corporation
that it can be organized without
lay", says Mr. Wannamaker, "and
at they dispose of this stock to the
rmers, merchants, bankers and busess
men, giving the farmers the
eference in the purchase of the
>ck."
