CONDITIONAL ELIMINATION.
^^ Bill To Cut Out Cotton In South Carolina
If Six Othor State* Follow.
Representative McQueen of Marlboro,
has a bill providing for the total elimination
of next year's cotton crop in
South Carolina, conditioned on tht
adoption of similar measures by the
states of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi,
Alabama, Georgia and North Carolina.
The text of the bill, which is to be infl
troduced today, is as follows:
"Whereas, approximately 60 per cent
of the population of the entire world
are now engaged in war, thereby causing
the manufacture and consumption
of cotton to be abandoned to such an
_ extent that the supply of cotton on
" hand is practically sufficient for the
demand for the next two years and
consequently the price has suddenly
fallen below the cost of production and
paralyzes agriculture, commerce and
industries of this state and the other
states heretofore depending upon cotton
as their staple money crop, and the
state is now threatened with complete
financial ruin, and
"Whereas, Texas. Louisiana, Missis
Vsippl, and Alabama are now lnresiea
with the cotton boll weevil?a dreadful
pest that destroys the product of the
farmers' labor and has steadily spread
eastward and threatens the immediate
Invasion of Georgia, South Carolina
and North Carolina, and the only method
of effective defense against said
| weevil is to eradicate it by entirely
eliminating for one year the cotton
crop of the south; and
"Whereas, the complete elimination
of cotton from the said cotton-growing
states for one year is not only necessary
as the only method of destroying
this insect and making cotton growing
again possible without the waste of its
ravages, but is likewise necessary as
the only method of promptly restoring
^ the prospective balance of cotton production
and consumption, so as to remove
the present unnatural glut of the
market and impart proper money value
to the cotton crop now on hand in this
state and said other cotton-growing
states, and thus to rescue the state and
% the south from financial ruin; and
"Whereas, the effectiveness of this
plan depends upon the co-operation of
the other states named; now therefore,
in the exercise of the police power of
this state and in order to promote the
general welfare of all the people and
to preserve the entire financial interests
of the state,
^ "Be it enacted by the general assembly
of the state of South Carolina:
"Section 1. That it is hereby declared
against the public policy of this
state and unlawful for any person or
corporation to plant, cultivate or raise
any cotton within this state during the
year 1915, whether in his own right or
4 as agent for another or in any other relation,
and any person planting, cultivating
or raising cotton within said
state during said year 1915 or aiding or
abetting in said planting, cultivating or
raising of cotton shall be guilty of misdemeanor
and upon conviction shall be ,
punished by fine of $100 or imprisonment
in the county jail for 30 days, and 1
any act of planting, cultivating or rais- (
ing cotton thereafter shall be a new offense,
subject to the same punishment, ,
and it shall be the duty of the sheriff,
constables and policemen to destroy
any and all cotton growing in this
state during said year 1915 as a com
mon nuisance.
"Sec. 2. That this act shall become
operative in this state only upon the
enactment of an act of like purpose
and effect by each of the following
named cotton-growing states, to wit:
Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Ala#
bama, Georgia and North Carolina.
"Sec. 3. That the enactment by said
states shall be evidenced by the filing
of certified copies of their said acts
with tho ooordtnrv of staff for this
state, and upon the tiling of such acts
on behalf of all of the said states, the
governor of South Carolina shall by
proclamation announce the same and
put into operation in this state the
^ foregoing act forthwith.
"Sec. 4. That it is not the purpose
of this act to interfere with or in any
manner affect any other act that may
be passed at this session of the general
assembly requiring reduction in the
acreage of cotton hereafter planted in
_ this state, unless the other states
7 named herein above shall take the action
herein contemplated, but in case of
such co-operation by said states then
and in that event this act shall supersede
the act or acts for limitation or
reduction of acreage to be planted in
cotton in the year 1915, and this act
shall be of force for the year 1915 and
no longer."

SOUTHERNERS WANT HELP
Determined to Make One More Effort
Before Adjournment.
Senators and representatives from
cotton growing states, determined,
yesterday, to make one more supreme
effort to get legislative relief from
congress before adjournment for the
threatening conditions facing the
cotton growers because of the European
war.
Democratic senators from southern
states blocked an agreement to
vote on the war tax bill, Thursday,
when they determined to attempt to
adopt an amendment to the measure
calculated to aid the cotton growers.
The amendment probably will be
submitted toaay ana win anoru an
opportunity for a vote on the issue.
Southern senators, it was learned yesterday,
do not propose to filibuster
on the revenue bill but they do want
an opportunity to vote on the proposal
for relief of their constituents,
whether it should carry or not.
Last night, southern senators met
at the home of Senator Hoke Smith
of Georgia. Among proposals discussed
were the following:
Curtailment of appropriations for
the coming fiscal year to the amount
of $100,000,000, and utilization of
this amount to help carry the cotton
crop and to make advances upon
cotton.
Sale of undisposed Panama canal
bonds to be utilized for the same purpose.
Issue of $225,000,000 of three-year
four per cent government bonds, in
denominations of $10 and up for the
purchase of 5.000,000 bales of cotton
to be held by the government until
January 1, 1916.
The bond issue proposal, it was
suggested, should be accompanied by
an excise tax on cotton producers of
$10 a bale on all cotton produced
next year in excess of five bales a
plow.
in the house on vesterday. Repre
sentative Henry of Texas, served notice
that he proposed to try to force
a vote today on the project of southern
members for an issue of $250,000,000
in currency based on cotton
and tobacco warehouse receipts. He
introduced a resolution for a drastic
rule to give the plan right of way
and also sent a reply to the letter of
Secretary McAdoo to him against the
proposed legislation. Mr. Henry insisted
that the secretary had the
right to deposit public monies in
southern national banks, "in any
manner you deem 'equitable' to the
extent of the funds in your hands or
that may be supplied you by congressional
action."
Representative Hardwick of Georgia.
who talked with the president,
introduced a bill proposing the issue
and sale of all of the Panama canal
bonds heretofore authorized, at 4 per
cent interest instead of 2 per cent interest
and for the deposit of the
proceeds in national banking associations
and state banks in the cotton
and tobacco belts.
Mr. Henry's reply to Secretary McAdoo.
which he ineffectually sought
to have the house print in the Congressional
Record, says there is no
chance for the government to lose a
penny on cotton and tobacco. "You
should join us and help to get legislation
to sell the Panama canal bonds
and issue United States notes," he
wrote. "Restrain the banks, hold
them in leash and prevent their further
inflation of the currency which
is not reaching the farmers this
year."
M r. Henry's rule, which he wants
the rules committee, of which he is
chairman, to report favorably, is an
omnibus proposal for immediate consideration
of the cotton currency bill,
the senate bill to license cotton warehouses.
a senate bill to amend the
national banking laws and house
bills to amena me reuerui irsn .r
laws, each bill to have one hour general
debate. 30 minutes for amendment
and then vote.

IT CAN BE A SUCCESS OR A FAILURE;
WHICH WILL IT BE WITH
YOU? ? ? ??????
Look at the men who are successful
in the eyes of the world. Ninety-nine
out of every hundred started a Bank
Account when they were young?and
stuck to it.
And now, look at the failures. Very
few of them have a Bank account now.
Not speaking of when they were young.
Perhaps you think you have not
enough money to start an account.
Haven't you a dollar? That's all it takes
at THIS BANK.
Just try it for a year or six months.
If you do not wish to continue it you
have lost nothing by the trial.
Which Will It Be?Success or Failure?
IT'S UP TO YOU.
