rW!LL OPEN FIGHT * IN ATLANTA SOON. * t President of American Cotton Asso- t ciation Not Pleased With Plans I of Opposition. jt Is J. Skottowe Wannamaker, presi- 1 dent of the American Cotton Associ- < ation, last night issued a call for a 1 - A'f nf 1 meeting ox me uumu *.?l UilVVVVAw the American Cotton Association to (^ be held in Atlanta at the Chamber of' Commerce on July 23 and 24. The i first session will be held at 10 o'lock J on the morning of the 23rd. ( It is not improbable that at this j meeting a fight will be launched on ! certain features of the proposed i World Cotton Conference to be held t in New Orleans in October. The } statement of Mr. Wannamaker that < " ' ^ _ * .i very vigorous ngnt wm ue muuc wlt ^ the proposition to organize a World \ Ccttoit Association to include farm- ( ers, merchants, bankers and also ( spinners, bot.h New England and foreign spinners. It is generally urder- j stood in cotton circles that the effo.it < to form this organization is to oe i made at the World Cotton Confer- ? ence. t In announcing the call for the cli- 1 - *- . \ flnnto Jifiyf ( rectors meeting m week, Mr. Wannamaker said last 1 night: < ' This meeting is called for the . j purpose of completing the plan for J the permanent organization of the American Cotton Association. In | addition to this, the board will con- .1 i ( sider the plans of the opposition, which are being put into effect ( throughout the belt. This opposition 1 comes from people outside of the 1 South; is backed by powerful money : 1 interests. , * 2 tv.-o Annncurr force has a plan for X XAXO v/y^/ ^ _ an organization cf a World Cotton j k Association, to include farmers, merI chants, bankers and also spinners, f * both New England and foreign tfoin-, ners. They state that this association j would be along the line of a profit^ sharing organization and that it will ^ prove very beneficial both to the pro- 1 ducer and the manufacturer. "The American Cotton Association ' can not see it in this light. The ac-1 ( tion of this opposition has caused us ^ to sit up and take notice. Grt t publicity bureaus are being employed, for the purpose of pushing forward the plans of the opposition. The New j England and foreign spinners are al- ^ ready thoroughly organized, ana tney have always opposed the best interests of the producer and fought down * the price of cotton regardless of how low it was. Their movement today, it is thought, is due to the fact that the American Cotton Association has brought about wonderful changes for the better throughout the entire South. They realize that cotton will never again under their administration be sold below the cost of proeduction. The spinner also realizes ?-i?j. of the Ameri in*tv me uigumuuv.... can Cotton Association means that J there will really be profit-sharing, , and that the producer will get a price . for his cotton above the cost of pro- ^ duction. j "A plan is being advocated by ^ those opposed to the organization of the American Cotton Association to j offer a price this fall for next year's crop that will induce the planting of an enormous acreage in cotton so as . to reestablish the depleted surpluses " ?q<3 to have a club ox raw cutvuii^ ..? _ with which to beat down prices, force distressed cotton upon the market J * and buy at starvation prices. (3 "The hands of the bear manipula-' tors and the New England and foreign spinners can plainly be seen, s The men behind the American Cotton i i Association, who have made tremendous sacrifices to form same, wo1''o flint, the great success ac- ] v??v> V 0_ _ complished has crystalized this bitter i tight against them. They realize ] further that any association, includ- j ing farmers, merchants, bankers, ] . New England and foreign spinners j and bear manipulators would mean < the obliteration of the American Cot- ] ton Association, the destruction of all ; " - J"0y,fonros orained. would ; U i. UiC auvaiivu^vu 7 prove a calamity to the entire South, i k would bind again the shackles of corn- mercial freedom to the producer. A battle royal is on. No quarter will , be asked or given. We can organize < and manage our own affairs without S outside interference. The New luig- ' land and foreign spinners and bear ; manipulators have been organized for the last hundred years. Why should they attempt today to interfere with organization of the pro- < ducers of cotton, the farmers, the , merchants, and the bankers of the South. The people of the South have v ? xl? Tvnnnf human snown Dy uic inguvuv r nature can give that wherever the j path of duty and honor may lead, however steep and rugged it may be, they are ready to walk in it. They do not need outside assistance and will not tolerate outside interference. They have won the race and will not be cheated out of the prize. The fact Q+atP-owned and State-controll ? l:iav ? ed warehouses, a price for cotton' above the cost of production, an ar "angement whereby the bear mamip-.l llator can not force distressed cotton j1 ;o be sold at starvation prices, and i ;he many other important changes: iow on foot that will prove beneficial i ;o the South, are distasteful and un- ; satisfactory to the wealthy manipu- j ators, will not prevent the formation )f the American Cotton Association i >y the loyal sons of the South."

It J is confirmed testimony that no New- 1 berry resident can doubt. H. F. .Addy, farmer, 1247 Hunt St., 1 says: "A bad case of grip left myj kidneys in a frightful condition a j' few years ago. I had severe pains j across my back and was laid up forj1 two months. I couldn't do a tap of/' work during this time and was in bed , most of the while. My Kianeys act- > ed too freely, then again not freely j' enough, and there was sediment in | the secretions. I had dizzy and blinding spells, together with headaches. I tried different remedies, but didn't get any relief. About three months from the time kidney I trouble got a hold on me, I began I taking Doan's Kidney Pills. They' helped me from the first and in a i <nrt>;io oil aioms <vf the trouble "JliVl U Tt X111V Ui? ?? _ left me." (Statement given Novem- j ber 21, 1914.) On March 21, 1918, Mr. Addy| said: "Doan's Kidney Pills are I worthy of all the praise given them, i I used Doan's several years ago and, they brought me out of a bad spell j of kidney trouble. Whenever I feel any symptoms returning, Doan's give me the same prompt relief. I gladly confirm my former statement/' 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N.
