Good prices for tobacco and the at mosphere of cosfidence and relief make this section of the State a plea sant one t) visit, according to the view or Senator Neil Christensen of Beaufort. He is here today to meet the directors of the Florence Cham ber of Commerce and discuss certain activities of the South Carolina De velopment Board, of which he is pre sident. Mr. Christensen reports that there is no tobacco in hid end of the State as they are taken uip with truck. But he is intenoely interested in the c operativo novemrent. Asked for an interview, he offered the follewing suggestion: "Good prices for truck down our way has hen greatly helped for over 4ix years by our T';ck Growers' As sociation. They are not all in it; but all benefit by it and recognize that fact. So, two years. ago when the Clemson College Extension Service, through Dr. W. W. Long, showed me a proopsed coo-perative marketing act, it at once enlisted my support. The Development Board put itself behind the effort, and we got the bill enacted into law in 1020. Since then several coo-perative organizations have been formed, but the Tobacco Growerg are the first to market unt der its provisiori. It is'of the greatest importance to the whole co-operativo movement in the Soutl thab their tobacco associa tion makes a clean cut sudes&. Lolayty to this farmers organiza tiori is needed. Loyalty, active loyal ty, by every man, woman and child who has any interest in crop prices, by bankers, merchants and profess ional men as well as farmers. Organized buyers under the old system are bound to fight you, Cer tain truck commission houses have fought our farmerg truck asssoda tion. They have done it persistent. r yand without quarter. I am told that certain tobacco manufacturers are doing that here. If they succeed prices will go down. How it i# possible that any farvmer or anyone dependent on the prospeN ity of their section can tolceite such Olposition is hard to understand. There is no quarref with the fair and open competition of independent buyers, nor with the farmer who excer cises his right to sell wvhere he pleas er, though we dio not approve his judgment, but when they attack the co-operatives it is hard to- excuse them. Thue farmer who sells independently, if lie has any intelligence, knows that his increased prices are due to the co-operatives. So even if he can con vince himself that he should stay oin the outside to get all the benefit wa, h out sharing the burdens, yjet he should have sense enough to see that it ir his interest to have the co-opera tive in the field. But your folks know all this bet ter' than I do, and they may feel that we outsiders are too free with advice. But I have 'his excuse, the co- oper' ative movement is the hope of all the farmers of all sections, and we truck.. c'rs want it to succeed for tobacco, f c Y t e - The old perple. beet hie op ne sane onti lions of mo l ef a 0f the, land are hopeletuly engulfd e Babies ar born in the mad. house -of jazz -and are being rocked in The or cradle of indecency. to *The~ : amusement mania. o pleas.. e nre insanity seets to have a nicted eighty-five per cent of the popula tion.
