REDUCTION PLAN MET
WITH UNANIMOUS APPROVAL
Columbia, .Ian. 10?Officials of the
South Carolina Division 01' the American
Cotton association say that no
more enthusiastic meetings for any
purpose were ever held in the state
than the cotton acreage reduction
meeting held in practically every
county last week, tells of a v large
court house crowd enthusiastically
and unanimously adopting the resolutions
calling for a reduction of T>0 pei
'cent, in the cotton acreage this year.
In nearly every instance pledges to
reduce were signed at the meeting by
all in attendance.
"The cotton acreage reduction
campaign has gotten away to a splen
did start in South Carolina," said
President li. C. Hamer of the South
Carolina Division last night. They are
determined that South Carolina shall
not contribute to the bankruptcy, of
the South by planting a large cotton
crop this year."
In many of the counties resolutions
were adopted calling on the bankers
to refuse credit to farmers who do not
reduce the 50 per cent requested.
Typical of these resolution was the
?.no passed at the Greenwood meet

lows:
"Resolved that this meeting re- "
quests the bankers not to lend any :
money for any purpose whatsoever to ^

only one-third of his cultivated land
on a basis of 1920 in cotton. That all :
notes be written with this clause and j
upon violation to become due and ,<

a resolution similar in tone to the j
above and went further and adopted j"
the following:
j
"That a committee be appointed byj(
thi? inpptin? tr? ermfer with the letr
islative delegation from Sumter
county in reference to having them
