m REVOLTING FUND FOR BUYING COTTON. President of American Cotton Association Telia of Result* at Conference. St. Matthews, June 6?President J. 8. Wannaniaker on his return from the conference of the various lines of the cotton industry, recently held in New York City, gave out the following interview today: I "In compliance with the resolution unanimously passed by the conference In New York, asking the Federal Reserve Banking System to grant more liberal extensions of credits and a rediscount rate ?f not exceeding 5 per cent on commercial and agricultural paper, and renewals of loans on agricultural products?including cotton? until the export markets can be opened up for same, this request has been laid before the president, the National officials and congress. "In addition to this, I have laid be fere the National officials and our law-making body, a request that the funds now on deposit with the United States Treasurer, which accumulated through the sale of cotton seized by the United States Government from planters and from business men in the South during the war between the Slates, be utilized as a revolving fund for the purchase of cotton until the markets can be opened for the same. "The English government, in addition to guaranteeing 75 per cent of tiie loss on exports since 1014, ha? been using all means for encouraging exports, opening up foreign markets and building up foreign ti-ade, and has been purchasing Egyptian cotton direct, which action has resulted in bringing great relief to the Egyptian cotton grower, the English government having announced the policy of ' continuing to make these purchases until cotton reaches the price of the cost of production. In addition to this, the English government is gianting loans of 17 cents per pound (at 7 per cent interest) and is extending liberal loans to Egyptian cot. ton growers. Would Furnish Direct Itcliet. "The use of the funds which accumulated from the War Between the States, for the purpose of bringing relief to the cotton producers of the South, under the present distressing financial condition, would bring dirtct releif to the people of the South and indirect benefits to the entire nation, and could not be used for a better purpose than to relieve the very people to whom the money rightfully belongs. "Every vestige of sectionalism should be removed, following the World War, and the use of these funds, for this purpose, will have a wholesome effect and would be a step in this direction. It is the key to the situation. Cotton to a far greatel value than the amount of the funds on hand, could be purchased, as additional moneys could be borrowed on the cotton, so purchased and this additional money could be likewise invested in cotton. "We are facing the absolute certainty of a minimum cotton crop for 1921, (regardless of seasons,) on account of the enormous reduction in cotton acreage and in the use of commercial fertilizers. "In addition to this, the census which is now being taken of the socalled "carry-over" (which census win snow tne number of bales and v the grades of same) is bringing to light the fact that this so-called surplus will be enormously reduced by un-spinliable" cotton. "When these facts are established and when exports become opened up, the question of sufficient supplies of raw cotton will be of serious concern. Millions of people in Europe and in Asia are in pressing need of cotton goods. The people of these countries have lands, forests, mines and mills, and an industrious population, and a great basis of credit can be arranged whereby the people of these countries can secure our cotton. Supplies in Mills. "Investigation brings to light the fact that American mills, particularly in the North, have only from 10 to 20 per cent of the supply of raw cotton on hand that they had on hand of V* /x oamo loot voo * T ? * ot iut* nuiuu 11 inv iaot j . 111 a*-* dition to this, the amount of raw cotton with foreign mills is startlingly short. As as illustration, the Dominion Textile Company of Montreal, Canada, which last year had $4,487,. 000 worth of cotton on hand, has cut itn stock down to 357,000. Finished cotton goods, in like manner, have been startlingly reduced from the Bhelves of the retailer on up, as compared with the same period of last year. 1 "The request made by the cotton conference for a re-discount rate of ' not exceeding 5 per cent on commercial and agricultural paper and for I renewal of agricultural loans, (socalled frozen assets,) until the marI kets can be opened, and for more liberal extension of credits, (to en) able the producer to produce,) and the suggestion of the utilization of ) the fund from cotton which was seized during the War Between the ) States, for the purpose mentioned, has met with approval of leading ) . Congressmen and Senators from , many sections of the nation, and < steps are now being taken for the enactment of the necessary measures | that will make all of thi8 effective". ^ o WHEN EVERY MOVE HURTS i Lame every morning, achy and stiff all day, wors^ when it's damp or chilly? Suspect your kidneys and try the remedy your neighbors use. Ask !. your neighbor. C. E. P?ck, Dillon, gave the following statement December 21, 1914: "My kidneys were out of order and I had dull pains in the small of my back. I was so sore and lame, I could & THE DOLL I hardly bend and it was just as hard to straighten. I had head aches and spells of dizziness. The secretions parsed irregularly and I had other symptoms of kidney trouble. I read !of Doan's Kidney Pills and after us,ing them as directed soon got relief from my trouble. I keep Doan's on hand now and when a kidney medicine is needed, they never fail to give good results." Lasting Benefit. On January 29, 1918 Mr. Peck said: "1 have had better health the last four years than I have ever had ,in my life. I give the credit to Doan's Kidney Pills, as they gave me a cure four years ago." ; 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn C'Co., Mfgrs., Buffaio, N. Y.?6 9 2t.
