to present the cooperative marketini
plan of selling cotton to the farmers
of Chesterfield County. i
Mr. Hamer said the Cotton Association
found that it was costing the
Southern farmer two hundred and
fifty million dollars each year to
market its crop because their system
of marketing was wrong.
After studying all systems of marketing
the Association decided that
the coonerative Dlan was the most
successful in marketing other produce
so they appointed a committee of men
like Clarence Poe of the "Progressive
Farmer, J. S. Wannamaker, Mr. Olon
of Lugoff and others to work up the
plan they were now presenting to the
farmers for their acceptance. .
He said that it must be a good plan
as two hundred thousand farmers had
signed the contract to sell one and
one half million bales already and
they had hardly begun. That North
Carolina signed three hundred thousand
bales when only two hundred
thousand was asked and South Carolina
with only two counties worked
had signed forty thousand bales. He
told the meeting that the biggest
work was to educate the farmers as
to what the contract was. He said
the Association was not making a
fight on the legitimate cotton buyer
but that the Association would sell
cotton to these men and to the mills.
He explained that the cotton buyir
was necessary. He said the General
Assembly at the last meeting had
passed a special bill authorizing the
organization of this Association.
He laid stress on the fact that four
hundred thousand bales must be signed
up by the Association before any
contract was binding.
He then told the meeting that this
Association would Bell only the one
commodity, Cotton, and would hare
as members only growers of eotton
or those who owned farms and re
celved cotton as rent. He said the
Federal Reserve Bank appreciated the
plan to such an extent that they were
loaning the Association large sums
to market the crop. He urged Bank,
er and Merchant to study the plan
and adviBe farmers to sign the contract
In speaking of the contract Mr.
Hamer said all signers agree to market
all of their cotton through the
Association for a period of five years
and that a heavy penalty was prescribed
for failure to live up to the
contract. He said the reason for the
five year contract was that It was
impossible to get good men to serve
the Association for a short period of
time and that the mills who would
buy from the Association would want

; to be sure of being able to buy the
> next year as they would hare to
sever other connections. Signers
must pay |5.00 dues for the 5 year o
membership and the only way to quit t
during that time was either to die, t
leave the State or quit growing cot- ^
ton. t
He explained that the members sold n
their own cotton by electing eleven
: directors from eleven districts in 1
. the State who would direct the work,
i ings of the organization with one f
other director appointed by the gov.
i ernor of the state.
He said the present organization .
was only temporary and would cease '
to exist as soon as the permanent
organisation was perfected when four
hundred thousand bales were signed
Officers Would then be elected by the
members.
Mr. Hamer said it would be neces. J
sary to employ high class graders and
sellers as it woudl not pay to have
cheap men. He then spoke of the
wonderful work of Mr. J. C. Rivers,
of this county, with the State Warehouse
System. He said this system
had saved farmers thousands of dollars.
Mr. Hamer said Associations
in some of the other states advanced
60 per cent as soon a* the cotton was
delivered and the balance when sold
during a 12 months period. Statistics
show that only about 50 per cent
of our cotton is sold the day it is ginned
so that the 60 per cent advance
would put more money in circulation 4
than in present day.
He said the mortgage and lein 0
clauses were very clear in contract #
and holders were fully protected. w
He said the Association would open *
a campaign for members In 20 coun- t:
ties on Monday and he begged this 1
meeting to take some action. ~
After answering many questions b
Mr. Hamer put the motion to have 4
Mr. R. B. L&ney and Mr. W. J. Tiller ?
appointed to form a committee to M

men as well as cotton growers, that ~*
