Xow that wo arc npproachinc the *'~,0<" mark with our subscriptions a cannery we are ready for the cm ! move in the matter: We pro- j pes. to co to the farmers of the eoun with %the following proposition: W, will take ?50 or? 100 subscrip An to rho tannery, allowing you to pay for your subscription in produce. That is. we will take, say threo and h fraction tons of tomatoes in payment for one share of stock. Many have complained that the farmers '!id not respond liberally to the proposed movement. Some even went. far as t -> say that the farmers hould build the t annery. We know very w.-il why many of them have not sub- ril they had no money. The prosperous farmer, in many infantes, is as hard run as is the hoj>elessly involvi i farmer, for the farmtr is still holding his cotton. That's his business, and we have ro sujrgestion ?o offer him. But we know certainly of (juite a number of farmers who wiil acroe to take stock and pay 'or '.ho took with the first year's nop of product*. It ran readily be -eon that this will bo as real a help to th? movement u.s would the cash payment, now that we have in sight the necessary cash to buy a plant. In fact, it will take more cash money to buy 'hi* produce to bo eanned than to buy and build a plant. We could Sot make this proposition earlier in the movement for the reason that it is point; to take the entire five thousand pood, hard dollars to pet ready ro can. Until we pot this far along, it is manifest that we could not, with ,;ny degree of safety, go to a farmer with the proposition we are now ready to make. We could not even go to the farmer and ask him to sign up to plant and sell at. a certain price one acre of tomatoes. This we will soon be able to do, and we believe fho cannery is now an assured fact We are almost over the $5,000 mark and hope to go over it this week. Then we will be ready for the other two moves, above mentioned. Jus* .as soon as we get the remaining few subscriptions necessary to the $5,000 total we will call a mooting of th.? -ubscribers r.t the courthouse and g ? into the details of the nee-, >ary future operations. Ir. the meantime, we propose going after subrip:. -us "in kind" from the farm ^ >f the county. And, unless we are very much mistaken, we believe '. ill meet with a success that will open the . yes o* some of the T\: ubting Thomases.

The government's attitude is denounced in a protest signed by 150 lawyers at Madras as "a campaign of repression and abuse of the ordinary provisions of the law for political purposes, involving unwarranted and unconstitutional interference with the liberty of citizens." "We consider," the lawyers assert* I'd, "that the wholesale find unjustifiable arrests and imprisonments of public-spirited citizens for political activities constitute a grave menace to public safety and express our firm conviction that such measures inaugurated in a time of law and order are ^,niu. . .u ~ i J 1-- ? -)iurn;i?nv lilW illiu (irocr, Sewn leading members of the Model ate party in Calcutta have issued a manifesto deploring the initiation of a repressive policy simultaneous with the visit of the Prince of Wales. They declare that coercion is no remedy for political unrest and that a policy ut repression will defeat its own end and lead to serious results. Lord Reading, the viceroy, however, contends that the government policy tf not one of repression. Defending that policy in replying to an address presented by the Bengal Mahnjan Sabha, he declared that "no greater fallacy exists than to suggest that the gov; ^COE MOl Quality I RELIABLE CR< GROWERS FOF SIXTY YEARS Formulas s S.

Then, he said, demonstrations ar made to force the government to innk more arrests. That he said was the situation dis passionately stated. Although h would be sorry to say one word tha would inei'ease the state of tension nl ready existing, the viceroy said tha the policy of the government in pro venting intimidation and unlawful op pression and of enforcing due regar for law must persist. The viceroy reiterated statement he had previously made that ther is no intention by the Indian govern ment to interfere with opposition t the government or with the expres sion of strong feelings against it, pre and that it became necessary for th government to exercise power and au thority to combat intimidation and co ereion brought to bear upon person to force them to take action in whic they did not believe. The viceroy charged that the ni rests in Calcutta were in most in stances forced upon the government He asserted that the political leader vided that the law is observed. "The government has never wishe to shut out dis< ussion," he assertec "quite the opposite.
