Columbia.?The State Council of Defense has gone on record, by the adoption of resolutions at the bimonthly meeting held here Thursday, as favoring a government financed cotton corporation; and recommendation has been made to Pros ident Wilson and Congre. s ih it action be taken, through the I ,rm:ilion of sujh a t;<vrrnmenta! agi ncy. to fix a minimum price whuh lbfarmer may be (|uaranteed for hi.cotton.

An appropriate remed\ to re-ice ti.is situation is asked for. since many women arc living in idleness while the farm labor shortage grows mere acute. Two other resolutions, both o' state-wide importance, were adept ed. One of those deprecates the sah and use of fireworks during th period of the war and calls upon niu j nicipalities to forbid either. The other urges members of the coun'y units to keep on the alert for slackers, for those who abuse the system of paying allotments, and for oth.ei irregularities.

They had also rendered useless to the Germans the Montdidier-Chaul- . nes railway, which was the only line feeding the front at the bottom of the Montdidier pocket. The forces remaining there were in danger of not getting out without heavy losses. The booty taken during the past J two days has been so large that h has not been possible to make an inventory of it as yet. It includes an enormous amount ef shells of all calibers and arms of a.I descriptions The attack extended to the eastward this morning, giving an unex t peeled development in the Fionm I participation in the battle.

The Kronen c successes north of Montdidier were f partially due to surprise, but the t Germans were aware of the impend- t ing attack south of the town. They ( v ore defeated just the same.

GATHERING THE CROP IS GREAT PROBLEM Suggests the Way to Take Care of Possible Surplus Crop. Speaking on the cotton situation I t? re the Fanners' Congress at College Station. Tex.. .Iu!y 29, Clarence Ousley. Assistant Secretary of Agriculture, said that as he sees the i nation "in calamity impends if we i ) no; lose ou; heads." and that lie is " : ccnoi-rm d about the gatherb v o' t! i">' . than about disposing of it." Ho o'To rod a so'ut:on. oven if there i: a surplus 01' from ."> to 4 million bales, "n I says.

Kurthormore, ho points out that tho Government did not ask for so large a crop, and that in all fairness this fact must be recognized, tlie crop having boon produced because tho southern growers refused to hood the warning of agricultural leaders and economists. Government's Aid Limited. Nevertheless, Mr. Ousley points out, tho Government is prepared to do whatever it can to help avert hardship, though its ability in this direction is limited, even though it exercises Us war powers to the utmost. It must be remembered, he cautions, that not even the Government of the United States, with all its powers, can make two bales of cotton fit i 11 to the place where there is only room for one. By the aid of Government agencies, by judicious marketing, by withholding part of the crop for later development, by adjustment of next year's acreage, the South can come out whole and with profit. There are not enough persons on he farms?men. women, and chilIron?to gather the crop, much of which must he lost, Mr. Ousley hirks, unless the people of the .owns will help. The prosperity of wory town in the cotton belt depends tpon saving and marketing this imnvrtant money crop, and it is imperitive that the people of the towns >rganize for cotton picking. There s no labor that may he imported, and u-ne that may be created by the iovornment or conscripted. On the >lher hand, there are enough men ,nd women a+. useless tasks in the >outh who can turn in and save the rop. lie did not doubt that they could do it when they ;mr eive the cod.
