Thompson Concerning Hie Cotton Plan. "Washington, Dec. 27.?Col. Robert M. Thompson, of New York, head of the syndicate which proposed to ad vance $50,000,000 for the purpose of handling the Southern cotton crop blames the Southern planter for the delay in putting the scheme into effect. He declared here today thai the syndicate still was ready to pro ceed with the plan. which lie said meant everything to the Southern farmer. "We did not reject the plan." he declared. "It was the South which rejected it: and the Southern farm ers are opposed to it only because they do not understand it. They will have to be educated Into the knowl edge that our scheme is not a spec ulative One. as they have been led by certain Interested parties In the South to believe. "We would he willing today to put through the plan which we proposed some time ago to tho committee from tho South which met in New York and talked over the proposi tion. We are not trying to urge the South to accept something it does not want. but if it should appoint a committee and send it to us we would see to it that the plan we suggested was put through. "As it is. a number of individual farmers of the South hnxe expressed their desire to have us handle their crop for them on the plan which we proposed for the entire south. This will be a test which will show the rest of the South just what we intend ed: ami it is probable that by next year, others will be willing to fall in with the scheme. "The Southern cotton farmers this year will lose $300,000,000; and the trouble is that at least $200,000,000 of this will go abroad. The whole coun try, not only the South, will be the loser by the Smith's refusal to accept the economic proposition we submit ted." liest Thirty Kars of Corn From Any Portion of The United States How Produced.
