Former Governor Asks Cotton Association To Furnish Data for Use m Europe PROGRESS OF CAMPAIGN IN SOUTH TO BE REPORTED He- Will Use The Facts in Ex plaining Situation in Cotton r* MHl Sections of Europe. ^Columbia, March 20.?The South Carolina Cotton Association today re ceived a telegram from Former Gov ernor Richard I. Manning requesting that the latest detailed information concerning the cotton campaign m>i only, from South Carolina but the en tire cotton belt be wired him. Hv urgCfd that this information be giv.-n in full as he wished it for the pur-, pose, of using it in the various gr-:.t cotton centers in Europe. The Association,, after checking ik< returns from this State in full and the various sections of^the cotton belt wired him at length. The result of the information telegraphed to b:m * * - will - prove a source of great satisfae Hr tion and happiness to him, said a member of the committee today, and this information will be a revelation, proving truly startling and amazing to the speculators of the North and to the mnaufacturers. of Europe wh^ have been so foolish as to rely on in formation from the Northern specula v ? tor* ?. '. "Reports show beyond the shadow of a .doubt that cotton acreage reduc-1 tion will be fully 33 1-3 per cent in H^South Carolina and throughout the entire belt," said a member of the central committee today. "In addi- \ tion ..to this crop preparation is ex-j tremely backward, fertilizer sales are amazingly short, being only a small per cent of the 10-year average. La bor conditions are extremely acute and will grow much worse." '.The central committee declared to day -.that confidential information on labor, conditions is causing serious; alarm.. "The laborers." it says "are being . greatly disturbed by.. prof es- I sional agitators in every section of the belt. The negroes returning] from.the army are in thousands of: cases. drifting north. The ones who i drift .to the cotton belt, in SO per; cent of the cares." are refusing to go to w.ork. and are spending lives of idleness. They are absolutely dis satisfied'-'with the pay and .conditions' on-the .farm. A regular systematic j caTOpa?rn. is on .engincAred from soipe Cf iy^lch^Wii-.centra!-point, its object }..?? ^? !5ng-.to: convince the negro that he.-iS; n&i obtaining his-ones. that, it is fool -, % fsh for.-hhn to labor on. the farm under ;> ..e^s^hg condhfens' and that ii would .be greatly to his advantage to go north.' : 7 ./ ||:?-' "With the information before the South Carolina Association and oth - er associations, they urge that the I committees in the various counties! and. school districts counternc; : ? evil influence and campaign by ea ing a meeting of the negroes and 'At ting them correctlv ''nformed. Tn this way the situation be handled to a much better advantage. However, regardless of any step-- that may re taken, with labor conditions as de scribed above, it wH be absolutely impossible to plant and gather even two-thirds of the crop. Tf the ne?rro could onlv understand that he is not wanted North, that the South is op. the eve of a new era. that it will prove of great benefit to him. a*1 well as to others, it would probably have a good effect. "In every section of the belt farm er?.' as a matter of good business and a ^ne. sound business proposition are buyinsr fOT* ^etcher delivery the amount of cotton they expected to make, provided they had planted, and will rdant their lands in food crops, not planting an acre of cot- j tan. This will result, of course, in a double cut. The movement is be- j coming extremely popular. One of the best posted, and most experienc- j ei business men in the South is send- j ing out the following information: "To the Southern Cotton Association: "As a matter of good business, I urge that you call to the attention of the farmers of your state the fact that they can save themselves worry, j work, trouble, and the danger of the j usual crop disasters, by planting! their lands altogether in corn, buying! the amount of cotton they could rea sonably expect to make in New York j for October delivery, as under thej *n'ew contract" they can secure all j white cotton. This will result in a j double cut, corn will be extremely j high, probably $3 a bushel. It is a; paying crop, does not require any-] thing like the fertilizer, nor anything i like the labor that cotton does. By planting in the corn peas or velvet beans, you can have a second money' crop. In addition to this the lands j are wonderfully improved. "Do not forget that the present j price for cotton, according to the' Federal Refcerve figures as to the cost; of production, that the present price' for October cotton is far below what; it can be produced for. Thet-efore, i why not buy cotton when you can buy I it cheaper than you can make it? If/ the South would follow this course. \ it will have a remarkable effect and;, contribute wonderfully to commercial freedom of the South, j am con- j vinced beyond a shadow of a doubt j that serious labor trouble is brew- j ing throughout the South. T ur^e; that your association place this mat- . ter beiore the farmers in every sec-, tion of the State. It is not too later for them to plant their lands in corn j [ Farmers are converting land intend- j ed for cotton into corn in every sec- J s tion.

Washington. March 21.?Decision of the war department to proceed with the purchase of the sites of 15 army camps and 13 balloon and, flying fie'ds over the country was nn today by Acting Secretary Crowrfi. Less than $15,000,000 will be involved, Mr. Crewel! said,* and it will not be necessary to await action I by'congress as the department now i has --.he necessary funds. I . With ihese purchases completed ! the army will have,- 30 training camps, including the original 16 can tonments constructed for the training of the National Army and 19 aviation centers most of which will be in the Southeastern States, Texas and Cali fornia.

Orders already have gone out /or the aban donment of 20 of the camps, includ ing nearly all of the National Guards training centers set up after the Unit ed States declared war on Germany.

Distillers Appeal to Courts To Declare Prohibition Amend ment Unconstitutional i WAR PROHIBITION ALSO t TO BE ATTACKED ! i Effort Will Be Made in Several I States To Set Aside Ratifica ! tion. j New York. March 21?The commit ; toe of distillers of the United Staces, ; representing the entire distilling iri [dustry, announced tonight that steps j were being taken to attack the con \ Stit?tion?lity of the federal prohibi tion amendment and the war time pro ? hibition act. j Levy Mayer of Chicago, counsel for : the organization, was instructed to ? arrange for a suit to test the emei ; gency prohibition lav.- after the treaty ! of peace has been signed. Action to j bring about a judicial review of the : 1 S:h amendment, it was said, would , await the outcome of referendum ; elections in 13 States wh^re petitions jfor calling a popular vote on the "bone ! dry" enactment have been filed or are in circulation Mr. Mayer advised the committee ! that in States having referendum laws ?and whose legislatures have rat . i he amendment the ratification would : have no effect unless a majority ^f the : votes cast in the elections favored the ; amendment. I The attorney also gave an opinion ' that if the war time prohibition act Is unconstitutional, manufacture distilled spirits, forbidden by the pres ident tinder the food conservation laws, could be lawfully resume.: as soon as the war is ended. Tn their discussion of measures to nullify the federal amendment, the distillers named California. Washing ton. Oregon, Nevada. Idaho, Utah, i New Mexico. Colorado, Michigan. Ohio. Missouri. Maine and Nebraska as States where referendum petition::! have been circulated. As 45 States legislatures ratified the amendment; ; nine more than the necessary three-1 fourths the distillers' announced plan ! of action could not be carried out if ! the people of more than four States! approve the decisions of their legis- j Iative bodies. The distillers attack on the war; time prohibition act follows the lines laid down by counsel for the brewers! in their test suit filed here yesterday, j alleging that the law, having been en-j acted a"fter the signing of the armis- ; tice went beyond the power of cen-j gross to adopt measures for the na- I Lion's security and defense.

Would Have Him State Position On the League of Nations Covenant i j MAKES STRONG STATE MENT TO PUBLIC LEmph?sizes Partiality Exhibi ed for C) "'by Republicans, Notably ::'. an. - Washington, March 21.?Congress j man Richard Whaley, who is a mem j ber of the Democratic reorganization executive committee of the house, to j day issued a statement again calling ! attention to the fact that Speaker I Clark has ::ct publicly taken a pos ition on the league of nations, and I suggesting" that he will be forced into advocacy cn the league by party sentiment and the action, of Demo crats in the Missouri legislature in demanding the resignation of Senator Reed. Mr. Whaley also emphasized the partiality exhibited for Mr. Clark by reactionary Republicans, notably Mr. Mann. The statement is as follows: "As one of the Southern members i of congress I am convinced Ex Speaker C'ark should not be elected to lead the minority on the floor of the house. From all I can learn the defeat of the Democratic party a: the last election was due to the fact that the leadership of the party for the past several years was entrusted to hands whi^h led it by the expres sion of individual views and not the views of the majority of the Demo crats members. I am satisfied in i order for the party to be successful J the leadership should express the I views cf the majority and not the views cf a minority of the Demo crats of the house. "Ther^ has been a division in the party on 7ho floor ever since Wood row Wilson came into off.ee and the leaders of the party hpve been the exponents of the minority views and. therefore: the creators of the division in the party. Whenever a paramount issue was prosnn:<--d to the House, [invariably one or mom cf the Demo ? eratic leaders would join with those fighting the executive and rh~ nnhcics (he desired enacted into legislation, j "Those cf us who do not believe [ Mr. Clark and Mr. Kitchin have i properly led 'the party, and feel they should not he <-"oo:ed as leaders in the next congress, believe in the creation of a steering committee which committee should elect the [leader. This leader should carry out j [-the views of the majority of the par-j [ty. V.'hea he felt he conhl not do th"*s ! he would he expected to rcsiscn h:*>1 I office and permit the selection of I seme one else who could express par ty vfews : 'stead of* individual views. "The Republicans folly appreciate the fact that through the actions ofi Mr. Clark and others a div ision has! heen created in. the'Democratic ranks i which resulted in the success of the ! Republican party last fall. The con-j tinua-ice of this division would be as- ' sored by the election of Mr. Clark as! leader, and, therefore, contribute to; the success of the Republican party' in t h( e:; ct ion o f 1 $20. "I am reliably informed that Mr. Mann, who has juest been defeated for the speakership by the Repub licans, is heartily in favor of Mr. Clark, and beiieves lie is the logical' leader for the Democratic side. Doubt- j, less the same view is shared by all! the Republican reactionaries, whoj would hah with delight the Demo-' cratic members continuing the divis ion in. the party and in their failure p to unite and cooperate with the pres ident.

"On the part of the Russian fed era t soviet republic." he said, "there thus exists no obstacles to the estab lishment of proper relations with ?other countries, especially with the United States.
