JQMV gaVe?^^?teT^a organizing, sult^ that could be obtained . "The Commltte on Resolutions were ? amiuuucwd. ? Chairman RuBiii uf the committee^ (befor^ reading the resrf lutlons took -oecaslon to implore the farmtmn he reasonable, that there was nothing toTgain _ in unreason ableness, stating that the farmers had been sinned aga+?et, but that through well guided cooperation bet ter.condltions could be brought about The resolutions submitted follows: We the tobacco growers of Frank lin County being assembled and after due deliberation are resolved: e That whereas all other lines ot in \dustry are showing unparalled thrift and prosperity, labor getting the high est "wages in human history, manu facturers admittedly making profits in numerou&x cases 200 per cent on the capital stock annually, all of which make the cost of living higher for the farming people, and whereas we take It as admitted that the fanner is en titled to his Bhare of prosperity and at least to a decent living wage, Now, therefore we the tobacco grow ers of Franklin County in mass meet ing assembled in the town of Louis burg do hereby promulgate and pled ge our earnest support to the follow ing resolutions adopted by the Vance County tobacco growers : "First. That In tne production we have stood between the elements and the rest of the world; we have carri ed all risks to date, and have already accounted for attendant loses, so we do now resent and protest against any tendencies ot those controlling the price of our tobacco In as much as said persons or corporations have run no risk in the piudnuUOBbf the crop, and stand no risk ot losing If the farmers are paid a fair price. "Second. In view of the fact that the manufacturers and. dealers are in creasing their wealth In these days ot prosperity all we ask of the commer cial world Is a square deal ? an op portunity to lay by some accumula tions for ourselves ind families. We desire to live and let live. We have mmwMMMppoiMOTammimp nor for our pleasure, but in th? hope ot profit Our product* are. tot sale but we are determined not to sacri fice the rsult of onr toll upon the al tar <4- s??sMlal?n' greed. "Third. That we are willing to of fer our tobacco upon the open market provided only that the trade is will ing to allow us a good living profit; otherwise, we shall feel compelled to call upon producers everywhere and of every class to come to our aid in aa effort to close the doors ot the pack ing houses until the markets ot tha world may Indicate a disposition to deal with ua In a }uqt mWfi*?r. "Fourth. That we further advise ,the fanners to pret>are their tobacco In a good merchantable condition and -market as uniformly as possible 8(T that the market will not be flooded at any one time. "Fifth. We furthermore request that' our brother farmers throughout the bright leaf district call district or county meetings and take similar ac tion Immediately. Ih sddltioa w* adopt the following Of our oirti: , , . r We MMuUiid that A permanent organtiatlon eonslstfng 'ot all farm, ?A Nmkeri'a?d time merchant* of 'WU county be formed with the ftuh pom of protfctlng the farmer In tk* present and all future tobacco crisis. That thtl organization cOuslst ot , a permanent Chairman, a secretary, and executive comnMtttgr which shall' o oft,' ?let Of-dt least one member from each tovnshlo In the county. _ uTbat we earnestly, request 'that the spirit Of co-operation be encouraged ? wfl m lutr foeunrarena tnfit && or ganlfcatfon fOr the entire bright to bsceo belt of this state be effected 'to advise with and assist the tobacco tar mere In the sale of their tobacco and to protect them against iny further crisis In fh?. tobacco market We further recommend that these resolution* be published In the Frank Un Timet. Mr. W. M. Person rose to. amend the resolution* to the effect that no tobacco be put on th& market until the price* become -satisfactory to the farmer. In his argument in defense of his amendment be stated subs tan tl ally that.no farmer should sell his to bacco for these prices, but should keep It at home and If the merchant pressed him to giro bond and tight It out In Court, that It would take two yfeara to get It Into Court and then a jury would give him the verdict. Ha also expressed himself as thinking that the Vederal Reserve, system was responsible for tight money and that the tobacco Interests had met and set the prlceto they would pay. His re marks In regard to resisting the pay ' ment of accounts brought forth much comment to the contrary -by the Chali and others. All taking the position that after t)?e merchant had favored the farmer by furnishing him all the year the least the farmer could do would be to co-operate with the mer chant to the end that the merchant could meet hi* obligation. No one ex pressed any other Idea than that the - mm chant yould be glud to cooperate with the farmer and assist him all they could. Messrs. Malone and Kuffln defend* ed the paaltion of the Banks In their desiie tu asBlil BWW the mercnancs and the farmers In stating that at nur .n*_Liiuas -borrowe* that the Danks had not attempted to stop loans except on unnecessary transactions such as automobile pa peTTBnd mat It had bfcen lioeral with its funds for all legitimate expenses. Mr. J. A- Mitchluer took the posi tion that in ordci lu U? uf any real good something must Ue done now to help the fellpw who cannot "help him self. - ? Mr,_J._.0. Sledge spoke of the ne cessity of the farmers carrying over Iheir surplus rrops. and suggested th? at the farmers make more corn and hay instead of hauling so much from town. To H posttiea h*? ft*? tempted, to make plain that the meet ing Bhould set a price for which the farmer should hold his tobacco he il lustrated by saying that if It costs you 40 cents a pound to make your tobacco you should add a reasonable profit and make your price and stick to It. The question on the motion for ad opting the resolutions was called for and it being found that the amend ment had no second the motion to ad^ opt the resolutions as reported was put and carried by a rising vote.
