U.?TIM Georgia Chamber or Coffefaasro* to arranging to hold a bis meeting lay Atlanta 1% the early part of October, which wll be known as the Seath- ^ asters Food Crops Conference. The object of the conference wfU be to secure the growing of a larger amount of all foodstuffs, both for man and animals, in the cotton producing States of the southeast. At the same time, the cotton states lyin* TNI or ttte Mississippi Will be requested to hold A similar conference in some suitably toasted c*ty within each reach of their territory. - j The plana, as outlined by the ' State chamber, call for between 600 and dOO delegates.

Earl Kltohener, the British minister pi j hir, who 'is probably the most rsUsble source of Information, states that it will extend over a period or sigh teen months. That will mean two crops for us. It ls Imperative that the South shall be absolutely ^ Independent of outside sources of supply for next year. Then, no matter what price cotton may bring, ws shall be immune from the effects of high prices for food stuffs Jp other parts of the.world. The 8outh can do It.
