Johnson, Prominent Aberdeen Attorney," and says: "But, in my opinion, the most eolossal fake the most far-reaching, j self -crippling proposition that has I ever been foisted on a trusting people lis your Co-Operative Marketing jscheme of the staple necessities of life." Then after delivering a sense less tyrade on co-operative market- . nT e i l ; ing, declares: i am iasi oecunwiK an old man, and the grave is inevita bly only a short distance before me." I dare say that his friends could sweep over the probability that some one has been so unkind as to make of this presumably estimable old gen tleman the cat's paw of his dirty scheme to deceive ignorant and help less farmers who outside of co-operative marketing, have r.o more chance in life than has the proverbial "cat in nell witnoui ciaws. This "Prominent Aberdeen Attor ney" says further: "And the pity of it is that it conies at a time when the trend of our court decisions are to wards Bolshevism!" Indeed a damag ing charge, "if true." Again says the "Prominent Aberdeen Attorney": "You hold off of the market one of the staple necessities of the lives of the poor." Damaging, "if true. Co operative Marketing simply does with the producer member's cotton what : the speculator did with it before the organization of co-operative market- ing marketed it in an orderly man ner as the wprld needed it, and there-, fore, at a profit. If this is a crime against "the half-naked children of the extreme poor" as claimed by this "Prominent Aberdeen Attorney,", is it not strange that he did not make the discovery in former years and champion the cause of this same naked class with all the energy of his strong young manhood twenty years ago and then some? Again, says this "Prominent Aber deen Attorney," "You refuse to sell cotton to the poor in the great cities, when their ragged children naked down to the navel are begging for it at 33 cents per pound:- You later sold that cotton for 21 cents! How dare you call that orderly, market ing?" T ' , : . Since the" organization of Co-Operative Marketing, tactics of the spec ulator have changed, as even a "Prominent Aberdeen Attorney" might have observed. NOW they buy at a high price early in the fall ("33 cents ) -.. as long as the non-co-ops Will rush it on the market and until they get control of the bulk of such cotton, then they run the market down to ("21 cents") in violation of the natural law of supply and demand and when cotton is the scarcest for 20 years, for no other reason than Lto'ruin co-operative marketing and to again enshackle both white and color ed with economic slavery as it existed before the birth of Co-operative Mar keting. This "Prominent Aberdeen Attor ney" charges. Co-operative Marketing with 'holding off the market one of the staple necessities of the lives of the poor." A "Prominent Aberdeen Attorney' -i i j i ,i i . . . . bnuuiu Know mai sucn would .be a restraint of trade and that the court! would promptly deal with such viola tion of law, especially in view of the fact that the hard-dving specu lator is ever ready to detect and push any such vantage point to strike f death blow to Co-operative Market ing which he hates worse than hell hates happiness. 1 .
