DELIVERIES . : (Continued from Page One) wheat. markets, then they would have to. sell cotton | ind wheat for future delivery. _ They call them futures contract markets and his is xactly what they are. They buy and sell prom- ises of contracts sometime im the future. There are no contracts, for under the physical rcumstances of futures dealing, there can be no contract. Neither party to the transaction Tecives ny consideration for a contract. : The man who buys and the man who sells, both yay their money to the broker. Neither the buyer or he seller receives any money as a consideration for a contract. Only 4he broker is paid. _ When they offer to buy and sell futures contracts not cotton or wheat) one broker simply places a bet y his client that the figures on the board will go} wer. The other broker simply places a bet for his ent that the figureson the board will go higher. SUPPOSE YOU DEMAND DELIVERIES ontract and demand delivery, what would happen? ~ Inthe first place, you would have no contract hat you could enforce in any court in the United States. You have simply been engaged in betting on game and the courts have so held in case after case. _. Suppose, to keep you from talking, they Alecide to deliver. you 100 bales of cotton. Z Under the law and under the rules, you may be lelivered 10 bales of cotton at each of 10 seaports, eginning in Texas and coming around up eat Bh antic seaboard. Each bale may be of a different grade; tn very low,on up as the seller sees fit. Under the law and the rules, the buyer has no ce uit must accept whatever is tendered, provid-| -ed it ecfaes within any grade fixed by the Secratary | rf apg enifure. oun is worth even less at points of delivery than| would be at inJand markets. As a consequence of having to take low grades nd conglomoration of grades, coupled with the fact ills, you would see the futility of accepting this cot- ton and would be ready to settle off at their figures. This is what actually happens. | HOW MUCH MONEY DOES THE GAMBLING MACHINE TAKE IN? : On each order to buy 100 bales of cotton, the yer is required to send in $800.00. This means that ose who sold 25 million bales of futures in 1943 d to cough up $200,000,000.00 and send it to New fork to this gambling machine. Those who bought he 25 million bales were also Eeen to send in 00,0600,000.00. On cotton futures alone, on the New York Ex- hange alone, the sum of $400, 000,000.00 went into we. machine. _ On the Chicago Board of Trade, $600.00 is sent in: for each 5,000 bushels of wheat futures. This means hat those who sold 1,800,000,000 bushels sent in 248,000,000.00 and those who bought sent in $216,- 00,000.00. - This makes a total of $432, 000,000.00 that went o the maw of the Chicago Hoard of Trade wheat utures machine. a billion. When you take the money that goes into all the futures machines over the country on all of the many farm commodities that are gambled on, you can un- derstand that these operators are cleaning up billions of dollays every year out of the gambling public. When you understand the tremendous amount of money involved in the profits of those -who operate these gambling machines you can understand why the machines are so powerful. These futures gamblers have been able to get endorsements from some Chambers of Commerce, | from some colleges and even from some ministers of g| name. : . =| Cowings, Meansville, Rt. calves for sale at my barn.

I have been reading, with great interest, your ae ials in the Marae ie your eas on nee issues ae me noe over the great expanse of oceans to a land where rea 4 is, tt would seem, very unreal. The refusal to repeal the margarine tax alone is a good example. | Your letter to Steve Pace was a masterpiece. 1 have re-read it several times and your remarks on George Washington, issue of February 23, 1944, No, 23, was the version of a real Georgia. State sigan of the type of Senator Walter George, of which there are NONE HIGHER. Especially, the second colt on the front page. These things put me in a quandary vas to wh not contemplate favoring one class against anothe Dairy interests versus cotton interests; urban people against farmers; federal government versus state government and a host of other similar condition which apparently - are now in the limelight a Ses public. There is only one issue before the American | p lie, or rather, there should be only one, viz: win? 3g this war in the shortest possible time with the saving of every possible human life and the shedding of just as little American blood as may be done to accomplish this purpose. Just HOW any group, class or individ- ual can see or think otherwise is utterly impossible from my viewpoint. The measuring of human. live the young men whose lives are at stake, in aeit monetary desires is beyond me. I only wish some of those who seem to be 80, in- clined, could be in a New Guinea jungle for 24 hours. By the time they had been bitten by every kind, typ, and character of tropical insect, had slept in a raj soaked foxhole, dodged Jap snipers by day and bomb by night, suffered. from a type of malaria which makes our Georgia and South Carolina malaria seer pea-soup, watched the planes carry the wound back to field hospitals, buried the dead and then arise to march in knee-deep mud under a continuous hail of Jap bullets with the certain knowledge that if wounded or captured, they would be subjected t the same fate as described in the February 9th issu of LIFE, I am quite certain that the dollar. mark would be gladly exchanged for a small picture | e the Stars and Stripes. a . 2 I commend you in your efforts to hasten this mistaken view to a speedy end. America as I leet it shortly after Pearl Harbor, was not like THIS. _ When and if, I get hack home, I hope to oe = as it was in the halcyon days when individual initiat- ive was the cardinal principle of everyones life; when freedom meant doing as the Constitution guarantee so long as you did not transgress the same Constitut- ional rights of others; when justice, right and the love of liberty was a by-word in our everyday life and when the idea of each true American was that the Government was to be supported BY THE PRO- PLE and not vice versa. - With it all, I have sublime faith that we will get back to fundamentals, for the American farmer he been that stabilizing factor which has brought us out of chaos to the light of day on every occasion of a national crisis. I have not lost that faith and that why I am here today; happy that I can do my bi toward preserving those things which were given: me as a heritage and which I, if I be true to myself, must pass on unsullied arid better, to succeeding gene tions. Good and the best of luck. Sincerely yours, Lt. Col., i. &. ATTY. GRAIN AND HAY SYRUP FOR SALE. FOR SALE ae San 500 buckets a gal.) 08 a preer. cane syrup for sae W. Grimes, Colquigt. 100 gal. Ga.
