BOURBON REACHES
HUNDRED MARK
Local Tobacco Campaign Results In
Signing 8,125,00 Pounds
NTo Date
SOLICITORS STILL HUSTLING
At a meeting held in the Court
House Saturday night, attended by
Chairman Sam Clay, James M. Cald
well, Ed. Burke, and other members
and workers in the Co-operative
Burley Tobacco Marketing Associa
tion's campaign, reports were pre
sented showing that Bourbon county
had reached the one hundred
per cent, mark in the campaign for
signed contracts.
The report showed that a total of
8,125,000 pounds of tobacco had
been signed up in the county to date,
which is better than ninety per cent
of last year's crop, and estimated to
amount in acreage to approximately
99 per cent, of this year's crop.
A large delegation of Bourbon
county growers attended the big
meeting held at Winchester yester
terday, in the interest of the mar
keting plan, and reported an enthu
siastic meeting, satisfied that Clark
county will soon be on the honor
roll. They will go to Frankfort to
day to attend the big meeting to be
held there. Secretary W. E. Hacker,
of the Paris Commercial Club, and
members of the Club have been in
vited to attend the noon-day lunch
eon to be given by the Frankfort
Chamber of Commerce, and to hear
the speech by Aaron Sapiro in the
afternoon. Merchants of Frankfort
will close their stores and help in
the work of signing the Franklin
county growers, who will be address
ed by Mr. Sapiro at ten o'clock this
morning.
With twenty days left in which to
complete their pool of 17,000,000
pounds of tobacco with the Burley
Tobacco Growers Co-operative Asso
ciation and needing nearly seventy
millions of pounds to make the pool
a success, the campaign to sign up
the needed acreage was resumed
yesterday with meetings in six coun
ties, two of which already have rais
ed 75 per cent quotas, but in which
an effort is being made to sign the
entire production, if it is possible to
obtain it. These two counties are
Clark and Fleming, large tobacco
growing counties. The other ,fonr
are Marion, Pendleton, Metcalfe and
Harrison.
Impetus is to be given the cam
paign by the participation of Aaron !i
Sapiro, California co-operative mar
keting genius and lawyer, and the
return of Congressman J. Campbell
Cantrill from Washington to remain
until the campaign is finished No
vember 15. In an interview in Wash
ington before starting back to Ken
tucky, Mr. Cantrill declared that the
failure of the proposed pool would
be a calamity to the Burley district
in general, and to Kentucky in par
ticular. The fifteen counties which have
completed their quota of 75 per cent
of the crop of 1920 are Bath, Bour
bon, Carroll, Clark, Fayette, Flem
ing, Jessamine, Lincoln, Mason,
Montgomery, Nelson, Nicholas, Old
ham, Spencer and Woodford. Prob
ably a dozen others have signed
enough tobacco to make it probable
that their quotas will be reached the
coming week.

COMMERCIAL
AFTER FAKHS
Issues
Strong Letter C
Fake Adyertising Solicitors
And Street Beggers
URGES ACTION BY CITIZEW
Declaring that Paris is beiag
"made a goat by fakirs and beg
gars," Secretary Wm. E. Hacker, of
the Paris Commercial Club, has
prepared letters which will be semt
out in the next few days to members
of the Commercial Club, urging"
them to co-operate for their mutual
protection.
The letter says, in part: "Fake
solicitors, advertising men, so-called
religious and charitable workers,
and especially, beggers, are OTer
running this city and taking thous
ands of dollars away every year tkat
should remain at home. Paris is com
sider,ed a Mecca for beggars and.
will be so long as we encourage
them as we do at present, Beggars
needing relief can get it through th
proper channels and the proper or
ganizations, and do not have to, ani,
should not be permitted to, depend
upon the sympathy of pedestrians."
The letter strikes particularly at
fake advertising salesman and fake
solicitors of various kinds, and urges
the members of the Commercial Club
to adhere strictly to an agreement,
several months ago to submit alL
doubtful propositions to the Sanc
tions Committee of the Commercial
Club for investigation. The matter
of requesting the City Council ta
pass an ordinance prohibiting street
begging has been raised recently and
efforts are expected to be directed
along that line at the first opportu
nity. The Board of Directors of tfcs
Commercial Club held a meeting last
night at the Peoples-Deposit Bank Sb
Trust Co.'s officeB, when arrangt
ments were made for holding the an
nual election of officers and direc
tors, also for the annual meeting to
be held on November 22. Ballots
will be mailed to Club members this
week for the purpose of nominating
three candidates for each office to be
filled. The directors will also con
sider a series of social meetings of
the membership, which will take
form of noon day luncheon or even
ing dinners. Dr. William. J. Hutck
ens, president of Berea College, lias
recently consented to speak at one of
me Be meetings.
o
In these days a man has to use
his head if he gets ahead.
o
Another objection to bootleggers 4
is that they sell such mean liquor at
such high prices."
