'Georgia will get not only ‘the back

Barrett, president of the National
Farmers Union, in an interview for
The Week.

“The great influx of people into
j Florida at this time illustrates bet¬
ter than anything else can the turn¬
ing of our first thought to ‘living.’ I
don’t kn 9 W that Florida is in a real
danger of becoming over-peopled be
cause an almost unprecedented tide
of humanity has turned that way, but
I do know the rush to Florida is be
cause of the human desire to have
comforts, to see the beauties of
ture, to enjoy health and happiness
THE LEADER-TRIBUNE, FORT VALLEY, GA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1925.
! in God’s sunshine. And yet, Georgia
i has all Florida can possibly offer a
j comfort-seeking humanity, and more,
j Indeed, there is but one Georgia in
I all this great universe. No one of
the great West states can claim the
oneness Georgia can; everyone of
them has a duplicate somewhere.
Florida is not alone, in all its won
ders.
If there was one half the human
excitement about Georgia there is
about Florida this state wouldn’t
have a vacant acre, not a vacant lot
or farm.
.. Florida is a semi-tropical country,
am * the same semi-tropical scenery
! found in Florida is to be found in
Georgia. Down in Florida they figure
i that the real ‘Florida’ starts about
Orlando and runs down to the end of
the peninsular. They do not count
from Orlando up their ‘Florida.’ That
upper part of the state is, in a way,
rather looked upon as an extension
of Georgia. The great development;
the grand rush for million dollar
homes; for water-frontage estates
and all that kind of thing is below
Orlando.
“Georgia has more of what those
people are trying to find in Florida
than Florida itself has. In South
Georgia oranges grow as well as they
do grown in hlorida; the apples in Florida North Georgia can’t grow, are J \
and tween in the all the intervening and the space be-j
oranges apples
Georgia grows everything else. !
I do not believe there is ever
coming any ‘big break’ in Florida,
Florida as it is today is there to
stay. Hundreds of millions are being
invested in improvements, in develop
ments, and that investment makes
sure there is no danger of any going I
backward. The investment itself
sets up the necessity that Florida of
today and tomorrow stick. They have
their great highways, people are ]
building costly homes, wonderful.
groves are being cultivated, and I ,
those things can’t be taken away.
They have got to stay there for
somebody, and somebody has got to j
have and to keep them. There may
be a pause or a halt may be called by I
some circumstance, but Florida de
veloped is a permanency.
„ Tf It is . not . going . f to k be i because the
state becomes overpeopled that Geor
gia will catch the ’back wash.’ Oh,
of course some people who go down
there and don’t find just what they.

want for what they want are going
to turn back and settle down else
where, but the consideration which
will bring most people here is dif
ferent. It is because what Georgia
has to offer seeking humanity is bet¬
ter and there is more of it.
“I have been into every state in
the United States, and into every
part of every state. I have travelled
in my capacity a little more than a
million, six hundred thousand miles
in this country of ours, and in my
travels have had occasion to make a
minute study of every state 1 have
been in. No other state in all these
United tSates has everything for
the comfort and happiness of man
kind like Georgia.
We have the semi-tropical scene
ry, the semi-tropical climate, the
wonderful water-frontage—all that
Florida has, and just a little better.
Georgia’s wonderful east coast af
fords those things just as Florida
does, and it is not as hot; just a lit
tie cooler in the winter time, never
too cold. Nowhere in Florida is
there more beautiful handiwork c f
nature than the islands off the coast
of Georgia. Nowhere can Jekyl and
Cumberland and the other islands off
this coast be bested. And with this
state, all that wonderful country; the
semi-trepieal section where the great
gray moss hangs like nature cur
tains from the trees; where the cli
matic conditions are like nowhere
else in the whole country; where
there are the beach attractions, the
fishing and boating possibilities; the*
scope for development of mag
nificent homes—all this great country j
0 f Georgia’s is backed by a truly
wonderful agricultural stretch of
land—land where was grown years
ago the finest rice in the world; the
greatest sea-island cotton producing
part of the universe, where the
fruits grow-in abundance as they can
grow nowhere else. An agricultural
country which has no superior any
where in America.
‘Nothing in Florida or California
is more exclusive than Jekyl; few
spots are to be found more beautiful
than the country in the vicinity of
Cumberland. Between St. Mary’s and i
Savannah is probably the orettiest !
stretch of nature's beauty in all this !

whole country, and this thought

changed his mind about building]
great Southern home. He has
a place near Savannah, and ;

reason. He has found that he can
in South Georgia all the pleasure,
the comfort, all the beauty he can

cents. That applies to the private
schools, colleges and every branch of
learning In the State.
The program for Children's Day
looms as one of the most Interesting
of the entire Fair, and every effort
will be made to make It a gala occa¬
sion for the young folkB, one long to
be remembered In the minds of Geor
gia students.
In addition to the regular exhibits,
the band concerts, the great Midway
attractions, the Grand Circuit harness
racing and other amusements, there
will be a monster fireworks program
across the lake from the grandstand
at 9 o'clock. Monday night will be
the first night for the fireworks pro¬
gram. and an unusually good showing
Is being planned. The fireworks will
be over In plenty of time for the kid¬
dles to get home early, if necessary.
Every railroad leading Into Atlanta
will put on greatly reduced rates for ,
the Fair in October, and there will be .
special day rates along with another
special excursion rate for more than
one day.

get those things in temperate meas
ure, without extremes either way,
and with them other desires that are
not to be found in Florida,
| “Here's a thought of Georgia
( worthy of comparison with either
Florida or California: In this state is] 1
to be found the semi-tropical scenery,
the climate, the nature beauty of a
semi-tropical country, and in the
same state the mountains with their >
wilderness of mountain beauty and
mountain climate. The lowlands and
water front on one side, the moun
tain peaks—not just hills—and for
ests on the other. Alabama has a lit
tie of it as Georgia has; there is
, just a touch of it in lower South Car¬
olina as Georgia has, but no other
] everything state offers that to Georgia the world’s does. peoples Miss
issippi has not what Georgia has,
but she has what Louisiana affords. *
So on the comparisons might be ear
r ‘ e d out. Not one of the great t\es
tern states offers everything like
Georgia does, nor can California of
fer 8 people everything life could de
sire as Georgia can.
“Get the backwash from Florida ? j
Yes, I would say Georgia will get it;
already is beginning to get it; but
what Georgia really is going to get,
and would get much more of did this
great moving human stream which is
flowing Southward know of what j
Georgia has for them, is the settie
ment in Georgia of thousands of those
people because Georgia is almost the
Utopia they are looking for.”
