HIE
MANY AUTO OWNERS
FINDING TIRES ARE
UNFIT FOR SUMMER
Thousands of automobile owners
the country over are finding that
their tires are unfit for the heat of
summer driving conditions as a re
sult of a check-up being made by
tire dealers the country over.
“In most cases, according to re
ports at *he Akron offices of the
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., car
owners, themselves had not realized
that their tire equipment war in
ueeu rc| iacemer.t,” declared Mr. W.
A. Payne, local tire dealer.
“Our method of making an abso
lute check of the tire’s tread condi
tions is by showing the customer an
inked foot-print of the tire, made by
applying an inking medium to the
tread and then running the tire over
a white sheet of paper. Unmistak
able evidence that tires either do or
do not have a safe margin of tread
and traction is plainly shown.”
In many cities in the country local
authorities have welcomed the tire
check-up that is being made in their
areas, because they realize that it
helps to reduce the number of acci
dents which are in the making when
cars with tires in need of replace
ment are driven on the streets and
highways.
“It puts a little different slant on
your efforts when you feel that you
are really doing something that’ is
constructive and may help prevent
accidents,” Mr. Payne declared, “and
I am sure that when the plan of
checking tires before the accident
happens is understood by the car
owners of a community generally,
they will feel the same way about
the procedure.’’
The first open cotton bolls of the
1935 season were brought to Quit-
man Friday by H. N. Roberts, who
found open cotton on his farm July
3. He says he will be able to pick a
bale by July 15. He stated that he
had 11 acres of cotton planted on
March 20 and that no rain has fal
len on his farm since May 20.
R. A. Ferguson, president of the
Georgia Power and Light Company
of Valdosta, announced a ra*e re
duction effective July 1, of approxi
mately 14 per cent on current for
power purposes. The reduction is ex
tended to more than 30 South Geor
gia towns and communities served
by the .company.
Washington, July 9.—Members 0 f
the Georgia congressional delega. ,,n
land plans Tuesday night to confer
personally with President Roosevelt
in an effort to bring about a S a is-
factory settlement of the GeoVma
highway controversy.
Meanwhile, Thomas H. MacDonald
federal roads bureau chief, lei iTne
known he considered the next move
to release Georgia’s impounded jjy.
000,000 of federal road funds was up
to Governor Talmadge and his high-
way board.
It was not known how many of the
Georgia delegation would take their
views to the White House, but it was
understood President Roosevelt
would hear as many as wished to
talk to him.
MacDonald already has discussed
the Georgia controversy with Mr.
Roosevelt, ar.d it has been reported
the government wus contemplating
disregarding the Georgia board in
building roads with federal money in
the sta.e by dealing directly with
counties and cities.
A letter from McDonald to Repre
sentative Cox (D. Ga.) indicated,
however, the government might
stand fast i n its previously an
nounced intention to withhold Geor
gia’s millions entirely until the state
road engineering personnel was re-
ramped in accordance with the ef
ficiency mandate issued by Secretary
Wallace.
The road bureau chief wrote Cox
that “until there is evidence of a
willingness on the part of the gov
ernor or the highway board to meet
the situation which has been created
not by the bureau but by the state,
it would be wholly useless to hold a
conference.”
Regulations soon to be promulgat
ed for the $400,000,000 national high
way program were expected to give
Wallace, with jurisdiction over the
roads bureau the power to deal with
counties and cities where states have
insatisifaactory road building or
ganizations.
It was not certain, however, such
a course would be pursued immedi
ately in Georgia where the secretary
already has declared conditions are
unsatisfactory. Senator George,' Cox
and other members of the Georgia
delegation have protested against any
use of the highway minnions except
through the state board
“Our quail shooting friends are
unanimous and very enthusiastic in
their reports that there are more
quail pairing off this year than any
year for the past five or six,” says
Z. D. Cravey, state game and fish
commissioner.
Fred Carter of Macon, city circu
lation manager of The Macon Eve

Macon street when his car was
struck by another driven by Lonnie
McDaniels, 36, who was arrested by
police on a charge of loitering.
Raymond Von Tobel, for more
than 20 years principal of Ballard
Normal school, Macon, died Tuesday
night in a hospital in Randolph, Ver
mont, from injuries suffered in an
automobile truck crash near Bethel,
Vermont. Mrs. Von Tobel and their
only child, Harriet, suffered minor
injuries as did Miss Kathleen Cook
of Soperton, Ga. Mr. and Mrs. Von
Tobel and the two girls left Macon
in May when the school closed and
went to Terryville, Conn,, to spend
the vacation period at their summer
home there.
