Washington, D. C-, Feb. 21—
Florida’s heavy freezes during the
first half of the month destroyed
about 11,000,000 boxes of citrus
fruits and large amounts of win
ter vegetables, the Agriculture de
partment has estimated.
While no value was placed on
the monetary loss to Florida grow
ers, the Weather bureau previously
placed it at $50,000,000.
Losses, the department said, in
cluded: 4,500,000 boxes of mid
season oranges from a crop total
of 31,000,000 boxes; 3,500,000 boxes
of Valcencies from a total of 28,-
500,000; and 3,000,000 boves of the
35,500,000-box grapefruit crop.
About 1,000,000 bushels of Flor
ida tomatoes, the department said,
were destroyed or a little more
than 75 per cent of the total win
ter production indicated on Feb.
1. Snap beans losses were placed
at about 750,000 bushels, or near-
Jy 50 per cent of the total Florida
winter crop.
Athens, Feb. 22—The Georgia
Review, quarterly literary publica
tion of the University of Georgia,
will become a reality March 15.
The university’s first literary
magazine will make its debut after
more than nine months in the
“blueprint’’ stage.
In a pre-publication statement
concerning policy and contact of
the periodical, Dr. J. D. Wade, Edi
tor said; “The Review will attempt
id in
to be dignified, sensible anc
teresting. It will publish articles,
fiction and poetry. The chief quali
ty desired in anything the maga
zine may publish is distinction of
thought and statement, with an
aim toward wisdom and judgment
even more than toward knowledge
and information.’’
“The magazine will try to avoid
using material that is notable
chiefly because it is “shocking,”
and the quarterly will attempt to
have an appeal for all age groups”
Dr. Wade said.

Our Main Street isn’t Broadway.
But for cleanliness and neatness, it
has Broadway lashed to the mast!
(I’m sticking my neck out, so far
as those city people go, but it sure
is the truth.)
Our sidewalks all along Main
Street are swept clean each morn
ing; the store fronts are kept
neatly painted; the windows are
shiny bright; and there's grass
and flowers every place that grass
and flowers can be made to grow 1
Once when “Butch” Snyder let
the awning of his store get torn
and dirty, folks up and down tire
street just, gently nudged him till
he went out and got it repaired
and cleaned. That’s how it works
around this town of ours.
From where 1 sit, it’s a little like
the Brewers' program of Self-
Regulation. They want all taverns
selling beer to be a credit to the
city .. neat and orderly and up te
scratch. And when any tavern
lags behind, they nudge it back to
standard. Works tool

SOFT DRINK TAX
ACTION DELAYED
UNTIL MONDAY
GENERAL ® ELECTRIC
Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 25—The house
ways and means committee deferred
until Monday action on a proposed
bill to tax soft drinks in Georgia
after hearing a group of bottlers
object to the measure at “discrim
inatory and economically unsound.’
Earlier Rep. Walter Harrison of
Jenkins, claimed the suggested one
dollar a gallon levy on soft drink
syrup and additional one cent tax
on drinks costing ten cents or less
would raise between five and six
million dollars of revenue annual
ly for the state.
