This plan involves the improve ment and advancement of economic conditions in Georgia, along co-op erative lines, and a national adver tising and publicity campaign to at tract the attention of the nation to Georgia’s climate and natural beauty. This movement is a result of a campaign that C. F. Redden has been carrying on throughout the [ state to awaken Georgia to a real [ ization, that by advertising her recre ational advantages and attracting northern sportsmen and home-seek ers, she can develop her greatest source of income. In discussing Georgia’s future, Mr. Redden said: “If the citizens of Georgia could only be made to realize what golden! opportunities are available here, [ you would witness in this state with in the next ten years the greatest ex pansion in industry, population and j wealth that has ever taken place in I the South. “Georgia’s greatest need, in my opinion is to develop a spirit of state-wide cooperation and team work, and a realization that attract ing new capital, new industries and new population to Georgia is a big job and can only be done effective ly by th'e coordinated efforts and support of the business leaders of the entire state. “This is the day of dominance in advertising, not only in space and copy, but art work, brains and ex perience. “Georgia needs and deserves a dominating campaign and that can only be accomplished by state-wide team work and not by individual communities flittering away their appropriations, attempting to attract favorable national attention.” People throughout Georgia are en dorsing the movement as shown by some of the statements herewith: Thomas K. Glenn, chairman of the board, First National bank, At lanta, says, ‘Our recovery from the business depression will depend to a very large extent on our will to cooperate. That is why the commit tee of one hundred should accom plish really worthwhile results for Georgia—it will strive to develop a state-wide spirit of cooperation and that is what we need.” Colonel Samuel Tate, president Georgia Marble Co., Tate, Ga.: “Business men of Georgia must awaken to the advantages of co operation and team Work,. Other states have accomplished (tremen dous results by coordinated efforts and Georgia should profit by their experience.” W. D. Anderson, president of the Bibb Manufacturing Co., Macon, Ga.: “Attracting new wealth and new population to Georgia will ex pand our volume of trade, provide a market for the products of our [farms and orchards and increase the I prosperity of our citizens. The ■ 'Committee of One Hundred’ can [accomplish this better than individ ual groups working independent of each other.” [ W. C. Bradley, chairman of the board, Coca-Cola company; presi dent Columbus Bank & Trust Co., Columbus. Ga.: “Georgia needs such an organization enjoying the confi dence and the support of her civic and business leaders to launch an aggressive, convincing sales cam paign. telling the nation why they should come to Georgia and stress- EARLY COUNTY NEWS, BLAKELY, GEORGIA MRS.
