W& have no desire to interrupt any plans which mnv have been entered into by the officers of the assocf&tion, but we cannot help but feel that the only reason for the name of General John B.

Hollbts N, " nlnli chairman of the Stone Mountain Memqrlal tsoqiatibn, through several of the states north of the Jasop .and Dixon line, shows a magnanmoUs sp rit ■ part of the people in that section of the coitn- ivards the movement inaugurated by the people y till south to build a permament memorial to the •acred memory of the Confederate dead. These peo- Dle readily responded to Mr. Randolph s appeal for lund4 and he was assured by bankers, business men and civic organizations that the people of the north would co-operate with the people of the south by rlbuting money to this wonderful memorial to lerp^tuate the “lost cause” for all time to come. If lie building of this memorial will help to restore a irotlmrly feeling between the states, and especially .ftween those who wore the blue and the Btey, then ; is worth the price regardluss of the amount The rid-war was u blessing to our nation; it brought iriu war was u wnwii , , r people together in a common cauye and for the otcction of our Country arid homes irrespective of’ section*, and our boy* in solid phalanx, hand in hand, forgetting all part differences which had occurred between their father*, carried "Old Glory" to the front and planted It on German toil and* won the greatest victory-the world has ever known for the safety of democracy and the protection of their country and homes. ... , . Our suggestion 1* that a great highway be built from Stone Mountain to Atlanta, with a sixty foot roadway on either ride and in the center a memorial park be constructed in which to place monuments to ttie heroes of the greatest struggle the world has ever knoivn and, who have gone to the great beyond ■where no sectional strife can ever arise. Would it not be appropriate to have a monument for Lee and Graitt; Davis and Lincoln and so on down the line of the great men who gave their lives for those things they believed to be right, and now in this great re union of sentiment in constructing a memorial for the Confederate dead', let us go farther and build the highway lined with memorials to both the blue and the gray and show* by-our deeds our friendship and the forgetting of all past differences, -and a ’desire for L .reunited country and a reunited citizjepship witli'no north—no south, but one great nation, the “‘uperior to all others. ” Tfctf stock market having lost part of its reliability as a weather-vane of general business conditions, you turif to the next weather-vane—movement of freight , by the railroads. For three weeks in June, latest re ported, the roads hauled over a million cars of freight 'll wjmk. It’s a record, for this time of year, never before equaled. It seems logical that business is not ordering the stuff moved by freight unless it is reas onably sure of a market for it. If correct, the winter outlook is good. Spring business, like spring weath er, is too far away to predict.
