. Ho told how other cities had tak
en Its ravines and usoloss nooks
and corners and made beautiful
parks of them. These pnrks in
creased land values of ndjolnlng
pronorty and In most Instances
these plots were given by the own
ers for the great benefit to other
property. Ho said he found many
such* ravines in Athens that should
be given for small parks, to bo
beautified by the city.
“You- cannot got v.ery far with
parks if yuo have to buy the land.”
ho said. “It should be given.”
He stfted that three things
should bo considered in planning
pnrks. first, recreation. Second,
transportation nnd third, beauty
They should afford a plnco to re
lax and play, should bo easily ac
cessible nnd should be beautified.
SHOULD HAVE
CITY PLANNING
He advocated a city planning
system, a tree zoning system nnd
city transportation system that
would relieve much of the growing
traffic problem. One thought left in
this connection was that tourists
who only pass through a city
should bo routed around it and
not through the crowded thorough-
farea.
He referred to the view from
tho hill beyond Mitchell’s bridge
on the Bogart road os being tho
prettiest he saw oil 8 ride from
here to Atlanta. He nlso hald the
approach to Stone Mountain, when
the mountain of granite first comes
into view. Is a striking one. “These
tUewr* should be pfjaerved nnd
made more beautiful by care and
planning” he stated.
Several questions were directed
nt Mr. Manning when he completed
his talk and short tnlks wore nl«o
made by local people interested in
parks and playgrrunds.

NEED UNIFORM
REGULATIONS
Representatives of the state de

Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, Minne
sota, Iowa, Missouri, Kentucky,
Kansas, Nebraska and North and
South Dakota will be Invited. It is
hoped to have the conference Just
prior to the meeting of secretaries
of state at Asheville, N. C., Sep
tember 13, 14, 15.
There is a real need, according
t» the officials sponsoring the con
ference. for uniform law’s of driv
ing to lessen the death rate. One
way suggested is to nre vent a man
who never has handled a car be
fore from buying a machine and
promptly setting forth as if he
w’ere an exporiepced driver. This
prevalent custom “could bo pre
vented, they say, by forcing the
dealer by law to s^e that every
body to whom he sells a car Is
thoroughly instructed before he is
permitted to operate it bti the pub
lic highways.

of which the mine gets 40 cents,

St. Louis, which is on the west-
n fringe of the territory using
anthracite, has a net price per ton

the ot. Louis dealer gets only 15

MINE PRICE
SOARS
Of the quotations today, $8 to
>.35 f. o. b. mines, the coat of
production, according to the com
mission’s experts, averages $5.68.
Of this the labor cost Is $3.97.
The f. o. b. mine price in 19131
was $2.69, with the labor cost av
eraging. $1.62.
Whereas the labor cost per ton
has increased 145 per cent in 10
years, the mine sale price has In
creased slightly over 200 per cent
—from $2.69 to $8-$8.35.
The proportionate cost of labor
as represented in the mine sale
price has decreased from 61.C per
cent to 59.6 per cent.
In considering the increase of
labor costs, however, the commis
sion emphasizes two important
points.
Thaf onlv a part of the in
creased cost of production per ton
is due to increased wage scales, a
part being attributable to chnaged
physical conditions in the mines,
such as mining of scams which
formerly were considered too poor
to work, etc.
2. That the purchasing power
of the dollar in 1923 is about 70
per cent less than in 1913.
