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.

HRIHTOISTS (Continued From Paae One) “The accidents'do not happen to licensed chauffeurs. They happen to tho unskilled drivers. The feronen will makn plans for uni form laws te. govern the licensing of automobile opOfators to see if they arej. sufficiently competent mentally to handle a motor driven vehicle. Some form of intelligence test is likely to be devPed.” NEED UNIFORM REGULATIONS Representatives of the state de partments of Illinois, Indiana, 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.

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.
