WASHINGTON, D. C.—Becatue
qf a close personal frlendwhlp ex.
izting between Georg'a’s senior
..senator, Senator William J. Har
ris, and President-elect Herbert
Hootst, Georgia will, perhaps be
. closer to the next administration
than perhaps any other democrat-
1c state..
While Senator Harris and Pres.
IdenUelect Hoover differ of course
lit their political views and prin-
clples, nevertheless they have
^edtTTand. still are the warmest of
. personal friends. During this
friendship Senator Harris has
found a number of. opportunities
to manifest his friendship towards
the President-elect In Tarloua and
^ sundry ways and the President,
"elect has more than once ac
knowledged the services rendered
him by the Georgia senator.
Because of the relationship ex-
lstlng between the two Senator
Harris will undoubtedly have the
ear of the new administration and
hia influence, which at present is
one cf tho strongest on the nemo-
cfratic strte, will b« greatly
strengthened.
; Georgians
that Mr. Hoover and Senator Bar.
rls came into national political
-'prominence about the same time.
.Singularly enough, their paths
*odn crossed.
Hoover was food administrator
tlons among Georgia soldiers and
aaslat them In an early return to
their homes. Mr. Hoover and
Senator Harris met in Europe and
Hoover urged the Senator to take
charge of relief work in Poland.
With consldeable regret he had to
decline because of an extra ees-
slon of Congress which was immi
nent. "
Since the war tae two men often
nave been In contact on matters
of governmental importance, and
seemingly, a mutual regard has I
characterised their association. |
Because of his experience as
director of the census and acting
secretary of commerce, pos'tions
he held before becoming chairman j
of the Federal Trade Commission.;
Senator Harris was placed on the
appropriations sub . committee
which handles all appropriat'ons
for the department of which Mr. j
Hoover became head. Senator
Harris also is a member of the
Senate Commerce Committee
wh'cb passes on nl! bills relating
to the commerce department, in- 1
clud'ng rivers and harbors and
flood control. Numerous instan-,
ces have served to indicate the
regard President-elect Hoover has ,
for the Senator. One especially
is of interest to Georgians. j

BANNER-HERALD
LETTERS FROM
THE PEOPLE
December 21, 1928.
Editor Banner-Herald:
We have had in this office re
cently. several complaints from
various individuals and organiza
tions who hold unpaid bills
against the Clarke County Fair
Association. . ,
There seems to bo a mistaken
conception that this fair was fos
tered fcy 1 tho Athens Chamber of
Commerce while, in reality, the
Chamber had nothing to do with
it in any manner. When the pro
moters of the fair first came to
Athens they solicited the assist
ance of the Chamber of Com
merce. This was denied them.
They then asked that the Agri-
I cultural Committee of the Cham,
ber assist them. This also was
refused, A little later, Mr. Mc
Carter, with the cooperation of
some of our local people and a
Mr. S. J. Porter, who acted in the
capacity of Secretary of the As
sociation. formed what they call
ed the Clrake Comity Fair Assoc
iation and undertook to put op
their fair- , .
Due to the very unsatisfactory
condition in which this Associa.
think of it the more I find myself
unable to refrain from recording
my protest.
No.odv will deny, or can deny,
that the Stone Mountain Memori
al Association, prior to Mr. Ran-
dolh’s acceptance of the Presiden
cy, baa raised no money, or cer
tninly vefy little money, and had
done no work on Stone Mountain,
although Jthe . Association hnd
been in existence seven years, and
numerous men of outstanding
prominence had occnpied the of.
f.cc of President. Neither can it
be denied that Mr. Randolph on
assuming the Presidency found
the Association more than $25,000
in debt, with $1.85 in its treasury.
Nobody will deny, or can deny,
the fact that Mr. Randolph de
voted five years to the project. 1
giving it almost the whole of his
time without compensation of any
sort, direct or indirect, and that
during his administration the
Monument was transformed from
Mrs. Uelen Plane’s magnificent
idea into an almost completed re
ality.
Recently I have read in the At
lanta newspapers a letter from
Mr. Arkwright to Mr. Willis, tlv
ruccessnr of Mr. Randolph, and
a letter from Mr. Wickersham to
Mr- Willis, both expressing the
opinion that the Monument when
finished will be far and away the
greatest asset of Atlanta and
Georgia, attracting to this State
an endless procession of visitors
from all parts of the world, for
the balance of time.
This be.ng true, and I think no-
bod- will deny that it is true,
then certainly it seems to me that
the community, by which I mean
not Atlanta alone but the State as
a whole, owes an obligation
gratitude and appreciation to the
man whose deveted and self-sac
rificing service supplied the mo
tive power to bring the enterprise
, to* its present position.
I What inducement has a man or
a woman to give public service to
any enterprise in cur State, when
so great and conspicuous a public
service as this man rendered is al
lowed to pass without notice, ig
nored and unappreciated?
Respectfully,
Lamar Rutherford Lipscomb.
