PAGE TWO HOOVER AND HARRIS PERSONAL FRIENDS .. WASHINGTON, D. C.-—Because of a close personal friendship ex isting between Georg'a’s senior _senator, Senator William J. Har ris, and President-elect Herbert Hoover, Georgia will, perhaps be closer to the next administration than perhaps any other democrat ic state. ' While Senator Harris and Pres. ident-elect Hoover differ of course in their political views and prin ciples, nevertheless they have Peen and still are the warmest of personal friends. During this friendship Senator Harris has found a number of eopportunities ‘to manifest his friendship towards ‘the President-elect in various and sundry ways and the President. “eélect has more than once ac knowledged the services rendered him by the Georgia senator. Because of the relationship ex isting between the two Senator Harris will undoubtedly have the ear of the new administration and his influence, which at present is one cf the strongest on the uemo cratic stde, will he greatly strengthened, ~ Gecrgians aiready have noted that Mr. Hoover and Senator Har .rlg came into mnational political ‘prominence about the same time. _Singularly enough, their paths soon crossed. " Hoover was food administrator under President Wilson at the time the Federal Trade Commis sion under Harris as chairman in ‘vestigated the meat packers. Cer ‘ta‘n political enemies of Hoover endeavored to influence the com mission to harshly criticize hiis dealings with the meat packers, but Cgalrman Harris frowned on the effort and let it be known un- ; mistakably that the Federal Trade | Commission did not question the efficiency of Mr. Hoover's ser vices. | Those were troubulous days for | Hoover. In h's work of supervis- } ing the food supplies in the United i States he was fought hy special interests and it is entirely proh-f able that if Cha‘rman Harris had vielded to poltical pressure and heen influenced to call Hoover to} account unneccssarily, his work would have been seriously ham pered and some of its effective- | ness destroyed. And at an eany opportunity Hoover showed h's ap preciation of the support Harris gave him. The opportunity was presented in a manner neither could have forseen. Going to a larger field of ser vice, Hoover took over TFuropean rel’ef work and devoted himself to the rehabilitation of millions ‘of those made destitute by war. Harris, too, went {0 a larger ser vice. With the outspoken favor of President Woodrow Wilson, he was overwhelming elected to the “Un‘ted States Senate in 1918.

Mr, Hoover and Senator Harr's met in Europe and | Hoover urged the Senator to take | charge of relief work in Poland. L With consideable regret he had to decline because of an extra ses sion of Congress which was immi nent. Since the war tae two men often nave been in contact on matters of governmental importance, and soemingly, a mutual regard has characterized their association. Because of his experience as director of the census and acting secretary of commerce, pos‘tions he held before becoming chairman of the Federal Trade Commission, Senator Harris was placed on the appropriations sub . committee which handles all appropriations for the department of which Mr. Hoover became head. Senator Harris also is a member of the Senate Commerce Committee which passes on all bilis relating to the commerce department, in 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. After securing an appropriat’on for establishment of a fish hatch ery to be located in Georgia and designed to supply five states the Senator’s efforts to locate the hatchery in Georgia were opposed by numerous senators who sought to secure the locat’on in other «tates. through influence with Mr. Hoover. The fact that the hatch ery was designated for Georgia is regarded as a tribute to Senator Harris’ in,gustr,v. | The past two years Senator Harpis has secured appropriations for $120,00°.000 to be used by Mr. Hoover's department and the agrionltural Department in find ing additional uses for cotton and cotton goods so as to get rid of the surplus cotton which has Jaought down the price. Secre tary Hoover and his department have cooperated fully in this worlk and have found additional uses for tens of thousands of bales of cil ton. Again, with the cooperation of Secretary Hoover, Senator Hapyris obtained an appropriation for es tablishment of the Atlanta office of the Department of Foreign and [Domestic Commerce, an office which has proved of great ser ‘v!ce to commercial enteyrprise ‘n | jeorgia and the Southeast. . Indications of President-elect | Hoover’s mnon-partisanship have | heen numerous, but in one in stance especially were the agri cultural interests in | Georgia and the South grateful to him and to |Sr-nator 11 orrig for their coopera ticn, Acting under the law, My. ]Harris, while director of the cen lsus’ had appointed from each of i(.}errgia’s *sl counties. as well as ! the other cottou grow:ug states, a | mar to ohta 1 toe @acunt of ient | ton g'nnings.

As the designat ed representative of the Senate Commerce Committee, Senator Harris conferred with the direcior of tke congus last spring and was instrumrental in bringing about helpful results at a t'me when cer tain political enemies of Hoover in Congress were trying to em barrass him in connection with the agriculture census to be tak en next year. | All of these instances, and oth ers which have occurred during tbe years both have been in pub lic service, serve to indicate the harmony whiche may be expected to prevail between the White House and Senator Harris after March 4. It is generally known that Senator Harris was closer to president Woodrow Wilson than any other person in Georgia and while the Senator will take no part in federal appointments in the state it is entirely reasonable to think that the new administra tion will not hesitate to call on him for such advice and counsel as may be desired. . As a matter of fact, ' Senator ' Harris is probably closer to Pres . ident-elect Hoover than any other democratic senator and the future probably will disclose that such a relationship augurs well for the | people of Georgia. re - ’, ~ LETTERS FROM || THE PEOPLE | ! | December 21, 1928. Lditor Banner-Herald: We have had in this office re }lcently. several complaints from ! various individuals and organiza tions who hold wunpaid Dbills against the Clarke County Fair Association. There seems to be a mistaken conception that this fair was fos tered by the 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 !ancc of the Chamber of Com ! merce. This was denied them. They then asked that the Agri | cultural Committee of the Cham. ‘ber assist them. This also was ! yefused, A little later, Mr. Mec-! | 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 scoiation. formed what they call !ed the Clrake Comrty Fair Assoc jation and undertook to put on their fair. Due to the very unsatisfactory " condition in which this Associa THE SANNER-AREALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA, tion left its affairs, we feel that it ® necessary for us to make this statement so as to avoid hav- ! ing people of this secticn form | the idea that this was a Chamvber of Commerce project. You will | assist us greatly in correcting | th.s idea if you will publish this ' letter in ycur columns in such a | position that it will be noticed by | the various papers and orgamizi- | tions throughout Northeast Geor-j gila. ! W.th best ' wishes for the Christmas Season, I am : Very truly yours, i D. D. SAUNDERS JR~ | Secretary. ! Editcr The Banner-Herald: | The late Miss Mildred Ruther-, ford, who was my aunt and for many vears my constant dempan. ion, in her last iilness charged me with the performance of two spee-| ial requests. One . was that 1! should do everything in my power| to help finish the Stone M«‘untainl Memorial, The other was that I should see to it, if no one else: d.d, that Hollins Randolph receive ! due credit for the service he had rendered the great enterprise. | Month after month has elapsed since Mr. Randolph retired from the Presidency of the Stone| Mountain Memorial Association, | vet up to this time, so far as I can ascertain, he has not received a line of editorial commendation“ !from any newspaper in Georgia,j or a resolution of,aly)reciationg from any organization in the| State, or a testimonial /of thanks| from any source whatsoever. { | It is astcnishing and incredible! ;that such a thing could happen in any community, and the more I th.nk 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- | ¢y, hada raised no money, or cer! tainly very little money, and hadl done no work on Stone Mountain, | although ihe_ Association had | been in existence seven years, and | numerous men of outstanding | prominence had occnpied the of-[ fice 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 tke project, 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. Helen Plane’s magnificent ! idea into an almost completed re~l ality. Recently 1 have read in the At-| lanta newspapers a letter from’ My, Arkwright to Mr. Willis, the successor of Mr. Randolph, and a letter from Mr. Wickersham to‘ Mr. Wiliis, hoth expressing the opinion that the Monument when finished will be far and away the greatest asset f Atlanta and Georgia, attracting to this State an endless procession of visitors from all parts of the world, for the balance of time. This being 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 ’mt Atlanta alone but the State as 'a whole, owes an obligation == Igratitude 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. - What inducement has 2 man ot a woman to give public gervice 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 ?

Oh, I don’t mean to be catty, but I think Detective Maguire wants a reallv helpful description. Her eyes are large and wide, very round, and she uses dark-brown mascara on her lashes.
