The Hot and Dry Summer Months Death to Mahy | Perennials, Bowden of College Asserts BY ROY A. BOWDEN | Manager, College of Agriculture ( Greenhouses | Any of us who have tried to dis-‘ xurl} ground which has not been | cultivated, have found that right' now it is almost impossible to use a shovel or hoe, This goes m; show just how hard the g‘roundi can become after even a short pe- | riod of hot and dry weather, if a/ mulch of some description has not been used. ' More perennials are lost in Geor gia each year during the hot aml’ dry summer months, than are lost during the winters. Much of thel loss of perennial plants during the summer months is a matter of moisture deficiency. Much of the loss of perennial plants during the‘ summer months is a matter of! moisture deficiency. Much of the moisture may be conserved by the use of organic and of dry mulches. For these reasons it is my firm .conviction that many of us may save many of our perennials by the tuge during May, of a straw, leaf, or leaf mold nrch on the groundi under perennial plants. | Dahlias require plenty of mois ture. they must never be allowed to wilt. When dahlias wilt, there is a more or less permanent retar ‘dation of flower bud development, which will result in a reduction in the size of flowers. This means that some convenient method of irrigating the dahlia plants must be provided. Perhaps the easiest method is to use the trench system of irrigation. Gladiolas are another cut flower group which will require irrigation if the best results are -expected. The gladiolas will soon be needing that extra stimulation.of an ap plication of fertilizer. This needs to be applied before flower buds begin to appear. Ferhaps the best fertilizer formula to use for this application will be one which ana lyses 10-6-8. In passing the homes of many Geneva Statesm:t—l:fike U. S. Politicians Plan Their Moves in Hotel Room Parleys NOTE: The Banner-Herald of fers an unusual cable story by Morris Gilbert, NEA Service Euro pean correspondent, who takes you behind the scenes of the world Disarmament Conference, and shows you how it functions. By MORRIS GILBERT GENEVA, — (Special Cable) — ‘While frock-coated statesmen from 60 nations make weighty speeches in the dignified deliberations of the Disarmament Conference now in session here, the real fate of the future peace of the world is being charted in the wholly infor mal discussions of a half dozen men, gathered around a table in a smoke-filled hotel room at mid night. These half dozen men are the spokesmen of the dominant pow ers, and they meet unofficially | and without ceremony. They talk.| Pretty soon orders go out to “the boys.” Next day, on the floor of the conference, the big issues are ‘handled smoothly—as they were planned in the hotel room con ference the night before. And if the hotel gatherings result in no definite decisions, it will be re flected in the disagreements of the ‘delegates whose formal statements are cabled around the world. | In this respect, the Disarmament [Conference is like a political con lvention in any American city. Ge neva might be Chicago, and the fact that the smoke-filled hotel room isn’'t an American monopoly, but international, makes matters much easier for pipe-smoking Nor man Davis, the American repre sentative who is a leader in the hotel-room sessions. . a - - & S St Davis Feels at Home Davis, astute Tennesseean, whose task is to put President Roosevelt's {important new peace policies be ‘x‘ore the world, is very much at home in this atmosphere. He has “all the qualifications of the best type of American politician—quiet courtesy, reasonableness, and a |level head for facts. ‘ : Add to these patience and per | sistence, and yow get the combina tion that makes Davis an out standing figare on this grim bat | tlefield of international rivalries, | Gieneva goes to bed early, but '{late hours are kept on the broad | boulevard along the lake, wkat2 | the delegations are living. Limou-l‘ | sines with the flags of any one of ia dozen nations snapping on the | radiators purr past at almost any ‘hour of the night. They are carry | ing worried diplomats back and forth from mysterious meetings. Communication among the chief | delegations is easy. The British are at the Hotel Beau Rivage, the Germans at the Carlton Park. The Japanese live at the Hotel Metro pole. The Russians are stopping at the Pension Anglais, which translated means “Dwelling: of the English.” The three other impor tant delegations — those of the il’nited States, France and Ttaly— are quartered at the Hotel des Bergues Hov+ the Show Is Run The rest of the delegations do not count for much The Afghan delegate is prominent on the floor of the conference because the name of his country begins witl |the first letter of the alphabet. But Sir John Simon, leading dele i gate of the British Empire, makes | | his decigions for him. i ! Same of the Balkan delegations look pretty hig on the floor, But | people in Northeast Georgia the 'in(-nnsistvnr.\' of many of these %’honum is foreefully impressed up on me. The inconsistency to which {I refer is the contrast between the house proper and its furnishings and the yard and grounds which :surrmmd s 0 many of these homes. ‘ln recent vears, the garden club 'movement sponsored by the State i(.‘ul]ego of Agriculture have taken the first steps towards a sensible point of view in regarg to the home grounds, } The foundations of an adequate ltr’eatment of home grounds con gists in three parts, first, a good }luwn; second, welj planned shrub bery; and third, the color and lhrightness which is achieved through the use of annual peren nial flowering plants. ) At this sesaon of the year it is unwise to think of the planting or rearranging of shrubs except by the most experienced of profes sional landscape architetes, It is really too late to make permanent lawns. However, the lawn ques tion is nct hopeless now. In fact very satisfactory lawns may be gecured by planting rye grass at intervals of two or three months during the summer, provided it is possible to supply water in suffi cient quantities. Perennial flowering’ plants should be planted in the fall. The season for annual plants is in full swing. 'At this time, bare rooted, non-pot ted plants are almost impossible. Annual plants should be pot grown for success from thig date forward. In fact many people are replacing mnow the bhare-rooted, non-potted plants which they set out during April, with healthy pot grown specimens. l Do not conider that one’s yard| is completely planted hy the set ting out of one . dozen petunia plants which probably did not cost as much as one bottle of furniture polish. eet SRR e L another”lawyer with a white manel like Speaker Rainey of the Ameri- | can House of Representatives—| swings the Little Entente. I Add to these Pompeo Alogi of Ttaly and Rudolph Nadolny of Ger-! many, and maybe Dr. Tdward Benes of Czecho-Slovakia, and you ‘have the roster of the men who }are really running the conference and who will come to grips in Ge -Ineva's smoke-filled hotel rooms some night soon. ' And as the world peace drama rolls toward this climax with the United States in the forefront, the nationg with their conflicting am bitions, fears and hatreds are per haps nearer to reconciling their differences than ever before. Ac tion seems closer at hand. £ Open to the Public The formal conference itself looks something like this— - Sixty patriots from 60 counties. Four or five expert and patriotie advigsers for each. A permanent staff of statisticians, secretaries, librarians, translators and messen gers. Two hundred reporters from all over the world. A sprinkling of tourists. ~ The conferénce meets in 4 med ern building made mostly of win ‘dows—the disarmament factory. Its unadorned auditorium seats a thousand. Its whole lake side wall is of glass, and the press and pub lic in the balcony at the rear can see Mount Blane and snow-cover ed mountains heévond. I There is a big lobby for dele gates and the press behind the au ditorium, and an efficeint press room bhehind that. To carry the picture further, there’s an old ladies’ home across the street, and small hoys are fishing in the lake To the right Geneva dozés in summer heat while its principal industry—world peace—is doing business.

The head of the world’s largest private bank leans forward in his ceat ‘to catch every syllable of the testimony being given at the senate inquiry into his firm’s dealings in finance. WASHINGTON,—Mr. J, P. Mor gan, who is commonly regarded as‘ chief power behind the American ‘scene and who doesn’t pay any income tax, was just like a jolly gruff old “Papa Bear” out of a fairy tale book, Pulled from his cave by the ‘Senate banking committee and‘ exposed to public view for nearly the first time, this almost legen—‘ dary figure‘ of international fin ance appeared not as a sinster ogroi but as a big, bulky, merry old gentleman who didn’t know that his famous firm had shown a loss of $21,000,000 almost over night. His 19 partners call him “Jack” —except for the younger ‘ones. The tradition that Morgan was a shy, retiring fellow who would shiver and cringe in the limelight was blown higher than a kite as ihe grinned, chuckled and some ftimes joked with the committee Imembers and the numerous Mor igan partners who fanked him. !You'd have thought he wished the | Senate had one of these Morgan in investigations every week. “Trader’s Eyes” He towers when he stands and must weigh nearly 250 pounds, His evebrows are .black and bushy, contrasting with light gray slight ly walrushish mustache : and the hair which surrounds a huge bald pate on his massive head. His nose is a splendid specimen of physical development. He has wide, squinting eyes with ]small pupils. If it weren’t for = e iDA RS T T e those eyves he could don a white apron and play admirably the] part of a German butchér o bartender. : | whrader's eyes,” whispered a | celebrated Jewish lawyer, “Hei looks like one of our fellows.” | No frock coat for Morgan.

But }he warmed up and eventually be lcame chummy with everyone near | by, including senators, The slight-l _{est pretext caused his great face : to fold up into huge wrinkles of | merriment. By the.end of the day. |he was even shaking hands as 1f in delight—with utter strangers " who greeted him as he was ush-‘ | {ered from the committee room. | He aian’t forget himself to the ' |point of making any bad slips. But {his only sign of perturbation on? ithe- first day of the examination f{ was when, as f{fommittee Coun-. t |sel Ferdinand Pecora was pressing r ithe issue of what he did and didn’t s| know about the House of Mor elgan’s income tax returns, he waved his hands fretfully as if fighting off mosquitoes and ex lclaimed. resentfully: “I don’t want to discuss it,” He has a slight touch of British accent, which may nave come from eight years of living in Englind, { It was Morgan who kept urging that his office manager pe called to testify about the income tax returns—until he finally had his !\\':\_v. Then he crouched forward, right behind the witness, so as not to miss a word of the story, which included an explanation of the fact that Morgan partners haven’ been paying income taxes, During frequent committee bick erings he would turn to some of his partners for a brief huddle over something that must have ibeen funny because you could see four of five partners all grinning at once. Later, however, one of the part ners—JyTthomas W. Lamont—re vealed that Mr. Morgan had been “shocked” by some of the income tax insinuations.

MRS BIRCHMORE M By ELIZABETH ALLGOOD BIRCHMORE | When the curtain rose for the Ifirst‘ act of “The Path Across the Hill,” a gasp of pleasure was lht'ui‘(l from the audience which | packed Mell auditorium Friday Inight to. see the Senior High school play. The stage setting was unusual in color combination and in attractiveness of interior design and arrangement of furniture. At once the attention of the house was whole-heartedly: given to the stage, and from the entrance of Zuzu, the cook, to the final cur tain, the interest remained in a high level. While the plot was fairly obvi ous, the excellent characteriza-. ‘tion and the humor and pathos of the situations made a strong appeal, The humor was furnished by Zuzu, her “man” Salamander Alexander John Henry Jones; Lu tie, and Walter Conrad, Ruth Conrad’s devotion to her Grandpa Conrad causes her to refuse to fleave him to marry her fiange, Dr. Jimmy Red, a young man with ambition, who wanted to take her to the city. The ambitious Jimmy promptly = jilts her and marries her ‘wealthy cousin, Flo Gray, from the city. 'The plot is complicated by the appearance of Robert Post and his denunciation of Grandpa as a bank embezzler who stole $50,000 from bis father‘s} bank and caused his parents to die in poverty. To save Ruth, Grand ‘pa is forced to reveal his secret: It was Ruth's father who commit ted the crime and he had merely acted to shield his grandehildren. Ruth never knew this. The out come is that Jimmy and Flo are calling each other names after a week of marriage, that Grandpa marries Grandma Davis, and that ‘Ruth becomes engaged to Robhert ‘Post. As Zuzu said,” “I sho’ did start somethin® when I brought home my man!"” v Grace Winston as Ruth, and Richard Joel as Grandpa, played thé most difficult and sustained roles. Kach had excellent insight into the character represented.. ‘Ruth was throughout the play a lovely, well-poised, sympathetic, patient and strong young woman. |.She caught and held the sympathy of the audience in her as the cen tral character. Richard Joel play ed a very difficult role of an old man, but he did it with unusual ability and consistentey, maintain ing to perfection the stooped pos ture, slow walk, and nervous man nerisms of an old person. 1 Zuzu and Salamander, played by Hazel Loyd and Peter Crawford, portrayed very truly the manner isms of the colored race in their interpretation of the roles. These characters, with Lutie and Wal ter kept the audience laughing and applaudin™ at their every ap pearance. Florence Jackson as Lutie and Tom Abney as Walter, the typical boy and girl in their early teens, were SO natural as to be delightful in every scene, Julia Price as Grandma Davis made such a dear little old lady that the audience loved her from her first appearance. Roy Cooper played the difficult role of Rcbert Post, who planned to revenge his parents’ death very well, Kathryn Cook, the flapperish Flo, was one of the slangy modern types with plenty of zest and pep. Julian Price played the role of the ava vicious young doctor with clear ! delineation of character. His act ing in the third act was especially good. The membership of the senior class participating by acting or by serving én committees and the ‘tea(rhers assisting, are to be con gratulated on producing a play ut terly devoid of the usual marks of amateurism. No groping for lines, loss of character, or stage con sciousness were apparent. The ‘play went off smoothly and rap-l idly, and the lines were handled by the cast as if by seasoned vet-] ‘erans. The roles were excellently cast by three members of the faculty, Misses Grace Anderson, Frances Moore and Dolores Artau. lach player was clearly capacitated to enact the role given him. . Too much praise can not bé given to the directors, Misses " Ruby and Martha Anderson, who, with the cooperation of all con- | cerned, achieved such wonderful | results. The splendid High school | orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Dottery, 2iso added much to the entertaintaent by playving be tween acts. e {NEGROES TO CIVE <« SINGING CONTEST' A singing contest will be given by the Male chorus at the Ebe nezer Baptist church, corner of { Broad and Newton streets, Friday night at 8:30 o'clock. Special| seats will be reserved for white | patrens. Admission price of 10}, el S S s A James L. Cartledge Gives Platform | On Which He Seeks Congress Seat . With a background of citizen- | ship and a record of public ser- |’ vice, acknowledged and approved | in a large measure by the citizens of Augusta. and Richmond county, 1 am offering my candidacy to the voters of the Tenth Congres sional district to succeed the late Congressman Brand. My term of three ‘years in the| City Council-—1904 to 1907—is a ! matter of record, of which I am not ashamed. Two terms in the General Assembly of the State of Georgia, viz., the 1931 and 1933 sessions, it was my privilege to cooperate in the reorganization and consolidation of the state gov ernment under the administration of Governor Russell in 1931. One hundred and two bureaus, com missions and departments weére consolidated and reduced to seven teen, effecting great economy and eliminating duplication and waste in the admin'stration of state af fairs. In the 1933 session, recently con cluded, it was a great pleasure for me to serve and cooperate with the program of , Governor Tal madge. The saving of some three million dollars on the cost of au tomobile tags was effected through an executive order reducing the high “price of tags to a uniform $3.00 basis. A majority of the Legislature standing by the Gov ernor’'s proyram made this reauc tion of the people’s taxes by the Governor possible. The Governor's program to - effect economies in other departments and eliminate Iwaste had my heartiest coopera tion. “An appropriation bill was passed in spite of the worst depression in our history . The Governor was authorized in this measure to re duce appropriations in accordance with the revenue ‘and income of the tax laws, so that no deficit ‘would be created. No new taxes were imposed and it is possible ito operate the state government without the necessity of an extra ’ordinary session of the Legislature js the Governor's aim and was‘i the desire of the General Assem bly in passing this measure. ' Liberal provision was made for education in the state, amounting ‘to five and a half million dollars for the common schools and a million and a half for the univer sity system—a total of seven mil lion dollars in round figures. This sum constitutes about two-thirds of the total revenue of this state, outside of allocated funds for highways and Confederate pen sions. It is stated that the moneys appropriated and spent for educa~- tion in Georgia, the common lschools and university system, in 1931, and appropriated in 1933 is the most liberal that the state has ever made to the cause of education. I was in the fullest accord with the liberal provision for education, because I am con vinced that an enduring democ racy requires an educated and in telligent citizenship. The = state should control and support oaur educational system without Fed eral aid or interference. Gives Platform With this brief reference to my past record, I submit the follow ing platform and reasons upon which I appeal for the votes and support of the people of the Tenth District: 1. Full and complete support of the National Democratic Plat form. 9. The Federal law should guar antee all bank deposits. State banks should not be secondary institutions, but should have the same protecion under the law anl the Federal Reserve System as the National banks have. Commercial banking should be divorced from pawnshop practices and invest ment brokerage business. 3. The creation and control of money is a government function and should mot be delegated to banks of any sort, private or pub lic banks. The inflation of the currency should be sufficient to meet the demands of legitimate business controlled by law in suf ficient volume to stabilize com modity prices and the value of the dollar on a reasonable and sound basis. 4. T am in full accord with the recently adopted Farm Bill, de gsigned to benefit the farmer and agricultural classes of our peopie. Its praovisions should be adminis tered so as to guarantee the far mers of the nation a reasonable profit above the cost ¢f production on products of every sort, cotton, corn, wheat, livestock, cattle, hogs and all other products of the agricultural and farming in dustry. 5. The cost of government— IState and National—should be borne by those most able to carry | the burden. It should be placed upon incomes, estate taxes, sur taxes and upon tiariffs on luxuries. Sales tax of every sort are iniqui tous, unfair and unjust, and should not be imposed upon or tolerated by the people. Oppose Pension Cut 6. The wholesale method of slashing the benefits and pensions of all war veterans is entirely un !w;arranted and utterly unjustified |as an economic measuré, The au ‘tocratic cutting down of the small pensioners who receive less thani SIOO per month from the govern ment for veterans’ service in past wars is a false and disastrous economic measure. Especially is this true when a new so-called conservation army of young men are being enlisted into camps as ;puhlic expense, when old. and young men are being cut off froml %gnvernment help and - pensions who rendered service and wers ‘enlisted when the nation faced the Lmenace- of war and invasion. A ‘conservation army to aid the un employed at government expense should not be confined to young .{:«:?‘vécé. 5?9“1@»;;?’1’3?‘-’;? & ngy RIS SUNDAY, MAY 28 1933,| —\ for themselves or their dependent families. The cut and econom: )t veterans' benefits should, he con fined to a material scale down of those pensioners who receive above SIOO per month., (g age pensions. should be provideq by the state in cooperation with the 7. The development of the Sa vannah river channel shal have |my fullest and heartiest support . 1 helieve inland waterways ape useful and necessary in guaray. teeing lower freight rates for the people through adjusted anq fajp competition with the railroads 8.

This will guarantee the lowering of electric light and Power rateg to the people of the entire South ern and southeastern group gs states, giving them use of elec tric energy for commercial, ndys. trial and domestic purposes gt less than half the cost noy paid under the development .ng ex ploitation of private companies. 9. Holding companies and mul. tiplying same, in banking, raj). roads and public utilities should be discouraged and outlaweq or stringently controlled by Federg] authority. The Insull debacle and bankruptey destroying the invest. ‘ment of millions of investors and robbing them of their money ang substance is a crime against the people of the nation, a reproach upon our statesmanship and the administration of law. Industry and Labor 10. Industry should cooperate with labor, and a scientific ar. rangement should be developed under the law. The program out. lined by the Roosvelt administra. tion to discourage long hours of work and _establish a more just and fair return. in wages to the workers who produce the goods required by our entire economic system is absolutely necessary, There should- be the fullest coop ‘eration to this end by the man agement and the workers, The in sane method of competition and profiteering by Big Business, who operate and control the important industries of the country, should be regulated and changed by a gradual preocess of understanding and agreement between the work ers and the management, so as to .give a fuller and fairer share of ‘the proceeds of improved machin ery and inventions to the work ers and producers. . 11. The R. F. C. measure was forced through the Congress, It was a ruthless coercion on the part of the bankers who threat ened to wreck the savings banks and ‘insurance companies and bring ruin on the country unless it was passed. It is a million aire's .dole! And you can't get away from that, it is a subsidy for broken bankers, a subversion for .bankrupt institutions, a re ward for reckless and unscrupu lous bond-pluggers. It is a misers abl make-shift. It weakens Am erican morale and manhood an destroys the = vital independent spirit of the people. It should be speedily abolished, The foregoing are some of th reasons upon which I appeal t the comimon sense and good judg ment of the eitizenship of the Tenth Congressional District for their support in the present rac for the Congress.
