Betrayed Or Betrayer
h By BRUCE CATTON
When Leonor F. Loree jumped up in meeting,
waved a S2O bill and declared that the ending of
the gold standard was a henious violation of trust,
he started a lot oI peopis thinking along lines he
hadn’t intended.
His point, of courgk, was simpie enough. He had
fA“his hand a S2O bill. When it went into circula
tion it was worth S2O in gold; today it is not; hence
the government has done something horrible.
IBut the spectacle of this Wall street man beating
his breast is nothing less than grotesque when you
put it up against its proper background.
. Past of that background is the farm belt.
~ In the farm belt there are a lot of farmers jump
ing up in meeting and waving bits of paper—mort
ages, which were contracted when it took one
m%t wheat to buy a dollar and which must be
paid when it takes two bushels to buy a dollar.
The framers have been the victims of a betrayal
g@ as cruel as that which harrows the soul of
M .';;l'gree—-crueller, perhaps, for no one supposes
that Mr. Loree is in danger of losing his honde
and his bread and butter.
“Furthermore, the petrayal that came to them
came while the dollar was firmly anchored to gold.
They were undone by “sound money’’—money which
for _"él_g\lts soundness, was worth one thing when
they berrowed it and another when they had to pay
it back:
Their demands for relief are just as valid as Mr.
Loree’s—more. so, perhaps, for our departure from
gold..has not brought the well-fed Mr. Loree into
danger of hunger from the loss of everything he
owns. i
i ,-I:d that isn’t all there is to this background,
: er.
«is hardly the psychological moment for a
‘Wall ‘sfreet man to get up on his hind legs and talk
about “a violation of trust.”
“Thepe are a good many Americans today who
possess beautiful pieces of paper, for which they
'hfd Wall street good money. Wall street pledged
its. faith that these bits of paper could be re
deemed at the price that was paid for them, and
that 'phey would bear interest steadily until the mo
‘ment of redemption came.
??{vfi\it’“"today ybu can buy lots of those pieces ot
paper for a nickel on the dollar. There are many
more’ thut aren’'t worth even that.
2lt we are going to wave pieces of paper and yell
about betrayals, let's start with farm mortgages
and’"Wall street bonds. After all, Mr. Loree's S2O
bill will still buy quite a few groceries.
The Public Works Administration’s $135,000,000
loan to the railroads for new construction and new
equipment well may turn out to be one of the big
gest factors in bringing about industrial recovery.
"To begin with, §51,000,000 goes directly to the
steel industry. An order of that size cannot fail to
‘bring that industry a strong revival; and it is
axfomatic that a flourishing steel industry means
good business in many other lines as well.
~Furthermore, the new construction which the loan
makes possible will affect a number of industries.
v"&:noans the re-employment of a great many idle
‘men—=2o,ooo within a month, according to one esti
mate.
:—‘-"“alk’ll in all, the loan ought to have an exceedingly
‘.‘of‘d-eflect on general industrial recovery.
~ If you ever wonder just what the Russian experi
ment is going to look like 20 years from now, you
m@fht be interested to learn that a golf course is
being built in Moscow.
Mo begin with, Moscow never before has had a
golf course. And in the second place, Communist
writers have united in calling golf “a hopelessly
bourgeois game’—a criticism which seems entirely
Justified.
Somehow, it is a little hard to imagine earnest
Communists getting a kick out of golf. It just nat
urally isn't a game that promotes class conscious
ness. It doesn’'t belong in the Russian picture at all.
The aura of rugged individualism hangs over it.
If Soviet Russia goes in for golf, it is offering the
capitalistic world a pretty fair-sized opening. A
golf-playing Communist is half converted.

ADVANCE GUARD OF CROOKS
The highways from the east and west
ern sections of the country present a cara
van of aill types of crooks and those who
are afflicted with the wanderlust. In At
lanta, it is reported by the secret service
agents of the government, that a consider
able scattering, of worthless money has
bheen detected. In south Georgia, especial
‘l'y, in and around Brunswick and Savan
nah, the reports of the increasing number
of short-change and bad check artists are
operating successfully. There is a certain
number of this type of criminals who
make annual visits to Florida for the win
ter, but it is said that the number of such
characters this year has shown a consider
able increase. :
So far there have been few stopping
over in Athens. These people seem to give
this city the go-by for some reason or
other, and it is hoped that they will con
tinue the practice of avoiding Athens
when on their route to a warm section of
'the south. Of course, among ‘this wander
ing class, there are men and women, who
la.e harmless and are hitch-hiking for self
preservation, seeking work, food and
clothing. This element should not be dealt
'with as eriminals, but to discriminate be
{tween the deserving and the undeserving,
is a problem of unusual perpdexities.
! The local officers should keep an alert
'watch for and on this class of people en
tering or passing through Athens. Break
ing into homes, stores and even the banks,
‘hesides holding up people are the chief
features of their program. Efforts should
‘be made to prevent snch occurrences, and
all such visitors here should be held to zive
a strict acconnt of their doings and their
roint of destination.
TOWNS AND CITIES STACNATE!
~ The people of a town or city who are{
dilatory in the organization and support
of a commercial organization are standing‘
in their own light and bordering on the
edge of decadence. Such organizations are
pecessities for the life of any community.
To be without a live and active body in
lwhich commercial and industrial interests
are represented, there is,little hope for
such towns or city to grow and prosper ag
they are entitled to develop. .
[ Dawson is one of the most substantiai
business towns in the state: it has a rich
‘and productive agricultural section from
which to draw business; it has an enter
prising citizenship and one of the best
weekly newspapers published in any
‘state. Terrell county, of which Dawson is
‘the county seat, is one of the largest cot
ton producing counties in the state, vet
the town is without a trade body or a Ki
wanis or Rotary club. Regretting the con
dition, which is unusual for a town of the
size of Dawson, the News, published ir
that town, says: ”
“Time was when a chamber of com
merce functioned and flourished in Daw
son, and citizens were wide awake to op
portunities for civie advancement, but
somehow interest waned and the organi
zation died. Then, too, a Kiwanis club as
sembled representative business men week
ly for the purpose of discussing and put
ting into action progressive plans, but that
met the same fate, and right now, when
there is need for real advancement, lead
ership seems entirely lacking.” .
The business men of Dawson can not af
ford to allow such a condition to continue.
The history of all towns where commercial
organizations are not supported, usually
is told by a stagnation of business and a
backwardness in growth and development.
Civie clubs are potential assets to all com
munities, but on account of limited mem
bership and without commercial features,
}such clubs are not expected to function as
do commercial organizations. However, it
a community is progressive, one of the
}first essential requirements is a Chamber
of Commerce where all civic and com
mercial interests can be represented. In
fact, such organizations are clearing
houses for all community activities, and as
such, the entire citizenship should lend
their aid and financial support in the full
est.
WHY NOT USE AMERICAN BEEF?
- Professor Gramlich, of the Nebraska
Agricultural College, has charged that the
federal government is buyving beef from
the Argentine government for feeding the
young men enlisted in the conservation
corps throughout the country. The charge
is one of seriousness and should be investi
gated. So far no notice or denial has been
made by the officials in Washington, but
a statement was made recently showing
that in 1933 there had been 9,236,000
pounds of canned beef imported as against
7,744,000 pounds'in 1932 and in 1929, the
pounds imported to this country were 29,-
785,000 which shows a decrease. However
it does seem that with the production in
this country far exceeding the consump
tion, that American beef should be given
the preference over beef raised in foreign
countries. \
It is to be hoped that the professor has
been misinformed, but without some de
nial from official sources, the charge will
stand as true until otherwise contradicted.
Those in charge of the conservation ¢ mps
have failed to affirm or deny the s&ving
of Argentine beef to the camp boys, and
unless some direct and official statement
is made, the report or charges, as made
by the Nebraska professor will remain in
'the minds of the people of the nation as
being true and a great injustice to the cat
tle growers and packers of the United
States. If the livestock industry is to be
placed on a paying basis, certainly the
government should patronize and encour-..
age home industries.

A Little of Everything,
Not Much of Anything
By HUGH ROWE
In the rotunda of the Nat
ional Bank of Athens, there
hangs a large portrait of the
late Captain James White, who
for forty-seven years served as
a director and for forty-three
years as cashier of that bank.
The portrait is the work of Mrs. |
W. H. Davis, widely known ar
tist and former Athenian. The
likeness is very life-like of Cap
tain White, and is a reminder of
one of the pioneer builders of this
city and section. Under his direc
‘tion as cashier, the bank grew to
be one of the strongest financial
institutions in the South. Conser
vative, safe and sound in banking
principles, during his life and
since his death, it has been one of
the most valuable contributions to
the growth and development of
this community. Following the
death so Captain White in 1915,
John White Morton was elected to
succeed him as cashier and later
on the death of Judge John R.
White, Mr. Morton was elected to
succeed Mr. White as president of
the bank. Mr. Morton has con
tinued the policies and principles
of safe and sound banking as orig
inated and established by his pre
decessors, which was the founda
'tion for the building of a strong
i institution which is being carried
lon by President Morton in a most
| successful manner.
Captain James White was a
man endowed with wunusual
business acumen. His far
sightedness into future condi
tions stood him well in hand
for a successful business life.
The National Bank of Athens
celebrated its fiftieth anniversarv
in 1916, at which time a most in
teresting historical. review of the
bank was published in booklet
form. Besides biographies and pic
tures of the founders of the bank,
the officers and directors as of
1916, also appeared in the booklet
which is dedicated to Captain
White in the following words:
“To James White, who for forty
eight years was identified with
the management of the National
Bank of Athens and forty-three
years was its guiding hand as
cashier, this souvenir book is af
fectionately dedicated.”
There were twenty-six origi
nal stockholders who organ
ized this bank. Among the
names of the founders of the
bank will be found men who
were builders in their day and
time.
As a reminder to the older citi
zens here, these names will cause
many to recall those who are in, a
great measure, responsible for the
Athens of today. They are: James
A. Price, John W, Nicholson,
James D. Pittard, Asaph K.
Childs, Frederick W, Lucas, James
H. Huggins, James T. Sansom,
Peter W. Hutcheson, jr., Stephen
C. Dobbs, William F., Matthews,
Rufus L. Moss, Henry Hull, Wil
liam A. Talmadge, Robert L.
Bloomfield, William P. Talma.dge.l
Jesse - Youngkin, Young L. G.
Harris, John H. Newton, Albon!
Chase, Henry L. Brittain, Thom- |
as Bishop, Edward P. Bishop,’
John White, Henry Hull, jr., Ed
ward A. Reaves, and William H. l
Hull.
Colonel H. E. Mann, of the g
military department of the ;
University of Georgia, present- i
ed a most wonderful, interest
ing and instructive picture at
the Palace theater Wednesday . |
morning. : {
The picture was made at Fort |
Riley, in Kansas, by the Grantland
Rice Sportigiht syndicate. Show
ing cross-country rides of the most |
daring type, hugiling fences and 1
other feats performed perfectly,
these equestrian acts were not
only interesting, but startling in
their execution. The players of the
polo teams were another feature of
the program that excited much in
terest, but possibly the 'best fea
ture, if there was a _“best,” was
the trained horses, one especially
trotting without traveling, but in
perfect movement. Other horses
showed unusual “horse .sense” in
the performance of what might be
termed the “impossible.” These
pictures were made at Fort Riley
training quarters, prior to the
teams entering the Olympic games.
Through the courtesy of Colonel
Mann and the management of the
Palace theater, the student body of
the R. O. T. C., members of the
faculty of the University of Geor
gla and some citizens were invited
to attend this most interesting
picture of army life.
