There was plenty of excitement,

Adjacent streets were crowded

Adams Given Credit
For Victory in Tilt
With Gov. Talmadge
ATLANTA, Ga.—(#)—Commis
sioner of Agriculture G. C. Adams
today can boast of an unusual ac
complishment—a. victory of a state
official against Governor Tal
madge.
Many have tried it, only to lose
in the end. Ousteq officials have
gone to the courts and lost.
The governor late yesterday ap
proved a requisition for $9,000 for
the payment of past due salaries
to agriculture department em
ployes whose checks were held up
while the commissioner and gover
nor fired away at each other over
the right of the s:;)mmissioner to
discharge State Chemist C. Rey
nolds Clark and four assistants.
Adams fired Clark and the as
sistarts by leaving their names off
the quarterly budget. The gover
nor ordered them back, refusing
to give the department any money
until they Were restored to the
payroll. Adams held his ground.
Clark and his assistants resign
ed their posts after the controver
sy began.
State Auditor Tom Wisdom said
Adams has $41,000 remaining on
his appropriation to be used this
year. The commissioner said the
third quarter budget will call for
$29,000, leaving only $12.000 for
‘the department to operate on dur
ing the last quarter.

Drivers on Strike
’ * .
Ask Public Boycott
MINNEAPOLIS —(AP)— Strik
ing truck drivers called for a con
sumers boyvcott today, as the Rev.
PFrancis Haas, federal madiator,
renewed his efforts to ' end “the
most’ involved and complicated
controversy.. I have ever encoun
tered.”
The boycott, as urged at a mass
meeting last night by William
Brown, president of the Truck
Drivers union, ‘would be levelled
against all business firms that
refuse to sign the “Haas-Dunni
gan « agreement.”
Truck owners subscribing to the
Haas-Dunnigan plan agree to pay
a specific wage and to reinstats
employes without discrimination—
terms which the Empoyers’ Advis
ory committee have rejected as de
terminedly asi the strikers have in
sisted on them.
The advisory committe, offered
settlement provided they could re
instate employes by making selec
tions from a “preferred” list to be
made up by the employers. Strike
leaders say this ignores the strik
ers’ demand for seniority rights in
re-employment.
With the military controlling the
streets, the 22-day strike moved
toward anohter climax Wednesday
when the United Statesf district
court will be asked to rule on the
legality of Governor Olson’s mar
tial rule.

WASHINGTON.—{/P)—A gigan
tic crop loan plan which® would
leave control of 1935 supplies in
the hands of farmers who grow
them is hatching in the farm ad
mitdistration.
Modeled after this year's corn
and cotton loans, the plan will
call for government loans on a
wide range of other crops. There
will be a stipulation that supplies
must be sold when prices rise to
a certain point.
Last year the government ad
vanced farmers 10 cents a pound
on stored cotton, and 45 cents a
bushel on corn sealed in cribs or
warehouses. This pegged prices at
those levels .and officials say t/e
plan was a success.
As prices advanced beyond
those levels recently farmers began
selling crops, paying off loans and
making a profit for themselves.
The farmer was continuously as
sured of at least those prices and
the government was sure of recoup
ing its investment as long.as the
price. stuyed at’ or above the loan
value. !
In the case of cotton, the plan
said it must be sold when the
price reached 15 cents. This, offi

State Labor Leader
. &
Again Flays Talmadge
For Low Wage Stand
ATLANTA — (AP) — President
J. Bid Tiller of the Georgia Feder
ation of Labor Tuesday fired an
other broadside in labor’s contro
versy with Governor Talmadge,
charging the governor's low wage
policy has been of benefit only to
“chiseling contractors.” i
Tiller's statement was occasion
ed, he said, by the governor's Dal
ton speech last week defending his
position on wages and the national
recovery program. Tiller said the
governor “again mistakes the facts
and we are forced to the conclu
‘sion that he i doing so deliberately
in an attempt to create a feeling
of prejudice between the farmers
and hte workers of Georgia.” :
Tiller said labor did not request *
a 40 cent an hour minimum wage
on highway construction but the
NRA scale of 30 cents an hour for
unskilled and 40 cents an hour for
skilled labor. 'Tiller said the 30
cents an hour secale, working 30
hours weekly as provided by the
recovery program, would give
workers only $9 a week ;
The union labor chief said “every
thinking Georgian knows that the
expenditure of these (federal high
way) funds in accordance with the
president's recovery program has
been beneficial to all classes.”
