Sweeping reductions in domestic gas rates in 22 Georgia cities, ranginig from ‘nine to twenty per cent of the pres ent schedules and estimated to save consumers $417,220 annually, had been ordereg today, marking ‘another step in Governor Eugene Talmadge’s campaign to bring low er utility rates to Georgia. - The ‘Talmadge-appointed state Public Service commission put out the new rates in 21 cities yesterday, 'making them effective on meter readings taken on and after Feb ruary 1, 1935. Thus the lowered ' schedules will apply to gas used ‘after, January 1. ~ The commission in its order call ‘ed present rates ‘“‘excessive, unjust and unréasonable.” It estimated the saving to the consumer in 21 cities at $353,058. Savannah Already Cut Previously the rates in the other city of the 22, Savannah, had been cut 16 1-2 per cent for an estimat ed gaving of $64,162 to consumers. d;'wernor Talmadge, who return ed ito office this fall -for another ‘twob years with an overwhelming vate of confidence, appointed the ‘present commissioners after ousting the old group. He instructed the ssioners to cut utility rates d reductions already have been ade in telephone, electric, rail road freight and railroad passenger rates, - , : The gas companies opposed the reductions with the statement their operations and income did not justifv a cut at this - time. 20 Per Cent at Columbus The only 20 per cent slash was made in the Columbus rates, where gag is furnished by a company owned by the Georgia Power com pany. There the commission esti mated the annual saving would be £34,476. The greatest money saving an nounced by the commission was for Atlanta, where a cut of 10 1-2 per cent was ordered. The saving was set at $196,078. - Americus is served by the same (Continued on page four) Restraining Order Is Continued by Barrett AUGUSTA, Ga.— (P) —Federal Judge William H.

Santa Claus written by Jack Flatau to be read aloud to children, Two more stories will follow, to be climaxed with the final big story Christmas Eve. A long time ago, like we told you yesterday, all the dolls that Santa Claus made could walk and talk without any help. They were just like real people, and so were the teddie bears, and dogs ard cats that he used to make. That was a very long time ago, though, and it's been years and years ‘since they've done that. And this is why. ~ One day, along in April, when everything was busy as it could be at Santa ‘Claus’ work-shop, Santa heard a very soft knocking at the door. At first he thought maybe it was the wind, and Mrs. Clause didn’'t hear it because she was back in the kitchen fixing din ner for everybody. _ Well, when he heard it again, he Full Associated Press Service Cotton Leaders Give Voice to Industry’s Ideas ® m ¢ .—-.——s—-————— gws »‘:: 3 R e 2 e A R TS . 5 SRR LRy Beaaieto il A RRR SSR DeR R R el : : MR RS R R S R s S 3 S SO, e R @,7:;',..

Frank R. McNinch, chairman of the Federal Power commission, made this declaration, emphasiz ing that accomplishment of the aim cannot be expected for sev eral years. After Secretary Ickes , made known he is' considering an effort to find Public Works funds for proposed municipal plans in other cities besides New York, McNinch declared rates to be excessive “in most of the larger cities.” | Negotiations already have been started by Mayor Fiorello LaGuar dia looking toward a grant for the erection of a power plant for the metropolis. | Plans for Public Works financ ing of a municipal plant at Colum bus, Ohio, have received approval. Others are being discussed. If built, they would be part of the “yardstick” system whereby, ad ministration leaders say, the rates of private concerns would be measured and forced down: where they were considered too high. McNinch based his -statement about long-range rate reduction on the contention that Canadians, on the average, pay two and one fifth cents for the same amount (Continued on Page Two) see if it was anything, se he open ed the door, And what do you think he saw?

The doll was almost frozen, she was so cold, and she had on only.a very thin dress, and the train could hardly go “Chuff-chuff!” it was so cold. Of course, Santa picked both the doll and the train up and took them inside to warm them up, and Mrs. Santa fixed some nice warm soup for the doll. After awhile, she felt better and Santa asked her what was the matter. § \ “Oh, my goodness!” she said, “J just couldn’'t stay with Betty any longer.” g Santa couldn’t understand that, because he had kept a list of good boys and giris for a month before Christmas, and Betty.was one of the West girls on nis Hst.’ “Oh, = yes” the ‘doll tolg him, “she was very good before Christ- Athens, Ga., Friday, December 21, 1934 Girls High School Is Urged; By Holliday In Farewell FOURTH VICTIM OF RACIAL RIOT DIES SHELBYVILLE, Tenn— ®) —Floyd (Pat) Lawes, 28, a far mer, died in a Shelbyville hos pital today of wounds recelved Wednesduy when national guardsmen fired into a crowd around the court house while a hob was trying to storm The building for a Negro prisoner, Lawes was the fourth fatality.

Dr. Harry Emersch Fosdick, of New York, celebrated preacher, is credited with the unctuous declaration that he will never again lend moral or physical support to any kind of war, which nettles Rev. C. C. Crawt%rd, of St. Louis, to the point of enquiring: ; “What would Dr. Fosdick and others do if they were to see our country threatened by invading armies, their own wives and daughters about to be ravished by alien soldiers, and their cherished ideals of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness challenged in a concrete way by the forces of despotism?”’ ‘ Qo far as we are informed, there is no record of Dr. Fosdick: having answered this very logical question. But inasmuch as Dr. Fosdick has no copyright on these sentiments, it is possible that others who entertain sim ilar convictions may answer for him. If so, The Ban ner-Herald will very cheerfully open its cclumns, for Dr. Crawford’s question is one that has always popped into our mind whenever these periodic discussions of peace and pacifism and disarmament (ad nauseum) come up. Not that we are opposed to peace; on the contrary we regard universal peace as a consnmmation devoutly to be sought, and honestly believe that its achievement is not impossible of realization, and just as sincerely be lieve that it will never be attained through the exor tations of the professional or political pacifist. He (or she) who would destroy our defenses in the name of peace; who would wipe out patriotism and love of coun try by instilling in yonth a lack of responsibility to de fend those cherished ideals and privileges which have cost them nothing, but which they would not now be enioying if our forefathers had been cast from the same mold- as- Dr.- Fosdick; granting its advocates all sin cerity, this type of nacifism is not the road to veace. Theré can be no erduring wveace without secrrity—at least, not under world conditions as they are today. Always it has been difficult for us to understand just why there is such colossal agitation for disarmament in the most peace-loving country in the world—a country that has never engaged in a war of aggression; a conn try that asks nothing more of .its subjects in the way of military prepa redness than a modicum of defense measures with which to safeguard their own lives and possessions in event of war. Would - not. -greater .hmaf.mwa;d__,umveml peace. be attained: if the professional pacifist should transfer his or her bases of operations to such belligerant coun tries as Japan or Russia, which are armed to the teeth and still arming, and unquestionably constitute the greatest menace that confronts American peace? (Wit ness Japan’s repudiation of the naval limitation pact). We have no quarrel with him who preaches the doc trine of peace, if he is sincere, so long as he does not ask us to wipe out our agencies of defense, for, unfor tunately, certain foreign countries, not imbued with the peace-loving virtues that characterize our people, would sooner or later find excuse to take advantage of our de fenseless condition. 2 Abandonment of national defense and:adequate mili tary training because we favor and believe in peace would be just about as sensible as disbanding our police departments because we do not believe in robbery, burg lary, arson_and murder. ‘ : We maintain our public safety 'deparzm'ents not simply to apprehend those who transgress the rights of others, but also to discourage the lawless element from putting into effect its innate tendencies. ; Wouldn’t Georgia become a gangsters’ paradise if we were to proclaim to the nation the dismissal of our agen cies of public safety? ek Ve Apply the same principle, on a larger scale, to em brace the defenses of the entire country and try to imagine what would happen. As for ourselves. we are firmly convinced that until human nature, especially in the Orient, undergoes a radical change, our surest guar antee of peace is in being prepared to demand it. And if prepared, the odds are ten to one that we wont even have to demand it—it will follow as a natural conse quence. Peace! We're for it one hnndred per cent. We have it today, but to keep it will require something more robust than vocal soothing syrup.
