1 CATTON’S COMMENT l
; 5 \
BY BRUCE CATTON g )
" The outstanding feature of the présent-day Am
ffli'lc& seems to be the earnest effort that people are ‘
_miaking, so understand the society in which they are
Tiving. ¢ .
{ Because the last few years taught us 80 foreibly
%‘\q\at the present is the child of the past, we are also
Peginning to discover that the future will be the
ohild of today. We make certain decisions and adopt |
certain decisions and adopt certain social habits now
'~ and a decade hence, or two decades, these decis- |
jons and habits will have consequences at which we l
hardly so much as guess. B
_ Dr. 0. E. Baker, senior economist of the Depart- |
ment of Agriculture, pointed out recently that we
K about to undergo very profound changes in the
matter of population growth.
For about 25 years to come, he says, we will live
in a kind of national middle age; then our popula
gon will begin to decline, the decline will be pro
t essive—and we shall suddenly find ourselves an
old nation, facing all the problems which old age
brings to any living organism.
Now all this seems to be mixed up, in a very pe
iflhl&ar' fashion, with our habits of Ilise. For some
reason, the birth rate in the cities is lower than the
\Wth rate in rural areas. On the farms and in the
‘small towns, there are more than enough births to
@aint&ln the population level; in the cities, however,
the reverse is trife, and in our larger cities the births
even now lack $0 per cent of being sufficient to
~maintain the population permanently.
The implication, as Dr. Baker points out, is that a.{
civilization based primarily on an industrial and
commercial system in which the individual is the
‘economic unit very likely to develop a declining
_population. : §
; To be permanent, it must be based on agriculture,
%fi‘ on some other system in which the family is the
~economic unit.
~ This is very puzzling, and we probably shall need
;fiolmow a great deal more than we know now about
the laws of heredity, and of human fertility generally,
‘pefore we can fully understand it.
~ But it is a hint that our primary concern, in the
i‘m run, must be not simply to devise a smoothly
‘working economic system, but to fashion a way of
ml.t will bring a broader and fuller life to the
‘masses of people.
. When we crowd ourselves into cities and compel
Wom of people to live cramped and narrow lives,
We invite Nature to take her revenge—and Nature
%fip’t& the invitation. 'We don’t live by bread alone,
after all.
~ Those little tables of population growth are a“
;?llent warning that, unless we make our society less
artificial, and bring it back to closer contact with
the old realities of the living earth, we shall pay a
2alf;ry bitter penalty a generation or two later.
. The sensalons incident to the Senate’s munitions
investigation seem to have had their effect on the
fay side of the Atlantic. England is preparing to
name a royal commission to investigate the arms
traific in Great Britain,
- It is noteworthy that this step was forced upon a
_}t;ighlctam government by public opinion. When the
;;%-"- investigation started to make headlines
ttsh officialdom intimated that such scandalous
methods were all very well for Yankees, but that
?‘- sland could get along quite nicely without copying
L ki 2 / .
fietore long, however, the subject was Jaised in
House of Commons, and the debate there indi
f.ed‘that the masses of people in England had the
‘Bame sort of healthy curiosity about the arms traffic
J the masses of Americans had.
M ito the doings of the merchants of death. If the
So now England, like America, is going to look
“ pestigation is half as fruitful as the one in Wash
ingron, the world will be a good deal wiser when it
18 finished.

1 igures show that farm income last year rose by
)a $1,000,000,000, with farm purchasing power

f§ suspect that this program has done about all that

[ THE SPIRIT OF OPTIMISM
| Financial, industrial and commercial
‘economists are all writing and predicting
| 4 revival in business and a return of sound
| and stable conditions. These authorities
| base their diagnosis on the belief that con
{ fidence has been restored and that the
j people of America are in a better frame of
{mind. If that condition really exists, then
| there is no doubt over the early return ofi
| prosperity. |
| On the first day of this year, the New
| York Times, in an editorial advanced the
| belief that better times are here and thati
|the worst is over. The Times said, in
% part:
| “Starting with this fact of greater and‘
tempered hopefulness, we may put a‘
cheerful courage on today, first of all, be
cause we are coming through the depres
| sion with so much that is valuable in our
| past still intact. ‘Ring out the old,’ it is
{customary to say at the New Year, but it
is a safe guess at present that millions of
lour citizens would be glad to have many
old things rung back again. Old books,
old wine, old friends still hold their place
‘on the mental scale. It is not a question of
old vulgarities—the foolish worship of
wealth and money-getting as such—but
the old refinements, the old standards of
private and civie virtues, the old ways of
belief in democracy and in the institutions
'which it has devised to maintain and ex
' press itself. l
! “It is not a gracious thing to point to the
-misfortune of other peoples, but the com
parison tends to strengthen confidence in
’hoping that the future will copy fair our
past. Two countries in especial leap to
imind where a lot of old things have been
rung out with consequences that are visi
ble to all. Soviet Russia has boasted of
having found the perfect new way of life,i
but it turns out to be merely ancient ty-}
ranny written large, the individual choked
in his development, the rule of force every
where set up and never tempered by
mercy, with forms of justice that are a
mere mask for murder and ‘with ‘horrible
deeds done in secret. The old saying about
the Tsardom was that it was a form of
government made tolerable by occasional
assassinations. The new regime orders fre
quent assassinations, but makes itself
thereby only the more intolerable. In Ger
many what has happened is fully as de
pressing to the free spirit of men. All lib-|
erty is stricken down. There is no freedom
of speech or of the press. The Hitler ty
ranny is all the more hateful for working
in the dark and in secrecy. No German
knows when the blow may fall upon him,
or what the reason for it may be. The vic
tims deserve more pity than blame—ex
cept as they are blameworthy for having
permitted political forces to gain power
without stronger resistance—and there is
‘no good ground for haughtily asserting our
individual superiority to them. But the fact
‘that our country has escaped, and certain
1y will escape, offering such a spectacle to
the world is inevitably a ground of satis
faction for all Americans at this time.”
While the people throughout the nation
are hoping and expecting a return of con
fidence, and a restoration of normalcy, it
can only ¢ome about through a spirit of
‘cooperation and a determination on the
part of the people to continue their fight
‘for the supremacy over the reaction in bus
iness that spread world wide.
| TO FIGHT THE SCREW WORM
The screw worm in Georgia has grown
;and spread at an alarming rate especially,
'is this condition true as relates to south
Georgia. In this section of the state, the
‘screw worm has not advanced materially,
| but it is on its way and in middle Georgia,
|its appearance is quite evident. |
! The FERA has set aside the sum of $5,-
1000 to be used for the eradication of the
| pest in south Georgia. This money will be
used under the direction of the state ent
| mologist, the work to be commenced early
'in the spring. ‘
| Senator Goerge has prepared a bhill set
"ting up a fund of $200,000 to fight the
}pest, and will introduce it at the present
i session of congress. With this amount of
{available funds, it is believed that the pest
!can be arrested in its spread and eradi
| cated.
, The screw worm, like the boll weevil,
| was not considered seriously when it first
{made its appearance in south Georgia,
| but it soon began to spread among the cat
ltle, hogs, sheep and even with the dogs.
{ Now it is alleged that many people have
i been afflicted with its ravages. It is an
| unusual pest and one that once it gains
i a hold, it is hard to control or destroy.
l ADVERTISING OPENS THE WAY
Along with the return of better times
[it is a foregone conclusion that without
;judicious advertising in the newspapers,
business cannot be expected to revive and
lincrease in volume.
i The buying public depends upon the
inewspapers to provide the store news as
{ well as that of current events, The merch
rant who fails to present to the public the
llnews of his merchandise, will soon learn
!that his stock is a drug on the market and
|that purchasers trade where prices and
| quality prevail.
While the new year is yet young,
merchants and business men should make
j up their advertising budget and commence
early advertising campaigns. The adver
tiser never experiences dull months.
There is always trade for the merchant
who appeals to consumers through the
|newspaper. That has been demonstrated
time and again and at no time has a judi
| cious advertiser failed to get returns from
money spent for newspaper advertising.
1 175,000,000 acres of valuable farming
|{land will be abandoned within the next
generation, if methods of erosion control

A Little of Everything,
Not Much of Anything
e e
BBy HUGH ROWE |
e e
Yesterday was a sloppy day
—not enough rain to flood the
streets, but just enough to
soak in and imake it disagree
able for pedestrians.
The weather predictions for yes
terday indicated that today would
be clear and colder, but as we are
writing this “yesterday”, we hope
that the weather prophet hits it
right and that today is clear and
colder. Weather predictions, how
ever, are about as certain as the
drawing of the capital prize in a
lottery. Still, quite often, the
weather prognosticator guesses it
correctly, but without such a sys
tem of weather predictions we
would be all at sea. So many
depend on these reports for plan
ning business and pleasure trips,
to be without such information
would inconvenience the public to
a great extent.
RN
The weather ‘forecast serv
ice from Atlanta has been
greatly improved under the
new management. Quite often
the reports sent out from that
station are as near correct as
could be expected.
However, the weather is under
the control of a Greater Power
than human and for/ man to be
able to predict with any degree
of correctness, is a credit to his
capabilities for studying, research
ing and calculating. It may be
clear this hour and before the
hands on the clock have ticked
around to the next hour, the wea
ther may be all wet or just the
reverse. Keeping g correct tab on
the weather is just one thing af
ter another, there and everywhere,
the weather moves on an axis all
its own, without the direction,
consent or objection of the fore
caster.
So much for the weather.
There is nothing unusual about
its pranks. We have 'the same
kind every year, and yet we
are forever complaining.
We complain, but do very little,
if anything, about changing the
condition, If it s clear and colqd,
it remains that temperature until
the natural course of events in the
elements switches it around to
rain, snow or sleet. Certainly the
weather man cannot change it, he
can only predict what and when
the change will occur and we think
that he is doing g splendid job
when he goes that far. Oh, well,
what is the use of discussing the
weather. It is a time honored cus
tom with which to open a conver
sation. “Fine day-—ain't it,” “hot—
cold as blue blazes” and like ex
pressions we get from having the
weather in this or that state. It is
'a good point on which to start a
conversation, especially with a
stranger as it is a question on
which we all can agree upon.
If you would like to spend a
pleasant evening and be s2n
tertained by two of the nation's
greatest performers supported
by an unusually good cast, visit
the Palace theater.
“Broadway Bill”, featuring War
ner Baxter and Myrna Loy, will
be the attraction. This picture
has broken all records im Atlanta
and is still showing to capacity
houses. From a dramatic point of
view, it is one of the most :thrill
ing, yet consoling of gll dramas of
the present age. It will be here
thruogh Friday, but do not put off
seeing it. Go tonight and tell your
friends about it. It deserves all
th. _%'
ilncidentally, as gn extra and add
ed feature, there are views of the!
‘Rose Bowl football game, played|
in Pasadena, on New Year'’s Day
bhetween Alabama and Stanford in‘
which game Alabama scored 29
points to Stanford’s 13 points. |
Well, we have discussed the |
‘weather and the picture shows,
“about all ithere is to talk about
+ days with weather like the
gkimd we are having on Tues
day. g |
Maybe Wednesday will be a
bright, clear and cold day. That
is the brand of weather we pre
fer, Cold and brittle, but not
soggy. It is healthy and creates
pep and causes everyone to step
twice where they stepped once
during the warm and rainy days.
Well, we will have to take it as it
comes and all the complaining we
can do will not alter or change
the weather. We might as well
become reconciled and take it as
it comes and be satisfied.

BILL TO SAVE MONEY
ALBANY, Ga.—(®)—A bill pro
viding for hearing of divorce cases
by judges without juries, designed
to save thousands of dollars an
nually in jury fees, has been drawn
for introduction in the legislature
by A. N. Durden and George Sa
bados, representatives-elect from
Dougherty county.
The bill also provides for final
decrees within six months, or at
two terms of court, rather than the

NEW YORK.—Miss Evelyn Laye,
of the flaxen-haired curls &nd the
lavendeL eyes, is around town
again, on one of her commuting
trips between London and Holly
wood. She is ’aé nice to look at!
as ever, and just aboutfigs_uncom-i
municative. I
1 don’'t mean that the pride of
Mayfair refuses to talk. She just
~doesn't say much. Beßieves Eng-l(
lish films are beginning to
11}reaten the artistic supremacy ofi
American ones. Thinks New York'
is nicer and much friendlier than
,it was when she appeared on thei
stage here four years ago. But of
her private -life, Miss Laye has
inuthing to say. i
She never has sald a word
iabout her divorce from Sonny
' Hale in 1930, or the fact that she
!hates interviewers and press
agents, or that she likes Edna
l.'Ferber’s novels, Scotch coffee and
chocolate malted milks. She never
| has publicly chuckled over the
Iway she ran away from a girl's
school, joined a chorus, and in a
few years became a prima donia.
Such things are strictly her own
' business. So was her refusal to
allow Ziegfeld to bill her as a
star in ‘‘Bittersweet.” Until the
crities had praised her, she
wouldn’t allow her name even to
he featured. Fer intimate friends,
by the way, call her “Boo.” |
Talent Picker
Youngest discoverer of new
stage talent is Mr. Leonard Sill
man, who is now 26 and who has
been making his own way, and
the ways of several other people,
for ten years.
He learned to dance when he
I\\'as 15. but wanted to be a dra
‘mutic actor. When producers ask
ed him what he could do, he im
litated dope ends and epileptics,
and recited a ghastly poem about
a crazy man. Nobody happened to
need an epileptic, so he shelved
his great ambition and became a
hoofer in the Greenwich = Village
Follies. There he discovered Libby
Holman, who had a minor speak
ing part. Sillman coached her as
a torch singer (tied her hands
behind her back to keep her from
gesticulating) and sold her to
| Broadway - :
He also discevered Imogene
’Coca and convinced her that she
ought to become a comedienne.
It turned out that he was quite
)right.
l There was a Hollywood inter
lude in which Sillman had to
give dancing lessons in order to
ray his rent. Joan Crawford and
‘Bißllie Dove were among his pu
pils. Then he put on a revue, call
[erl “Low and Behold.” Last year
| on Broadway he presented “New
Faces,” full of bright young un
knowns. And now he has an in
gratiating show titled “Fools
Rush In.” In his spare moments
i he works on three novels;, ‘which
are being written more .or less

Hart Tops Writers
Most meteoric success story on
Broadway right now, though, is
that of Moss Hart, the writer who
has had a hand in so many hits
in the last few years. Indeed his
income now is larger th#n that of
any other member of his craft,
not excluding George S. Kaufman,
with whom he usually collabo
rates. :
Hart is only 28. He wrote his
first play when he was 12, and
acted in it before admiring rela
tives in o .all in the Bronx. He
never losc¢ c¢..tact with the stage
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1935,
after that; even while working ag
a floorwalker in a big cloak-and
suit concern he wrote and diretced
the annual emNgyes' show.
His first show to be profession
aly produced was done while hg
was secretary for a Broadway pro
ducer.—~He gave the first two actg
to the boss to read, saying they
were the work of a friend. The
employer liked the manuscript and
said to bring in the author. Hart
was embarrassed, and for months
had to make lame excuses for the
non-appearance of his friend. By
this time he had finished the
third act, and the producer was
ready to start rehearsals. Hanrt
finally broke down and confessed
the authorship. The play was
opened in Chicago, and failed mis
erably.
His next show, “Once in a Life
time,” was written with Kaufman
and was the smash hit of four
seasons ago. Incidentally, he still
addresses Kaufman as ‘“Mister
' Kaufman.”
Randolph Representative
Favors Old Age Pension
.
Law With U. S. Support
ATLANTA — (®) — An old age
pension low, with financial support
from the federal government, to get
the state out of the “poor house
business” is favored by Represen
tative Olin Hammock of Randolph
county,
~ Hammock, who came to the capi
tol for a visit prior to the conven
ing of the state legislature January
14, said he was opposed “in prin
iple” to a state old age pension
bill. .
“If the state has the proper sup
port from the federal government,
}I would favor such a measure,” he
said, “because it would be much
lhetter than direct cash dole to
paupers.” .
Hammock said his county paid
paupers directly, ke several other
counties in the state. County homes
for the poor are maintained by
the larger and more prosperious
counties, /
The legislator said the “sheriff,
clerk of court and ordinary” are
“too well liked” in the 159 counties
in Georgia for the movement to
consolidate the counties to “get
anywhere.” He calleq it a ‘good
'theor_v” but said it couldn’t be ac-
I complished.
