Newspaper Page TextPAGE TWO - GARDENS = OLD and NEW (By Lucy W. Nicholson) ~ Flowers are in bloom in Athens - now—cold as it has been—Meratia ~ praecox and Oriental sweet shrub _and winter honeysuckle are de i hting gardeners with fragrant flowers. Nosegays may be had for the picking! © The Oriental sweet shrub has ' Straw colored flowers the shape of i% usual sweet shrub but the odor {5 different—Coty’'s Jasmin per _fume comes nearest giving you an _4dea of the delicious fragrance of thes sweet shrubs of winter. From ‘gbout Christmas until February ‘the plants have guanuties of blooms @& freeze hardly discourages them, It takes a hard one to stop them. ' Ofter when the weather is frecz ing cold, care has to be taken not %0 touch the flowers as the frozen blossoms are easily knockeq off as _they are quite brittle. As soon as the flowers are taken indoors and thawed out they are as fresh and ) o ) ERa nt as gqver, unharmed by the! ) DI, 1 'l‘he Ruckers on Dearing street ‘have numbers of these winter blooming sweet shrubs. The ones gthe Tinsley Rucker place were _plantea by the late Mr, Y. L. G. Harris. Mrs. Albert Davison has f eral plants and she suggested fthat they must have come from ‘the old Harris place as the Hamp % ns who built the Davisons’ home Were rélatives of the Harris fam % . It is quite probable as Oriental #weet shrubs are easily raised from leds, At the old Dearing home a fine plant is near the front walk @5 you enter. Miss Rosa Maddox ‘has had a large bush for years. The old Nicholson place has sev _eral of these old-fashioned shrubs. There are others in town but Ori _éntal sweet shrubs are not so gen érally planted as other winter blooming varieties «of shrubs. A Southern nurseryman said a few years ago that the demand had _become so much greater for these jlants that he had had to send all ithe way to Oregon to get his or ‘ders filled, E‘l‘he winter honeysuckle, another Chinese shrub with fragrant flow - _ers from Christmas until Febru . @ry, is sometimes called Christmas _honeysuckle—it has been spoken of %‘_ s Kiss-me-at-the-gate. One thing for sure many of these shrubs have _been planteg at the entrance gate _of homes! A little later, flowering quince '%ll begin to bloom, flowers of red or pink cover the plants and make a gorgeous show., Often these wely flowers are hurt by the cold t they bloom out again as soon as the weather permits. The flow % are rather like diminutive japo in shape, texture, and color. In Japan it is said that masses of flowering quince grow wild, mak ing of the waste places most beau tiful gardens of nature. Like many f the Japanese flowers, flowering * ce has no fragrance—but it is plive and vibrating with warm golor, so lovely you forget to miss . the perfume flowers often have. The winter jessamine, Jasminum ;é florum, is another favorite of ‘%*3 old South and is found all over ~ the town. As it grows in the sun ghine or shade and looks quite _ green all winter—not leaves but its ¢ ** n bark-—it is valuable in gar dén schemes. The bright yellow vers cover the entire plants o,u January on to February, Per baps the largest specimens in Ath § are on the Lucy Cobb campus— -2%1: v have been there as long as the ‘ _older citizens can remember. . Forsythia and the earlier bloom- | % spireas come along at the same ‘time and are lovely together as the ‘deep yellow of the forsythia needs ‘ e lacy whiteness of the spirea to lighten the deepness of its rich yel- Jow color. The old-fashioned bridal eath and spirea thunbergi plant ed in conjunction with forsythia ‘makes a delightful group. The _gpireas are used With arrangements ~,bulb-,-—daftodlla and jonquils — giving just the airy touch needed. Possibly the longest hedge of ,4 in Athens is on the college campus on Lumpkin street, Van ‘Houtte spirea — and a beautiful ‘hedge it makes, mmu- plant with pure and Jovely white flowers is Fxochorde g ndiflora or pearl bush, coming f; the late winter with a profusion ‘of blooms. The pearl bushes of the jw Burnets' are exquisite ex ; '"f*u of what lovely effects may ;':had with quantities of these plants. In fact many of their “’:. ds enjoy the garden most When it is all white in its flower -1% hedges—pearl bushes, spireas, )ﬁ*_é lilacs, and fragrant Phila _délphus. ~ Kerria or globe flower is ano ‘ther plant that makes gorgeous ‘4”:; es with the plants covered with the deep golden yellow flowers “early in ‘April, The Hunnicuts had & magnificent hedge of Kerria that % 18 80 lovely in the springtime that - people liked to drive slowly by Just j,_enjoy looking at it.

People living in Athens do not realize how lovely' the lilacs are here as they are accustomed to them. But when the Garden Club of Georgia met here in 1932 and saw masses of lilac used in dec orations at Memorial hall, the wo men were enthusiastic over the mass of fragrant flowers—espec ially delegates from middle and south Georgia where lilacs flourish very little. It seems that lilacs like cold winters. Mrs. Bradshaw who has more - different Xkinds of lilacs than possibly anyone in town — Persian lilacs in the box-bordered parterres in front and the French hybrids in the back gardens, says that in her other home in Keiatucky lilacs were marvelously prolitic — wagon loads of flowers -were brought into town for sale. . But Mrs, Bradshaw's lilacs, the hylbrids, are as full of flowers as it seems possible for plants to be. Her ithite lilacs are a show in the spiting time. % Flowering shrubs are valuable for any garden as about all they re quire is fertilizer in the" fall or 'winter -and cutting the blooms — a good time to do your pruning. _ A special invitation to strangers and any who may have no regular church home., FIRST PRESBYTERIAN Rev.

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA HAUPTMANN WILL BE ASKED 7 QUESTIONS BY ATTORNEY REILLY Continued From Page One) night by his counse¢l, might require hardly more than a minute, the cross-examination by the state is expected to take longer. By limit ing the direct questioning how ever, ths defense wil restrict the state’'s cross-examination. Reilly did not indicate what testimony Mrs. Hauptmann would give, It is expected to be corro borative of Hauptmann's as con cerns Fisch, the man Hauptmann has insisted gave him the ransom money which was foung last Sep tember in Hauptmann's posses sion, In expressing the hope that the state would give her the same treatment that the defense accord ed Mrs. Lindbergh, Reilly recalled that he had waived cross-exami nation because “we do not believe a mother's grief should be sub‘- jected to public examination.” One of the day's developments— a story that a ‘“double” of Haupt mann had be<n found and that it might have been this “double” whom witnesses reported seeing near the Lindberghs home in the Sourland Hills the day the baby was kidnaped and killed—failed to fmpress Reilly. The “double” was named as Robert Scanlon of Menlo Park, who was in the vicinity of the Lindbergh home about the time of the erime. “From Mr. Edison's laboratories in Menlo Park came many inven tions,” saiq Reilly. “Could this story of a Hauptmann double be one of them?” Examines Notes . The defense spent Sa.urday—the trial being in recess until Mon day—at Trenton, concentrating upon an examination of the ransom notes in an effort to shake, through its own experts, the evidence Fri day of a state witness that the notes were written by Hauptmann. With experts from several parts of the country present, the defense studied the notes, and indicated that the experts believed the notes were written not by Hauptmann as contended, but by Fisch. N o announcement concerning their findings was made, Reilly said that because members of the prosecution staff had been present, the “jury of experts’ would not make known “their finding and be lief.” One flurry of interest which de veloped Friday night had subsided Saturday when it was announced a banknote found in Gettysburg, Pa., which was said to hawve been part of the ransom money hagd been discovered to have no con-.ection with it. An error in giving out the serial umber of the bill was quickly corrected. Half-Way Mark A member of the prosecution staff said the state’s case had reached *“‘the half way mark.” The number of witnesses yet to testi fy has been reduced, according to Attorney-General David T. Wilentz ’tmm about 70 to 45 or 50. Among ' witnesses eliminated are 25 em ‘ployes of the J. P. Morgan banking firm who were to have testified concerning the preparation of the ransom money package, In reviewing the eight days of the trial, Judge George K. Large of the presecution said: “Our wit nesses have withstood effectively the cross-examination by the de fense, and their evidence stands in impeached.” The state is ready to refute any effort to show that uthér persons than Hauptmann perpetrated the crime, “We do not concede in the least the possibility of a gang,” he said. “The fact that we can trace the use of $49,96¢ of the $50,000 ransom money to Hauptmann rather pre cludes a gang. It would be highly improbable that Hawptmann had assistance and then faileg te divide the money with accomplices.” Five ldentifications The state, Large pointed out, has presented five independent identi fications of Hauptmann — by Col. Lindbergh, by Dr. John,F. Con don, the ransom intermediary, by the cab driver Joseph Perrone who told of carrying a ransom note from Hauptmann to Condon, by Aman dus Hochmuth, who said he saw Hauptmann in the vieinity of the Lindbergh home on the murder day and by iAlbert S, Osborn, handwrit ing expert, who testified Haupt mann wrote all the notes. Large said Hauptmann has es tablished himself “as a principal by _his own handwriting, and re gardless of our one-man theory of the crime, he can be convicted of first degree murder under New Jersey law.” In addition to Osborn the state will offer four other handwriting experts as witness, and “more if necessary.” Large expressed the conviction that the defense could not show that Fisch wrote the notes. Reilly said that he addressed the handwriting expert as follows: “You were brought together by the defense because of your de sire, after having eXamined such material as was published in the newspapers, to examine the origin als.” He said the erperts are being askeq to visualize the handwriting in the ransom notes without mi croscopes. German experts two of whom were present today, have examined the specimens for Teut onfe influences, said Reilly. “We do not intend to solve this crime,” Reilly remarked at the close of the examination. “We are here to prove Hauptmann not guilty.” Reilly reiterated his contention that the money being spent on Hauptmann's defense comes “out of our own pockets.” “No German societies,” he de clared, “are contributing. I wish they would, though.” The state will c{tinue during the coming week t& present its case in the sequence of facts that 8. Wilder. Statham: Pogzy Gar rett, daugnter of Mr. anq Mrs. C. J.

Amendment of the constitu tion to provide for old-age pen sions. i 6. A uniform driver’'s license law, possibly involving a modest fee for motorists, to provide funds to op erate the highway patrol. Tal- madge favors. 7. Diversion of various funds, in cluding $2,000,000 in highway funds, to pay up old state debts. Talmadge campaigned for this. 8. Ratification of the governor’s order fixing the price of auto tags at $3, and adoption of this price for the future. Another Talmadge platform plank. 9. Ratification of the governor’s order ousting the old pubuc serc ice commission. Also a campaign issue. 10. Creation of a four-year term (instead of the present two years) for the governor of Georgia. Tal madge advocates this. 11. Creation of the office of lieu tenant governor for Georgia. An other Talmadge bill. * 12. “Home rule” for cities and counties of the state. Sought by various associations of local and county officials. Governor Talmadge has not dis cussed publicly his position on the prohibition, tax, school, old-age pension and more rule topics. A bushel basket full of bills are expected to be dumped into the legislative hoppers of each house on the first day bills gre received. This may be on the first day, Mon day, if organization is completed in time. The legislature will canvass the vote for governor and other con stitutional officers Tuesday, and hear Governor Talmadge’s inaugu ral address on Wednesday. The governor says he expects to speak extemporaneously. Under Georgia laws, manufac ture or sale of any alcohoilc bev erages are now prohibited. Beer is sold openly in most cities of the state, however. Georgia is at the top in manufacture of illicit whisky. Prohibition advocates have ask ed for a referendum on the county unit plan, on both beer and whisky. Some repealists oppose this, say ing the legislature wrote the pro hibition laws into the statute books without a referendum. Other repealists say they are willing to have a referendum, but say it should be on a popular vote basis. Some lawyers at the capitol ques tion whether a county unit vote would be legal. The wets say the drys would have the advantage under the county unit plan, since small counties, regarded as dry, would control. Next to prohibition, the chief battleground is expected to be over taxes. Some say Georgia should or should not, have a sales tax, Others say there should be a general revision of tax laws, in cluding a sales tax law, a cut in property taxes, and higher taxes on incomes, and a tax on intang ible property. Advocates of the homestead exemption plan, includ ing Speaker Rivers, say this would cut property taxes. Others say such an exempt would bankrupt the counties and cities of the state. School financing is expected to be gnother controversial issue. Un der the constitution, revenues de rivea from the liquor traffic must go to schools. This may be the answer, if liquor is legalized, if it is not, others are counting on a sales tax. Some have suggested that the state finance wholly the public school system, thus reliev ing the counties of their chief tax burden. An old-age pension law for Georgia has found support from legislators. Tlts opponents admit there is a clamor for it, but say it would bankrupt the state. Under Talmadge's campaign pro gram of “no more taxes,” any new taxes are expected to be frowned upon by the governor, unless there are cuts in other forms of taxa tion. “The way to keep a govern ment good is to keep it poor,” he sayvs. A scattering of opposition has developed to plans of administra tion leaders to make the $3 tag the jaw in Georgia. Opponents say there should be a graduated scale, with , limousines, and commercial trucks and busses paying more. Advocates of the idea say thé gov ernor gave Georgians $3 tags be fore, by executive order, and could do it again. Pre-legislative discussions in creased today as legislators hegan arriving for the session. They will be here for 70 days. The gov ernor has already passed out the word that after the 10-day organ jzation session, the regular 60-day gession shall begin. It will arose after the kidnaping of the baby, Large said Saturday night. “I expect that most of the com ing week will be devoted to hand writing testimony. It is so import ant to the state that we can not afford to pass it over lightly.” The Ile de France will dock in New York Tuesday, bringing to this country three Germans in the company of Detective Arthur John son of New York. The identity of the three has not been disclos ed. It is believed one or more may be relatives of Fisch, who died in Germany last year, ang it is con sidered likely that one or more may be a handwriting expert. If the defense names Fisch as the ransom note auther, the state will call relatives of the furrier as tebuttal witnesses, one of the pro seeuting attorneys said Saturday.

With the voting less than 12 hours away, unbiased observers Saturday night gave Germany an edge on the balloting. a “It is hardly conceivable,” pleb iscite experts said, ‘“that the .anti- Nazis can swing 50 per cent of this profoundly patriotic German population.” To swell the ranks of those vot ing for Germany were 54,000 Saar landers residing abroad. Germany sent 48,000 of them, in special traing that rolled into the Saar Friday and Saturday. The rest came from widely scattered parts of the globe — Europe and Asia, Africa and the Americans — and the Nazis paid the passage for most of them. Because the vituperative, often violent campaign that has raged in the arey for.weeks hags sharply drawn the line between Commun ism and Naziism, however, some observers believed the anti-Nazis today might poll more votes than expected.

One would hold hearings on the bonus, another on the social insur ance legislation and a third on the $416,000,000 in “nuisance taxes’” which expire in mid-summer and which the President wants extend ed. i A possibility remained, Byrns asserted, that a special house com mittee might be selected to handle the job insurance—old age pension measure, He intended, however, to defer to the preferences of the chairman of the major committee involved—Doughton.
