S sLo 5 OR e e | TOURIST BUSINESS INCREASING , Since the completion of the pavement of the higzhway to Macon and to Florida, the | increase in tourist travel has been quite ! noticeable. In fact, the number of tourist .’cars passing throngh Athens during the | last few months indicates a return of the 'tourist travel from the east. In support of ‘the increased traffic through this section, ‘the Waycross Journal-Herald furnishes information of an interesting character as relates to the increase from various sec tions of the country. In part, tha Journal- Herald, says: l “A count taken shows that approximate ly 72,865 tourists visited that city during! the thirty days between January 2 and February 2. The tetal number of cars was 28,025. New York cars led the list with Wyoming the only state not represented. Such figures demonstrate conclusively that it is worth while to advocate additional paved highways and to keep on insisting that gaps in paved highways be paved. Tourist money is cash money While many tourists merely pass t! rough a city, a large percentage of thera stop long enough to spend something. The primary purpose of Georgia highways is to serve Georgians. We all agree as to that.. The primary pur pose of a city in advocating paved high ways is to create greater convenience for the people in the city’s trade territory. We all agree as to that. But in thinking aboutl the importance «f paved highways one| must include the fact that paved high-i ways bring into a city cash tourist money.” The Chamber of Commerce: has accom-l plished much in its efforts to secure east-i ern tourists to visit Athens. During last summer, Secretary Wier distributed thous—l ands of pieces of advertising matter throughout the country, and the Banner- Herald sent 20,000 copies of its Century of Progress edition to the World’s Fair, telling of the advantages possessed by this city for home-seekers, investors gnd tour ists, all of which has contributed much in| inducing the increased number of tourists to stop over in Athens. GRABBING AT STRAWS | It is interesting to note the ballyhooing of Republican leaders in desperate ef forts to prejudice the minds of the people of this country against President Roose velt and his administration. Not long ago,l former President Hoover, in an address de-| livered in New York, at the Lincoln birth day exercises, attempted to discredit the present administration by bitterly criticis ing the President and his policies without, offering a solution or an improvement for; bettering conditions. His address dealt with generalities and was a harangue of camouflage intended to mislead and mis inform his radio audience. Such clap-trap policies will fail in purpose and in the endl react on the leaders and the party they represent, | A few evenings ago, Hamilton Fish, Re publican member of congress from New York, spoke over th: radio. He, too, at tempted to mislead and prejudice the minds of his audience by severely arraign ing the President and his recovery meas ures. Predicting a day of reckoning and disasters to follow in the wake of the pres ent administration, Congressman Fish did not mine : words, though his charges and representations were without foundation of suet: The members of the Republican party are in desverate straits and are resorting to methods that are bound to react before the election in 1936 has rolled around. Un less there cccurs a revolution of sentiment, President Roosevelt will be re-elected by practical’y the same large majority he re ceived in 1932. The Republicans are fighting a hopeless battle. The people of this country, regard less of party affiliations and allignments are satisfied with the present administra tion and its policies, and so long as they lhave a vote to cast, it will bhe given to lPresident Roosevelt. That much can be de pended vpon irrespective of the ramblings land misrepresentations of Republican fleaders. OLD-AGE PENSIONS A bill providing for the payment of pen sions for the aged is now before the gen eral assembly, it having passed the lower branch of the legislature. Just what amount will finally be agreed upon is prob lematic, but it is quite evident that the hill will be enacted into law before ad journment of the session. The southern states have not taken to the pencion plan for the payment of the aged—the nearest to the southern states being Kentucky and Maryland. Kentucky pays $250 a vear while Maryland pays $1 a day. Some of the other states, however, are more liberal with their pension pay-{ ments. The following states and the amounts paid in pensions, may be of interest: Alaska, $35 a month for males and $45 a‘ month for females; Arizona, S3O a month; California, $1 a day; Colorado, $1 a day; Delaware, $25 a month: Hawaii, sls a month : Idaho, $25 a month; Indiana, SIBO a year; Jowa, $25 a month; Keptucky, $250 a year; Maine, $1 a day; Maryland, $1 a day; Massachusetts, no limit; Mich igan, S3O a month; Minnesota, $1 a day; Montana, $25 a month; Nebraska, S2O a month: Nevada, $1 a day: New Hamp shire, $7.50 a week; New Jersey, $1 a day; New York, no limit; North Dakota, $l5O a vear; Ohio, $25 a month; Oregon, S3O a month ; Pennsylvania, S3O a month; Utah, $25 a month; Washington, S3O a month ; West Virginia, $1 a day; Wisconsin, $1 a day; Wyoming, S3O a month. ; Thus, it will be seen, from the foregoing, that the south has lagged in this most de serving and worthy social legislation. From reports and expressions made by the legislators, it is believed that an old age pension bill will be passed, carrying a yeasonabte monthly stipend, @ THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA This H to Be Everybody’s Busi This Happens to Be Everybody’s Business!

But it 1s your corres pondent’s unhappy duty to report that the theater has lost its cats. This is quite a loss, because there have been some important cats on Broadway. There was the one that had Kkittens in Maude Adams’ dressing room, the one that meowed at Eva LeGallienne during an emotional scent, an other that stole the show from the tenor warbling in ‘“Turandot’ at the Metropolitan, and the cat that played hob with the premiere of “Rio Rita.” - Among acting cats was the one which used to be identified by yGrouche Marx as a Reruvian quail i-—-the only fur-bearing quail in lthe world. Mr. Marx offered to per-uve that it was. More recent -Iy, a succession of kittens appear ed with Joe Cook in “Fine and Dandy,” hopping out of a cocktail shaker when anybody ordered a pousse case. Catastrophe Practically all theaters used to have basement and backstage cats, 'each variously considered good luck and bad luck by cat lovers ~and non-overs, respectively. The Palace cat, Tootie, lived in the ‘boiler room for nine years and produced thirteen generations of progeny without making a single ~sortie on the stage. The Bijou and Morosco theaters had a joint cat inamed Timbuctoo. But what with \beirg fed by the property men zud ‘stage doormen at both houses he got so fdt and lazy that the rats ate him. At least, that is the lo cend. ’ The veason most theaters have ‘dispensed with their ecats, and re lsorn.d to rat polson instead, is . that they just can't be trusted to - stay out of sight. In a play sev l eral zeasons ago an acrress had to | stand at a doorway and pretend lto call her cat. But no cat was supposed to appear; in faet, con s'curable dramatic value attended tke fact that the pet wouldn't come at its mistress call. The | house cat happened to be brnws-l g in the wings on the opening night. When it heard the »°toecs' l .coaxin, “Kitty, kitty!” it bound- ; ed through a window, rubbed ' against her ankles andi ni-oweld. ] The scene was ruined and. the | show soon closed. i A back Tom adopted the cast! of “She Loves Me Not” last season | during rehearsals, and became ! such a favorite that there was | serious trouble when the manage- | ment had it spirited away just be- ! fore the opening night. A very! dignified old feline at the Broad-. hurst had an understudy to do Itsi mouse-catching. { Not Siamese Twin i William Barry, in a current mu- l sical, owns a prize Siamese nam- ! ed King Kong, and shows pictures‘ of it to anybody who is willing te I look. A chortus girl studied one of the hotographs the other evening and seemed perplexed. “I thought you claimed it was a Siamese,'i she said. Barry assured her thai it was a Siamese. “Then where,"! she demanded, “is the other one?”" A few motion picture houses‘ tolerate ' cats, althougk theré is| none in the Mickey Mouse theater. | A sleek Tom called Midnight has! charge of things in the vast Music | Hall of Rockefeller Center, Rocke-' feller Center hasn't any mice vet, so Midnight is able to make a full- ’ time job of the maintenance of his' personal aplomb and dignity.
