THOMAS F. GREEN, JR.
BY SAM WOODS .

president, was electeq delegate to
the annual convention of Rotary

co City June 17-21 at the weekly
luncheon meeting of the club yes
terday. Rgbert Hanna was named
alternate. :
Dr. Pope Holliday, chairman of
the community service committee,
presented T. W. Reed, registrar at
the University, who gave a most in
teresting talk on Atheps in its
early days.
At the beginning of his talk Mr.
Reed said he hesitated in giving
exact dates, since T. 8, Mell was
present and he feared that his talk
might end in some argument.
However, it developed at the con
clision of his talk that Col. Mell was
in accord with the data® present
ed.
Among the many interesting
items included in his talk were:
In 1832 The Athens Banner was
founded, The first cotton mill was
erected at Whitehall in 1827, and
a paper mill came into being in
1830,
Business Founded £
In 1850 one of the south's most
snterprising businesses was found
sd in Athens, The Southern Mutual
Jnurance company. Mr. Reed paid
nigh tribute to this well managed
organization,
The oldest building in Athens
stands on Oconee street, acrpss the
river and oOld Collegé, on the Uni
versity campus, is a close second,
being built 132 years ago.
The iron fence at the qollege en
trance was built in 1869 ‘and for
vears the students crossed it by a
stile,
Mr. Reed said he believed At
lanta’s growth and . ,dev.élppment
started with the founding of The
Atlanta Constitution, and that Ath
ens was really responsihle for it,
since of the three founders of The
Constitution, twe were Athenians,
Col. Hemphill and Henry Grady.
At the conclusion of his talk
President (laude Chance thanked
Mr. Reed, adking him to return at
an early date and give the mem
bers more facts about Athens and
its early histeory, * °*
T. 8. Mell, representing the Sun
shine committee, presented Miss
Elizabeth Aderhold, who was born
on May 9, with the Rotary silver
spoon, and in honor of the occas
ion her father, O. €, Aderhold,
bassed cigars in celebration.
Sympathy was expressed in the
Passing of Mrs. E. B. Wood, mother
of Mrs. Nelson S. Arthur, and of
John T. Pittard, of Winterville.
Visitors at the luncheon besides
Mr. Reed, were Jesse E. Reese, and
Fred Kelly, both of Atlanta,

Georgia’s New Wine Law Takes Spotlight From Liquor Battle

Fail to Halt Repealists;

WINE, BEER LEGALIZED
ATLANTA — (AP) — Wine
and beer became legal in Geor
gia today as Governor Eugene
Talmadge proclaimed the two
acts ratified in the referendum
last week, at the same time is
suing a proclamation that the
people had rejected liquor by a
majority of 243 votes.
The governor issued his pro
clamation without comment.
ATLANTA, Ga.— (&) —Leaping
to the fore on the impetus of
conflicting opinions, Georgia's
new wine law «tock the spotlight
from the liquor battle today.
Two different views were given
regarding the provision of the
wine law forbidding importation
of either wine or the material for
making it into the state and in
the meantime repeal advocates
drew plans for attempt to over
come twin rebuffs in courts.
Some anthorities were quoted as
saying the wine law is in direct
conflict with -the United States
interstate commerce act. This
view came close on a ruling made
yvesterday by state Attorney Gen
eral M. J. Yeomans that wine or
materials for it could not be
brought into Georgia.
Will Open Gates
The persons who were quoted
said the confiict of the wine law
with the interstate commerce act
will open the gates for a flood of
wine from California and Europe,
with a maximum alcoholic con
tent of 24 percent, the limit un
der the revenue law of the United
States.
It was said the interstate com
merce act specifically provides
that no state may prohibit the
importation from another state of
any product, the manufacture and
sale of which is not prohibited in
the state itself.
Attorney General Yeomans did
not pass on the constitutionality
of the wine act vesterday but
merely gave an interpretation of
the new law. He said the so
called bone dry law es the state
was not repealed by the act but
remains “in full force and effect
except insofar as it has been mod
ified by the wine act and the beer
