Some ©of them weigh as much as 350 pounds, so we are expecting some great sport.” Leaving here on a plane thls“ morning, Colonel Roosevelt will be, a week traveling by air to Rio de Janeiro. After a short stop there, he plans to leave the MBrazilian capital for Sao Paulo and then head inland aeross the wilds to the little outpost of Joffre. There he will meet Siemel and the expedition will be carefully mapped and provisioned. Once everything is in readiness, the two will set out on horseback, armed with high powered rifles, spears and other | weapons. ‘Roosevelt said he may remain down there until July. ‘While stopping over here after an airplane flight from New York en route to Brazil, the president of the National Republican c¢lub teok time out from discussions of his hunting trip to speak of things political. He heartily endorsed the supreme court’'s decision in nullifying the NRA, and, with a glimpse into the political futures, said “in sober ‘truth, I believe that the American people are facing the gravest crisis that has occurred within the lives of any of us” ¢ “The battle in which we are en gaged is for the preservation of a Republican form of government,” he said. “This struggle transcends in importance any mere question of party names.” Roosevelt declined to discuss the possibilities of the Republican party in the 1936 presidential campaign, or predict who would become the leading candiates mentioned. It's too early for that, he said. ANOTHER BILL PAID KIDNAPERS TURNS UP (Continuead From Page One) ties were notified at ,Portland. Several flew to Suokane and were on the job within three and a half hours, said Postmaster W. W. Simpson. They attempted to discover who had tendered it, but apparently they were unsuccessful. Federal agents here yesterday took the Weyerhaeuser boy on a sudden motor trip, presumably in search of a gang hideout near Is saquah, where he was released for $200,000 Saturday. The authorities evidently expect an early climax to the case and believe the kidnapers are Pacific northwest men, perhaps from Taco ma and Seattle, BODY IS FOUND AUGUSTA, Ga. —A{#F)}— The Sa vannah river Wednesday yielded the body of Walter Lewis, 22-year old Texan, who was drowned Mon day. It was found 20 feet off the South Carolina shore opposite Au gusta. Lewis was one of five young transients. One of his compan jons gave his address as Blue Eagle Ranch, Route 5 Fort Worth, Texas. The coroner’s office said today that his relatives had not vet been contacted. An inquest ,m be held tomorrow. THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA COMMITTEE OF FOUR CHOSEN TO CONFER WITH FERA HEADS (Continued .®rom Page One) erate with us in furnishing labor to build these parks. This will give the city an excellent chance to co operate with the federal govern ment. It will give the unemployed and the children somewhere to go and receive worthwhile recreation. “The T.-P. A. is behind us, and will cooperate every way, in mak ing this a success,” Mr. Shusterman said. Mr. Shusterman cited as an ex ample of the good a park will be to Athens, a letter he received from a friend in Dayton, Ohio. This friend was unemployed for several vears, Mr. Shusterman said, and in his letter he said if it had not been for the public library and park and playground system in Dayton, he would not have known how to have passed away his leis ure hours. In eoncluding, he said that ninety‘ seven per cent of the eriminals sent to Sing Sing, were men, who aa‘ growing echildren, did mot have a place to receive proper recreational advantages. Represents Legion Henry H. West, representing the American Legion, also urged coun cil to donate the money, which will be used to employ an able direc tor for the parks in Athens. “Athens has never had but one park,” Mr. West said. “About 35 yvears ago there used to be a park on Prince avenue, but it was aban doned, the reason for which I do} not knew.” “We are asking you to appropri ate this money to enable us to em ploy an able director, because a park and playground not properly supervised will be a liability, not an asset, “From my experience (as soli citor general), 1 can truthfully say that ninety per cent of the children who appear in juvenile court are those whose parents are either dead, or work all day, leaving the children to play in the streets, and other: places that are available to them. lln ten years, in superior court alone, over 200 children have been tried for juvenile delinquic ies, “In the World War, grown men were taught to play during their leisure hours,” Mr. West said. “A permanent park system may not correct juvenile delinquincies 100 per cent, but I assure you that it will ecut it down considerable. It will be the finest money the city has ‘ever spent,” he concluded. Mrs. C. A. VerNooy said that all churches and schools would be called on for voluntary workers, and she believed everyone would respond. ¥ Given to Committee The request was put in the hands of a committee by Mayor Dudiey for consideration. The committee is composed of Councilmen W. H, Paul, B. L. Wier, W. R. Bedgood, Claud F. Crymes and A. M. Cen ter. Glynn Hilburn, manager of the Co-op Cab company, appeared be fore council to ask that the South eastern Stage company be made to -abide by the law requiring all driv ers hauling passengers in the city ‘to be insured. Mr. Hilburn said ‘that the South eastern Stage company transported University of Georgia students, and their baggage, from residences in the city to the bus office, free of charge, provided the passengers bought a tieket from Athens to their home town from the South eastern Stage company. Council instructed the city mar shall to eompel all drivers trans porting passengers and baggage in the city to have their drivers in sured. Hilburn claimed that the Southeastern Stage company driv ers, while insured to drive a bus from city to city, were mot insured to carry passengers from one place to anothar within the ecity. Asphalt will be poured over the cobblestones to be placed on Han cock avenue, along the side of the First Baptist church, and in front of the Y. W. C. A. Councilcman } Bolling S. Dußose made the motion to pour the asphalt, saying it would keep down noise during church hours. It was unanimously ap proved. ‘A petition asking the paving of King avenue be extended from the branch to Holman avenue was filed along with several other paving pe titions. Councilman Dußose asked that Springdale be paved. Place Stop Signs Stop signs will be placed on Hill street at the corner of Milledge avenue; on Foundry street at the corner of Broad street; and on Foundry street at he corner of Oconee. The election of Vincent Matthews as city recorder and Lamar C. Rucker as city attorney for three vear periods, was ratified by coun eil last night. Matthews and Rucker received the majority of the votes cast in an election held June 3. Council agreed to cooperate with the women on West View Drive and Milledge Circle in beautifying a spot of ground where West View drive branches off from Milledge Circle. The city will pay to have the ground plowed and harrowed, and the women plan to plant shrub bery and Tlowers. Charles Joel ask ed council to cooperate with the women in making this spot more beautiful. : .City officers re-elected by council were: James Barrow, clerk and trea surer. J. G. Beacham, city engineer and superintendent of waterworks. G. E. O'Farrell, ¢ity marshall. A. G. Smith, clerk so marshall. H. F. Kirk, clefk to 'water works A. J." Watson, street foreman. A, B.

PRESENTED (Continued Fromn Page One) ality is the ability to judge a thing unprejudiced. Broadmindedness is the common term for it. “Only a broad, sound mind” can ‘embrace equally things both great and small.” Broadmindedness ig actuated by unselfishness, while unselfishnes: is itself the Kkey that unlocks th: door to friendship and to abundant living. Unelfishness comes first from knowing ourselvés, our qualifica tions and limitations; and second, from knowing society, i!s needs and demands. To live creativeiy, one must not only gnderstand one'’s self, control, one’s self, and revere one's self, but one must also rev: erencé personality everywhere.' This line of thought dates back lo the time of the Greek philoso phers, who expounded the term, “Know ‘thyself”; and to Jesus of Nazareth, who made personality the potential center of the uni verse. Self-centeredness, however, should not be connected with the words, “Know thyself”. By a careful self analysis, do we not unconscious ly tend to cultivate our better qualities -and give expression te our nobler sentiments? The anci en's thought so; men of later years were of this same opinion, ané even now, our President, Frank lin D. Roosevelt, has appealed to the people for restored confidende in themselves and in others. Can one who does not understand him self possess self-confidence? The weakest among us has a gift, however seemingly trivial and the one who lives creatively dis: covers that gift and uses it worth fly in meeting the needs of human ity. Some have ‘the gift of amass ing great fortunes; others, of ab sorbing much knowledge; but it in the application of the money and the knowledge which determines their worth. ' e : How little 'is the return from unused capital! = Might not this also be applied to unused knowl edge? 5 ¥ Then again, creative living im plies the term responsibility and also that of dependability. One is dependent on the other, while ‘both rely greatly on veracity and pon,- esty. ’ el Emerson said, “I look upon ‘the simplé and childish' virtues of veracity and hoiesty as the To0t: of all that is sublime in charac fer.” But what is there for youth to do? Shall we say that youth’s duty is to do with all the zeal and candor of youth the task society sets before them and delight in seeing it well done? ' ' But we desire to mention two more traits associated with crea tive living. One is humor; the other is good health. Humor makes personality expansive, while good health promotes energy and zeal A healthy body and mind radia‘e cheer and a thorough delight in living, which are, after all, neces sary factors in the development of personsality. But humor and goed health alone do not bring contentment Are there not times in the life ol everyone when the soul yearns for higher, deeper spiritual -things® Coleman Cox said, “It has been my observation that those who do‘ not believe in God do not believe in anyone or anything worth men tioning and few ‘believe in them.” Jesus Christ, recognized by all religious faiths as a profound teacher, is to us, the highest ex ample of creative living and the final word in personality. The aim of creative living“should be to maintain a belief in one’s self: to maintain a belief in God and to serve humanity. Daniel Webster implies this ‘v these words: “If we work upon marble, it will perish; if we ‘work upon brass time will efface it; if we rear tem ples, they will erumble into dust; but if we work upon immortal souls, if we imbue them with prin ciples, with the just ‘fear of God and love of fellowmen, we engrave on those tablets something which will brighten all eternity.” ‘Personality is the by-product of an’ interesting life Tbst in service to God and to man. If the youth of today make an early practice of these principles, shall we not say that youth are lving creatively? Glance at the multitude of young people already casting a shadow in the future. Are they living creatively? Will theirs be an abundant life—full, to overflowing? If so, the social order will become what it ought to be. l el CUBAN MILLIONAIRE % KIDNAPED; EFFORT AT CONTACT MADE (Continued From Page Oone) ’created such a disturban'ce in the |neighborhood that everyone for several miles around learned that Senor San Biguel, his servants, and his home, were without arms. | “This knowledge probably aided the kidnapers’ plans. 1 am sure Arleta had a letiéer from the kid napers and he tried to get it into my hands, but the police prevented him. So far we have not received ransom demands.” | San Miguel, 78-year-old former‘ senator. and newspaper publisher,‘ ' was seized shortly Dbefore dark yesterday while being driven to his{ luxurious country home in the Vibora suburb. The abductors also carried off his bodyguard, Modesto Inglesias; his chauffeur, Constantino Prieto, and‘ "hls valet, Simon Arleta. | Two children, a 14-year-old boy‘ land his 11-year-old sister, the only witnesses, told authorities the kid napers used a wagon Dpiled high with mangoes to mask their acti vities. e AN Election of city assessors was postponed until the December meet ing 'The motion to re-elect all of ficers was made by Councilman Wier. e Mercer University Confers Honorary Degree On Murphey President of Citizens and Southerh Bank |s Doctor Of Laws MERCER—A native son of Geor gia, a civic leader, and one of thei nation’s great bankers was honor ed on Monday evening, when Mer cer University conferyed upon Wil liam Murphey, president of the Citizens and Syuthern Nationall bank, the degree of Doctor of Laws. The citation upon which the honor was basell reads as follows: “To William Murphey, born March 24, 1888, educated in public schools of the state, in commercial college, and in Mercer university, displayed early evidenced of aptness and gen ius for business career. Entered the service of the Citizens and South ern National bank at Savannah, Georgia in 1910 and advanced promptly through successive inter mediary positions to the presidency of the same. Official and director in banks, railways, and other rank ing business enterprises. Member of the board of trustees of Mercer university and of its finance com _mitfee, pubfic spirited and with a well-known bias for stewardship and philanthropy, he gives liberally of his time, his thought, and his funds for the common good.” " Murphey Speaks Earlier in the day, alumni gath ered in the university chapel, had listened to 'a stirring address by Mr. Murphey wherein he called upon thinking meén of the nation to organize and to take charge of the affairs of the nation in the in terest of “permanent economic solidarity and the best interests of their own affairs,” Challenging the people of the na tion with failure to exercise their yoting franchise, he said, “as a peo ple we are, in my judgment, pay ing the price of a long series of social and political as well as eco nomic blunders. Not the léast of these is our failure to take our civic obligations seriously. We have gloried in mechanical deyvelop ment, production and merchandis ing and have relegated our govern mental operations in many cases to opportunists. The exercise of our ‘franchise as citizens of a democracy has been 1 matter of indifference or positive neglect. . " Discussing the drift toward radi cal trends in government, he con tinued: “We stand today at the cross roads, faced with a decision as to whether we will take the road of reason and common sense or the road of emotional appeal. We must determine whether as a nation we are more interested in temporary relief at any cost or permanent economic solidarity. W'e must de termine whether basic prosperity lies in “sharing the wealth” and other social panaceas, or whether the thinking men who created our high standards of trade and indus try, both national and international, can take the great naturgl resources of this nation and unhampared by political interference, bring order out of chaos.” Great Peril Today Political expediency was seen as a great peril facing the country today: “The great peril of political ad ministration of business does not liz in the condition that politicians make mistakes. Rather it is based on the fact that it is politically un wise to admi# errer. Therefore, having started o' a given program the politician, purely from a stand point of personal and party, exped iency, must endeavor to force the program through. A business man, realizing that he has made an error of judgment, quickly reverses his position because his own capital is at stake. Therein lies the great difference. ‘The politican is exper imenting with other people’s money. If money is lost, it becomes merely government deficit and a new tax will remedy that. If private ecapital is lost, he has aided in the distri bution of wealth.” He cited the 'condition of the cotton market as being closest to the south as one of the examples of political bungling. “When I say that our industry and agriculture are being domin ated by men who snow absolutely nothing about them, the whole pro gram of the cotton market stands out as proof of the statement.” Price Pegging ~ He pointed out how restriction of acreaire was inureasing acreage in foreiga countries, and showed how artificialy price2pegging on the staple was making it profitable for other countries to export cotton. Of the textile situation, he declared:: “We can go one step further and take the present condition of our cotton textile mills as an indication of the pernicious effect of such po licies, not alone on foreign markets but on domestic operations. Con fronted with an artificial price peg— the textile manufacturers find themselves not only out of the foreign markets, but their on Unit ed States markets invaded by for eign competition, with which it is impossilbe to compete. Under this plan, the only solution for the Am erican textile manufacturer would be to build a wall around the coun try, and to place a complete ban on every pound of foreign textiles.” Declaring that business and busi ness men create the wealth of the .of the world, he called upon them to work for a better form ‘of gov ernment in the statement: ‘ “This {(good government) is the obligation of all groups of thinking men. Let usrealize that we create our own government, and that we select the men who make our laws, that we confer the powers which public officials posses. Such, in prin. ciple at least, is the scope of a de moeracy . . . And unless we are to change our whole concept with re spect to government and its rela tion to our social economic and po litical life, unless we are to con cede that individual effort, thrift, labor sacrifice, vision, courage and practical experience, are outworn and outmoded characteristics which Book Week for the County Unemployed Is Being Observed Miss Beverly Wheatcroft, presi dent of the Georgia Library As sociation, ‘has designated ~the week June 1-8, inclusive, as “Book Week for the Unemploy ed.” Working with Miss Wheatcroft is a committee of ouistanding (Geogians who Are using this meth od of soliciting gifts of books from private sources with which to es tablish small libraries in organized rural communities, transient, where library services is not im camps, and sections of the state mediately available. The administrative personnel o 1 the Federal Emergency Relief Ad ministration of Georgia in Clarke county will participate in this movement and invite the public to join them in giving books for this worthy purpose.

I'm very anxious to show what pri son ‘athletics can do for a prisoner. When I came here I knew very lit tle about baseball, and nothing about football. I learned it all here, and now I can make a better living at those things than at any other job I can get, . “It's hard enough to make a new start when you leave prisen with out a kick at the start. If I thought I had fifty per cent of the public with me, T know I can make good. But if T have to go into baseball with two strikes on me, I'd rather go in for something else. I'd rath er have the fans give me a chance than have them say, ‘Here comes that clown from Sing Sing. “In a way I don’'t blame Bram ham. If he thinks I may do some thing wrong, I suppose he is right. After all, baseball is a business. But I won’t make anyhody regret giving me an opportunity. I owe that much to Warden Lawes, who has been more than a friend,” Pitts also expressed his gratitude to Mrs. Lawes for her kindnes to him. “I'm going out of here a good citizen,” ne said. “I was young and foolish - when I came here. Of course I was guilty, but being in here has changed my point of view about things. For one thing, I know 1 can be happy without money. In the days when I did the things that brought me here, I thought night clubs and all that sort of thing was the life. Well, I know better.” Pitts said his mother, whose sup port he will undertake, did not come to the prison because of his plan to do direct to Albany. His mo ther, Mrs. Edwin C. Rudd, lives at St. Barnabas Episcopalian home, New York City.
