THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA MOTHER, DAUGHTER OF NEAR CARLTON, ASSAILED, BEATEN (Continued From Page One) mother or her daughter. Miss Goolsby was dragged several yards after she was assailed and her body hidden from view. Sharp Instrument According to the nature of the wounds received by the two women their assailant used a sharp-edged instrument. Miss Goolsby’s arm was also broken. The extent of their injuries has not yet been de termined, although Miss Goolsby appears to have been more serious ly injured than her mother. : Mrs, Goolsby’s sisters and bro ther from Winder arrived about the middle of this morning and went directly to the hospital. They are, Miss Johnnie Lou Smith, Mrs. W. B. Mathews and O. W' Smith. | The Goolsby home is a two-story house, with one large room in the second story and the remainder downstairs., Miss Smith said here today that Miss Goolsby, who does all the housework at the home in addition to nursing her invalid mother, did not make a practice of going out of the house before day light, and that she must have been in the kitchen when she was at tacked. Mr. Goolsby, husband and fath er of the two victims, died about ten years ago. Since that time mother and daughter have resided in the home, but discontinued operation of their two-hundred acre farm about eight miles from Carl ton. & No Struggle Over long distance telephone at noon, F. L. Mlartin, well known Carlton man, who had just return ed to Carlton from the scene of the manhunt, said that little progress had been made as there seemed to be no clue to the perpetrator or per petrators of the attack. Mr. Martin said that over 100 officers from the three counties and a large group of determined men from the various nearby com munities wee pressing the search over a wide area. Included in the group were Sheriff Ed Watkins of Oglethorpe, £ The posse started the @earch at the scene of the brutal attack and widened out in circles as the day proceeded, beating the brush and searching in every copseivable hid ing place as they went along. Mr. Martin said an exaination of the home showed that no strug ‘gle had take place inside the house as it was in perfect order. A 'bloodstained cover on the bed bore mute testimony to the spot where the aged invalid woman was struck. A few signs of a struggle outside the house showed where the young er woman had evidently tried to fight off her assailant. BOARD MUST MEET REQUIREMENTS TO GCET FEDERAL FUNDS (Continued From Page One) department as one having ‘“ade quate power and suitably equip ped and organized to discharge to the satisfaction of the secretary of agriculture the duties herein re quired.” - The acion was regarded as en dangering $19,000,000 in federal funds earmarked for highway and grade crossing elimination work in Georgia. Secretary Wallace has jurisdiction over the federal road bureau. ‘Whallace's letter contained no re ference to the Ball's Ferry bridge which Tarver and Governor Eugene Talmadge of Georgia, as well as Wilburn, have contended incited the displeasure of the federal bur eau becasue of the Georgia high way board’s failure to initiate it. ‘Tarver invited all members of the Georgia congressional delega tion to call on Wallace tomorrow in an effort to “break the dead lock” and release the funds due the state. An appointment was made for 11:16 a. m. Secretary Wallace's “ultimatum” was said to have listed five re quirements to be met, Thea% included the ‘“reorganiza tion and establishment” on an ade quate and acceptable headquarters engineering organization” compet ent to direct and handle projects with a like reorganization of field personnel, revision of rates of ceom pensation and field expense to the extent “necessary to secure and retain” competent personnel, “est ‘ablishment of the policy of admin istering the highway work to be ‘undertaken with federal funds for the state as a whole and not from the standpoint of the districts or sections in which additional mem ‘bers of the board may reside,” ‘adoption by the highway board of resolutions authorizing ‘the chief engineer to function on all engin eering matters for it, and adoption ‘of a policy whereby no payments on work would be made where fedral funds were involved unless they shall be approved by the en gineer in direct charge and the chief engineer. ATLANTA — (# — A charge that Congressman Carl Vinson and Secretary of Agriculture Wallace had “probably traded to defraud farmers out of billions of dollars” was Governor Talmadge's answer today to Wallace's manifesto block ing the flow of $25,000,000 of high way funds to Georgia. “Vinson and Wallace have prob ably traded with Vinson helping ‘Wallace to put through some of his legislation to defraud farmers out of billions of dollars,” Talmadge said. “In turn Wallace no doubt promised to give Vinson all the roads that he wanted, I think that is what has happened.” | EMPLOYES LAID OFF MANCHESTER, Conn. — (&) — Discontinuance of one ‘department and the laying off of 500 employes has been made known by Ward Cheney, president of Cheney Bro thers, silk manufacturers here, Cheney . said- an overbearing tax burden and. stiff competition with in the industry were the company’s chief troubles, | SEEING EUROPE with Paul Harrison PARIS—WeII, the Eiffel Tower is still here, and the Arc de Tiom phe, the chestnut trees on the Champs Elysees, Josephine Baker, Notre Dame, the American Express company and the Madeleine, with St. Paul still minus his head. The case awnings are gawdy as ever, Sparrow Robertson still writes his sports column in the Paris Herald. Midinettes still share their lunch with the sparrows of the benches of the Huileries Turks try to sell rugs; bookstalls on the quays offer delights to the browser; and the grand boulevards are crowded with shiny cars. But Paris isn’t the same any more. Paris has been given back to the French. Paris Arithmetic If you haven't been to this town recently, you’d be amazed to see how full it is of Frenchmen. Or how empty it is of Americans, which is the same thing. Sit in front of the Case de la Paix on the Avenue des Capucines these days and you'd have to sip a very great quantity of something before see ing everybody you know. All this, of course, is due to the difference in valué between the franc at present and the franc of the tourists’ hey-day. It used to be easy and pleasant to. multiply by 4 and estimate the trifling num ber of cents one was spending. But it’'s a pretty dismal chore to multi ply by 6.58, and the total invari ably is staggering. Wherever I've seen Americans here, they wear a look of worried abstraction and their lips are constantly moving over sums in mental arithmetic. Scurrying around Notre Dame, the flower market, the Louvre and other haunts of tourists, I've rec ognized only a handful of Ameri cans — and those mostly trippers on the Normandie. On the streets I haven't been solicited by a sin gle vendor of indecorous pictures, At the Dome, hub of the Left Bank’s Bohemia, I've gpotted not a single customer who patently was an American art student. The only conclusion is that they've all star ved to death. Vanishing Americans On the whole, the natives seem rather pleased about this state of affairs, for they have, at least, re claimed their own metropolis. The directory of Americans in Paris dwindled from 988 pages in 1931 to 'SBB pages in 1934, and it seems doubtful that a book even will be issued this year. A decade ago there were about 20,000 Americans here, and of the 7,000 who remain, at least a third are year-round residents absorbed in the city's business life, Naturally, some hand-wringing is being done by case and cabaret proprietors, but they have hopes ©of an imminent decline of the franc. Meanwhile they're doing fairly well with the patronage of their own prosperous provineials. Just as French travelers go to see New York and spend their time among their own people at the LaFayette and Brevoort hotels, so do Ameircans seek their kind in the Paris capital. Ankling the Rue Pigalle on errand bent, I found Fred Payne's bar by tracing the trains of many voices raised in the Georgia Tech song. By the time I got in they were doing “The Sweet heart of Sigma Chi.” Mr., Payne, who hails from Boston and way points, used to attract mostly Eng lish and American entertainers, but I seem to have arrived on college night. Railery To go to Harry's New York Bar, you get in a taxi and say, “Sank roo doe noo,” which is a fair ap proximation of No. 5 Rue Daunou, a short but famous lane between the Avenue de I'Opera and the Boulevard des Capucines. Ciro’s, at No. 3, is closed, but Harry, who furnishes crying towels for tour ists saddened by high prices, scar cely has noticed the pinch of the gold standard depression. £ The place was opened in 1911 by Milton Henry the American jock ey, and passed through various hands—including Tod Sloan’s—un til Harry McElhone acquired it. A Scotsman, he had worked at the Plaza in Manhattan, at Nice, Deau ville, and at Ciro’s in London. His. Deauville establishment was open only three hours a day, three days a week and three weeks a year, but it made a lot of money. By now, though, the New York Bar is sanctuary for all homesick Americans. College pennants, a lithograph of Custer’s last stand, framed orignals of Major Hoople cartoons, authographed pictures of every celebrity you can think of, hot dogs, 5 francs, hamburgers, 8 francs.

The program was in chargé of Luther Elrod and Leon J. Sisk, of the extension department. “The object of this project,” said Mr. Elrod, “is to demonstrate to farmers of the Piedmont sectionh of Georgia, that by employing the practices you will seée here, you may reduce soil losses to a mini mum, ‘We realize, he added, “that no one would be able to effectively cdontrol erosion on his farm just from lifstening to this talk, so may we extend all radio listeners and readers of The Banner-Herald, an invitation to visit our project and see for yourself that erosion can be controlled. “When this has been accomplish ed, Georgia may truthfully be called, ‘The Empire State of the South’.” This is a regular weekly feature of the Soil Conservation Service.
