' ¥ ) 3 ‘ CATTON'S COMMENT l e BY BRUGE CATTON = ‘One of the oldest of all problems. how to recon t the interesis of men who work on farms and 3113” who work in factories. is coming to the front tgain. ‘Pach group depends on the other, each byys the prodiicts of the other, and you would think iheit' intaxiests would he the same. But there hag been, and is today, definite conflict of interests. | ‘jp}h current legal attack by processors on the AAA {§ the thing that has brought the question into re lief. . Here is a law taxing the consumer (through the processor as collector) to benefit farmers and‘ glve them the difference between low world prices for farm products and the prices that we believe an, American standard requires. % big industrial. processors and distributors are now. attacking this law as unconsiitutional. Maybe it §B7is. Time and the courts will tell. sfi,jt from Texas farmers, who have benefitted from the AAA program, comes a counter-attack. “All right’’ they say, “if you wreck the processing taxes 'ifi;é‘h protect us from ruinous world competition then we'll go out to wreck the tariffs that have pro ectéd you from world competition.” ' . And of course the wages and jobs of American ‘x' Ty workers, as well as theg profits of ithe manu rs, have been protected by the tariff from foreign competition. “ Thus ithe conflict. The farmers have always paid igher prices for clothing and tools. because they| ther paid the tariff on the imported kind or paid to-American makers a price equal to the foreign price lus tariff. Now they say: you city people must pay %Qghtor wheat and corn equal to the foreign price g’l&ffi‘wmc@ssing tax—or else. " The difference between tariff and processing tax i§ mainly this: the money collected in tariffs goes intp the general treasury for the use of all. The mone) from processing taxes is paid directly to farmers for ré“dtiéing crops. Thus there is apparently a differ ence in their standing before the Constitution. “But farmers are less interested in that {than in the gimple give-and-take aspect of the proposition. They literally believe that what's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. This is the essence of the problem at stake in the present wave of processor suits against the AAA, and 1 the counter-atlack on industry starting in g:;he‘ supreme court decision on NRA and iis forth coming decision on AAA may leave the essential problem untouched, except for a broader gtudy of it from the Ameérican people have ever given it before. it ¥ Mmoo Now that Congress is in a scramble over ways to , more money and cut down the deficit, it isn't %fio pass up this one.

His views, had Wity been published, would have revoluticnized the CHEAP MOTOR FUEL Doctor Charles H. Herty, noted scien tist and discoverer of a process for treat ing pine tree pulp for the manufacture of of mewsprint, has discovered another use which the pine tree can be put in the way of alcohol for the operation of automobiles. At the annual meeting of the State Agri cultural Society, held in Albany last week, Dr. Herty announced that ‘“we may look forward to a day when automobiles will be powered by alcohol derived from Geor gia and other southern pine trees.” Thisl new discovery is said to be a great savings] over gasoline which is now used for pro pelling automobiles. The cost of the pine tree alcohol is far less than the material now used, besides it will increase poten tially the demand for pine trees in various lines of industry. ~ The newsprint industry, manufactured from pine trees has grown to be one of im portance and now that the pine tree pulp can be used for other purposes, the value is of greater importance than ever before.l Dr. Herty has rendered a service to land owners and farmers that will bring to them better returns for their wasted lands ‘han they are now receiving from their cultivated and fertile lands. ' While the manufacture of alcohol from wood pulp has been prohibitive in the past, the discovery of a new process has elimi nated the cost and made it one of the ~heapest products that can be produced for operating automobiles. Before another year, it is believed that alcohol manufac tured from pine trees will be generally used for motor fuel. : SENATOR WALTER F. GEORGE Political rumors have it that Senator Walter F. George will be appointed by President Roosevelt to succeed the late ndge N. P. Bryvan, of Jacksonville, on the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. It has been known for some time that the President has had in mind the appoint ment of Senator George to the first va sancy on the Supreme Court, but it is a question whether the Senior Senator from Georgia would be inclined to accept a cir-| cuit court appointment. Of course, the ap-| rointment would be for life, which is an! ‘nducement preferable to a political office, but it is only a mattar of a short time when tr.ere will be one or more vacangies on the Supreme Court, Senator George is suscept ible to the suggestion that he be appointed to the Supreme bench, and it is more than likely, should the Cireuit Court of Appeals be offered to him, that he would decline the appointment and bide his time for ap pointment to the higher court. While no official statement has been made, it is the general belief that if a va cancy occurred in the United States sen ate, Governor Talmadge would tender the appointment to Hugh Howell, chairman of the State Democratic Executive Commit tse and former manager of both campaigns of the present governor. “IT WON'T BE LONG NOW?” After one of the most hectic sessions held in recent yvears by a congress of the United States, there appears a bright spot on the adjournment horizon which may come to a head on Saturday night of this week. However, there remains a large batch of legislation on the calendar in which Presi dent Roosevelt is greatly interested. He has indicated time and again that he did not wish congress to adjourn until it clear ed the docket of all “must” legislation. The row over the amendments to the in come tax bill taxing the “little fellow” may delay adjournment for several days, and more than likely defeat the bill as now proposed. The amended bill, in our belief, was made in order to defeat the original bill, and from present appearances we he lieve that it is doomed. Members of both house and senate are becoming aggrivated apd ‘‘raring” to go home. Under such conditions, it is fearful that important legislation will be slighted or rushed through without proper scrutiny and consideration which, of course, would be very unfortunate for the administra tion ‘as well as for the interest of the na tion. There is much important legislation that must be agreed upon by hoth houses. The AAA bill, negotiation of differences between the house and senate on the bank bill, the utility holding company bill, and the gold clause resolution, all are of major importance and should be acted upon be fore adjournment. , A COURAGEOUS STATESMAN Opposition appears to be springing up to Senator Borah, of Idaho. Much of the opposition, it is alleged, arises from the Democratic side of the major parties. While Senator Borah is supposed to be a Republican, he is a man of convictions and votes for and against legislation irrespec tive of party lines. He is not wedded to the Republican party; he votes with the Dem ocrats as often as he does with the mem bers of his own party. He is a man who cares little for public sentiment, but takes a position and remains firm regardless of what others -may think or how they cast their votes. . While we do not believe that there is any danger of his defeat in the election next year, we do believe that his presence in the senate would be worth more to the Democratic party than that of any Repub lican who might be elected in that state. In our opinion, the Democrats had best leave well enough alone.

Jo goes to CGrest Lake Marsh’s eccentric mother dis likes her and causes difficyl ties. These are increased when PETER FRAGONET, film ac tor, arrives, Fragonet pays marked attentions to Jo, asks her to marry him as soon as he can secure a divorce. 4 Bret Paul comes to Crest Lake as life guard. BABS MONTGOMERY, achool ac quaintance who is jealous of Jo, is also there. Fragonet leaves and returns when his film company under takes to make part of a mo tion picture at the resort. Jo becomes friendly with LOLA MONTEZ, actress. During 2 scene on the lake Lola narrow ly escapes drowning, is rescued by Bret Paul, Jo learns it was Bret and not Fragonet who saved her life after the sailboat accident. She goes to thank Bret for this, finds him with Lila Saunders, Hollywood extra girl. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXXII . As the first pink streaks of dawn reflected up from the lake Jo Derien sat upright in bed, wide-eyed and sleepless, and glanced at the clock beside her. It was far too early for activities at Crest Lake, but Jo Kknew that there was no use in her touching ner pillow again. She sat for a moment on the edge of the bed, retrieving her scattered and bitter thoughts. Then, as if to brush them away, she pushed trembling fingers across her forehead and got to her feet. Perhaps, she thought, a walk in the woods would straighten her up. So, just as the day was fully breaking over the tranquil lake and the quiet forest, Jo was tramping briskly Along one of the paths that led away from the inn and the cottages and their occu pants. She felt as though she forever but, as the thought form would like to keep on walking ed in her mind, she smiled rueful ly. “If 1 kept on walking I'd run into other people—and 1 suppose they're all about alike really.” She was, she told herself over and over, a fool to be so upset hecause she had found Bret Paul with the Saunders girl in his arms. She ha dlost nothing really, for she and Bret had meant nothing to each other since that night in the Fendale apartments when he had upbraided her so fiercely. And yet . . . And vet (she knew it now) she had always somehow believed that they would mean something to each other again. She knew now that, from the first time she had encountered Bret again at Crest Lake, she had wanted forgiveness. She had wanted him to take her in his arms. She had wanted to get back, somehow, to those idyllic days of the shaded campus when nothing had mattered to her except —Bret Paul. When Douglas Marsh had told her the bitter truth which meant that Fragonet could not be faith ful now, might never be faithful to any one woman, she had real ized mcre than ever what Bret Paui had meant to her. He had been someone who had cared for her and no one else. Someone who cared enough to be fanatically an gry when he believed she was do AT Wiuvini . He had seemed so aloof and de- THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA cent and—and right. And now he was as cheap and common as hundreds of men she might meet and talak with or join in cocktails and cigarets. There was another thought lurking at the back of her mind, a thought whic.. sulked and feared the light but which never= theless was there. It was that Bret may have always been the Bret she had seen last night through the window of the cottage. How was she to know that there had never been other Dila Saunders, even at the university when he was protesting only his love for Jo Darien? Her strong legs, flashing stead ily in their whipcord breeches, had taken her far into the woods before she realized that now the sun was almost above the trees. Resolutely she turned and began retracing her steps along the path, watching every moss-grown trunk, every moving leaf, in an effort to keep her mind away from yesterday's events. Tubby was on the veranda when Jo drew in sight of the Inn. She ‘had evidently - been 'waiting, for she hurried down the slope to meet her friend. “Good Mornihg, Tubby,” Jo cried gaily, masking her gloom. “I'd have asked vou to go hiking with me— but I know how you like to sleep.” Tubby nodded. “KEspecially on mornings after a dance. What made you skip out so early last night 1 stayed until the orchestra put their instruments away.” “I managed to take on a head ache,” Jo said. “I went out for a breath of air, but that didn't deo any good. So I tried sleep.” “Well, you look fine this morn ing,” Tubby told her. “By the way, 1 went up to your room a while ago and saw a notice on the door saying there was a spe cial delivery letter for you at the desk.” “Special delivery letter? Oh, Tubby . . . I hope nothing’s wrong at home ;. .7 “That’'s ‘not likely,” said Tubby philosophically. “I never throw a fit unless it's a telegram.” Jo hurried to the desk and re ceived the letter. As she had sus pected, it was from Weston, and addressed in her father’s familiar handwriting. Feverishly Jo . slit open the envelope. Unable to wait until Jo had finished the letter. Tubby burst out, “Anything wrong, Jo?" Jo shook her head, hurriedly scanning the letter through. “No . . . it's good news, Tubby!" Smil ing happily Jo folded the letter and slipped it into the pocket of her jacket. “Dad got his job at the state house. The one he was planning on when he sold the store.” + “Saf, thaQy great!” Tuphy eyed Jo speculatively. “That means you can go back to the university this fall. You should have saved enough here to just about—" Jo was shaking her head. “No Tubby. I don’t think T want to go D . . onow.T The other was silent a moment. Then she said, “I can understand that, Jo. You're way ahead of us who are in school yet. You've found a place in the world—and none of us can know where the devil we're headed once the cam pus lets go of us."” “That’s not it maltogether,” Jo said slowly. Then smiling quick ly, she added, “But let's have some breakfast, Tubby.” They found the dining room crowded with the movie company. Drann and the principals—except for Fragonet—were at one table, and the technieal crew grouped around several square tables which had been shoved together. ‘. oo i '[” o all ifi alking ceaselessly and all seemed excitedl " glad U nat their location work was over and | Ethe familiarity of Hollywood was imminent once again. l “I wonder,” mused Tubby as ' she and Jo found a small table. “where your boy friend is?” ! “If you mean - Fragonet,” Jo] isaid lightly, “I'm sure 1 dont know."” ; ‘“He's been keeping very muchl out of sight since that day he let }Miss Montez slip into the lake."! Jo shot. Tubby a disapproving! glance. “Can’'t we talk about t something pleasant,’ Tubby ?” “Sure . . . let’'s talk about what ‘we'l'e going to have for break fast.” l I Before they had finished Silas | Drann sauntered over to their | table to bid them goodby. Jo was !va.stly amused at Tubby's discom ; fort, for she knew that Drann had | danced “almost exclusively with Tubby the evening before—and she could only imagine the trend of the frank and eccentric Dranas conversation. When he had taken himself off, Tubby gave vent to a prolonged sigh. “That man worries me to death when' he's around,” Tubby con fessed. “I never know what he's ‘going to say next.” “I' should think,” remarked Jo, “that would be delightful. With most men you know perfectly well what they’re going to say next.” | “Sa-ay . . . you've certain® taken on a load of disillusionment the past few days, Jo Darien!” “Perhaps it's time. Perhaps (I've been just a silly young fool of a girl, Tubby.” 1 But Tubby shook her head du biously. She didn’t like to sce Jo |so bitter, so set against every thing. It wasn't, she knew_ the true Jo Darien. Tubby wondered ' what had happened now: and she wondered, too, if something might happen soon to shake Jo loose |from her hitterness. Tubby had her own ideas about what that something would be, but she kept her own counsel this morning. Her friend hadn’t been very open | to advice or suggestions recently. ‘l As she 'sat trying to think of | something which might Ilift her !from her mood, Babs Montgomery icame flitting into the ¢.ning roor | and caught sight of the two girls ,linstantly. Babs nodded brightly to Jo's “Good morning” and gave not the slightest heed to the ob vious fact that Tubhby's greecting was entirely noncommittal. “Mind if I join you?” Babs asked cheerfully. ‘Vlease do,” Jo invited, won dering at .the other girl's sud denly cordial attitude, “I'm not sure I can really eat anything,” Babs told them, laugh ing. “You see, i'm rather exciied —after last night.” She shrugged, taking up the menu. “But I sup pose it will wear off after a while."” . : Tubby made a queer sound with in her . throat. “I stayed at .the party until the janitor came in, and 1 didn't see anything unus ual last night. At least nothing that would make me lose my ap petite for breakfast. Give us *“ae lowdown, Babs.” “Oh, of course it might not seem important to you two,” Babs said. “But it's important to me —and to Dongias.” “Douglas?” repeated Tubby maddeningly. *“You mean Mr. Marsh “Of course. You see” Bats lezned forward confidentially, “we're going to be married!” " (To Be Continued) It has been found that eyelashes grow about one-twentieth of an inch each week. . 8 ; ; e ————————— ST 1,,— N g A n 1 SRS Two Large Cities in State Show Decrease In Drunken Driving MACON, GA.—(®)—With police reported cases of drunken driving decreasing in two of Georgia's largest cities since the May 15 re ferendum legalizing beer and wine, three other large cities report no appreciable change. A roundup of statistics and statements from city police depart ment heads showed Atlanta and Macon drunken dtiving cases de creasing, while Augusta, Columbus and Savannah reported practically no change. In Atlanta drunken driving cases dropped from 100 in may to 87 in June, July figures had not been offi cially reported. The figures also showed a decrease in Macon since May 15.. The percentage was ex pressed in decimals. Saying that “legilization of beer and wine in Georgia had little or no effect upon drunken driving in Macon,” police Chier Ben T. Wat kins added, however, that “Liquor traffic and drunkenness here have increased about 20 per cent” since the repeal of the national prohibi tion law. Chief T. O. Sturdivant, of At lanta agreed with Chief H. W. Cornett, of Columbus, that “in creases in the number of cases of drunken driving made since beer's legalization are due to a more rigid enforcement of traffic ordinances.” Columbus had an increase of five cases of drunken driving from May 15 to July 15 as compared to March 15 to -May 15. The com parison was 49 to 45. A compari son for the same periods showed Columbus had 660 cases of drunk enness the two months prior to referendum and 564 for the two following mon'ths. Captain of Police John J. Clancy, of Savannah, stated he “did not notice any increase in drunken drivers since May 15.” ! " At. Augusta, Traffic Lieutenant F. L. Fallaw said 'there was no noticeable ¢change in drunken driv ing figures gince the referendum, but he blamed liquor for the ma jority of accidents on highways and city streets. INJUNCTION STARTED MIAMI, Fla. — (#) — A preli minary injunction holding the pro cessing tax section of the AAA un constitutional and preventing col lection of the tobacco tax from the F. W.
