GEORGIA GOVERNOR |
- SAYS F.D.R. SHOULD i
CHECK ON “FACTS"’
: (Continued From Page One) f
check and double check on the
facts before they are released.
“To say the least of it, President
Roosevelt was a little careless inl
not checkimgmon the facts of the
. Georgia situation before replying
to the letter from = Congressman
Deen.”
% Deen Protested
Previously Deen had written thae
president protesting that Georgia
- was being grossly discriminated
against in the release of federal aid
- to common schools.
Talmadge ended his statement as
follows:
“I mailed the president a copy
of my reply to Congressman Deen
last night (in which Talmadge den
jed Mr. Roosevelt’s assertion.)
“The president should state to
the press that he was in error in
regard to the Georgia situation.
“Any news given out by the
. president receives much wider cir
. culation that news given out in the
. separate states.” |
MAY “HANDS OFF” !
WASHINGTON — () — While
Federal Roads Bureau Chief Thom- !
as H. MacDonald reiterated that noi
ecision has been made in the
keorgia highway fund controversy |
"there wags speculation today tha |
. President Roosevelt might wash
his hands of the affair and leave
.1t to MacDonald and Secretary
. Wallace to settle. In such event
. some observerg saw in likelihood
. that the state’s $19,000,000 might
. be spent through the counties and

Henry Cheatham, Field Representative of
The Red Cross, Speaks to Kiwanians Here
' By JACK REID
Henry Cheatham, traveling field
representative ‘of «+ the American
Red Cross who is giving life sav
ing jessons to the membhers of the
4-H club at Lake Kirota, stressed
the value of using available equip
ment when attempting to save a
drowning person as the guest
speaker at the luncheon-meeting
'of the Kiwanis club vesterday at
the Georgian hotel.
Mr. Cheatham pointed out that
there, are around 7,000 drownings
in the United States every year,
and that most of them result from
people swimming for fun. Boys be
tween 15 and 19 years of age head
the drowning list. Perhaps this is
due to boys of this age having
more chances to swim, and being
more venturesome,
Of all the deaths, according to
the speaker, over 60 per cent oc
cur within 20 or 30 feet of the
shore. Many of these could be
prevented, Mr. Cheatham added,
if others present would only use
what material was on hand.
The speaker told how the Red
Cross teaches primarily for its pu
pils to use equipment, and not the

daring and heroic water rescue by
'pulling 2 man .in when another
' way is ,pessible. :
| He also praised the way that
the Red Cross instructions on
water safety and life saving are
standardized. Through this great
standardization it is possible for
two instructors, even if they are
from far scattered points of the
country, to unite and teach a
course together without any trou
ble — which is one of the great
points about Red Cross lessons.
The work of volunteers was an
other fine point stressed by Mr,
Cheatham.
“The young men of every com
munity who assist og direct in les
sons on water safety and life sav
ing,”? he stated, “are doing. their
section a great geod.”
