- CATTUNS COMMENT |
I By BRUCE CATTON l
e g
" When J. P. Morgan let his hair down and allowed |
that some 30,000,000 Americans—meaning, we take
it, 6,000,000 American families—are far enough “up
in the bucks” to be able to keep a maid, he started
something.
' First he set people wondering whether employment
‘of a. maid automatically puts one in the leisure
clags—which, if it does, will come as a stunning
surprise to a lot of hard-worked housewives.
. Next, he jarred a good many people into trying
‘to figure out just how widely the material blessings
of civilization are distributed in this country.
How many Americans, in other words, have ac
tually laid their hands on those little luxuries and
‘conveniencies that go to smooth out the rough
places in the business of living? How near are we
to having a large, well-distributed leisure class?
How do we really stand on such matters, as maid
service and automobiles, telephones and radios, and
80 on?
Figures are hard to get. In the matter of domes
tie servants, we have only the statistics compiled
for the vear 1930 by the National Indusrial Con
ference Board. These show that in that year there
were 6,121,000 Americans engaged in domestic and
personal service. Of these, substantially more than
half were women—maids, laundresses, cooks, house-I
keepers and the like, I
The United Stateg contains—or did contain on
January 1, 1934—16,710,85, telephones, 20,760,000 ra
dio receiving sets, and 21,604,000 passenger automo
biles. .Of our 6,228000 farm homes, some 995,000
were equipped with running water and 841,000 had
electric lights and power.
Slightly more than 32,000,000 ordinary life insur
ance policies are in force; some 14,000,000 Ameri
cans have money on deposit in savings banks; and
in 1084 some 3,660,000 Americans made enough mon
ey to file income tax returns.
Lump all thege statisticg together and you get—
what? A picture of the America of today, with
rough outlines of the state of well-being of the
average man,
While we seem. to fall a long way short of Mr.
Morgan's 30,000,000 pegple in our leisure class, we
nevertheless do present a . pretty fair general level.
America today contains Sthtly fewer than 30.-[
000,000 families. Glancing at the statistics quoted
abowe, wo find that better than half of our families
kave telephcnes and more than two-thirds enjoy
such com*ori; as radios and autos.
»u is pretty cleir that not more than one family
in 10 has a maid; and the income tax figures indi
cato,{lhat about the same proportion enjoyed enough
income to pay a tax on it.
Th}s could be a great deal better; it could also
be & great deal worse, We may not have reachedi
the ‘level hopefully suggested by Mr, Morgan, butl
we'-fg,g'e getting within shouting distance of it,—eu-’
peciaily when you remember that these figures Werel
- taken at the fag end of our worst depression, I
Vfifi?hen a Mount Holly, N. J., driver asked for relil
storation of his automobile license, forfeited a year
agé, Arthur DMpgee, state mofor vehicle head, toid |
him, “All right, but you've got to have a governor
on your aar.”
*:‘~the autoist agreed to the unprecedented regu
lation and got his license restored to him. The gov
:mlll keep his car moving faster than 40 miles
fl%& it appears, is a practical weapon for fighting
thg:med menace. There may be some question in
many states as to the legality of requiring gover
mfld“ existing statutes. But that ought to be
e 3
ensi :;adj‘used. The point is, in the use of gover
nots, speed control could be guaranteed at all times.
I for such regulation wag aptly put recently
by iy 'i‘om Berry of South Dakota. Commenting
on'the increasing hazards of automobile speeds the
xXecutive said: “There may be too many governors

INSURE AGAINST DEPRESSION
| Roger W. Babson, one of the greatest
'a.uthor.lbes in the nation on statistics of
| financial 2nd economic affairs and secu
\rity investinents, writes encouragingly on
lprcbent conditions and views the next
yvear or two as the most promising since
prosperous times prior to 1929 for invest.
ments in stocks, bonds and other securi
ties. In the opening paragraph of his
| weekly letter, which is considered a crite
‘rion for investors to go by, Mr. Babson
says:
| ‘“Current interest in security markets
Ibrings back memories of 1928. Volume of
trading is highest in several years. Stock
!prices have advanced to a new peak since
1931. Bond prices are at record highs.
Interest in ‘cats and dogs’ is picking up.
Tips are being freely passed around. In
fact, the whole situation resembled the
‘good old days’ even though basic condi
tions are far sounder today than they
were then.” |
Predicting conditions to be sounder to-I
| day than they were six years ago, Mr.
| Babson continues: |
| “Right now business is in a recovery
period but it is still below normal (10 per
cent below, according to the Babson
chart.) Therefore, I feel that we are in a
reriod when many securities can stiil he
purchzsed advantageously. With the out-I
lonk for better business during the next
year or two, every indicator points to‘
'higher stock prices. There will be, of
course, intermediate periods of reactions;l
lbut the market is still in a fundamental
upward swing. Carefully selected stocks‘
(and T cannot over-emphasize the import
lance of selection) should sell much hlgherl
before the movement culminates.” '
| One of the greatest dangers now facing'|
investors is that of inflation, for which
'Mr. Babson offers a remedy of diversifica
tion of investments in stocks and bonds.
‘His suggestions are sound and, if follow
ed, the investor will find a protection
safer than that of mere buying on the
lowering of the market price. For over a
quarter of a century, Mr, Babson has de
voted his time and talents in a study of
financial and economic questions. His
views and predictions have proved of
great value to the investor as well as to
the holder and seller of stocks and bonds
of all kinds.
ATLANTA POLICE MUDDLE
From news reports, the police depart-‘
ment of Atlanta must be surging withl
graft and corruption. From the highest
office down to the turn-key officer,
charges of some kind of a derogatory
character have been filed against these
officers, and all are alleged to be true.
The members of the police committee
of council have worked diligently in their
efforts to ferret out and clear up the
charges preferred against these officers.
The charges, as published, are colorful,
and, if true, the offending-officers should
he dropped from the service.
Chief Sturdivant has been at the head
of the police department for a number of
vears, Prior to his promotion from the
ranks of patrolmen, he had served in that
capacity for a long number of years. His
record has been clean and his reputation
above reproach. Too often, faithful and
conscientious officers suffer from having
performed their duties in dealing with
violators of the law and especially with
the chronic criminal, We are not acquaint
ed, of course, with conditions in Atlanta,
but we believe that when the cases against
Chief Sturdivant and Assistant Chief La
mar Pool have been sifted down, with
out prejudice or political favor or dislike,
‘these offieers will not only be vindicated
of the charges, but will be restored to
their former offices. -
GEORGIA PEANUT INDUSTRY
It will be of interest to the pzople of
this state to learn that Georgia is one of
the largest peanut producing states in the
nation and that Dawson is the world’s
lar&,est peanut center.
hen ravages of the boll weevil de
vastated South Georgia’s cotton crop, it
was the peanut crop that saved the farm
ers of that section. Of course, when the
acreage of the peanut crop was reduced,
the crop naturally failed to measure ub
to former production, but in 1935, the 12
peanut producing states totaled 1,256,-
920 acres, and benefit payments in Geor
e amountad to approximately $1,030,-
078.
The Dawson News, 'in commenting on
the peanut crop in Terrell county, said:
“Pawson is the world’s largest peanut
center. During the busy season a weekly
payroll of approximately $3,000 is paid te
employes of the two shelling plants oper
ated in this city, and in 1934 one-third of
the total crop of Spanish peanuts crushed
in the United States were crushed here.”
The peanut has grown to be one of the
most important industries and products in
this state. It is stated that there are 284
different products derived from the ‘man
ufacture of the peanut. When fed to hogs,
the peanut produces a superior meat, es
pecially what is known as the “peanut
ham.” It has a taste and flavor that has
given it prestige over all hams raised in
other sections of the nation.
Sulphonated oil is recommended by the
University of Wisconsin as a protection
against damage of trees and shrubs by
rats and mice.
In England, during the early part of the
nineteenth century, it was customary to
state whether tea and sugar were furnish
ed with the wages when advertising for
house servants, :

Grateful and Courteous Amateurs Find
Time to Express Thanks to Athenians
The Amateurs, too well known
here now to have to be identified
as Unit No. 2 of Major Edward'
Bowes traveling troups, pulled outl
of Athens this morning, bound for |
Macon and further triumphs. [
And they toek with them a most
favorable impression of this city’
and its people, as shown by the
gracious telephone message the |
Banner-Herald received from Ma
jor Fred Marshall, just before the
bus got underway.
“I" want to thank you folks for
your cooperation in making our
visit so pleansant from a social
standpoint and such a success[
from the number of persons who |
attend our five shows. Never.l
(and I am not just giving out a;
“usual line of praise’) have we
been accorded such a welcome
that struck us as so genuinely
sincere and true. We shall always
remember Athens and the friendly
spirit of its people. Please thaps
them for Major Bowes , myself
and the Amateurs.”
Yesterday afternoon the Ame
teurs were personal guests of A
D. Robertson, Lucas & Jenkins
representative here, at a delight
ful chicken barbecue in the Legion
ILOS Cabin. Barbecued chlcken,‘
' chicken hash, sweet potato pie
and the accessories delighted the
{Amateurs. only two of whom has
ever partaken of any.
l Frank Mitchell was master of
Icemmonles at the informal gath
ering and created a lot of fun by
refusing to furnish knives for the
pie. The barbecue was prepared
under Mr. Mitchell's direction and
it was delicious, and the entire
party was something new for the
, Amateurs.
!I Late Monday the Amateurs de=
scended on the Banner-Herald te
get clippings of the stories that
this paper had published, for their
press books. They were a happy
lot and seemed extremely appre
ciative to the paper for its help
and to the citizens generally.
Meyer Goldberg, whistler-extra
ordinary, elected himself spokes
man for the group and said that

THE PRESIDENTIAL
CAMPAIGN
(Continued From Page One) '
1t includes, for one thing, a coali
‘tion of certain industrial and bus?-
ness forces. !
Such organizations as the United|
States chamber of commerce and|
the National Association of Manu-‘
facturers have joined in the denun
ciation of New Dear activitles..
~ The factor of industrial and fi
nancial opposition to the New Deal
is found, too, in the leadership of
Ithe American Liberty League.
' The Liberty League, as persist-l
ent a critic of the New Deal as|
‘the Republican’ National commit
‘tee, also provides an outlet for the
lactivities of such anti-New Deal
il)emocrats as Alfred E. Smith, for

Massachusetts, Jouett Shouse and
John W. Davis, the 1924 Democratic|
presidential candidaxe, ‘
In the southern states, Governot}
Eugene Talmadge, of Georgia, hasi
found the support of some of the
leaders of the Louisiana organiza-I

There are many Democrats, op
posed to certain policies and acti
vities of the New Deal, who have
refused to join in the work of the
Liberty League or in other organi
zed anti-New Deal campaigns. Out
standing among these is Carter
Glass, the veteran senator from
Virginia.
Just as itg policies have swept
over partisan lines in creating op
position, so have these . policies
gained adherents from other rank.-;i
than Democratic. |
For example, Republican senators:
like Georg W. Norris and Hiram
Johnson are expected to carry the
Roosevelt banner in the campaign,‘
so is the Wisconsin Progressive,
“Young Bob"” LaFollette, I
The New Deal, furthermore, has
broken through the traditional non
partisanship of affiliates of organ
‘lzed labor. The United Mine Work

Trial of Dr. M. B. Allen
Will Get Underway in
Jefferson Wednesday
(Continuea From Page One)
—_—
the shooting of Mrs. Allen was an
accident, the defense is expected
to introduce the testimony of Mrs.
Maggie Lee Davis, 17, a niece of
Mrs. Allen. She was an eye-wit
ness to the shooting and Dr. Al
len said she will testify Mrs.
Allen was accidentally wounded.
Dr. Allen asserted efforts had
been made to spirit Mrs. Davis
Davis away and that she had
otherwise been disturbed and mo
lested. Mrs. Davis was making her
home with the Allens at the time
of the shooting.
The Allen’s young son, Myron,
jr., 4 years of age, was also a
witness to the fatal wounding of
his mother. At the time, the
youngster was studying a toy cat
alogue for the benefit of Santa
Claus, when his mother cahe home
from a moving picture show, the
doctor said. He and his son had
been to a barbershop, Dr. Ailen
related. 5
“Myron was picking out that
cowhoy suit and that steam en
gine,” said the doctor, pointing to
the two objects, left on a cot in
his jail room by the youngster
during a visit to his father.
As to events which transpired
directly after Mrs. Allen entered
the room, Dr. Allen was mute.
But earlier, a defense attorney,
Early C. Stark of Commerce, Ga..
had given this deseribption of the
shooting.
Mrs. Allen, on entering the
room, asked heér husband, said
Stark, to move a pistol on a bed
table, out of reach of .the boy. As
the doctor reached for the gun,
he picked it up in hig right hand
and moved away from the bed,
caught . one foot on a cot which
was used by the hdy, stumbled,
looped his right arm around one
post of the bed and the gun was
discarged, the attorney asserted
the defense would show.
As to the prosecution theory of
the shooting, but little has been
disclosed since the taking out of
the warrant against 'the doctor by
S. L. Richie, a brother of ‘the
dead woman. * -
In addition to Solicitor General
Pratt. the prosecution will be rep
resented by T. L. Bynum and J.
ww. Frankum, of Clarké&sville.
Defense attorney Stark will
have the assistance of P. Cooley
of Lawrenceville and Joe Quillian
of Winder.
Dr. Allen has an unbarred room
at the jail, as an ‘“honor” prison
er. Although his detention ha:
'made him pallid, he did not ap
pear dispirited.
Commenting upon his friends
he said:
“They're sticking by me.”
