Plans For Public
Library Here Are
Given At Meeting
m—
Plans for starting a public li
brary for Athens were announced
at the Executive hoard meeting of
the Athens Woman's Club here
Tuesday.
Under the leadership of Mrs.
John J. Wilkins. jr., work towards
establishment of a public library
has been going on for several
months, 1
The committee has been corre
spending with the Georgia Library
Commis¢ion and with the WPA
authorities who are launching a
state-wide library program. Last
week Mrs. Gertrude Crane, district
supervisor of WPA _libraries, vis
ited Athens, went o the situa
tion with Mrs. Wilkin% and with
the city authorities, d agreed
to supply a young woman trained
in library work to care for and
distribute the books as sOon as
they are collected and the nucleus
of a library started. Twenty-five
dollars per month to help with the
operating expenses of a library,
has been appropriated by the city.
The committee of the Woman's
Club is now collecting books, and
seeking a convenient down-town
location for housing them. Any
persons who are willing to give
books, either old or new, will ren
der a great service to the com
munity. Books not in good con
dition will be repaired. Magazines,
magazine subscriptions and cash
donations for the purchase of
books will be greatly appreciated.
Mrs. Wilkins has already received
twelve dollars in cash donations
for the library. A book plate bear
ing the name of the donor will
be placed in each volume. Gifts
of books or magazines can be
taken to the home of Mrs. Wilk
ins, 225 Milledge Circle, or some
member of the committee will
gladly call for them.
One interesting feature of the
project already in operation, is the
lending of +magazines collected and
catalogued last fall by Mrs, W. R.
Dunlap, educational chairman for
the Woman's club,s Through the
courtesy of the WMecGregor Com
pany, these magazines Were at
tractively bound, a twelve months’
geries in each volumn; and for
some weeks they have been in cir
eulation, being” distributed every
Saturday at the Curb Market.
There are files of Good House
keeping, American, National Geo
graphic, McCall's, Better Homes
and Gardens, Ladies Home Jour
nal, Forum and Reader's Digest.
Additional complete files of mag
azines will be gratefully received.
It is bélieved that the dream of
a public library for Athens has
long been near the hearts of
many of her public-spirited citi
zZens. Now that government aid
ig available, and the Woman’s
Club has had the courage and the
enthusiasm to undertake the pro
ject, it is hoped that other organi
zations and the general public will
be generous in their response, and
will give their hearty cooperation
towards the success of the plan.
Shortage of Goed
Cottonseed Reported
In Many Counties
Facing an acute ghortage of good
cottonseed, county agents in prac
tically every county in south Geor
gia report that they are either test
ing planting seed for farmers or
have helped work out arrangements
for getting the seed tested, Harry
L. Brown, director of the State
Agricultural Extension Service said
here today. .
Most of the seed tested so far
have germinated wvery poorly, and
the agents report that farmers
and business leaders in many com
munities are quite disturbed about
the situation. County Agent Dallag
Suprlock reports that the Dawson
oOil company is testing seed for
farmers in Terrell and surrounding
counties. About 300 samples have
been tested go far, and practically
all the geed-proved very poor for
planting.
The problem was presented to a
meefing of seed crushers in Macon
last week, and the crushers pass
ed a resolution setting up a free
seed-testing service for farmers,
and pledging their mills to ex
change any seed they have on hana
suitable to plant with farmers eor
sell them at cost.
H. W. Rankin, plant disease
weorker with the Agricultural Ex
tension Service, points out thart
only wilt-resistant varieties of cot
ton are adapted to south Georgia
‘and that poor seed of the right
variety will likely prove more pro=
fitable than unadapt2d seed. He
savs test the seed and then plant
enough ‘more to assure a good
stend, and he also advised treat
ing the seed to kill molds that
cause seed rot and damping off of
the young plants. .
Farmers can get further infor
mation about testing and treating
seed from their county agent.

HOUSE OF COMMONS
Indications Made in Note
Advising Necessity of
Revising Civil List
iS WORLD TOPIC
Asks That Possibility Be
Taken Into Account in
Reorganized List
BY BURDETTE T. JOHINS
(Associated Press Foreign Staff)
LONDON — {(#) — The possibi
lity that Edward VIII, bachelor
King of England, may marry was
officially announced in the house
of commons today in a message
signed by the king.
The unmarried status of Edward,
now 41 years old, long has been
an outstanding topic of conversa
tion in the British Empire and the
world at large. :
As Prince of Whales, he was term
ed “the world’s most eligible bach
elor.”
Neville Chamberiain, chancellor‘
of the exchequer, read a royal
message to the legislators in which
Edward pointed out the necessity‘
of revising the civil® list — the‘
amounts paid to the members of
the royal family.
Make Provision :
The royal message stated: ‘“His
Majesty desires that the contin
gency of his marriage shovld be
taken into account so that, in thatg
event, there should be a provision
for her majesty the queen-and she
members of his majesty's family,
corresponding to the provisions
which the commong has been will
ing to make in like circumstances
in the past.” ‘
The labor party member, Wmiam‘
James Thorne, immediately rosei
with the question: l
“Does his Majesty give any as
surance that he is going to get
married?”
But Chamberlain did not ans
wer, ; FF B
Duke of York
King Edward also requested the
house of commons to make ‘“suit
able provisions” for the Duke of
York, heir presumptive to the
throne, “and in certain events, for
hig family.”
He said, however, that he would
hear part of these expenses from
the Duchy of Cornwall, the rich
estate which for hundreds of years
has been administered for the bene
fit of the Prince of Wales.
The message sald: “It is, how
ever, hig majesty’s intention, as
long as the revenues from the
Duchy of Cornwall are vested in
himself, to make that provision for
his royal highness, the Duke of
York, and, insofar -2s those reven

PARIS—A high source declared
today France will quit the League
of Nations wunless Great Britain
backs her demand that Reichs
fuehrer Hitler withdraw hig
troops from the Rhineland.. N
This source stated Plerre-Eti
enne Flandin, France's foreign
minigter, will take a warning of
such possible action with him
when he goes to London tomor
row for a conference of Locarno -
treaty signatories.
Officials said Flandin was pre
pared to tell Anthony Eden, Brit
ish foreign secretary, that France
was not alone in her stand against
further occupation of the Rhine
land by German troops.
Comine in 2 Years
An authoritative spokesman de
clared: ; §
“We know war is coming in two
years anyhow. We might as well
have it now, while we are pre
pared.
“The only way in whiech Hit
ler's troops will leave the Rhine
land s fr the Locarng |
to drive them out, but a stitch in
time saves nine.” f o e
The official added: “There
comes a time when a nation re
fuses to be humiliated in front of
the world. F¥French +honor is at
stake and ‘are ready to draw the
sword if necessary to keep it un
sullied.” e ¢ Spgeu A
The French attitude was de

Potemkin of Soviet Rusgia, the
nation with which France. signed
the military assistance pact upon
which Hitler stated he based his
denunciation of the Locarno

Prevent Death of League
French officials said that it was
necessary that Great Britain back
France at this moment in order to
prevent “the death of the League
of Nations.” e
The determination of the French
to convince the world that they
mean business was reflected in
the strong language of officials.
