GOVERNMENT EDUCATING THE
DESERVING
One of the most deserving and bene
ficial agencies created by the Federal gov
ernment is the National] Youth Adminis-~
tration. This agency was created for the
purpose of aiding young men and women
to secure an education. Not so much as
a gift, but the provisions of the law re
quires the student to earn as much as pos
sible during the school term to repay the
amount of the loan. Wherever it is pos
sible, work of some kind is scured for the
student, either with their institution or in
outside avocations, " A
“ These students are now attending fifty
one institutions in this state with an en
rollment of one thousand four hundred
and ninety-six young men and women.
The NYA appropriates an allotment of
$22,440 monthly or a total annually in the
sum of $201,915 With this assistance,
these young men and womepn have been
enabled to secure an education which oth
erwise they would have failed to receive.
While the federal government has spent
billions of dollars for various projcts, we
do not know of any that has done more
good than the amount spent in the support
of the NYA and the CCC. These agencies
have reached a needy and deserving class
of young people who were unable to help
themselves are to secure employment
through which they could better their
condition,
We are not informed as to the number
of young people, students at the Univer
sity of Georgia, who are the beneficiaries
of this fund, but we presume that this in
dtitution has its full quota. In the vari
ous CCC in Georgia, there are several
young men from this city and county. At
one time there was a camp located in
Madison county, but for some reason it
was abandoned and those enlisted were
transferred to campg in other parts of the
state. However, so long as our hoys and
their families are receiving the benefits,
it is immaterial as to the location other
than the commercial value to the com
munity.
“DECENTRALIZATION OF INDUSTRY”
There is a movement among some of the
unionists in the east and west to prevent
the “decentralization of industry,” for the
reason that these people feel that it will
work a hardship on them and probably
cause them to move into another section
of the country or likely lose their jobs.
This movement on their part is purely a
puerile view and is not based on sound
judgment or good business.
On account of raw material, especially
cotton, a number of mills in the east have
moved to the cotton belt states where they
find it to be more profitable than in sec
tions wher the material must be shipped.
In such cases, these people would not
lose their jobs, but their employers would,
no doubt, be glad to move them and pay
them the same wage scale they received in
the states from which the plants moved.
In a great many towns and cities in the
country, special offers are made to pro
moters of new industries, free sites and
tax exemptions over a period of years, are
offered as an inducement. Sometimes
money is given and stock subscribed in
order to show the faith and interest of the
local people. Such propositions are com
mon in this section of the country and
have had much to do with influencing in
dustries to locate in the southern states.
The operatives in these mills have no
cause for fear in that the moving of the
plants from other sections to the South
will in any wise cause them to lose their
jobs or to have to work on a wage scale
lower than that is now being paid them.
RAISING STANDARDS FOR LAWYERS
~ In many of the states, the bar associa
tions have adopted resolutions seeking to
raise the standards of memberg of the bar.
In Florida, mo one can be admitted to
practice in that state who has not received
a high school education and a certain
number of years of study of the law. A
recent decision handed down by the Su
preme Court of that state, recites the law
and requirements for all applicants desir
ing to enter the practice of law in Flor
ida. - T Sl
In part, it reads:
“All applicants who begin their prep
aration for the bar examination after Jan
uary 1,-1938 will be requested to devote
a minimum of three years study and re
search in the prescribed fields of law,
such study and research to have done un
der the direction of a preceptor wholly or
ipartially in a law office, in a law school
approved by the court, or by combining
both of these.
“Every applicant must be a graduate of
a high school. It is recommended but not
required that the applicant be a graduate
of an approved college or university, and‘
upon producing such certificate can be
permitted to take the examination after
having devoted one and one half years in
the preparation for the bar examination.”
Practicioners should be persons of in
tegrtiy, character and a thorough knowl
edge of the law. For years, in this state,
it is said that the requirements for appli
cants to enter the practice of law was en
tirely too slack and that many were ad
mitted to the bar who were incompetent
and not of such character as the profes
sion sought. Like all professions and avo
cations, “black sheep” slip in and some
times cause embarrassment for those who
labor to hold the standard of the profes
sion to an excellency that will reflect
credit upon the association as well as the
profession. We are not informed as to the
rules and regulations governing the ad
mission of applicants to the bar in this
state, but the ruling of the judge in the
Supreme Court of Florida, impresses us
as being an advanced step in raising the
standards that would prove helpful to the
profession in Georgia or oihtitstes. o

DID IT EVER
OCCURTO U
In order to be qualified to
vote in the state election this
year, it is mecessary to regis
ter on or before the Bth of
May.
Minors becoming of age on or
before November 8, of this year,
are entitled to register and cast
their ballots, provided they regis
ter on the date stated in the fore
[gying, May 8. The number of reg
istered voters is not expected to
reach the abnormal figures of reg
istration of 1936. In that year,
there were more than two hundred
thousand voters in excess of any
previous year. No doubt thousands
of these registered were illegal and
if challenged would not have been
abolt to establish their eligibility.
i As will be recalled, Clarke
county had a bumper regis
tration, over a thousand more
than the normal registration
l or that number more than in
| past years.
. The same condition, however,
existed in practically all other
counties in the state., While this
vear will be one of interest and
excitement, it is not expected, it
will be a dull affair, but much
interest is bound to develop after
the state committee meets and
fixes the date for the closing of
entries and the primary election,
which will come during the early
part of September.
With the adjournrent of the
grand jury, evil doers can now
take a breathing spell until
October, at which time anoth-
er session will be functioning.
We are not informed as to local
conditions, but a generation ago,
when the grand juries met, there
were a number of the young men,
“sport” inclined, who always had
business out of town untii after
adjournment of the jury.ln those
days, poker 'was a popular game,
and a great many people, tne elite
of old Athens, indulged in the fas
cinating game. The chips were
not for large amounts and those
who did not lose were never broke,
but just over exercised—Kkeeping
out of gight of the baliff.

Rt
; . Rainy Days of Business L
Many of us “can still recall the days when
with painful deliberation we wrote in copy
books—“ Save something for a Rainy Day.”
: Probably no other adage has greater application
to business. That “something for a rainy day”
which business must have is called surplus.
’ Without it no business is secure. :
*
The financial statement of a large Georgia
: manufacturer showed an operating loss for the
o year. In discussion he was asked this question—
“lf you had closed your plant when business
began to fall off, how much money would you
have saved?” His answer was, “A quarter of a
million dollars.”
*
When we tabulate the money spent for relief
during the depression period, the contribution
of this manufacturer must be added. As a matter
: of fact he is merely a specific example. Ameri
can Business, made up of men like him, spent
during the period from 1930 to 1934 twenty-
S seven billion dollars over and beyond its income,
to keep the wheels of industry turning and to
_ provide employment for people.
\ Not that business should expect nor does it
e look for special praise for this expenditure, even

though it represents nearly three times all the
- money spent during the same ;
period. The important point is that business S
must be allowed to earn enough money to re- o
build that surplus and thus have something laid L
aside for another rainy day.
Especially is this true of the medium and 2y
smaller units of business because in many cases o
what they spent represented their total savings
—their surplus.
If the government has a deficit or makes an o
unusual expenditure, it can be and is replaced
through special or extra taxes. Business has no
such privilege. What it gets must be earned as
profits, and having been earned, business must
be permitted to save part of it as a protective
surplus. There will always be “rainy days.” :
A good bank is not cniy the financial heart w 0
of the community but also holds the obliga- o
tion of helping in any marner possible to T
