recent bride, Betty Grable of the films, are shown in a homey

SOUTHERN FREIcHT
MATES HANDICAP
GRANITE BUSINESS
Elberton Dealer Is
Witness at Hearing
In Birmingham Today
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.-—(/£)—Fed
eral rail rate ‘‘discrimination” was
listed today in testimony at an
Interstate Commerce Commission
hearing as the primary reason for
a ‘“great loss of Dbusiness by a
southern manufacturer in the mid
dle west.”
The ‘witness, Alex Park of St.
Louis, Mo, said “our customers
tell us our rates are not on a fair
competitive basis, and they buy
from eastern sources.
Park said he was sales counsel
lor for the Georgia Granite com
pany of Elberton, Ga., and had no
local competition for the mid
western business.
His testimony was in the sup
port of the contention of eight
southeastern states that existing
rail rates structures “strangle”
southern industry by penalizing
them in primary market areas.
Park’s description of the rate
factor in selling in the middle
west was followed by exact fig
ures on a 2,400-pound granite
monument, shipped from Elberton,
(ia., or from Barre, Vt. ’
Cleve Allen, npresident of the
Allen Granite company of Elber
ton, said the freight cost was a
huge handicap after the Inter
state Commerce Commission raised
freight rates for the south in 1934,
He said the monument in ques
tion would pay $27 freight from
Elberton, and only $21.50 from
Barre, although the Georgia point
is approximately 130 miles nearer
Chicago.
Allen estimated the cost of the
monument, in a finished state, at
SIOO, thus figuring his freight rate
handicap at more than five rercent
of the selling price.

Athens, Ca., Thursday, April 14, 1938,
Addressing the state meeting of
educators in its second day of ses
sions, Arnold said:
“We have worked out a plan
whereby you will receive sufficient
funds to pay your teachers 100 per
cent even though we have to Op
erate the other state agencies on
a 74 per cent basis, and this means
Dr., Colling' office too.”
Arnold told the men who dis
tribute fundg provided by the
state in the 159 counties, “we may

was $4,000,000 betier than for the
'like period a year ago.

in the western hemisphere ‘“to be

Speaking on Pan-American Day

naming it—and placed it on an
inter-American basis. His speech
was broadcast to all American re

Asserting that the 300,000 citizens

Easter Parade To
Feature Navy
Blue This Season
By MARY E. PLUMMER
NEW YORK.—(#)—The flower
jest, most teminine Easter parade
in many a year is ready to swing
down the avenues of the mation,
and at this stage it seems safe to
predict:
1. That the women’'s hats will,
as usual, set men agape.
2. That there’ll be a lot of good
old navy blue, notwthstanding all
the new grays, rusts, checks and
flower-sprigged prints.
Feminine finery, always the
focal point of the Easter parade,
since men turn out in much the
same thing year after year, is
frothy and lighthearted this sea
son, as an antidote to the som
ber international picture.
vVirtually no holds are barred
as to hats. There are the Gibson
Girl sailors swathed in veils with
waist-length ends, giddy littla
pill-boxes, clown cones, bonnets
and . shallow, tilte? bits of head
gear held on with an old-fashioned
snood.
The Easter hat horticultural dis
play ig prodigipus, Blooms rang
ing from bleeding hearts to those
big red roses that haven’t been
used much since pre-war days
trim hats this year.
Everything has light, gay
touches—even the gray man-tail
ored suit -which apparently is go
ing to be an Easter favorite. This
year it has a frilly lingerie blouse.
Shoes have cut-out toes, and
stockings are sheer enough to
show tinted toe-nails. There are
gloves in flower shades, and flow
er tints for fingernails.
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
heads the ranks that have chosen
navy blue. She bought a rainy day
outfit and one for fair weather,
both with dark blue as the basic
color.
