UDC Book
On Stamps
Published
The United Daughters of the
Confederacy, in co-gpetatlon with
The Dietz Press of Rithmond, Va,,
has published its latest hand-book
titled ‘“The Confederate States
Post - Office Department Its
Stamps and Stationery” by August
Dietz, Sr.
The new volume was not only
written but designed by the elder
Dietz, noted philatelist and student
of the Confederate Post-Office De
partment. Some years afo he com
pleted the monumental work on
the same subject, which today, is
considered the “bible” of collectors
of Confederate issues. Since the
publication of his first huge his
tory reflecting thirty years of re
search, he has edited, every five
years, an exhaustive catalog of the
stamps of the “Lost Cause”.
The present hand-book of the
U. D. C. is a remarkable condensa
tion of this authority's earlier
work. It describes the Confed
eracy’s Post-Office Department;
Secession and Confederation; the
trying period of organization; John
H. Rsagan, PostmasteriGeneral:
the so-called “Stampless Period”;‘
the War Governments of the Con
federacy and of the United States;
the first Confederate stamp nnli
all of the succeeding issues with
full descriptions and many his
torical and illuminating faets con
cerning each.
The author leaves no stone un
turned in this unique and con
densed history which is of interest
to the stamp collector and layman
alike. He tells about essays sub
mitted by bidders which were re
jected;” the delightful story of a
foreign - printed Confederata
stamp; another that was prepared
but never issued; the first copper
plate stamp; the real classic of the
Confederacy; the first steelplate
stamps, and many other interesting
facts and stories on the South’s
stamps and stationery.
But stamps are not all that it to
be found in this latest hand-book
of the U. D. C, The author gives
the human, fascinating stories of
the men and firms that printed the
stamps—Charles Ludwig of Hoyer
& Ludwig, the house of Thomas
de la Rue & Co., Ltd. of London,
Archer & Daly of Richmond, and
J. T. Paterson of Columbia, S. C.
and Augusta, Ga.—craftsmen of
the past who helped write this
record of achievement.
Near the end of the book, Mr.
Dietz has answered the question:
“What became of the principals,
stones and plates of the Confed
eracy?”
Along with the delightful and
appealing story as only this South
ern philatelist-author can tell it
the book is profusely illustrated
with stamps, portraits, seals of the
Confederate States, a glossary of
philatelic terms, the Great Seal of
the Confederacy—and, above all,
two full pages of the general issues
of the stamps in their origihal
colors.
The introduction to the hand
book was written by Mrs. Virginia
Ferguson Cary, Historian-General
of the United Daughters of the
Confederacy.

Hydrant Breaks;
.
Children Happy
Children living in the vicinity of
the intersection of Milledge avenue
and Peabody street are still happy
today over an accident that hap
pened Tuesday.
Water spurted out of a fire
hydrant after a Railway Express
truck backed over the hydrant
and knocked it out of the ground,
thus creating a pool in which the
children went wading.
According to City Engineer Jack
Beacham the hydrant was hit at
10:30 in the morning and was fix~
ed, including the replacement of
broken parts with new parts, by
one o'clock that afterhoon. This
work deemed as “speedy” by Mr.
Beacham was done by Robert Les
ter, city plumber for the water
works department.
This occurance is unusual, said
Mr, Beacham, as the hydrants
usually break off and don’t 'Tet
out much water, but this hydrant
was knocked out of the ground.
