Lane Hubbard
Southern Bell
Head In State
ATLANTA, Jan. 13.—Claude J.
Yates, Georgia manager for Sou
thern Bell Telephone and Tele
graph Company, has been ap
pointed Kenfucky manager, with
headquarters in Knoxville, it
was annocunced today.
Lane Hubbard, present Atlanta
district manager, has been named

effective February 1.
Mr. Hubbard, like Mr. Yates,
is a telephone man of wide ex
perience, well qualified to as
sume his new responsibilities as
head of Southern Bell's commer
cial operations in Georgia. His
association with Southern Bell
dates from 1921 when he entered
the company’s employ in Atlan
ta. He gained wide experience in
a variety of assignments and in
1938 was appointed District Com
mercial Engineer. During the per
iod that followed he served suc
cessively as office manager and
manager in the Atlanta district
organization, and in 1943 was ap
pointed Division Commercial Su
pervisor for SGeorgia. He became
Atlanta Bistrict Manager in Au
gust, 1947.
Member of Bar
An interesting sidelight on Mr.
Hubbard’s busy career is the fact
that he managed to find time to
attend the Atlanta Law School,
where he graduated in 1934 with
the degree of Bachelor of Laws
and was admitted to the' Georgia
bar, His appointment to the po
sition of Georgia manager is the
culmination of a series of ad
vancements, all of which have
occurred in his native state of
Georgia.

. “ By D. L. BRANYON
County Agent
(Note: This is the second of a
series of articles on the County
Agricultural Program.)
In surveying the market situa
tion for farm products for this sec
tion we find that we have good
markets for cotton, milk and live
stock and that our market for sur
plus grain, poultry, and eggs and
other farm produce is inadequate.
We recognize the fact that sat
risfactory marketing of farm pro
ducts is as important as the pro
tduction of crops. Also, it is our
!opinion that the matter of satis
factory markets is important to all
of our people, the buyer as well as
the seller, to the business man as
well as the farmer, and that a so
lution of our farm marketing prob
lems imposes a responsibility on
both groups. -
Recommendations:
Better Quality
That farmers produce as high
Guality farm products as possible
for the market. :
That farmers be educated in the
production of 'high quality pro
ducts and that consumers be edu
cated to demand high quality pro
ducts. |
That farmers patronize and sup
port local markets with their cot
ton, milk, livestock and other farm
products. |
That every assistance possible
be given in the establishment of a
good grain market and a market
for poultry and eggs. This Com
mittee wishes specifically to en
courage the interest in a grain
elevator for this section and of
markets for poultry and eggs.
That the Commissioner of Agri
culture be asked to construct the
State Farmers Market Building
here in Athens immediately.
That when the State Farmers
Market is built that meetings of
farmers be held in counties in this
vicinity to assure uniform produc
tion of crops for the market.
We recommend to the State Di
rector of Extension work that a
special agent be appointed to work
with farmers in the several coun
ties in this section who will sell at
the State Farmers Market to as
sist in the production of uniform
crops for the Market.

Mr. Yates, the new XKentucky
manager, started his telephone
career in New Orleans in 1920,
and through the years steadily
advanced to positions of inereas
ing responsibility. Much of his
service has been in Atlanta where
he was Division Commercial En
gineer for Georgia from- 1925 to
1930. After holding a similar post
in Alabama, he returned to At-
Iznta as General Commercial
Engineer in 1942, and during the
fcllowing year was premoted to
General Commercial Supervisor
where he remained until his ap
pcintment as Georgia manager in
September, 1947.

U. S. Post Office Changes Letter Slots
So You Can’t Gab With Postal Clerk
'i BY DOUGLAS LARSEN |
NEA Staff Correspondent
i WASHINGTON.— (NEA) —Not
catisfied with raising its rates to
iry to get out of the red, the U.
S. Post Office Department is now
trying to make its clerks more
lvefficient by keeping them from
‘gassing with the customgrs and
stooping over more than is nec
| essary.
| This latest idea is really the
brain-child of government archi
tect Gilbert Stanley Underwood,
whese job it is to meke govern
\ment buildings as streamlined as
possible.
| A short time ago Underwood
thappened to be in a post office
lin a small town in upper New
‘York. The mail had just arrived
and the clerks started to sort it
linto the post office boxes.
I “A large crowd of townspeople
ywere there to get the mail from
Talmadge Names
. .
Write-In Chief
.
To State Office
ATLANTA, 'Jan. 13—(AP) —
Stanley W. Brooks, appointed to
‘a state post, was spotlighted by the
Atlanta Journal today as the man
responsible for Herman Tal
madge’s write-in votes in Telfair
county in 1946.
The write~<in~wotes* were “the
margin young Talmadge needed
;to get the legislature to name him
governor after the death of his
father, Eugene Talmadge.
- The elder Talmadge died a few
‘weeks before he was to také over
as the state’s chief executive.
The State Supreme Court en
tered the case, while Georgia had
two gubernatorial claimants, to
declare Lt. Gov. M. E. Thompson
should serve two years as gov
ernor.
Talmadge yesterday apponnted
three men, including Brooks, to
the State Personnel Board to su
pervise the merit system in the
Health, Welfare and Labor De
partment.
Brooks was one of the three
1946. election holders in Helena
p&cinct. |
The voters’ list from that pre
cinct, the Journal said, showed
that persons long dead, moved
away or non-existent were voted
in the election. The last 34 names
on the voter’s list were in alpha
betical order.
The 48 write-in votes from that
precinct, along with 10 other
write-in votes from another Tel
fair county precinct, were not
found until the reports of all
other counties had been tabulated
by the General Assembly.
They provided the margin on
which the “Assembly based its
election of Herman as governor,
later to have the State Supreme
Court rule the election void.
Brooks signed the precinct re
turn.
The Journal story today added:
“Later. his brother,. W. O,
Brooks, clerk of the Telfair coun
ty Superior Court, told the Jour
nal that Stanley Brooks was re
sponsible for all the write-in
votes Herman Talmadge received
in Helena precinct.”

their boxes and what I saw cer
tainly surprised me; I never im
agined the letter drop would be
put to such use,” Mr. Underwood
said. “You know most everybody
knows each other in a small
town. So when they knew the
clerks were distributing the mail
in back of the partitions, various
men stooped before the letter
drop, pushed back the flap, rec
cgnized the pants of George or
Joe, the ¢lerks, and yelled in,
‘George, give me my mail here.
I'm in a hurry.’
“Of course he knew George
and George obligingly stopped
his work to give the man his
mail”
Underwooed saw how this prac
tice delayed the. work of the
clerks anad was a nuisance.
He also noticed that the old
style letter drop prompted per
sons to shoot in their letters with
iorce to be sure they reached the
other side.
“They reached the other side
all right, way on the other side,
over the receptacle that is sup
posed to catch them, and landing
on the iloor,” Underwood said.
“Picking up the letters from the
floor was another headache for
‘the post office clerks.”
I As a result of Underwcod’s
chance observations in that post
office the Public Buildings Ad
‘migg}ngfiun, the agency that em
' ploys him, is putting into use all
over the country a new Kkind of
letter drop that will not permit a
person to stoop and talk through
to the clerks. And the new de
vice makes sure that a letter will
drop into the receptacle on the
cther «cide, regardless of how
hard it is thrust in. It is beveled
on the inside, blocking off a vicw
of the other side and directing
the letter’s course upward No
matter how hard- it is pcked in it
merely goes up into the air ahd
falls into the receptacle. |
