MRS. J. F. WHITEHEAD
MOTHERS HONORED
IN ATHENS TODAY
Nother’s Day is an especially appropriate day on which to pay trib
ute to Athens’ beloved Mrs. J. F. Whitehead, above, who was selected
by the Golden Rule Foundation as Georgia's “Mother of the Year for
1949," and was succeeded by Mrs, Richard Brevard Russell, sr., Win
der, widow of the Chief Justice of the Georgia Supreme Court, as
Georgla’s “Mother of the Year for 1950.”
Below u\a tribute on this day to all mothers:
MOTHER’'S DAY
BY FRANK CARLE:I‘ON NELSON
This is the day we honor “Mother,”
Sweetest name of fongue or pen,
And we pay our highest tribute
And we pledge our love again;
Songs of “Mother” we are singing,
Naught but tender words are said,
And it’'s Mother’s flower we're wearing,
For the living and the dead.
Grand and noble is the purpose,
Great the meaning of the day;
Inspiration seems to guide us
in the things we do and say.
Thoughts and words are for her,
And the good that she has wrought,
Born of love and admiration for the
Lessons she has taught.
Lofty purpose, noble meaning,
Sweetest day of all the year,
Only good is represented in the
Name of “Mother dear.” $
And if right would rule the nations
And the will of God be done,
We should follow Mother’s teachings
Every day instead of one, .

Rail Peace Confab [Fails:
Woalkout Still Spreading
" Picket Lines Set Up To Halt
' Traffic On Pennsylvania Line -
CHICAGO, May 13, — (AP) — Government mediators
brought both sides together in a joint conference today as
tvlere locomotive firemen’s strike spread in the East and
est.
The meeting broke up without a settlement, but Franecis
A. O’Neill, jr., chairman of the National (Railway) Media
tion Board, said:
“We said there was a deadlock yesterday. Today all we
can say is that the case is not settled.”
O’Neill said there was a full and
frank discussion of all issues and
the conference have returned to
their own groups for further dis
cussion.
‘ He declined to say whether
there were any new proposals ad
vanced, but said there will be ad
ditional conferences held later.
But even as the union represen
tatives were attending the confer
ence, the Brotherhood of Locomo
tive Firemen and Enginemen ex
tended its strike to the Southwest
ern District of the Union Pacific
Railroad and sought to cut the
Pennsylvania Railroad’s opera
tions in the east and south.
The move had the effect of
stretching the strike operations
from coast to coast, although only
a relatively few trains are in
volved.
The Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen ‘and Enginemen directed
its members to refuse to man Un
ion Pacific trains over 100 miles
of track between Daggett and San
Bernardino, Calif.,, starting to
night. The union said these tracks
are owned by the strike-crippled
Santa Fe System.
The union also set up picket
lines at its important division
point of Harrisburg, Pa., in an ef
fort to halt eastbound traffic to
Philadelphia and New York and
S'Ol(llthw tx'afl.i‘cl:l to Baltimore
an n. The union charg
ed the PR% violated a “neutrali
ty agreement,” by operating
freight traing in strike territory
with supervisory personnel.
PRR spokesman at Philadelphia
said the picket lines ‘“did not dis
turb” train operations east of Har
risburg.
The railroad said 21 freight
trains were operated west and
north of Harrisburg today — 11
more than yesterday.
“It is anticipated that freight
service can be further increased
tomorrow with every effc.t being
made to provide some service to
industry and business along the
Pennsylvania lines,” the spokes
man said.
Normally, the PRR operates
some 1,500 freights north and west
of Harrisburg. :
The strike of 18,000 firemen was
called Wednesday against parts of
the Pennsylvania, New York Cen
tral, Senta Fe and Southern Rail
Systems. The union is demanding
a second firemen on big diesel lo
comotives and a fireman on little
switch diesels.
The four-day strike already has

Big Three End
LONDON, May 13—(AP)—The
Big Three Foreign Ministers end
ed a three-day cold war council
tonight confident the West can
build freedom into a dynamic
force that will secure defenses
against Communism and win pros=-
perity at the same time.
The whole sickle-shaped realm
of struggle ringing the Russian
led Communist world was the field
of their discussions.
“The ministers agreed upon the
main lines of their policy in all
parts of the world,” said a com
munique—the fifth and longest
since Secretary of State Dean
Acheson, British Foreign Secre
tary Ernest Bevin and French
Foreign Minister Robert Schuman
began their deliberations.
They expressed determination
to fight “Communist Imperialism”
in southeast Asia with firm en
couragement and support for new
independent states there.
The three ministers decided to
set up a committee of experts to
consult with other interested gov
ernments, particularly Germany
and Italy, on increasing migration
from overcrowded Europe.

Thompson Charges Graft;
Talmadge Sees Landslide
. By The Associated Press ‘
. Gov. Herman Talmadge yester
day (Saturday) predicted his re
election by the greatest landslide
in Georgia history, while he and
Jormer Gov. M. E., Thompson
thundered charges of waste, graft
and dishonesty in state govern
ment.
Talmadge, warming up a bit in
his second rally of the two-weeks=
old campaign for Governor, shout=
ed at Statesboro that “a radical
crowd? is trying to destroy racial
segregation and the ccunty unit
| system,
He hit the 1947-48 Thompson
regime for “negotiated” highway
contracts which he said cost al
most twice as much as they should.
“I am going to haunt them with it
from every stump in Georgia,” he
declared. .
“We have been able to build the
same miles of road as the pre
ceding administration with only
two-thirds the money. That is a
severe indictment of their in
efficiency, gross negligence and
dishonesty, and we defy them to
reply to those figures.”
And from the hills of northeast
Georgia, in Gainesville, Thompson
said Talmadge is plotting a $175,-
000,000 annual state “spending
orgy” and a “political plundering
operation” by the Highway De
partment,
“Georgia cannot spend that
amount of money efficiently and
without waste and graft,? said
Thompson, who has made 44
speeches in the two weeks.
In fact, he said, 'l‘aigmdge al
ready has burdened the people
with $20,000,000 more in taxes and
has shown nothing for it but “2,-
000 more employes on the state
payroll . . . we will get the dead=
beats off. Drones do not make
honey.
“There has been no increase in
essential public services. Tcachers
are not getting any more. Old age
pensioners are getting less. Fewer
miles of roads have been graded
and pdved. The state has paid for
less construction in the colleges.
Waste Flayed
“Waste in public office is worse
than any other kind of waste. A
man is wicked who wastes other
people’s money.”
Talmadge said these employes
include 1,016 more teachers, doc=
tors and nurses to relieve “snake
pit” conditions at Milledgeville
Mental Hospital, doctors to care
for 200 more patients at Battey
Tuberculosis Hospital, highway
engineers and university profes

Symington Faces
Rationing s
WASHINGTON, May 13—(AP)
—One of the big questions con
fronting W. Stuart Symington as
the new mobilization boss is
whether to tool up now for war
time rationing and wage and price
controls. "
The controls would be on a
standby basis, for use if and when
war came. Along with them would
go a lot of other controls—over
employment, profits, sirikes and
ali the muscles, money and ma
terials needed for a war effort.
A bill to authorize again the
curbs and scrimping that went on
in the last war, and perhaps some
others, is ready. The National
Security Resources Board (NSRB)
of which Symington nas just be
come chairman, has drafted a one
package bill a quarter of an inch
thick,
The bill has been revised four
times and might be changed some
more. It could be split into several
bills.
But it could be sent to Congress
tomerrow if Symington, and Pres
ident Truman gave the signal.
