Arthur Trassierra, 1410 Desire
st., sexton at the St. Vincent De-
Paul Cemetery in New Orleans,
La., thinks a sick man is a mighty
poor man but a man in the pink of
health is wealthy as can be. Mr.
Trasierra says-he is worth plenty,
thanks to HADACOL, for he
learned that - his system lacked
Vitaming 81, 82, Niacin, and Iron
which HADACOL contains, .. ;
Here is Mr. Trasierra’s own
statement: “I had. been sick for
somé time. The trouble mainly
was in nry stomach. I was unable
to eat any fried food at all. I was
very m—:rvout;}l and it affected my
work. Now that I have been tak
ing HADACOL my stomach_is:in
tip. top condiggn and';‘-myhne'ryes
are just fine. My appetite has im
proved, too, and fried foods are
on our menu at least several-times
a week. That’s = because I have
been taking HADACOL—and: you
can bet your life I won’t stop tak
ing ‘'HADACOL. 1 never tire of
telling my friends how wonderful
HADACOL is.” ° i
What HADACOL Does
HADACOL helps’ to build up
the hemoglobin content of your
blood (when Iron is needed) to
carry these precious Vitamins and
Minerals to every organ, and
every part of your body—to the
heart, liver, kidneys and lungs,
even to the eyes, hair and nails,
Countless thousands whose sys
tems were deficient in Vitamins
81, 82, Iron, and Niacin are bene
fitting from HADACOL . . . even
hundreds of doctors have recom
mended HADACOL to their pa
tients.
Give HADACOL a chance to
help you. Refuse substitutes.
Don’t let anyone tell you some
thing else is “gust as good.” Insist
on genuine ACOL. You risk
nothing because HADACOL is sold
only on a striet money-back guar
antee, You'll feel better with the
first few bottles you take or your
money will be refunded. Trial
Size only $1.26, Large Family or
Hospital Bize, $3.50. '

CLARKE COUNTY WOMEN VOTERS HEAR
INTERESTING LECTURE ABOUT KOREA
By RANDALL COUCH
Revealing' much of the first
hand knowledge he attained while
serving with the Army of Occupa
tion in Korea, Harold D. Loden,
associate professor of Agronomy
at. the University of Georgia, ap
peared before Clarke County Wo
men Voters Tuesday at one o’clock
in Holman Hotel.
Professor Loden’s lecture, il
lustrated with colored slides aof
various sections of Korea but con
sisting pritnarily. of ‘scenes in and
around the capital city of Seoul,
proved to be of wital interest to
everyone present, particularly so
in light of the war now raging in
the sections of that country which
were pictured.
The speaker, a member of the
Georgia faculty for the past sev
eral years, served with the Army
of Occupation for approximately a
yvear in Korea following the cessa~
tion of hostilities with Japan, Dur=
ing the greater part of that time
Prof. Loden lived alone in.one of
she thirteen agricultural “experi
ment stations whigh were set up by
the occupation -army threughout
Korea. His solitary position doubt
less contributed greatly ‘to his
abundant knowledge of Korean
customs and traditions which he
so vividly pictured in describing
the scenes depicted on the screen
for the voters group. .
“‘Koreans,” averred Professor
Loden, “have no regard for human
life and human suffering.”
To illustrate this point he cited
several incidents supporting his
statement. It was gathered by most
of those present from these ex
amples that in Korea there are
few, if any “Good Samaritahs” to
the wayside sufferer.
Agriculture
Of the 23 million people in all of
Korea, according to the speaker,
the greater part of the population
engages in agriculture for a liveli
hood. Agricultural methods are so
primitive (the Xorean farmer’s
equipment usually being limited to
an ox and crude substitutes for
plows and plowshares) that food
supplies are inyariably inadequate.
Rice, other grains and vegetables
of numerous varieties are the
primary crops. ‘There are no cat
tle,.other than oxen, in Korea be
cause of the large amount of land
required for the upkeep of cattle.
-As a result, of course, Koreans do
not drink milk. Korean farmers,
for the most part, reside on the
hillsides, their family farms, which
average two-and-a-half acres,
stretching over the valleys, Irriga
tion is largely done by hand, as-are
all agricultural operations from
planting through threshing, ete.
The national dress in Korea,
stated Mr. Loden; is white, -white
signifying mourning in that coun
try. ' This tradition (white) car
ries over, it was stated, even into
foodstuffs, pork: beirig customarily
banned as a food because of the
white meat.
“The mountains of Korea,” said
Mr. Loden, “are virtually de
nuded, centuries of stripping the
hills of timber to be used as fuel
for winter heating having left the
mountains bare and eroded.”
Despite the picture thus painted,
Korea, it was revealed by some of
the slides, has many things of
beauty, particularly the Shinto
Shrines built by the Japanese dur
ing their years of occupation, and
the often-centuries-old Buddhist
temples and the royal palaces
which remain from the days of the
one-time ruling dynasty in that
country. Several of the public
buildings, notably the now-dé
stroyed (in recent bombings) rail
road station in Seoul and the capi
tal building in. that- city, which
was constructed by the Japanese
following their annexation of Ko
rea in 1911, are also architectural
ly and artistically eye-appealing.
Primitive Methods
In pointing out the amazingly
primitive mode of life of the Ko
reans, Mr. Loden referred to the
prevalence of open sewers in Ko
rean cities. From these sewers, he
stated, comes the larger part of
the country’s water supply. Ko
reafl women do their laundry in
the sewers and spread it on the
outlying ground to dry. There
seems to be no limit to the uses to
which the sewers are put.
Seven percent of the Korean
population, stated the speak
er, is supposedly Christian. The
remaining populance is Budd
hist. This, according to Mr, Lo
den, is important for a numbeéy of
reasons, primary of which is prob
ably the carryover of the religion
into various agricultural pursuits,
such carryover- accounting for
much of the time loss involved in
planting, tilling and harvesting of
crops. The gathering together to
make loud noises at harvest time,
thus driving away evil spirits and
assuring a good harvest, was given
as an example of religious carry
over.
Following Professor Loden’s lec
ture several questions regarding
types of crops grown .in . Kaorea,
city food marts, occupations other
than agriculture and educational
facilities arose. On the latter
point, Professor Loden replied that
the greatest educational advances
are to a large extent the result of
the work of Christian missionary
effort.
Mrs. Annie E. Griffeth, presi
dent of the Voters group, presided,
and Mrs. H. W. Birdsong delivered
the invocation.

Federal Housing
Law Provides
Vet Preference
Any person now serving in the
armed forces of the United States,
or who has served on or after
September 16, 1940, and who has
been discarged other than dis
honorably, is assured for himself,
or family, first chance in the pur
chase or rental of new housing ac
commodations, it was announced
here today by Harold J. Robert
son, Area Rent Director.
He referred to what is known
as the veterans preference pro
vision of the Housing and Rent
Act of 1950, which federal law
continues effective through June
30, 1950. The Athens Area rent of
fice, he said, has detailed informa
tion about the preference require
ments for interested veterans or
builders.
“The veterans preference applies
tc housing which has been com
pleted since June 30, 1947, said
Mr. Robertson. -
'y New Construction
“In the ease of new construction,
or conversion of -’ existing dwell
ings, offered for rent, or sale, the
accommodation must be publicly
offered exclusively to veterans, or.
presént servicemen and their fam
ilies, during the period of con
struction or conversion and for a
period of 30 days after comple
tion, and for a period of seven
days prior to a subsequent sale or
renting of offering to non-vete
rans.”
He said owners of such property
for rent or sale are required to
make known such offerings by ad
vertising and posting of placards
on the premises. :
Mr. Robertson added that the
preference applies anywhere in
thé country, not just-in areas hav
ing rent control. He emphasized it
is increasingly important to home
seeking veterans and servicemen
because of the restrictions on resi
dential construction recently an
mnounced by the President in the
Korean erisis.
