In Production
production of lilly bulbs in
ceorpgia during the past two years
ereaced more than 800 percent
sccording to Roy A. Bowden, pro
tessor of floriculture and orna
mental horticulture at the Univer
citv of Georgia,
" powden said today that a survey
report made at an annual bulb
gowers conference in Macon
proucht to light this tremendous
increase in production. More than
100 Georgia bulb growers attend
ed the two meeting here which
toatured an address by Joseph
Montelaro, associate Extension
horticulturist, Louisiana State Uni
versitv. Dr. Montelaro is the au
thor of a bulletin on “Growing Lily
Bulbs in Louisiana.”
In <peaking to the bulb growers,
Montelaro pointed out that the
quality of bulbs grown in Geor
gia is higher than in Louisiana,
production rates are higher and
rices received by growers are
higher. He explained that the de
mands for Georgia-grow? bulbs
are heavy partly due to the fact
that bulb yields in Florida and
Louisiana have been cut severely
by dicease attacks recently.
nowden points out that “Geor
giv's bulb growing industry is
ceqttered from the mountain area
¢ Ihe state to the coast, and is
wot coneentrated in any one small
Al For this reasen bulb diseases
Jo ot spread rapidly.”
Alco, according to Bowden,
of Ceorgia’s bulb crop is grown
in small ¢racts whereas the bulb
srowing industry in some of the
maior producing localities is con
cenirated in small areas and in the
ha of large growers.
pulh growers in this state have
ad 1 a nrogram of certification
o Fulbs to be condueted under
ihe inspection laws of the State
nenariment of Entomology. The
T m is to be a voluntarv one,
bu as ndonted unanimously.
Cood Prospects
Tre bulb growers report that
yroenects for this year’s crop are
onucually good. Last year’s pro
dustion inf the state'was cut by un
favorable weather.
Another development brought
out is the fact that approvimate
lv 65 percent of Georgia’s bulb
stocks this year are being used for
pronagation purpoes. This is help
ins to make the heavy increase in
acreage possible.
A resolution was passed by the
orowers asking for a full-time Ex
tension Service employee to assist
growers in this state.

Capes, who passed away one year

CUPID SHRINE THRIVING
TOKYO — (AP) — Most of the
Shinto shrines in Japan are in
poor shape financially, but not
the shrine of Izumo, the Japanese
counterpart of Cupid. It’s thriving.
Some Japanese believe all mar
riages are arranged by the god
Izumo. The newspaper, Asahi, re
ported from Matsue, Western Hon
shu island, that the shrine sold
four million charms last year, net
ting $220,000.
In addition those grateful for
good wives or husbands, or those
wishing good marriages, made
donations. About 240 eouples,
including some American goldiers
married to Japanese girls, chose
the shrine hall for their nuptials.
The enterprising management of
the shrine recently created a board
of five “sob sisters” to answer
mail from dissatisfied husbands or
wives, and others seeking good
matches, asahi said. 2

Out of 35,000 lives lost in traffic accidents in 1950, 26,700 were sacrificed on the
altar of carelessness. Speed—excessive, killing speed—accounted for nearly half thac
number. Speed, claiming 13,300 dead and 475,000 injured victims in a single year,
is the nation’s Killer No. 1.
While all traffic deaths declined from 1946 through 1949, even then fatalities
on the open road kept creeping up. In 1950 a deadly spurt of speed accidents
claimed 3,200 more victims in rural areas than it had the year before. Last year
speed deaths again mounted.
Why do drivers race so heedlessly to destruction on the highway? Flardly to
save time. Scorching at 70 is an invitation to disaster. Over any distance, 50 m.p.h.
takes only a few minutes longer and offers a better chance of a safe arrival.
When you start out with your family or friends, discount speed before you
take off. Give yourself and others in your car an extra margin of safety by leaving
‘earlier and holding your speed within bounds. It’s your responsibility to them and :
to others on the road.
» Remember—more than one out of every three fatal accicents is due to speed

CONGRESSMEN ASK LOBBY
GROUP STAY ORGANIZED
By STERLING F. GREEN
(For James Marlow)
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21 — (AP)
— Some members of Congress did
an unusual thing this week. They
urged a disbanding lobby, an ad
mitted pressure group, to stay In
business,
The lobby is the citizens’ com
mittee for the Hoover report. Its
goal is better and cheaper govern
ment.
The eommittee plans to break
up on May 81. A nonypartisan
bod{, it feels it can not survive the
election campagin without getting
involved in the political crossfire.
The committee was organized in
1949 to lobby for the approval of
the government-reform proposals
of the 12-member, bi-partisan
Commission on Organization on
Executive Branch.
That commission quickly be
came known as the Hoover com
mission. Its chairman, former
President Herbert Hoover, said
that in taking leadership he was
performing his “last public ser
ice.”
Sent to congress in bulky in
stallments three years ago, the
Hoover report was an attic-to
basement survey of the ramshackle
federal structure, and an item-by
item blueprint for modernizing it.
The citizens’ committee, volun
tary and privately supported,.came
into being when the Hoover com
mission- ‘completed ivs work and
closed up shop.
Committee’s Aim ’
The committee’s sole aim was to
see that the Hoover report did not
suffer the fate of earlier re
form efforts — which still are
gathering dust in congressional
pigeon holes.
Numerically, the committee has
won adoption of 55 per cent of
the Individual Hoover recom
mendations.
In terms of dollars saved, it
claims about two billioss annually,
against a potential saVing of 5%
billions a year if all the propos
als became law.
Actually, the easier parts of the
program have been accomplished.
The hard ones, bitterly contested
by other presure groups and side
tracked by the more compelling
considerations of defense, seem to
have hit a road block.
The committee last weekend de
cided to make a final big push for
at least six more major reorgan
ization measures and then disband
at the end of May.
Senator Paul Douglas (D-I11)
appealed to the meeting for crea
tion of “a taxpayers’ body to take
its place.”
In his final words to the ori
anization, chairman Robert L
Johnson of Philadelphia told the

' TEL AVIV —(AP)—*“Cone With

In one of the biggest Tel Aviw
theaters, the good old Clarke Ga=

drawing record crowds since it
began its second run two months
ago.
Another Jerusalém hit is Cecil
de Mille’s “Samson and Delilah”™,
But when the Jewish youngsters
there spotted several deviations
from the Bible tale, they critically
shouted, “That aint so.”
