There Must Be A Change
A great movement is under way to industrialize
Georgia. To bring factories and industries with their
men and pay rolls to nourish the state. This is a tine
movement. Every Georgian should be interested in
it. Every farmer should support the movement whole
heartedly. It means larger markets for his produce,
larger opportunities of employment to all our people
and greater prosperity along all lines of business ac-
Hvities. Tire cotton mills of New England are com
ing south. The textile industries of that section are
joining down here and planting themselves by the side
of She growing cotton plant.
Georgia should put forth great efforts to secure her
full share of these industries. It will lie extremely
difficult lo do so under present conditions. '1 he im
pression is abroad among these eastern states that
Georgia does not regard capital Invested here ns sa
cred as it ought to l*e held. That impression must
be changed. Corporations and capital must cease to
be regarded as the targets for denunciation. The
people of this state must realize that Georgia lias got
<o to go the money markets and bid against other
states for capital, and their bids must be more at
tractive than those of otUer Jjtates in order to gel it.
The truth of tin* situation is that investors and
bankers are disinclined to invest their money in Geor
gia now because of its supposed attitude toward the
money already placed here. That theorizing, visionary
element in the state ttiat is clamoring for public own
ership of public utilities are blocking the industrial ex
pension erf Georgia.
Public ownership means bonded Indebtedness, high
er taxes, political inefficiency, the first Step towards
socialism. Georgia do<* not want this.
VYe can get our share of these industries that are
looking southward if we will but stand up square
and fair and realize that money has rights as well
as individuals, and publish to the world that every
dollar invested in the state shall be held as sacred as
they are held by any government on the earth.

Your Father.
He may wear last year's straw hat, his fingernails
may need manicuring, his vest may hang a little
loose and his punts may bag at the knees; his face
may show signs of second day's growth, and the tin
dinner bucket lie carries may lie full of dents and
doughnuts; but don’t you call him the old man—he s
your father.
For years and years he lias been rustling around to
get tilings together. Never once has he failed to do
the right tiling Uy you. He thinks you are the great
est boy on earth, bar none, even though you plaster
your hair back, wear smart clothes, smoke cigarettes
and fail to bring home a cent. He is a man who won
the love and life partnership of the greatest woman
on earth —your mother.
He is “some man" and not the ‘old man.” If you
win as good a wife as he did, you will have to go
some, boy.—The Silent Partner.

The Highway Department
Says The Moultrie Observer: “There is doubtless
a lot of petty politics in the complaints and criticisms
heard. We again suggest that the State Highway
Department needs to add one more expense. It needs
a press agent that can ascertain facts and present to
the public in an understandable way. If Georgia is
not soon educated and enlightened on the matter of
what the State Highway Department Ls doing, tlie
law will be repealed and road construction will be
approached in a different way. It is all right for the
enemies of tin* Highway Department to be in the
dark, lpt it will not do for the friends of the depart
ment to be in the dark and in doubt.”
The Commerce News in discussing the above sug
gestion. says: “That is n good suggestion. The peo
ple should be given the facts in detail. Once in pos
session of the facts they can be trusted. The facts
will all come out sooner or later. Until they are
given we can afford to wait patiently."
Does the Moultrie Observer mean that the highway
department should hire a publicity agent to defend
its acts and doings before the people of Georgia?
Are the acts of this department so oHscured and so
hard to comprehend that it needs to hire a publicity
agent, paid out of the funds of the department, to ex
plain these acts to the people? In other words, the
Moultrie Observer would hire a man at a large sal
ary, for such men usually demand a large salary, in
order to educate the people up to the point of blindly
swallowing everything the highway department does.
We disagree with our neighbor, the Moultrie Ob
server. No department in the government of this
state needs a publicity agent to keep the public from
criticising them. Just keep the people informed. Pub
lish statements in such terms that the common peo
ple can undmslaml.
As the Commerce News says, the facts will all fi
nally come out. Rut why wait patiently? The peo
ple's motiey is being spent every day. Why not give
the facts now? Why should the public be called on
to wait patiently. It’s their business and their mon
ey. They are entitled to know everything that is
done as soon as it ls done, and the cost of same.
The state highway department has no enemies. The
public ls just calling upon it to function economically
and keep the people posted.
O-
We endorse the statement of The Walton Tribune
when it states that it doesn’t favor abolishing the
State Highway commission but would like to see the
politics in tlie commission abolished.

The Commerce News says that the girl who danced
