ATTORNEY GENERAL MAKES
TALK AT BAPTIST CHURCH
Hon. Manning J. Yeomans, attor
ney-general of Georgia, who was the
guest Sunday of Mr. and Mrs. T. H.
Buttrill, made an interesting, though
impromptu, talk at the Baptist
church at the Sunday morning ser
vice.
His talk was along the line of
“Father’s Day” which was observed
in all the churches Sunday. He paid
high tribute to all mothers and said
they'weie in reality the ones who
shaped the destinies of the children
of a family. Fathers, he said, were
the builders and providers and should
be examples of highest moral and
Christian character to their children.
He quoted a piece of verse entitled
“Builders” penned by his daughter
and dedicated to him.
t Before entering public life Mr.
Yeomans was a citizen of Bulloch
county, his family and Mrs. But
trill’s family—the Durdens, of Eman
uel county—being friends of long
Standing.
Mr. Yeomans met a number of
Jackson people and was delightfully
entertained.

FORD AGAINST THE
R. F. C. AND DOLE
HONEST WORK AT FAIR WAGES
WILL BRING BACK PROSPERI
TY, MOTOR MAGNATE SAYS
IN INTERVIEW
Detroit, Mich.—The shortest cut
to the restoration of economic bal
ance, Henry Ford said in an inter
view today, is the elimination of the
“dole system,” and one of the quick
est ways to eliminate the dole, ho
added, is to “get rid of the Recon
struction Finance corporation.”
“Recovery,” Mr. Ford said, “can
come only up through the people, not
down through financial or political
schemes. We must put work every
where —not the kind of work that
pays a dole, but a wage with a mar
gin.”
“The R. F. C.,” he said, “is noth
ing more than a systemized dole. It
doesn’t relieve anybody and as long
as it continues to function as the
distributor of the dole, we cannot
look to it for lasting inprovement
in. economic conditions.
“All I am saying is that the sys
tem of making money out of money,
and not being able to do anything
without money, is a wrong system,
arid is in process of disappearing
right now. There are a few more
schemes we must try before we shall
be fully disillusioned and ready to
start right, and when we are all
through, the country will find itself
in its right senses again.”
“My opposition to the dole,” t Mr.
Ford went on, “is not the money it
costs —that is a minor matter. It is
the insult which the most efficient
country in the world hands to men
who want to work.
Mr. Ford said he was working on
a plan that in effect would mean
“rending work and wages direct to
the people.”
“I am working out a plan,” he
said, “whereby every Ford dealer
will have a part in Ford manufac
ture. There is no reason why every
one of our 9,000 dealerships should
only sell and service cars. We could
make it possible for them to hire
men to work on small parts. This
would be sending work and wages
direct to the people of every com
munity.”
Regarding the payment of war
debts, Mr. Ford said neither collec
tion nor cancellation was of any con
sequence, “so far as the plain peo
ple of the nations are concerned.”
“The people of neither the creditor
nor debtor nations will get any real
benefit either way,” he said. “The
World War was paid for, dearly paid
for, in cash and in every other way,
long ago. Every shot fired in the
war was paid for. The debts are ‘vel
vet’; they are the last rake-off. If
we don’t forget them, our children
will.”
Mr. Ford reiterated his belief that
“nobody ever got anything for noth
ing.” This, he said, included those
who speculated in the stock market.
“Those who speculated in the mar
ket,” he said, “worked harder than
anybody else—and got nothing for
it.”
