PAGE FOUR " Enforced” Rail Mergers Will Retard South's Development By S. DAVIES WARFIELD . Prctidt.nJ, Seaboard Air Lint Railway The proposed "enforced" coilro'.i dation of all the railroads oi t!.r country into v ; a tew treat <>• Sjjy Hardir.g and in :s|h,which President South. The S. Daritt Warfield South lias more to lose under the adoption of any such program, with its deadening effect on initiative and incentive and its "rigorous government super- than any other section of the country. Transportation is the king-bolt in the machinery of commercial, in dustrial, and agricultural activity. The success of every city, every community, rests on the adequacy of its transportation facilities, both by rail and by water, if it has seaport advantages. The South in the last few years lias made considerable strides in the strengthening and enlargement of transportation. Our factories, mer cantile houses, banking institutions, great as they are. cannot hope to successfully build further unless our transportation facilities, both rail and water, be jealously guarded. Measures must be taken to pre vent the advantages of our geo graphical position being taken from us, which would sidetrack the natural flow of traffic by gateways through which the South is entitled to have her position recognized. The South must prevent any plan for the enforced consolidation with the consequent contraction of facilities rr.ther than their extension—of all the railroads. You cannot treat lightly a change in the natural avenues and gateways of traffic. Upon their careful build ing tlirough years, upon the success- MRS. B. E. THRASHER HOSIiSUT PIT!

Many are highly desirable, but they should be brought about through methods that permit railroad officials —their operators, their traffic men— as well as those who represent great ’ ownership in their securities, to have primarily a say in what they con sider measures of operating and traffic necessity and financial and economic necessity before the Gov ernment shall undertake to enforcs consolidations through a Govern ment body. Already Western cities, alive to the threat to their commercial future 1 contained in the consolidation pro gram, are voicing their protests. ' These cities will not willingly sur render their present positions as railway centers to become virtual way stations, as they would when 1 located on vast transcontinental sy*-i terns. i Southern cities like Atlanta's' Richmond, Birmingham snd Wil-; mington, have even more at stake because the South has not yet reached the degree of transportation development of the Middle West It must suffer no cheeks to the* momentum of growth attained in , the last ten years, in which th* initiative of Southern railroads has played a vital part _» _i 'wood spent Sunday the guest of Mrs. Will Wise at her home here, i Mrs. S.

Jl.—The' dep.htment of prison reform of the Woman’s Christian Temperance . Union in Georgia ia doing excellent ! wrrk in this state, accruing to th'- i report of Mrs. E. B. Griffith, Eat- 1 onton, chairman, prepared for de livery at the annual meeting of ’ the organization here today. "Wo seek to improve, through! suggestions to officials, housing conditions of prisons and camps,” i said Mrs. Griffith. "We arc 1 interested in the paroled and dis- j charged prisoners, assisting then ; to get work and to provide for ’ j their families. We often assist the j j families of prisoners by placing the ; ichiloren in schoois and hospitals! land providing clothing and house i ! r»nt. We stand for the honor system, j the wage system, industrial train, j j ing, farm colonies and the parol'- 1 system. Wo ,:rge women guards and physiciais for women prison ; ers and police matrons at city lock ups and stockades. We also are j interested in improving play j grounds, libraries and otht’ com munity diversions that make for the safekeeping of our young people. “Many of our workers and local :V :prrirter.dents have cooperated with the state bureau of public wel fare in visiting jails, making sug gestions and offering recommenda tions as to screening and other sanitary measures so necessory to healthful living. “A very definite activity of thi i department for the past three years has been interest in the boys of the Georgia Traitring School for Boys at Milledgeville. We have ‘mothered’ them with letters from mothers’ hearts; we have sent them good literature and other gifts at times.” Mrs. Griffith urged greater interest in the work of the do partment of its activities. JACKIE COOGAN REVEALS GREAT GENIUS IN “DADDY” With his appearance in ‘Daddy’ at the Rylander Theatre today and Friday, little Jackie Coogan about completes the cycle of human emo tions, for in this newest picture play the youthful genius is called upon in one scene to sound the lepest of tragic notes. It was the ic-rformancc of this role and scene that evoked from Will K. Hays his tribute of tears and the remarks hat “the world needs more pic tures like this.” While "Daddy” sounds depth of tragedy und pathos it is mainly devoted to the surface of smiles and laughter. Jackie, after every discouragement, plods on, and af ter every misfortune finds comfort in the end he achieves complete happiness—-if complete happiness is ever found! There are many laughable mo ments in "Daddy” among them, be ing “Mildred,” Jackie’s bottle-fed pig who grows to womanhood; the dish of spaghetti (bigger than him self) that he tries to eat; his “Daddy’s” pants that won’t quite fit; the cow he tries to milk—the shower bath; and a hundfred other things.
