" Enforced” Rail Mergers Will

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

ful operation oi their purposes, great
railroad development has taken place.
1 do not mean to say that many
consolidations are not advisable.
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

PRISON REFORM Iffl
Report of Mrs. Griffith Submit

Reviews Accomplishments
SANDERS’’ILLE, Oct. 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.
