CHAIRMAN OF WAR BOARD CITES NEED FOR SCRAP METAL All alortjf the Georgia farm front, the new battle cry of “Scrap to Slap the Jap” went up this week as farm ers spurred their collection of scrap iron and steel to feed America’s war! machine. “We’ve got to slap hard and step quickly,” H. G. Woods chairman of the Seminole County USDA War Board, said in discussing the pressing need for scrap metals. “Many of our steel mills already have shut down, and other* face the same prospect un less they can get adequate supplies of scrap iron and steel to use in charg ing the furnaces. It may seem far fetched to say that our folks down on the farm can keep those steel mills open, but it’« cold, hard fact. It’s up to us to gather up every bit of scrap me tal we can lay our hands on, and move it into industrial channels swiftly.” Last week, in calling for itu, co operation of organized groups in push ing the scrap collection drive, Mr. Woods cited the fact that millions of tons of American scrap metal, sold to AT THE TOP OF THE LIST , PsBEEMfe ,A fl £ 1 4>.

This newspaper assumes no responsibility for proof of any statements contained therein and, beyond giving Mr. Cummings an opportunity to reply through these columns within the next t w ° weeks, j will not in the future carry any fur- Iter articles, regardless of payment : or non-payment, which we do not con • sider to be to the best interest of the people of the county.) Donalsonville, Ga. March, 1942. During the month of February this year through the columns of the Don alsonville News I charged the Tal- ■ inadge Administration and its cohorts > with acts unpatriotic, unfair and de grading. Among these charges I ; charged one of the members of the j board of regents with dining negroes, in his dining room for business rea sons. I mentioned no mans name but (asked the Governor to drag him out and discharge him. Mr. John Cum mings tikes this charge upon himself. The only rooms i:? connection with Mr. Cummings dining room are the. Sun Parlor, Breakfast Room and the kit chen, ( with all due respect for the ne groes in their places we people of the deep south sprye them jn the kitchen) but in copuec.tio;) with in stance Mr. Cummings does pot men tion “kitchen”. The side room men tioned is undoubtly either the sun parlor or the breakfast room. When he brings these negroes so close to the dining room and don’t mention kitchen he virtually pleads guilty and too, Mr. camming?, why do you take excep tions to a statejpeni which does not mention your name. You dq not deny ! anything, you rely sojely upon the I statement f»i negroes- Mr. Cummings yvi) are slightly shrewd in away but you are yery, very dull in another. You do deny dining those negroes (President and Professor as you call them) in your din«,g room, you rely upon cramming down the tftfpats of the white people of this county fins statement of ne groes. Why don’t you up like a man and take the medicine jf are guilty. Governor Talgmdge has culled and reculled his board Twente until they wait like young birds u« ti»e pest with their mouths wide open ready to spy “me too.” The negroes were fought iP a finish in Athens for po litical reasons some are dined in ■ a private home in Hrmjpole County > for business reasons but ht»l ?n the kitchen. Few people of Seminole County know that Talmadge and his board of regents in distroying the school system of Georgia and attacking the DONALSONVILLE NEWS FRIDAY, MARCH 6TH, 1942. negro have caused a civil suit to be brought in the United States District Court of Atlanta to recover the dif ference in salaries paid white and ne gro teachers. The State School De partment has just issued a statement that for one year alone the negroes of the state will recover from the state and counties ONE MILLION DOL LARS. Under the law they can (and they will) go back and recover for seven years which will aggregate Sev en Millions of Dollars, see the At lanta Journal of last week and you will see an account of this in the STATESMAN a news paper issued and sent out by Governor Talmadge. This same board of regents of which John J. Cummings is a member caus ed this. What will happen ? There will be an enormous bond issue both of the state and counties (and the school Bus system will not be forgotton) to pay back salaries to teachers. Take credit for thjs Mr. Board Os Regents. When the next primary is over (if Tul madge runs) he will remind us of an old battle scarred tom eat watching at an abandoned rat holo, I am in sympathy with you Mr. Cummings I feel that, you have been imposed upon and that your signature to your article was just a mere “sign here on the dotted line Johnie”. Mr. Cummings why did you call on whis pering, cotton mouthed sweet rumped Eddie, the weird, mysterious (Senori ta) sleeper, the strange man, the strangeness of whjch Medical science has pevpr yet understood tq write your article or a portion of it, the man who your people let go because they could not trust him. Why did you trust him to hand you with his long, harry talon like fingers a pen wheih you grabbed with the same eagerness, and sim plicity as that of a hungry child reaching out for a bottle of milk, to sign a statement containing false hoods. By the instructions of “old Gene” the lamb of the farm ease? up under cover of darkness to Donalsonville, epepps cautiously into the lair of a did lipn, he moves as though eminent danger lurks about him, a fraid to speek, but when Leo Licks his hand and his over grown cub plays around his feet the powwow starts. Lamb to Leo: “Gene sent me hither”. We are demanded else we die political ly to select and send to the next legi slature a man who Talmadge can ab solutely control”. Lawlassness run ning jampapt oyer the state, winked at by seventy five percent of the Tal madge appointees together with the Gqvernor’s disregard for the welfare iwpjejy and the approach of thp loss of seven million dollars has put a crimp in his tail call off your dogs Mr. Cummings.
