Macon. —A violent wind storm, ac companied by heavy rain, has caused considerable damage to telegraph and telephone wires. In southern Geor gia.

With the great amount of moisture in the earth and the lack of cold weather following the rains, all vegetation is bursting into bloom almost like magic and fruit trees and flowers have blossomed out.

Atlanta. —Governor Dorsey has re turned from the conference of gover nors held in Washington for the pur [ pose of discussing the problems of re construction. He expressed the opin ion that many good results will be ac complished through the general un derstandings reached at the confer ence, and through the co-ordination of effort in the various states. The first and foremost need of the country, said Governor Dorsey, is for the widest possible employment to be given to labor. While the conference developed unanimity of opinion on very few general subjects, there was no differ ence of opinion as to this question. It was the unanimous sense of the con ference, the governor stated, that the federal government, the state govern ments and the municipal governments should at once go forward with all possible public work, but that this buffer employment will not be suffi cient to meet the needs of the situa tion. Business men generally, Gov ernor Dorsey declared, ought to pro ceed at once with all kinds of activity so as to furnish employment. The general opinion of the conference was that no reduction of the cost of labor can reasonably be expected in the near future, nor any substantial re duction in the cost of living. The thing to do, in his opinion, and in the opin ion of the conference, is for every business man to give employment to as many people as he possibly can HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY, McDONOUGH GEORGIA Us To It!” ) / returning boys in blue and khaki make for the nearest fount or refreshment stand to quench a long-standing thirst with Daylight Saving Remains In Force Washington.—Failure of congress before final adjournment to take any action on pending bills providing for repeal of the daylight saving act made certain that the nation’s clocks again would be advanced an hour during the ueriod between the last Sunday in March and the last Sunday in Octo ber.
