Roadway and Bridges
From Brunswick to
" St. Simons Island
Atlanta. Ga. Oct. 27 The an
nouncement of state highway en
gineers here today that city and
connty comissioners of Glynn coun
ty have taken favorable action on
their report on building a road
way and bridges from Brunswick
to St. Simons Island has been re
ceived here with unusual interest,
and according to leading business
men, if a bond issue for the de
velopment is passed, it will mean
much to Georgia and the South.
Connecting St. Simons with
Brunswick means, it is further
stated, the restoration and expan
sion of that city as a seaport, the
establishment of new industries
and enterprises in that city and
on the island and the addition of
thousands of new citizens in search
of a balmy climate. It will open
up what is considered one of the
best summer resorts in the South
ern states to the people of the
South and at the same time bring
a heavy winter tourist travel.
Capotalist in the east, it is stated
here, have under consideration
the erection of costly hotels on the
island in the event the big de
velopment is made.
Sixty days ago the Glynn county
commissioners asked that federal
and state engineers make study
of available routes and submit es
timates as to the cost construction.
Two complete surveys were
made, one known an the McCor
mick site, a fraction over eight
miles from the center of Bruns
wick and the other the Cypress
mill route, something over three
miles from the center of the city.
The cost is approximately S3OO,
000.
The county will call its bond
election, it is stated, in sixty days,
but the city cannot do so until
authorized by the legislature en
actment. However, it will be ar
ranged at the county election, dis
patches state, to give the people
of Brunswick an opportunity to
express themselves on the subject,
so that in the event the issue car
ries, which seems assured, the
actual construction work can pro
ceed.
Building contractors here say
the building of the roadway and
bridges at St. Simons Island will
be one of the most important con
structions ever undertaken in the
South.

Leading Southern Cities
Show Gratfying Results
Atlanta,Ga. Oct. 27 —Numbersof
leading Southern cities, including
Atlanta and other cities in Georgia,
are checking up on their hew resi
dences and are making very grati
fying discoveries, according to
building contractors and real es
tate men here today. The out
standing characteristic of this as a
construction year has been the
building of homes.
Data from various cities and
towns showing the extent of resi
dential construction has been re
ceived by the Adair and Realty and
Trust Company of Atlanta, and
according to Forroct A/tsii.
president of the company, illumi
nating information is furnished.
The figures make a fine showing
for the Georgia cities, as well as
other southern cities, in which the
Adair company handles chain leas
es.
The South —the entire country
in fact —according to Mr. Adair
has been short on homes. A year
ago the housing situation in many
communities was really distress
ing. This situation, according to
reports, is being releived to some
extent, although, building men
here say it will be vear before the
supply of houses catches up with
the demand. The population of
the South increases each year, and
as pointed out, there must be a
substantial increase in the number
of homes annually in order to take
care of the requirments of the
situation.
“The construction of homes
must not be considered in the light
of the units, many of them modest,
some almost humble, but in the
light of the aggrigate of all this
connstruction —the total amount
paid out in wages, and the total
disbursements for house furniture
furnishing, hardware and home
refinements, thus substantially
benefitting many classes of mer
chants” declared the head of one
of the largest building concerns
here today.
