Summoning the aid of nearby farm¬ ers it was was found there were two bodies. 'They were grown negroes, ap¬ parently 25 years of age, chained to¬ gether, with trace chains, around tht neck, back to back, and Weighted with a 150 pound stone. They were clean shaven an ddressed in overalls. The coroner’s jury held that the tie groes were bound while alive and thrown from the bridge. The double drow ning, a double murder. Physi¬ cians were 6f the opinion the bodies had been in the water ten days. Hundreds of people viewed the corp¬ ses, but were unable to identify thc negroes. Sheriff B. L. Johnson of this county reports no missing negroes, and no race trouble in Newton, There hat been some recent trouble in Jaspei over peonage. .Tuesday a petition was -circulated around the streets of Covington for Gov. Dorsey to offer a reward. This was i signed by many of the leading citizens of town and county. Another Negro Found. On Wednesday, Mch. itith, another negro was found in South river, one mile west of the spot where those of Sunday were discovered, and later bur¬ led. This third negro was similarly treated, chain and sack of, rocks about Iiis neck. He was about 2N .years of age. His shoes patched with automo bile tire rubber. An inquest was held Thursday. Ev¬ idently he had been in water about two weeks and came to his death in the mysterious manor of the others. Such finds are unspeakably grues ome, 'and these atrocities a reproach upon the county. The Newton countv authorities are putting forth every ef¬ fort to apprehend the guilty parties. Governor Dorsey Wednesday offered rewards totaling $1750 for the arrest of unidentified men who threw two neg¬ roes into the Yellow River in this coun¬ ty. Reward of $500 each are offered for the first two and $250 each for the next throe caught. Gii DKG IA TECH CAMPAIGN UNDER HHAI>\VA\ Dr. W. D. Travis a prominent phy¬ sician of this city, lias been offered, and has accepted, the chairmanship of the Greater Georgia Tech committee for Newton County, and will have charge of this importantv,branch of the campaign designed to_raise $1,000,000 a year for five years for the Georgia School of Technology. The Greater Georgia Tech campaign will begin April 20, under peculiarly favorable conditions. Its objective, is $5,000,000, to expand the technical Georgia School of Technology into a training institution capable of an en¬ rollment of at least 5,000 students, and of training them as well as any school in the world into producers; men who will develop the enormous natural res¬ ources of the state, now for the most part either untouched or sent outjn crude form to be made'into valuable commercial products in other states, which thus reap practically all the ben¬ efit and profit. Georgia begins work on this fund with a challenge from Georgians in New York City, headed by Ivy L. Lee that they wil raise, in New York and the East $1,000,000, if Georgia will raise the remainder. On top of this comes the approval of the Georgia Cotton Manufacturers’ association of a resolution that its members shall con¬ tribute $500,000 to the fund. The appointment of a chairman in this county is a step in a great gener¬ al organization, beginning with the ac¬ ceptance of Victor Allen of Buford as chairman of the state executive com¬ mittee. The^state is divided into five regions, with a chairman for each, hav¬ ing aproximately thirty counties under his general supervision. The county unit organization, however, is proba¬ bly the most important factor of the I entire plan, and the general committee j ing is exercising thc whom greatest the care appointments in choos¬ men to will he offered. The Greater Georgia Tech- made pos¬ sible by the fund will include in its scope a research laboratory—the only one south of the Mahon and Dixon line; of vast importance to all the state's i industries; an extension service, by I which Georgia industries will be sup I plied with experts at any time, to go to their plants and assist in working out their problems; an industrial de j ' together velopment of department, capital—from for outside the bringing states as well as in Georgia—and Georgia op portunities; and the technical training oi' Georgia’s greatest asset, her young men. to take charge of her industrial affairs and send her to the front rank of the industrial states of the Union.

For Newton County and Her People. COVINGTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, MARCH 17, 1921 WHY NOT RENT REDUCTION ' 0THERJ1INGS GOING DOWN Vita! Question Which Should Huve Immediate Attention of Land¬ lords. High Prices Uakf 1 Vacant Houses. Everybody knows that price n&uriity Aav^tumbled. The general bus¬ iness of the country and this co is not what it was. Manufacturers are coming c own as fast as possible, food stuff decreased and the whole trend ; ifc Reduce, Reduce ! ! But not so with rent, Lam iofds hold to the original charges of prosperous times, still elingin . to the desire for enormous prof¬ its. This is not right, neither i; it safe. - . The Milledgeville Recorder presents the situation in a light that will show the wisdom of T duction. Better a tenant at low prices, than nq tenant at all. Ve quote the following from the Recorder. With the rapid changes in values <f hpmes “before the war” the rent sit¬ uation is beginning to get attention. Here and there houses are “For i -tit” and many families are going back to the country and some doubling uiv* more in a house” is making vacancies here and there. • t In many places there art- changes in ci.nunercial houses too, many merchants are going out of business, some are forced to liquidate and therefore stores are vacant in many towns now that a few month* ago boasted that there was not a store building for rent. Many business firms find that tht great drop in the price of merchandise have left them with large stocks -on 1. no, and not willing to take the fearful loss entalk'd in meeting the drastic de< lip- have fought the fight the best they could, not being able to collect, sales ailing off.. prices declining, there can lie only one answer, cease to do business. I . The very high rents that landlords put on homes and stores cannot be paid by people now who are out of work and by business men who find that their trade is nothing like what a fall business should be, hence the inevitable. Land¬ lords with vacant property yielding them nothing. It would be far better for propel ty owners who wish to keep their property occupied to go into such matters with their tenants and where the rental basis is on the high price of recent boom times to,adjust at once to a fair and equita¬ ble basis, and keep it occupied rather t ban have a good tenant seeking a cheap¬ er house. While the “vacancy” proposition has not shown up yet to a great extent it is right here at hand. Just a matter of :< few weeks now and many changes will he noted. High rental cannot he paid by anybody in business now, nor by salaried people for homes, for incomes have b> n cut in half and soon every one will feel it. and where a landlord is wise h will look to the future for a perma¬ nent tenant at a lower rental, is better than jnonths of idle property and no rent at all.—Milledgeville Recorder. * COVINGTON WOMAN STARTS. SOMETHING VOTING TO SELECT A NA¬ TIONAL TREE —CHIL¬ DREN AND ALL ARE ELIGIBLE TO VOTE __ Plea for the uit> „ Uecently, in a , Beautifull”. Mrs. C. Clarke paid tribute to trees, that at once attracted the attention of the^ American h or estry Association in Washington, y- F,' Mrs. OWrke was warmly congx:’--.mated upon her activities along this line, and urged to interest the club and com liiunity at large in a Tree-Voting plan. This plan has been adopted by siniu.n organizations throughout the country in co-operation with the newspapers. The American Forestry Asssociation among its varied methods of promoting interest for the preservation and en richment of the forests has Instituted a national honor roll, and keeps a rec-, : ord of memorial tree planting. “Electing a Tree,” which is in other selecting a national tree as a symbol of these U. S. has a peculiar significance. This nation, for all its greatness, progressiveness and intelli gence. has always showed a singular ’ torpor to questions of national senti ment such as this, which, in like cir currrstances, are taken quite seriously, tcl u« civ hv the British. Agitation for a national flower was hot for awhile- but we never could make a, definite selection. Neither the trite daisy nor the febrile goldenrod was a, happv candidate, though these were the leading favorites. So the choice was put off. and the question is for-, ,, ~ 0 tten today The selection of a national tree will be even more difficult. Botanists and foresters believe the maple is a proha hie winner, though the oak and the : sadlv-diminishing walnut are mefition ed as dark horses. But a country, one fourth of which is in forests, may be 1 pardoned some indecision. The hickory ; has rugged qualities that might era blematize America aptly; the fruit trees will be popular with manv voters—-es peccially school boys. j If a test of strict praoticallity were applied to the “election”, no such dec ofativo trees would win. Instead, we might get the useful and wealth-pro- ; during yellow pine, which in recent years has been the leader in lumber production, or the almost equally pro ductivo' Douglas fir of the Northwest, But these trees like the rest, sent only sections of the country. What is wanted is a concrete type of Ameri- TREE The American Forestry Association of Washington, D. C„ is taking a nation wide vote to determine what shall be America's national tree.

This vote is not to be confined to adults, nor is it to be lim t 0 school children, hut all are asked to take part in it. Just now the | );u .ti (:u i al - attention of the children is invited, for the school year is opening and this is a good thought for them tu t!l j {0 U)1 j n connection with their stud j eg , xh ,tc is real merit in this move m ,, nt f or a national tree. Even if it no more than make a large nunrber ot - Jh „i<,i e study trees, their natures and ran g.,, of growth geographically, it would be of inestimable benefit. And if, in ulition to this, they should learn that the forests of the country are in danger of rapid extinction the value of the study would be doubled. Steely of the subject will be deman¬ ded Of those who enter this voting con¬ test, for they are expected fo give reas¬ ons in writing for voting for their par tit ular trees. -Naturally the selection of a tree that will appropriately rep resent the American spirit as far far as a tree can will be no small task. In the first place, if it is to be representative,, it ought to grow in at least some por tion of all the states. In the next place it should possess some placid quality which is representative of American citizenship as a whole. With these main points in mind, reasonable study ought to bring to light a number of good reasons to hack the preference of the man, woman or child who may be writing his or her choice and an ar sument therefor. Fortunately there is not a tree that does not combine the , of beauty and utility, elements so no one need be slighted for lack of senti mental or practical reasons, When writing, use only one side of the paper, and address all votes ami the reasons therefor to the American Forestry Association, \oti.^g Depait ment. Washington. D. ( . 1 he Associ ation promises that the voting will be announced by states from time to time. R > s fo be hoped that, this appeal foi an expression ot opinion in the mattet of a national tree will meet a ready and general response. Every citizen should be interested in thc mattei and take the time to make an intelligent decision, and then express it. What tree, in your opinion, best expresses the spirit of America, and in what/man ner does it do this? Tell the American Forestry Association.
