4 Letter from Our Congressman 1 {

Capitol Hill,
Washington, D. C.,
March 30, 1940.
My dear Constituents:
The Farm Security Administra
tion has just completed a nation
kvide survey of the progress be
ing made by their borrowers, and
J felt that you might be interest
Lt in the figures for the Fourth
District of Georgia.
I am proud to note that these
farmers who have borrowed from
Farm Security Administration
unds not only have increased
[heir net worth and annual satis- in
lome. but are also making
L ; tory progress in the repayment
If their loans.
Last year there were 2,408
;andard rehabilitation bororwers
i our district. Their average net
pcome for the previous year was
p25.88. while last year, with the
tip of these loans their average
jet income increased to $272.68
kr family, an increase of 117
er cent. Moreover, these fami
ps increased their average net
forth over and above all debts—
om $321.29 before they came
ito the F. S. A. program to
131,61 at the end of the 1939 crop
tar, a gain of 29 per cent.
In other words, these families
it only have added $222,307 to
e wealth of our district, but they
ive increased their annual in
Ties by a total of $353,510. This,
panding purchasing power has
en a considerable benefit to the
srehants and other business men
the district.
The best of all is that on the
ins, totaling $1,369,743, made in !
r district, $382,101 have been!
paid; the average loan being
68.83, of which $158.68 has been
paid. Since most of this money
.loaned on a five year basis,
Eve is every reason to expect
fit the great bulk of it will -O e
paid. Our section leads t X e
kole country in its repayment I
[ord. hcularly This collection record is
significant, because
ording to the business men’s .
ndards, these borrowers would
be considered good credit j
because Rehabilitation loans

not get adequate credit any-! i

I worth before they came into the

canned
quarters of fruits and vegetables
last year, an average of 148 quarts
per family for home consumption.
They also produced 947,717 gal
lons of milk, an average of 394
gallons per family; 20,540 tons of
forage, an average of 8Vz tons
per family. This kind of diversi
fied farming has meant a higher
standard of living, a better diet
and unusually marked improve
ment in health.
This program has helped our
distirct. 1226 farm families in our
district have advanced under this
program from sharecroppers to
tenant status. There are still 1706
families in our district eligible
and in need of rehabilitation loans,
but have been unable to get them
because of limited funds.
Aside from the Rehabilitation
program, the Farm Security Ad
ministration’s most important job
is to make loans under the Bank
head-Jones Farm Act to tenants,
sharecroppers, and farm laborers
to enable them to purchase fam
ily size farms of their own. 75
of these loans have bene made in
our district, totaling $261,692. This
year we expect to have 78 Bank
head Jones loans made in our dis
trict totaling approximately
$290,000.

Dr Branham
There is a Georgian—a blond
ittle woman with happy light
eyes — whose girlhood and col
lege days were spent in the usual
way of cultured southerners.
But Sara Branham's zeal for
research soon marked her as one
who would play a .part in one of
the greatest scientific discoveries
of our time—a cure for the dread
ed and fatal spinal meningitis.
Dr. Branham, now a famous
scientist in her own right, was
in Atlanta this week, and will
introduced Mile. Eve Curie, who
lectured on her famous par
ents, Pierre and Marie Curie, the
discoverers of radium, at
Glenn Memorial Church, March
25.
Sara Branham was born in Ox
ford, Ga., a member of a family
prominently connected with old
Emory College. Her maternal un
c le, Harry Stone, was a professor
at the college for 50 years.
she went to the p a i m€r j ns ti

ADDRESS ON WAR
BY ALEXANDER CAMPBELL
Delivered at Wheeling, Va., in 1848 i I
Printed in Serial Form on Request of Subscribers
NUMBER 6. :i j
The question is not Whether,
un der the new administration of
j be universe, Christian communi
ties have a right to wage war, in
jt s common technical sense,
against other communities—as the
house of Judah against the house
0 f j sraek b oth of the same re
ligion, language and blood. This
is already, by almost universal
consent, decided in the negative,
probably only one society of pro
fessed Christians excepted. But
the question is, May a
community, or the members of it,;
irl their individual capacities, take
U P arms at all. whether aggress
ively or defensively, in any na
tional conflict? We might, as be
f° 1-e alleged, dispense with the
words “aggressive" and “delens
' ve 1-for a mere grammatical, log
leal, or legal quibble will make
any war either aggressive or de
tensive, just as the whim, caprice,
or interest of an individual pleas
on his deathbed, de
clared that he had never engaged,
duringhiswholecareer.inanag
gressive * war-that all his wars
ere defensive. Yet all
regarded him as the most
-e warior of any age.
But the great question is:
an individual, not a public func
tionary, morally do that in obed
ience to his government which he
cannot do in his won case? Sup
pose the master of an apprenticed
youth ' or the master ° f a numbei
hjred or even bond servants,
should fall out with one of his
neighbors about one of the lines
of bis plantation, because, as he
imagined, his neighbor had tres
passed upon his freehold in clear
ing or cultivating his lands.
neighbor refuses to retire within
the precincts insisted on by the
complainant; in consequence of
which the master calls together all
his servants and proceeds to av
enge himself or, as he alleges, to
defend his own property. As the
controversy waxes hot, he com
mands his servants not only to
bUr " a " d deStr ° y ^ iniprove *
ments made on the disputed tei>
ritory but t0 fire upon his ne j g h
bor. his sons, and servants. They
obey orders, and kill several
them ' They are - however, finally
,aken into custod y and brought to
tria1 ' An attorney for the servants
pleads that those servants were
bound to obey their master, and
quotes these words from the Good
Book: “Servants, obey in all things
your masters according to the
flesh.” But. on the other side, it
is shown that the “all things” en
j oined are on j y « a n things law
ful.” For this obedience is to be;
rendered “as to Christ”; and.
aga in, “as the servants of Christ,
doing the will of God from the
heart.” No juo'ge or jury could

worshipped everything from the

then, plagued their gods After
