South Prepares
To Aid U. S.
Defense Plans
The South is going to be a
help to Uncle Sam in his national
defense program. In fact, the
South already has started march
ing in that direction. But it
be an orderly procedure. Here’s
what is being done:
Defense data on the South will
be presented to the Government
m a “sane and orderly manner’’
by a committee from 16
headed by R. L. Gould, of Balti
more, treasurer of the Manufact
urer's Record. This was decided
in Atlanta last week at a confer
ence of 300 bankers, industrial
ists, civic and state leaders at the
call of Governor Rivers, chairman
of the Southern Governors' Con
ference.
Governor’s of each of the 16
ticipating states will -be requested
to name representatives of their
basic industries on the general
committee. This group will have
charge of the task of lathering
data on climate, power, .abor and
financing facilities in a move to
“secure proper industries for the
proper locations” and prevent the
“confusion of individual
ties bombarding the War Depart
ment.”
Mr. Gould 1 and R. G. LeTour
neau, of Toccoa, were among the
principal speakers at the Atlanta
conference. Mr. Goulfl painted
picture of an “industrial empire
greater than the world has ever
known” for the South as a result
of relocation and expansion of de
fense industries. Mr.
urged the training of skilled work
ers in the South, and said modern
war mainly was a test between
machines. ^
Governor Rivers cautioned the
committee to keep in mind long
range planning for industrial de
velopment of the South, but that
this should be subordinated to the
national defense program, The
conference dispatched a telegram
to President Roosevelt voicing
“hearty cooperation in the pro
gram of national defense.”
1,387 Receive
Benefits in May
As a result of their unemploy
ment, insured workers in New
ton County under the State Un
employment Compensation Law
received $7,608.08 in benefits dur
ing the month of May, Commiss
ioner of Labor Ben T. Huiet has
announced. Number of payments
was reported at 1,387,
Payments for the entire state,
Commissioner Huiet said, estab
lished a new high record -with the
disbursement of $428,995.25, of
which approximately $418,000 was
workers in Georgia and
about $ 20,000 to workers in other
states who previously established
wage credits in the state
Represented by 71,167 checks,
the payments exceeded by over
$75,000 the previous high of $363
347.93 established in August of
1939. The previous largest num
ber of checks issued in any one
month was 56.678,
Increase in May payments was
attributed largely to seasonal shut
downs and layoffs in the textile
industry occasioned by an accu
mulation of inventories,
Volume of claims received con
tinued upward. Initial or new
claims were reported at 17,275
and continued claims at 70,692. It
was the fourth consecutive month
in which initial claims have shown
an increase, while the number of
j continued claims were reported to
be the greatest since March of last
year.

Hen “Hits” Road,
Rides the Rods

.
knows how to get around. Feeling
the call of the road recently, “Hen

es, stops, and high speed didn’t
faze the stowaway She held on
until frightened by a Douglas in
spector's flashlight.
