Ralph L. Ramsey
Urges Children’s
Citizenship Course
Ra^jh L. Ramsey, executive
secretary of the Georgia Educa
tion Association, fired the open
ing gun thus week in a campaign
to have school children included
in a citizenship program to be tied
in with present plans -for national
defense
Although expressing himself I
as
strongly in favor of the present
extension of vocational training
distribution of $250,000 in Fed
eral funds in Georgia, he stated: !
“It is well to train the youths
above 18 years of age, but that
will not remove the cancer of
psychological unparedness which
endagers democracy from within.
The guns Poland. Holland,
France. Austria, and Norway were
impotent against the traitors from
within. The best safeguard a
gainst the fifth column is to make
our children thoroughly familiar!
with the benefits of democracy
and religion within that demo
cracy.”
In a nation-wide broadcast or
iginating in Milwaukee during the
National Education Assosiation,
Mr. Ramsey advocated an exten
sion of tha citizenship day idea
which was first promoted on a
state-wide basis in Georgia.
14 was pointed out that there
wei*« about 20 million children
from tfh* kindergarten through the
stn-ewth grade, and that thus far
citizenship training had been
merely an incident lightly passed
over in courses in civics of Amer
imn history.

A field artillery regiment of the conquering Yazl army parades through Parts following the capitulation
of the French forces. In the background is seen the famous Arc de Triomphe, landmark of the captured
city on which are inscribed the military triumphs of the French armies under the Kmperor Napoleon. Once
before— in 1871—a conquering German army occupied Paris, following the Franco-Pi ussian war.
Gasoline Has Made Improvement
In QualitQy and Price Since 1920
tVhen you are out riding along
the highways, noting places of
scenic and cultural wonder, eas
>>.v visited by any motorist, it may
prove to be an interesting excur
sion for the mind to contemplate
the character of the power which
makes the journey possible.
It is not unusual for a 3,000
pound car to travel 20 miles on a
gallon of gasoline. If you could
stretch that gallon a distance of
20 miles along a highway the
stream would be only about 50
one-thousandths of an inch in di
ameter.
Hence, gasoline is one of the
strongest materials. For its tensile
strength, measured by its per
formance, equals 350.000 pounds
per square inch—just as strong as
the best alloy steel
A tiny thread of this everyday
liquid pulls a car 20 miles! Strong
indeed!
Both gasoline and automobile
engines have been greatly im
proved in recent years. The motor
fuel of a decade ago would be
demned by any driver of today’s
high-compre^sion engine,-^-it
ply wouldn't be satisfactory.

Nickel-A-Ba!e
War Chest For
Cotton on Way
Cotton Council Will Work
For Increasing of
Consumption.
Cotton firms and cotton 1
farmers i
area were called on today by Pre
sident Oscar Johnston of the Na- I
tional Cotton Council for “100 per
cent allegiance in cotton’s total
war for increased consumption.”
In a message addressed to local
producers throughout the county
President Johnston declared that
“the raw cotton industry is arm
ing as never before in its history i
to smash down the blitzkrieg of
substitutes, surplus, and foreign i
competition.”
The message came simultan-!
ously with the National Cotton I
Council’s announcement of a un-1
iversa 1 service” plan to provide)
funds with which to carry on the
fight during the coming year.
The plan, to go into effect
August 1, calls for a defense fund
of five cents on every bale of
lint and three cents on every ton
of seed, mobilized with the help
of each of the five primary raw
cotton interests. !
Under the new plan, arrange
ments have been perfected enabl
ing the producer to make his nic
kel-a-bale contribution at the
first point of sale, either to the
cotton merchant, large or small
or the g inner or wareshouseman
acting as merchant. This contri-!
button is carried on from mer- j
chant to compressor, who remits
the accumulated funds to the
Council when the bale is first
compressed, or from merchant to
textile mill which remits on un
compressed cotton.
Similarly, contributions on
seed, which are made by the gin
ner and crusher, are assembled
and remitted to the war chest by
the oil mills.
“For fifty years we cotton far
mers have been talking about an
organization like the National
Cotton Council to defend our
markets and find new ones
through judicious advertising, in
telligent research, and organized
opposition to restrictive legisla
tion. At last we have it, and in
two years, equipped with modern
weapons, it has accomplished
more than any of u* thought was
possible in so short a period.
“Domestic consumption has
been brought back virtually to
the all time high, with every in
dication that a new record can be
set in 1941. Plans are ready for
a vigorous attack on the acute
problem of foreign trade. Coun
cil scientists are on the trail of
new uses. A united cotton indus
ry ha* gone to war.” •
Robert W. Mowry
Wins Scholarship
Robert W. Mowry, 17, son of
Dr. R. B. Mowry, of 1362 West!
Peachtree street, Atlanta, has I
been awarded a four-year schol
arship to Birmingham-Southern
College in Birmingham, Ala.
Young Mowry won the scholar
ship in a competitive examination
given on general intelligence and
English grammar, receiving
highest grade of the 200 students
competing for the honor awarded
by the Birmingham chapter of
Phi Beta Kappa.
He was graduated with honors
from the Gulf Coast Military
Academy, in Gulfport, Miss., in
.June. He attended Bass Junior
High School, and is a native of
Griffin, Ga. He also won a year
and-a-half scholarship to Emory
University in a recent competitive
examination sponsored by the
alumni of the school based on
j general educational background.
while the old gasoline had power,
it was lacking in those modern es
sentials of quick acceleration,
knockless performance, and oth
er “refinements” so conspicuous
ly exemplified in best grades of
gasolines being sold today.
To complete the picture, it
should be remembered that 20
years ago, the average price for
a gallon of this power-giving fluid
was nearly 30 cents, 29 3-4ths
cents to be exact. That was the
average service station price in I
i 1920 in 50 representative U. S. |
cities.
In those same cities in March,
1 1940, the price was dow r n to al
most 13 l-4th cents (exclusive of
taxes) less than half its former
price. A vastly better gallon of
gasoline for less than half the
| cost! fuel enables
This modern motor
you to see more of those things
i which interest you in this won
derful South of ours. Gasoline is
one of the miracles of our age. We
owe it an occasional thought—and
j a vote of appreciation.

pointed out that there was no
guaranee that this money would

Arnold said in a letter to the

500.000 that there will be insuf

would go so far as to say that
