Now that the Chicago eonven
tion is over and the delegates are
home again, one fact stands out
a mountain above a plain,
1 his fact is that the New Deal to
day is stronger than it ever was
oeiore. The Democratic party is
unequivocally and aggressively
the New Deal P arf F wil1 8° down
that lme without swerving in the
campaign that now commences.
Roosevelt and the New Deal
were strong enough to carry 46
states in 1936. Roosevelt and the
New Deal very probably will be
strong enough to carry 48 states
in 1940. As Walter Lippman, the
noted commentator, said a few
days-ago in commenting on the
President’s re-nomination, he was
re-nominated because he was the
first choice and the only choice
of millions of voters.

It is amazing to see men who
have heretofore been severe in
condemnation of the New Deal,
and bitter in criticism of Roose
velt, now declaring that the best
interests of the country, the very
safety of the nation, demand his
continuance at the helm. To dis
pense with his pre-eminent
knowledge of world affairs, his
magnificent statesmanship, would
be a disaster in the awful crisis
imperiling free institutions around
the world.
Even Eugene Talmadge sees the
handwriting on the wall, and
makes a grudging, half-hearted,
unconvincing assertion of his in
tention, if elected Governor of
Georgia, to “co-operate’’ with the
Roosevelt administration.
Under the New Deal the South
has made more progress along ev
ery line in seven years than it had
made in sixty-eight years inter
vening between the close of the
War Between the States and the
start of the New Deal. In that pro
gress Georgia has enjoyed a very
liberal share, and will continue to
enjoy a liberal share, with a con
tinuance of the New Deal unless
she should have in the Governor’s
office a New Deal hater, throwing
monkey wrenches into the New
Deal at every opportunity.
Henry A. Wallace is a fine run
ning mate for Roosevelt. He has
done more to benefit American
agriculture than all other Secre
taries of Agriculture in living
memory. Georgia farmers have
benefited immeasurably from
Wallace’s farm program, which is
an important part of the New
Deal. In 1938 the Georgia tobacco
growers were advised by Wallace
to vote for curtailment. They vot
ed for curtailment and received
eighteen million dollars for their
crop.

Ga. Industry Being
Checked In Survey
Maintaining its status as the
principal consumer of treated
timber, the railway industry dur
ing 1939, gave preservative treat
men to 245,219,878 cubic tteet of
timber, of which 47 per cent went
for cross ties and switch ties, ac
cording to a survey just recently
completed. The preservation of
railway cross ties and switch ties
is an established practice which
contributes substantially to eco
nomical operation.
The report which was prepared
by R. K. Helphenstine, Jr., Forest
Service, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, in coopera
tion with the American Wood
Preservers’ Association, pointed
out that 56 per cent of all ties
treated last year were impregnat
ed with creosote; 41 per cent were
given treatment with creosote-pe
troleum mixtures; 9.2 per cent
with zinc chloride; 0.5 per cent
with zinc-meta arsenite, and 0.13
per cent with miscellaneous pre
servatives.
Crossing Accident
Shows Rig Increase
“It is disturbing to learn from
the latest figures that, there was
a sharp increase in the number
of grade .crossing accidents dur
ing the first five months of 1940.
resulting in 194 more fatalities
and 345 more injuries than in
the same months of 1939,” de
elaresthe Railway Age.
ates the tendency of the exten
sive program of elimination,
separation and protection of the
ings to lower the number of ac
cident s at such crossings in re
cent years, it is little comfort to
find that there were only 18
fewer such accidents in the Uni
ted States in 1939 than in 1939,
and that the total number re
mained as high as 3.476, result
ing in. 1,398 fatalities and 3,999
injuries The real problem is
created by motorists. The re
cords show that the percentage
of grade accidents in which mo
tor vehicls are involved is ex
cessively high and has changed
but a little in recent years.
Rivers Drafted For

friends would like to see. They
gathered last week at Lakeland

Confrol Will Aid
Grower Says Roberts
Commissioner of Agriculture
Columbus Roberts today expres
sed satisfaction over the fact that
control of tobacco acreage for the
southern stales was approved by
the growers in the elecion July 20.
“With the export buyers vir
tually. out of the markret this
year, no one knows what the price
will be, but with the assurance
of limited acreage for three years,
prices will be steadier than they
could have been without control,"
th commissioner pointed out.
“Georgia has profited in the
past by control measures,” he re
called,
“In 1938, the crop grown under
control brought Georgia farmers
$18,000,000 while last year’s crop,
not under control, brough only
-i” 000,000 for a much larger crop
a diff erence of $6,000,000.
