30-Pound Rock fish
Here’s a story of a big one that
didn’t get away, but should have.
Nannie Parks, Baker County
negress, and her son were fishing
on the Flint River where high wa

mouth of a spring. Nannie was
fishing with bream and using a
small bream hook and No 8 sewing
thread line for a line.
The rockfish broke up a series
of bream catches, but Nannie
couldn't land it. So she sent her

night and family all feasted the next day rockfish the J I

Huiet Announces
Insurance Pay
Jobless insurance in the amount
of $7,225-39 was paid to eligible
workers in Newton County in Ju
ly, Commissioner of Labor Ben T.
Huiet has announced. All pay
ments for the month totaled
$501,050, the largest amount dis
bursed in any month since bene
fits first became payable in Jan
uary of last year. Previous largest
amount was $423,086 paid out in
June.
Number of payments issued in
July was reported at 80,716 'as
compared to 68,905 the previous
month.
Increase in payments was at
tributed to curtailment of opera
tions in many mills, shutdowns in
seasonal establishments and a
general slackening in building and
trades.
Since 1937, when the Unem
ployment Compensation Law was
enacted, subject employers have
paid more than $25,000,000 into
the Unemployment Compensation
Trust Fund, it was stated. Ac
cumulated interest and other in
come has swelled the total to ov
er $28 000,000. From this amount,
almost $6,000,000 have been paid I
to unemployed workers in bene
fits and over $2,000,000 is being
held in trust for the Railroad Re- ■
tirement Board until the amount
can be legally transferred.
All contributions, it was ex
plained, are deposited to the cred
it of the Georgia Unemployment
Compensation Trust Fund in the
National Treasury in Washington,
D. C., and can be used only for
the payment of benefits. All ad
ministrative expenses of the agen
cy are paid by grants of the Fed
eral Government.
Intelligent feeding and manage
ment of the cow before calving
