(Our Advertisers Are Assured of Results) THE COVINGTON NEWS
Letter From Our Congressman
Capitol Hill,
Washington, D. C.
November 15, 1941.
My dear Constituents:
I spc t Armistice Day at home,
visiting Fayetteville in the morn
ing where I participated in the
very interesting and appropriate
exercises held in the High School
Auditorium under the auspices of
the Fayette County Post of the
American Legion. After the con
clusion of the exercises everybody
went over to the spacious and at
tractive Legion community house
where a delectable barbecue din
ner was served. The program of
music, recitations and memorial
service was most impressive and
well attended. If all our country
was as cooperative and patriotic
as the Fourth District of Georgia,
there would be no delays in our
program of defense, and men like
John L. Lewis would have no sup
port.
The strikes in defense indus
tries, the activities of men like

Lewis and Lindbergh and the so
called America First Committee
are provoking and challenging the
patience of the great bulk of our
people. They are trying to weak
en the morale of our people to
prevent their defense efforts. The
leadership of our government in
this crisis is wise and determined.
We are committed to a policy of
arming this nation so that it can
defend itself against any aggres
sion, and to help the nations fight
ing Hitler by furnishing them
arms and supplies. By doing this
we can keep the war over there,
Thursday afternoon the House
by a vote of 212 to 194, repealed

conflict and combat areas. These
were Senate amendments to the
Resolution passed recently permit

it has been. The attack of Hitler
o our merchant ships no matter
where they are nor what cargoes
they carry, the activities of Lind
i )er gh and his crowd, the parley
beginning soon with the Japanese,
the acts of j ohn L , Lewis —all
these things demand the serious
and thoughtful attention of all of
us—and we are doing what we can
for the defense and safety of
America.
Next week we take up the Hen
derson Bill—or price-fixing legis
lation. The whole Georgia dele
gation is working to prevent the
curbing of prices of agricultural
commodities, especially cotton.
More of this next week. The re
port of cotton ginnings of No
vember first show that our Dis
trict has ginned 70,370 bales up
to November 1 of this year. In the
same period of last year we had
ginned 94,216 bales, so we are
23,846 bales short of last years
crop.

Gaz White of Cartersville has
been elected to the coveted posi
tion of president of the local
Chamber of Commerce, but he
won't be present to receive the
honor. Mr. White will be “locked

He was drawn on jury selected
to try a criminal case.
Fights Image In

A mocking bird's apparent dis
like for his own image led to his
sad but necessary extermination
recently in Cornelia.
The bird was seen for several
days scratching at his reflection in
the side of Verne Knight’s auto
mobile. Moving the car into the
shade did not lessen the warbler’s
obsession; he clawed away at the
mocking bird with increased vigor.
Mr. Knight soon began to envision
