TELL THE TAX COLLECTOR
Atlanta, Feb. 22.—The European
war has brought a unique indirect re
sult to Georgia by making this state
the temporary residence of men who
control on a conservative estimate
more than one-third the tofal wealth
of America, .
The colony of multi-millionaires
who are spending their winter this
year on Jekyl Island, is said to be
‘double what it has been in the past
years, augmented by numbers of kings
of finance, who in the past have been
accustomed to spend the cold® months
on the Riveria, in Algiers, or in South
ern Italy. |
The Morgan, Rockefeller, Gould and
Carnegie family are all represented
The advantage seems to be one which
Georgia will retain after the war,
as numbers of the rich pleasure-seek
ers have ereceted magnificent homes
which they expect to return regular
ly from year to year.
Mrs. W. E. Hale has returned from
a delightful visit to her father, Mr. S.
M. Cottele, at his country home in
