VOTE AGAAINST JOHN TANARUS, BOIFEUILLET FOR PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSIONER For a man to havt held office con timiously for the past thirty-five ‘ arg a3 Honorable John T. Boifeu.il- Irtboasts of having done, with never mytliing reflecting substantial ser ‘V i n the various positions he has l'h in America and in Europe, don’t '’think it is time for a change? He has been the recipient of §30,000 in salary, with interest at 6 per cent iince u oing on the Commission, and I S charge that he has never done any thing of substantial value for the masses of Gtorgia. On the contrary, h? has given his time almost exclu sively to newspaper work, for which h B is paid a handsome salary, in vio lation of the law and his oath of of fice. He has voted against placing twenty-one hundred small shipping points in Georgia on an equal footing with thirty-odd large shipping points in Georgia which, had his views pre vailed, would have resulted in great loss and handicap in the way of gr oW th to the rural sections of Geor gia. It has been within his power since last January to have join ed others and lowered rates on fertilizers and pulverized limestone, for agricultural purposes, if he cared to do so, with tht result that count less thousands of dollars would have been saved the farmers of Georgia on the 1924 crops.

", Webb spent with relatives at Royston. duties of his office today thaa he dU the day that he wtnt in office,, due largely to the fact that he has given his time to newspaper work, at the expense and with great loss to the citizens of Georgia. Our State Highway Department is .torced to incur an expense against the tax-payers of the State of ap proximately $500,000.00 a year, be cause of the high rates maintained in Georgia on sand and gravel, as ap ply on such when moved from with out tht state into points in Georgia, He recently voted for the payment of an Engineer of over SIBOO.OO for an inspection of passtnger coaches, which work lie should have done him self. His record has been one of wasteful extravagance of the funda provided for the work of the Com mission, and with no substantial ser vice to the people as a Commissioner I believe he ought to be dtfeated, and if I am elected as his succesor, I pledgt a sane and equitable dis charge of all duties devolving upon me as one of your Commissioners, and I will stay on the job. Office holding in Georgia, as a sidt line, must stop; office holding is prac tically all Mr Boifeuillet has ever done since young manhood. Rtspectfully, O. R. BENNETT, Eastman, Ga.

FUTURE TRANSPORTATION. THE DAWES PLAN. OF WHAT WOULD YOU THINK? “Wheat prices jump in wild bull market.’* That headline was predicted in this column a long time ago. You read it yesterday and you will read more like it. “May wheat” sells above $1.40 in Chicago. One dollar and fifty cent wheat isn't far o*T. And that is not bad news for Calvin Coolidge. As for corn, its high price means wealth for farmers lucky enough to raise any, and high coat for tho meat that is fed on it. Steel common above 110, com worth more than $1 a bushel on the farm, twenty cenjtq more than that in Chicago; wheat for delivery nex May selling at $1.40, stocks crawling up so that brokers, afraid to buy, rub their eyes saying to themselvos “It can’t be real.” SOMEBODY thinks were is a boom coming. Lieutenant Donald Phillips flew 1,300 miles from Texas to Ohio. You may say, “That’s nothing, overybody does it.” But notice tho size of his flying machine, called “Alouette,” spread of wings 18 feet, total weight including motor, 480 pounds. <u That machine does 20 miles on a gallon of gas, goes 108 miles an hour, and could take a traveling man from New York to Chicago in 9 hours across the continent in 30 hours. “Alouette” could be stored on an “upper shelf” of a garage, the earth car below, flying car above. Next width will be cut from tho wings, weight taken from the en gine, speed more than doubled. And the individual transportation prob lem will be solved. Tho Dawes plan will have its trial and the world will see what hap pens. Germany gets four years to pre pare big reparation payments ex pected to amount to $650,000,000 annually. We thought it pretty big when vre built the Panama Canal in sev eral years. Germany will pay those that conquered her enough to build three Panama Canals every year, if this plan goes through. What books would you take to a desert island ? What would you do if you knew you had only one more year to live ? What would you do if you hud twenty million dollars? Helen Stein, intelligent young secretary of Nathan Straus, replied to that last question, “I’d go crazy.” Those are old questions. Hero is anew one, based oa the experi ence of three Italian mountain climbers, that, held by a rope, hung for five hours over a moun tain precipice, waiting : be .sa/’d. What would you ThTNK about hanging for five hours bt low the edge of a precipice? Would you review your sius and mistakes, vowing better conduct, if spared, or would you just HANG OVER THE PRECIPICE? We are all hanging over the edge of one steep precipice, called death. A great majority of us “just hang” and think about it very little. What story of loneliness, despair and, perhaps, jealousy, lies bide of a dreadful m. order aid attempted suicide reported from Lindsey, On tario? A mother twenty-eight years old, in her husband’s absence, erected an improve ed gallows, on which she Lunged her two children aged seven ind eight. She then cut her throat, and v/as found bleeding to distil by her own husband when he returned to their lonely, isolated farm from “a visit to the city.” Afer she had hanged the children, the mother dressed them in their best clothes and laid them out. Then she cut her throat. She may get well. The woman said nothing but “they are dead,” when her hus band questioned her. Reading about that may by com parison comfort some who think they have serious troubles.
