In speaking of the new county!
movement In general, Col. Hawkins
said: "Representatives from tho
northern portion of the stats are not-
going to deny us new counties in
south Georgia. We need them. Ths
Justice of our claim Is apparent by
reference to any state map. We have
larger countie* In south Georgia than
are to be found In almost any oth'er
atate In the Union. From four adjoin
ing countie* right here. Including
Dooly and Worth, from five to eight
new counties larger than Oconee
county. Georgia. could be created with
some territory to apere.
"We have a sandy country here, snd
It cost* mor* to keep our roads In
good condition. We can never have
good road* until we have *m*II coun
ties. If a man has 50 feet of sidewalk
he can afford to lay tile even, but If
j he has a mile or more he cannot af-
I ford to lay brick or clay. It Is the
‘ name way with counties snd public
roads."
J - CoL Ha» kln? -old that he has been

I even In other state*. "Almost every
