Millions of dolars in taxes, appar ently lost through failure to file claims, may be put back into the pockes of southern taxpayers as the result of a new law extending the time for making claims, according to announcement made here today by tax experts. The new law, as explained here by Frank Hempstead, tax counsellor of Atlanta and Washington, affects claims for refund on taxes erroneous ly collected for 1917 and 1918. The time limit, under the five-year period, where no claims had been made, ex pired on March 15th. Under the new law, embodied in house resolution No. 6901, which has been signed by President Coolidge, the additional time of one year, or until April 1, 1925, has been allowed for fil ing claims for refund for 1917 taxes, fund for 1918 taxes has also been ex tended until April 1, 1925. Waivers on claims for the year 1918, however, must be filed before June 15th of the present year. The waivers for the previous year -are already on record, though the additional year is allowed for filing the ctaims on which they are based. The legislation, involving as it does many millions of dollars, as Mr Hempstead pointed out, is of far reaching importance to tax payers in every section of country, as they will now be enabled to make claims on which the time limit had previously expired. Voem Unde John I’ve a mighty good opinion of the plain, old-fashioned plan, that they shouldn’t run fer of fice till the office seeks the man —for, it’s mighty nigh disgustin’ when we contemplate the mob, that cavorts around the coun try simply huntin’ fer a job! Of course the princely sal ary’s a mighty temptin’ bait to the crooked politicians that would like to serve the state, — but I call to mind the doin’s of some over-trusted men who would serve the country safer— if we had ’em in the pen! I’ve watched the game impar tial—and I’ll state in white and black, that we better watch the candidate that’s first upon the track. . . . And, when I cast my ballot, as I’m mighty apt to do, you’ll see me scratch the feller that has the least to do! “THE DUTCH DETECTIVE” Luxomni, Ga., R. 1, April 4 News-Heraid, Lawrenceville, Ga.f Will you please announce in your paper that the Woman’s Missionary Society of Loganville will present a play, at the Snellville school audi torium Tuesday night, April 15th.

New Orleans, La., April 7. —That Georgia is taking the lead in efforts to control the boll weevil is evidenced by reports to the National 801 l Wee vil Control Association that a large number of business organizations and chambers of commerce are taking an active part in campaigns to encourage farmers in the application of control measures, Clarence Ousley, director of the association, announced here. While there seems to be a great amount of merest taken in the move ment in all parts of the cotton belt, Mr. Ousley declared that the county agents in Georgia are receiving more support from business interests than in other states. There are several counties which have engaged in stren uous campaigns, he said, and the chambers of commerce are arranging county and community meetings, dis tributing literature and placing all facilities for fighting the boll weevil within reach of the cotton growers. Bankers also are arranging to ex tend to farmers for the purchase of equipment and poison to combat the boll weevil, the director stated. The most recent campaign to be reported to the control association’s office is the one being carried on by the Albany, Ga., chamber of com merce. This organization is not con fining its activities to the home coun ty, according to the report, but is ex tending the campaign to several neighboring counties. The county agent met with the sec retary of the chamber of commerce recently and formulated plans for the campaign The plans were submitted to the board of directors and were adopted. One of the first steps taken was to arrange for the sale of calcium arsenate from a “peddler” car and all farmers were notified that the poison could be purchased in 100 pound lots at 12 cents a pound. County agents, with their cotton committees, were asked to meet the board of directors of the chamber of commerce to discuss informal.y ways and means to combat the weevi' in that territory, “ihe Albany ch irnber of commerce desiring to be of what ever practical s ssistance possible and standing ready to lend aid in all par 'ieulars to the end that a normal cot ton crop will not < nly be made out will be save! irom the boll weevils rapacious appetite,'’ said the secre tary. Lette;s also Lave been sent to the farmers enclosing leaflets isuied by the Nati >o:il 801 l Weevil Co'itr >1 As sociation an ! a leaflet from f b : Geor gia sta’e board of entomolo?/. Ac tivities along these lines are to be continued throughout the season. Reports of such campaigns are con tinually coming into the control asso ciation’s office, Mr. Ousley said, and it is hoped that a majority of the counties in the cotton belt will be or ganized in time to assist in producing a normal cotton crop this year. The National 801 l Weevil Control Asso ciation stands ready to lend whatever assistance is necessary to promote county or community organisations, the director continued, and suggested that persons in counties where no or ganization has been attempted and who are interested in the movement should confer with the county agent on the matter or write to the National 801 l Weevil Control Association. lip m r [-r\K N ews-Herald LAWRENCEVILLE, GEO RGIA, THURSDAY, APRiL 10, 1924.

The school greatly appreciates all that has been done toward building up the campus by the various organ izations but to build up the campus as it should be all the people of Law renceville-will have to take part and work together. This work can be done and if it were accomplished it would help to build up a better spirit among the pupils of the school and the citizens of our city and its surroundings. Local Items.

PAYS NEARLY TWO MILLION DOLLARS Atlanta, Ga., April 7.—By the end of this week, the Georgia Cotton Growers Co-operative Association will have completed an advance of $1,900,- 000, which is the third payment on all cotton delivered by members of the association. Previous to this, advances have been made amounting to 20 cents per pound and the present advance will bring the total advance up to date, to 25 cents per pound, basis middling cotton. In announcing the distribution, President J. E Conwell, of the asso ciation, said that the credit and finan cial condition of the organization was excellent and that the distribution was being made after a careful dis cussion of marketing conditions by the boards of directors, Continuing, Mr. Conwell said: "It gives us much hope, too, to know that our cotton growers, as evidenced by the new contracts we are daily receiv ing, that our bankers and business men, are coming to accept co-operi tive marketing as established and sound business in the south. “The directors of the association have carried out the membership con tract that all our members hare signed and the recent experiences of ali cotton growers den onstrates lo my mind more than ever :he sound ness and more so the necessity of the cotton producers and those depending in ration, adopting the cooperative marketing that will sooner or later give all of us fair p •: es for ojr cot ton that we produce. “We appreciate no less the splendid support o* those sc ires and scores of unselfish business men in all sections of the state that have cast their lot • ith the co-operative system. It is enough to encourage the discouraged and give hope to the hopelss,” de clared #’!. Conwell. He ts id further, “AU ol our mem bers are almost unanimously of one mind livt a concerted effort has been nadc to break up the cotton co-operatives and this has served to a rouse among the members and even amongst many non members, the feel ing that cottpn speculators realize the growth and success of co-opera tive marketing and further, that the cotton growers can look to it as a hope of a mmketing system that will give them ’air prices for their cot ton.” The ass>?!s:Lon will handle, possi bly twice as much of the 1923 c,op as it did. of the D 22 crop, notwithstand ing the fact that Georg i produced only about (00(00 baev of cotton in 1923 as again more than 790,000 in 1922. The trial delivers in 1922 was somewhat greVer than one half of the delivery :r 1923. bo- this is ac counted for in the fact that when the assiciation w.i-s chart.; e.: in 1922, many of the an embers of the associa tion had on hand “o.J cotton' pro duced as far hack >,.• IMS. Under the terms of the cor.tr. rt, all of this was delivered to t:.p asso ciation during the season 1922 and the sum total of it amounted to sev eral thousand bales as evidenc- ’ by the records of the association. METHODIST CHURCH NEWS. Next Sunday morning at the Meth odist church there will be the usual services. The pastor will return from Newnan, where he is engaged in re vival services, to preach at. the morn ing hour at 11:30. Sunday school will be held at 10:30. The Epworth League will hold their services at 7 o’clock Sunday night.

The League presented a good pro gram at 7:30. A splendid congrega tion assembled at 8 o’clock for the evening service, when the subject was “How Much Land Does a Man Need?” \s usual we were delighted to have so large a number of visitors.

"CANNED HEAT” DEATH LIST NOW TOTALS 18 Toledo, Ohio.—The death toll in Toledo’s “canned heat” poison alco hol orgies rose to eighteen as police bent every effort to round up drug gist believed to be selling the new form of deathdealing booze.

Here is a new radio idea. British broadcasters will install a micro phone and very small transmitter in some wild wood, frequented by and the wonderful bird “not born for death” will be heard all over England. Suggestion for American broad casters. Instead of a bedtime story, let youfigsters hear the lion roar ing, elephant trumpeting, hyena laughing and baboon yelling from the zoo. It could be arranged by ad justing the feeding hours. Every boy would like it, especially the lion’s roar. “I’ll fight no more,” says Firpo, giant of the Pampas, “after this one fight with Reich.” The Argentine giant means to live his own life and leave the atmos phere of the prize ring, which does not please him. He even refuses the possibility of making half a million by one more fight in the United States. Firpo has met “a worse knockout than Dempsey’s.” A lady from Pari.', who acts, wants Firpo to go to France. Who was it betrayed the Capita'? —A woman. Who lost Mark Anthony the 'world?—A woman! Who was the cause of a long ten years’ war, and Klaid at last old T» •■>■ in ;».-i es?—Woman l And tic w it’s Fir.<3 » turn. Just 1 '< V years .era ye,.nr, Hart Pease Pariks and hi» wife lived har pily. He n wrote a song to toll her that his affec'io i would last forever. “Silver Threads Among the Gold” was the title of that son, yo:i remember it, well, if you're fifty. It’s a pretty song. Many have but chered it. It made money and when prosperity came in one door, har mony flew out of the other. Banks and his wife separated. His son and daughter have quarreled abour roy alties ira the song. In 1903 an old man was found dead, kneeling beside his bed in a Philadelphia lodging house. On an old copy of “Silver Threads” he had written this: “It’s hadr to grow old alone.” That was Banks. Last Friday his wife was buried. She had died at eighty-two, in a Brooklyn room ing house, where she lived alone. Construct your own moral, and be sure to include this: “It’s better to ptut a good house and lot in your wife’s name, or build up for her a respectable bank account, that you can't touch, than to sing to her “Yes, niy darling, you will be al ways young and fair to me.” Round the world fliers, encoun tering heavy weather, were tempor arily checked, and geese that never learn say “the flying machine will never be practical.” It isn’t so long since railroad time tables announced that trains would run at such an hour, “weather per mitting.” Weather doesn’t stop them now. It won’t stop flying machines, either, in another twenty-five years. There are three kinds of wealth only—the EARTH on which you stand, TIME, and man’s INTELLI GENCE. How wealth increases and time is actually increased or saved is shown by research of the National Association of Farm Equipment Manufacturers. Thanks to machin ery, saving labor, American farmers saved last year 1,382,539,204 days of actual work. Figured at $3 a day that would be a gain to the farmers of four billions of dollars. Farmers will wonder where the money is. The fact, unfortunately, is that the saving of time, money and cost due to perfecting of machinery goes largely to middlemen—not much of it to those that do the actual work. You would say that big muscles on arms and back are more valuable 1 earners than deep convolutions in the brain, as you read of offers | made to Mr. Jack Dempsey.
