- BiHM'5 REPORT
STRESSES NEED OF
HOME RRISED MEAT
Stressing the necessity of produc
ing Georgia’s own meat demands, it
is pointed out that a total of 30,-
164,846 pounds of dry salt rpeat, 5,-
015,667 pounds of sugar-cured smok
ed meat and 4,128,740 pounds of dry
salt smoked meats, making a, grand
total of 39,309,263 pounds of “side
meats’’ were shipped into this state
during 1923 by packing companies,
according to the report of State
Veterinarian Dr. Peter F. Bahnsen
on the meat situation, contained in
the annual report of the Georgia de
partment of agriculture for 1923 re
cently issued.
According to Dr. Bahnsen, this
shows that Georgia has depended
“to a large extent, for our meat
supply on packing pf-oducts.’
Further data compiled by the state
veterinarian shows that, convert© I
into 150 <>ound hogs, “and assuming
the side meat to average 12 per cent
of each hog, it required 2,183,848
hogs, weighing 150 pounds each, to
supply this part of our meat bill. ’
It would require each of our 160
counties in the state to produce an
additional 13,649 hogs in order to
place Georgia “on a self-sustaining
basis for side meats alone,” says the
report of Dr. Bahnsen.
Required 27,298 Cars
Pointing out the expense in trans
porting these hogs to market the re
port shows that, estimated on the
basis of eighty hogs per car, it re
quired 27,298 cars to haul these hogs
to the packing houses.
on a basis of twenty cars to a train
load.' it required 1,365 solid train
loads of hogs to supply the ‘side
meat’ for Georgia’s meat bill for
1923.”
“In the face of these facts,” con
tinues the report, “it seems useless
for Georgia farmers to complain that
there is no market for their hogs,
since a very large percentage of the
dry salt meats are consumed in ru
ral communities. And yet, in spite
of this fact, there are fewer hogs on
Georgia farms today than there have
been for many years. In my judg
ment, our meat bill for 1924 will be
materially larger than at any pre
vious year in our experience.
“I don’t think any one would ques
tion the desirability of producing
pork products enough to supply the
demands of the state of Georgia. If
we do so, however, pork production
must be put on an economically
sound basis. The prime necessities
for economic pork production are
healthy herds, composed of well
bred, thrifty individuals, liberally
fed on home grown feeds and sup
plied with an abundance of pure
water. This formula, within itself,
is simple, but, apparently, few peo
ple succeed in maintaining the com
bination called for.
A Business Problem
“Stimulating meat production in
the state of Georgia is not only a
problem for the farmer; it is a busi
ness problem in which the bankers
and every one in cities and towns,
as well as the country, is vitally in
terested. Several million dollars are
annually transferred to the central
and northwestern states for these
products, when, by proper organiza
tion, we could easily and profitably
produce these products at home,
thus adding to the wealth of the
state through the development of
what I consider ono of her most
wonderful opportunities.
“In this connection I have made
an effort to ascertain, as far as
practical, the number of animals
slaughtered in local abattoirs and
slaughter houses within the state
and find that at all slaughter houses
and packing companies, a total of
237,611 hogs were killed during the
year. Also 80,814 cattle, 36,852
calves, 3,385 sheep and 1,414 goats.
These animals were by no means all
raised in the state of Georgia, since
many of the animals slaughtered at
the White Provision company, at
Swift & Co., and at the Augusta and
Columbus plants are shipped in
from adjoining states. Georgia
should export—not import—meats
and food products.”

Stanford White's Slayer De-[
termined to Regain Re
spectability in Proud Vir-i
ginia Village Despite Odds;
WINCHESTER, Va., Aug. 28.
Harry K. Thaw, slayer of Stanford
White, once legally adjudged insane
and mentally perverted, has deter
mined to win a place in respectable ;
society from which for years he had
been excluded as a menace.
No more difficult spot in America
for his battle with public opinion
could have been found than Win-!
Chester, Va.. the little city he has
chosen as his future home.
This staid town which nestles in,
the Blue Ridge at the head of the;
Shenandoah Valley the home of con
servatism and stronghold of the first’
families of the Old Dominion, was
shocked by the news that Thaw, re
leased as cured from a Pennsylvania,
hospital for the insane, had pur
chased Kenilworth, for 150 years one
of the famous valley s show places.
Town All Upset
His advent already has torn the
town into opposing tactions, lids fair!
to wreck the leading church, has oc
casioned a demonstration of the
hooded knights and precipitated a so
cial war.
Thaw is in earnest about wanting
to become a leading citizen. He has
attended and seeks to join the Pres
byterian church, subscribed to all the
leading charities and enrolled in th’e
Charley Rouss volunteer fire depart
intent, a leaning see al orgnni.’. ition.

THE STORY OF THAW’S FIGHT TO REGAIN HIS RESPECTA
BILITY after years of confinement as a menace to the public is told
in. the accompanying photographs. First is Kenilworth, the historic
mansion near Winchester. Va., where the millionaire will attempt to
“get back to nature.” Below, left, is the latest picture of Thaw, a
photograph of the Presbyterian church, where he has applied for
membership; the pastor, Rev. W. H. Woods, who is being criticized
by certain of the congregation for his treatment of Thaw, and Chief
J. H. Dunn, of the local fire department, which Thaw has joined.
Other photos show Thaw’s nearest neighbor, Mrs. A. D. Kenney, and
her two children, and Thaw’s application to join the Charlie Rouss
Fire company.
Old line conservatives view his suc
cess with horror. The church dea-1
cons have been criticized for reserv- '
ing a special pew for him. The cler-1
gyman, the Rev. R. T. MacFaden,
has been berated for dining three,
times with Thaw and then inviting
him to membership.
MacFaden has left town for his
vacation and the burden of deciding ■
’ the case has fallen on his substitute,
the Rev. W. H. Woods.
*“lt isn't always wise to tear up
your flock by bringing in a disturb
ing element,” Woods said. ‘‘Still, sin
ners must be reached by the
church.”
When the millionaire put in a
crisp new S2O yellowback in the col
lection plate on his first day, other
members, not to be outdone, made
large donations, many of them top
ping his offering.
The trouble started when J. B.
Russell, Union bank president,
church pillar and social leader, called
on the Thaws. His visit opened the
way for MacFaden and others and
gave his enemies a chance to say he
had allowed wealth to overcome fam
ily reserve.
Mayor-elect Dr. J. *F. Ward has
i tried to bridge the gap among his
\ townsmen. He served notice Thaw
I must be given a square deal, but at
I the same time too great familiarity
i must be discouraged. He believes
i that ‘‘the prayers of the righteous
I availeth much,” but doesn't favor
mixing them up with prayers of the
1 unproved and untried.
That Kenilworth may not become
i the scene of city folks' high life or
gies. the Ku Klux Klan paraded to
; let the community know it intended
to check up.
The Society for Prevention of Cru
elty to Animals, hearing that Thaw
; was going to stock his farm with
■ pigs, rabbits, chickens and other do
mestic beasties, took alarm. Mrs
Robert Ward, S. P. C. A. president.
. recalled that Thaw was accused of
biting rabbits, and set the society’s
fifty members on waten
Miss Augusta Conrad made a visit
, to Kenilworth and saw a cat running
about without a tail. Her excite
ment abated when it proved to be
j one of a bob-tained variety. She has
promised to have Thaw arrested if
animals on his place come to grief.
Becomes a Fireman
This city of 7.000 souls which has
'never had even the excitement of
seeing a street car nearly collapsed
when directors of the Rousg Fire
• company admitted the famous stran
i ger. Every Virginia town prides it-
I self on its fire companies. Now the
Sarah Zane and Friendship compa
i nies are accusing the Rouss of tak
ing in the rich Pittsburger for the
' sake of his money. J. H. Dunn, en
gineer. says if the new member can't
make the grade and became a good
1 smoke-eater, out he'll go, money
i or no.
But while Winchester's tea parties
i are afhirry with gossip -and the busi-
ness men stand ibout debating the
; problem, Thaw himself is having
! no picnic.
; He keeps a secretary at the George
Washington hotel to act as a buffer
between him and the country folk
! who look upon him as a bonanza.
I They come from miles around to of
I fer everything from hound dogs to~
' antiques for sale.
Three country maids have offered
i to forsake the milk stool to become
j his bride. All day the curious be
siege him for just a glimpse, a word
j or a signature in a name album.
The way he meets his problem is
■ illustrated by an incident at the
People's drug store. Two girls were
j sipping sodas when one said:
“I'd love to see this man Thaw.”
The other answered: “I wouldn’t.
I’d be scared to death. He might
kill me.”
Thaw stepped up, and touching
the frightened one on the arm said'
"I’m Harry Thaw. I killed a man
in a just cause and I have no re
; gret. But I'll never harm anyone
else—especially a little girl.”
Everywhere he goes, the town
i gaze follows. He walks erect, with
l quick, nervous steps, his unusual
j height, gray hair, deep-lined face
and athletic figure marking him
j apart.
Mother Often With Him
Behind him is the ever-faithful A.
' J. Connally, four years his personal
attendant and bodyguard. Usually
his secretary accompanies him on
one side while his mother walks on
the other.
It is she who will win the town.
• i Though 82 years old, she still looks
• after her boy. Big, broad, white
! haired, majestical woman, slightly
I bent by years and tribulation, she
. I is still the grande dame of a great
family.
Harry to her is still the spoiled
child she's done so much to rear. Ho
■ still flies into tantrums and she still
. subdues and mollifies him.
•' At the hotel he demands instant
; service. If it is delayed he curses
like a trooper, stamps his feet or
pounds his hands on table or desk.
He's never still, but speaks nervous
ly. his eyes roving and seldom rest
’; .’ng long on any object.
Mrs. Thaw saves trouble by her
, generosity. In one day at the
George Washington hotel she dis
tributed SIOO in $5 bills to servants
who had suffered from her boy's
i tongue-lashings and temper,
f Thaw makes no apology for klil
-1 ing White. He is proud of having
' taken the law into his own hands
. In this he has the sympathy of the
- valley where unwritten law is strong.

OK KUI SPEECH
PDLITICOffIMITE
IN MAINE CAMPAIGN
AUGUSTA, Me., Aug. 23.—(8y the
Associated Press.) —C har 1 e s G.
Dawes, Republican candidate for
vice president, opened his speaking
campaign today in Augusta with
declaration of oppositjpn to the Ku
Klux Klan a,nd a denunciation of at
tempts by labor leaders to influence
“patriotic, lawabiding union men
into a political combination with so
cialists.”
Mr. Dawes had announced he
would “shoot straight from the shoul
der, politicians or no politicians,”
and the audience was gathered at a
Republican state rally at Island
Park, near here, prepared for some
hot shots. It was taken aback some
what, however, when the vice presi
dential nominee mentioned the name
of the Ku Klux Klan in his first
sentence, discussed that question at
some length, find then turned his
fire on “politicians cringing before
the whip of a few bluffing labor
leaders.”
“Appeals to racial, religious or
class prejudice by minority organiza
tions are opposed to the welfare of
all peaceful and civilized communi
ties,” he shouted with waving arms,
after telling of the rise of the klan
in Oklahoma and Williamson coun
ty, 111. “Our constitution stands for
religious tolerance,” he continued.
“To inject religious and racial is
sues into politicos is contrary to the
welfare of all the people and to the
letter and, spirit of the constitution
of the United States.”
The audience stood astonished for
a moment, for Maine is counted' by
klan leaders as one of the states
where the organization is the strong
est; then there was scattering ap
plause, but many of those present
merely looked at one another, plain
ly wondering as to the effect of the
statement just made on next month’s
barometric state election. There was
somewhat general applause, though,
when Mr. Dawes concluded the klan
portion of his address by saying:
“I have told you why I am op
posed to the klan. Take what I say
into your hearts and consciences
and think It over calmly. However
it may be with the mind, there is
no acrimony in conscience.”
Discusses Labor Unions
With the klan discussion ended,
Mr. Dawes launched into the address
he had prepared before leaving Ev
anston for Maine, and the applause
became more general, but there
were numerous looks of astonish
ment as he entered upon his’discus
sion on trade unionism.
“The benefits of trade union hon
estly administered are recognized
not only by me, but good citizens
generally,’whether in or out of trade
unionism,” he asserted. “It has ele
vated, protected and dignified labor,
and in so doing it has been an ele
ment in the progress of our nation.”
The text of General Dawes’ address
in so far as it deals with the klan
is as follows:
“I first "desire to speak, as Mr.
Davis did yesterday, relative to the
Ku Klux Klan. I agree with him
that it has no proper part in this
or any other campaign. But wheth
er proper or not, unfortunately in
this campaign a mobilization of rad
icalism under La Follette, the larg
est section of which, the socialists,
fly the red falg, is attacking the con
stitution of the United States. Lean
not agree, therefore, with his infer
ence that its discussion diverts at
tention from those issues the people
must settle in November by their
votes. It only emphasizes the great
est issue.
“The question of Mr. Pattangall,
which appear in the press this morn
ing are the familiar trick questions
of the ordinary politicians. They
are not the cause of the statement
I am about to make.
“Let me say at once that I rec
ognize that the Ku Klux Klan in
many localities and among many
people represents only an instinctive
groping for leadership, moving in the
interest of law enforcement, which
slayers has Increased interest in
Thaw. People wonder whether they
will eventually be released if sent
to an asylum.
For the fist time in his life the
millionaire proposes to work. He’s
going to don overalls and do farm
work for exercise and retire to his
well-stocked library for recreation
among his books on European his
tory, which is his hobby.
He’s not yet in his home which Is
being remodeled, but motors in from
Cresson, Pa., with his mother each
week. Usually he is accompanied by
two physicians.
Town Is Very Quiet
The place he has chosen seems
ideal. The town is quiet, to a de
gree, its 17 different religious de
nominations seeing to it that its
blue laws are so strictly enforced
nothing but a smile can be had on
Sunday, except religious services.
It is peopled by well-off farmers,
whose apple lands bring big returns.
Kenilworth, the Thaw place, is a
great limestone, vineclad pile with
true colonial lines of the old slave
days type. For 100 years it has
been the home of the Stephensons
and was built 50 years before they
came. It is four and one-half miles
from town, a stone’s throw from the
scene of Sheridan’s famous victory,
the Thermopolae of the Civil War,
and is famous for the finest spring
in the county. The building was
spared during the battle because it
was used as a hospital. The grounds
comprise 55 acres.

TUESDAY, AUGUST 26, 1021.
they do not find in many cowardly 1
politicians and office-holders. But >
it is not the right way to forward
law enforcement.
Cites aWlton Case
“Le,t us consider for a minute what
happened in the state of Oklahoma.
Goverr or Walton was tome time, ago
elected governor of the state. In
his campaign he had r.ot preached
the doctrine —so it seemed to me at
least —which was the proper one to
te preached under the American
flag. When he was elected, one of
his early acts was to remove the
president of the University of Okla
homa, a man who believed in the
old-fashioned doctrines of the consti
tution, to establish which our for
bears feught. He placed in that po
sition a socialist who was likely to
teach the young men of that state
some new-fashioned doctrines which,
to tay the least, are not those of
constitutional Americanism. He
then loosed upon the state of Okla
homa a horde of hardened criminals
from the penitentiary. Lax law en
forcement prevailed in many places
in the state.
“If there could be an excuse for
law-abiding citizens to band them
selves together in secret organiza
tions fol law enforcement, it exist
ed in Oklahoma, and the klan be
came a powerful organization.
Walton “Back to the Flag’’
“What happened then? Then
back stepped Governor Walton to
the American flag—to which, it
seems to me, he had not kept very
close up to that time—and called
cut the-militia of the state. Then
it was that those who had joined the
klan in the interest of law and order
found themselves arrayed against
their flag and the laws of Oklaho
ma. A situation akin to that of the
Civil war existed, and it was averted
only by a few clear-headed men.
“And then what happened? There
was the application of the only
method by which our people can
properly settle such differences —
the procedure outlined by the con
stitution and laws of the state of
Oklahoma. Walton was removed
from the governorship by the vote
of the people and quiet was restored
under the orderly process provided
by the constitution and the Idw.
“Consider what happened in Wil
liamson county, Illinois, Where the
town of Herrin is situated. A
reign of lawlessess existed. It was
marked by the terrible Herrin mas
sacre. It was marked by a general
breakdown in respect for law which
indicated that the officers of the
county, including the. sheriff, had
been intimidated by law breakers
into action. A thousand members
of the Ku Klux Klan, without dis
guises—they were brave men
rcarched to the office of the sheriff
of Williamson county to protest
against the lawlessness in that sec
tion. . ~
"If a secret organization to uphold
law and order is justifiable any
where in our country, it was justi-.
liable there.
Militia on Job Again
“But what happened? Immediate
ly the lawless element formed the
Knights of the Flaming Circle and
then both sides were afraid to go
out at night and a condition was
created which actually culminated in
civil war and the loss of life. And
how, again, was peace established?
By the only proper way , in the
sending of the militia of the state
of Illinois to the scene of the trou
ble, as provided by law in such
cases. The critical situation was
settled by it without shedding a drop
of blood and the troops were quick
ly removed.
“There is much In the Ku Klux
Klan which appeals to the adven
turous youth. I remember once
when travelling over Illinois, speak
ing for law enforcement, the consti
tution and the American flag, some
of the American Legion men with
me talked to other legion men who
had joined the Ku Klux Klan at
one of the towns visited. These lat
ter young men believed that they
were acting in the interests of law
enforcement. They told those who
were with me what they were plan
ning to do. They said there is a
bootlegger in our county who is in
cahoots with the sheriff and every
body knows it. Now we are not go
ing to hurt the man, but some night
we are going for him and his still.
We are going to gag him, carry him
and the still up to the court house
yard and tie him to it so that the
sheriff and the whole town will see
them when they come down to their
work in the morning.’
Recalls Blackand Days
“This may appeal to adventurous
youth, but my friends, government
cannot last if that is the right way
to enforce law in this country. Law
lessness cannot be met with lawless
ness and civilization be maintained.
What will happen if law is not en
forced by government but taken in
hand by individuals and by minority
organizations, is what happened
some years ago on Bloody Corner Ip
Chicago.
“Over one hundred murders were
committed there in one year and
not one single murderer was
brought to justice. The blackhand
was at work and the witnesses to
the murders refused to testify
against the murderers because they
felt their own lives were in danger
if they did.
“Now,” society contains within it
self the elements of its own self
purification. It has always been
so, or civilization, which is an evo
lution, would not now exist.
“After a time, in conection with
these continuing murders, two new
words crept into the press of the
city of Chicago,—the words ‘white
hand.’ In other words, the broth
ers, fathers and friends of the mur
dered men sawed off their own shot
guns and killed the murderers from
behind the same corner and thus
peace waa finally established at the
cost of bloodshed and misery
through that entire section of Chi
cago.
Keep It Out of Politics
“The same thing happens when
minority organizations, whatever
the high purpose they claim —what-
ever they may be called —take the
law into their own hands. Force
rises to meet force; lawlessness
rises to meet lawlessness, and civili
zation commences to disintegrate
into the savagery from which
i through the ages it has evolved.
“Appeals to racial, religious or
class prejudice by minority organi
zations are opposed to thi welfare
of all peaceful and civilized com
munities. Our constitution stands
for religious tolerance and freedom.
This happy country has never been
I through a religious war such as
! those which devastated Europe in
, the centuries past and brought un
■ told misery to millions of its inhabi
i tants. We have progressed in civi-
i.zation far beyond that possibility,
; but to inject religious and racial! s
! sues into politics is contrary to the
welfare of all the people and to the
. letter and spirit of the constitution
I of the United States.
I ‘ Josiah Quincy was right when
he said: ‘Society is never more
certainly in the path of destruction
■ -.than when it trusts itself to the
guidance of secret societies.’
I have told you why I am op
• posed to the klan. Take what I
; say into your hearts and conscience
I and think it over calmly. However
it be with the mind, there is no|
acrimony in 'conscience.”
An answer to John W. Davis’ ac
ceptance, some comment on the
tariff, and definition of his own
trade union opinions also were de
livered by Mr. Dawes.
He said Mr. Davis’ speech indi- i
cated “personal high purpose,” but
was the kind of oratorical presenta
tion "designed to put to sleep prac
tical thinking.” It was' unfair
Dawes said, to maintain that indi
vidual dereliction in a great organi
zation "alone justifies the demand
that an administration should be
thrown to one side.” He referred
to Davis’ "oratorical appeal” to in
stall in power "a party which has
demonstrated in the past business
incapacity.”
Os Mr. Davis’ attitude on foreign
relations, he remarked: “It sounds
well to say, as Mr. Davis does —‘if
I become president, America will sit
as an equal among equals, when-.
ever she sits at all.’ This has been
true, of course, at all times.”
Touches on League
He thought the inference from
Mr. Davis’ speech was that such a
matter as the “expert committee”
would have gone to the senate for
sanction, and predicted that there
in "futile debate” American partici
pation "would have perished be
cause the senate would not have
allowed the word ‘official’ to attach
to it.”
Regarding Davis’ attitude on the
league, Dawes asked: “But is he
practically constructive?” Dawes
added: “With him ‘I would welcome
the day when this great question
would be entirely lifted above the
plane of partisan politics,’ ” and then
said, “the situation demands some
consideration of the practical ques
tion how things are going to be
done.” The Republican program, he
continued, offers th© only present
policy possible of accomplishment.
Concerning Davis’ remarks on the
Fordney-McCumber tariff act, Dawes
said: “I wish I could find less af
firmation and more supporting data
in his speech.” He added that spe
cific facts would have been more in
order to support Davis’ statement
that ‘‘for every dollar this statute
has drawn into the treasury, it has
diverted five from the pocket of the
consumer into the pocket of the
favored few.” Dawes held that tariff
benefits go chiefly to labor, in sus
taining an American wage as com
pared with the European wage, and
sketched labor conditions he found
in Germany last winter. (
“The benefits of trades unions,
honestly administered, are recogniz
ed by me,” he said. Trades union
ism has “elevated, protected and dig
nified labor,” and “been an element
in the progress of our nation.”
Praises Labor Leaders
“Trades unionism stands loyally
behind its good leadership—and nev
er will follow the demagogue.” He
also referred to “those fine citizens,
the upright labor leaders of the
country.”
“I have been denounced,” he
said, “because I opposed the kind of
union tactics that have made build
ing operations in Chicago dangerous
to human life,” naming as factors
extortion, “gun men and the bomb
maker.”
‘‘Trades unionism, with a prepon
derant majority, does not apnrove
these conditions.”
Dawes predicted that ‘‘the few
labor leaders who are attempting to
influence patriotic union men into
a political combination with social
ists are endangering their own lead
ership.”
About the open shop, he said:
“The supreme court of the. United
States has held that the right of
employes in a body to bargain with
their employers for the closed shop
is one of the inalienable rights of
the individual under otir constitu
tion.” He added that, a political par
ty placing an open shop plank in its
platform would be striking at the
constitution.

WISE TO ffilW
FROM RACE IN BIN
FAYETTEVILLE, Ga„ Aug. 23.
Formal withdrawal of Congressman
J. W. Wise from the for re-elec
tion in the Sixth district, was an
nounced here this afternoon in a
statement given out by the secre
tary, B. D. Murphy. Continued ill
health was assigned as the reason.
Congressman Wise, who has
served ten years as representative
from this district, was taken ill last
November but until recently, his con
dition has shown improvement. A
recent set-back, however, resulted in
the decision to withdraw from the
race, leaving two other candidates
in the field, Ben J. Fowler, of Ma
con, and Sam Rutherford, of For
syth, both members of the legisla
ture.
The statement of the congress
man’s secretary follows:
“To the people of the Sixth Con
gressional district:
“Since Hon. J. W. Wise an
nounced as a candidate to succeed
himself as congressman from this
district, he has been stricken with a
severe and critical illness. From the
opinion of the physicians, it seems
extremely doubtful that he would be
able to discharge the duties of the
office. His family and friends know
that it he were physically able to
attend to the matter, he would be
unwilling to accept from the peo
ple election to an office which he
probably will be unable to fill. Upon
the advice of his family and friends,
I am taking the liberty of making
this statement to let the people
know that he is out of the race.
“I also take the liberty of express
ing for him again his - deep appre
ciation of the great confidence re
posed in him by the people and the
repeated honors they have bestowed
upon him.
“Very respectfully,
BASEBALL~~~
