C. C. Baggs, who gells more Fords
in a year than there are good roads
to run them on, probably will be
helping make traffic and other or
dinances in Atlanta in 1920, if the
optimism of his friends in West
End is justified.
Mr. Baggs is a candidate for the
City Council to represent the Sev
enth Ward, and is making a lively
campaign. He is known as a good
business man and his supporters
say there never was a time when
business methods were moye needed
in the city administration.
Since Mr. Baggs came to Atlanta
and entered the automobile business
several years ago he has® made
many influential friends and is
constantly receiving renewed assur
ances of support in his race for
council.
Railroad Causes Citizens
To Lose Too Much Sleep
(By luurn-flcfllm Service.)
BEVANSTON, I, u{. 30.—Evanston
eitizens say they are losing too much
sleep and they are blaming the (hicago,
Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad. 8o
petitions are being circulgted agrinst the
switching of cars between 11 p. in. and
3 a. m. But the council doesn’'t meet
until September,
Our own experience with
the largest and foremost
makers in this country
prompts us to suggest that
furniture should be bought
at the earliest convenient
moment. Delay means dis
appointment and—higher

HEARST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN — A Newspaper for People Wwho ‘r'hink — SUNDAY, AUGUML 31, 1919,
Keep Your E, Miami;
eep rour Luye on iami,
It Has the Atlanta Spirit
IAMI, on the famous East Coast of Florida is a town
M after Atlanta’s own heart,
Miami believes in itself, against any gol-durned
place on earth. And Miami is exactly right. That’s why Miami
has grown 300 per cent in the last nine years.
Miami boosters are on ‘‘the job.”’ Sunday, a week ago,
The Atlanta Sunday American did a little bragging about
Atlanta, which The American likes to do as a regular thing.
We quoted some figures, a preliminary census of cities of
30,000 or over, showing how Atlanta had grown more than 50
per cent since 1910, increasing its lead over Birmingham and
other places.
Growth of other Southern cities was also shown, based
on the figures furnished by the Newspaper Feature Bureau.
Miami was not in the list.
But now comes one John R. Livingston, of the staff of
the Miami Daily Metropolis, and deposes as follows: ‘‘Miami
has grown more than 300 per cent in nine years. You wake up,’’
or words to that effect; and he encloses a clipping from his
paper, stating that Miami, which was only a village of 7,500
in 1910, is now a thriving city of approximately 30,000 in 1919.
Furthermore, that in building Miami ranks second in the
Southeast to Atlanta itself.
Bully for Miami!
That word ‘‘approximately’’ vindicates The Atlanta Sun
day American and the Newspaper Feature Bureau, because
the census only included cities of 30,000 or more. Nevertheless,
The American is so strong for the spirit of Miami and so proud
of the rapid growth of cities in the great Southeast, that it is
a real pleasure to help tell the world about that thriving spot
in Florida.
Stimulation of production through
organization of the producers and re
duced labor costs on the farm is sug
gested as one of the remedies for the
high eest of living by the Georgia
State department of agriculture.
Speaking of the agitation over the
high cost of living, Commissioner of
Agriculture J. J. Brown said:
“While there has undoubtedly been
some profiteering in the necessities
of life, one of the greatest causes
of the high cost of living is the fact
that America is exporting millions
of tons of food to Europe; and an
other is the policy of our own BOV~
ernment in paying wages so much
higher than can possibly be paid for
labor on the farms, |
FARM LABOR DRAINED. |
“The result has been a drainage of
labor from the farms for the last
twenty-four months,. and the real
cause in a nutshell is that we now
have an excess of consumers with a
scarcity of producers.
“The only way 1o encourage pro
duction, thereby reducing the high
cost of living, is to see that the pro
ducer is paid for his products a fair
margin above the cost of production,
thereby enabling him to put his busi
ness on a basis with other industrial
lines. In other words, the producer
should be in a position to secure
needed labor in the open market and
ro hold it.
“As cotton is the basis of cash
farm products in the South, the busi
ness interests combined with the
farming inlerests are now organizing
he American Cotton Association with
1 wiew to maintaining a price that
will mean a fair margin of profit
ibove the cost of production.
CAN INCREASE PRODUCTION,
“That will enable the farmers of
the South to increase production by
being in position to offer substantial
wages, thereby inducing workers to
come back tg the farms.
“Organized capital and organized
labor are protecting themselves, and
have long done so; but the unorgan
ized farmers are being crushed be
tween the wpper and the nether mill
stones, through the demoralization of
labor and its withdrawal from the
farms and through the heavy costs
put upon them for their materials
and supplies and for increased freight
rates,
. “These are some of the things

Atlanta’s Only Store for
Boys Exclusively
““Better Shoes tor Boys’’
This means less strain on Dad’s pocketbook. It re
quires ‘‘mighty’’ good shoes—the ‘‘Better Shoes for
Boys’’ to withstand the kicks and other rough usage to
which a real Boy subjects his Shoes.
THE BOYS’ SHOP SHOES are’built with this fact in
view. The best leathers (in blacks and browns) are used
in the making. Excellently constructed—strong, flexible
soles—comfortable throughout.
They are as stylish as they are strong—models suit
able for school and dress. We can fit Infants with their
first Shoes and up to Young Men of twenty.
WH wish to state—that while our Fall and Winter
Shoes are here and coming daily—our facili
ties for service are of necessity improvised during
our store remodeling. This is only temporary and in
a few days our Shoe department will be located on
our Second floor—where there will be nothing lack
ing in every modern facility for service,
We thank our friends for patiently bearipg with
our disadvantages during this re-building per‘iod. ¢
