PAGE FOUR Arnall Resummons Redrafters Of New Georgia Constitution. Admittedly "disturbed' cause of unfavorable public re- action to the proposed new Ellis State Constitution, Gov. Arnall has called a meetinq of the 1 23-member State Com- mi o \ to Revise the Constitu- tir for Friday and Saturday, E em t 8 and 9. As chair¬ man of the commission, the gov¬ ernor in a Icutu to each memb- er urged "that' you strain every possible point to be present." The session held in Atlanta the middle of November, et at which recommendations were made, was to have been the final meeting, but with public criticism to the streamlined re¬ vision what it is Gov. Arnall feels it necessary for the com¬ mission to reconvene and re¬ consider some of the phases of the document that previously the were omitted. In his letter, governor said in part: "Since the last meeting of the Constitutional Commission I have received a large number of letters from citizens of the State expressing concern about the work of our commission. My press clipping file discloses that of the some thirty-live daily and weekly papers whose edi¬ torials have come to my atten¬ tion, they unanimously erpress keen disappointment that our commission has not dealt forci¬ bly with certain pressing pro¬ visions of importance. As a ter of fact, not a single person has expressed work. to me These commen¬ ob¬ dation of our servations and findings, quite naturally, are most discourag¬ ing to me, particularly since 1 serve as chairman of the com¬ mission. "I have carefully analyzed the criticism and believe that ninety-five per cent of the sin¬ cere part of it is due to our failure to do three specific things, namely: "(1) To provide for a realistic constitutional Civil Service System for State employes bas¬ ed on merit and fitness by writ¬ ing the provisions into con¬ stitutional law rather than ing to each succeeding legisla¬ ture and administration the power and authority to change and destroy the system. "(2) To provide a system of home rule so local matters and local may be determined by the ple of the municipalities and counties affected. "(3) To provide a al Board of Correction so prison reform may be and advanced in the ing years rather than ed and disrupted by those hate and discount the thus far made.

ATLANTA, Ga„ Nov. 29.— Georgia Commissioner of Agri- culture, Tom Linder, sold his hat here Sunday afternoon. It sold for $1,000, but Commiss- ioner Linder didn't get .the money. The money went to Uncle Sam—$750. for a $1,000 War Bond and the hat went Com-1 to he successful bidder—all missioner Linder received from the deal was the satisfaction of helping the best posible - ause The scene was the 6th War Loan Bond Auction Sale atthe Georgia State Fanner's Market in Atlanta. Sponsored by the State Department of Agricul- ture, the auction was respon- sible for the sale of $100,000 worth of War Bonds. Market dealers contributed over 100 crates of fruits and vegetables and a large crowd of bond-bidders bid lstily for the produce and the Bonds. Mr. Linder, principal speaker at the auction, became so en- thused at the patriotic fever of the large crowd that he gave | the auctioneer, Sgt. John G. Miller, his hat. After heated bidding, it went to an undis¬ closed bidder for $1,000- Mr. Linder was introduced by Ed S. Cook, civilian defense bond chairman. The auctioneer, Sgt. Miller, is an Army paratrooper, hav- ng recently returned from com¬ bat duty overseas where he was wounded. He saw action in both Italy and France. Also representing the Army was T- 3gt, F. E. Shipp, who fought ander General Jimmy Doolittle n North Africa and who also f ook part in the first raids on lome and Naples. The Commercial High School land furnished music for the ■program which was arranged by H. S. Dunn, general manag cr of the market, asisted by Mrs. Ruby Lowe Henley. Commissioner Linder express- ad keen satisfaction at the suc¬ cess of the Bond Auction and recommended War Eonds as he safest investment for Geor¬ gia farmers. lesAs Mount At Grade Crossings Deaths at highway-railroad jrade crossings .continue to nount. Here are the latest grom tatistics: Fatalities resulting from such rccidents during the first nine nonths of 1944 totaled 1,235, an ncrease of 68 over the 1,167 eported in the same 1943 per- od, according to the Interstate Commerce Commission's Bur- ■au of Transport Economics and Statistics. In the nine-month period 2,942 persons were in¬ ured in such accidents, com¬ pared with 2,799 in 1943's first hree quarters, a decrease of 57. Here in Georgia, railroad of- icials, pointing out that these rccidents seriously retard the var effort, again urge Georgia notorists to Stop! Look! Listen! >efore crossing a train track. Rev.

His favorite, the chief execu¬ tive admits, is this one: "There's no limit to the good a man can do if he doesn't care who gets the credit." The seven others are as fol¬ lows: "One man with courage makes a majority." "If you can laugh at your troubles, you will never run out of anything to laugh about." "Always do right. This will gratify some people—and as¬ tonish the rest." > "The saints are sinners who keep on trying." "A man's true wealth is the good he does in the world." "On the plains of hesitation bleach the bones of countless millions, who at the dawn of victory sat down to rest, and resting died." "The best way out of a diffi¬ culty is through it." Constitutional Commission have aken- the course of least resistance, have listened too intently to the professional poli¬ and ticians who want no reform too little o the people who real¬ ly expect us to blaze the trail for better government through a better Constitution. "This thing is tremendously important to the future welfare of our State- It is important to this administration. It is im¬ portant to all of us on the com¬ mission. The people expect us to utilize our rare opportunity to advance the interest of Geor¬ gia by an intelligent, progress¬ ive and forward-looking basic document of fundamental law. 1 know that some of the three pro¬ posals herein referred to are difficult to draft, are technical in their nature, and perhaps will prove tedious of operation, but I believe that if we will all give these problems our careful thought and study we can, to¬ gether, solve them."
