-The National Truckinc Code went
into effect Sunday. February 25.
This is another of the federal gov
ernment agencies to effectuate **feir
trade practice*", as applied to all
forms of tracking operations. If H
caa do that it is going to prove
truly wondaHul document lately
the trucking industry in Georgia as
well as other forms of motor trans
portation over the highway', ha«
been ft”ing into the Fame sort of
entanglement which once came near
running nil the railroads ’n the
country on the rocks- Wrangling
among themselves, and trying to cut
,.nch other’s threats. Sometime be
fore long the state Public Service
Commission is going to find itself
in error in the policy of lett'ng just
anybody and everybody who has any
kind of motor vehicle get out on
the highways. The road* are partly
for commercial convenience and use.
of course, but that thing is so rap*d-
ly over-runnmg them there isn t
•much space left on the main high
ways for the every-day ordinary
individual who has a little driving
to do himself.
“Was" Culpepper Racocmng
"Wes" Culpepper is jest out of
the hospital in Atlanta. Last week
the veteran member of the Hot» T e
of Representatives from Fayette
county «’as subjected to a minor
operation from wrich hn* has re
covered nicely. (Mr. Culpepper is
probably ope of the mo<t w’d-ly
known members of Georgia’s Gen
eral Assembly, due to long and con- ^
spicuoui service. He has untangled ! gossip".

Dr. Soule Also “Doing Nicoly”
Dr. Andrew M. Soule is still j
patient in the same hospital, and re.
port at this writing are that he is
doing quite nicely. He was subject
ed to a major operation and prob
ably will be confined to h : .s bed at
least a couple of weeks longer. Dr.
Scale, former head of the State
Collage of Agriculture, now is the
Georgia Director of the National
Emergency Council, which Is

of the federal government for all

ftivura for Commissioner?
One of the recert piece* of noliti-

“At 70 miles an hour the loads

“Engagement tof the overdrive
takes place automatically at a speed
of 40 miles an hour, which means
that it is in use a very large per

NEW GEOftCIA BAPTIST
CANCES CLINIC TO BE
FOUNDED AT HOSPITAL
(By G. N. A.)
Establishment of a new unit at
the Georgia Baptist hospital in At
lanta for treatment of cancer ia be
ing planned, and aril' be undertaken
immediately uncter definite plana,
details of which will he worked out
by a committee of the Georgia Bap
tist hospital comm’asion and the
hospital medical staff.
Enlargement of the cancer treat
ment and diagnostic clinic will give
Georgia the second such institution
in the Southeast, and is expected to
solve problems that have arisen witn
the Steiner clinic restricted to char
ity patients of Fulton county.
The commission meeting after the
medical staff of the hosp’tal had
proposed the new ward, approved the
plan, elected officers and director!
for the clinic, and announced that
all requirement* of the Ameri
Medical Association, the American
College of Surgeons end the Fulton
County Medical Society, will
met. Steiner clinic at present is the
only approved cancer-treatment hos
pital in the Southeast.
Georgia Baptist cancer d'nic will
be operated under the general sup
ervision of Superintendent W. D.
Barker, by Dr J. L. Campbell, di
rector; Dr. T. C. Davison, president
Dr. James J. Clark, first vice-presi
dent; Dr. Marion Benson, -second
vice president, and Dr. Howard
nailey, secretary. All are widely
known Atlanta physicians.
“For some time.” Mr. Barker said.
“The Georgia Baptift hospital has
operated a cancer department and
in the past two year* has treated
more than 400 cases. The new clinic
will be enlarged as to faciTties from
thne to time and will have its own
staff".
Member? of the commission are:|
Rev W. H. Major. Rev. Rvland;
Kn'ght, I M. Sheffield, Wiley Moore,
and J. W. Merritt.
The land selected for th’s purpose
must be poor farm lands, with some
good water supply and diversified
ground- which may be partly in
woodlands, but the majority of which
much have been under cultivation.
The secondary object in th : s pro
gram is the retirement from agri
culture of fields which have never
yielded a good crop, but which will
grow good cover for game and non
game birds and animals.
“I
owner who can place a single tract
of four or five thousand acres on
the market for the President's com
mittee to purchase as game refuges
communicate with me and furnish
a map of the county, showing the
location of the property and also a
map showing some of the features
of the land such as streams, springs,
fields, woodlands, lakes and so on”,
said the Commissioner. “Remember
that the land must come under the
classification of submarginal lands
in order to fall into the conserva
tion program.
“I fee) that our refuges should
be so placed throughout the state
that they will be of value to the
asking that every land j national program as well as to our
own program of game management
Since there are already refuges in
the mountains, it is likely that moat
of the new lands will bo purchased
In south and middle Georgia. I do
want to see more refuges in the
mountains, however.”
