BtLUON OF DOLLARS IN
NEW MONEY IS HUNTED
Government No tv* for $3,600,000.-
OOO Replace Gold. Denominations
Bit.
Approximately three and a half
miles of money, $3,600,000,00 of it,
has been run off the presses of the
bureau of printing and engraving in
Washington, in payment of that sum
in gold turned over to the govern
ment by the federal reserve banks.
The bills arc six Inches long, and
placed end to end would stretch for,
three and one-half miles
The bills are of big denominations'
the smallest being for $10,060, be
cause they will never circulate,
taerely lying in the reserve bank
vaults. There they will remain as
security for gold stocks command
ed under the president’s dollar de
valuation program.
A sheet of a dozen $10,00 bills,
however, is just about the right size,
if doublel a couple of times, to fit
Into a bilUfoId.
Half a sheet, or $60,000 worth,
could be carried -in the vest pocket.
A quarter of a sheet, or $30,000,
could be jammed into any rouge and
powder compact.
Such statistics being pleasant to
conjecture with but hardly likely to
be needed information for most
Americans today treasury officials
admit.
NATES ON FERTILIZER
ARE 0DRERED SLASHED
Redaction of 27 For Coat Made by
Georgia Pnblic Smfrien Conii
The Georgia Public Service Com
mission has ordered a 27 per cent
reduction in the the freight rates o
fertilizer materials effective in
mediately on intra-state shipments.
The fertilizer shipping season is i
full swing now. It opened February
10 and will close March 10.
The commission derided to order
the reduction while the season
under way and without waiting to
complete hearings.
While no estimates have been
made, officials say the reduction
will save farmers thousands of dol
lars annually.
FULL PARDON IS GRANTED
DOG BY GOVERNOR LAFFOON
as Convicted in Knntwcky Canrt
and Sentenced to Dantb.
Governor Laffoon, of Kentucky,
has granted a full pardon to Patsy,
saving the German shepherd dog,
which had been lentenced to death
for sheep killing, from an execution
’s pistol.
The pardon came just as Patsy,
nvicted by a county court jury
was preparing to eat her last meal-
Running over 500 words, and
couched in legal phraseology, the par
don traced Patsy’s “exemplary life”
until she fell into bad company, as
serted that she “has from her humi
liation learned her lesson”, and that
Patsy “from the premtings of her
contrite heart promised to be for
evermore a good dog and shun evil”.
Mrs. James Breathitt, Jr., wife of
state senator, will take Patsy to her
home in Hopkinsville to live a city
life away from the sheep killing
temptations of the country.

JOKE BACKFIRES ON THREE
(By G. N. A.)
Three men who insist their plight
resulted merely from a practical
joke that ‘backfired’, face charges
in Cherokee County Superior Court
of removing 37 pounds of gold from
the farm of F. R. Groover.
Roy Tippen, Bob and Jack Stuman
told the story about town that in
November, 1932, they discovered the
gold on the Groover farm near Cum
in ing Georgia, under several docks
with sueer markings. When warrants
were served they said they thought
the whole story a good joke until
Farmer Groover took them serious
ly. The allegedly mythical treasure
trovs of 37 pounds was valued at
$15,640.
Groover and his counsel howev
insist that the proceedings constitute
no laughing matter, pointing out
that the Groover Farm once wj
the midst of the scene of intensive
gold mining and express belief that
some miner had hidden the nuggets
ard dust under the rock. The three
defendants had the gold cast into
bull : on by a blacksmith, they charge,
but what disposition was made of
the gold bars la not set out it
petition.
