around us. And although many of
our homes have been brought into
the shadows by death and other
happenings during the year—and
despite the fact reverses have arisen
j that almost shattered hopes for the

j weight of good for us all. Sufficient
j have been the showers of blessings,
more than mercy drops, to make us
i take a n*w lease on life and lead
j us to pledge oursevles, God and each
other, that we shall surrender our
all to Him. It's well to have your

Thanksgiving within us.
MILK AND FOOD INSPECTION
The city council now has under
consideration for final decision next
Monday an' important ordinance,
that is the law to provide for the
inspection of milk, meats and places
where food is served in the city.
Too much importance cannot be
placed upon the health of the com
munity. The recent epidemic of den
gue fever has been illustrative of
neglect in safe guarding the com
munity health. Had the necessary
precaution been taken to destroy
mosquito breeding places, we feel
sure this epidemic would not have
been quite as severe.
The ordinance that the council
now has under consideration will
provide for the inspection of all
sources of food supplies for the city.
Some of the dairymen and meat deal
ers are sponsoring this legislation.
They ask that the city give them
protection as well as the people who
must consume their products. Milk
is one of the large bacteria produc
ing foods, and unless this import
ant food product is handled under
the most sanitary conditions many
dangerous diseases can be spread
over a community. The same is true
of other foods especially meats. The
ordinance is a wise one and should
have been enacted many years ago.
We frel confident that members of
the council realize the importance
of this law and will place their ap
proval upon il/iexl Monday night.
MILLEDGEVILLE WON PRAISE
PROM THE MOTORCADE
We feel sure that members of the
| Four Capitals Motorcade saw noth
ing more impressive and beautiful
than our two colleges on their trip
from Atlanta to Savannah and re
turn. As the line of cars came into
Milledgeville the students of G. S.
C. W., over thirteen hundred lovely
Georgia girls, gave them a cordial
greeting and then on the G .M. C.
campus the fine group of young men
presented a most impressive sight as
they practically Surrounded the
stately old capitol building.
Milledgeville, Georgia's loveliest
city, has lost none of the charm
of the old south and yet has kept
abreast of the times with modern im
provements and up-td-date-rmnute
business houses. The shaded thorough
fares, the beautiful old homes of the
old south with the modern homes of
a new generation all surrounded by
handsome shrubbery and flowers
imoressed the visitors.
The citizens of Milledgeville who
accompanied the motorcade natural
ly bragged on the fine showing Mil
ledgeville made, but the expressions
of the visitors were the cause for
Mayor Horne and the citizens who
assisted him to swell with pride.
To Mayor Home. Dr. Wells. Mr.
J. L. Sibley, Mr. L. H. Andrews and
Col. Jenkins their host of assistants
must go the highest praise for the
wonderful entertainment given the
visitors last week. Milledgeville al-
i measures up one hundred per
cent and our citizens co-operate en
thusiastically whenever the oppor
tunity comes.

A FRIEND IN NEED
Rev. H. 8. ftmllli
The American Red Cross has been
a friend in need, able to move quick
ly with ample resources to aid the
helpless. Its indispensable ministry
to human suffering has been seen in
wars, famines, floods, fires, earth
quakes. and prstilence. In the pres
ent unemployment situation that af
fects city, village and country the
Red Cross steps in to avert tragedy.
You and 1 every man. woman and
child, by our gifts make the Red
Cross. Without our money it would
be only a name. With our money the
Red Cross can help save men, wo
men. and little children from hunger
and starvation.
More and more must communities
carry the burden of human need in
their midst. A splendid chapter has
been written the past year in the
work of the Red Cross in Milledge-
ville and Baldwin county. The aim
of your local Board has been to see
that careful investigation of cases
be made and that funds be used
wisely.
You ar*e your brother’s keeper.
Lack of time and training make it
hard for you always to direct your
giving wisely through personal con
tact those in need. You can use the
agency of the Red Cross, humanity's
Big Brother.
THE BANKHEAD BILL
Editor Union-Recorder
I am enclosing a clipping from the
Atlanta Journal of August 6th. 1933.
1 dictated this to a stenographer in
Atlanta, in a tew minutes, not more
than 20 minutes, without notes, I
mention this latter fact as an ex
cuse for any error or omission in the
Rl-n. I delivered it in person to my
friend Maj. Cohen of thp Journal,
ami ne thought well enough of it
to give it a very prominent space in
his paper.
I mailed a copy of the paper to
Senator Bankhead of Alabama at
Birmingham several months before
he introduced his bill in Washing
ton. His secretary acknowledge re
ceipt of it
The Bankhead plan, much cussed
and discussed, is doing wonderful
good in this great Southland of ours.
The administration of it has been
difficult, expensive and annoying on
account of its complexities and the
evident mistake of combining it with
the acreage plan.
The acreage rental has been a
source of revenue to farmers, but as
a substitute for that plan, so ex
pensive to administer, requiring the
services of thousands of persons on
county committees and field men
for surveying, I would suggest the
simple plan loaning 15c a pound in
stead of 12c on cotton. Presideut
Roosevelt could make this change
in five minutes with a great saving
to tax payers.
It is of course too late for 1934
but if the 15c loan plan and the
limited baleage plan, four bales to
the plow, and 8 bales to the tractor
on tractorized farms of the West,
could be announced for 1935, by
December 1st and the acreage plan
abandoned the inequities now com
plained of in the Bankhead bill
would be minemized and the South
