THE UNION-RE CO EPEE. MILUPGEVIUJ. GA-. MAECH 5. 19M Review of 0a* News In Brief (By The Associated Press) not the new Marion Allen of MilledgcviUe, Georgia i Roosevelt Campaign Man ager '.ate- last week denied in a statement at Atlanta headquarters that the New Deal was responsible lor the state's present financial situ ation. Such a charge had been made bv Governor Eugene Talmadge. arch new deal critic within the Demo cratic party. Talmadge had said L situation was “deliberate* brought about by the New Deal to stop Talmadge from campaigning. -As a matter of fact", said Allen. -The Federal Government has lit eral/ poured millions of dollars into the state in order not only to help finance our state government, but to relieve the unfortunates among the masses of our people.** Earlier in the week. Allen had critisized the “moneyed interests** which clamored for President Roose velt to save the country from the depression in 1933 but which have since “turned against their benefac tor." “On their knees a few rich men begged Roosevelt to bring them relief when he was inaugurated in 1933," said the Milledgeville attor ney. “Now those same few are fight ing against the one person who saved the United States from utter ruin." Allen spoke at the first of a series of luncheons given at Atlanta by the friends of Roosevelt Club. The March meeting is scheduled to lie held at Warm Springs with the Fourth Congressional District Wo men as hostesses. Mrs. Henry West c,f Florida is to address the April, meeting and Caroline O'Day. Cor.-1 qrosswoman-at-lnrgb from New J York and a former Georgian, and Lucy Cobb, a student, are sche duled to speak at the May meet ing. BARRON HITS THE LINE— Marion Smith, chairman of the Board of Regents of the University system was was removed late last last week by Governor Eugene Tal- madge and David T. (Red) Barron, one-time Georgia Tech star and now a college president, was named to succeed him. The only reason stated by Talmadge was that Smith was serving at his pleasure, but all ob servers looked behind the scenes and remembered that Smith was at torney for George B. Hamilton, recently ousted State Treasurer, and also for the Fulton National Bank, which earlier last week had refused to cash a check on state funds written by J. B. (Tobc) Dan iel. State Treasurer appointed to succeed Ham: ton. The bank said it wanted to wait and see who was the legal treasurer. Smith was the thirteenth official removed by Talmadge since the red-iuspendered executive has been in dYice. —and named some new ones. Those designated, with the assertion that others would probably follow, were the Milledgeville Banking Company and Milledgeville Exchange Bank, both of Milledgeville; The National City Bank of Rome; The Merchants and Citizens Bank of McRae; Mon roe County Bank, Forsyth; Citizens Bank cf Gainesville, and The Bank of Oglethorpe at Oglethorpe. The Governor ordered that county tax collectors deposit their state taxes in the depository nearest them. TOBACCO CALL— A call f<> r a mass meeting of Georgia tobacco growers to discuss crop control was issued late last week by the Lanier County Board of Trade at Lakeland. Secretary Lon Burton was instructed to contact growers and arrange details for the meeting. The Board's resolution said it was vital that the state adopt some plan and cooperate with other states in controlling production. A meeting to work out a plan in Washington last week collapsed when it was learned there was probably no possibility df an extra session of the Georgia legislature to consider the matter. Other ctmtrl- buting factors were also blamed for the meeting's failure to adopt a plan. BOB WHITE GETS RESPITE— Georgia hunters were greasing their trusty guns this week and looking forward to next fall, for the hunting season ended late last week. The largest carryover of game in a decade was expected, due to the bad weather which prevailed this winter. Experts declared next season’s hunting should be the best in years, and the season just closed was somewhat of a record breaker, itself, in the amount of game avail able. Although the number of li censes sold for the 1935-38 season had not yet been complied by Com missioner Zach Cravey. it was be lieved they would surpass the re cord of 100.000 sold in 1934-35.
