Johnny Kytle Killed In Plane.
Comrades of Johnny Kytle, pio¬
neer of air mail trails, who lost
Sunday to the fate he bad dared so
often and died in a crash ur Cand¬
ler Field, ussembledMuudav to pay
him a last tribute at services held
in East Point at i o’clock.
A pall hung about the (lying
field Monday, where lly.-rs and at¬
tendants appeared dazed by the ac¬
cident, the first fatal crash tliere in
five years.
After services in Carmichael’s
chapel in East Point, the body will
be sent to Ocilla, Ga.. the home ol
Selman’s young wife, for burial.
I’lie penchant for stunting tlnut
had made Kytle one of the most
colorlul and popular pilots in the
South Sunday resulted in his Iasi
flight. Kytle crashed a half mile
from the field in a 500 foot power
dive into which the tiny racing
plane he was Hying lei! after a
series of difficult stunts.
For nearly an hour Kytle had
thrilled a large Sunday crowd at
the airport, flying the racing plane
through a series of stunts. Circling
over the east side of the field, Ky
tie “started “simp rolling” tile
speedy plane at a low altitude.
Alter several ol these maneuvers
lie was seen to hell off into a , ( j|
spin.
Coining out of the spin, he ap

cording to several witnesses, and
the ship started to spin tin* other
way. Kytle corrected that, but
the plane hit the ground at a Hor¬
rific speed before lit: had time to
pull it out of the dive.

In our opinion if the editors of

arid publicly critize ami expose the
members of the Georgia legislature,
that body would fall on a plan to
meet the state’s deficit. The Geor¬
gia Press can do something great
for the people if they will, Matiy
a legislator would do Itts best tor
the people if lie knew the press
would tell its readers of his disin¬
terestedness in the state’s affairs.
If (he state has a bigger program
than it can carry on, quit it. The
editors can bring a halt by expos¬
ing the men who continue <0 drag
the state in the dust. It is not the
taxpayers that is to blame. Legisla¬
tors should he made to fear the

A STATEMENT OF FACTS
GAINESVILLE & NORTHWESTERN RAILROAD*
1 be future operation of this railroad depends on the cooperation
of citizens in communities it serves.
I his railroad is essential to the industrial development of your
cominmunity.
It is also essentia! to secure arid retain the lowest possible trails
poration rates when all commodities are considered.
Some citizens favor highway trucks tor hauling tiie high revenue
producing commodities and rely on the railroad to haul their low
revenue producing commodities.
II highway trucks continue to skim the cream off the traffic avail
able to this railroad we do not believe it will be possible to continue to
operate much longer.
\\ ithout railroad lacijities the average cost of handling alt com
modifies will materioJIy increase.
Citizens must either bear this increased cost or stop productiug
commodities that are now hauled Liv the railroad on low freight rates.
Ibis railroad spends large sums for wages and supplies in your
community and puv a substantial part of your taxes.
\\ e urge till citizens to help save Ibis railroad by giving us ill
their business.
