GEORGIA, MAY 2 l Atlanta, Ga.—In his weekly dress urging ratification of Democratic party amendments, Governor Ii. D. Rivers definitely linked file Tal mnlge opposition with the Repub licti!) party Georgia and de¬ dared that “giving the people the truth ’ is ll e best combat way to this compaiign of deliberate mis representation He then enumerated some o(*t'ie ways in waich he said * the o p position is trying to mi-dead tha people” and explained what the various amendments will accom plish. 'l’lie Governor linked the Tnl madge apposition with the Re¬ publicans by declaring that the wording of a Republican resolution attacking the amendments is exactly similar to the huigue used in a political publication, familial as the organ of the last idminis. tration, there c m be no doubt that in drafting th s resolution tiieStatc Republican committee was sorting with their cohorts who, in the last Campaign, claimed to be Democrats, but who the people of Georgiti Urn- -v were not Demo¬ crats.” The Republicans, he declared, “joined liana- vvitu those renegade Democrats.” Governor Rivers spoke before a neeting attended by a large major¬ ity of members of the legislature who had come to Atlanta at their tvvti expense to perfect plans for carrying on the campaign for the imeudnientft, l’he address was broadcast over YVSB and YVATL, ts will other speeches by the lover nor every Saturday night J„„, 5',,, , VV.,ck E»»i r n Standard Time.

By 1933, however, production nad shrunk to less tlian 150 million gallons. Records of 1934 show that we are back to a consumption of nearly ISO million gallons of ice¬ cream. v. Children’s Parties Increase If ice-cream is a barometer of economic conditions, then the number of children’s parties—at which much of this ice-cream is consumed—might also be taken as & barometer Certainly in pros¬ perous times we can afford to do more for our children. Therefore, while tiny envelopes are flying through the mails announcing birthday parties, spring parties, Raster parties—parties of every description it is well to consider now ideas in food, games and decorations for these most delight ful occasions. For there is very definite vogue in children’s parties, just as there is in any other parties. See to it that you don’t give a 193.5 party in this bright new 1936! if it 33 a party, use cellophane, green white 10 cover your tablecloth it makes a gleaming table set¬ use pink ribbon where pieces of cellophane join cellophane your candle-holders, also 1 and tie pink rib¬ bows at the base.
