Senate Rejects Economy Measure;
Gl’s Apply for War Risk Rebates

BRITISH LOAN:
True to Form
Even before the talks got .fully
underway, the trend of the dis¬
cussion concerning British-Ameri
can finance deals was becoming
familiarly clear.
THE PROBLEM was Britain’s
current financial crisis. The hope
rested with U. S. procedure as it
affects assistance. That the U.S.
was thoroughly under the spell of
British need and persuasion was
shown in the statement that this
government is hospitable to a pro¬
posal to relax terms of the British
loan pact.
Under the current preliminary
proposal, the U. S. would grant
Britain permission to discriminate
temporarily against American
goods. Under the British loan pact,
Britain got 3.75 billion dollars from
the United States in return for a
promise to treat .American exports
the same as those from British em¬
pire countries and Europe.
Now, the British want that re¬
quirement knocked out. Here’s how
the British plan would work:
BRITAIN could, for instanoe, re¬
fuse to license British buyers who
want to buy American goods, but
it could give “open licenses” to
Britishers who, for example, want¬
ed to import Italian goods. Since
the Italian imports could be pur¬
chased with sterling, this would
save Britain dollars.
Thus, with the monetary talks
hardly underway, the British are
asking a double burden of the
American taxpayer—money from
the taxpayer to solve Britain’s eco¬
nomic problem while at the same
time setting up what amounts to a
boycott of American imports which
will further cost the American tax¬
payer if he happens to be one of
the businessmen affected by the
ruling.
And, as the pattern seems to be,
officials were reported favorable
to the British proposal and — symp¬
tomatically, too—were planning to
by-pass congress in implementing
that approval.
WATCHMAKING:
Pioneered in U. S.
Many Americans believe preci¬
sion watchmaking is an exclusively
Swiss craft. Hence the small but
lusty U.S. jeweled watch industry
delights in pointing out that basic
production methods now used by
the Swiss were developed here a
century ago, and that this “Amer¬
ican system” was adopted by the
Swiss about 1875.
Two years ago American crafts¬
men proved they hadn’t.lost their
ingenuity. An Elgin, ill., watch
manufacturer introduced a rust
proof, acid-proof “durapower”
mainspring which was called the
most revolutionary advance in
watchmaking since introduction of
jeweled bearings 200 years ago.
Now by way of improving on
perfection, the same factory an¬
nounces its technicians have learned
how to squeeze every last ounce
of power out of the wonder-alloy
mainspring.
Their method was to eliminate
the conventional annealed arbor
end of the spring, which had always
been dead, unproductive weight.
By pre-forming the arbor end, pos¬
sible only with the new alloy, they
have put the entire length of the
spring to work. The result: A long¬
er run of the watch between wind¬
ings, hence a boon to lazy and for¬
getful thumbs and forefingers!
DIVIDEND:
Rebate for Gl's
The federal government, in one
of the most amazingly simple
forms ever to come out of Washing¬
ton, was receiving applications
from World War II veterans for
rebates on GI insurance premiums.
REJOICING over the windfall,
surprised and delighted with the
simple application form, veterans
were flooding the mails with their
application cards.
“It’s like finding money on the
street,” one veteran declared.
The dividend payments from na¬
tional life insurance surplus funds
are to be made to persons who hold
or have held these policies. The
average payment is estimated at
$175. To be eligible for a rebate,
the veteran must have had his
service life insurance in force at
least 90 days. The dividend would
not be issued on any service life
insurance issued after December
31, 1947.

Touched Off Probe
Cedric Worth, special assistant
to Navy Undersecretary D. A,
Kimball, is shown as he ap¬
peared before the house com¬
mittee investigating the B-36
bomber program. It was Worth
who touched off the probe. He
admitted writing the document
containing serious charges
against Defense Secretary
Johnson and former air force
secretary Symington.
SPENDING:
Slash Rejected
The United States senate stood
firm in support of President Tru¬
man’s estimate of the financial
needs of the nation for the next
fiscal year.
A move to force the President tc
slash federal spending to a level
5 to 10 per cent below his advance
estimates was defeated. But the
margin was only three votes.
The economy amendment, had it
carried, would have required the
President to hold spending for the
current fiscal year some two billion
to four billion dollars below the
estimates he made last January.
FOES of the proposed economy
asserted it amounted to passing
the economy buck to the President.
Supporters of the amendment an¬
swered that the President was in
better position than anyone else to
determine where to cut.
After the decision on this issue,
the senate passed by a voice vote
a 14.80 billion dollar appropriation
bill to pay for national defen#e—
the cost of the army, navy and air
force. This was 500 million less,
however, than President Truman
Vio4 jack " pH
IN OPPOSING the economy
rider, Sen. Scott Lucas, majority
floor leader, said the amendment
was a “political gesture,” an at¬
tempt to tell the President to do
what congress lacked the courage
to do. He asked if economy sup¬
porters would “impeach him” if
Mr. Truman failed to save as much
as ordered.
On the contrary, contended Sen¬
ator McClellan of Arkansas, “it is
sound legislation necessary in the
public welfare, and failure to bal¬
ance the budget or hold the deficit
to the minimum this amendment
makes possible may well prove to
be a stupid and dangerous blunder.”
TELEVISION:
Color Must Wait
For those who want color in
television, there were four more!
years of waiting.
That was the expressed convic- j
tion of a television manufacturer, '
Benjamin Abrams. He said that
while color television had been I
■demonstrated successfully, “it still !
is in the laborgtory stage and it will I
be years before it is available foi
the general public.” He then es¬
timated the waiting time as foul
years.
Abrams said that at the presenl
stage of development of color tele¬
vision, he did not believe manufac¬
turers could turn out adapters foi
less than $300 to $500. And he esti¬
mated a set built especially' foi
color would cost $1,000. :
He declared present sets would
not become obsolete even with the
advent of color. But he said wide¬
spread interest aroused by the PCC
exploration of color television was
causing some prospective custom¬
ers to postpone buying sets.
Abrams took issue with charges
that manufacturers are deliberate¬
ly holding back color video. He de¬
clared it would be in the manu¬
facturers’ own interest to bring out
color sets quickly if they could
produce them at prices within
range of the general public.
Summing up he said: "You can’t
push a button and have color tele¬
vision appear over night.”
ed hundred; of thousands of bills
have been passed.
Yard officials said the counter¬
feit ring’s members may include
both international criminals and
former Mayfair society playboys
“now living in luxury in the south
of France.”
More than $120,000 worth of
forged U. S. dollar bills were re¬
covered in little more than a week.
Much interest is being manifested
In the city-wide mayoralty election
which takes place in Atlanta Wed¬
nesday, September 7. The present in¬
cumbent, Mayor William B. Harts
field, will encounter opposition for
the office in the persons of Joe Sa¬
lem, Charlie Brown, and William
Todd. Candidates for the offices of
aldermen, councilmen and the board
of education are to be voted In at
the same time.
Recommendations for $6,425,000 in
buildings and repairs at the State
hospital at Milledgeville recently
were termed conservative. State
Welfare Director Alan Kemper says
he thinks “Dr. Peacock is conserva¬
tive in his recommendation. He
needs everything he has asked for."
Dr. T. G. Peacock, superintendent of
the Giant Medical institution for the
insane, will “officially” present his
recommendation to Kemper next
week It will be included in the hos¬ i
pital head’s annual report. !
Work began last week the res¬ i
on |
toration of the old Van Wert !
Church, historic landmark and at
one time the center of the religious
life of the entire Rockmart section.
This church, which was the first
charge of the late Sam Jones, one of
America’s greatest evangelists, was
built in 1846 and was the parent
church of the Van Wert Circuit,
composed of churches in Polk. Paul¬
ding, Floyd, and Bartow counties.
The site for a new state farmers
market was in the hands of Agricul¬
ture Commissioner Tom Linder re¬
cently after a visit at Columbus in
which he turned down two locations
offered by the city without charge.
Linder said he disliked a 20-acre
tract near Victory drive to Fort
Eenning because it would be “bur¬
ied.” He rejected a second offer,
and then he would like to see the
present farmers market site expand¬
ed with a part of a $250,000 appro¬
priation for state markets provided
by the last legislature.
A total of $150,849.28 was expend¬
ed in Brooks County for welfare
benefits from July 1, 1948, to June
30, 1949, according to the annual re¬
port made by Mrs. Ethel S. Upson,
director of the Brooks County De¬
partment of Public Welfare at Quit
man.
The Mayfield Methodist Church,
which has been under construction
for several months, is now ready for
use and the first service will he
held in a few weeks.
Plans were made for the operation
of the concessions and the recrea¬
tional building at the Veterans Me¬
morial State Park located at Lake
Blackshear between Cordele and
Americus, at a meeting of leaders of
Veterans of Foreign Wars, held in
Americus.
County Agricultural Agent L. R.
Payne, who has served the Mont¬
gomery county office at Mount Ver¬
non for nearly four years, has been
transferred to the same position in
Wayne County, and will leave with
his family for that point in a few
days.
Georgia workers last year receiv¬
ed approximately $1,903,000,000 in
wages and salaries, according to fig¬
ures released recently by the region¬
al office of the U. S. Department of
Commerce in Atlanta. This amount,
the report showed, was an increase
of nearly $1,000,000,000 over wages
and salaries paid in the state in
1942.
A bond election in the amount of
$225,000 with which to improve the
school facilities of Monroe County
schools, has been called for Sept.
20 at Forsyth. Plans are to buy 13
acres of land adjacent to the Mary
Persons High School property and
the erection of a school building con¬
taining 14 classrooms and a lunch¬
room. A modern gymnasium will be
Installed in the present high school
building. -
As a part of the over all plan in
the Allatoona reservoir area, a large
number of graves of former inhabi¬
tants, long since buried, are now be¬
ing removed to specially selected
burial spots, says M. L. Fleetwood,
of Cartersville, in the Atlanta Jour¬
nal. Among those now being removed
are the bodies of Col. Mark A. Coop¬
er, his wife and their seven chil¬
dren. Some of the bodies were bur¬
led in the family lot at Etowah, six
miles up the river, and now near the
giant Allatoona dam. In removing
the Cooper bodies, the contractors
found three of these bodies had been
buried after being encased in cast
iron caskets. This “find” has created
amazement locally, since such facts
about the Cooper burials had never
been passed down in the family tra¬
dition, although many other historic
facts are known about the remark¬
able family headed by Col. Cooper.
U. S. engineer, under whose juris¬
diction the bodies are being remov¬
ed, purchased a lot in the Carters¬
ville cemetery, and there all the
of the Cooper family are be¬
ing buried.
A flower show school has been set
for Sept. 19-21 and Sept. 26-28 at the
City Auditorium in Macon. The
schedule will include Courses 1 and
Mrs. J. M. Greene, Jr., of Orange¬
burg, S. C., will instruct the classes
flower arrangements and Mrs.
Walker of Spartanburg, S. C.,
instruct on Horticulture and
Show practice.
