NEWS AT A GLANCE
ABOUT PEOPLE AND
THINGS IN GEORGIA
FOUR POINT PROGRAM POINTING
TOWARD A “NEW ECONOMY
FOR GEORGIA”.
ATLANTA, May 30 (GPS).—Dr. Paul
W. Chapman, clean of the University of
Georgia's agricultural future, in a recent
address before the Atlanta Kiwanis club,
outlined a four-point program pointing
toward a “new economy for Georgia.’’
His proposals were: (1) Increased use of
machinery on Georgia’s farms. (2) In
creased size of farms through consolida
tions of smaller ones. (3) Production of
foodstuffs used by the urban population
of the state. (4) Production of raw mate
rials for growing industries of the state.
Pointing out that Georgia can produce
and sell only 1,000,000 bales of cotton a
year, which, allowing four bales for each
family engaged in cotton production in the
state, yields an annual income of .S2OO
for each of those families, Dr. Chapman
said : “This meager income represents 51
per cent, of the cash income of the peo
ple of Georgia, and we are, therefore,
faced with the necessity of deveoping a
new economy for Georgia as far as agri
culture is concerned.”
. . Odd Beauty : “A train has glamour,’’
said Ctcil B. DeMille, famous motion
picture producer, in the New York Jour
nal and American. “In fact, the only
thing that has more glamour than a
snorting locomotive is a beautiful woman,
and you may quote me as hesitating a
little while before putting the locomo
tive in second place. Trains and engines
seem to get into a person’s blood from
childhood —and to stay there. Maybe it’s
the excitement they suggest of far-away
places. Maybe it’s simply the spectacle
they bring up. Anyway, they fascinate
old and young, famous and unknown
alike.”
Gist Os the News: Plans have been
completed for the fourth annual Georgia
air tour, which begins in Atlanta June
8 and will continue for four days. Al
ready thirty pilots have entereel and at
least twenty more are expected ....
Three Georgia cities with populations
between 25,(MX) anrl 100,000 — Savannah,
Augusta and Macon—showeel a gain dur
ing 1937 of $14,105,289 in the value of
manufactured products as compared with
1935 . . . Fifty thousand tulips, now on
display at the New York World’s fair,
may adorn parks and parkways in At
lanta next season. Atlanta’s councilman,
Ceci H. Hester, just back from New
York, said an appropriation request to
purchase the plants would be filed with
the finance committee.

Georgia Working Girls
Insist On Equal Wages
Georgia business girls who have devel
oped their skill, want the same salaries
which men, holding identical positions,
receive.
This was brought out in the fourteenth
annual conference! of Y.W.C.A. Georgia
Business Girls held at Camp Highland.
A survey of 403 women, whose ages
range from 24 to 35 years, showed that
the average salary is $99, while thirty
one receive less than SSO a month, and
thirty-one receive $l5O and over. There
w< re 258 of these girls who have depend
ents ; 137 are affected by the wage-hour
bill and 288 are covered by social se
curity.
In the group, 210 have had no salary
change, 177 have had salary raises and
sixteen have had cuts. The professions
registered included machine operator,
telephone operator, nurse, teacher, beau
tician, typist, utility, insurance, govern
ment, finance and bookkeeping.
It was said a single man’s expenses ar?
more than a single girl’s, because his en
tertainment bill is higher. But on thi
other hand, a working girl’s clothes cosi
more, plus beauty treatments, therefore
her purse should be larger.
CHI RUH OF GOD OPENS SUNDAY
The new Church of God will be opened
for services Sunday morning at 10 o’clock.
Everybody is requested to meet at the

HUGE PEANUT PLANT
TO RISE IN GEORGIA
SIOO,OOO PLANT WILL BE ERECTED
BETWEEN MONTEZUMA AND
OGLETHORPE.
MONTEZUMA. Ga., May 30 (GPS).
—A new $100,(XX) ptanut-shelling plant
soon will he erected in Macon county,
between Montezuma and Oglethorpe.
Present plans for the proposed plant call
for a capacity of 0,000 tons of peanuts
annually, with possibiity of later ex
pansion.
The plant will be erected by the Kro
ger Grocery & Baking company. It was
dedicated last week by upwards of 2,000
farmers, businessmen and state officials,
including Gov. Rivers, at a celebration
and barbecue sponsored by the Monte
zuma Kiwanis club.
Details of the new industry, which is
expected to consume between $300,000
and $400,000 worth of peanuts grown in
this area, center of what has been called
“the finest peanut-producing section in
the world.” were outlined by Albert II
Morrill, president of the Kroger company.
He said the farmer’s greatest difficulty
is the marketing problem, and added "we
want to work with you in solving that
problem.
A cordial welcome awaits all progres
sivo new industries locating in Georgia,
but the most sincere welcomes will be
those greeting new industries which
maintain research laboratories and endea
vor to find new uses and new mark, ts
for Georgia products, Gov. Rivers said
in dedicating the peanut-shelling plant.
Lyerly F. F. A.
Demonstration
The Future Farmer demonstrations are
really an experiment, conducted in our
home community, to check results of ex
periment stations, and show the quantity
of Arcadian nitrate it is profitable to
use on small grain, such as oats, barley
and wheat. Results in other communities
in the state show the 8-year average yield
of oats, top dressed with different
amounts of nitrate of soda as follows:
"The yield with no nitrogen, and with
IGO, 200 and 300 pounds of nitrate of
soda have been 9.8, 19.7, 31.6, and 41.2
bushels, respectively. It wil be notid
that each 100 pounds of nitrate has pro
duced about ten bushels.
Ihe demonstration plot, under the
upervision of the Lyerly F.F.A., shows
a marked difference where different
amounts of nitrate of soda were used.
We believe that there will be at least
ten bushels of wheat increase pit- 100
pounds of nitrate used. Results of the
lemonstration will be published later.

COUNTIES GET HALF
W. AND A. RENTALS
A discount payment of $100,230. ob
tained recently by the state from the
Reconstruction Finance corporation in
disposal of Western & Atlantic rental
warrants, must lie divided between the
state tleemosynary institutions and the
counties, Attorney-General Ellis Arnall
ruled.
In a letter to Gov. E. D. Rivers the
attorney-general said the law authorizing
discount of the rentals requires all pro
ceeds to be distributed in shares. ■
He listed these as 37 per cent, to state
welfare department for construction and
repair of institutions ; 3 per cent, to the
department of education for Cave Springs
School for the Deaf; 10 per cent, to the
health department for the state tubercu
lar hospital at Alto and 50 per cent,
divided equally among the 159 counties.
Federal Treasury Deficit
Crosses $3,000,000,000 Mark
The federal deficit crossed $3,000,000.-
000 this week with a month and a half
of the fis'-al year remaining.
However, officials did not expect the
year-end shortage June 30 to reach the
$4,000,000,000 estimated in the budget
because receipts to date of $4,908,867.-
056 were somewhat higher than expect
ed, and expenditures totaling $7,912,202.
156 were lagging behind forecasts.
The deficit, however, will be more than
double last year’s. At this time a year
ago, the excess of expenditures over re
ceipts was $1,134,220,550, compared with
$3,003,335,099 now.
The federal debt, which sets a new rec
ord almost daily, was at a peak of $40.-
203,666.919, or about $2,800,000.000
more than a year ago.
SUSAN B. ANTHONY.
One hundred and nineteen years ago a
Quaker baby was born, known later as
Susan B. Anthony. This spring her birth
day was celebrated in hundreds of pro
grams in honor of the great things she
accomplished while here —
When she first became interested in
women's rights :
A man could give away his wife’s chil
dren. even an unborn child.
No married woman had a legal right
to any money she earned.
N<> k woman unaccompanied by a man
was admitted to a restaurant or hotel.
No married woman could own any
thing.
No married woman could collect dam
ages to her person or reputation.
Only one obscure college admitted
women.
No woman in the world could vote or
hold office.
More than any other woman in our
history, Susan B. Anthony contributed to
the changing of all that. Her followers
pay her no unjust tribute when they
say that “she changed the mind of a
nation.”
Some men claim women were the cause
of repealing our Eighteenth amenrment.
If so, we are surely being punished by
the sight of our children draggl'd to
death by drunken auto drivers, dragged
into sin and early death by the combina
tion of food and alcohol put in reach of
the youngest child who wishes to reach
his hand through a car window, accept
what’s ordered for the crowd by the
driver.
So, let the leaders of the churches re
alize, as always, God's people must lead
the nation back to righteousness. Take
heed lest the words. “In as much as ye
did it unto the least of these, ye did it
unto me,” be a’ terrible sentence on our
sin of wilful neglect.—M.l.M.
AMOY INCIDENT.
The landing of American sailors in the
international area on the island of Ku
langsu in the harbor of Amoy, China, to
co-operate with British and French na
val forces, following occupation of the
settlement by 150 Japanese troops, is in
terpreted as a warning to Japan not to
molest the International Settlement at
Shanghai. Already the Japanese have
made representations to the foreign pow
ers requesting enlarged rights there. Fol
lowing the landing of sailors of the three
powers, the Japanese force at Amoy was:
substantially reduced. The issues involv
ed are not yet disposed of and a new in
cident may occur at any time.
NICARAGUA.
The Good-Neighbor policy recently
went into action with Nicaragua when
the presidents of the two countries sign
ed a five-point program of financial, com
mercial and military assistance, including
nearly $2,500,000 in credit through the
Export-Import bank, of Washington. Nic
aragua is to encourage the investment
of 'American capital in technical knowl
edge and provide adequate dollar exchange
to holders of its customs bonds of 1918.
TRADE.
Stressing the inter-dependence of na
tions in today’s world. Francis B. Sayre,
assistant secretary of state, recently de
clared that stable and lasting world peace
can he built only upon a world trade un
hampered by exessive barriers and re
strictions. He asserted that rhe drive to

unchecked, leads surely and inevitably to
war,
Man “Steals” Hy
Mistake; Pays For It
GAINESVILLE. Absence makes
the heart grow fonder, but absent-mind
edness may wreck havoc with one's
pocketbook. Or so Rafe Banks, a hank
er of Gainesville, thinks.
It happened that Banks, with his
mind on more important matters, hop
ped into his parked car and drove to a
service station. It was only after he
had had the auto completely serviced
that he realized he had done a very
costly favor for someone who owned a
car exactly like his! He had been driv
ing the wrong vehicle!
Resigned to his fate, the absent-mind
ed banker returned the “stolen” car,
explained his mistake to a policeman,
got into his own car and drove away.
Fight Postponed

Last Saturday night's fight card was

WEATHER TRICKS FIREMEN
MARICOPA. Cal. Disgusted by
chasing down one false alarm after an
other on rainy nights, local firemen are
overhauling Maricopa’s fire alarm sys

circuited repeatedly, setting off the alarm
in the fire house each time.
EXPORTS.
During the first three months of this
year, Latin-America continued to rank
second to Europe as the largest market
for American exports. Extension of for
eign armaments and increased industrial
activity caused manufactured products to
account ufor three-fifths of our foreign
sales. It is worth noting that exports of
household refrigerators, radio apparatus,
aircraft and industrial machinery exceed
the year 1929, while exports of rubber
and textile manufactures and automobiles
are below the volume for that. year. Iron
and steel scrap exports have been greatly
increased. Agricultural exports continue
to decline, amounting to less than a
fourth of the value of all exports.

HAPPENINGS.
MAX FOWLER KILLED
SUNDAY MORNING IN
AUTOMOBILE WRECK
ACCIDENT OCCURRED AT MOR-
GAN’S STORE. SEVEN MILES
EAST OF SUMMERVILLE.
An automobile accident early Sunday
morning brought death to one of Sum
merville’s most popular young men and
serious injuries to another.
Julius Max Fowler, 24-year-old son of
Mr. and Mrs. Charles S. Fowler, of this
place, met instant death when, it is be
lieved. a tire blew out on the Rome road
just below Morgan's store, about seven
miles east of here, and apparently caus
ed the driver to lose control of the car,
which crashed into a gasoline pump m
front of Morgan's store, after which it
turmd over and caught fire.
Persons reaching the scene immediately
after the crash were unable to rescue
young Fowler’s body and it was burned
beyond recognition. The body was brought
to the Paul Weems Funeral home and
prepared for burial, the funeral being
field at the First Baptist church Monday
afternoon at 3 o clock, conducted by the
Revs. J. C. Jackson. G. G. Ramsey and
J. G. Kirckhoff. Interment was in the
Summerville cemetery, with Paul Weems
Funeral home in charge of arrange
ments. All stores in town closed Monday
afternoon for the funeral.
Mr. Fowler is survived by his parents,
two sisters, Mrs. Glenn Pless. Miss Mil
dred Fowler, and a brother, diaries
Fowler. Jr., all of this place.
Alvin (“Runt”) Hise, whf> was riding
with young Fowler, escaped death by
burning by jumping or being thrown out
of the car through a door which came
open as the automobile overturned. He
received a severe leg injury and was
rushed to the Trion hospital, where, it
is reported, he is improving and. barring
complications, is expected to -recover.
The two young men, both popular mem
bers of Summerville’s younger set. were
believed to be returning from a brief trip
to Rome. It is reported that parties liv
ing near the scene of the accident heard
a tire l>lp"~ out, and noticed the car ca
rein and dash across the road into the
gasoline pump in front of P. A. Morgan's
store. When the vehicle struck the pump
it made a long leap and turned over,
flames immediate! enveloping the wreck.
The fire was extinguished by the driver
of a Greyhound bus which came along a
few moments after the wreck. The car
was a practically new Ford V-8. It was
a complete loss, being damaged beyond re
pair, it is said.
We wish to thank with all our hearts
our friends for their many expressions of
sympathy to us in our grief over the
tragic death of our beloved son and bro
ther. Max. We thank our friends and
neighbors who brought food to sustain
our bodies, the doctors who ministered
unto us, the many friends who called,
and the ones who offered ears. We ap
preciate the kind co-operation of the of
ficers of Trion and Summerville. The
comforting words of the ministers, the
sweet music of the choir, the special
quartet, and pianist, and the many beau
tiful floral offerings were sweet and
deeply appreciated tributes to the mem
ory of our dear Max.
