NEWSPAPER ADS GET
CANDIDATE’S OKAY
Two candidates this week declared their
sympathy with a resolution passed by
Georgia editors that it is considered an
“unfriendly” gesture toward newspapers
to use other advertising media and send
requests for “free publicity” to the news
papers.
Attorney-General Ellis Arnall, who has
declared himself for re-eleetion to his
present office, and Agricultural Commis
sioner Columbus Roberts, who has an
nounced his candidacy for governor, both
stated they were in full accord with the
resolution.
Commissioner Roberts declared in n
letter to Hon. Roy McGinty, presides! of
the Georgia Press association, “It is my
purpose to place ads in the newspapers
during my campaign for governor, as I
believe that this will enable me to reach
a majority of the voters.”
Attorney-General Arnall stated : “I be
lieve the newspapers, as they are read
and re-read in the homes of Georgia cit*
zens, furnish an ideal means for the can
didate to tell his full and complete mes
sage to the people in a manner which will
enable them to meet issues fairly and
without resort to prejudice. I certainly in
tend that the lion’s share of my available
campaign funds go to the press for paid
political advertising.”
The News has this week endorsed the
resolution of the Georgia Press associa
tion, as follows: “We join with all Geor
gia newspapers in considering it an un
friendly act on the part of candidates for
public office in Georgia to use other paid
advertising media to the exclusion of
newspapers, and at the same time to re
quest free publicity from newspapers.”

Pipeline Construction To
Lower Gasoline Prices
Construction of a pipeline through
Georgia from Port St. Joe, Fla., to Chat
tanooga., Tenn., to serve the oil industry
will result in lower prices for gasoline
and in more efficient service to the pub
lic, officials, of the Southeastern Pipeline
company claim.
The new pipeline will not affect the
railroads to any considerable extent. Of
ficials of the eonupany pointed out that
the oil companies owned almost all of
the nation's 160,000 tank cars, and that
it was unthinkable that -they would aban
don such an investment.
“Two mis-statements have been made
quite frequetnly by those who are distrib
uting propaganda against construction <>■
the pipeline,” stated A. Stere Clay, presi
dent of the company, a Georgia enter
prise. “One is that it will take gasoline
trade away from Savannah, our Georgia
port The other is that the pipeline con
stitutes a fire and explosion hazard. Both
statements are wholly false and ridic
ulous.
“As to the first, there are many oil
companies operating through Savannah
that do not operate in the pipeline terri
tory at all. Indeed, the bulk of Savannah
petroleum receipts go into other areas
altogether.
“As to the second, the stories that the
pipeline causes fires and that explosions
are frequent is wholly fantasy. There is
no way in which a pipe conveying gaso
line could cause a fire, because you can
not have a fire without air. Carburetors
are placed on automobiles in order to pro
duce an explosive mixture. Since there
Will be no air in this pipeline, it will be
chemically impossible to have an explo
sion.
"There has never been an explosion in
a gasoline pipeline. Indeed, natural gas is
far more explosive, and no such mishap
has occurred on the pipelines serving this
product in Georgia. These fantastic as
sertions were not made when construc-

tion began on the natural gas line extend
ing across Georgia under highways, cross
road's and railroads.”
Pipelines are in use for transporting
petroleum produets in almost all states.
They are the most efficient and economi
cal method of transporting this product.
Under present conditions, with the aver
age per capita consumption of petroleum
in the United States standing at nine bar
rels, it is necessary for the oil industry to
use every available means of transporta
tion to the demand and reduce the
price to the public.
The average American family uses 1,-
700 gallons of oil >a year, the greatest
consumption in the world. To keep the
autos of the country moving, the oil in
dustry employs 1,006,052 people, accord
ing to 1937 figures. To transport the
products, the oil industry itself owns
150,000 tank ears, 400 tank ships. 1,500
barges and other vessels and 97,000 miles
of pipeline. It requires all these facilities
to meet America's demand for the prod
uct.
If Georgia is hostile to the construc
tion of pipelines, it can never hope for a
test of its oil possibilities it was stressed
by oil engineers.
“There are indications that Georgia
may contain oil fields, but no tests have
yet been made,” said B. W. Winters, head
of the company’s engineering staff. “If
landowners take the stand that they do
not want pipelines in this state, they can
not expect the oil producers to come into
Georgia and spend thousands and even
millions of dollars in finding out whether
there are oil producing localities.
“Actually, of course. Georgians wel
come the new, more efficient and economi
cal method of handling oil products and
want the lower gasoline prides that will
follow. Georgia doesn’t want to be behind
other states in developing more stream
lined ond efficient methods of transpor
tation.” •

NEWS FOR THE
HOME-MAKER
(By Mildred Henry, County Home Dem
onstration Agent.)
HOME GARDENS GOR GEORGIA
FAMILIES.
Surplus vegetables from home gardens
helped to bring the total products canned
or otherwise preserved by Georgia farm
families following extension service recom
mendations to more than one million dol
lars during 1939.
In planning the home garden for this
year, the fact might be kept in mind that
the garden can be made more than a con
venience to the home-maker. It can be
made a source of fresh vegetables and also
food's for Canning, storage, drying and for
freezer,locker storage, requiring no cash
outlay.
A number of things will go to deter
mine the size of the garden and the kinds
of foods to be planted. Where the longer
growing seasons permit a succession of
crops, smaller gardens may be planted
than where larger canned and stored sup
plies are necessary ito round out the year’s
food supply.
The number of persons in the family
and their likes and dislikes will determine
whether a garden should be large or
small.
Tables have been worked out giving the
pounds or bushels of each big division of
vegetables—potatoes, beans, leafy greens,
tomatoes, and others—needed for each
person or for a Balmily of five. This and
other information which will help the
family to do the necessary figuring and
to draw plans for the garden is included
in extension service publications.
They are circular No. 280, "Hints for
Georgia Gardeners,” circular No. 278,
“Fruits for Home Orchards,” and mimeo
graphed material relating to home gar
dening work, and may be secured at the
home demonstration agent's office or by
writing directly to the agricultural ex
tension service in Athens.
Other (points to consider in beginning
the garden work are:
Plan to grow-one or more vegetables
not ordinarily grown, such as asparagus,
broccoli, table varieties of soybeans, leeks,
and savory herbs.
Remember the green vegetables which
will grow quickly in the early season —
such as lettuce, endive, Chinese cabbage,
spinach, and other salad plants, radishes
for color and crisp texture, delicate young
onions, and plan bo plant plenty of to
matoes.
Include in the garden some of the small
fruits —berries and grapes particularly.
Fruit trees take several years to come into
bearing, but the vegetable garden needs
to be supplemented by a fruit garden. It
is a good plan, therefore, to set out a few
fruit trees for the future and until they
have reached bearing stage, make use of
strawberries and other small fruits which
can be planted with little expense and
come into bearing quickly.
This year as an incentive to Georgia
farm families for more and lietter year
round gardens, in co-operation with the
AAA programi payment of $1.50 per gar
den may be received under the following
provisions,
1. There must be at least one-fourth
acre (excluding sweet potatoes) of garden
for each family on the farm.
2. The garden (excluding potatoes)
shall be planted in one piece of ground
and must be devoted to vegetables thru
out the year. A minimum of ten different
vegetables must lie produced. Roasting
ear corn, crowder or field peas, tomatoes
and sweet potato, even though grown out
side the garden plot, may be included in
the ten different vegetables required. Two
or more families on the same farm may
combine their gardens into a common
area and receive payment for one garden.
Suggested basic vegetables include sweet
potatoes, Irish potatoes, collards, turnip
greens, rutabagas, snapbeans, turnips,
crowder or field peas, lima beans, cab
bage, tomatoes, onions, okra, radishes,
carrots and lettuce.
3. Soil must be prepared properly and
fertilized and must be kept reasonably
cultivated for average production thruout
the year.
4. An effort must be made to control
diseases and insects.
5. Adequate protection from live stock
must be provided, however, no fencing is
required.

ABOUT STATE EVENTS
(By Gilreath Press Syndicate.)
ATLANTA, March 6. —How much
money has Unele >Sam turned loose in
Georgia since the federal spending pro
gram liegan in 1933? That’s a question
that has been asked many times over and
one that nearly everybody would like an
swered. Here's the answer: $755,466,809.
Os the total, $497,268,309 was in non
repayable federal grants, payments and
expenditures, and $258,198,500 was in
repayable loans. The figures are from the
various federal agencies operating in
Georgia and cover the period from the
beginning of the program in 1933 through
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1939, ac
cording to Francis Shurling, state direc
tor of the office of government reports.
Broken down by years the non-repay
able grants, etc., and repayable loans, re
spectively, are : 1933 —$23,013,204 and
$14,530,763; 1934—575,685,202 and $61,-
005,400; 1935—580,612,326 and $69,302,-
857; 1936—582,175,278 and $16,309,127;
1937—570,532,807 and $17,009,977; 1938
—559,863,659 and $35,326,612; 1939
$105,385,833 and $44,713,764.
The 1939 figure, as can be seen by the
comparison, represents the largest yearly
allotment to this state since the New
Deal program began. Largest expenditure
by a single federal agency in Georgia dur
ing the last fiscal year was the agricultur
al adjustment administration which spent
$31,884,695. The works projects adminis
tration expended $30,146,837. More than
$47,000,000 was used by seven agencies
on construction or improvements of pub
lic property in the state, of which about
$4,000,000 is represented in loans by the
REA.
QUOTING LINCOLN : The recent ob
servance of Abraham Lincoln’s birthday
prompted the Association of American
Railroads to bring back a statement once
made by the great president of the United
States. It was: “No other improvement
that reason can justify us in hoping for,
can equal in utility the railroads . . .
Upon the railroad, the regular progress of
commercial intercourse is not interrupted
by either high or low water, or freezing
weather, which are the principal difficul
ties that render future hopes of water
communication precarious and uncertain.”
