has the right idea the first step is to
clean up a city . . . plant flowering shrubs
and small trees at its entrances . . . inspire
the citizens to become friendly, cordial . . .
provide clean, attractive sleeping accommo

last, but not least, give the tourist some
thing to do and to see.
Words of wisdom from a teen-ager
words, indeed, that every city, town and
hamlet in Georgia can heed with profit!
AN ATTRACTIVE TOWN IS LIKE A
MAGNET travelers go miles to places
where they like to stop. Those places are
towns that are clean, attractive and pro
gressive. Will your town be on the “let’s
stop” list of tourists —or will they race
through it and on to a town that has much
more to offer them?
There’s money plenty of money —in
the tourist trade, make no mistake about
that! Tourists WANT to spend —and they

BETTER HOME TOWNS DIVISION
GEORGIA POWER COMPANY
A CITIZEN WHEREVER WE SERVE
You aren't getting machinery, Mr. Farmer, because...
PICKET LINES
have taken the place of
PRODUCTION LINES!
...so don’t blame your Implement Dealer!
■crajiim ■■■ ■ i—■am ■■■mu f n ■
Your implement dealer had planned
and expected to have his display
floor filled with new implements and tractors
weeks ago. And we had planned to make
them—had told our dealers and our farmer
customers they would have new equipment
and plenty of service parts for the 1946 spring
work. And we had hoped to sell these ma
chines at no advance in price.
Real Production Had Started
When the war ended, our organization bent
every effort to increase production, with the
result that in the last months of 1945 ma
chinery was being built in very substantial
quantities. Here are a few figures:
PRODUCTION
ITEM NOV. 1945 DEC. 1945
Tractors 7,271 7,432
Combines 2,345 2,526
Cultivators 3,482 3,308
Hay Loaders 209 982
*Plows 6,185* 6,702*
*Plows are made in our Canton and Chattanooga Works,
which are not on strike. January production was 7J 47 plows.
Both your dealer and we were encouraged by
this production picture at the turn of the
year. But the strike changed all that. As you
know, the CIO United Farm Equipment &
Metal Workers of America called a strike in
ten of our plants, on January 21, 1946.
What Is The Strike About?
Wages are a basic issue. At the time of the
strike, Harvester employes were among the
highest paid workers in American industry.
When the strike began, the average hourly

you want to cash in on some of that new

right at hand when you have to DO SOME
THING ABOUT YOUR TOWN —or be
lost in the parade of progress.
Get busy now find out what you can
do to make your town attractive to tourists

good food, good lodgings, interesting things
to see, for the great hordes of tourists that
will soon be traveling in Georgia. Traveling

earnings in the ten plants, not including
overtime, were $1.15J6. If present wage pro
posals are adopted, this figure will become
per hour.
When the strike began, negotiations were
broken off by the Union on the issue of com
pulsory union membership. The Company
has no desire to weaken the Union. It recog
nizes certain reasonable needs of the Union.
But the Company does oppose compulsory
unionism. It feels strongly that an em
ploye’s membership should be a matter of
his own choice.
Material Costs and Price Relief
Wages and materials are the great costs of
operating our business —together they con
sume all but a few cents of every dollar the
Company takes in. Wages are obviously
going to be high—and nobody knows just
how high material costs will go.
In the face of rising costs of materials, the
Company does not see how it can pay the
wage increases recommended by a Govern
ment fact finding board until it has definite
and satisfactory assurance from the Govern
ment that reasonable price relief will be
granted to the Company within a reasonable
period of time. This matter is of such im
portance that it will not be discussed here,
but will be covered bj' future advertisements
devoted to both prices and profits.
Speaking for our dealers and ourselves, we
can assure you that no customer is more
eager than we are to resume production. We
are doing and shall continue to do everything
in our power to bring about a fair settlement
as soon as possible.
