ADVERTISEMENTS TO POINT
OUT CONTRIBUTIONS TO
ECONOMY OF STATE
The first of a proposed series of
advertisements pointing out the
contributions made to the econ
omy of the state of Georgia by
the Savannah plant of Union Bag
& Paper Corporation appears in
this issue of The News.
The Savannah plant of Union
Bag, which is one of the largest
users of forest products in the
state, has only recently complet
ed a series of nine advertisements
which appeared in every paper in
the state. The theme of this se
ries was the proper care, protec
tion and intelligent cutting of
Georgia’s forests.
The current series of advertise
ments, planned to cover a period
of nine months, will, officials of
Union Bag pointed out, tell the
story in the words of others, of
the part the Savannah plant is
playing in the economy of the
people in practically every com
munity of the state.
Union Bag’s Savannah plant
makes paper, paper board and
bags from the pine tree. Its high
ly integrated operation, which in
cludes the complete utilization of
'a Georgia raw material, provides
employment for more than 4,000
people in its plant, and more
than 2,500 in woods operations.
Something Added
Cleaning and dyeing establish
ments undertaking to dye uni
forms for civilian wear have re
ported some rather unusual re
quests from ex-soldiers. One of
the most novel was offered to a
firm in Memphis.
“I understand,” said a yoking
ex-GI, “that you dye unifroms.”
“Yes, we do, in seevral colors,”
was the reply.
“Well,” said the patron, “sup
pose you dye this one brown with
a pin stripe.”

A CORRECTION
In an article published by this
paper recently in which J. L.
Fortney, manager of the Georgia
Baptist Children’s Home, is quot
ed as having made the following
statement, “It will be the policy
of the Georgia Baptist Children’s
Home in the operation of the
branch at Baxley to accept gifts
only from Baptist churches and
individual Baptists,” Fortney
states that the quotation should
have read: “It will be the policy
of the Georgia Baptist Children’s
Home in the operation of the
branch at Baxley to expect gifts
from Baptist churches and indi
vidual Baptists only.”
Fortney states that “while no
solicitation for support of Bap
tist orphanage work in Georgia
will be made of anybody except
through the regular channels,
gifts from those of other faiths
are accepted with gratitude, but
Bapists have no right to expect
support from individuals or
churches other than Baptist.” He
states further that “he would
like to thank all such individuals
over Georgia who have in days
gone by contributed to the work
in Baxley, and that he desires it
to be understood that it was he
that made the mistake and not
this newspaper.”
