THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
DO AUGUSTANS BELIEVE
IN AUGUSTA?
Mr. Harrv C. Vaiden Makes Statements That Show Just How
Much He Does Believe in Auqusta
(Hy Harry Vaiden.)
Every Urn* I atend an Auggneta Booater'a nesting, I always hear
practically the aume atory of Augusta's advantagea. It la eaaentlal that
Augusta capitalize and utilize these advantages, which we all know aha
him. In order to receive the benefit. Enhancement of real estate In any city
Is largely dependent upon the Increase of Ita population. Whatever hooats
Augusta, Augiistans should boost. Those Individuals In Augusta who are
so constituted as to make them Incapable of boosting, should at least keep
posted.
The records will allow that Augusta has been more active In real
estate In the year 1913-14 than at any other time In her history. I feel
thnt this Is largely.due to the fact that The Empire Life Insurance Com
pany's magnificent seventeen story building created a seventeen-story
faith In Augusta, and together with the Chronicle's steel building and the
Savannah lllver Levee has caused Investors to begin buying
At once a market was created, assisted greatly by the publicity In
your paper of the trades us they oc -tired..
Real estati activity Is started hy citizens' attention being arrested,
and made to see that they have real estate investment opportunities
right at hand Instead of thinking they have to buy some Florida swainpa
or tobacco lands. The minute the world knows that Augusta people are
Investing In Augusta dirt, tthe outside capitalist will show like faith.
Personally I am glad to see central real estate Investors in Au
gusta buying on enhancement rather than on a rent Income basis. To
begin with, rents in Augusta are entirely too low. and If land values were
not so ahsuredly low In Augusta, you would see a number of the so-called
Broad street stores Improved so as to bring in the proper returns.
Population growth in the most essential thing to my mind for a
substantial boom. We need a commercial hotel, —and we are going to
have It, that will he so enticing that travelers will come through Macon,
Atlanta, Columbia and Savannah to spi*nd the week end at our hotel.
Heretofore we could offer nothing to the “roller-top desks.” Now
we have two magnificent office buildings tinder way. Augusta Is the log
ical distributing point for Georgia and Carolina. We want those agen
cies established here*. We have to work for them, hut we must get them,
and our banka should co-operate.
The Merchants and Manufacturer's Association Is a great organi
zation, hut the success of that or any other organization is largely depen
dent upon the support of the city at large. They can invite capital to come
anil invest In Augusta, and can eventell them the advantages It would he
to them, and can offer our electric power, but unless we first show faith
ourselves, the result will he futile.
Recently we have had 35.000-horse power turned Into our city from
Stephen's Creek. Soon our cities and towns will he linked together with
Inter-urban lines, and competition between cities will likewise spring up.
We have the Savannah river with its newly organized barge lines to help
us meet this competition, but we need also, that which we have never had,
a systematic way of organizing small Industries, which will consume
Steven’s Creek power; Industries that will go over our store lofts and push
out the tenants to little homes in the city and suburbs where theyrightly
belting. If .this Is done, and we must do it, it opens another line of growth
the hon e building companies will spring up. and the family that Is pushed
out from over the hot store to make way for the small industry, can
Invest Ills savings in a home.
I would he one of a hundred men, that not only would buy SIOO.OO of
stock on tin- first of every January in a profitable, small industry, but
would work to help get a hundred more. Say for instance, a club of one
hundred subscribing SIOO.OO worth of stock on January Ist of each year
five years.
Out of the hundred men, five men could he selected to Invest and
safeguard the fund. This would mean SIO,OOO on the first day of every
January for five years. The Merchants and Manufacturers' Association
could then say: “Mr. Investor, not only do we invite you to our city, but
if you have $5,000 to Invest In a suspender factory, we have $5,000 to lay
beside yours as un evidence of our good faith, provided you can convince
our committee of five your proposition is one of merit." With $10,000.00
two enterprises can he started every year with a SIO,OOO capitalization
fully paid In, which will bring with them families that will have to buy
or rent homes, buy groceries and clothes In Augusta, and not a single
man of the club of one hundred will he burdened by such a scheme, hut
on the other hand will be making an investment that will yield good re
turns. .
