HOW THE BOAT LINE IS
GOING TO REDUCE THE
COST OF LIVING IN
AUGUSTA.
Of all the bunk put out
by the proponents of the
plan to have the City of
Augusta buy a $135,000
boat for the river with the
tax monies of the people,
the worst to our minds is
the cry that it will reduce
the cost of living to all the
people in Augusta. It will
have absolutely nothing to
do with the cost of living in
Augusta as far as the peo
ple generally are concern
ed whether there is a boat
line on the river or not.
Let us take the item of
food alone.
We challenge the boat
line proponents to show
how the boat line is going
to reduce the cost of food to
the people of Augusta. The
annual food bill of Augusta
is well over $6,500,000.
This sum of money is spent
for meat, milk, bread, but
ter, eggs, sugar, flour, pota
toes, and vegetables, coffee,
tea and chocolate, fish, can
ned goods, fruits, etc.
The difference in freight
on such of the above arti
cles that were actually
hauled by the boat line as
•gainst the rail rate is
shown to be for a six
months period $5,417.11, or
approximately SII,OOO for
the year. How much of this
claimed yearly saving of
SII,OOO do you imagine is
reflected to the Individual
consumer in his purchase of
over $6,500,000 which is
Augusta's yearly food hill.
Our guess is that not a cent
of this claimed saving of
freight of SII,OOO went to
the individual constimer
and purchaser of food sup
plies in Augusta.
We doubt if there was
very much saving even to
the shipper of this freight
by the boat line out-of the
SII,OOO shown, when there
is charged up against it as
there should be, extra in
surance, extra delay,
claims, haulage, and inter
est on the money, save per
haps in the one item alone
of sugar, which constitutes
more than half of the entire
SII,OOO.
And the price of sugar to
the ultimate consumer in
Augusta is made not by the
Savannah river boat freight
rate hut by the conditions
in the world markets plus!
the sharp retail competition i
offered by the retail grocers
of Augusta. We imagine
the chain stores and the en
terprising independents are
keeping Augusta's annual
sugar bill down and not the
freight rate on sugar hy the
Savannah river boat line.
What do you think about
it?
Some of the other indi
vidual savings in freight by
the boat line, as affecting
Augusta's final food bill are
interesting. For the six
months period there was a
saving on cheese of $1.47,
Flour $211.64, Coffee
$311.62, Chocolate $26.27,
Mackerel $131).59, Produce
$7.23. With some 52.000
people in Augusta to feed
•over a six months period,
figure out your own saving
as shown by the boat line in
the reduced cost of living
for the six months period.
And when you ha\e fig
ured this out, on the above
items, figure out the other
articles of your diet that
were not hauled by the boat
line and on which the boat
line as such did not nffect
any actual saving in the
food supply of the people of
Augusta—such major items
as meat. milk, butter, poul
try. eggs, etc. Don’t fool
yourself that the boat line
cuts any figure in the cost
of living in Augusta or that
it ever will.
RUNNING TIME TO SAVANNAH.
Actual running time between Sa
vannah and Augusta baa been re
duced to two houra and 67 minute*
and It la believed that a new record
baa been eatabllahed between the two
clllea. The run wae made last Mon

THE PULLMAN SURCHARGE
Thu traveling public will be glad
when the Pullman surcharge on pas
eenger fares la eliminated. The aur
olmrge Is *0 per cent of the scheduled
Pullman fare, of which one-half goes
to the railroads which, In sddltlon to
this, are collecting the regular fare
from Initial points to destination. The
rail roarls are putting up a stiff fight
on the proposal to slim.nets the sur
charge, hut the travelling public end

harked by the state public service, are

The question Is one to he decided

alon may see fit, and a decision tla
looked (or In ten days. Thn surcharge
la in Imposition on the traveling pub
lic, and It Is a plain case of profiteer
ing. When the aurchsrge was created
(he railroads were making no money,
j They were demoralised and disorgan
ised by the effects of the war and
wore having a hard time recovering
from It. The publlo recognised the
esigenctea of the situation and there
was no serious opposition to the sur
charge.
These condition* have now passed
away and railroads sra now no longer
distressed. In point of fset they are
even more prosperous than during the
pre-war period. They now wish to re

Foolish to Say River Transportation Will Be an Aladdin’s
Lamp for Augusta. Dream Fades When Light of
Logic and Reason is Thrown Upon it. Herald
Gets Letters on Subject
To The Herald; (
It Is with iom« trepidation that I
rush into print on the eubjact of the
ooat line, realising that I may be
[ dubbed a reactionary and lacking vis
ion and local patriotism, no unless
you deem it entirely necessary I would
prefer that you omit my name.
If being ho constituted a n to de
mand facts and clear logic before my
mind can act upon a proposition is to
be termed a lack of vision on my
part, then you may stamp me as one
without vision, But vision or no vis
ion, J hone you will allow me space
to get just a few things off my
chest.
In the first place, It strikes me
that Augusta can ill afford to spend
IS per cent of her estimated income
for 1924 upon a deal that is highly
speculative, to say the least. Why,
Mr. Editor, has It occurred to you
that it will take practically all of the
taxes paid by the First Ward, or by
all the property owners on Greene
street, to pay for a boat which is to
be placed on the river "in the hope”
of getting something for Augusta?
Has a HU*te legislature or the con
gress of the United States —and good
ness knows they have made some
wild appropriations—-ever voted to
spend the taxpayers money for some
thing that was an admitted specula
tion? is the city to spend 15 cents
out of every dollar It receives for the
purpose of going into the transporta
tion business? A dream? you ask.
Mr, Editor, it Is a nightmare.
I once had the good fortune to make
a trip to Havannuh on the good ship
Altamaha. These smaller boats, In
the hands of skilled pilots, are able
lo take the curves and narrows that
aro encountered between here and Sa
vannah, but will a bigger boat-one
170 feet long and 34 feet wide—be
able to Inakf a “reverse curve” with
out having Its stern Jammed In the
sand? It Is a closg shave for the old
Altamaha at many points belowe Au
gusta-even half way to Savannah —
and I would hate to risk a new boat
of mine on these turns. As a mat
ter of fact, would It not be Impos
sible for a hot 170 feet long and 34
test broad to get by?
My patriotism for Augusta has
never been questioned, and some peo
ple have been good enough to say that
I have vision, but If the endorsement
of a 1135,000 boat, bought by the
dty. Is essential to the perpetuation
of my record in this regard, then
kindly count me out. »
Yours for Augusta,
SMALL TAXPAYER.
BOATS ON RIVER NOT
PANACEA FOR AUGUSTA.
To The Herald:
Heading sn account of the paper
read by Mr. Thomas J. Hamilton be
fore a special session of City Council
last Monday night, urging that body
to adopt the report of the “Savan
nah Klver Development Committee,”
I must confess that 1 am at a loaa
to know how the expenditure of $135,-
000 for a boat will ln< rease the yield
of cotton in this section.
Summing up the many glorious
things that will come to Augusta ns
presented by Mr. Hamilton, namely,
“ion,non people by 1934, a tax digest
of $150,000,000. savings of millions of
dollars yearly In our freight, rates,
freight warehouses lining our river
hanks for miles, millions of tons of
merchandise concentrated her© from
all points In the South.” and so on.
If City Council will but spend $135,000.
A pretty healthy Investment’ Stock
in this sort of a transportation com
pany Is worth having.
Although such great things as these
are to develop from this enterprise.
business men of Augusta refuse to
invest In It. Why. is it sound? It
certainly does not seem to be. But
Mr. Hamilton says that this amount
of money cannot be raised from ,

city—-that Is to tay, according to his
utatement, they are too poor. If
they are not financially able to do
this, then they are certainly in too
weak a financial condition for the
city to harness an additional tax
burden on them to raise this amount
of money.
If an investment of $135,000 will
bring in such an enormous return in
ho short a time, a responsible busi
ness community would not hesitate
to borrow the necessary funds. It
cannot be argued that a tax will so
distribute the burden that It will not
be felt. The strength of a com
mercial community reflects the finap- I
rial strength of the people it serves.
The chain is no stronger than its
weakest link.
It is nothing short of economic sui
cide to ask City Council to drain al
most the last drop of the financial
blood of the people. Where is vision
In this sort of a request? If this is
not putting tSe city backward, then
pray tell me, what is It doing? En
forcing burdensome taxes cirpples
and ultimately destroys capital,
rather than creates it. To say that
taxes here and throughout the na
tion are not too high, la to fly in the
face of concrete facts.
To get down from the mountain
peak and go into the valley where
things are produced and where
dreaming dreams and having visions
fade out in the face of practical
problems, it might be suggested that
early planting of cotton, use of more
fertiliser, Intensified cultivation with
proper poisoning of the boll weevil
and a ggod deal of dry hot weather
—though the latter injiy be a bit hard
on the river—will do more to restore
a normal yield of cotton than all of
the steamboats In the world. Ocean
liners docked along-side the “miles
of warehouses on the river” will not
charm the boll weevil away from cot
ton squares, not prevent wet weather,
neither would it stimulate intensified
cultivation of the crop.
If my understanding of the freight
rate Jaws is correct, Augusta will not
foave an annual increase of millions
of dollars In freight rates, even though
there should never ho another boat
on the river. The day of cut-throat
methods of rate-making on the part
of railroads is a thing of the past. An
adjustment of rates, as l see it, will
so equalize thing*, that the work
ing of a hardshi pon Augusta will not
be brought about. So. on this score
there does not seem to bo any sort
of an argument for a boat line.
It is more than an empty dream ot
predict that Augusta would have a
population of 100,090 by 1934. to
nothing of the assertion that theru
will be miles of warehouses on the
river. It is a good second “Jack and
tho Bean Stalk” story.
Yes. the absence of vision may be
the sura road to perishing, but—mis
taking illusion for vision Is destruc
tive beyond almost any hope of re
demption. If experience Is not going
to be our guide for the future, then
we place ourselves beyond the pale
of reason, and into the blundering of
the stupid beast of tho field, that ul
timately learns from experience its,
and all creatures, only guide. Boats
on the Savannah river between Au
gusta nnd Savannah have never been
a paying proposition, had they been.
a boat line would be operating today
without any trouble. If Hie busi
ness bad been there. It would have
built up tho line, and given to the
owners profits instead of Josses.

THE WAIL OP A SARDINE
(Author Unknown)
Up from the Savannah's mouth I
came,
Traversing miles of winding ways;
Thinking that In dear old Augusta,
Surely 1 would aee better days.
Merely a Minnow when I left home,
I easily swam past every curve;
But now I'm in the big fish class.
I've grown real atout and lost my
nerve.
I started back to Savannah Bay,
Having grown to man’s estate:
But hardly half way down the stream,
I could sea It was too late.
The narrow lines from shore to shore,
Would not permit me now to pass:
So t returned to Center St. Bridge,
And joined tha boosters’ class.
A cat fish lolling near the wharf,
At Augusta—far from the sea;
Quickly saw the fix 1 was In,
And made mean sport of me.
A fish la like some folks I know.
Said the cat with hateful glee;
A river looks so Mg to them
It's mistaken for the sea.
A little boat or a little fish
Can through the narrows glide;
But if they are too long or stout—
Well, you know, for you have tried.
There Is a aaying, now quite old.
That we perish without vision;
So when you left Savannah Bay.
It was the wrong decision.
Your case reminds me of s plan,
K>r a new boat on this stream;
They ve overlooked the narrows.
And admit the plan's a dream.
