Let ’em celebrate, Br’nswick’s 1
day comes next week. ]
‘
_
All Georgia highways will soon
lead to Brunswick.
1
Brunswick has the greatest “high¬
way booster” i i the state—and he’s l I
Mann. |
The “coll wave” didn’t touch the
Georgia peaches. Another cause for
shouting.
It’s an old adage, but it still holds
true—If you are not for your home
town, you are dead ag’in it.
When Brunswick and Macon get
really closely associated by a
deep watei route—well, just wait
and see.
Injunctions serve their purpose in
some cases, there’s no denying that
fact, but thei'e are times and occa¬
sions when they are “out of tune.”
One of the annoying features of
this little, old cold snap, is that the
moth balls will have to be tucked
away with the winter garments
again.
Those Soviet delegates to the Laus¬
anne Near East conference received
a warm welcome, if assassins’ bul¬
lets constitute that element of greet¬
ing.
There are many expert horticultur¬
ists who are pinning their faith to
the possibilities of Glynn. And there
has been no disappointments regis¬
tered up"*to this time as to the result:
of their efforts.
Senator Walter George came L
Brunswick unannounced yesterday
but that didn’t conceal his identity
for he was soon surrounded by a co
terie of friends—who took him off
a-fis'iiin’.
There is no doubt but that th
Infantry, Georgia Nation;
Guard, wli! held their annual er.
campmcnc cn St- Simon this summe'
There arc but few requisites ; o h
compiiocl with, and the;? will oe. at
tended to in ample tin:.
The “missing link' bet sen Jssu
and Brunswick will be ..
rigi * .he specific rsasrn that
powers that bs have so decreed. An: j
then :h 3 great Tfaccn-Bneeta»>c. ,
highway will be a continue.rs chai
leaier.g right up to Georgia’s greater
recreation. grounds by automobile— ’
St. Simon. I
Thera Is no getting around the fac'
that ro:d building and developmer,
of rural districts go hand in hand
tfhen a paved highway is buil
through, the farming districts of £
county, it means that the value o:
iaiids in that vicinity will go up, tha
more country homes will be buff
that there will be an increase of pep
uLtien, that tax values will rise an~
tbat those who live on the farms >v:l
be far better satisfied with their con
dition. A main highway that i:
paved soon becomes a consistent divi
dend payer.
Johnny Spencer, columnist of—os
for—the Macon Telegraph, who es¬
sayed a leading role in the Manor
centennial, ventures the following
comment: “Well, sir, there were s;
many different types of beauty aii.
loveliness in yesterday’s parade ths
it makes our head swim to watei
them. But we kept on looking. Am
learned several things, too. For in
stance, vve didn’t know before t-ha !
back in lSSli the lissome lassies o
Wesleyan dressed thatuwayl and rod.
hossback. We must have passed th
school a hundred - times that session
but possibly not at recess. Ho hum
The- old time fashions are goo
enough for us, we’ll tell the -highly
spoken-of world.’'
As the glories ox a gorgeous sun
set are' obscured by a foreboding
cloud, comes the ominous forebodings
of a serious obst acle to the accent
plishntent of one of Brunswick’s and
Glynn county's most ambitious under¬
takings—the building of a great high
v --7 connect this city with St. Si
mon island.
is regrettable, after all of t.hi
months of waiting, of anxiety, of
lh f this ^ ect - on
achievemen
should be Halted by a court proceed
mg' that may ultimately delay the be
ginning cf the most pretentious high
way ever undertaken by any city am
county in Georgia. It is not a mat
ter of very great consequence to tin
i'crtiv- involved who feel that their
property rights have been infringe!
upon, but it is a situation that con
earns the city, ths county and tin
state. It is conceded that everyom
.
cannot, and will not see through th
same lensc, but it must be grantee
that everybody must make conees
s ^ ons » sometimes, on occasion, when
the very life blood of a community i
at stake.
It has beer: heralded to the world
as it were, that work on the St. Si
mon Highway is to begin next Wed¬
nesday, the program arranged fo.
the auspicious occasion, the contrae
tors on the ground to begin opera
tions, and now comes the unexpecte:
announcement that injunction pro¬
ceedings are to be instituted by cer
tain property owners to forestall thi:
work on account of leaving' theii
property further away from the high
.'.ay than the circuitous route now
used.
But that is not the story, it is th<
story of the thwarting, or attemptec
thwarting, of the beginning of work
on the St. Simon Highway by thcs<
property owners, who cannot realize
the gravamen of their contemplate!
action in this matter. Certain it i:
that they cannot be seriously ag¬
grieved, their property values depre
dated by the building of the high
way to the island, especially when it
is to be taken into consideration that
the space between their front gates,
now a marsh, will be transformei
into a park of great attractiveness.
It is reiterated that it is unfortu¬
nate that these property owners can
not see their way clear to make an>
concession in this matter. If theii
holdings were affected, that would b
another matter, but the reverse i:
true. They will be enhanced in value
The injunction proceedings will no'
deter the beginning of work on th<
St. Simon Highway as originally
planned. There arc other ways ol
beginning work on a project of this
kind exclusive of the original begin
ning point.
It is to be sincerely hoped that the
parties, who are laboring under tlr
impression that they have been in
jurod, will realize that they, as wel
as others, are expected to make r.
concession when 'the welfare and
nresperity of their city and town is
■■eighed in the balance. It is to be
deplored that they cannot see it tha!
vay.
But, no.withstanding, work on the
... c 'T*’on Highway is going to pro¬
sed.
WOMEN FOR PEACE
It has been a matter of sincere in
crest that the Genera! Federation of
Vcmen's Clubs, now meeting in At
.anta for the mid-biennial council, is
jiving serious consideration to the
proposed international court of jus
ice and seems about,to endorse such
court as an official resolve on the
part of the federation
It is to be expected that wornmi,
whose thought and purpose in life
constructvie as well as idealistic,
would give whole-souled endorsemcii
io any plan tending towards the abol¬
ishing cf international strife and end¬
ing for all time, not only the possi¬
bility of war, but. what is more, the
dreadful thing itself.
The most important organized body
.n the world is the General Fedeia
tion of Women’s Clubs. It represents
millions of women, and in
■ng women, it represents our leisure
class, and in representing the leisure
class, the class which is informed, is
educated and is intelligent, is repre
sented.
That this body should give its en
dorsement to a world court widen
shall hasten the day of world pear
is to be expected.
It is a significant thing, too, that
the federation seemS about to declare
itself in favor of the world court.
Woman's power now is an assured
thing in world affairs. It is no triv¬
ial matter that these several null ion
women seem about to go yn record in
favor cf this much desired world co
operation. It is a definite outgrowth
of their newly acquired power which
the vote has given them, an expres
sion of thrir part in the’world as bp
ir.gs who have learned that teal's slicd
over. the trenches of those cradled i.
love need be shed no longer, for now
with the vote in ha|nd, expression ca>
really express and congress will an¬
swer these voters.
FARMERS AND INDUSTRY
The Georgia Industrial Bureau k
bound to prove a big factor in the de
velopment of the state and its re
sources, in the opini m of the Allan
ta Journal.
The spirit manifested at the Ma
on meeting, that formally launche<
the organization, is a guarantee tha
the efforts of the bureau will be ex
pendcJ along lines calculated t<
stimulate an awakening throughou
The state and to encourage outsider:
,o look with favor upon Georgia fo
lie investment of capital.
The Macon conference is to be con
gratulated upon the personnel of th
board of directors it elected to direc
the activities of the Bureau. Every
member of the directorate is particu
larly well suited to further the worl
that the organization has set itsel
o, and pulling together the member
of the board may be expected t
ichieve results of a beneficial natur
to the entire state.
It is gratifying to note that the Bu
reau went on record as favoring closi
co-operation with the Georgia Assc
ciation, to the end that plans may bi
perfected for team work between th
two organizations that will contributi
.0 the agricultural and industrial de
velopment of the community. The tw
bodies working in harmony and co
operation should accomplish a work
of good in the fields in which thei
endeavors are exerted.
The speech of Senator George, a
the Macon conference, was especial!
noteworthy. It displayed a painstak
ing study of the industrial situatim
in the South. The Senator is entire!
right in his contention that Georgu
will never fully develop along indui
trial lines until technical experts ar
trained in our educational institu
lions, who are competent to len<
their skill and knowledge to the dc
velopment of industries of all sorts
“The farmers need credits, eo-o|)
erative marketing and transporta
tion revisions,” will remarked Sen
ator George. “But these things alon
will not bring an era of prosperity' !■
this section that would naturally en
sue if each county had an industria
center, where non-producers of agr;
cultural product's would serve as con
sumers for the diversified crops of tin
farmers.”
Senator George’s 'contention isi ab'
solutely sound. The prosperity o
the farmer is dependent upon con
sumers. New England is industria
all right enough; so are New Tori
and Pennsylvania. But these section:
arc not, without their farmers, all o
whom are prosperous because the in
dustrial centers, with which these sec
tions are dotted, furnish a ready mar
ket for the products of Jbe soil. Th
farmers arc not dependent upon foi
eign or far removed markets for th'
sale of their produce.
The Georgia Industrial Bureau ma
be relied u; on to exert its best effort
to encc age the establishment o
new and the enlargement of old in
Justifies in the state, and at the same ;
time work with a view to helping the|
farmers.
WOMEN AND THE POLL TAX
There seems to be some confusion
or lack of information with referenc:
to women and the poll tax. A state
ment recently issued by Attorney
General Napier clears up the whole
matter. Here it is in substatnee: j
“The legislature in 1922 passed an i
act requiring women over twenty |
one years of age to pay a poll tax 0 |
?1 a year. The act took effect in and
far the year 1922. It provided, how- ;
ever, that women should not be re- j
quired to pay the poll tax unless they
registered.
“For a woman to register and vote
in 1923, she must pay her 1922 poll
tax. If she does not wish to register j
she is not required to pay a poll tax.
The 1923 poll tax will not be due un- ] i
til the fall of the year, he further
( explained, “and need not be worried I
j about at the present time.”
j celebration Brunswick of will “Hospital join heartily Day,” in which the
,
i will be observed today at the City
j Hospital, in keeping with the eelebra
; tion of cities of every state in the
j Union. It can be said, now, that
! there is not a city in this state, or
any other state, which can boast of
a more efficient institution than
Brunswick. Within the past few
months the City hospital has been
equipped with every modern appliance
and occupies an attitude of superiori¬
ty over many that make more pre
tentious claims. There is not‘an in
I stitution of this’-kind' whidieqn
of more thorough competency in
! service rendered. The supjariuten
dent, and the nurses, have demon
‘ strated their efficiency on many occa¬
: 'ion? wftb 'the result that 'Die Brunt
wick hospital non stands at the very
head of institutions of its kind in this
section of Georgia. It is . the civic
duty of every citizen of Brunswick to
visit the hospital today and see for
themselves just what a great insti-]
ution they really have fight here in
their midst. :
