WAVE OF BUYING
LOOKED FOR AS
BONUS TIME NIGH
GEORGIA TO GET $43,011,000
WITH 81,000 VETS AS
HOLDERS
With 143,011,000 In bonus money
io flood the state of Georgia tomor
row, merchants were preparing stocks
and salesmen were preparing sales
talks In preparation for the greatest
spending spree ever predicted for a
nation. With 81,000 depression-weary
veterans to receive an average of
1531 in cashable bonds, it is prophe
sied by authorities on business trends
that commerce in general will get
the biggest peace-time boom it has
ever experienced. Apparently no on )
with anything to sell is asleep to
their prospects, for advertising and
displaying are all directed toward
veterans this weew.
Veterans are reminded of two
things: to be at home from 5:30 on
Monday afternoon until the postman
delivers their bonds, and be sure
that identification can be estab
lished.
Veterans must be further dentified
when applying to cash the bonds,
which they will do by taking them
to the postoffice where they will be
Issued a reclpt for the bond, which
w ibllrlng them a check by return
mail.
Estimates as to how the bonus
money would be spent prophesied
that 18 per cent would go towards
settling old debts and past-due ac
counts, with a close second of 17 per
cent going into saving funds, ftbout
six per cent of Georgia’s $43,011,000
will probably be Invested in business
enterprises, while doctor's and den
tist’s bills wil Iclaim as six per cent
slice. Vacations, home furniture,
and autos will averas.% around eight
per cent each, with the remainder of
the $531 average going into clothes
and miscellaneuos channels, which
the bonuseers will doubtless have lit
tle trouble in digging up.

HOWELL HITS AT TAXES
IN UNEVENTFUL RA
DIO ADDRESS
DANIELSVILLE, Ga„ June 13
(TP)—Hugh Howell, self styled Tal
madge henchman number one, stood
before an audience here today and
unequivocally announced that he is
“for Eugene Talmadge first, last and
always” but failed to make his ex
pected announcement as candidate
for Governor.
The speech broadcast to greater
portion of Georgia over WSB failed
to live up to expectations that Howell
would make startling revelations in
the political situation in state. Never
theless the State Democratic Execu
tive Committee Chairman let it be
known that he will have his hat in
the Gubernatorial ring should the
present Governor fail to run. Said
he: “If Howell’s name is before peo
ple of Georgia in coming campaign
it will be based one single platform
contained in six words. No more
taxes on Georgia people.” For most
part Howell delivered oration on Tal
madge s accomplishments together
with typical Talmadgite tirade against
the New Deal. He concluded his
speech by caiyng on Georgians to
decide where and how he can best
serve.
Meanwhile Talmadge maintains a
grim silence on the situation and re
fuses to comment on a reputed break
with Howell. About political plans he
says: “You’ll know it all July 4th.”
It is expected he will run against
Russell and name Redwine or How
ell his candidate Governor.

TO FORGET SLUMP
G. 0. P. DELEGATES SPENT
MORE THAN $1,000,000
DURING STAY
CLEVELAND, June 13 (TP).—Ho
tel and restaurant owners in Cleve
land are happily counting their
week’s income today as they bid fare
well to the last departing delegates
of the Republican national conven
tion. It was the busiest week they
have had in years.
The convention crowds jammed
hotels so that some visitors were
obliged to find rooms on boats
moored in Lake Erie. At restaurants
the diners had to stand in line to
await seats.
All that meant work for everybody
in the hotel and restaurant business.
The work was done willingly, though,
because the convention visitors were
good spenders.
The secretary of the Cleveland con
vention board, Mark Egan, estimated
the convention takings in Cleveland
as more than $1,000,000. Most of the
money went to hotels and restau
rants. A good part of it, however,
was spent in tips to hotel employes,
waiters, and waitresses. The bar
tenders had a hard week, too, but
their share of tips was small. Few
people ever tip a bartender.

TRADES ASSEMBLY
SEEKS NEW HOME
MAY MOVE INTO WHITE
FIELD BUILDING ON
WHITAKER STREET
Consideration is being given by the
Savannah Trades and Labor Assem
bly to the Whitefield Building, op
posite the Post Offic on Whitaker
street, as a possible headquarters for
that body when the present quarters
are vacated shortly. The building,
which is owned by the Union Society,
would afford ample space for the
labor organization s hall and business
office. Present occupants of the
building include a bakery and ex
press office on the first floor, with
the Bethesdi Alumnae Club •on the
second. None of these would be dis
turbed under present plans.
Opinion relative to the change is
favorable among labor leaders, it is
understood, as the new headquarters
would be but one block removed from
the old building, and would be easily
accessible for anyone. Several quar
ters have recently been considered,
but rejected for this reason.
Meetings will be held today and
Monday by the Savannah Trades and
Labor Assembly, with a meeting of
the executive board at 10 o’clock this
morning.
