PAGE EIGHT HOME OWNERSHIP STRESSED BY HUNT BEFORE MAYORS SAVANNAH BANK EXECU TIVE ADDRESSES AS SEMBLY STATESBORO George W. Hunt, executive vice president of the Chatham Savings and Loan Company, this morning ad dressed the Mayors’ Association of the First Congressional district, meet ing at Statesboro, on the proposed 15-mill tax limitation constitutional amendment. Mr. Hunt, who has been promi nently identified with the real estate business in Savannah for over a quar ter of a century, stressed in his talk the great burden under which real estate owners are laboring today, re minding the mayors that 85 per cent of the cost of government is being borne by real estate owners. The value of home ownership was emphasized, and its difficulty under the present conditions of high taxa ' tion were pointed out by the speaker, who declared that the federal govern ' ment, through the FHA, was recog nizing its value and attempting to promote home ownership, but finding it hard in Georgia to “bring back the old conditions where a man of ordi nary means could find it passible to own a home and raise his family in the best environment.” Mr. Hunt warned the mayors of the present trend to move to rural areas where living facilities are now almost as comfortable as the city, thus escaping high taxation. The reluctance of capital to invest in new contsruction could be traced, said the speaker, to the dangers of taxation so high as to prohibit a profit. Mr. Hunt in closing called on the mayors’ sense of fairness, in realiz ing the one-sided weight being placed upon property owners, and asked their support of the proposed limitation amendment. POLICE BULLETS END LIVES OF TWO CANINES A dog, believed to be rabid, was shot and killed at 8:05 o’clock this morning by Police Officer J. W. Hattrich.

Campbell, of Wichita, Kansas, president of the Young Dem ocrats of Kansas, has accepted an in vitation of King Dixon, president of the Young Democrats of Georgia to attend the convention of the Georgia group which is to be held soon after the national Democratic convention in Philadelphia. In his acceptance Mr. Campbell in formed Mr. Dixon he would be ac companied to the Georgia gathering by a substantial representation from the ranks of the Young Democrats of Kansas. Similar invitations have been extended to the presidents of other associations of Young Democrats in SUMMER SESSIONS FEES ARE LOWERED BY PLEA OF SCHOOL BOARD HEAD Increased facilities and reduction in fees for the elementar.’ schools’ summer session were requested and obtained by Ormond B. Strong, su perintendent of schools, at a meeting of the board of education held yes terday afternoon. The action was taken to increase attendance by mak ing the school more accessible and the fees smaller. Under present plants, summer schools will be set up in the Henry street school and in Chatham Junior High school for the elementary grades, and the fees cut in half. Sum mer classes for these grades were heretofore held only in the Thirty- Seventh street school. A fund of $2,000 set aside by the board previously for summer school instruction but only partially used will provide finances for the addi tional classes. Six or seven additional teachers will be needed. In an effort to collect some $12,- 000 outstanding in boak fees due the public school system from the last school session, the board of education yesterday authorized the employment of collectors to collect the fees on a commission basis. The sum repre sents one-third of the fees assessed last year. Realization of the fact that the situation is growing worse rather than improving with returning pros perity led O. B. Strong, school su perintendent, to request the action. THREE MEN HELD FOR QUESTIONING IN CARELLAS CASE COUNTY POLICE HEAD RE LUCTANT TO DISCLOSE INFORMATION Despite the fact that three persons are being held today for questioning; in the investigation of the mysteri ous murder on June of Peter Canel las, county police refused to indicate if any substantial progress had bsen made on the search for the actual slayer. ’ County Police Chief W. F. Chap man was reluctant to reveal any de tails of the investigation and answer ed queries in an evasive fashion. The police chief was inclined to mini mize the report that grilling of those held had not ben unproductive. Chief Chapman insisted this morning there had been no development in the case to which importance could be at tached. Three in Custody Nevertheless, it was learned three white men remained in custody of po lice today as the work of tracing the brutal slayer of the popular Greek- American citizen entered upon its second week. Os this trio, two were young men who had been arrested Sunday night. A friend of the pair who came to county police headquar ters yesterday morning was refused permisison.to see them but was per mitted to leave some chewing tobac co to be given the prisoners. Police refused to name this duo detained. The third prisoner, also a white man, is James Houston, age 35. He was placed in Jail following the ar rest of the two younger white men. A fourth man who was questioned by county police yesterday was not de tained. Reward Now $250 Rewards for information leading to the convitlon of the murder of Garel las now stands at $250. Mr. Carellas was district governor of the Ahepa, national Greek-American fraternal or ganization. He was slain when his head was ruthlessly battered with some sort of blunt instrument in the auto wrecking lot operated by the dead man on Bay Street Extension not far from the city viaduct. Mr. Carellas likewise maintained a filling station in front of the auto wrecking lot, which station faced on the Bay Street Extension. The booty was discovered about 5 o’clock in the afternoon on June 7. The business man had been last seen an hour be fore. As far as could be determined, the murder weapon has never been located. MORTUARY MRS. J. G. SMITH The funeral of Mrs. J. G. Smith, who died Sunday, was held this aft ernoon at 3:30 o’clock at the Syna gogue, Mickve Israel. The funeral of Mrs. Anna Vogel was held this afternoon at 4 o’clock this afternoon at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. C. C. Wilder, at 304 East Park avenue. Interment was In Laurel Grove cemetery. MARRIAGE LICENSES Inquiry at the ordinary’s office re vealed that marriage licenses were is sued yesterday to Leon Deutsch and Miw Gussie Itzkovitz of Savannah, and Clifford Edward Davis and Miss Rosemary Barbour. all of the southern states and officers of the Alabama, Tennessee and Louis iana groups have been urged especial ly to be on hand with their followers. A large part of the Georgia conven tion will be given over t# the ex change of campa* n ideas. Particular interest will be taken in Georgia in the news of the intended visit of the Kansas delegation in the light of the importance of the battle ground in the latter state from which the Republican nominee, Alf M. Lan don, hails. The Young Democrats of Kansas constitute a singularly strong political faction and they occupy a key role in all of the elections in that state. That many parents able to pay the fees are taking advantage of the leniency heretofore extended in col lecting the fees was the opinion of the board. Families actually unable to pay the fees will be deleted from the collectors’ lists. The transportation committee of the board was given authorization to purchase three new school busses of the most modern type, to be placed in service this fall. Funds for the purchase will come from the current appropriation. Morton H. Levy, architect, recom mended that the board divert some $20,000 from the construction fund of the new high school building to the equipment column. Mr. Levy ex plained that there would be a sur plus of construction funds and a de linquency of money for the necessary equipment. Band and orchestra equip ment, cafeteria utensils, portable chairs and bleacher seats, gymnasium equipment, etc., were to be purchased with the money. Superintendent Strong branded the equipment men tioned “frills” bub the change was au thorized by the board in order that the new school might be modern in every detail. The money will come out of $58,000 which will remain in the construc tion allocation for the new building. Remainder of the sum will be utilized by the WPA to reimburse the board for preliminary expenditures up to 45 per cent. FUND FOR NURSES TOPIC OF ADDRESS EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM SOURCE OF INTEREST AT HEALTH CENTER The establishment of a loan fund whereby nurses of the health center might avail themselves of worthwhile educational corses was the chief topic in an informal address made by the local chamber of commerce execu tive vice president in an address last night at te meeting of the Health Center. The fund was suggested as a project for the educational commit tee of the health center, which is un der the direction of Mrs. Charlton Theus, chairman. The committee presented a program on education at last night’s session. Visiting nurses, Mr. Jones said, have a great opportunity to render service for the upbuilding of the health of the community. Mr. Jones reminded that “wthere there is an opportunity there s a corresponding obligation,” which in this case rests with the Health Center. Organizing the loan fund suggested would be a good way to fulfill such a responsibil ity he declared. Dr. R. V. Martin discussed the re sponsibilities and opportunities of visiting nurses, and outlined a course of action for the nurses to follow which be most beneficial to the homes they serve. The nurse’s re sponsibility in detecting contagious diseases in their early stages was emphasized by Dr. Martin, who de clared that for every known cause of tuberculosis, ten inactive and ten potential cases were lurking nearby. A report of the school nursing service during 135-36 was given by Miss Helen E. Bond, which illustrat ed the valuable work being carried out among school children.

Market Letter WALDO YOUNG—The final form that the tax bill will take is prob lematical. It is of primary concern, of. course ,to business and markets. Meanwhile, preparations for the Dem ocratic Convention which opens a week fro mtoday in Philadelphia, will shortly be on the front pages. After Congress, the Convention and the platform are out of the way, the problem of business and how much let down the summer will bring will present itself. These considerations plus Europe and its currencies, are well known and they probably account for the dull drift of the stock mar ket. If the market does no more than drift until the outlook is clear er, it will have absorbed, in orderly fashion, news developments that lie ahead of unpromising nature. TOPlCS—American Woolen Pfd, buying was urged in last two weeks from around 63. Think later it will og to par and up. American Power Light, it is a buy under 12 now in our opinion. United Corpn, here we think is a stock that offers possibil ities of 100 per cent and more over the long pull. Radio Corpn, our first buying recommendation was near ten recently, then 11 and now we think 12 will be the logical spot to add more. Must have patience however to make the important profits.
