sisting of wheat, corn, linseed, oats,
barley and rye make up the greatest
}output. Meat packing comes next.
Manufacturing developments include
automobile body factories, tire fac
tories, breweries, cotton mills, flour
mills, gas and electric companies and
the like. Automobiles are very ex
pensive. I nearly forgot to say that
traffic in Uruquay and Argentine is
directed to the left. I never felt
'quite comfortable on account of that
fact. In Buenos Aires, they have
numerous ways of transportation.
There is one little baby bus called a
“colectivo.” It will stop anywhere
for you. You should.see. their sub
way stations and trains. They would
put those of New York to shame. One
can go sight seeing in a subway sta
tion. Such floors made of tile and
the color can not wear off! Paintings
ion the walls, and mosaics of every
description are there too.
’ There is still plenty to write about
'but I cannot make this any longer.
Tonight, we’ll arrive in Santos again
for three days at least. Four of us
are considering taking the train from
Santos to Rio de Janerio so as to
have more time in Rio. We are going
to stop there again, for which I am
duly grateful. I'm about depleted fi
nancially and doubt the wisdom of that
trip. Did I tell you that we are obliged{
| by law to take 19% days on the return
trip from Rio? We'll get to New York
in 17 days and have to drop anchor out
‘of New York for 2 days or 2% days
lbefore we can get to shore. All of that
is on account of competition between
freighters. By that-time I'think lam
going to-dislike that extra 2% days.
So, 'we are likely to reach New York'
August 20th or 21st. ~'We've been de
layed at every port, we're glad to say!
I hope we will be delayed in' Rio some’
more. I'm going to ride on the Sugar
Loaf Mountain or bust.
SANTOS, JULY 26
Change of plans. We are not going
to stop at Rio and that breaks my
heart. And now we should dock at
New York on the 17th instead of the
20th. I wish they’d make up their
minds.
Here we are parked again out in the
river, not being able to dock here un
til night. We want to go ashore and
we have to have a launch come for us
and “hit a rainin’ ”—tough luck!

Fair Play e
‘Statesboro. — Br'er - Fox, of the
Statesboro foxes, decided that it was
‘about time to break the usual tradi
tion followed in. fox hunting. In e
-recent hunt on the farm of G. C. Cole
man, Sr, a fox was jumped and the
dogs were:hot on his trail. We don’t
know whether the fox just turned on
his personality or used psychology,
but when the hunters caught up with
the pack the fox was running with the
dogs. This sight, of course, astounded
the hunters but the beautiful friend
ship between the fox and the dogs was
quickly brought to an end. .

Speeders And Drunks
{‘Cause Many Arrests
~ Speed and drunk drivers caused
more than half of the arrests troopers
made in this patrol district last
month, figures at the Thomasville
‘headquarters of the State Department
of Public Safety show.
Os the 161 arrests made in August,
29 per cent were for exceeding in the
extreme the state’s 55-mile speed
limit, and 41 percent were for driving
under the influence of aleoholic be
erages. ;
Moreover, troopers “clipped” holes
as warnings in licenses of 897 drivers
for committing violations. Most of
those were for going around curves,
hills, or passing other vehicles at too
fast a rate, although not necessarily
in excess of the 55-speed limit, a sec
ond “clip” will mean 30-day license
suspension,
Counties in this district, designated
as No. 6, include Baker, Ben Hill,
Berrien, Brooks, Colquitt, Cook, De
catur, Early, Grady, Irwin, Lanier,
Lowndes, Miller, Mitchell, Seminole,
Thomas, Tift, Turner and Worth.
Troopers found that speed and
drunk drivers also caused most of the
accidents they investigated. They ar
rested 66 drivers who failed to have
licenses, and aided 186 travelers in
distress.
Most of the accidents, reports also
show, occurred at night time on a
straight-of-way which, State Safety
Commissioner Lon Sullivan said, in
dicates drivers are not using care and
caution they should under the wheel
after dark.
Throughout the state, patrolmen
“clipped” a total of 3,860 licenses,
made 1,153 arrests and investigated
305 highway accidents which in
volved about $50,679 worth of prop
erty damages. =
