MORE MONEY FOR FEDERAL
BUILDING

The glad tidings comes from Con-
gresham Lewis that he is absolutely
sure that the pending appropriation
will contain liberal sum for the
new Federal building at Americas.
This means that a handsome build
ing will be erected on the lot al
ready purchased Without this APP
preparation there could not have
been built a structure that would
have been at all creditable to the
city. 1t would then have been nee
essary to wait another weary year
before anything could be undertaken,
mad perhaps be disappointed again.
AS soon as the sum available is
determined, the government archi-
tects will draw up the plans, and then
bids will be called for. 1t is expect
ed that the work can be undertaken
within the next two or three months.
This adds one more to the indus
tries which will be in full blast this
summer. The new power house, the
street railway, the new compress, the
paving of the streets and the erection
of a $4,000 building will give a me-
tropolitan air to the city In fact
Americas will be the busiest little
city in Georgia this summer.
Congressman Lewis iB the "only
one" for Americas.

Property owners in Wilkinson coun-
ty are hunting diligently for a leak
alleged to have occurred in the
state biologists Office. Somebody, it
is claimed, tipped off spectators to
the fact that the geologist had found
bauxite on Wilkinson county land,
and these latter fastened to get
options on the section in which the
find was made. When the discovery
was officially announced the farmers
were incensed over being fooled into
giving options for small prices. Geer-
gia farmers remember the leak in
the national department of agricul-
ture in connection with the cotton
statistics.
