Ragland is the immediate repre-

been for years, one Of the best known
"drummers" in Georgia, and while he
always gets reelected to. the Legis-

Ragland claims nothing particu-

as If 1t might be worthy OF imitation

Prison Commissioner II. l.. Rainey
evidently is rather old fashioned in
some of his Views-Some people Will
think refreshingly so, indeed
He is a candidate to succeed him
self as a member of the Prison Board
and in anticipa tion of his campaign
for e-election has resigned his place
as member of the state Democratic
Executive Committee. He thinks he
can not, with propriety and good
taste, to say nothing more of the
matter. run for Office in primary
and still remain member of the duly
authorized agency inside the party
charged with responsibility and pow
er to fix the rules and regulations
governing that primary.
Concerning Commissioner Rainey's
candidacy The Albany Herald of re-
cent date said:
Editor F.. L. Rainey, OF The
Dawson News. who is serving an
unexpired term as State Prison
Commissioner, will be a candi-
date to succeed himself in the
general primary this summer,
and, with a fine sense of proprie-
~ has rendered his resignation
as a member from the Third
Congressional District OF the
State Democratic Executive Com
mittee Mr. Rainey Is the only
member of the State Prison
Board whose term is now expir-
ing, and he deserves to succeed
10 the full term without opposi-
ton He has made good as
member of the Prison Board, and
better man for the position
would be hard to find.
commissioner Rainey is very popu-
lar all over Georgia, and 1t would be.
perhaps, most hazardous, undertake
| ing to oppose him for election. He
was for long time the head of the
Georgia Weekly Press Association,
| and he undoubtedly would have the
| united backing of that powerful and
effective body, against all corners and
in any fight.
He is a retiring and modest man,
seldom projecting himself into, argu :
ments, but he is a vote etter, all
right! No mistake about that!
He is one South Georgian that
! pretty well all South Georgia swears
! by and stands by!
Thomas G. Jones, OF the law firm
OF Crum & Jones, of Cordele. will be
candidate for Attorney General He
| has issued aneinformal statement to
| this effect. which is to be followed
shortly by a detailed announcement.
Colonel Jones lis one OF the best =
| known lawyers in South Georgia, and
| is the only candidate so far an
! nounced against clifford Walker. of
! Monroe, who already is campaigning
| for the position Of Attorney General
II these two men continue in the
race it looks as If North Georgia
against South Georgia battle is to
| come.
Both men are strong, both are good
lighters and the outcome of the race
J will be more or less doubtful, in al
| probability, until the finish.

more or less disturbing to not few

eide to be quiet, he can be quiet in SO

However, while Little Joe" some

News comes from Washington to

West placed the matter of his re-

urged the Macon man so cordially to
remain that he has consented to do
so, for a time. anyway
Mr. Boifeuillet can be. OF course, OF
more genuine assistance to Senator
West, particularly in winding up Sen
ator Bacon's affairs, than any other

MARKETING WORLDS
GREATEST PROBLEM
WE ARE LONG ON PRODUCTION,
SHORT ON DISTRIBUTION.
BY Peter Radford


The economic distribution OF farm
products is today the worlds greatest
problem and the war, while it has
brought its hardships, has clearly en-
phasized the Importance OF distribu-
tion as a factor in American agricul-
ture and promises to give the farm
ers the cooperation Of the govern
ment and the business men the
solution OF their marketing problem.
This result will, in q measure. COM
pensate us for our war losses. for the
business interests and government
have been in the main assisting al
most exclusively on the production
side OF agriculture. While the depart
ment OF agriculture has been dumping
tons OF literature on the farmer telling
him how to produce. the farmer has
been dumping tons OF products in the
nations garbage can for want OF
market.
The World VIII Never Starve.
At no time since Adam and Eve
were driven from the Garden OF Eden
have the inhabitants Of this world
suffered from lack of production, but
some people have gone hungry from
the day of creation to this good hour
for the lack OF proper distribution.
Slight variations I'm production have
forced a change in diet and one local
ity has felt the pinch OF want, while
another surfeited, but the world as
whole has ever been land OF plenty.
We now have less than one-tenth OF
the tillable land of the earth's surface
under cultivation, and we not only
have this surplus area to draw on but
IL is safe to estimate that in case of
dire necessity one-half the earth's
population could at the present time
knock their living out OF the trees
of the forest, gather 1t from wild
vines and draw 1t from streams. No
one should become alarmed; the
world will never starve.
The consumer has always feared
that the producer would not supply
him and his fright has found express
sion on the statute books OF our states
and nations and the farmer has been
urged to produce recklessly and with
out reference to market, and regard
less OF the demands of the consumer.
Back to the Soil.
The city people have been urging
each other to move back to the farm,
but very few OF them have moved.
We welcome our CITY cousins back to
the soil and this earth's surface con-
tains 16.092. 100000 idle acres OF till
able land where they can make n
living by tickling the earth with a
forked stick. but we do not need them
so far as increasing production is con-
.cerned; we now have ali the producers
we can use. The city man has very
erroneous ideas OF agricultural condi-
tions. The commonly accepted theory
that we are short on production is all
wrong. Our annual increase in pro-
duction far exceeds that OF our in
crease in population.
Glow are automobile caps to be
worn this season."
IL believe on the side at all head

RAILROADS APPEAL
TO PRESIDENT
The Common Carriers Ask for Re-
lief - President Wilson Directs
Attention Of Public to


Their Needs.
The committee of railroad execu-
tives. headed by MIR. Frank Trumbull.
representing thirty-five OF the leading
railroad systems of the nation, recent
iy presented to President Wilson a
memorandum briefly reviewing the diff
hcuities now confronting the railroads
OF the country and asking for the CO.
operation OF the governmental authori-
ties and the public in supporting rail-
road credits and recognizing an emer-
gency which requires that the rail-
roads be given additional revenues.
The memorandum recites that the
European war has resulted in general
depression of business on the Ameri-
can continent and in the disocation
OF credits at home and abroad. With
revenues decreasing and interest rates
increasing the transportation systems
OF the country face y mos. serious
crisis and the memorandum is
strong presentation of the candle
burning at both ends and the periis
that must ultimately attend such a
confiagration when the flames meet
discussion the railroad representa-
tives say i'll part: by reason OF leg.
'slation and regulation by the federal
government and the torty-eight states
acting independently of each other. as
we'll as through the action of a strong
public opinion, railroad expenses in
recent years have vastly increased.
NO criticism is here made OF the gem
eral theory of governmental reguia-
ton. but on the other hand, no in
genulty can relieve the carriers OF ex-
penses created thereby
president Wilson. in Transmitting
the memorandum of the railroad
presidents to the public, character
ICES 1t as "a lucid statement OF plain
truth. The president recognizing
the emergency as extraordinary. con-
timing, said in part:
You ask mo to call the attention
or the country to the imperative need
that railway credits be sustained and
the railroads helped in every possible
way, whether by private cooperative
eHort or by the action. wherever
feasible OF governmental agencies. and
am glad to do so because | think
the need very real
The conference was certainly a
fortunate one for the nation and tho
president is to be congratulated for
opening the gate to new world OF
