BY BOARD or TRADE
ENJOYABLE AFFAIR

than was the case with California
What we need in the SOUTH" said
the speaker, "and what they have us
beaten on in California. is energy
Mr.. Pegram promised to come to
Brunswick whenever invited and his
popularity among the members was
attested by the applause accorded him
when he took his seat
E. H. Shaw, assistant traffic mana
ger of the Southern, discussed in a
really able manner the interesting
problems of equalizing the flow of
freight traffic at all of the southern
ports i'll general ana at the port of
Brunswick in particular. He stressed
the fact that ten times as much
freight was shipped out of Brunswick
for distribution than came in the other
direction, and argued that the bal
ancing of this freight movement
meant the building of a great seaport
city here
This concluded the list of speakers
and President Butts in conclusion
made an interesting talk on traffic
and other conditions at Brunswick, ex-
pressing the. hope that our people
would benefit from the suggestion
made by various speakers made di-
ring the evening. The occasion last
night was the first one at which Pres
ident Butts has presided as toastmas-
ter and it must be stated that he sue
ceeded in the task admirably, and at
the conclusion of the evenings pro-
gram he was warmly congratulated
by members of the board generally.
A pleasing feature of the evening
was a characteristic telegram receiv-
ed from Assistant General Manager B.
L. F"gg, of the A, B. & A. Mr. Bugg
is a great friend of Brunswick and he
was really conspicous last night be-
cause of his absence. After the diners
had been seated a telegram came from
him expressing regret, and in a truly

President Harrison in his special
car returns to Washington this morn

last night he said he intended to come
to Brunswick again, and as far as was
in his power to do so he was going
to help the energetic people of this
city to builo a great seaport here.

LOCAL PEOPLE
DESIRE PLACE
Of INSPECTOR
NUMBER OF APPLICANTS ARE
MAKING FIGHT FOR NEW
POSITION CREATED IN THE
FISH AND OYSTER BILL.

Quite an interesting little contest
has developed here for position
which has not yet been created. but
which is likely to be made by the
house of representatives at any time.
for as soon as that body passes the
bill which has already been acted up
on by the senate, and as soon as the
governor attaches his signature, It
will become a law.
The position is in connection with
the new fish and game bill, passed by
the senate last week, and which pro-
videS, among other things, for three
inspectors or coast patrolmer One of
Gated at Savannah, another at Bruins
wick and the third at st. Marys, and
for the local place there are already
three or four announced applicants,
while equally as many people. while
they have not made fight for the
position, have their heags hoisted
nigh.
i chose who are actively at work for
the place are J.. A. Miller, j. w. Alb.
bott and Leon Roberts, whilel it was
stated yesterday that one or two 9th
ers weer seeking the position These
three, however, have been at work for
some time. Petitions have been CIR
Iculated generally among the people OF
the city and practically all leading
people have endorsed one or two 9TH
er of the appicantS.
The appointment is to be made by
State Game Commissioner Arrow,
and it has been stated, however, that
before making the appointment com
missioner Arrow expects to pay a
personal visit to the city and look
thoroughly into the matter
The position is a very good one,
paying 81. 200 annually, allows an as
sistant and a launch to be used in the
work. The duties of the inspectors
are to patrol the Georgia coast and
see that the new fish and oyster laws
are rigidly enforced

STRONG SOUTHEAST WIND
DID SOME DAMAGE HERE
Fences and Signs Blown Down
and Wires Are Wrecked.

A strong southeast wind, which
started to blow at an early hour yes
terday morning and continued at in
tervals throughout the day did some
little damage in and about the city,
though at no time did the gale reach
an alarming stage. However, between
l and 4 o'clock in the afternoon the
wind blew at quite a high velocity
and, with storm signals being dis
played, there was considerable un-
easiness.
The extent of the damage in Bruins
wick was the blowing down of a
number of fences, signboards, etc.
The telephone and telegraph compa-
MES suffered to some extent, and
for four or five hours yesterday
Brunswick was cut off from the out
side world, as neither of the telegraph
offices or the telephone company had
an outside connection. The Western
Union wires were up and working
again by 7 O'Clock last night.

Mrs. Bolinger declared that she
had m,de the biggest sacrifice that
a mother could make and believes
that she did right.
The Bollinger baby was defective
mite whose mother on professional
advice decided ii should not undergo
an operation which probably would
save its life.
The question of the propriety of sac
rificing the unpromising spark of life
in the infant, that it might not grow
up burden to itself and a possible
menace to society, was the subject OF
widespread discussion

ing large imports, thus providing car
goes in both directions. This propo-
sition that large imports are essen,
tial to building up large exports is
supported by statistics, On account
of the enormous export of war mate
rials the figures for the last fiscal
year were abnormal. Going back to
the previous year we find that the
total foreign commerce of the GUS
toms district of New York amounted
to S1,904 ,926, 1854 of which 50 per cent
consisted of imports and As per cent
of exports. The commerce of the Gus
toms district of Massachusetts
amounted to 1925, ,631 ISL, of which II
per cent were imports and 80 per cent
exports. The commerce of the GUS
toms district of Philadelphia amount
ed to $161 ,665, 1926, of which 60 per
cent were imports and 40 per cent ex-
ports. The commerce of the customs
district of San Francisco amounted to
$3.50 4S5 $50, of which 81 per cent
were imports and 40 per cent exports.
Turning to the south we find that the
combined commerce of all of the gulf
ports amounted to $685., 6,759, ,696, of
which 18 per cent were imports and
82 per cent were exports, and the
commerce of the customs district of
Georgia, including Brunswick, amount
ed to $116,864 ,657, of which only five
per cent were imports and 95 per
cent were exports.
/ A glance at these figures reveals
one of the greatest difficulties in de-
veloping export business through
southern ports 1t is obvious that Bos-
ton, New York and Philadelphia, with
imports in excess of exports, will,
under normal conditions, have an ex-
cess of outbound cargo space and will
have ships bidding for cargoes. This
gives them decided advantage over
Georgia ports where exports are 19
times greater than imports, meaning
that large proportion of the ships
which carry exports from Georgia
ports must come here empty or with
only partial cargoes. 1t follows that
if exports through the port Of Bruins
wick are to be substantially increas-
ed your imports from the countries to
which you export must also be in
creased In this way foreign and do
mestic commerce will be linked to-
gether and this port will become
funnel through which trade will flow
in both directions.
The problem of a seaport commun-
ity seeking to build up foreign trade
is even more complex than that of a
manufacturer who wants to sell his
products abroad The latter must find
his market and develop his selling
agency The question Of how he shall
ship is usually one Of his minor prob
lens. A southern manufacturer of
cotton goods with a market in South
America might prefer, for reasons OF
sentiment or local patriotism, to ship
| through Brunswick, but even if he and
other southern manufacturers should
| be in a position to furnish regular
cargoes for steamer line through
Brunswick it would be difficult to in
terest ship owners in establishing
regular service unless they could be
sure Of return cargoes. Hence it is
that articles produced in the south
are alrgely exported through north
ern ports served by steamers which
carry cargoes in both directions and
/ the southern seaport wishing to build
up foreign commerce can do so on

Hawser Parted.

The Killeena, which had been anch-
ored off the quarantine station for
the past two or three days ready for
sea, sailed early yesterday morning in
tow Of the tug Inca, despite the fact
that the captain was urged not to sail as
strong wind was blowing at the time,
but it was not considered dangerous
by him. When near the beyy buoy
however, the bark's ,.awser, by which
the tug was towing it, parted and
the bark went adrift. The anchor
was quickly ordered lowered, and in
few minutes the crew had it over
board, but high sea was rolling and
the wind had increased in velocity,
and the anchor would not hold. 1t
was dragged, the chain catching in
buoy, and tearing it away from it's
moorings Every effort was made to
save the bark before she drifted on
the breakers. The Inca was helpless,
however. as it was impossible to get
another line out to her so rough was
the sea, and in very short time the
big bark had gone high ana dry on
the North Breakers.

Crew Is Rescued.

The Inca remained by the bark du-
ring the entire day, but there was no
chance to render any assistance. In
fact the tug could not get within any
close distance of the bark. The crew
worked faithfully and IL was not un-
til there were three or four feet of
water in the bark before the first man
left. A lifeboat was placed overheard
and three of TIE crew started out for
ST. Simon, pulling through a rough
sea distance Of seven miles. Later
in the day these three men came to
the city.
On board the Inca when she came
in late yesterday afternoon were the
remaining members Of the crew, who
told some thrilling stories Of their
escape from the vessel One or two
of them jumped overheard and were
picked up by lifeboats containing 9th
er members. One of the crew,
Swede, AXE Mobery by name, who
deserted his ship several days ago and
was arrested at Jesup, was handcuff-
ed at dhe time the bark went ashore.

Captain Still Aboard.

Captain O. Steen is the lone person
aboard the bark at present. He stout
ly refused to leave his ship during tic
en,ire day, and when in the after
noon be consented TO abandon the
ship, it was impossible to rescue him
The mate in a lifeboat with two
members Of the crew made a futile
effort to reach him, but they were al
most dashed to death by the high seas,
and were compelled to leave without
the captain. 1t is not thought, how
ever, that he is in any great danger
as the Kill ena is high and dry The
Inca will leave for the scene of the
wreck again this morning at daylight,
carrying a small yawl for the purpose
of rescuing the captain.
The Killeena is a vessel of 750 tons
and carries a crew of ten men. She
was built some eight or ten years
ago and has made number Of trips
to this country. 1t is understood that
she is pretty well insured, while it is
stated that the cargo of 5000 barrels
of rosin is fully covered by insurance.
