CARD FROM E. M. DYER.
To the Citizens of Cobb County:

ing me with a breach of faith with
the people in that / promised to pub
i'sh monthly reports of the countys
finances and have not done So
If my accuscrs will read ny card
IN which they claim this promise was
made they VII find | made no such
promise. did promise to make reg
ular, Lot Monthly, reports, and to
keep Tbe lryre informed as to the
iNanrla! condition of the county,
and if my critics will examine the
issues of the Marietta Journal for
March 26, June II, Aug 6, and Nov.
%, with half the assiduity with
which they are seeking to discredit
ne they will find reports from this
office published
It may be objected to these re-
ports that they do not give the finan-
cial condition of the County.

l certainly would have done so had
l not found that commissioners were
arranging to do this themselves. At
the first meeting of the board in 1918
they employed an auditor to go over
the books Of the county and to make
statement of the financial condi-
ton. His report was published ana
gave a complete statement of the e.
nancial condition of the county up
TO March 81, 1915. The Clerk of the
Board, Mr. p. -. McCIaskcy. has
since then made three reports as to
the countys financial condition. 7
have furnished Mr. McCleskey with
data and assisted in getting up these
reports but they have appeared over
his signature and not mine
| have believed that what the
people wished to know was the true
condition Of the countys finances
and that they were not particular
from what source they derived their
information 50 long as they could
trust it as reliable.
From what one or two parties have
said to me | judge that what they
wished me to do was to publish a
list of warrants issued monthly by
the commissioners court.
If these warrants should be pub.
lished, it is manifestly the duty OF
the commissioners and not the treas
urer to publish them. For me to do
at the same time treat other officials
and discourteous to the commission
ers, besides the law does not requir,
it and to do so would incur a very
heavy expense.
| have tried to perform my duties
with faithfulness to the people and
at the same time treat other officers
with respect and due consideration.
When the people of the county
know, as | think they will. how very
earnestly | have sought to discharge
the duties of my office with a view
TO their welfare, they will not, | be
lieve, be misled by few disgruntled
distractors who have it in for me for
no other reason that l am aware of.
than that the people have seen fit to
intrust me with the office.

WAR TEACHES HOW
TO KEEP POTATOES
German Municipality Finds
That Fresh Air is the
Thing Needed.
tBy Associated Press)

COLOGNE, Nov 22. Cologne at
present possesses 216 potato storage
houses, the largest Of which is in a
part OF the older Notifications of the
city. None Of the PIG were construct.
ed according to their present specifi.
cations until the city had learned
costly lesson In 1914, lesson that cost
just about an even third OF all its avail.
able storage potatoes.
In that year, as now, the potatoes
were put away, according to grades in
lots Of about 500 hundredweight. In
evttably they began to rot because
there had not been made the proper
provision for air. and before the dam.
age in the various cellars had been
checked 80 per cent. on the supply
was spoiled. The loss was hard 10
bear, and set Cologne to work immedi.
ately to invent some new kind of stor.
age methods.
This was achieved by the construc.
ton in each storage room OF a series
OF wooden conduits running along the
floor from each wall to the wall oppo.
site. These conduits are made of
strips of lath or thin wood. some two
inches apart. The CONDUIT itself is
about eight inches square. Standing
upright at the juncture Of each set OF
conduits Is a third.
The potatoes are then piled in on
top OF the conduits. to the height of
the uprights. The air can pass free.
ly underneath the potatoes along the
floor and among them through the up.
right conduits, and can escape and
permeate the potatoes through the
wide gaps between the laths. This
simple expedient, Cologne has found,
has reduced the loss from 30 to IL per
cent.
The city kitchen. the evaporation
plant. the potato storage system and
the refuse transformation plant all
have their separate managers. The
whole combined institution, however,
is under the direction of Director
Adolphs OF the Cologne street clean.
