Editor Times-Recorder:

Editor Times Recorder:
When the sad news was flashed to
north Georgia, Saturday morning, that
Col. J. W. Furlow had passed away,
was almost overwhelmed with d
sense of personal loss such as words
strive in vain to express.
Some three years ago I met Col
onel Furlow for the first time. At
once 1 realized that 1 was in the pres
ence of a big-hearted whole-souled
man.
Colonel Furlow was the friend of
young men. Because he encouraged
and helped young men whom 1 love,
and because they, in turn, loved and
appreciated him, l was glad to call
him friend, and l shall ever hold his
memory sacred.
One of the most beautiful pieces of
newspaper writing l have ever seen
was a sketch of the life, death and
funeral of little Americas girl. l
am now glad, indeed, that wrote him,
at the time and told him OF his clear,
forceful, beautiful style.
Thackaray's definition of a gentle
man is a fitting description of Colonel
Furlow: He was honest, gentle, gen
erous, brave and wise, and, possess
ing all these characteristics, he eX-
ercised them in the most graceful out
ward manner. Respectfully,

ANOTHER WEEK OF
DEVELOPMENT IN DIXIE

BALTIMODE, Md, Jan. 3.-The hol-
iday season has interfered but little
with Southern industrial activity,
numerous important enterprises Of a
varied character having been announc-
ed during the week in reports to the
Manufacturers Record from all parts
of the South The very important an
nouncement is made through an in
terview with James B. Duke that the
Southern Electro-Chemical Co., at
Great Falls, S. c., is now ready to be-
gin the manufacture of nitric acid
from the nitrogen of the air. Opera
tons will be started at once and the
product will be sold at cheaper price
than the ordinary nitric acid of COM
mercce. An interesting announce
ment was that of the Wheeling old
& Foundry Co., Wheeling, w. Va,
which obtained an order for a portion
Of the cast-iron tunnel segments for
the East River tunnel at New York. 1t
is said to amount to $500 tons, cost
ing between 100000 and 100000. An
important industry was secured for
Savannah the Savannah Sugar Rein
ing Co. having decided upon a CAPT
talization of $3,5O0,0OO to build a re-
fiery with annual capacity 5000 bar
rels of sugar, well-known manufac-
turers of beet sugar and New York
bankers being in control of the enter
prise.
The numerous reports also include
the wololwing announcements:
Pierce Oil Corporation, St. Louis,
will expend 100000 to build plant at
Tulsa, Okllla., with daily capacity $50
tons of paraff1n and kindred products.
Pulaski Iron Ca. Pulaski, Va, will
dismantle its iron furnace, in blast for
27 years, and replace it by construc-
ing stack of larger capacity.
Verona Company, Glover, S. c., in
coporated with 100000 capital to build
mill for spinning fine cotton yarns.
Buffalo Coal Co. and Mary Helen
Coal Corporation, both of Crew, Va,
incorporated with capitalization of
100000 and 100000, respectively, for
the development of Virginia coal prop
critics.

Figures Shov That Auto Hos
Started On A Decrease With
Accidents Happening To 1t

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 3.-Is the
deadliness of the automobile increas-
ing or decreasing?
This question seems to be answered
i'll a |cry conclusive manner by the
bureau Of the census, in making pun
lie some preliminary mortality stain
tics for the year 1914, which indicate
that during the five years from 1909 to
1914 the number of automobiles in use
i'll the United States increased more
than twice as rapidly as the number of
fatalities caused by them.
At the close of 1909, according to
figures compiled by the National Auto
mobile Chamber of Commerce, of New
York City, from state registration re-
ports, due allowance being made for
duplicate registrations, the number Of
automobiles in ushe in the United
States was approximately 100000; by
the close Of 1913 it had risen to 1870.
600, and year later, at the end Of
1914, it was 100000.
In the meantime the number of
deaths due to automobile accidents and
injuries increased from 632 in the
Geath-registration area in 1909, con-
tanning Sc per cent. of the population
Of the United States, to 1923 in the
same area in 1909, containing Sc per
cent Of the population of the United
States, to 1923 in the same area in
1914; and the increase from 1913 to
1914, for the registration area as CON
stituted in 1913, then containing 6j
per cent, of the population of the coun-
try, was from 2,4SS to 2,795.
Thus a five-year increase of 775 per
cent.-accepting as reliable the fig
ures compiled by the National Auto
mobile Chamber of Commerce-in
number of machines has been accom-

panied by an increase of 315 per cent.
in automobile matalities, and a one
year increase of SO per cent. in number
OF machines has been accompanies by
an increase of u per cent in fatali-
ties.
Perhaps a more reliable comparison
from the statistician' point of view
can be made between the increase in
number of automobiles in use and the
increase in the rate per 100000 popu-
lation for deaths caused by them. This
is because, with given number c., I'D
chimes in use in given area, the fatal
tiles due to them will tend to be pro-
portional to the population of that
area. When the comparison is made on
this basis, it appears that a five-year
increase of rs per cent. in number
machines has been accompanied by an
increase of 25S per cent.-from IL
to 4.3 per 100000 population-in the
death rate resulting from automobile
fatalities. Similarly, a one-year in
crease of SO per cent in number Of
automobiles has taken place along with
an increase Of only 10 per cent-from
SO to AZ per 1OO,0OO-in the death rate
charged to them.
One cause of this proportional de-
crease in the destructiveness of the
automobile is undoubtedly to be found
in a reduction in average annual mile
age per machine; but, after due weight
is given this factor, and a suitable
margin is allowed for possible error
resulting from inaccuracy in the esti-
mated portion of the automobile sta
ustics, the figures still appear to fur
nish ample Justification for the conclu-
sion that the automobile today is being
driven with more care and more re-
gard for public safety than it was a few
years ago.

When the final word was said yes
terday and the earth accepted the
body of ]. w. Furlow, all that was
mortal of man long identified with
the city of Americas disappeared from
the activities of life.
He will not, however, be seen for
gotten. His familiar figure will be
missed from his accustomed haunts,
his genial smile will not greet friend
and acquaintance on the streets or
from behind the desk in the Times
Recorder office, from his long connec-
ton with with he was widely known.
The community his suffered a loss,
because this man was a prominent
link in the chain that carries back to
earlier years a memory of the city's
affairs which are unfamiliar to those
who have more recently entered the
activities of business life here. Moth
ing that we can say here will add or
detract from the esteem with which he
vas regarded by his friends and ac-
quaintances. Peace to his ashes.

Mr.. Furlow was very fond of the
paragraphs which appeared in this
column and always displayed a keen
interest in the editorial page, al
though he himself would never write
for it, Almost daily would he bring

Mr.. Furlow had valuable collec-

The following poem was his choice
of all, and many times in the quiet
hours of night when we talked of
things, affairs-and men, he would
read this and thrill with that love
which has made him a universally be-
loved man:
Just to be near you in the quietude
OF trysting twilights gentle interlude!
To paint soul-pictures, when the
sleep sun
If weary of the course which he has
run,
OF that sweet wonderland below,
Which it is mine, despite all cares,
to know,
When l remember that the purpling
gloam
Shall bring each footstep closer you
and home!
Just to feel sure that someone waits
to press
These upturned lips in beart-born
tenderness
To realize two eyes may smile away
The all of grief that may have dim
med theday!
To contemplate the aftermath of
strife,
When two arms crush me close; and,
how this life
Shall seem that heaven, in its JOY
supreme,
CT which, in aeons gone, l used to
dream!
lust to be near you when the world is
still
To share your calm, your hopeful
ness, your thrill!
