STATE AND NATIONAL AID
FOR SWAMP RECLAMATION

The reclamation of swamp lands,
of which there are some seven and
a half million acres in Georgia, is no
longer a matter of merely individual
or local concern. The welfare of the
entire State and the entire Nation is
promoted by converting these useless
and health-menacing areas into pro-
ductive and inviting farms.
If the eradication of malaria were
the only benefit from drainage, that
of itself would be warrant enough
for devoting public funds to this pur-
pose, because the saving of human
energy and life would be indeed price
less. But besides this, the reclama-
ton of these lands would add millions
to the public treasury and well nigh
incalculable sums to agricultural and
industrial wealth. In a highly in
forming article recently published in
The Journal, Prof. S. w. McCallie,
State Geologist for Georgia, declares
at can be demonstrated that the re-
clamation of every acre of swamp
land should increase the States rev.
enue in the form of taxes at least
twenty-fold." This, be it noted, is
an authoritative estimate based upon
scientific surveys. Boys and jungles
which now are unstable at any price
and which are assessed, if at all, at
hardly more than a dollar or so an
acre, would easily fetch from fifty
to a hundred dollars an acre if drain
ed; for it is matter of common
proof that such lands, with their long
ages of accumulated fertility, yield
for above the average crop bounties
when once they are made arabic. In
the South there are approximately
The Marietta journal. (Marietta, Ga.) 1918-1944, 1918-12-27

fifty million acres of overlooked land.
If it is worth under present condi-
tons as much as ten dollars an acre
ian extremely high estimate) it
would be worth hundred after being
reclaimed. That is to say, its value
would increase from five hundred
million to five billion dollars.
These figures are chiefly signifi-
cant in that they suggest, though
family, the vast gains in agricultural
productiveness which are obtainable
through swamp reclamation. 1t is
conservativeiy reckoned that Geor-
gia lands of this nature could be
mode to produce annually two hun
dren and twenty-five million bushels
of corn, and other crops in proper
ton. Prof. McCallie truly observes
that in time of need like the present,
when the nations of the world are
lookin to the United States for food
and our returning soldiers must find
employment, it would seem that in
difference to the vast possibilities of
reclamation would be almost criminal
and that the subject of drainage
would appeal from business stand
point to the citizens and the officials
of the State and National Govern
ments." Where the common good is
so broadly and SO vitality involved, it
is obviously the duty of State and
Nation alike to cooperate with COM
munities and individuals in carrying
out well-advised drainage projects.
Under the existing Georgia law,
interested persons and counties can
organize drainage districts and, with
in the prescribed rules, issue bonds
for meeting the cost of reclamation.
Forty-three such districts have been
formed and exceedingly valuable i'm
provements thereby accomplished.
But the greater part of the swamp
land problem, both in Georgia and
throughout the Union, remains I'M
touched. Hence the Importance of
present efforts to secure more liberal
cooperation from the National Gov
eminent and from the States to the
end that reclamation may be en-
couraged and it's Unreasonable bene-
fits vouch-safed to the American

number of men moving homeward is
no small matter for the railroads

discharged, the War Department will
never be able to keep up with the

STATUS OF NEUTRALS
AT CONFERENCE FIXED

Paris, Dec. 23-The visit of Pre-
mier Romanones, of Spain, to Paris
has brought about a definite under
standing concerning the status of
neutral nations before the peace con-
gress. While no formal decision has
been taken, member of the Ameri-
can peace commission said to the AS
sociated Press today that whenever
question arose affecting the inter
est of any particular neutral nation,
it would have it's opportunity of be-
ing heard, probably through dele
gates.
These delegates, it was added, will
not sit regularly in the congress and
will have no vote on questions be-
tween the allies and the central pow
ers bearing directly on the war but
will be called in when their interests
are affected.
The Marietta journal. (Marietta, Ga.) 1918-1944, 1918-12-27

of this sort of conduct are common
cheats and swindlers, and any Grand
Jury to whom the facts are submit
ted in the State Courts will indict
such persons as such cheats and
swindlers.
You are further advised that if it
can be shown that these false state
ments are made with intent to OBJ
struct the sale by the United States
of such Stamps, the person guilty of
such offense violates the sedition law,
and, upon conviction, is liable to a
fine of not more than 100000, or
Imprisonment for not more than TWEEN
ty COO years or both. In case any
such swindle is attempted by Gov
eminent employee, he is liable to i'm
mediate dismissal from the service,
My attention has also been called
to the fact that in certain communi-
ties in Georgia there is believed to be
an organized effort to induce the pre-
sentation of War Savings Stamps for
redemption, with the purpose of en-
barassing the Government. Any per-
son holding War Savings Stamps is
entitled to redeem the same upon ten
(10) days notice, and without any
discount, Indeed with small addi-
ton of interest; but organized propa-
ganda for the purpose of alarming
the holders of these Stamps and in
ducing them to present them for re-
demption is a crime.
