More than 10000 employees of
Swift & Company are today vested
with part ownership in the pack

Just been made of the results that
came of gigantic profit sharing
plan recently offered by the com
pany to it's people. The avidity
with which workers, from label
stickers to managers, seized the op-
portunity to become partners in
the business. is nothing short of a
sensation at the company's head
quarters in Chicago.
So great was the demand for
shares from employees that the
company set aside sufficient stock
to take care of such employees as are
in the army and navy and who will
be back within the next few
months.
"We are pleased" declared F. S.
Hayward, secretary OF the COM
pany, at what we look on as vote
of confidence. on the part OF our
employees. Their response to our
offer has been fairly amazing. |

which it had long sought-to offer
shares to employees at par. Accord

we're opened last May on the fol.

Each employe earning up to $40 a
week was allowed to purchase one

The unexpected demand for
shares has caused the company to
create special department to
handle the applications. More
than $500 of the new shareholders
are women. Subscriptions have
been received from employees at all
of the plants Of the company and
also from each of the 400 towns

Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1919-07-24
t. By w. TOM VIM
Pres. Georgia State Automobile Assn.

Georgia can never profit and the
people of our state can never enjoy
the advantages of real state wide
system of hard surfaced, all the year
round roads, until the Legislature
passes certain definite legislation, de-
signed for the express purpose of en-
abling the state itself to Use its own
funds, together with the Federal Aid
money in aiding large majority Of
the counties in a substantial financial
way. There are approximately one
hundred counties in Georgia, by rea-
son of small taxable values that can
not issue sufficient bonds to build one
main road with a durable type of
pavement, and the current tax income
is hardly sufficient to drag the main
roads few times each year.
1t is highly conmendable on the
part of those more populous and
weather. counties that have already
voted to construct a more permanent
type of road for their main arteries.
1t is to be hoped that many others
will follow the splendid example of
the tWenty-six counties that have
voted overwhelmingly for bonds.
Legislation will be submitted at the
coming session that if enacted in to
law, will permit the state ultimately
to take-over many Of these roads to
be built from this bond money, speci-
fy them as a part Of the State system,
and reimburse the counties or provide
for the DrinciDal and interest to ma
ture the bonds.
But. while this is making progress,
and perhaps fifty counties will vote
bonds for their main roads during the
present year, it is not sufficient and
we cannot obtain a complete system,
reaching every county seat IN the
state by the means Of bonds.
What is the quickest and best way
to get a complete county seat system !?
First Of all, remedial legislation.
By all means the Legislature should
at the coming session, reorganize the
State Highway Department, putting
same on a practical working basis,
eliminating as far as possible all po-
litica1 influences and questions of pat
ronage or anything that smacks OF
same
The new Highway Commission
should BY all means elect the State
Highway Engineer and hold him re-
sponsible for the success or failure OF
the engineering or technical end of
the Department. This is of extreme
importance that thoroughly compe-
tent and skilled engineer, of the high
est honesty and integrity, should be
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1919-07-24

selected. He should be permitted to
appoint, with the approval of the
Highway Commission al of his as
sistants, in order to get the best
results. ~~---'-s--~.
Now how can we get it? After
study of the question and discussions
with many of the most prominent
road builders and many county COM
missioners and good roads advocates
generally throughout the state, I
know of but one ansWeE that offers
a feasible plan: Increase the Motor
Vehicle l;~enses to an average of $40
per car thereby creating a fund of
$2,000,000 per annum, turn this over
to the newly created Highway De
partment to be used by them in sup
plementing the Federal Aid funds,
the total of the two funds amounting
to about $4,500000 per annum. Let
the Highway Department use this
money during 1920 and 1921 in aiding
the poorer counties that are not fipan-
cially in position to build permanent
roads, so that the bad stretches will
be paved, thus giving the state a com
pleted system.
Like the weak link in the chain, the
bad stretch of Qroad in every other
county will be weak part of a state
system, and to that extent retatd
progress, discourage travel and con-
tinue to make it impossible to market,
1T the proper time, thousands of dol
AIRS worth of farm products that now
70 to waste, as shown by the Govern
ment reports.
Georgia is the best state in the
Southeast 1t is the richest state, in
agriculture, livestock and in many
resources. 1t should lead the way
for all the Southeastern States. It
can do no greater or profitable thing
at the coming session than to pass
adequate highway legislation and if |
know the sentiment of the people, as
expressed in at least ia counties Wis
tied in the interest of better roads, I
believe this subject is uppermost in
the minds of our citizens.

funds to be obtained? By increasing
the present automobile fee, as pro-
posed by the special Legislative Com
mittee, a sufficient amount will be
raised to match the amount Of two
million annually now being appropri-
ated by the Federal Government.
The provision in this bill for re-
funding to the counties the amount
expended in the paving of any road
which would be included in this State
system is a wise one, as in this way
county may, by issuing bonds, supply
the necessary money for Immediately
constructing the road and thereby in
sure the early completion of the en-
tire system by simply advancing the
county's credit to the State and in this
way insuring the same results as a
State Bond issue, which requires first
a constitutional amendment and ne
cessitates an enforced delay of at
least two years.
The Legislature, by enacting the
bills as proposed by the majority
committee, will Immediately increase
the automobile fee, thereby providing
over Two Million dollars and at the
same time give authority to the High
way Department to lay out a system
of inter-county highways and begin
the construction OF same. In another
