SOUTH ON WAY TO
GREAT PROSPERITY
By John A. Sleicher, in Leslie's

The whole South is marching on to
undreamed-of prosperity. For the
first time in years it has been receV-
ing remunerative returns for It's pro-
ducts, especially its greatest STAPLE
cotton. Now that the war IS over
and the staple is declining, widely
organized movement starting IN New
Orleans and extending throughout
the South, has been planned to reduce
tba cotton acreage by one-thlrd, ana
the use of fertilizers by one-half-
which is bad for the fertilizer com
nanies-and thus to maintain satlS-
factory price for next years COTTON
cron Some may object to this as re.
s+raint of trade. Governor Allen, Oh
Kansas, says it is trading on the mis-
arv of the world" The South asks
Governor Allen if the Kansas wheat
growers are also in this line OF ouSl-
ness when they indorse the Govern
ment price of 1926 a bushel 1or
wheat, while the Australian market
is half that figure.
But can we blame the cotton plant.
or? The South has been accused Oh
devoting too much attention TO COZ
tom and too little to other products
nj the farm. 1t now proposes to raise
less cotton and more corn, wheat hogS
and cattle. Perhaps our Kansas
friends do not take kindly to tnlS'
I have always wondered why the
Southern farmer did not produce
more of the necessities of life. Leu
him go to it!
The business men Of the South are
now leading the procession. 1hey
are edging off the platform the pro-
fessional politicians who have been
making a living out of the dlscoro
thew have created, and who are more
responsible than any other class Tor
keeping capital away from the goid-
an opportunities the South has otter-
err ever since the war between the
States. The "live wires" in the South
are the chambers of commerce, cot
ton associations and similar bodies.
They are the leaders. If the move
ment to limit cotton production sue
ceeds, it will be because the business
men and bankers in these well-or-
ganized bodies stand behind it. These
men are sick of the kind of politics
that has put the South in wrong
light with the investor The South
is for big business, big prices, big
crops, big harbors and big things gen
orally.

The Victory Loan drive is drawing
to close.
Whatever remains to be done must
be accomplished in the next few days
or the opportunity will be gone for
ever.
\ This Is the last great popular war
loan. 1t is in reality the last chance"
the people Of the Sixth Federal Re-
serve District will have to invest in
the Liberty and Victory issues of Gov
eminent securities. 1t is now or never.
The quota assigned to this district
has been nearly reached But unless
every person who can, even through
a sacrifice of luxuries or comforts, in
vests to their limit it might be fail
.ure. In all past campaigns the South
east has responded nobly 1t must not
fail now in this final drive.
The loan must be success. 1t has
behind it the solemn call of a great
national duty to our soldiers and sail
The Marietta journal. (Marietta, Ga.) 1918-1944, 1919-05-09

ors; the call of the nations honor, and
the imperative call of its duty to the
rest of the world.
An appeal has been sent out from
Headquarters to the workers to put
their shoulder to the wheel during the
remaining days of the drive; to pull
together and push together and wind
up the campaign with huge over
subscription. Some counties are lag
ging behind. Most of the counties VIII
go over. To fail now would leave
blot on the record of the county which
does not reach it's quota. That olot
would remain forever because there
will not be another chance to come
Back"
The crowning work Of patriotism for
this district would be for the people
to make the Victory Loan the greatest
Of all loans-to put every county IN
the district over the top Then we could
take pride in the feeling that we had
'"hnished the course"

WALTON COUNTY GETS
FINE ROAD MACHINERY

The especial good fortune of those
counties securing Federal aid for road
work not only consists in the money
received, it develops, but in the ready
assistance offered by Uncle Sam for
the furtherance Of the work after 1t
has begun.
County Commissioner T. c. Ay-
cock spent Monday in Atlanta, where
he conferred with State Engineer
Neel relative to a large assortment OF
modern road equipment which the
Federal govrnment has assigned TO
Walton county for use on the Fede-
raj highway and on other highways
which it is expected will be approved
later on.
This equipment consists OF trucks
to haul soil, concrete mixers STONE
crushers. and various, tools, mcluu-
inc picks, shovels, scrapes, blankets
and tents and practically every LII
nlement necessary in road work. The
county will receive a generous alio"
ance of this equipment, valued aC
several thousand dollars, thereby saw
ing us a big sum and enabling us
to handle the road work with the
greatest possible speed and facility
through the use o fall modern ma
chinery and implements.
This equipment is only awarded TO
those counties receiving Federal ald
and is almost unlimited in quantity.
The government takes the position
that it is ready to assist those VINO are
willing to help themselves, and the
donation of several million dollars
worth of machinery and tools to the
different states of course means
great deal in the way of road improve
ment.
The first check from the govern
ment applying to the construction Oh
the Federal highway was received
some DAYS ago, and was one OF the
verv first to be sent out IN the state'
Those who doubted that the govern
ment would come across with their
share of the coin are having all
doubt dispelled through the fact that
the Federal authorities are ready ana
anxious to pay their part just as 1aSC
as the work progresses. Ordinary
Garrett accompanied Commissioner
Avcock to Atlanta and to the con-
ference with state highway officials

! RELIGIOUS SURVEY BEING
HELD THROUGHOUT STATE
Movement Under Auspices OF Inter
church Organization BelnE Pushed
Itnpfdty in Many Counties.

The religious and social survey which
Is being conducted throughout the
state OF Nirgints under the direction
OF the interchurch world movement has
been carried to u large number of the
counties OF the State, and arrangements
are being rapidly completed whereby
the entire State will be covered ut an
early date.
This survey is being made with the
cooperation OF all the various Protes-
tant denominations OF the counties. II
Is being handled in each county by !,
specially appointed man from the
data in conference with tho various
drnominationai leaders.
The interchurch world movement
which is conducting the survey, Is an
agency OF al Protestant denominations.
with skilled corps of experts in rural
survey. II Is a movement without ref
erence to church federation or organic
unity. but simply aims at establishing
various denominational bodies in COW
erinS the religious life OF the nation.
The survey which is being made In
Virginia is also heing extended to
ica and also TO the foreign mission
field. 1t is something more than Il
gathering Of religious statistics. for II
embraces many industrial, agricultural,
social and ether features OF general
interest. 1t is the most complete SUR
vey OF any nature ever undertaken by
amy organization IN the country.
The purpose Of the survey is To Sc
cure the definite facts revealing these
conditions and then submit them TO
the churches for definite action. 1t is
believed by the interchurch world
movement that the very reVeiat ton OF
the facts will lead 10 revival OF
religious interest and an intensified
lions for the dissemination of reli-
ious teaching and practice.
