AN OPEN LETTER TO
THE GEORGIA ASSEMBLY

The law makes it crime to destroy
food in order to run up the price of
it.
For whose benefit is Georgia throw
ing away annually the equivalent of
21,528,500 tons Of coal, when we
face a coal famine?
The Municipal League of Georgia
has just addressed a pertinent open
letter to the State Legislature where
two important measures are pending.
Mol more important question is be-
fore the people of Georgia today. The
seriousness of the situation is such,
the suffering from lack of coal is so
inevitable, that they should be enact
ed for the welfare of our people. The
loss of another year would be mex
cusable and appalling in view of
known facts.
Following is a copy of this open
letter:
ITO The Members of the General
Assembly:
Goal is selling at $500 ton and
above. Next winter, it is said, there
will be actual suffering in Georgia
because enough coal will not be 3D.
tainable at any price.
1.-THE equivalent of 81 ,528,5OO tons
of coal, enough to heat every home
and run every factory, cotton gin and
train in Georgia, is being thrown
away every year in our unteveIcped
water lower. The power companies
confess themselves unable to develop
this power at present rates, which are
exorbitant, and if the rates are ad,
vanced the projected additions Will
be only drop in the bucket in COM
parison with the needs.
Because of these facts, the NUM-
cipal League, composed of the leading
cities of Georgia, have by a vote OF
90 to 2 asked the Legislature to pass
House Bills Nos. 929 and $50, which
have been recommended fer passage
by the Committee on Constitutional
Amendments. If these bills are pass
ed at this session of the Legislature
and voted on favorably at the next
general election, at the next session
of the Legislature laws can be passed
which will enable Georgia to give re-
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1920-07-27

lief to her people.
"'The suffering of next winter must
be endured, but the following winter
may see the beginning of relief if the
present Legislature will pass these
bills. If the bills are blocked or de-
feated, it means the loss of another
year and more suffering.
THE only open arguments, other
than personal abuse, that have been
offered to the bills is with reference to
granting authority to municipalities
and to the state to incur debt for the
purpose of developing our public util
tiles. If you will refer to the Acts
of 1918, page 915, you will find that
the language of these bills with ref
erence to mourning debt was largely
copied from the language of the pres
ent constitution with reference to cit
les of over 10000 inhabitants. Prac-
tically the only change is that amend
ment of 1918 empowers the City of
Atlanta to incur unlimited debts for
ALL public purposes, while the bills
proposed by the League limit this
power only to acquiring and develop
ing public utilities but give that right
to all Georgia. Why should Atlanta
have this great privilege and deny a
lesser privilege to the rest of Geor-
gia.
"The amendment of 1918 has not
hurt the sale of Atlanta bonds, and
these amendments, which are more
restricted, will not hurt the credit OF
the municipalities and State of Geor-
gia.
"The enactment of them will re-
lieve suffering. The defeat of them
VIII cause more suffering and more
,oss of money to the people of Geor-
cia, though it will give more money
to the corporations controlled III
other states but holding a monopoly
of the water power OF Georgia.
For the future welfare of our
state. we urge you to use your vote
and influence to secure the passage
of these bills at the present session
of the Legislature. Very truly yours,
"ARCHIBALD BLACKSHEAR,
President Municipal League of Geor-
ga"

WASHINGTON, July 27.-Maybe

HOW SUGAR MADE CUBA
A WORLD Ell DORADO

given number of acres of land to
plant and give them an agreed share
of the sugar they produce.
1.-The next class is composed of the
land-owning farmers, who grow their
own cane and have is ground on
shares, after the fashion of the rural
grist mill. The remainder of the cane
is grown by the owners of the mills
themselves. At some centrals the
administration cane, as that grown
under central management is known,
amount to only per cent of the to-
tai; at others it amounts to 80 per
cent.
even the share farmer. at pre-
war prices, made money. According
to Cuba Before The World the otic-
iai handbook Of the Republic at the
Panama Pacific Exposition when SUI
gar was scilJpg at 2.62 cents a pound,
his share Of the sugar brought him,
on the basis Of twelve sacks to the
acre, return of from SAC to SJ1 per
acre. The return of the planter own
ing MS !anG was from $50 to $61 per
acre. When one remembers thar the
selling price of sugar is from four
to six times as high in 1920 as it was
then, the size of the per-acre income
today is apparent.
Glow much net profit the cane
grower reaps at 1920 prices is hard
to estimate, but that it is large will
appear when the methods of cane
growing are stated. To begin with,
after the first crop the planter does
not have to bother with seed-time for
about ten years. The soil is so deep
and so fertile that one planting pro-
duces ten harvests. Neither does cul-
tivation bother him after the first
season, for the blades stripped from
one crop form a mulch that keeps the
weeds from competing with the next
one.
''Think of the profits that the
American farmer would make out of
corn if he could get ten crops from
one planting, and did not have to
plow nine of them at all to keep
down the weeds?
another item in the low cost of
producing sugar is the cheapness of
the motive power. The cane is hauled
in oX-carts. The oxen live from six
to ten months year on the blades
stripped from the harvested stalks,
and the remainder of the year on sue
culent guinea-grass. Think how pros
porous would be the American farmer
if he could have animal power re-
quiring not a pound of grain to feed
itp'

CUGAR, like shoes, we once took
- for granted. Now procuring
enough for the preserving season may
be problem and sugar "speak7eas-
les" are not uncommon IN lands where
the supply is rationed.
Writing to the National Geographic
society, William Joseph Showalter
says .;o noorlv
doubled and prices more than quad
rupled since 1912, one can readily see
why Cuba is the worlds Ell Dorado OF
1920, and why sugar is. its king.
"The imagination is almost over
powered in attempting to comprehend
the vast proportions of the sugar m
dustry of the island as it exists this
year.
"The cane produced is of SUCH
tremendous volume that a procession
of bull teams four abreast, reaching
around the earth, would be required
to move it. The crop would sut1ce
to build a solid wall around the entire
two thousand miles of the islands
coast-line as high as an ordinary
dwelling house and thick enough for
a file of four men to walk abreast on
it.
''The sugar extracted from this
cane would load a feet of steamers
reaching from Havana to New York,
with a ship for every mile of the
twelve hundred that stretch between
the two ports. The great pyramid of
Cheops, before whose awe-lnsplrlng
proportions millions of people have
stood and gazed in open-mouthed
amazement, remains, after five thous-
and years, unrivaled as monumental
pile; but Cuba's sugar output this
year would make two pyramids, each
outbasing and overlapping Cheops.
"The wealth the outgoing sugar
crop brings in is not less remarkable
in its proportions. Four hundred dol
lars out of a single crop for every
human being who lives on the island
"a sum almost as great as the per
capita wealth produced by all the
farms, all the factories, and all the
mines of the United States
What wonder, then, that Cuba to-
day is land of gold and gems, richer
than Midas ever was, converting
Croesus, by contrast, into beggar!
"Sugar-cane is grown by three
classes of planters in Cuba. Per-
haps the major part of the crop is
grown by share farmers, or 'colonas,'
as they are called. The owners of
the sugar-mills furnish them with a
